KABOOM!!!

CRASH!!!

RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

A wide area of about a kilometer in radius turned to dust as a ball of fire rose up in the sky making a shape of a mushroom cloud. The force of the devastation spreads forth towards the whole area toppling almost half of all the trees in the huge island.

Dust and debris are flying everywhere, and the heat that was produced by the blast can be felt throughout the whole island. Then after a long time, the dust started to settle down.

On the ground not far from the sole mountain in the middle of the island lay a mangled body of the once ferocious dragon that rampages not too long ago. Although almost half of its body was wrecked it still holds to its dear life. But looking at its state it would take it a long time before it could recover to its former majestic state.

Growl…

"I… I didn't think… that… that human would be… be crazy enough to… to do that…" the dragon said under its breath.

With heavy breathing and pain all over its body, the underworld dragon Mok Dong felt too weak to continue moving. As a nascent realm cultivator, and a dragon Mok Dong is not that easy to kill. The sure way is to separate its head from its body. But the wound it received this time is really huge and almost fatal, so it decided to rest. It was about to close its eyes so that it could recover from its wound, but then all of a sudden it felt something. So it quickly turns its head and looks at a treetop and there it saw something that caused its gigantic heart to panic.

For on top of a tree stood the person it did not expect to see, the person it now begins to fear, and the person it hated so much. A young man wearing an article of black uncommon clothing, which seem to spell doom to anyone who sees him, Shin Jiao.

"You… You should... have... died! This is... impossible!" Mok Dong howled as it wanted to get up and bit Shin Jiao into pieces.

But half of its body is all over the place, it only has its front legs and half of its stomach. Below its stomach is a gory scene where some of its inner organs are shattered and shredded with its hind legs and tale already gone somewhere. The only thing it can do is to send a glare with its remaining eye at Shin Jiao.

"Haha! You are really just a beast. Do you think I would fall for my own trap?" Shin Jiao sneered with a mocking voice as he looks at the messy state of the once-proud dragon.

"A t...trap! It was... all... just a trap!" Mok Dong's mind was in disarray.

Then it recalled the face of Shin Jiao before its tail fell on top of his body. At that time it suddenly felt some dread inside of it. But because of its pride and the feeling of winning against the mortal, its mind was clouded. Now it knows why the human was grinning at that time, and now it was too late.

Shin Jiao actually created a holographic projection using mirror transmission rune. Since it was hard for him to control the spiritual Qi and natural elements in this area. He used technology, the good old airwave signal, to transmit a short wave signal to a digitally projected imager with rune technology. This made Shin Jiao appear to be present in the tree with his bloody body. If only Mok Dong looked closer he would notice that although Shin Jiao's body is full of blood, there are no wounds in it.


Shin Jiao smile is like an insult to Mok Dong and wanted to really destroy the human, but with its state, it suddenly feels hopeless.

"Let's end this, shall we? Beast." Shin Jiao said as he flew to another tree near Mok Dong's huge body.

Shin Jiao held the black wakizashi sword with both hands and confidently look at the huge beast in front of him. The ground it is now laying is filled with blood while some of its inner organs can be seen all over. But the thing that Shin Jiao was curious is that the wounds are slowly closing visible to the naked eye. And the blood seems to have almost stopped flowing, though it may be that the wound is cauterized by the fire after it was blasted apart. Judging from the speed that the wound is closing Shin Jiao estimated that Mok Dong would recover after a few months.

But of course, Shin Jiao would not let it recover and become a headache once more.

Seeing that the human is about to end its life Mok Dong seem to have given up and just closed its eyes waiting for its death. As it breathes slowly Shin Jiao could see that it is trying to calm itself down as if it has really given up on fighting.

So Shin Jiao immediately jumped up and prepare to completely cut its head apart. His goal is to first pierce the neck and then he would exert some energy to make the sword slide to the side. This way he would cut its throat open and then go back up to finish the other side.

With this in mind, Shin Jiao adjusted himself in mid-air. But to his surprise, Mok Dong suddenly opened its eyes and immediately whisked one of its long whiskers like a whip. This made Shin Jiao unable to evade as the whip-like whisker hit his body. But before he could be sent flying he quickly took out his gun and fired a full clip hitting Mok Dong's other eye blinding him completely.

Shin Jiao was a little regretting for not being too cautious enough as his body was thrown out like a cannonball while he spews a couple of mouthful of blood while flying towards the throat of the volcano.

Feeling once again a huge amount of pain as he felt like all his inner organs have shifted. Shin Jiao almost passed out but fought against it. He needs to be conscious to prevent himself from falling to his death.

CRASH!!!

Shin Jiao suddenly feel his body hitting something really hard and become stuck. The heatwave from that place is something that can take out one's breath away. Shin Jiao is now feeling his whole body aching to the bones; it's as if all parts in his body are broken. Luckily the effect of the serum is still in effect making his whole body recover faster.

After around five minutes Shin Jiao can now move albeit still painful but enough for him to get out of the human-shaped crevice that he fell into. Upon standing up, he noticed that below him is a small cave and inside it, there seems to be something shining in a pale yellow.

He cautiously walks inside the cave, if he can use his goggles at this time he would not worry about this, but since the goggles' function in this place is not accurate he just relied on his own short-range spiritual sense. The cave is not that deep as after walking for about ten minutes Shin Jiao finally saw a crystal-like object floating in the middle of a trigram formation.

"This is a control array with some advance… no very advance restriction and defensive array. Wait a minute… this is the thing that controls this world." Shin Jiao's eyes are shining upon seeing the crystal in front of him.

"If I can control this formation arrays then I will be the overlord and god of this small world. This is nice… hehe… I guess my luck today ain't that bad eh." Shin Jiao muttered as he smiled with interest.

His mind began churning as information began to flow like water while he deciphers the array formation in front of him. Though the formation is truly a complex one still it's not that hard for him to break. From what he learns from Gubu combined with his old knowledge from Earth he can now easily deduce the main function of the array. But then all of a sudden he was hit with a problem.

"This thing needs a power source... a truly huge one. Where does it…" then as if struck with a realization Shin Jiao's eyes turn towards the lava flowing outside.

"To control this formation I need to give it a power boost equal to what it is using now… Sigh… I guess my BARRETT will have to wait." Shin Jiao said with a dejected look as he took out a fist-size black ore.

Shin Jiao then began to carve a rune pattern on the surface of the black stone. Then he took it a little bit farther by making a power core containment field around the black ore, making it generate power efficiently without any energy waste. After doing this Shin Jiao put the newly crafted power core beside the array formation and connected it to the trigram. As if bursting a bubble, the defenses deactivated with a sound akin to an engine being turned off.

Seeing the floating crystal Shin Jiao had a smile on his face. Then he slowly approached it and extended his spiritual sense towards the crystal, but when his spiritual sense touches the surface of the crystal. Shin Jiao's consciousness becomes muddled as if he suddenly went on a roller coaster ride through space and time.

Before Shin Jiao could react he suddenly saw a strange scene. He can see the space where countless stars, planets, and galaxies are brimming with light. Then Shin Jiao saw multiple giant creatures and humans as big as a planet facing each other as if broiled in a war. Then all of a sudden a streak of light coming from the humans appear and inside that light, a figure of a young man followed by a young woman materialized. With the lift of a hand from the young man, every human lifted their weapons preparing to attack.

Seeing the humans lifting their weapons the beast roared in furiously and without a word charges towards the human army. As the two forces clashed, millions of worlds and stars were destroyed. Then in the apex of the war, Shin Jiao noticed a beast swiftly killing a lot of humans even beast who got in its way. This beast is black in color and seems to possess no loyalty since it also kills its own kind especially snake type and dragon-type beast. The beast is like an ostrich covered in black feather. It would carelessly go around the battlefield without any care and every beast or man it would face would surely die.

"That is one absurd bird; I wonder what it's called?" Shin Jiao thought to himself as he carefully watches the black flightless bird in front of him.

Seeing the nonchalant way the bird roaming the battleground, Shin Jiao felt a sense of awe. Then all of a sudden Shin Jiao noticed that space began to distort and the battle suddenly came to a halt. Every creature in that area noticed that something is wrong. Then all of a sudden the young man which seems to be the leader of the humans signaled his hand to retreat as he himself sudden flew in a streak of light. But then all of a sudden space seems to be locked as the young man wasn't able to escape.

A loud rumble can be heard as a black hole appears followed by a lot of tear in the space. This made everyone panic as each tried to scamper out of this particular space they are in. But none was able to escape; the massive vortex sucks everything inside it tearing everyone to shreds as they enter. It's like a space meat grinder tearing those beings that could be considered as gods. Even the blackbird was not able to escape as it too turned to shred. But before it could fully die a tiny speck suddenly flew out of its body and entered the black hole.

Then Shin Jiao saw that speck of light flew in space and enters a really huge blue planet. Shin Jiao thought it was earth but judging from the size of the planet it's far too huge compared to earth. Maybe it's as big as the sun itself or maybe even bigger.

As the small ball of light fell into the planet a massive beast sudden rose into the air and intercepted it. Shin Jiao actually recognized who this beast it, it was Mok Dong the underworld dragon.

Then suddenly Shin Jiao blink his eyes regaining his consciousness, then information about the crystal flows into Shin Jiao's mind as he learned on how he can control this world temporarily. Then he also learned that the spirit of the blackbird is actually the child Lemy.

Mok Dong is actually trying to kill Lemy because it thinks that once Lemy is dead it can control the small world. But it also has some doubt as it tries to forcefully control the world by breaking the formation but to no avail.

"Hehe, Mok Dong is truly pitiful. It actually wanted to control this place so bad that it started to play make-believe god with itself. Haha… Geez. I guess because it thinks that it's already powerful it wanted its own domain. It really is a pitiful creature." Shin Jiao said with a look of understanding in his eyes.

But since Mok Dong tried to kill him, though he pities it Shin Jiao is not that stupid to spare the life of a level 6 dragon which has the potential to even destroy towns and cities once it got out. So without another word Shin Jiao inserted his full concentration and controlled the small world. He didn't want to refine it yet as he didn't know what would happen to Lemy once he refined the small world.

After sometime Shin Jiao can now feel his control over the whole tiny world. He was dumbfounded after he discovers that the island is just truly a tiny portion of this realm. Then he noticed that the small island is actually full of rare plants and herbs which seem to have been gathered from every corner of the galaxy the blackbird lived in.

Then Shin Jiao saw the body of Mok Dong who lifelessly lay on the ground with a desperate look in its eyes. He also saw Qin Lou, Susu Ling, and the still unconscious Lemy hiding inside the large tree stump which is already under some debris of stones and fallen trees.

Shin Jiao felt really curious as he deepens his consciousness into this realm. He then realized why Mok Dong was too desperate to control this place. The world is rich with natural resources especially medicinal plants. Shin Jiao saw a couple of few isolated islands which contains different kind of things, ranging from spirit stones, weapons, armors, and more.

Mok Dong is actually able to control the small planet's entry point by forcing his spiritual control over the crystal. But this made it weak that it needed the life force of cultivators so that it could maintain its life and the little control it has over this tiny planet.

"I guess it's time to end this and go back."
