Chapter 238: Journey Back to Home
--- Chapter 235 ---
Baek Ain floated inside some invisible bubbles. He couldn't move his body and felt something trying to pull him away.
After transiting to become Genesis Qi Cultivator, Baek Ain felt an extreme on his body when crossing to the lower realm. The latter totally rejects Baek Ain's existence because he'd break the balance.
Unfortunately, Baek Ain wasn't shy about a challenge.
A twin blade, a white spear, a serrated green dagger, a silver needle and golden threads, and a jet-black longsword appeared.
Baek Ain held the twin blades, and the rest floated around him.
Baek Ain crossed the twin blades like entering a stance and stared ahead, seeing a white bubble the size of a star blocking him from entering the Dou Qi Plane.
He grinned and activated his new skills....
[Fateless Armament Domain (Domain)]
[Introduction: A domain of soaring martial weapon intents, possessing a combination of many destructive forces and encapsulating the concept of Fateless Combat, the field of a lone warrior viewed as a killing demon for his unorthodox way]
[Omni-Arms (Immortal Technique)]
[Introduction: A technique created to grab all the essence of 3,000 laws, allowing one to make arms that exist and not exist simultaneously in the same dimension. Each arm possessed a different law]
[Universal Edge's Codes (Immortal Technique)]
[Introduction: Nomological codes when the universe followed the Great Ways. The codes are invisible to the eye and sense, but one can trace them back to the beginning of existence. Harnessing the strength of nomological codes, one could build an edge that cut through laws]
[Quad-Blade Visualization Art (Divine Art)]
[Introduction: Visualizing weapons in reality is not an impossible feat, but using them at ease isn't easy. This Divine Art allowed one to imagine quad blades, blades, swords, spears, and daggers, the deadly weapons of wars, into reality and use them to attack]
...
[Host, the Dimensional Bubble isn't easy to break] Alicia suddenly commented.
[But I believe you can do it]
[Give it your all!]
"Of course, leave it to me." Baek Ain responded confidently.
"Watch this."
"Blade Universe!"
A brilliant white light exploded from Baek Ain and turned into a field of white flowers.
He shook his twin blades gently, turning the field of white flowers into more blades, swords, spears, and daggers. Each radiated with divine sharpness and merged into a destructive white wave.
"Blade Orbit."
The white wave revolved around Domina-Tion, wrapping the edges with myriad runes.
"Three Thousand Great Ways, One Hundred Reincarnation, Cycle of Life and Death..."
"Break them all, Ashen Slash!"
Baek Ain slashed toward the white bubble and temporarily tore the barrier between Heaven Genesis World and Great Thousand World. Both worlds experienced a bright twilight and a sense of helplessness.
Many shook, but they couldn't do anything.
They could only watch the twilight disappear alongside the last wisp of sharpness.
However, those heavenly experts will remember this event.
A powerful being has descended into their worlds.
Unfortunately, they didn't know who this mysterious expert was.
...
...
Baek Ain broke the bubble and immediately sucked inside. He felt free and immediately asked Alicia for directions.
Alicia, being herself, told Baek Ain they needed a few more hours to enter the Dou Qi Plane in the Great Thousand World.
Roars!
[Spectral Creatures] Alicia.
[Host, there are Spectral Creatures ahead!]
"Why did you sound excited?" Baek Ain was confused.
[Because I am excited. Spectral Creatures drop substance called Spectral Crystal, and they are excellent materials for building spatial bridges between planes]
[You can build a spatial bridge between the Dou Qi Plane and the Luo Clan in the Higher Plane]
[When you're strong enough, you can build the spatial bridge between the Great Thousand World and Heaven Genesis World]
Baek Ain activated Ashen God's eyes and saw what Spectral Creatures are. They look like dragon races but feel nothing like them.
Sensing Baek Ain's confusion, Alicia added more information about the Spectral Creature.
[Spectral Creature is born from recently dying souls]
[They bore resentment and bone-deep spatial affinity, roaming in the gap between planes]
[It seems a group of dragon races died here recently]
"Well, that's unfortunate..."
[Yeah, I think so, too] Alicia agreed with Baek Ain.
[Dragon Race's flesh and bloodline would nourish your Ashen Behemoth's bloodline more]
Baek Ain pulled Roc's Spine only this time.
He gazed at the Spectral Creatures and didn't feel much threat from them.
"I also won't get skills from them either, but whatever."
Baek Ain slaughtered the Spectral Creatures and cleansed their extreme resentment with Golden Crow's Divine Flame, scattering their ashes in the void.
Sometimes, black crystals covered with silver runes would drop. They are Spectral Crystal.
Baek Ain has gotten himself over a hundred Spectral Crystals and faced the strongest Spectral Creature in the group.
Roar!
A draconic roar reverberated in the void.
A massive black-scaled dragon with hollow eyes flapped its wings in the void and fired several fireballs at Baek Ain.
Baek Ain was about to blow this fellow apart with his white spear when one of his Heavenly Flames requested something.
"What do you want, Little Dragon?" Baek Ain glanced down at the purple-black dragon-shaped flame.
The three thousand burning flame had been accompanying Baek Ain for a while. Even though the former hasn't performed any more merit besides granting Baek Ain the Three Thousand Star Constitution.
After a while, Little Dragon has grown a bunch by leeching on Baek Ain's body and soul. Not only did Little Dragon's fire become hotter after Baek Ain's baptism of becoming the Golden Crow's Incarnation in the Heaven Genesis World, but he also became a half-step Divine Flame alongside other Heavenly Flames.
"B-Boss, let me fight this dragon." Little Dragon answered with stutter and determination. "I felt like I could evolve after swallowing it."
Baek Ain raised his eyebrow, "You do know that none of you are real Dragon, right?"
"You only become like this because someone from the Ancient Void Dragon left a mark on you?"
"If you're a real dragon, I'd roast and eat you."
Little Dragon was embarrassed, "It's not like that, Boss."
"Also, please don't eat me..."
"Explain. I will give you ten seconds." Baek Ain crossed his arms, ignoring the rapidly approaching Spectral Dragon.
Little Dragon nodded and replied, "So, it's like this."
"I was born in the Starry River and possessed the power of stars."
"My destruction ability is one of the best among the Heavenly Flames, but I still lack the profundity in my fire. That's Spatial Energy."
"If I can swallow that Spectral Dragon, I can become Three Thousand Burning Void Stars Flame!"
"I won't lose to the Nihility Devouring Flame!"
"Are you sure?" Baek Ain smirked. "You won't pee yourself when I throw you to fight the Nihility Devouring Flame, right?"
Little Dragon paled a little, "P-Please gives me a chance. No, give me a second or three chances."
Baek Ain shrugged, "Whatever, go fight that fellow first."
With that, Baek Ain threw Little Dragon away.
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH~!!"
Little Dragon hurled into space and crashed against the Spectral Dragon, groaning in pain.
"You little b-!" Little Dragon immediately released his giant form.
ROAR!
A purple-black dragon surrounded with an intense, fiery hue materialized and clashed with the Spectral Dragon.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Baek Ain watched them fight, creating fiery storms one after another, but Little Dragon won in the end by snapping the Spectral Dragon into two.
Little Dragon glanced at Baek Ain. His gaze is asking for permission.
Baek Ain nodded, and Little Dragon happily ate the Spectral Dragon's remains.
After a few moments, Little Dragon's purple-black body gained a silverish hue and manifested two pairs of feathery silver wings. There are also faint silver scales growing on his body, making it more majestic despite not being a real dragon.
"Not bad. You can be my ride to the Dou Qi Plane now." Baek Ain landed on Little Dragon's head.
"Right away, Boss!" Little Dragon happily flapped his wings and flew away at rapid speed.
"WRONG DIRECTION, Block Head!" Baek Ain's mouth twitched.
"Go west!"
"S-S-SORRY, BOSS!"
A man and a dragon moved into a dark space.
...
...
Dou Qi Plane.
A black-haired beauty in a red robe sat on a bamboo mat. She gazed at the azure sky, "Ain..."
"He will be back."
"How long would it take for Ain to return?" Asked another woman beside her. She wore a green dress and a phoenix hairpin.
Cai Lin sipped her tea and smiled a little, "Soon."
"He can't leave us for too long, or I will be mad."
