1549 My Chariot In Danger!
I felt pain for a long time. Since I became strong, since I started to cultivate, it wasn’t that easy to meet anything that could hurt me.
Yet this spear here managed to do it! And that was enough evidence on how deadly and quite special it was.
“Get in here!” The last few hundreds metres away from this damn piece of metal was like a true nightmare. What I feared happened, and a sudden bubble appeared fast, trying to encapsulate this damn spear and shield it off from my reach.
But the moment I spotted this fast arching light coming from the ground around the spear, I didn’t hesitate and flipped my wings, using them for the first time ever in a real battle.
I moved like a cannonball, headed at a speed that turned everything around me into flashing dots of light.
I felt massive pain all of sudden, and that told me I already hit that spear.
Without thinking about anything, I stored away the trident, extended my hand and touched that damn spear.
I felt like I touched the centre of an earthquake or something. My entire arm and body trembled alongside it, making me gush more energy into my board, to finally shut up this damn spear.
“Just get in there!” I never tried to take anything into my inventory aside from bones. But this dude here was an exception, something I wanted to get, and tame later on.
*Buzz!*
“Just shut the hell up and get inside!” I roared, and the entire bones’ energy gushed into my board, and the maximum power of gravity got enforced over any target since I acquired this board.
*Fwoosh!*
After struggling for ten seconds, that damn beast finally gave in and got sucked inside my inventory.
This was the only plan I could think of, the one to solve such trouble and give myself one hellish artefact.
But I didn’t feel any excitement the moment I got it inside my inventory. First, this artefact needed lots of time and effort to get tamed. And second, and most important of all, there was no time for me to even laugh or feel happy about this.
The moment that annoying piece of weapon vanished, I took out my staff, activated the bookmark of a place I saved here before, then vanished from this spot.
When I appeared, I was way far from my chariot. “Come back!” I shouted, but unlike what I used to have, the chariot refused to listen to me.
I could see its shield trembling fiercely under invisible waves attacking it. “Damn it! You shut your eyes over my precious girl? No f*cking way!”
I grew used to my chariot for a long time already, dealing with it like I was dealing with my arm or leg.
Trying to get my chariot away from me? Did they think we were playing an eye for an eye here or what?
I didn’t flinch, and instantly flapped my wings while moving forward quite fast. The initial momentum I got from my chariot vanished, and I had to start building up speed again.
I didn’t accept such a waste of time without doing something. Trying to activate the trident or the board wasn’t going to happen. After all I got to use bones, and without my chariot as my movable backyard, I couldn’t do it anymore.
That just showed how much my chariot played in my current way of fighting and strength.
I started to summon more shields, strengthening the already few shields I got here. At the same time, I used the expansion ability of my shields, and let the new ones add more space for the old ones.
They wanted to take my chariot away? Let me see how they’d do that with my fast growing shields here.
I could see the shield of my chariot trembling violently as if it was getting pressured by an unknown force. But just halfway through, I watched my shields finally reach towards my chariot.
*Rumble!*
And like two formidable beings clashed against each other, the entire world rumbled while the shape of what was attacking my chariot started to appear in my eyes at last.
It was a colossal being, something that had no appearance except translucent one. I couldn’t tell if it was a race or a monster, but it was something that was at least a few hundred metres in length.
“I’d take you as a damn beast to kill,” I didn’t care what identity this damn thing was. As long as it sat its eyes over my chariot, it was game over for it.
To kill a beast I’d prefer to use another beast to do it. It was just unlucky that the merge wasn’t over yet, and my little Qi wasn’t here alongside my other monsters.
Or else this damn brat out there would have faced its nemesis and learnt its lesson quite well.
As I didn’t get any access to my beasts, I got my own beast out.
“Time to show your deadly sharpness, little dragon glaive!” I waved my glaive high in the air, rose in an arc up in the sky, before falling like a meteorite over the illusionary body of that dude.
I didn’t know if it was a real body or just a manifestation of power. If it was the latter, then I’d simply pass through it, ending up inside my chariot.
And if it got real body, then it was time for my glaive to shine.

Against my expectations, I didn’t get to hear any clanging sound, didn’t feel any pain in my arms, or fierce resistance coming at my glaive.
What I felt was something weird… It was like a bubble of soap that I burst open. I looked and couldn’t help but see my glaive sinking slowly inside this monster’s illusionary body, sinking deeply into it as if it hit water and not a solid thing.
Damn! What the heck did these fiends bring to me?
