Yo! I'm going to change a few things from ATG so bear with me. Hope you enjoy this chapter!
I'm also going to wrap up this arc of ATG, with a major battle. This will all lead to Bruce going to the other novel Unparalleled, mainly for a few items of power that it holds.
All this to prepare for his Ascencion to becoming a full god and laying the pay to become more than just a God.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Above Supreme Ocean Palace]
A hole in space appears above a gigantic Island in the middle of an ocean south of the profound sky continent.
From this hole comes Bruce and Eria, who upon looking down on the Island could immediately sense a great source of darkness coming from a certain part of the island.
"Bruce what is that power down there, I can even sense death and destruction coming from this place as well, asked Eria.
Bruce looking at her says, "what you sense is our next and last target of this lower dimension, The Evil Infant wheel of Myriad Tribulations."
Woah, Eria mumbled to herself, lost in her own thoughts, as she didn't see Bruce raise his left hand.
*Rumble*
But she was shaken out of her thoughts, as the northern part of the island began shaking and trembling, as if an earthquake had struck.
*Tremble*
*BOOMM*
Then all of a sudden, an explosion happened, the northern part of the island blew up as something or someone flew out of the north part of the island.
Eria, looking on at the scrambling people running and looking around for any intruders, or the source of the chaos, just clicked her teeth.
*tch*
Then she turned to Bruce and then in front of him, there she saw a middle-aged man just frozen in place.
"Is he dead?" She asked.
"No, just frozen in time." Bruce responded.
"So, what are you going to do with him," she asked. Bruce just smirked and said, I'm going to pull something out of his soul, and then rewind time to fix the mess I just made."
Eria just looked on in silence, not bothered by the fact people beneath them are flying all around and looking for the person responsible for the destruction of their home.
Bruce, holding the moon Slaughter Devil in the air just directs his soul power and telekinesis and began pulling in a certain section of the Devils soul.
*Whoosh*
*Swish*
Very soon pitch-black darkness starts coming out of the devil's mouth, eyes, and even nose.
The darkness starts caressing Bruce all over his body and her hears a voice trying to promise him sweet things and all the power he could want.
But Bruce isn't fazed, and so he pulls harder and then screeching sound or the sound of glass breaking echos in his ears.
*Srechhh*
*Riiiiiiiii*
Just his ears though, as he isolated his position as soon as it started. The power and screeching form this thing could have killed everyone on the planet if he didn't.
Soon after a few seconds of pulling, a blob and mass of black darkness squirmed out of the Devils chest like water. And soon in front of Bruce, the second deadliest thing in this appeared.
A huge wheel, completely pitch black floated in front of Bruce. The spiritual will of the wheel, as soon as it appeared immediately started to try and talk with Bruce.
But Bruce, the whites in his eyes turn's black like an abyss and his mouth opens. Then an insanely powerful suction force begins pulling the wheel and all its energy into him.
The wheel couldn't even make a sound, as it began to be disintegrated and turned into its most pure form of essence.
Eria, watching on is just amazed at this power from Bruce, but she also begins surveying the area around them. Just to make sure nothing unexpected happens. Seeing nothing after checking the surroundings, she turns back to Bruce.
And at this very moment when she turned back to him, the wheel disappeared completely into Bruce.
Closing his eyes, Bruce watches his stomach process and break down the Wheel into its first and most pure essence.
'Primordial Energy!' He thought and quite a lot of it as well. Kinda like three oceans worth and it's still processing as well.
'Hmm, now what I will do is go and get the wind seed.' Bruce thought.
Then opening his eyes, he begins to use the law of time and rewinds all the destruction that just happened as well as heal the Devil.
"You can torment Yun Che for a while." Bruce said as he put Yun Che's image into the devils' mind, making it so he harbors ill will to him.
But also making sure the Devil doesn't kill him as Bruce wants to, after he destroys everything and everyone, he ever cared for in front of him.
Once he is done, Bruce drops the devil back into the secret space he was in before. Then rewinding the time of the day back to noon, he put's everyone back where they were before he arrived.
Smiling as he finished his work Bruce turns to Eria. Seeing him look at her she asks, "are you finished?"
He nods, then grabs Eira with his power and they both disappear into the void.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Void of Space, Above Planet Blue Pole Star]
"Wow, it really is beautiful up here, Bruce." The voice of Eria said as they appeared up above the planet.
Bruce hearing her speak, looks up from watching the floating planet and smiles at her. Then he says, "this sight is nothing compared to the views you will see in the future."
"Besides as your power grows in the future this will just be a passing view in your thoughts." After Bruce spoke, he looked back at the planet, and for a few seconds he watched all of the humans go on about their lives.
Then turning his head over to the north of the planet, he saw Yun Che now entering the golden crow trial space.
'I'll see you soon enough and when I do, well this dimension won't even be able to fathom what I will do to you and it.' Smiling as he thought this, Bruce then released his wrathful thought to scan the vast universe.
'There you are.' he thought.
Sensenig the entrance to the so-called God Realm he smirked, then he turned his head over to Eria and said, "Let's go to our next destination Eria."
Eria nodding walks close to him. Bruce enveloping her in his power, then he teleports over to place he sensed the vast energy of yin. :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ Northern Divine Region]
(a.k.a Devil Region)
A grayish hole appeared in the space above a black and vast mountain range in the Northern Divine Region.
As the hole widened larger the clouds around it dispersed, then out from the hole a man and a white wolf walked through.
"Wow the energy here is hundreds of times if not thousands of times better than the low dimension where I can from, Bruce." Eria said as they passed through the hole.
Bruce, breathing in the Essance in the air, nods in agreement. As just the smell of the realm is much better from the planet they came from.
"We are in the divine region of this universe, almost like another plane of existence, if you need a better understanding of this place," Bruce said.
"Oh cool, this is really fun." " Also, I feel that I'm getting much stronger just from breathing in and absorbing the Qi in the air." Eria spoke.
Bruce turning to look at her, scans her body very closely. Looking inside her body, he sees the blood, cells, and veins being filled and transformed into new stronger versions of themselves.
But also, the gamma in her as well is reinforcing her fleshly body alongside the profound essence in the air. 'Hmm, the gamma is slowly eating the profound essence in her body, interesting.'
The scientist in him has been awakened. 'I'll study this more in-depth later.' He thought.
"That is wonderful Eria, and from sensing your power, by this worlds level of power you would be placed at the level of Divine King Realm." "And that is just your realm, not your fighting power."
"Plus, you are passively getting stronger much faster than the normal people of this world." Bruce spoke happily, making Eria blush in embarrassment and happiness.
"So, what are you going to do here Bruce?" She asked him, trying to change the subject.
Bruce just smiled, then he said," Well, I put us at this place mainly to get the last seed I need and also because I wanted to grab a certain sword as well."
"Ok so where to first!" she said excited and ready to see new places and things.
Bruce grinning said, " well first, let's go grab the seed."
Nodding her head in excitement, Bruce envelops her in his energy and with a thought they both teleport to the south.
[Center Ruins Realm]
Appearing on a rocky plain, Bruce and Eria' attention is immediately drawn in by the massive light greenish windstorm. The massive windstorm covers the land of tens of thousands of miles.
"Well, we found the place." Eria voice jokingly laughed out. Bruce just grunted and reached forward with his telekinesis.
*Whoosh*
The center part of the storm split open as a green small object flew out of it and quickly approached Bruce and Eria.
*Swish*
*Pack*
Smacking into his left hand as he grabs it, Bruce looks at the seed as he says, "After this I will go and visit the Dragon realm and see if I can study the law of Light as well."
While also silently thinking to himself, 'I can also see if I can free her to.'
"And if need be, I'll finally have a Dragon BBQ." Smirking sinisterly at that last part, Bruce then sits on the ground and begins comprehending the law of wind.
Eria, just looks on at him being cringy and shakes her head as she sits behind him, giving Bruce something to lay his back on.
The windstorm in front of them calmed down a bit, as the source of its power was in Bruces hands. But it still roamed around, just slower than before and less intense.
/1hour later/
Opening his eyes, Bruce looked down at the little green seed in his hands, a little breeze picked up around him and Eria. Putting the seed in his left hand, Bruce raises his right hand, and a little tornado of wind began spinning on it.
And after a few second of messing around with the wind in his hand, Bruce stops. Then gets up from the ground, as does Eria.
"Quite particular, but let's put you back where you belong." Bruce said as he dispersed the wind from moving around them.
Then, he threw the seed back into the windstorm, who once had the seed back in it began regaining it power and strength. Tearing up the lands and earth once again.
*Woosh*
'Hmm, well now that I'm done with this, let's travel for a while and explore.' 'And maybe I will see or find something I haven't already.' thinking this, he turns to Eria and says, "let's go Eria."
Then both man and wolf begin flying away from this region and space.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Above the Dragon God Realm]
(6 months later)
"It's been nothing more than a few months since I've been in this place." I have seen many bad and horrible things but also some good things." "But this, this just pisses me off even more than I already am."
A man's voice echoed out in an empty void, as he gazed upon a forbidden place in the Dragon God Realm.
A sword in a huge and vast well, but what the man is looking at is not sword itself.
But the woman in the sword, he can see that it is a part of her soul that has been sealed into the sword. And her physical body is trapped in this realm, just left to wonder around like a lost soul.
And from the man's observation from looking at the soul and physical body of the woman, it is like all life and light has left her eyes.
"Bruce, you should free her or give her some company." Bruce, hearing Eria's voice can't help but agree. As he knows the pain of isolation and not being able to leave a place of your own free will.
Then looking at Eria he says, "you can come with me, or you can keep exploring around the universe without me." "You are stronger, but be careful Eria," he said seriously.
Eira pondering his words, nods her head and says, "Then I will keep exploring around the universe, until you call for me Bruce." "And don't worry I will be careful." Her voice echoed out as she disappeared into snow particles.
/Hmph/
Snorting at her showing off, Bruce says, "since she learned she could do that she has been showing off every chance she got."
Shaking his head, Bruce turns back to the sight of the woman, and he makes up his mind. "Forbidden Land of Samsara, And Shen Xi, I'm setting you free."
Then he dropped down into the land, passing through all restrictions and unbothered by the different laws of space and time.
/Down Below in the Land of Samsara/
Down below in the forbidden Land of Samsara, a small little ordinary house was sitting upon a stout green hill.
On this small house, there were no other decorations, and there was no luster of jewels or pearls. Like most women or men would have in their home. No grand palace as the woman who lived here was unmoved by most earthly and worldly things.
Coming closer to the house, the door suddenly opens as a beautiful woman walks outside and began wandering around.
The woman in question was wearing nothing more than a simple and ordinary pure-white long robe. Her long hair reached her waist, it had not been combed or tied up in any way, it merely splayed out over her shoulders and across her back, releasing a soft and gently luster.
She walks down a field of pink flowers when she hears a small boom echo from above her head.
*Boom*
Looking up, she sees a black dot dropping down to her position and before she can move out the way. The black dot slows up and slowly floats down in front of her.
*Woosh*
*thud*
Seeing the thing, which now see can see is a man. A man that looks like no other man she has seen before in her life. The dark black hair and his swirling stormy eyes, that feel as if they are sucking her into them.
Shaking her head from those crazy thoughts, she is confused and on guard as it might be one of "his" ploys in an attempt to woo her.
So, secretly guarding herself, she was about to ask the man a question, but before she could say anything. The man says,
"Shen Xi, my name is Bruce."
