The students were training hard during this three months. It was set aside for only training as there won't be much training till the day of the International competition.
The International Competition, called Magnus Bout was a fight for the country with the greatest Magnus'. Korea was always last so no one expected anything, but it was about to change.
It is made of three stages. Local, State before National. The main one comprises of the previous winners to fight with the current which was always the coolest part of the competition.
.....
Meanwhile Wugong had tore open a portal. Xiao Yan saw this and how convenient it was but at the same time, he was confused.
"If Sir Wugong can tear open space as his power, then how are you able to do it?" He asked Wudi.
"Torah is the one. Torah is my spirit sword. Imbued with power of the void spirit, Entorah. So it can tear open space whenever it wants."
"Sounds pretty convenient. This makes me wanna get my hands on Shin faster." He smirked.
"Chats over. Our destination awaits." Wugong smiles as he reveals the destination that was burning all over.
"Are we seriously going in there? Are you two just looking for ways to set me ablaze?"
"Damn you fucking move in" Wudi angrily kicks his butt, pushing him into the portal before entering."
The place they entered is called Antania, the Larva Mountain. The only dry land was surrounded by flames with larva below them. It had extreme got energies that any ordinary person would be boiled in an instant.
"It's not as hot as I expected it to be. Although it's hot, but it's bearable."
"This is your Dragon Bloodline. The Ancient Asura Dragon body. Let me tell you about the Asura Dragon who was known as the Dragon God. He was the strongest existence after the Gods. The Golden Dragon, Alxatras. Although he reigned in flames, He too was an elemental Dragon but lacks the earth element.
All other Dragon powers originated from him. His flames were as hot as a thousand suns, yet he had dark attributes. He had both light and dark powers that were balanced well, complementing themselves." Wudi smiled.
"Alxatras passed a way before the death of Habaek and his core was the virgin ginseng. The only hundred thousand years virgin ginseng. But, it was stolen by the Legendary Theif. Forgotten his name. He also fought Habaek. It turned out that he wasn't compatible with the Dragon Powers." Wudi thought.
"I brought you here because you need to make a contract with Ancalagon and call him out of your sword. The wisest Dragon, Ancalagon will know a lot about your bloodline and assist you." Wudi walked foward and touched the ground. A big magic circle appeared on the ground.
Xiao Yan walked forward and sat down on the magic circle. He was trying to connect to the flame energy.
He was concentrating on the energies around him.
Suddenly he felt a sudden hotness as red fumes gathered around him as Kurogane for the first time forcefully appeared without Xiao Yan calling it out.
Blood red fumes from Kurogane rushed into Xiao Yan as the red fumes followed after.
"Will he be able to hold it in?" Wudi looked worried.
"I don't really know. A part of me tells me that he will make it. It all depends on his will."
"He is gonna go through a lot of painful experiences in order to get powerful enough to face those evil old bag of bones." Wudi looked at Xiao Yan with pity.
Flames could be seen engulfing Xiao Yan as he began screaming in pain. The pains he was going through now was no joke. He felt like he was gonna die soon. He began seeing all his life experiences passing through his eyes.
'I want to become strong. I want to be able to take care of my parents. I can't go down here. I can't die here.' "I CAN'T DIE HERE!!!"
Suddenly a golden glow appeared as Xiao Yan's eyeballs were already blank. Yet he was still fighting.
...
Three aged men could be seen flying towards a place. It contained immense dark energy leaking all over, but yet, there was still light energy lingering in the vicinity. It looked like a purgatory owned by a heavenly being with an immense pressure that could annihilate even am immortal soul realm cultivator. These old men were Menxia, Zeng Zufu and Doumu.
They entered into a big white castle. The interior was blood red and was wide enough for two Giants to have a tusle and still have space. They began walking as they went through the big space reaching a big and gigantic door.
"Old men of the Sky Pavilion. Welcome to my abode." A voice could be heard from inside the room behind the closed door. The voice was so clear and loud as it resonated in their consciousness. Suddenly the door opened leading to a big throne room with a man who was relaxing in his throne with crossed legs while looking at the trio with an evil smile.
"These bastard don't know how to show respect hehehe. KNEEL!!"
Suddenly a bone chilling murderous intent emitted from the man as the pressure brought the trio to their knees.
'So this is the power of a Heavenly Immortal Soul Realm master. I can't even breathe. The gap is really big.' the trio were sweating profusely.
"Great Elder. Pardon our mistake." Menxia pleaded while sweating like he could die the next minute.
"I am expecting a good response from you. Have you located Shin?"
"We have a lead. We sensed the aura from the Cang realm, so we suspect Shin to be there." Zeng Zufu stated coolly.
"Hmmmm... Cang realm huh. Well it's a dark realm so that's expected. I will warn you on time now." He looked at the trio with bloodshot eyes. "Don't fuck this up."
.....
Xioa Yan saw himself covered with thick darkness. He couldn't see anything. Not even himself.
"You finally reached here huh. Xiao Yan, son of my stupid disciple and incarnate of that bastard Habaek."
"Who is there" Xiao Yan looked around hastily looking for where he heard the voice.
"Hehehehe... Your looking for me, even when am in front of you? Don't tell me that you're as deaf as your predecessor." A huge murderous aura engulfed Xiao Yan as he felt like he couldn't even breath properly. He was covered with sweat but still made sure to try raise his head up.
"That's what I like about you. Your resilience. Let me see if you can keep it after seeing me hehe"
Suddenly the darkness turned to a sea of flames with little lands littered around. The yin energy was dense as it was so hot that he could feel himself burning up.
Suddenly he felt a piercing gaze behind him, only to turn around to see a gigantic Blood red Dragon as big as a mountain with red eyes looking down on him. The Dragon roared loudly, sending chills down Xiao Yan's spine as he fell on hi knees looking up at the Dragon. He had to admit. This was no where compared to that new Dragon he managed to kill by chance. There was no hope to fight it.
