"Elemental Shaman Realm; a realm we found within the catacombs of the Sovereign Elemental Gods of olden. They're filled with elemental sprites and remanent spirit of ancient gods though they have all been sealed and tamed by our Pillars. Surprisingly, the environment is void of any qi or essence as they feed upon source power. The strongest of their ranks have also reached the Saint realm."
"Thorny Blight Realm; a realm created by ancestor tyrannical heart as he used the remains of a First grade void god beats to create void sentinels. The environment is full of Void essence as the laws are chaotic and the land is infested with deadly corrupted qis. They are all at the very least Saint level creatures with some even reaching the Half step Dao realm."
"Primal World Realm; a very balanced realm created by Pillar Verdant Infinity as he made sure to include all discovered life forms within the chaos heavens with varying levels of power. The environment contains almost all kinds of qis but the leading one is Primal god essence, making the beasts especially powerful and ferocious. It's divided into multiple layers, each corresponding with a cultivation level." She concluded.
Quickly reviewing his objectives, Orion chose.
"Alright, I'll go to the Primal World realm."
Without need for further instructions, Cecilia waved her hand as a massive portal appeared in front of Orion.
"Thanks, I'll see you later."
"Mm, stay safe."
***
Stepping into a dense forest, he was immediately assaulted by the thick smell of blood and a heavy, beastial atmosphere.
Countless predatory gazes immediately locked onto him as within the dead of the night, their crimson war mongering gazes created an eldritch fresque of horror and madness.
Orion smirked as he felt the swarm of enemies that immediately rushed toward him.
'Activate automatic analysis.'
[Order received.]
[Dream initiation.]
[Mental link formation…array establishment…]
Though it sounded like a robotic foreign entity, this was just a piece of his mind he had reprogrammed using dream runes. It was very simplistic but that was enough for him.
[Initiation complete!]
[Swarm of Venom Blade Bees detected! Number unknown!]
Endless darkness flooded his eyes as his vision cleared, akin to a ray of light illuminating his world.
With his vision cleared, he could now see how surrounded he was by strange huge green bees that had obsidian blades covered in yellow runes for stingers.
'Oof, they're all in the Saint realm. I could defeat them but it would attract too much attention. I don't wanna attract a Dao beast, not yet.'
A wave of darkness engulfed him as he melded with the shadows, vanishing from the senses of the bees.
As he traversed the shadows, Orion walked around, observing the various creatures around him.
Immediately, a beam of condensed light pierced through the shadow realm and instantly shattered his elemental shield which just saved his life.
Before he could react, another beam hit him, charring the entirety of his left side.
Priming his senses, Orion rapidly healed as he looked for the source of the attack.
Unease swept through him as he constantly moved through the shadows, afraid that stagnancy might get him hit again.
'Found you…'
In the distant skies, a humanoid draconic being calmly stood, its gaze blazing with ferocity as it directly stared at Orion.
With beautiful white scales covered in golden runes, two beautiful white wings and a presence that commanded reverence and respect, Orion immediately identified it.
[Everlasting Light Dragon God(infant) has been detected!]
'So you found me through our blood discord…interesting…'
Stepping out of the shadows, Orion didn't bother looking at the bees as they fell like flies onto the ground, arcs of dark lightning still coursing through their bodies.
Tearing off what was left of his changpao, Orion summoned a magnificent single edged golden spear as he beckoned for the young dragon to come, a mocking smile etched onto his face.
Roaring in fury and contempt, the young dragon vanished as he reappeared behind Orion, its fist covered in golden qi as it aimed to punch a hole through his back.
WHOOSH!
Orion's figure flickered, reappearing to the beast's left as his blade fell down, covered in dark flames.
With a simple side step, the dragon dodged and got closer to Orion but the former seemed to have expected it as he performed a quick back step, only to burst forth again with a powerful thrust.
CLANK!
The dragon's scales were akin to steel as it effortlessly blocked his attack.
Vanishing once again, he reappeared a few metres behind the dragon.
With a wave, his spear vanished as dark scales flickered into existence, the white runes etched onto them pulsing with power.
"Let's do it old school."
Lowering his stance, he clasped his right hand behind his back as his left hand was put on guard, his focus evident.
The dragon only snickered in arrogance and contempt as a blinding ray of light clashed with an unending wave of all encompassing darkness.
This clash went on for a few more seconds before they both vanished.
After images of their battle littered the forest as none seemed to be able to take the lead.
Punch after punch, kick after kick, Orion only became more and more excited as the dust the had settled within him was blown away.
Violently punching the dragon, he grabbed its arm before it went flying then drove his knee into the dragon's head.
Bones broke and blood flowed as he madly laughed.
Before the dragon could roar in anger, Orion pierced his hand into its stomach, attempting to pull its spine out.
"ARGHHHHHHGGGG!"
A wild roar escaped the dragon's lips as the laws of time hectically flashed within his pupils, stilling them for a mere instant.
Though it was for a mere moment, it gave the dragon a lot of time to act.
Immediately healing the dragon launched an endless rafale of punches and kicks onto Orion's figure as the latter had no chance to defend himself.
The dragon's throat expanded right as time retook its course and just as Orion received the accumulated force of all its hits, a massive dragon beam, thicker than a titan's hand, escaped the dragon's maw as Orion felt it all at once.
[Dragon Furry: Avalanche.]
BOOOOOOOOM!
"ARGHHHHHHGGGG!"
A scream of agony, mixed with blood and burns reverberated as Orion felt his very existence be cleansed the holiest of holiest of lights as his body crumbled under the onslaught the dragon inflicted on him during the time freeze.
Crashing into multiple trees, Orion's skin had burnt off as his blood force struggled to fight against the holy light essence that invaded his being.
Harrumphing in pride, the dragon stomped its feet, creating an earth throne as it simply waited.
Its pride had been utterly sullied and it would pay it back a hundredfold.
