The silver bug clearly hated Han Sen, perhaps because Han Sen had stolen the Beginning of Ancient God . No matter how hard he tried to climb onto the shore, the bug would thrust him back into the water .
The shadow was growing larger . Han Sen did not think it was just his imagination, and he earnestly believed that something was rising toward him from the depths .
Han Sen wanted to live, so he scrambled toward the shore again . But he was too weak, and he was physically unable to climb up .
Boom!
The water exploded into a fountain as a giant monster’s head appeared . When it opened its mouth, Han Sen was as small as an ant in comparison . Water rushed toward the gaping maw, and Han Sen was pulled in with it . He found himself falling into a strange place that was as big as a house .
“Am I in the monster’s stomach?” Han Sen fell into a strange liquid, and to his shock, he saw that it was corroding his armor .
His Marquise class Soul Armor had strong defenses, but after being coated with that substance, the armor was already fizzing . The corrosive was very strong, and it wouldn’t be long before the armor was completely destroyed . He thought that, at best, his armor would buy him ten minutes .
The walls were black . Han Sen swam to them and tried hitting them, but it felt as if he was striking rubber . His fists bounced off without leaving a single dent .
Han Sen did not know if it was because he was too weak or if the creature was too high of a level . Either way, it had a strength that he just couldn’t overcome
Regardless, he couldn’t bring down the walls, and the way back up had been sealed . Han Sen was soaked in a highly- corrosive liquid . Things were getting dire .
The Soul Armor was plumes of bubbles as it fizzed . It was being corroded at an alarming rate, and it’d soon break .
Han Sen knew that there was no way out . His only hope was to regain some energy while he was in the substance . The Soul Armor was breaking down too quickly, though . It was on the precipice of breaking .
So, Han Sen took a deep breath and returned his Soul Armor . He used the dregs of his strength to cast Petrify, turning his body into stone .
Now, he had nothing left to do . Life or death was now at the whim of destiny .
Petrify could turn Han Sen to stone, but it wasn’t very strong . There was a difference between it and the defensive petrification geno arts .
The liquid was strong enough to melt the Soul Armor of a Marquise . He did not have much hope of Petrify seeing him through the ordeal . He only made the attempt because he couldn’t think of anything else .
The liquid surrounded his stone body, but surprisingly, his petrified body was not corroded . He slowly began to sink to the bottom .
Han Sen could only cast The Story of Genes . It was the sole geno art he could make use of while using Petrify .
Time went by, and the liquid churned around Han Sen continuously . He did not know what the monster was doing, and he did not know where he was . But to him, right then, it did not matter .
On an island in Return Ruin Sea, there was a collection of the Dragon assembled . They looked like humans, but they had dragon horns . They were in the process of conducting a strange ritual .
They threw the xenogeneics they had killed into a pool on the island . They mumbled something to the pool, but it wasn’t clear what they were saying .
“Father, we’ve gathered such a small amount of food . Will it be enough to satiate the Dragon God?” A little boy, with red dragon horns, asked his father .
“Maybe . ” The father had to force a smile .
Return Ruin Sea was one of the xenogeneic spaces that belonged to the Dragon, but it was not a primary one . The Dragon there was only one part of the greater Dragon host . Their blood was not that pure .
Return Ruin Sea was like a training ground for the Dragon . The impure Dragons were often sent there, and only the strongest of them were taken seriously by the Dragon . Those who proved their power were taken away to become proper Dragons .
The Dragon on that island had mixed blood . The pure Dragon had dragon horns and wings, but the people of that island only had horns .
They were making sacrifices to something they called the Dragon God . They gave it food because whenever the Dragon God came there to eat, it would leave behind dragon scales . They were items of great importance to the Dragon .
But the Dragon God ate a lot, and these Dragons were not strong . They could not hunt many xenogeneics, and so they could not offer much of a bounty . They were worried about whether or not the Dragon God would even like the food .
If the Dragon God was not fully satisfied, he would not leave them scales . That was assuming that he’d even eat at all, if the stuff was not to his liking .
The Dragon were all very worried . The corpses inside the pool had dyed it red, but soon enough, the pool began to produce bubbles . Everyone stared at the water nervously .
Boom!
The red pool exploded, as a giant beast opened its maw and swallowed up the meat .
The Dragon kept throwing food into the pool, and the Dragon God xenogeneic consumed everything it was given . Its maw was like a bottomless pit . The food that fell into it just disappeared, and the beast had a stomach that seemed infinite .
Quickly, they threw the last of the xenogeneic meat they had into the pool . Everyone looked at the Dragon God, wondering if they had satisfied it . They did not know if it would leave them dragon scales .
The Dragon God ate all the food, and when it was done, it roared to the sky . It made the entire island vibrate . The water for dozens of miles around was thrown into wavy turmoil .
After it roared, it returned to the water and disappeared .
Everyone was shocked, but after a while, their expressions turned to depression . They hadn’t given the beast enough food . Thankfully, the Dragon God hadn’t eaten the assembly, but it also hadn’t left them scales .
But as the Dragon lowered their heads in exhaustion, the sound of thrashing water was heard once more . It sounded as if something was splashing its way out of the water .
They quickly raised their heads again, and what they saw made their eyes widen . There was a silky-smooth man coming out of the water, clutching a white feather knife .
They all stood motionless, unsure what was happening . Something alive had come out of the Dragon God . It was like a fairytale to them .
