Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair Chapter 709 - The Sleeping World's Will

"I… might have," he mysteriously said, "but it didn't look that dangerous to ."

"It's," Doaf firmly nodded, "I dunno which part you see or what you have experienced. But the fact that you saw it and walked away with your life still amazes ."

" too," Ara joined Doaf as she added, "I heard of an endless list of masters who tried to prey and investigate hidden and dark realms and all lost their lives without exception."

"It's not ti to admire that," Arthur hurriedly said, trying to shift the topic, "we need to start linking this place to that place or we'll lose the portal and everything with it."

The two exchanged silent glances before Doaf asked:

"Can't you try and force the array through?"

"Yeah, like pumping out a lot of energy and forcing the portal to break through."

"I… doubt that would be possible," Arthur could already feel the rock underneath his feet turning into a piece of hell, "we are facing the entire world's energy and we have few numbers. There is no safer option than aiming for that mysterious realm even if it's more dangerous."

"We might die," Ara warned.

"We will definitely die here if this portal fails," Arthur firmly said, "we can't throw ourselves towards a dead end and expect to survive. Let us try that world, who knows we might have an easy passage like what I had before."

"…"

"…"

The two didn't speak for a minute before Arthur urged them, "we need to act now if we want this portal to succeed," he pointed towards his feet, "the rock is already emitting a dangerous amount of energy and I won't be able to hold it for so long."

"Sigh, I hope we aren't signing our death certificate here," Doaf bitterly said before adding, "to establish this array we need to go sowhere else away from this one or else that energy would clash and ruin this one."

"Alright, go and do whatever you need to," Arthur said, "I will try to hold this array as long as I can."

The two moved in hesitation under Arthur's watchful gazes and started to summon up their n.

'Ding! Are you afraid of that sinister soul?' the system asked.

"Sigh, I'm not worried about that soul. Last ti it was blocked by that girl," Arthur said, "but I'm worried to face more of such souls and invite them to this world."

'Ding! I'll try to awaken that sleepy dragon then,' the system said, 'Ding! I bet he knows a thing or two about this place.'

"I hope he does," Arthur prayed while watching Ara and Doaf take away their n and vanish into the horizon, "I wish we aren't solving a problem by creating a bigger one."

He waited while the heat coming from the rock started to invade his body. Wisps of alien energy kept gushing inside him, and he had to circulate all of his spiritual energy to cleanse it.

When he tried to control his dragonair energy he failed to contain it. "It seems my dragonair energy triggers it up," he muttered while finding using the spiritual energy more compelling.

'Ding! He is still sleeping,' the system sighed.

"What can kill a world's will?" Arthur suddenly asked, "can normal mages do it?"

'Ding! I believe it's a clash of power,' the system said, 'Ding! And if the power of the mages is stronger then they can crush her.'

"But I doubt they can have such power," Arthur thought, "when I rescued that world's will from before, it was against a mighty monster coming from a higher realm."

'Ding! And?'

"There is no higher realm than here," Arthur said, "I doubt the difference in strength would be this severe. That world's will must have been killed using sothing else…"

'Ding! You an… another world's will perhaps?'

"It might be," Arthur thought, "or we don't know what's going on with this world to judge."

'Ding! That's true,' the system agreed, 'Ding! Why not use that sleeping beauty inside the garden?'

His words made Arthur's mind flash with bright light. "Didn't she say she was abandoning her path as the world's will and setting track again over a path like mine?"

'Ding! And after all this ti she is still staying inside your garden sleeping without any sign of waking up,' the system said, 'Ding! Perhaps you two missed the point.'

"About what?"

'Ding! Her challenge or test wasn't about walking over the path of cultivation and mages like you… perhaps her path was related to the other world's will.'

Arthur thought about this for a mont and all he could reach were dead ends. "Sigh, it's really scary when one is dealing with heaven," he muttered, "but you might have a point. So what do you suggest?"

'Ding! We have a world without the world's will, and we have a world's will without a world… so why not mix the two together.'

Arthur finally got what his system was trying to say. "Can we do it?"

'Ding! In theory? Yes, but practically I don't know a way to do that.'

"…"

And Arthur got his face darkened while feeling his system was toying with him.

'Ding! But I can think of a way,' the system felt his anger, 'Ding! But that would take ti.'

Arthur turned his gaze at his feet before glancing at the distant horizon. "What we are doing since coming here is buying ourselves more ti… sigh, you start thinking of a way and don't worry about here."

'Ding! I'll try to awaken that sleeping dragon, I'm sure he will have an answer.'

"Don't waste your breaths over him," Arthur shook his head, "he is deeply injured from before and I doubt you can awaken him anyti soon."

'Ding! You have a point, last ti we took many days to awaken him for brief minutes.'

"Go and start brainstorming," Arthur said, "and I hope you won't be too late when finding out the solution."
