Cross Over IV

"You get infected by chaos energy. This is one of the most primordial and oldest energy in the universe. It is unstable. If it gets into your body, it will weaken your body and corrode your organs. Luckily, the sect have a pill that can heal you all," he explained and bring out a pouch from his pants pocket. He pulled out talisman with the Chinese syllable 'Seal' and planted it on three of them.

"It will prevent the energy from spreading to other members of the sect, now go to the infirmary." He stood and pointed the direction of the infirmary. The man nodded and walked as fast as he could while carrying his two brothers for trestment.

Soon, they disappeared after turning to a corner. The man looked somewhere and the corner of his lip curved up.

"I know you're there. Your technique can't fool my eyes," he demanded as he stretched his arms to the sky.

Hearing his words, a person slowly materialized in the air. A bald man with tiny stature of a child, but his head was disfigured and he had a mustache. He covered himself with a black robe and short pants. He had a cane with snake carving in his left hand.

Right now, he was praying with his other hand. His body exude bright yellow light of virtue.

"You're praying, old man? I thought you're sneaking up on me. My bad." He made a chuckle.

"I've come to deliver you a news." He spoke with his eyes closed. His hand slipped into his robe and give him a letter.

"A letter? Can't they use phones?" He received it. His eyes widened briefly, "The Celestial Heaven insignia? We can't possibly offend them. They can't be mad over a mission many sects have failed," he gave his insight and opened the letter.

He read it out loud for the old man to hear it. "The Celestial Palace has been destroyed. Many royal families and people died. They are killed by an unknown enemy. We need help to recover the Celestial Palace."

"You hear that, old man? They never did anything for us when we need help and when they come begging for help, we have to comply, this is bs." He perform a simple magical technique, the letter turned into smithereens.

"I'm more interested in the guy who can jse chaotic energy! He must be powerful! It has been a while since I've found a good match!" He smiled as he punched his fist with another. "Ouch!" He yelled abruptly. He slowly turned his head with anger.

The old man hit him with the cane.

"What's with that, old man!" He reached out his hand to grab the crane, wanting to break it in half. As his hand was an inch away from the crane, the old man pointed his finger at him and he froze in spot.

"Go and help them, you fool. Whoever dares to destroy the Celestial Palace and even kill their people is no one ordinary, now go. Furthermore, with Celestial Heaven have no ruler, this realm will be more dangerous and chaotic. The Under Realm and Demon Realm will attack this realm," he explained as he rose his crane.

"I'm not interested in becoming the next ruler of Celestial Heaven." He replied with a low, sad tone.

"I'm not ordering you to become the next ruler. Hum, this is a perfect time, actually. Retrieve His Highness daughter. She has been sealed for far too long."

"Isn't that just the sect mission? I'm honestly surprised she has been sealed for two hundred years yet no one could break it," he commented with a chuckle.

The old man waved his crane, and he start to move again.

"It's His Highness will. Do you think he will let anyone seal his daughter and let him live?" The old man shook his head, his voice filled with mock over his student overlook on the detail.

The ruler of Celestial Heaven carried the might that can destroy planets, topple the stars and crush black holes. He possessed knowledge no vast than the ocean.

Unsealing someone was equivalent to a doctor treating cold!.

Letting her free was simple, but he let it be.

"Yeah, you're right. Still, despite the fact He announced who will be his successor to the prince that can bring most benefits to this realm. Too bad it doesn't go as planned," he said as he was staring at the sky. A bright star shone brightly above his head.

'Never see that star shine brightly before.' he said under his breath.

"We never know what goes inside the head of a ruler, but to believe him. We know one thing, He never makes a decision that is detrimental to us." The old man knew the ruler of Celestial Heaven. When the old man was in his youth, the ruler was already born.

He born into a poor family with no cultivation history, but he alone was different, possessing a unique body constitution that allowed him to absorb energy ten times faster and kept increasing.

Many sects wanted him, but he chose the most ordinary sect that turned out hiding a legacy of a prominent figure in the past. With the sect, he grew further and his sect became larger.

He met with enemies and hardships too, many times death approached him, but he respectfully say no and continue living, until a few years ago when he died under a strange circumstances.

Now after his death, someone destroyed his Royal Palace. The old man pondered to himself, is it the same enemy as the one that killed His Majesty? But the letter doesn't mention anything about the killer. To destroy such a giant place, it is hard to imagine not a single person seeing him, there must be at least one!

"How about the letter? It told me to go there." Honored One frowned.

"I will go instead." He grabbed the letter and slipped it inside his robe.

"Okay. I'll go fetch the little princess then. Where is she at anyway?" He retreated a few steps back from his teacher.

"Earth Realm. Best of luck, Honored One." The old man flew up and his body vanished.

"If it's you calling me with that name, I feel mocked." He didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Everyone has someone higher than them. In his case, well, plain as day.

He assumed a boxing stance. Electric arcs flickered in his fists along with black clouds covering it. These clouds didn't seem to be the one producing the electric arcs, they proved to be another power.

He punched the air, causing it to tremble then cracks start to appear. It spread and formed a giant hole in it. He walked through it.

The hole vanished the moment he entered it. He took a deep breath first. He coughed a few times.

"I forgot how dirty the air this realm has." He began regretting taking that deep breath, the same regret as confessing your crush and ends up she didn't no, but instead, insulting your face.

Now with his cough gone, he observed his surroundings. Before him was the view and behind him a transparent window covered by the curtain. A bit of light escaped from the corner of the curtain. He teleported in a balcony of a stranger.

"Strange, why did I teleport here?" He asked himself with eyes on his fist. He could control which location on earth he wanted to teleported.

He should be teleported to where she is. If not, closest to her. Yet, reality decide to disappoint him. Well, it didn't matter, he could simply look for her. It won't take long, anyway.

Just then, he heard footsteps coming his way. He didn't hesitate as he jumped down the balcony and hit the ground, the ground caved in deeply, causing powerful tremors.

People thought earthquake hit as the ground shook greatly. Affected cars turned on their alarm system. The whole neighborhood became noisy. The dogs followed too with their barking.

Someone in the neighborhood wishes they can kill these dogs and sell them to the Chinese for dog soup.

After causing a ruckus, he leap to the air and vanished in the sky like a phantom.

Shortly after he jumped the balcony, the owner of the building slid the door to the left. A girl Ryuta recognized with a glance, Shino!

She had her pajamas on. When she opened the door, she looked wary with a hint of confusion. She frowned the next moment.

"No one? But I feel a powerful aura coming from here. Has the summoning failed?" She pinched her chin and disappointment with sadness slowly replaced her current expression.

She walked to the balcony, rest her elbow on the fence, looked at the view and exuded a sigh.

"Maybe I should give up. This isn't working at all."

Meanwhile, he landed on an empty field after that one leap. Upon landing, the field went in, creating a two meter deep and fifteen meter wide crater. Cloud of dust also filled the area when he landed.
