God´s Eyes

Jason's surroundings were veiled in darkness, which would normally generate fear in others.

However, it gave Jason the time to calm down before he blurted out.

"What the hell just happened?"

He knew that he was alone, but that was not the issue because his entire body was drained of mana, making it impossible for him to see anything.

His eyes were veiled as it was normally the case within world bridges, and Jason could barely sense his surroundings.

Realising that it was no different from the times he had used a world bridge before calmed him further.

As such, Jason was able to start absorbing tiny traces of the surrounding mana before leading it to his Emperor Eyes.

Through this, his Emperor Eyes' natural protection was directly utilized and the veil around his eyes quickly dispersed.

However, what he saw in front of him was an all too familiar scene, something he had seen multiple times whenever he used a world bridge.

The surroundings were filled with the three cultivation energies, and millions of stars could be seen in the vast expanse of darkness.

Jason had already found out that the stars were in fact other planets, stellar systems, and so on, but instead of being focused on that, he decided to avert his attention to the small planet he could see far in the distance.

He felt a tug, as if he was being pulled towards exactly the same distant planet, only to figure out that his earlier assumption was completely wrong.

The planet was by no means small, and the nearer Jason was pulled to it through the world bridge's pathway, the bigger it appeared to him.

'Just...what kind of existence is this planet....? In comparison to it, Argos...is tiny!!'

If the planet's size was not surprising enough, Jason was truly shocked the moment he sensed dense mana and other energies radiating from the planet.

It made him smile lightly, only to remember that he was not sure what place exactly he would be dumped into.

'I hope I won't be flung deep in the ocean….I think… maybe, I will be thrown straight into a volcano, or suffocate by being thrown straight into nothing but stone…'

In the end, the world bridge he had been pulled into had been an anomaly, which Jason could by no means take lightly.

Furthermore, not a single beast had emerged from the large world bridge, when it had been active on Argos.

This could have many reasons, but Jason was not sure if any of the ones he had in his mind made sense.

As such, he could only hope that the place he would be thrown into was not a dead-end.

A dead-end would be the worst-case scenario, and Jason would rather fall into an active volcano or be thrown into a deep ocean because he would have, at least, a small chance to survive.

Even if he had accepted the fact that he was forcefully pulled into the world bridge without Wisse, who was much stronger than he was, Jason felt that fate was playing around with him.

He knew that he could have escaped the world bridge's suction force by simply unsealing his Celestia bloodline, but consequently, he would have been severely injured while several seals on his bloodline would have been irreparably destroyed.

Through this, his situation would only have worsened because his body had yet to get fully accustomed to the divine aura he had annexed and devoured!

His body couldn't withstand the vast pressure of a true Celestia yet, and there had been countless times that it had been on the brink of being torn apart.

It was only because of this that Jason had decided to choose to enter the world bridge without further unleashing his bloodline further even for a short moment.

This could have been a mistake, but it was an instinctive decision Jason took, in the single second wherein he had to make his choice.

Without complaining, Jason accepted his current situation. He was unable to change it, either way.

As such, making the best out of the situation was the only option in front of him.

Even if he was not sure if it was something one could do or not, Jason had to replenish his mana.

Thus, he absorbed the surrounding mana, hoping that he wouldn't alter anything, or too much about the world bridge's final destination.

However, it was necessary for Jason to fill his mana core to the brim as he wasn't sure what horrors would await him after he emerged from the world bridge. 

It was always better to be safe than sorry.

At that moment, a shocking thought appeared in his mind.

'What if the place I emerge happens to be the territory of beasts with a higher cultivation base than the 2nd threshold of the Prismar stage?... Without a single beast at a lower cultivation stage….'

Shaking his head, Jason reminded himself that he shouldn't be a pessimist.

Trying to think of a solution, he put himself in Wisse's shoes. 

Jason tried to imagine what the young dragon would have done, had he been in his place.

It was likely that he was already on his way back to Tagran, but Jason couldn't know that for sure.

He was not even sure how much time had passed since he had been pulled into the world bridge.

With that thought in mind, he realised that Wisse might already be back on Tagran, or still be on Argos.

'I think Manyr...was it...right? Either way, the planet's size is several times larger than Argos, and I'm not even sure if I can truly measure it only using my eyes...Even if Wisse would be searching for me, how should he know where to start?'

Smiling dryly, Jason could only shake his head and absorb some of the surrounding mana until his mana core was filled to the brim.

After that, he would have loved to start cultivating, but that was not possible right now.

Jason knew that he had to be vigilant and fully prepared for the moment when he would emerge on the other side, and that was not possible while cultivating.

Time seemed to pass extremely slowly, and the planet in front of him was still increasing in size.

However, that only allowed Jason to make use of his Emperor Eyes as he inserted a faint amount of mana into them, reinforcing his eyesight.

Thanks to the enhanced eyesight, Jason was able to see more details about Manyr than before.

Yet, at the same time, he noticed the direction in which the world bridge's pathway was leading him.

The planet had many beautiful sceneries, and a spark of excitement ignited within Jason, only to die down the moment he saw the place he was likely to enter.

'If you force me into the world bridge, at least give me some nice scenery to look at...and not barren lands…'

Sighing deeply, Jason felt as if he had been betrayed by the world bridge. Chuckling to himself, he realised that it was a ridiculous thought which allowed him to get a hang of himself only a few seconds later.

"It is about time!" He mumbled, turning serious as he told his three soulbonds to be ready to enter his mana core.

Not knowing where he would land, all three of his soulbonds prepared themselves for the worst.

Because of that, everyone was becoming tenser the closer they approached the vast planet called Manyr.

The most annoying thing however was that Jason's assumption about his final destination had been accurate, and the vast barren lands were dotted with green, blue, and brown spots denoting sparse vegetation and oases. 

As for the rest, it looked similar to mud but was more black than anything else, in addition to purple spots that didn't look welcoming either.

The sight alone was already more than enough for Jason to be frustrated about, but he tried to remain calm as he focused on the moment his entire body shook as he was rapidly pulled through the end of the world bridge's pathway.

The moment he emerged somewhere, Jason and his soulbonds were ready.

However, instead of springing up into action, he looked around and saw a glimpse of something thanks to the world bridge's faint shining light it radiated, before it disappeared forever, leaving him in utter darkness.

His feet touched solid ground, and Jason was able to breathe properly, however, what he saw through his mana eyes was still enough for him to be worried about.

'Just where the hell am I?'
