Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

'Once you have total control over the entire world, you can simply link this world with your star map using a blood drop of yours,' Gege said before adding, 'after that you can simply summon gates anywhere around you to link this world with any world you are in.'

"And these gates won't be limited to anything?" Arthur asked, trying to get better knowledge about this point.

'Nothing at all. Not even a lock state over any world will affect this. This link will be direct to your soul, so nothing can stop it except your death.'

"That's perfect," Arthur didn't worry about him getting killed. Not to mention his last upgrade in dragonair, cultivation, and golden pearl strength, his special sensation for the energy around also got upgraded.

Previously he could see the world in a strange mood, like he had some higher power in his eyes. Around him would be a pillar expanding and reacting to any hostile energy.

But after getting all his powers elevated, he started to get a feeling that he could now use this power to a higher level. It wasn't only a defensive pillar, but if he wanted he could simply summon any pillars inside the area covered with his spiritual sense and attack anyone and any place he wanted.

This was a great ability, especially effective against sneaky enemies or large numbers of enemies. As for the exact strength of these pillars, he had yet to put them under test to know their real value.

But he had this feeling that even if his enemy was someone from the higher realms, he wouldn't fart well in front of his pillars.

"What's taking them so long?"

After another three days, he didn't hear anything from Doaf. for a moment he suspected something bad happened and sent an order for Amera and Jude to lead their armies and go out there to help Doaf.

During this time he got to chat more with Gege and got to know more about his future link with this world. According to Gege, anywhere covered with the tree of mirror sense could be used to summon portals in it.

If it was this world, Arthur wouldn't find it bad. But considering the fact that he would target lower realms from now on, he knew the coverage distance of his tree of mirrors would grow exponentially, making this ability something terrifying.

Just after two days of dispatching Amera and Jude out, he got a bird's wing from Doaf at last.

"They have already conquered the area two days ago," Arthur read the message more than once before he got another from Doaf. "They got delayed because of Deem and Gor… the two are now building the last three cities in that spot using the help of Doaf and his men."

Arthur went into silence for a brief while before he knew this world wouldn't be conquered until the last city was built. According to the past records of Deem and Gor, the two could build cities in less than two weeks.

As he had nothing else to do, Arthur decided to take a stroll over his empire here. He knew once he left this world, he wouldn't have the chance to get back again and get to know this world better.

Two weeks' time seemed not too much, but for someone like Arthur who had his portals ready to take him all around the world was enough. He started his tour with the mountain city, then to the lake city, before taking a wide tour around, ending up at the place he first started from.

It was a large and open space, with a series of mountains behind and a large forest ahead. In these plains he first came to this world, leading his scattered armies and got to acquire his first people.

Here he faced retaliation from the dark clans, proving one time after another his strength and superiority above them. Right now the plains were squeezed between three big cities of his, the oldest cities he ever had.

The number of people living in each city was above ten million already. Prosperity, peace, and strange tranquility prevailed over the atmosphere.

Being here made him forget all about his hardships, like this piece of the world was cut apart from the rest. Nothing here pointed out any struggle or war, any misery or poverty, any injustice or tyranny… just being inside any of these three cities and seeing the proud looks over the faces of his own citizens made Arthur realize how deep his success was.

He didn't succeed in just conquering the dark camp, getting victories from the brutal enemies he faced, but he gave birth to a great opportunity for everyone living in this world.

He gave them hope. Hope for a better future for them, for their kids, grandkids, and even their grandkids. At this moment Arthur truly felt how blessed he was by what he did.

Without even knowing it, he started something that looked at the moment more grandiose than anything else he ever did, not even in his past life.

"This empire of mine… I bet it will last for the last time," he felt more proud than anyone else while walking in his first three cities' streets.

At this moment he felt like a god, leaving behind a legacy that was strong enough to sustain the cruel challenges of the time.

But he never expected that his grand empire would only last for hundreds of years. He never expected that time was crueler, much crueler than what he ever thought.

"They are finished?" Just as he was walking through a bustling street in one of the three cities, and after the passage of two weeks, he finally got a bird's wing from Doaf, Amera, and Jude telling him about the success of Deem and Gor for building the last city in this world.

Despite feeling honored and proud, he frowned. He looked around while feeling nothing, nothing at all after receiving this message.

And at this moment he felt strange pressure over himself, like he missed something trivial, yet very crucial for him to return home.

'Ding! Don't worry, I believe it will take a few more minutes before happening,' the system tried to comfort him while the golden dragon agreed.

'You have been here for many years, so it will take a while until the portal leading back appears.. Now you should start linking this world with yourself before anything else.'
