The small world shook continuously for a few days.
When it stopped, Sui Xiong looked towards the small world and saw that there was no sky or land, no air or water, but a chaotic situation. He couldn’t make out left, right, south, east, north, west. He couldn’t find anything besides chaos.
“What the heck! I went overboard!”
He sighed and thought he was living a tough life. After spending a few years’ time, going through so much trouble, fighting countless battles, expending sweat and blood, killing uncountable brain cells, he finally dragged the small world from the middle to the surface of the Abyss. In the end, he accidentally ruined the spoils of war that he fought for with his hard work…
“Such itchy hands! Itchy hands!” He then slapped his tentacles angrily as though he were crazy.
“What are you doing?” The God of Justice couldn’t bear to see him acting like that. He stopped him. “Why are you hitting yourself out of nowhere?”
Sui Xiong showed Him a face of distress, and showed Him the situation of the small world.
The God of Justice was first stunned, then surprised. He creased his eyebrows and looked into it carefully. His eyebrows slowly eased.
“No wonder that old man didn’t even give me any opportunity to explain. I was wondering if he gave you too much… It seems that He even put your character into consideration!”
“What?”
The God of Justice smiled. “The sealed small worlds that I have given to you were actually not gathered by me, but by the old man on the Wheel of Order. From how it looks now, He might have thought that you’d want to save some trouble and blend all the small worlds together.”
Sui Xiong looked lost. He didn’t understand how it related to the fact that his small worlds had turned into a chaotic mess.
“From the look of it, your world seems to be ruined. But in fact, it is the total opposite. It is the most perfect state of a small world,” the God of Justice said. “Did you notice that it doesn’t weigh anything now, and the attraction of the Abyss towards it has vanished completely?”
Sui Xiong tugged it for a bit, and sure enough, the small world didn’t weigh anything. He could drag it around without any effort. Taking a closer look, he had already left the Abyss with his small world.
“Hey. Why would it be like this?” He asked curiously.
“Not only that!” the God of Justice smiled, “but you made a great profit! Everything in the small world reversed to its original chaos, which means that it possesses boundless possibility. You relied on your power to reopen it, and experienced opening a world personally. It is definitely beneficial to grasp the subtlety of nature’s power. And as they say, a piece of white paper is better for writing. Whatever you want the world to be, you can build. Is there any other world that is more suitable to make into a holy kingdom?”
Sui Xiong then finally realized what he was saying, and nodded continuously.
“I’ll drag this world back first. Where would be a good place to hide it?”
“You plan to hide this in the main dimension? That’s not right. That’s not right! What if there’s a problem?” the God of Justice asked. “Such matters like opening up a new world, I have never heard of. Maybe the old man knew, but He never brought it up with anyone. No one knows what will happen when a small world is opened up. So, I suggest you hide it in one of the unnoticeable spots in the material realm. Or just put it haughtily next to the emptiness in the main dimension, and I’ll look after it for you. All in all don’t leave it in the main dimension to avoid accidents.”
“I’ll have to trouble you again. How can I have the cheek to…” Sui Xiong smiled bitterly. “Previously, I asked you to help look after my place for a while, and it turned out to be a few years…”
“Things like time; are they meaningful for us?” the God of Justice asked in return.
Sui Xiong was stunned, and suddenly lost his smile.
Exactly; things like time, towards commoners who had limited age, were precious. But to immortals, time was considered nothing.
Back when he was in university, during ancient culture connoisseurship class, there was a lecturer who was indulged in Tao culture. He always wore a Taoist robe and his hair in a bun, and called himself “Dao Quan Zi.” He always sat alone in the corner while reading, and he wouldn’t respond to much. He only shook his head and recited Chuang Tzu, something about a 500 year old God Turtle that was legendary, an 8,000 year old tree that was legendary… Back then, he thought the lecturer pretended to be artistic and must have been a flirting expert. He probably had unknown numbers of sisters in his WeChat. Every girl wanted to ask him about ways to get a boyfriend. Then, he thought about him now and realized that the lecturer obviously wanted to be a celestial being…
Who would have expected it? He never thought promoting into a Celestial being would… oh wait; it’s promoting to God. Anyway, it’s immortality. It’s about the same. It’s just that he did not know what happened to the lecturer later on. He didn’t know if he really found a chance to turn into celestial being.
Most likely no, he guessed. Earth was so huge, but he never heard of anyone turning into celestial beings or Gods. Even among traversers, he seemed to be alone…
He couldn’t bear to look back to the past!
