Crack In The Barrier By Alex.

Alex swiftly left the room, anticipating Fengying's impending scolding for sharing the story. He yearned to meet his friend, Chang Li.

"Hope Chang Li's up for a drink. He's been training non-stop, no time for fun," Alex thought as he headed to their gathering place.

--

Chang Li sat in deep meditation, his face serene and contemplative. He journeyed through cosmic realms in his mind everything was dark with some shining light close to him.

A radiant figure appeared before him. "Who are you?" Chang Li asked.

'Hehehe,' the figure laughed and darted away, luring him on a chase through the cosmos until they stopped before a ruined planet. The planet was almost fully destroyed, it was like someone punched the side of it and it was completely ruined.

BANG!!!

"HEY BUDDY!!!" Alex's punch jolted Chang Li back to reality.

"AGH!!!" Chang Li woke up and saw Alex.

"Big Brother Li???" Chang Li stood up, still groggy.

"Yeah, it's me. You were so deep in your meditation that you didn't hear me. Are you okay? I hope I didn't interrupt your practice," Alex asked.

"Haha, no, you didn't," Chang Li chuckled.

"Let's sit and have some drinks," Alex suggested, guiding Chang Li to the table.

As they touched, memories of the light pulling his hand resurfaced but were quickly dismissed.

"Hey, you look tired. Want to talk about it?" Alex asked, concerned.

Chang Li poured himself a drink and confessed, "I've been having strange dreams for weeks. I chase a glowing silhouette in a celestial realm, and every time I get close, I see a world's destruction." Chang Li said this while having eyes that were remembering something.

"It's puzzling. I can't escape the dream until I witness the world's end, and it feels strangely familiar. Why is that?" Chang Li wondered.

"Can you show me the dream using your illusion technique?" Alex requested, sipping his drink.

Chang Li obliged, and when Alex saw the vision, he was amazed.

"PFFFFTTTT!!!" Alex gasped.

Beside the ruined planet was an enormous spaceship, both wrecked. The spaceship was extremely advanced with the things Alex only saw in Sci-Fi movies but as a Space Travel fan how could he not realize this was an Actual spaceship, theories came back to his mind that he was suspected when he saw big Air Pirate Ships in this world... Alex was very surprised in the past when he saw them but now his Theories were completely coming to fruiton, Theories were true. Alex smiled and realized he was getting into some secret of this world he had to unravel in the future, This spaceship and Chang Li's speech were the biggest Hint he had this wasn't just some kind of Cultivation World it was much more... Alex smiled once again and looked at Chang Li, he never realized his Best Friend would be key to find out the true history of this world and Just what the fuck was wrong with it... Alex would have to tell Chang Li his suspicions sooner or later but he could not do that now after Chang Li saw this not too long ago, Alex thought this in mere seconds before Looking at Chang Li and smiling. He would wait for a while before making sure Chang Li also wanted to investigate the true history of this world and cooperate with his investigation.

"(I KNEW THIS WORLD WAS UNUSUAL)," Alex thought, confirming his suspicions.

"Do you know anything about this, Big Brother Li?" Chang Li asked.

"Haha, no, but it looks like a massive battle. I wonder who caused this destruction," Alex replied carefully.

"It's a mystery... but I feel strangely connected to that world. How is that possible? I've only left this continent once, and that wasn't by choice," Chang Li mused, sipping his drink.

"Yeah, it's perplexing," Alex murmured.

--

Three hours later, Chang Li was asleep on the table, and the night had fallen.

Alex, still somewhat tipsy, gazed at the night sky.

"I almost forgot," he said, flying out of the window.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

Alex ascended into the stratosphere, aiming for the moon.

BANG!!! BANG!!! BANG!!!

He accelerated, almost reaching space, but an invisible barrier stopped him.

"What in the world?" Alex touched the solid barrier.

"[Space Shatter Punch (1 Shatter)]" he attempted to break it.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

But the barrier remained unscathed.

Alex was dumbfounded, he found some kind of barrier blocking the exit to the space.

"Fuck this, I can't believe I will not be able to crack this thing." Alex got ready and used all of his power to punch the Glass many times.

But even after 3 Hours it wasn't even scratched.

"Man..." He gave up, this thing was too strong for him.

Alex looked up to the moon which somehow looked closer than it was on the surface.

"Yeah... this is weird, normally moon should not be close enough to get closer when you go up in the sky... but this is another world I guess." He gave up and went down.

"Guess I can't crack this yet," Alex admitted, looking at the strangely close moon.

He decided to try again when he reached a higher rank.

Before he could do anything else, Botoz woke up from his pouch, seemingly wanting to show Alex something.

"Hm? What's wrong little guy." Alex looked at it weirdly, after playing for almost an entire day he felt the energy of this guy was escaping from him, he was quite worried before he discovered Little Guy had fallen asleep and energy was coming back new energy.

'Boo!!!' Botoz gestured toward the barrier.

Alex approached it. "I can't break this," he told Botoz.

'Boo!!! Booo!!! Booo!!!' Botoz jumped around and then...

BANG!!!

He touched Alex's hand.

BZZSSSSTTTTTT!!!

Alex's hand glowed with brown light.

"AGH!!!" Alex felt pain.

'Boo!!!' Botoz yelled, trying to remind him of something.

Alex understood, stood ready, and...

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

He struck the barrier, creating a thunderous noise heard by people below.

And just as he had suspected...

Crack!!!

End of Chapter.
