The Geared Immortal

Chapter 940 - The Inner Kingdom: Axle Long's Discovery

Chapter 940

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao could already feel that inside the void he could already use 100% of his power. It's like the void is a separate world from the Land of Death or Xinglo kingdom. In this place, he could use the maximum range of his spiritual, absolute, and divine senses.

However, even if he would try to use everything in his arsenal, the shadow dragon in front of him is still stronger than himself. It is giving off an aura that is almost comparable to Nariz Gumal, but it seems that this guy is only at around level 85.

As Shin Jiao tried escaping the shadow dragon chases after him.

'Mana energy 20%...' the system alarm.

Shin Jiao did not bother with it and continue trying to dodge the onslaught of attacks from the shadow dragon.

The silver mech he is in right now is already in shambles with one of its legs torn apart, and some parts of its armor already broken. The weapons on its body are all gone except for the beam saber in its right hand.

Right now, Shin Jiao is using the small rifle staff on the mech's head to shoot intermittent bursts of fireballs.

He has expended his missiles which are particularly useless in the fight, and most of his ordinance is gone.

Shin Jiao did not stop scanning his surroundings while escaping in a circle.

Bzzt… Boom!!!

Another dark laser erupted from the eyes of the dragon which hits the mech's shielding.

'Shield 0%, damage critical… Eject! Eject!'

The sound of the mech's system blared inside the cockpit.

"Come on! There has got to be a way…" he muttered as he desperately scanned all over the debris that are scattered everywhere.

Shin Jiao still did not eject the mech.

Suddenly from his senses, he saw something…

…

Meanwhile, in Zepa City, the envoy of the king has already arrived. Unknown to Shin Jiao he has already been gone for a while and the time for them to go to the capital city is already at hand. So without a choice, his group has decided to go to the capital.

At this time, the ones to go are Axle Long who decided to go out, Xiamen Gong, Hua Xiao, Yemei Yin, Im Jae, Phil Mason who has already returned from the elven kingdom in Dragon's ridge, and Gwendolyn Grav who has been staying in Zepa city for a while now.

Gwendolyn decided to be with the group so that the nobles would not cause any trouble with them. Especially the two beautiful women, she knew that they would grab the attention of the many noble houses there.

She is not worried about Yemei Yin as she is always invisible and is always in hiding. Ever since coming in contact with the group Gwendolyn has already realized what the Mystique shop is trying to do. Their goal and their plans would truly benefit the people of the kingdom.

There is even a chance that because of this the wars would end and peace would reign at last.

"Princess, will your father not get angry with you staying with us all the time…" Hua Xiao teased.

"Hihi… Sister Xiao, my father is not that strict when it comes to me. After the war, I seem to have lost my value, so I have my freedom. Although I still have to conduct myself with dignity and is going to be given away to another family, he never really cared about my matter these days…"

When Mao Enosis who was sent to welcome the group to the capital heard this, his expression changed. He knew that what the princess said is true. To keep the linage of her light power, the king has chosen a good prospect for her. But by saying good prospect, means that the family has the great backing of having too much wealth in the kingdom.

In these months the battle for her hand in marriage has already changed and the one who is in line is the son from the house of Xing, Martial Xing.

The Xing family has gained much wealth these days due to them being a little ahead of others with their connection with the merchant association. With the products coming from the Mystique shop already circulating and the Xing family getting the first hand in obtaining them, they have earned too much wealth that they are able to grab a chance to be the fiancée of the 8th princess.

"Princess we have to go now, the king is waiting for us in the capital…" Mao Enosis said politely.

The group then set off to the capital on the transport ship provided by the Mystique shop.

How were they able to bring such a ship to the inner kingdom? Well, that is the work of Nariz Gumal. After observing and asking Shin Jiao how he is able to use his ability and spatial tool, Nariz Gumal became really interested in the idea of using spatial tools in the Xinglo Kingdom.

However, it seems that it was almost impossible. So she began to think outside of the box. From what Shin Jiao explained to her, she began using a different approach in making spatial tools. Instead of creating another dimension and stabilizing it, she did a roundabout way of making a spatial tool.

And her way of thinking landed on the idea of folding spaces. It is something that works like teleportation, but instead of teleporting, she would fold the space which would enable one to access another place in an instant.

But this technique has its restrictions as she discovered. Living things could not go through the space created. Only solid objects are able to pass through. Well, it's just like a spatial tool then, so she is already contented with this kind of result.

And after several months of experimenting and perfecting the technology, Nariz Gumal has finally set up what she called a general warehouse. This is where everything in the inventory of the Mystique shop is located. A designated machine would always sort out things that would go inside the warehouse.

Then she gave several rings to only those important personnel in the Mystique Shop.

Nariz herself has one, along with the people from the immortal land and some high-level mages who are assigned to purchasing materials and harvesting.

And so with this new technology in place, Axle Long who has stayed with Nariz Gumal for a long time in the ship and is more familiar with the usage of the ring took out the flying ship.

It caused a slight commotion amongst the people as they saw people boarding the ship, then it slowly hovers in the sky and flew into the horizon.

"You people are really weird… We mages have been experimenting for a while now about space, but are still unable to get a grasp of its concept. But you guys are able to do as such… sigh, heaven is truly unfair." Mao Enosis grumble a little while looking at the horizon.

As a Grand Mage, he could fly and easily traverse the land, however, it is not as comfortable as riding a ship such as this.

He began asking Axle Gong, but how could the guy explain to him the concept. If Nariz Gumal or Shin Jiao is here, then they might be able to do so. But as for him who is more focused on martial techniques and growing his mana core, he could not answer the old man's query.

After a while, the old man left him be and began going around the ship checking things out.

At this time, Xiamen Gong sits near his friend.

"How is your progress?" he asked with a smile.

"The two cores in my body are good… What Shin Jiao told us is something of a breakthrough. If we can use two types of energy besides the universal energy, then we would not be at a disadvantage wherever we would go after we exited the immortal land…" Axle Long said in a hushed tone.

"Yeah, I discovered this too. I also tried supplementing my dantian with mana, and it actually accepted it, but a little painful…" Xiamen Gong said with an awkward smile.

"Hahaha… You can't do that… Shortcuts are impossible. I have been observing Shin Jiao before, and he does it like this…" Axle Long said as he suddenly showed his friend how to transfer mana to his dantian.

Xiamen Gong observed and then saw the changes inside the body of Axle Long.

From the mana core near his dantian, Axle Long slowly refined the mana and carefully covers his dantian with it. Then he began converting mana into universe energy through the filtration cover. Soon his dantian received the amount of mana in his small mana core.

Then he activated the aura in his body which startled Xiamen Gong. Though there are restrictions, he was still able to reach level 59.

"This is the strongest we can be in this place…" Axle Long said with a smile.

But on the side, Mao Enosis's jaw almost fell to the ground.. This is because he clearly saw that this guy suddenly became a Grand Magus in an instant.
