Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

*smash!*

Arkhen punched the 9th-grade Red-Horned Demon Mammoth, blowing it into pieces. Amidst blood and gore, he picked up a tooth of the mammoth and then went a hundred meters further to pick up a gently glowing flower sticking out of a tree.

'Now, I just need one last ingredient to concoct Raging Expansion pill,' Arkhen thought as he looked around and asked. 'Velshi, find the location of the last ingredient.'

[27 reality motes consumed]

…

"How is he collecting the needed ingredients so fast?" Shirashi's family head wondered with confusion. Not just her but many who were watching Arkhen were confused.

"It's been only ten minutes, and he already found all ingredients required to craft the Raging Expansion pill."

"Yeah, he just went straight to the location of those ingredients without wasting time as if he knew the locations beforehand."

"We can't be rash on these. Maybe, he has a skill that can let him find the ingredients he wants. Remember that Farmer Emperor?"

"True. He must have some kind of skill," the Shirashi family head said with a nod.

…

Arkhen had already collected all ingredients as he started moving towards the big mountain to climb the top and start the crafting.

After ten minutes, he arrived at the top and felt several hidden gazes on him. But unbothered by that, he waved his hand to create a fire whirl before suspending it in front of him.

Afterward, he started preparing the ingredients.

First, he refined the mammoth's tooth by extracting all of its purities and then turning it into fine powder.

Afterward, he infused chi energy into the Moon Glow flower. Doing that turned the flower half-red! Arkhen was focusing on this hard as he had to maintain the mutation of the Moon Glow flower at a perfect balance.

Two minutes later, he finished that, and right after that, he heard a ding.

——

[Ding! New Main Quest generated]

-Task:

—> Destroy all forces affiliated with Myriad Mayhem organization. (0/32)

-Reward:

—> Ancient secret of the world of Nine Realms, Desperado Mark.

Note: Completing this quest will delay the destruction of Gravel Ream by five years. Otherwise, it will be destroyed three years later.

——

Arkhen made a big pause, and his eyebrows raised high.' Now, what is this?'

[It means that you are finally going to set up your stage and become a player instead of a pawn in the big game called the World of Nine realms]

'Also, that note…. It says the destruction will be delayed?' Arkhen was confused regarding that.' Does that mean that destruction of Gravel Realm is imminent?'

[Yes and also de- Ouch…]

'What happened?'

[Sorry. I can't say certain things until you've progressed more].

…

"What is he doing? Why did he suddenly stop?"

"I don't know. But that flower will lose effectiveness the longer it stays like that."

"Yeah, he needs to resume soon."

"Oh, he started again."

Yosin and others were also startled to see Arkhen suddenly pausing during the crafting but sighed a relief after he continued again.

"Well, he is definitely passing this round. As for Sasha, that Wind Scuttle did a number on her," Tifani said with a wry smile.

"Haha, don't worry, Tifani. Your sister will pass this round for sure."

"I know. I am worried because the dire beasts are the only thing becoming her obstacle in this round.

On the other hand, they saw Arkhen quickly finishing the task as he successfully concocted three class-9 pills.

A staff member arrived there from the other side of the mountain and checked the pills before telling Arkhen to follow down the mountain's other side.

…

After Arkhen descended the mountain, he was greeted by a spectacular array of exquisite pavilions and buildings.

"Everything here is self-service. You can buy food there, bathe after walking into that small pathway as there are hot springs, and rest in any residential pavilion here. The next round will start after four hours."

"Alright," Arkhen nodded with a smile. He then looked around and wryly smiled after realizing something.

This whole setup was rather good. It was for participants who had trouble finding the ingredients by fighting beasts and going through rough patches before ascending the big mountain and finally crafting their items.

Alas, Arkhen went through none of that as he passed the round in less than thirty minutes!

After thinking for a bit, Arkhen decided to eat and went to the cafeteria pavilion. Afterward, he planned to use the rest of the time to practice crafting class-10 potions.

…

"No way… T-This…this can't be happening," Ulioran muttered as he opened his eyes and looked at the mysterious spinning wheel.

A few other powerhouses also opened their eyes simultaneously as Ulioran and showed disbelief.

"We know there are some big dimensions that are not connected to our World of Nine Realms, but they are ultimately just dimensions, and not a big world like the Nine Realms, but that scene we saw…."

"Was that really our future?"

All powerhouses had opened their eyes by now and started discussing.

"If what we saw is true, then we are in deep shit," Ulioran said with an extremely somber expression.

"There's no room for doubt. We must start preparing," said a beautiful woman with curvy golden horns and a pair of colorful wings: left-wing dark purple and right-wing dark gold.

"If there's no room for doubt, then that so-called Myriad Mayhem has already infiltrated all of our realms," said a Dragonoid man with majestic white horns, a thick dragon tail, and a scaly white body, looking splendid and handsome.

"Ahem, I have an announcement to make. It's about the thing I did previously," Ulioran said as he fake coughed loudly and attracted everyone's attention.

"So, you are finally willing to tell us what you got when you used those ancient runes?"

"Yes," Ulioran said as he widely grinned. "I got an object that I named Reality Token. I named it a reality token because I could sense reality-altering power from it."

"Oh? Where is it now?"

"No need to be greedy over it, haha. I tried every possible means to use its power, but I could barely use a bit of It after consuming the entirety of my powers, and it was less effective than my fart.

"It was also then that I heard a voice from it, and it told me what to do to make something called Reality System," Ulioran said and explained as he saw greedy lights in some beings' eyes.

"Reality system?"

Everyone was surprised and raised their eyebrows as they heard something similar when the wheel showed them some images.

"Yes. That voice in the token, which has now become the Reality System, wanted me to find hosts. I first searched in the 9th realm, but she said she needed weaker hosts who hadn't started their path yet. So, I went to the 1st realm where the system chose some talented, but they failed."

"Then, she said to go to Gravel Realm, where we decided to pick broken kids. In the end, we chose a miserable kid with the potential to grow but also break. If that kid also fails, we plan to choose another, but since I haven't heard that lady's voice yet, it means he is still alive."

"I see… So that thing called Dream System we saw in one of the images that this wheel showed us is connected to Reality System, I suppose," said someone.

"I have no idea, but since they sound so connected—reality system and dream system, they should be connected to this situation we will face."

"We can't be leisurely anymore. Let's explore those pandora dimensions more, get as strong as possible, and increase our comprehensive combat arsenal."

"And where are the other Exotic Demons, Ulioran? Since only you guys can use those ancient runes, then search for more ancient runes and find out more about them."

"Alright, I'll call others and get on it," Ulioran said as he nodded before internally thinking,' That cat and the mad blade should know about Arkhen's location… Hmmm, but I guess I have no reason to meet him for now.'

Ulioran and other powerhouses left Black Limbo, a special region in the 9th realm.

There were many dimensions attached to the World of Nine Realms, but there were also other dimensions that were not connected to the World of Nine Realms.

They called those unattached dimensions Pandora Dimensions.

One can only go to those Pandora Dimensions from Black Limbo, and only peak powerhouses of the 9th realm could access Black Limbo.

Ulioran had a special connection with other Exotic Demons, so he contacted them and called them back to the World of Nine Realms as they were exploring Pandora Dimensions on their own and enjoying cheap thrills.

After meeting with them, Ulioran also told them to focus and meditate in front of the mysterious wheel in the Black Limbo while using their soul sense on it.

They were also shocked by the various scenes shown to them by that wheel.

"Not gonna lie, I am actually excited. Nyahaha!" Nixeno said while laughing.

"Stop it. We know a little more than others because of our ability to use ancient runes, but what we saw in that wheel is out of our reach and knowledge. So it's time to explore our world again and find more ancient runes. Let's go."

The wheel of fate had started moving, involving powers far out of everyone's imagination!

Things were going to become chaotic and exciting soon :D.

…

Two hours passed as round two was over, and in the end, only 1283 participants passed the second round!

"Arkhen, the third round will be in pairs. Hehe, let's finish it fastest," Sasha said with bubbling excitement.
