-3 Chapter 9

"Hello! Hello!" Prime shouted at the dark hole.

Not long after that, he heard his voice echoing back at him.

"Cool, this is fun,"

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" and he heard his echo voice again.

It was his first time shouting and hearing his echo voice, so he continues to play with it for a while until he was satisfied and stopped.

If it were him from his previous life, he would most likely retreat and take another route to explore, but since he's now a Dragon and also a Gamer, so he's confident that he'll be fine.

"Alright, no more playing games," said Prime while taking a deep breath.

After that, he gulped once again said:

"Okay, let's do this," and with that said, he then jumps down into the massive dark hole alone.

While he was falling deeper and deeper, he could feel his hair going up like super Saiyan because there are air and wind exist in this place surprisingly.

While he was descending downward, he would look at his surroundings to see if he could find anything, but all he sees was nothing except for walls made of rock around him.

At this point, he's just descending deeper and deeper downward without ending.

One thousand meters...

Three thousand meters.....

Ten thousand meters.....

Twenty-five thousand meters.....

Fifty thousand meters.....

'Hmm? What's going on here? And how am I not reaching the bottom yet?' Prime thought to himself.

Despite getting surrounded by complete darkness and walls made of rock, surprisingly, he quite enjoyed the terror of it. However, after descending Fifty thousand meters and still not reaching the bottom, that's when he's starting to get a little worried.

Alright, something is not right here.....

Just like in skydiving, you can change your direction by leaning more toward left, and you will fly toward the left, like a plane. Except that this time he doesn't have a wingsuit with him, so it's harder, but it still works.

With said that, he opens both his arms like a plane and leaned more toward the left and eventually, his body got closer to the cliff wall and with all his power, he tried to grab onto the wall.

However, because of the velocity of him falling down was so fast, so he needed to use his fingernail to scratch onto the wall to slow his speed down. Eventually, after a few seconds, he finally stabilizes himself against the wall, and that's when he decided to climb back up.

As he was climbing up, he could see his own scratch mark left on the wall from earlier during the falls.

"Phew, good thing I'm strong, otherwise my entire fingernail would have all came off,"

With his full speed, he started climbing back up, and eventually, he climbed more than Fifty thousand meters high, but he's still not seeing any sign of him reaching the top. At this point, he is starting to get a little nervous.

As he said that, suddenly he heard something from the system:

Ding!

[System Warning: You're trapped inside a magic illusion barrier]

Unfortunately, the system only warned him, but never tells him the method to escape.

Magic illusion barrier? Wtf? Since when did magic exist in this world?

He then closed both his eyes and use his dragon senses to scans his entire surroundings and finally, he sensed "MP/Mana" and the Mana was coming from the magic illusion barrier itself.

Hmm, it looks like someone came here before to set up this magic illusion barrier..... perhaps there must be someone living on this asteroid before?

Of course, it was all just his speculation, and whether it is true or not, no one knows. Although he could sense that he's inside the illusion barrier, but the only problem is that the illusion barrier is not visible meaning that he can't see it, and if he can't see it, then he can't destroy it.

"Damn, I've never encountered something like this before, I wonder what should I do in order to escape from this illusion barrier,"

With that said, he then transforms into a gigantic black dragon again, and with all his might, he shoots out all his dragon flame everywhere around him. But despite all that, his dragon flames are still not doing anything to the illusion barrier.

"Okay..... so dragon flames doesn't work huh? Hmm, then how about this!"

He then began punching the cliff wall and destroy everything around him, but not long after the cliff wall collapsed, within a few seconds everything was restored back to normal again. Meaning that what he destroys was not the real cliff wall, but rather it was just an illusion wall.

"Hmm, let's see what else I could do?" said Prime while stroking his chin.

After thinking for a while, he finally got an idea, and that was to hurt himself. With that said, he then transforms back into his human form again and bit his finger, and not long after that, blood started dripping out from his finger, and he could feel some pain.

Finally, the illusion barrier disappears. However, due to the fact that he has a strong regeneration ability, so he has to keep biting himself to feel pain constantly.

"Finally, it is working,"

After that, he then jumps down and about Fifty thousand meters later, "BOOOM!!" his feet finally landed on the ground and caused the ground to crack due to the impact of him falling from such height.

After that, he then wipes off whatever debris on his body and stands up straight and what he saw in front of him was a gigantic door made of skulls.

"What is this place?" said Prime curiously.

At the moment, he could sense powerful dark energy around him trying to devour his soul completely, but thankfully his soul and body are powerful, so it didn't do any harm to him. Below his feet was a satanic rune on the ground, and right now, he is standing right in the middle of the rune.

The rune was a round shape and in the middle of it was a star symbol, exactly like what he sees before when he was on Earth, especially when someone signs a contract with the devil. At the moment, the rune was glowing in dark purple color and for a while, the place he's currently standing on is cover in black mixed purple steam.

However after a while, the black-purple steam disappeared, and the satanic rune also stops glowing and then suddenly, a Black-purple shadowy figure appeared and stared at Prime fiercely, and said:

"It has been billions of years since I last spoke with someone. After so long, I thought I would be trapped here for all eternity without being able to talk to someone, but who would have thought I was lucky enough to meet someone before my time is up," said the black-purple shadow in a sorrowful tone.

"Huh? Who the heck are you?" said Prime curiously.

"Well, it's a long story and even if I told you who I am, you probably won't believe me anyway and think that I'm delusional,"

"? Whether or not I believe you, it's none of your concern, but I'm curious to know who you are," said Prime calmly.

During the time when he was alive billion years ago, everyone would respect and worship him as the "Almighty Human God", but this 16 years old boy in front of him was calmed and confident, and he didn't sense any fear coming out from Prime at all. It was at this moment, he felt like this kid must be fated to be his true disciple or true successor that he has been searching for a very long time.

'This boy, he's not normal, to be able to survive the dark energy as if it was nothing. Even a God would have a hard time against it, but this guy..... Hmm, I must make this boy my disciple no matter what before my time runs out,' the Black-purple shadow thought to himself.

"Very well, follow me then,"

"Huh? Where are we going?" said Prime curiously.

"You'll see soon,"
