Chapter 9: Attack on the Carriage
“Who are those people?” One of the men under Zhing Yin voiced out.
The warrior shrugged. “I don’t know but I don’t like the looks of them.”
Zhing Yin walked ahead and ordered the carriage driver to stop.
“You there, get out of our way!” The man ordered.
The middle men of the three stepped forward. “I’m sorry, we can’t. But we will for a toll.”
“A toll?” Zhing Yin repeated in disbelief. “Ridiculous, we know nothing of a toll!” Zhing Yin made a hand gesture, telling his men to prepare themselves for a fight.
“Well there is,” the middle man continued, “and the toll is… your lives!”
There was a sudden shaking of the ground. The ground beneath the carriage suddenly opened up, swallowing the carriage whole! The men around it reacted too late as the hole closed upand the ground began bulging, leading away from the men.
Zhing Yin ran back to the spot where the carriage had been. “An Earth Incantation! To think it would be this strong.”
“Sir… what do we do?”
“Follow the bulge in the ground. Whoever is doing this is trying to tunnel the carriage away!”
The men reacted to this order and followed the bulging ground into the forest but then a group of men came running out, forcing them to stop, except for Yin who continued barrelling forward. He raised his hand and spikes erupted from the ground, piercing those who were too slow to dodge.
“An Earth Element user! Just like the boss!”
This boss must be the one tunnelling the carriage away, Yin thought as he continued into the forest. He stopped when he sensed something familiar. He looked back at his men to issue a warning, “Earth Pikes!”

They all understood, as Earth Pikes, similar to those Yin had used on the enemy, burst from the ground. A few of Yin’s men were impaled but were able to evade the sharp spears of earth that shot out.
Yin also barely dodged an earthen spike that burst from under his feet. A man came running out of the forest, joining the rest of the bandits. He had brown hair and piercing eyes. It was then that Yin knew that this was the Earth user who tunnelled away the carriage.
“You, where did you tunnel the carriage to?” Yin pointed balefully at the man before him.
The man smiled cockily. “The carriage with the young lord is where it belongs.”
Damn, if he speaks the truth, then whatever plan these men had has worked. We need to get through them quickly.
The other three men rounded up and stood behind the guards to surround them. Yin looked at the enemies around his party with hate.
“All of you, kill this scum!” Yin looked at the man in front of him. “But leave the Earth using bastard to me!” Yin charged at the men while the others charged at the other men.

Alternate Worlds
This is actually a group of short stories I did some time ago. The first group are 3 stories, all starring the same Protagonist but with different foes and ways of how the stories play out. Past this I have other story lines that I have done this with and will likely use this heading to put them out there. - Note: The Book Picture is the location of the Portal the car went through. There are 4 such statues set across from each other and then two of the large pillars, set across the street from one another. New Story Line: Lost is about a man lost in a world that Used to have summoned hero's, ones where the mages who did the summonings did not close the pathways properly, so sometimes people from all across time, space, and dimension end up falling in to their world. Some become heroes, some 'Demon Lords' and some something else. I have 3 versions of this story which I will put here, one chapter a day. 2cd version was massively flawed, which I only realized while sharing it. As such I am skipping it and moving on to the 3rd version. The 3rd Story of Lost is about a man who mysteriously fell in to a world based on video games, complete with leveled zones, levels of skills, professions and so forth. Being from a world like ours, with the knowledge of these things, gives him a decided edge and better potential than normal. --------------------------------------- New story - New Life, Old Soul is the story of a man who used desperate experimental magic to grant himself a new life in a new world. This is an Iseki story with a single twist as no outside force dropped or summoned this soul to its new life. Come and see what sort of world and life this willing traveler of Realities unknown experiences. I will try and post once a day, though times may vary depending on my the wierdness that is my life. ^-^ ------------------------------ Cosmic Chaos A Void Maker tried to destroy several realities, by forcing their crystal shells in to each other. The AOs of those realms fought back the best they could, including a desperate play of opening random portals between the divergent universes and the void. Several things, peoples, and animals fell through these portals. In the grand scheme of things very little of this had long reaching consequences. However, Some of these universes gained new time lines from these events.This is a story of one such event, of one very lost traveler dropped in to a very different world than the one he came from. Tags: Isekai, Gender Change (Male to Female), Magic, Drama (lets face it most of my stories have a bit of this in them even when I don't tag them thus, though I don't know how 'Realistic' the characters are.) -------------------------------

Shadow Emperor
This is one of my side projects. It is about a young innocent boy, who has some mishap happening at the date of his birth. Through circumstances he is forced to strenghten himself. His fate was decided long ago, and this story is just the journey to his fate. It is very xianxia/xuanhuan-esque, with some Western elements mixed in. It is a cultivation novel, and it will have gore, sexual depictions, but to an extent. Most of the time it is either fun or exciting, as you will see an innocent boy's rise to the Emperor of the Shadows..
