Soaring Dragon Continent, Bottom of Mt. Zu
Having been blown back over seven meters by the demon bear, Qiu Zhen crashed through several trees. Boom! He finally stopped once he crashed into a boulder, and he coughed up several mouth full of blood.
His body was motionless, he couldn’t even feel one bone in his body. The strength of a demon bear truly is terrifying, because at this moment Qiu Zhen was on the verge of dying. His mind was fuzzy, bones broken, blood was leaking all over, and his eyes were slowly closing.
“I..I cannot..Die! Can’t...die!” Qiu Zhen kept repeating to himself time and time again, he wasn’t going to lose his will to survive and get his revenge. He has already died once, if he died again who knows what will happen.
Soon one eye closed followed by the next, this was it, Qiu Zhen truly was done for. Qiu Zhen appeared in a sky that was filled with countless stars. “Where am I?” Searching for any lifeform that could inform him, his search led him nowhere. “T-this can’t be the afterlife! I can’t die! Not yet, I have yet to kill Chang Chi!”
“Hohoho, so you’re the owner of the pendant. I always wondered what lucky soul would pick it up.” A voice that sounded distant yet close was heard in Qiu Zhen’s mind, he turned around several times but was unable to locate the owner.
“Don’t worry, I’m right here.” A bright light shined and once it dimmed down, what appeared was a green dragon. It’s body scaled over 1000 meters long, and it’s height was over 100 meters. The wing’s on its back spanned over 300 meters, and it’s scales had a shine to it. The eyes were azure blue, but if you looked deeper it would feel as if it was sucking you in.
Qiu Zhen shot a glance at the dragon and looked it straight in the eyes. He had questions, and he wanted answers. ‘What is the pendant, what other things can it do, why was he the one who found it.’ These question appeared in his mind, but he needed to know who this person was before all else. “You, who are you!”

“Me? I could ask you the same thing, who are you? What rights do you have to keep the Five Sky Turning Dragon Pendant?”
“Five Sky Turning Dragon Pendant? So that’s what it was called!”
The green dragon nodded it's head, then it closed its eyes. Swosh! The green dragon sent out its spiritual energy and it passed through Qiu Zhen’s body. He felt as if the energy wasn’t harmful, it was only searching for something.
“I see, the other four haven’t woken up yet.”
Qiu Zhen was trying to figure out what he meant before he realized that on his chest one of the dragons were gone. Connecting the dots he knew that the green dragon before him was one of the dragons that was on his chest.
“Since you are the owner of the pendant, i’ll tell you who I am. Around a few hundred millennium ago, I was once known as the Dragon of life. The power I hold hails in comparison to the other four dragons contained within the pendant, I can only grant healing properties. Considering the damage to your body it would seem I’ve awoken just in time, or else we would have never gotten reborn in this world.”
Qiu Zhen was stunned, this meant that the dragon was over 100,000 years old! The kind of knowledge that a being like that would hold is enormous, not to mention the type of power. This dragon was a part of the pendant meaning the other four dragons should wake up sometime soon also. If their power was anything like this dragon, then Qiu Zhen would be able to control the five of them. However, one thing caught his attention, the word ‘reborn’ wouldn’t this mean that they were dead?
“Senior, you said that you five were going to be reborn in this world correct?”
“Indeed, I said that. Us five dragons roamed the lands and each controlled a section of it, however dragons have endless life spans thus we cannot die. The only way for us to stay alive is if we go through rebirth, meaning we would start over from an egg and then turn back into adults. For countless years has it been that way, until ‘he’ came along.”

“He sealed us in a pendant trying to harness our power, but shortly after he died by a beast whose cultivation was way beyond his. That foolish Immortal thought that he was at the principle of strength, what he didn’t understand was that was just the beginning. With our bodies being sealed in the pendant all we could do was stay there, waiting for someone to find it.”
“Around 50000 years someone found it, but he didn’t understand its powers and sold it around as a mere accessory. Finally landing in the hands of a mortal woman who worshiped a god of evil. The citizens burned down the temple along with anyone in it or who worshiped the god, leaving her to a fate of death. The pendant was then forgotten about, and we were still in eternal sleep waiting to be reborn.”
“Twelve years ago when you broke the pendant trying to destroy it, you only managed to shaken us in our sleep. This however was enough for to come to an understanding, that you were the one who were to help us be reborn. The five dragons inside each have some kind of specialty, you’ve already learned three abilities of them. However, two still yet remain, but it’s better to find out as time progresses.”
Qiu Zhen bowed his head, his eyes were filled with admiration for these five dragons. “Senior, I understand.”
“Good, my brothers will wake up soon and then you’ll understand much more. I’ve repaired your injuries, and be sure to take good care of my dragon soul.”
After saying all that needed to be said, the green dragon disappeared and Qiu Zhen’s eyes awoken. When he awoke, he found out all his injuries have been healed, and his strength shot up one more realm. “A being that is truly worthy of being called the Dragon of life, It healed me fully!”
The time it took for Qiu Zhen to converse with the Dragon of life was merely a few seconds in the outside world, and the three demon bears were charging at Qiu Zhen. His chest expanded and he let out a deep breath, turning his eyes cold as a steel blade. “Come!”
Not wasting the slightest bit of movement, Qiu Zhen moved in an elegant manner and approached a demon bear. Pushing the qi in his fingertips he could tell that since he reached the second level of the Dao realm his qi really did expand by 100%.
His hands movements were quick as lightning stabbing into the bear, but this time it pierced the hide. Sadly it only went a little over two inches in, it wasn’t enough to kill it, but it was enough to show he made progress.
Being stabbed in the side, the demon bear swiped its paws at Qiu Zhen in full swing, only to catch his afterimage. Swish! Qiu Zhen disappeared and once more stabbed the bear, he wasn’t giving up. Out the corner of his eye Qiu Zhen noticed that the other bear was getting ready to attack, but Qiu Zhen was full of confidence.
“Not this time!” His figure blurred leaving the bear swiping air, you can tell that it was enraged.
Moving three meters away from the demon bear Qiu Zhen couldn’t continue to fight like this or else he would expend all his qi and he would really be on the losing end. Searching his surroundings Qiu Zhen was making out for any object he could use. “Weapon, I need a weapon!”
His eyes landed on a piece of rock that was in the shape of a blade. It was only one meter long, but this is exactly what he needed.
The there demon bears must have sensed that Qiu Zhen spotted the rock and moved to guard against it. But how could their speed compare to Qiu Zhen’s, he easily blew past them. Picking up the rock Qiu Zhen infused it with his qi essence making it a valuable weapon, and his killing intent skyrocketed.
“Come! Let the real battle begin!”

The Book of Hickory
Now why did Hickory go and punch that Angel? Sure it spooked him, popping up right there at lunch, and yet, it wasn't fear that balled his hand into a fist - Cause wouldn't you? Wouldn't anyone - with a sick Ma at home, Da long dead, buried, all them prayers piling up on bruised knees, unanswered? Hickory was angry, all right. He was fierce, now - cause that Angel didn't show up to give no help, that Angel came by asking for it - with all that power just plain to see, the power to fix the world and all that ails it! And now look what poor Hickory has to do - to save the world? Now how is he supposed to do that when its taking near everything he's got - just to keep them chickens safe, Ma fed, and himself out of trouble - All he wanted was maybe just a dance with May, maybe a bit more, to hold her close? That she's sweet, now, a voice like an angel, but now she's over there lookin at him like he's more than a man. And that's not to say Hickory is bad, not all the time, not ever on purpose - just there are things a man has to - That drinking and fighting ain't wrong just as long as the chores are done proper first, that those parts of life that make it worth living ain't no sin, that loving a lady is proper and Hickory just has so much love to give! And May is special, right, sweet and soft, now she's sophisticated. That she wears her passion like a pearl necklace? That certainly Hickory would notice, naturally - that she's already spoken for, perhaps taken? That ever since Hickory came back, that all she can think about is swallowing - those strange feelings, because it wouldn't do, would it? For a Lady? But certainly she can worship him and still be seen with Weston Covanger? Because Weston needs May, that what happens in the Study is only half the battle, the Men's Business, and he's far too proud to settle for half of anything. That if he wants to move up the ranks of his family, to be more than a Covanger, to become the Covanger? He's going to need a woman in the Kitchen as well - he's going to need May. And if that seems a bit old fashioned? A bit too much like the Wild West? Well the West is starting to get wild again now that everyone starts to Drink. A different take on LitRPG where answers aren't given - they must be earned, discovered and fought for, one at a time. An orator style, a long read, filled with magic buildings, crafting, alchemy, but most of all - This is a story about the human spirit. About understanding what defines a person, their morals, their beliefs, and also faith when everything they understand becomes challenged - changed. So do they. People can change. They will. Just not always for the better, not always - sometimes. Sometimes that's enough. Sometimes that's even everything.
