Already found.
No need to wait anymore.
Whether itâs the lonely autumn or the bitter cold of winter, all hardships eventually fade with time. The warm sun has returned, and even the immortal monster seems to glow with life once more.
âMasterâŠâ
âIâve finally found youâŠâ
The surface of chaos rippled endlessly, converging into unityâa symbol of both the beginning and the end of all things.
It bore witness to the passage of time and the immeasurable duration of the witchâs wait. Now, however, the supreme witch had awakened from her eternal slumber.
Her long, light gray-silver hair flowed in the chaotic currents, brushing against her calm face as it moved through the shadows of time. Her expression conveyed profound emotions without words.
Was it joy, love, or anticipation?
Krisha herself couldnât tell.
All she knew was that dim shadows must eventually return to the light, and lost items must find their way back to their rightful owners. Only then could they retain their value and purpose.
âPlease wait just a little longer,â her soft voice echoed in the silent chaos. âI will be there soon.â
The witch departed, her figure traversing vast distances of time and space. Breaking through the barriers of countless dimensions, she sought the light she had once lost.

âPfft, cough, cough!â
On the way to the capital, Xu Xi was flying atop the red dragon. The sky was bright blue, and the wind rushed past him as they soared toward the Extraordinary General Administration.
But all of a sudden, Xu Xi coughed violently and felt a chill run down his spine.
âStrange⊠Why do I have an ominous feeling?â He steadied his breathing, trying to calm his nerves, but confusion clouded his thoughts.
Could a new extraordinary disaster be on the horizon?
It seemed unlikely.
With his current strength, defeating any ordinary extraordinary foe would be childâs play. Only enemies from another timeâgods or immortals with power beyond mortal comprehensionâcould justify this unease.
âStill, I donât think itâs that,â he muttered.
âWhat is it, then?â
âIt canât be⊠Is my body just acting up for no reason?â
Xu Xi frowned as he delved into his thoughts, searching his memory for anything he might have overlooked. Yet after several reviews, nothing seemed out of place.
His plans for crafting a hybrid weapon of a flying sword and wand were already taking shape, and all that remained was acquiring the necessary materials from the Extraordinary General Administration. His combat abilities and cultivation level were also progressing steadily.
Suddenly, a realization dawned on him.
âI almost forgotâI was so focused on preparing dragon blood that I neglected to gather grass seeds.â He sighed, a little relieved. âOrdinary seeds canât endure dragon blood. Iâll need to source a batch from the General Administration.â
With his thoughts clarified, Xu Xi felt more at ease.

The red dragon Rex Sanchez flew tirelessly, carrying Xu Xi across the vast landscape. Its immense wings cast huge shadows on the ground below, creating waves in treetops and stirring dust and rocks across the terrain.
The speed at which they traveled far surpassed any known biological limit, outpacing many modern weapons. Before long, the capitalâs sprawling outline came into view.
A unique blend of the extraordinary and the technological, the city showcased a breathtaking mix of ancient and modern elements. High-rise buildings stood alongside floating spirit boats and flying pavilions. Sword-wielding cultivators flew in formation with new-age fighter jets, while martial artists engaged in combat against creatures from Western fantasy.
The capital was the hub of the most developed extraordinary economy, home to unparalleled resources and innovation. Together, these elements fostered an extraordinary prosperity unmatched elsewhere.
âItâs far more spectacular than it looks on TV,â Xu Xi remarked, standing atop the red dragon and gazing at the vibrant city below. He could clearly see that the extraordinary beings in the capital far outnumbered those in Yanshan City, and their quality was equally impressive.
âThis is what youâd expect from the seat of the Extraordinary General Administration,â he said with a sigh.
In the past, before he had the simulator, Xu Xiâs aspirations were modestâhe had only hoped to heal his legs and experience a bit of adventure. Little did he know that his simulation training would elevate him to the ranks of the most envied powerhouses. The grand adventure he had once dreamed of now seemed trivial by comparison.
Modern enchanted weapons like the Holy Light Gatling gun, Thunder Sniper Rifle, Xuanwu Heavy Tank, and Yalong Fighter jets intrigued him briefly, but only from a technical perspective. Their power was nowhere near enough to pose a threat to someone of his level.
âXiao Hong, why did you join the Extraordinary Control Bureau?â Xu Xi asked, looking down at the dragon beneath him.
Dragons, known for their obsession with wealth, were more inclined to plunder than work under human authority.
âNaturally, it was for peace and justice!â the red dragon replied.
âBe honest.â Xu Xi tapped his wand lightly against the dragonâs head, causing it to flinch.
âAlright, I lost a fight.â Rex Sanchez quickly admitted the truth.
As Xu Xi had suspected, after arriving in the real world, the red dragonâs first instinct was to raid and conquer, claiming territory to become a feared dragon lord. But this plan was thwarted almost immediately.
A white-haired old man wielding a sword appeared and defeated the red dragon in a single strike.
âThat had to be a true god!â Rex Sanchez said earnestly. âIt wasnât that I was too weakâthe opponent was simply too strong. The holy realm canât stand against a god. Itâs only natural!â
âGodâŠâ Xu Xi murmured.
As they approached the Extraordinary General Administration, Xu Xiâs gaze fell on its magnificent structure.
Narrowing his eyes, he pondered aloud, âPerhaps it wasnât a god, but a sword immortal.â
Gods and true immortals existed on the same level of greatness. Based on the red dragonâs description, the figureâclad in a Taoist robe and wielding a swordâseemed far more likely to be an immortal.
âThis is unexpected,â Xu Xi mused. âTo think thereâs a true immortal in the real world.â
âNo wonder the extraordinary outbreaks have lasted so long, yet order in the real world remains stable. It turns out the Extraordinary Control Bureau has true immortals assisting them.â
âCould it be that humanity has inherited this legacy? Or are immortals from other worlds lending their aid?â Xu Xi wondered.
