The Geared Immortal

Chapter 939

(Unedited)

…

Sucked inside a black hole is something that should have been an unpleasant experience. However, Shin Jiao is feeling a bit lightheaded at this moment after going through something like a long space tunnel.

Ruel died because her body was sucked inside the cracks of the sculpture which shredded her into pieces. But for Shin Jiao he was absorbed plus he is currently inside a large mech.

While looking at the monitor he could tell that the outer casing of the mech which is coated with black ore is in shambles. Even the strongest material suffered such damage, how much more if he was exposed. He could not imagine what would have happened to his body.

While looking around Shin Jiao found himself in total darkness. It is not space because there are no stars or the presence of any heavenly bodies.

Instead, it was just pure darkness.

"Hmm… No oxygen, no life, no light… This place is total darkness…" he muttered with a frown.

He continuously used the long-range scanning system of the mech but it still did not find anything inside the void.

"Hmm… I could have sworn that I saw the body of that fellow Ruel in this place…"

He then tried using the powerful lights of the mech but it was not that effective. Shin Jiao suddenly had an idea.

He pushed some buttons on the side of the cockpit and an array appears on the screen.

He then chooses a small object in those arrays that looks like a small missile. Then without hesitation, he quickly launched it in the voice.

Swoosh!!!

As soon as the missile launches, it flew in a straight line until it traveled for around 500 kilometers. Suddenly it exploded.

Then Shin Jiao clearly saw red lines all around him and immediately tried to analyze what is happening.

From what he could tell these red lines seem to form a sphere. The sphere's dimension from the distance of the impact of the missile seems to be a bit bigger than he expected. So as he tried to calculate everything in his mind, he began to deduct something.

After cross-referencing and calculating he soon determined where the center is.

Without hesitation, Shin Jiao directed his mech to fly towards the center of the void.

And true to his conjecture he immediately felt the presence of a powerful being within his vicinity.

Around 500 meters away from him from the void, he noticed a figure clothed in black lying sleeping in the darkness.

If not for his keen sense and sensitivity to the universe's energy, he would never find this body. Even if Ruel could enter this place, he doubted that that person could find his own body except if he uses some special technique.

But Shin Jiao knew that it is impossible as the memories of the souls are already absorbed by this body turning into a pure universe's energy.

While watching the unmoving figure, Shin Jiao's mech slowly approached little by little as he did not know what would happen next. In fact, he is wary of that demonic figure he had seen before entering this place.

When he was about 100 meters from the figure he immediately noticed something.

"Shadow energy…" he muttered.

Shin Jiao is familiar with this kind of energy as he is able to use their technique. As someone who has a firsthand encounter with the Shadow Beings and defeated them, he is more aware of their energy signature.

"Demon… show yourself!" shouted Shin Jiao.

Right as he finished his words, the darkness suddenly collapsed all around him and slowly forms into a huge shadow figure of a man.

The man is around 7 feet tall with a well-proportioned body and a handsome appearance. Though it is only a visage, Shin Jiao could already tell from the contour of his face that this man is somewhat good-looking.

"A human immortal is able to see me and notice my presence, what an interesting thing…" the shadow figure said with a smile.

"Well, I have fought someone like you before, so I am well aware of that energy signature emitted by you."

"Oh?... It seems that I have underestimated you. I thought the darkness array would be able to confuse you. That was an oversight on my part… Hehe… But, do you think you can still defeat me?" the shadow figure said with a smile.

Suddenly the shadowy figure of the man slowly transformed and turned into that of an Eastern dragon. It has a long body that's like a long snake, two powerful limbs that seem to be able to crush mountains, and a huge head that could devour worlds. The imposing figure of the dragon made Shin Jiao like he is going to face the most powerful opponent he had ever encountered in his entire life.

"Hahaha… It has been a long time since I was trapped in this place. I would like to congratulate you… For being the first to taste the new power…" the shadow dragon said in a loud voice as it hovers in the air while glaring at the mech.

"You have a weird artifact, a machine that can move like a man, just like a metal golem, but seems more nimble and agile… Well, let's see who is stronger then."

With that shout, the shadow dragon flew directly at the silver mech.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate and quickly grab the laser rifle on his side and then pointed it towards the flying beast.

Bzzzzz… Bwoom!

A large amount of energy flew straight to the beast at lightning speed. However, as it hits the surface of the beast it did not even have an effect. A strange powerful film seems to be covering its body.

Shin Jiao was a bit flabbergasted upon seeing the damage he inflicted. He knew that if a Grand Magus was hit by that large laser, one could not survive and would possibly be obliterated on impact. Even a nascent realm expert would not be left unscathed once hit by it. So, how could this dragon possibly be not affected by the laser?

Shin Jiao did not believe that this is possible, so he fired three more shots turning the tip of his large laser gun crimson red.

But as usual, the shadow dragon was not hindered and continues charging towards him.

"Damn it!" Shin Jiao curses as he gritted his teeth while he pressed a button on the side of the cockpit.

That button ejected an energy saber coming from the side of the mech.

As he held the energy saber, it connected to the mech's palm and a large amount of compressed mana was immediately used.

With a serious expression, Shin Jiao flew towards the charging dragon.

Bwoom!!! Whoosh!!!

The booster of the silver mech erupted to its maximum capacity as Shin Jiao completely floored the pedal on his feet.

Two figures, one a shadow dragon, the other a silver mech collided within the void.

The shadow dragon opens its large maw and readied its long claws for an attack while Shin Jiao's energy saber was placed on the mech's side.

Closing its huge maw as the dragon tries to bite off the head of the mech, Shin Jiao, on the other hand, maneuvers agilely and quickly dodge the dragon's sharp teeth.

Then the mech swings with all its might the energy saber to try and cut through the shadow dragon's neck.

But as the energy saber hits the neck, a fizzing sound could be heard as it passes through with ease on its outer scale. However, after passing through about an inch, it was deflected.

Right at this moment, a large claw came crashing towards the mech's body.

Shin Jiao did not have enough time to dodge as he decided to use the energy saber to block the large claws.

Even with the huge energy output from the energy saber, it is still not enough to cut through the tough skin of the shadow dragon.

"Hmmm… This thing… it's not in the level of a High Lord, right?" Shin Jiao muttered as he tried his best to resist the sharp claws of the beast.

He tried to continue attacking the beast but each hit from the energy saber and the mech's energy rifle has no effect.

"Human, your resistance is futile… You are too weak to fight against me…" the shadow dragon snarled.

Then suddenly it lashed its long tail like a long whip which caught Shin Jiao in its path due to their close proximity.

Wham!

The strong impact shook the whole cockpit and sent the silver mech flying in the void.

Its left arm was destroyed in that one attack and the debris was scattered in the space.

Shin Jiao frown upon seeing this. From the strong impact alone, he could tell that his conjecture was correct. The shadow dragon that he is fighting is around at the level of a High Lord. Even if he uses his own body, he would not be the opponent of this powerful being.

So the question is… how could he fight someone that is twice as powerful as his original cultivation level?
