Gensokyo, a Minecraft template, starting experience from plucking flower fields.

"coming!"

Yakumo Yukari looked up at the sky, and Bai An followed her gaze.

The sky cracked like shattered glass, followed by an overwhelming sense of oppression.

A halo descended from the sky, enveloping the entire world.

"call--"

As a deafening dragon's roar subsided, a crack appeared in the sky.

A powerful, cyan claw emerged from the crack and pressed down on the rift in space.

The sky suddenly changed.

The sky was originally clear.

Dark clouds gathered, thunder roared, and the wind and clouds surged.

A vast and majestic aura, so powerful that it compels one to submit and worship, spread from the sky and covered the entire world.

This was an oppressive force emanating from the level of life itself; even Yakumo Yukari was deathly pale and drenched in cold sweat.

Their strengths are on completely different levels.

"Roar!"

A colossal dragon, ten thousand meters long and entirely green, coiled in the air, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, its whiskers fluttering, its enormous golden eyes radiating a chilling light.

She roared to the sky, as if announcing her return.

Yakumo Yukari bit her lip, clenched her fingers, her nails digging deep into her palms, using the pain to maintain her composure.

"Is this the Dragon God? The special effects are amazing."

A puzzled murmur came from the side. Yakumo Yukari turned her head and saw that Bai An was completely unaffected except for his shock.

Bai An's strength could not possibly surpass that of the Dragon God. The only possibility is that he surpasses the Dragon God in rank, and even surpasses the rank of the world consciousness, thus offsetting the huge gap in strength.

Thinking this, Yukari Yakumo gave a wry smile. With Bai An's potential and talent, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed the Dragon God. If the seal could have lasted for a few hundred more years, he wouldn't be in such a sorry state now.

"Zi, what are you thinking about?"

Bai An's voice came from beside her ear, instantly waking Yakumo Yukari. She turned her head, looked at Bai An, and shook her head slightly.

"fine."

She focused her attention on the sky, where the Dragon God had already manifested from the void, waiting for its body to fully enter the world.

With a thought, Yakumo Yukari conjured up a series of large-scale formations. As the formations operated, the world began to tremble, as if the heavens and earth were about to collapse.

"The boundary between life and death—!"

"The realm of movement and stillness—!"

...

With each word Yakumo Yukari uttered, a series of realms were applied to the Dragon God, rendering it unable to move for a moment.

"Zi, are you really that powerful? You can even trap the Dragon God?"

Seeing the Dragon God struggling, Bai An asked in surprise, "The Dragon God is the world consciousness, how can Yakumo Yukari's realm have an effect on the world consciousness?"

"During this period, Gensokyo's rank has been promoted, and our strength has increased considerably. Moreover, the Dragon God has just awakened and is not at his peak; he is currently in a weakened state."

Yukari Yakumo shook her head, then continued to explain:

"Besides, even without applying any special techniques, given the Dragon God's current unclear state, she wouldn't be able to guess our plan, let alone take any countermeasures. We're just doing this to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Following her words, Bai An looked up into the air.

As expected, although the Dragon God's aura was very strong, it gave people a very chaotic feeling.

The golden dragon's eyes were glazed over, almost like those of a drunken Cui Xiang, leaving Bai An stunned.

As the formation was activated, the earth seemed to be pulled apart by a tremendous force, space collapsed invisibly, and the entire world began to gradually distort.

Watching the edge of the world crumble into fragments like shattered sand, Bai An suddenly shivered.

Although he didn't know if the collapse of the world would pose a threat to the Dragon God, he knew he definitely couldn't withstand it. If he was resurrected and didn't return to Gensokyo, then he would probably be in grave danger.

"Zi, you should go back first. All that's left is to wait for the world to officially collapse, destroy the portal, and sever the connection between the two worlds, right?"

Bai An turned his head and said to Yakumo Yukari.

He can handle the rest of the process alone; there's no need to risk the involvement of two people.

Yukari Yakumo didn't feign reluctance; there was no great use for her staying here, and she might even become a variable.

"Well, be careful."

Yakumo Yukari gave a brief instruction and then left.

After Yakumo Yukari left, Bai An stood up and went to the portal, ready to destroy it the moment the world collapsed.

"here we go."

The silent collapse proceeded quietly, the desolate world completely lost its color, time, space, and even matter slowly crumbled and eventually turned into nothingness.

In that instant, Bai An shattered the portal, sending fragments scattering across the ground. He collected them all into his backpack before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

Without the slightest hesitation, Bai An decisively drew a sword.

However, with his current health, stabbing him two or three times wouldn't have much effect.

Therefore, while committing suicide with his sword in his right hand, Bai An did not forget to throw dozens of packs of concentrated TNT from his backpack into the sky and detonate them.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, dust and smoke billowed everywhere, and the earth trembled violently.

The scene was more intense than any explosion, with flames shooting into the sky, smoke billowing, and a mushroom cloud rising straight up, obscuring all light.

The explosion gradually subsided after a long time.

Normally, an explosion of this magnitude would be enough to kill oneself two or three times.

But when the smoke and dust gradually dissipated and Bai An opened his eyes again, he was surrounded by a devastated land, and he was still standing in the same place, perfectly fine.

Am I really that tough?

Bai An was stunned, but he soon noticed that his body was wrapped in a light blue barrier. This barrier blocked the power of the explosion, preventing him from being injured.

It is obvious that this is the work of the Dragon God.

The sky was dark, and a figure could be vaguely seen floating in mid-air; it was none other than the Dragon God.

"roar~"

A furious roar erupted from the dragon god's mouth, shaking the eternal heavens.

Her massive dragon body coiled up, looking down at Bai An below. Her golden eyes were filled with rage. The world had collapsed, and the connection with the original world had been completely severed. How could she not understand that she had been tricked?

Looking at the murderous Dragon God and the protective shield surrounding him, Bai An was on the verge of tears. How the hell was he supposed to play this game? Wasn't the Dragon God supposed to be a bit slow right now? This was a total trap!

If that were all, it would be fine, but he clearly felt that his connection with Gensokyo had been severed by the Dragon God.

Even though it was the Dragon God, it couldn't affect his resurrection. However, because the Dragon God was the consciousness of Gensokyo, it was able to remove the resurrection point he had placed in Gensokyo.

This means that he can be resurrected, but only in the world he is currently in.

Thinking of this, Bai An leaned back and lay on the ground, his heart returning to peace in the face of his predetermined fate.

He took a ring out of his backpack and slowly put it on the ring finger of his left hand.

She had originally planned to go back and have Yuuka help her put it on again, but now it seemed like wishful thinking.

As the world was annihilated, everything around returned to deathly silence, and Bai An's consciousness also dissipated.

It seems we're about to breach the contract...

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, Yukari Yakumo silently counted the days, her fists clenched tightly.

Five seconds, four seconds, three seconds, two seconds, one second...

Time was up, but the bedside remained empty and silent. A deathly pallor appeared on Yakumo Yukari's exquisite face, and an indescribable sorrow welled up in her heart.

Did it fail?

"call--"

She exhaled a soft breath, then slowly sat up, raising her hand to rub her temples, her face displaying a complex expression.

Guilt, sorrow, self-blame...

A mix of negative emotions filled her chest, her eyes were slightly red, and there was a hint of moisture in them.

After a long while, she took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in her heart, and swept away all the sadness in her eyes.

She parted the gap, stepped inside, and returned to the Yakumo residence.

"Lord Zi, welcome back."

Ran Yakumo, who was wiping the window, stopped what she was doing, glanced at Yukari Yakumo who had returned, and continued wiping and cleaning. But the next second she suddenly stopped, turned around sharply, and stared intently at Yukari Yakumo's face.

"Lord Zi, you..."

Seeing her master's reddened eyes, Yakumo Ran was quite frightened.

The initiator of the Lunar War, the creator of Gensokyo, and a dignified youkai sage, actually cried.

This completely shattered her worldview, making it impossible for her to believe.

"Lan, what if we cause Bai An's death? Youxiang, she..."

"What!?"

Hearing what Yukari Yakumo said, Ran Yakumo almost threw the towel in her hand onto the ceiling.

Her pretty face changed instantly, her pupils contracted, and she stared blankly at Yakumo Yukari:

"Lord Zi, you...you must be joking. Besides, with Lord Bai's abilities, he can't die."

Yakumo Yukari gave a bitter smile, offering no further explanation, and uttered two words.

"Dragon God..."
