Bio-engineered Dinosaur in the immortal world

As the air grew still, a weak, trembling voice broke the silence around them.

"W-Wait…"

It was the Homo Deva Squad leader.

His body was battered.

His robes were torn.

His makeup was smudged.

Yet, despite his miserable state, he still found the strength to speak.

And—

His eyes locked onto Glock'Nine.

"O Mighty Dragorooster, O Esteemed Glock'Nine!"

His voice dripped with admiration.

His tone was reverent.

"This woman…"

His finger pointed at Xi Na.

"She knows nothing of your true greatness."

Xi Na froze.

Wei Long narrowed his eyes.

But the Homo Deva Squad leader continued.

"Glock'Nine, your beauty is unparalleled! Your power is unmatched!"

"You deserve more! Far more!"

Glock'Nine's head tilted slightly.

His beady eyes gleamed with curiosity.

The leader grinned.

"She is unworthy of you."

"But me? I understand you! I revere you! I adore you!"

"Let ME be your master instead!"

Suddenly, the air grew tense.

Wei Long felt it.

A shift.

A dangerous shift.

Glock'Nine stepped forward.

His massive claws scraped the dirt.

His wings twitched with interest.

"Oh?"

His voice was slow.

His eyes gleamed.

"You understand me?"

The Homo Deva Squad leader nodded eagerly.

"Yes! Yes, I do!"

Glock'Nine hummed.

Then—

He turned to Xi Na.

His beak opened slightly.

"Well, Xi Na? What do you say?"

Xi Na tensed.

Her hands clenched into fists.

She felt it slipping.

Her chance.

Her only hope of taming this beast.

And then—CRUNCH!

A sickening sound.

A wet, squelching noise.

The Homo Deva Squad leader's body stiffened.

His eyes widened.

Then—

He was gone.

A single stomp.

A single moment.

Wei Long's massive foot came down.

And the Homo Deva Squad leader was reduced to paste.

A wet splatter.

A mess of flesh and bone.

Wei Long slowly lifted his foot.

A small puddle of red and pulp remained.

He exhaled.

"You talk too much."

Silence.

Xi Na froze.

Her breath caught in her throat.

The other cultivators paled.

But—

Glock'Nine?

Red'Ribbon?

They barely reacted.

Glock'Nine glanced at the mess.

"Meh."

Red'Ribbon yawned.

"Saw that coming."

Then—they just moved on.

As if nothing had happened.

Glock'Nine turned back to Xi Na.

He bowed his head slightly.

A glow appeared above his head.

A strange, pulsating red light.

It flickered.

It pulsed.

It beckoned.

Glock'Nine's voice was firm.

"Hurry up. Don't waste my time."

Xi Na was still stunned.

But she forced herself to nod.

She took a deep breath.

She stepped forward.

Then—

She paused.

Glock'Nine's beady eyes locked onto her.

His voice was cold.

"I hope you're telling the truth."

His claws twitched.

His aura surged.

"Because if you're not…"

His beak clicked.

"I'll demolish you."

Xi Na shuddered.

She understood.

This was not a mere pact.

This was a trial.

A test of trust.

And if she failed…

She wouldn't just lose the chance.

She would lose her life.

She extended her hand.

The red glow pulsed.

Her fingertips touched the light.

And then—

The world trembled.

The earth shuddered.

The air crackled.

A wave of spiritual energy exploded outward.

The ground split apart.

The sky twisted.

A roar echoed from the void.

A presence descended.

A force beyond comprehension.

Red light engulfed them.

Xi Na felt her soul being pulled.

Her mind was flooded with visions.

Images of beasts, war, fire, and blood.

A connection ancient and primal.

Something powerful.

Something alive.

The bond was forming.

And then—the light vanished.

The tremors ceased.

The air stabilized.

The world returned to normal.

And when the glow faded completely…

Xi Na staggered.

Glock'Nine stared.

Everyone stood in stunned silence.

Because something had changed.

Something they have no idea but they could feel it. It was something unexplainable.

And then—it's done.

The moment the bond was sealed, the air erupted with noise.

Glock'Nine threw his wings into the sky. His enormous scarlet feathers fluttered, catching the dim glow of the setting sun.

His beady black eyes twinkled with triumph, and his razor-sharp beak opened wide as he let out a victorious cackle.

"AHAHAHAHAHA! FINALLY! FINALLY! I HAVE A HUMAN TAMER! A MORTAL HAS SUBMITTED TO ME! MY NAME SHALL ECHO ACROSS THE SECTS!"

Xi Na, who had just finished the ritual, was still dazed, but the moment she heard that arrogant laugh, she barely held back an eye twitch.

"What do you mean, you have a human tamer?! I am the one who tamed you!"

Glock'Nine turned his massive head, his glowing red crest swaying like a crown.

"Nonsense! It is I who has permitted you to serve me! You should be bowing in gratitude, Xi Na!"

Xi Na's eye twitched harder.

Before she could respond, a chorus of clucks, screeches, and squawks erupted.

The Henragens were going wild.

Ugly, twisted, reptilian hens flapped their scaled wings.

Their long, clawed feet stomped on the dirt as they danced and screeched in celebration.

"Our master has a tamer! Our master has a tamer!"

"Will we get more food now?!"

"Does this mean we're part of the sect too?!"

"DO WE GET TO RAID HUMAN CITIES?!"

Xi Na froze.

"No! No raiding human cities!"

But the hens weren't listening.

They were chanting.

Dancing.

A whole horde of hideous feathered beasts was jumping around.

Red'Ribbon, who had been silent most of the time, let out a little long bored sigh.

"Tch. Too noisy."

But even he couldn't hide the slight smirk on his beak.

Glock'Nine suddenly turned to Red'Ribbon with a wide grin.

"YOU SEE THAT?! YOU SEE THAT, RED'RIBBON?! I TOLD YOU I'D GET A TAMER BEFORE YOU! YOU'RE GONNA BE THE ONLY PATHETIC DRAGOROOSTER WITHOUT ONE! AHAHAHAHA!"

Red'Ribbon rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, yeah, congrats. Now shut up and piss off before I peck your beak off."

The Henragens laughed.

The air was filled with chaotic, victorious screeches.

Xi Na was getting a headache.

And yet—

For the first time in her life, she felt something.

A connection.

A true bond with a beast.

She had spent years in the Blood Boar Sect.

Had trained countless Blood Boars.

Had fought alongside brutal, mindless demonic beasts.

But this—

This felt different.

Glock'Nine was a monster.

But he was her monster now.

She let out a deep breath and nodded.

"Alright, alright! Enough celebrating! We still have work to do!"

The Henragens ignored her.

They were too busy screeching.

"VICTORY! VICTORY! VICTORY!"

"OUR MASTER IS NOW A LEGEND!"

"LONG LIVE MASTER GLOCK'NINE!"

"MORE FOOD! GIVE US MORE FOOD!"

"SOMEONE LAY AN EGG!"

"I CAN'T LAY AN EGG, YOU IDIOT! I'M A MALE!"

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE MALE!? WE ARE ALL FEMALES UNLIKE MASTER GLOCK'NINE!!!"

"HAHHAHAAHHAH!"

It was absolute chaos.

And through it all, Wei Long stood there on the side silently.

He wasn't smiling.

He wasn't laughing.

He wasn't celebrating.

His glowing golden eyes were locked onto the floating system screen before him.

The data on his tamed humans was displayed.

[Tamed Humans:]

Xi Na – Blood Boar Sect Disciple.

Zou Fang – Autumn Dragon Sect Disciple.

However, Wei Long's gaze wasn't on them.

His gaze was below Xi Na's name.

A new entry has appeared.

[Tamed Human's Registered Temporal Beast:]

Glock'Nine – Dragorooster (Temporarily Bound).

And then—

A blinking message appeared.

[Would you like to Bio-Enhance the Registered Temporal Beast to the tamed Xi Na?]

Wei Long's breath hitched.

His mind raced.

His goal had always been control.

Control over Xi Na.

Control over Zou Fang.

Control over the Blood Boar Sect through Xi Na.

Control over the Autumn Dragon Sect through Zou Fang.

From there, he could control his space in the immortal world where he could tour whenever and wherever he wanted.

And now—

This?

This was an unexpected gift.

Why would he turn this away? It would be stupid to do so.

Wei Long's lips curled into a grin.

"Tch. That loudmouth. Let's see how he handles this."

His clawed finger hovered over the screen.

And then—

He pressed 'Yes.'

At that exact moment, Glock'Nine was still boasting, laughing, and celebrating.

"I SHALL NOW LEAD MY HEN HAREM INTO A NEW ERA! WITH A HUMAN TAMER, MY GLORIOUS NAME SHALL BE—"

Then—

It hit him.

A sudden, overwhelming force.

It crashed into his body like a divine hammer, not just in his head but to his whole body! No—even to his spirit!

Although he was standing there, his body felt numb from the unknown invisible impact.

His feathers stood on end.

His muscles spasmed.

His bones groaned.

Glock'Nine's eyes bulged.

His beak snapped shut.

And then—

"UWAAGGHHH! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!"

His entire body trembled.

His claws dug into the ground.

His wings snapped outward.

Energy—raw, violent, and uncontrollable—seemed to have exploded inside him.

The Henragens stopped celebrating.

Xi Na stiffened.

What's going on?

Red'Ribbon tilted his head.

"Huh. That's new."

Glock'Nine collapsed onto his knees.

His massive body twitched uncontrollably.

"AAARGGHHH! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING TO ME?!"

His feathers shone with a crimson glow.

His veins bulged with an unknown force.

His claws cracked the ground beneath him.

"IT HURTS! BUT—"

His beady black eyes widened.

A shiver ran down his spine.

"BUT IT ALSO FEELS STRANGELY… GOOD?"

Wei Long chuckled darkly.

"That's the spirit."

The energy kept building.

Kept growing.

Kept pushing his body to its limits.

"UURRGHHH! IT FEELS LIKE MY BLOOD IS BOILING! LIKE MY BONES ARE MELTING! BUT AT THE SAME TIME—"

His eyes gleamed with madness.

"I'VE NEVER FELT STRONGER!"

His aura exploded outward.

The ground quaked.

The air vibrated.

The Henragens backed away in fear.

Xi Na shielded her eyes.

Red'Ribbon narrowed his gaze.

Wei Long's grin widened.

And then—

BOOOOOM!

A final, earth-shattering explosion of energy covered everyone's eyes!
