The Blade of Tiamat's presence was radiating a regal menace that felt very ancient.
The weapon looked nothing like anything belonging to the mortal world.
It wasn't a medieval longsword, nor a katana, nor any recognizable earthly blade. Its design was like something forged before structure existed, before the concept of symmetry or standard craft.
A single-edged blade, long and sleek yet irregular, the cutting side impossibly smooth while the blunt side was jagged, almost like crystallized lightning frozen mid-strike.
Dark purple metal shaped its entire body, almost black under low light, but when Liam stepped closer, streaks of purple-gold shimmered faintly through the uneven edges.
Liam tilted the blade ever so slightly and he appreciated the weapon. He let out a soft breath.
"…Beautiful," he murmured.
After observing the weapon's appearance, he decided to check its description.
[Blade of Tiamat] (Sealed)
Description: A legendary blade forged from the authority of Tiamat, Dragon Mother of Chaos. Though sealed, it contains primordial draconic might.
Effects (Sealed):
• Deals catastrophic damage to dragons, gods, and colossal entities.
• Converts mana into chaos-infused destructive slashes.
• Ignores partial defensive spells and magical barriers.
• Resonates strongly with draconic materials and bloodlines.
Sealed State: Full power requires three catalysts:
– Dragon Essence
– Chaos energy
– Divine Authority
Note:
Once unsealed, this blade can wound gods.

Liam stared at the description for a long moment.
Then a slow, genuine, deeply satisfied smile spread across his face.
"…Yeah. This is way better than I expected."
Even sealed, this wasn't just powerful. It was disrespectfully powerful.
A weapon that ignored defenses? One that naturally harmed gods? One that ran on chaos mana?
He chuckled under his breath.
"This is definitely becoming my main weapon someday."
But he didn't touch the blade. He has no idea if he would fall under an illusion and he doesn't want to find out. Also, he wants to keep the surprise that the blade has in store for him until later.
Since Liam was done with checking the description of his weekly sign-in rewards, it was time to leave the Dimensional Space. But before he doesn't that, he wants to check up on Yanxia and the Gaia's Heartstone he planted, to see both their progress.
With a soft exhale, he took off and first flew in the direction of the Heartstone. It was in the opposite direction of where Yanxia is and more closer to his current position.
He arrived at the spot a few minutes later and when he looked down, he saw that the area where he had planted the Heartstone now had a patch of lush green to it.
And in the very center and exactly where he had planted the Heartstone, a tiny sprout pushed through the soil.
Liam descended to the ground, crouched beside the sprout and touched one leaf.
"Good. Very good," he murmured.
It will take a while to terraform the whole of the Dimensional Space, but as they say, Rome wasn't built in a day. He will have to give it time.
Besides, it was able to achieve this in less than six Earth days—over nine months inside the Dimensional Space.
He felt that after a decade of Dimensional Space time, the transformation would be completed and this place would be transformed from a barren world to a one suitable and able to easily sustain life.
Also, with the combination of the Heartstone and the Eternal Qi Vein, the Dimensional Space is going to be a holy land of cultivation and a treasure trove too.
"This is going to be ridiculous," he whispered with satisfaction, as he stood up.
He turned sharply and shot into the air once more, and started flying in Yanxia's direction.
It didn't take long before a pillar of blazing sphere of burning-red and gold aura floating above the ground, came into view.
Even from a mile away, Liam could see its brightness cut across the world like a miniature sun.
He slowed his flight.
The air around her rippled violently, heat distorting space. It should have been unbearable—even fatal—to anything alive. But Liam felt nothing, thanks to her being his bonded beast.
Liam would had never thought that he would receive a Three-Legged Golden Crow from the system and one that has a cultivation level of the Golden Immortal Realm. It was absurd to think of something like that.
He hovered several meters away from the fire sphere.
Yanxia was inside.
He couldn't see her directly but he could feel her presence. Her cultivation was stable, though intense. He could sense the way her spiritual energy churned, refining, compressing, rebuilding.
She was growing and rapidly at that. The solidification of her cultivation foundation has progressed significantly. But it will still take her a while to complete it.
He crossed his arms, observing the sphere in silence.
"This girl…" he murmured. "She's going to become a monster."
And he meant that in the best way possible.
Not that she isn't already is.
Her flames crackled, expanding another meter in radius, then condensing sharply.
Liam smiled faintly.
"She'll be fine."
After another moment of silent observation, he decided not to disturb her further.
With a final glance at the burning orb, he left the Dimensional Space and returned back to Seoul, standing in the dark alley he had left from.
From the alley, he launched himself skyward.
Air whipped past him as he shot into the sky, clearing the buildings with ease, rising until the entire Gangnam district glittered beneath him like a sea of neon stars.
He floated there, suspended effortlessly above Seoul.
He had traveled through oceans, crushed fear, explored cities, fought people, helped strangers, enjoyed food, sparred in a dojang, interacted with normal humans, collected system rewards, and witnessed mythic visions—all in a single week.
This is definitely his best week, right behind the week he got the system.
"Tonight's going to be interesting," he said, letting the cold breeze wash over him.
He angled his body and began gliding toward Hongdae. The cityscape blurred below him, lights streaking like ribbons as he flew.
