’A gentle warning? Or is everyone who tries to break through the cosmic barrier "rewarded" like this, as if they were shot out of a cannon?’

He dazedly surveyed the unfamiliar area around him.

Lince felt a wave of dizziness.

’You’ve got to be kidding me.’

’Considering my current size, the only thing that could have tossed me around like a beanbag had to be the will of the Cosmos itself.’

’So, where am I now?’

The sky was a vibrant blue.

The clouds were white.

The ground... Hmm?

’The ground is green?’

"Where in the world was I thrown?"

Lince looked down and saw the land below, both familiar and strange.

For a moment, he was truly stunned.

’Was I thrown inside a planet teeming with life?’

Snapping back to his senses, Lince immediately checked his condition.

Instantly, the expression on his draconic face froze.

He was no longer the behemoth stretching over three million kilometers from head to tail.

Now, he was only about ten meters long.

What’s more, Lince couldn’t mobilize any of his Star Energy Divine Power at all.

His Power had been completely sealed away.

Yet this seal didn’t cause his Spiritual nature any discomfort or distress.

It was as if this was how things were always meant to be—that Lince was supposed to be a Giant Dragon of about ten meters.

"What the hell?"

"Have I been sealed? Sealed by the will of the Cosmos?!"

It was only then that Lince truly realized how much trouble his recklessness had caused.

"A whelp!"

"I’ve actually been reverted to a young dragon."

Realizing he was in a predicament, Lince subconsciously called upon the True Game.

Thankfully, the True Game was still there.

That meant his connection to the Star Empire wasn’t severed, which was a small blessing in this unfortunate situation.

He could even use the True Game’s power to teleport back, but in his current state, returning was out of the question.

It would surely cause a major incident if he went back now.

However, when the data from the True Game appeared, Lince couldn’t help but feel his composure crack.

[Identity: Fiery Sun and Space Dragon] (Ancient Dragon) (Imperial Totem)

[Status: Authority Level Deity]

[Abnormal State]

(A warning from the will of the Cosmos: You have been regressed by the Time Law, your life state and power level reversed. All of your Power has returned to the primal, newborn state of the Dragon Race.)

[State: Young Dragon]

[Tier: Tier One]

[Bloodline: ???]

[Attribute: Main Fire Sub-Space, Full Elemental Affinity]

[Skills: Omitted (All Entry Tier Skills available to young Giant Dragons of any bloodline under the Dragon Race’s authority)]

’Time Law?’

’My life state and power level were reversed?’

’Isn’t this even more severe than being sealed?’

’Alright, the situation actually isn’t that serious. It’s not even a big deal.’

’After all, it’s just a warning.’

If Lince were willing to die right now, he could just resurrect and everything would be fine.

But dying was definitely not an option.

After all, resurrection wasn’t that simple.

Besides, a quick resurrection via the True Game would consume a massive amount of its reserves.

And according to the explanation provided by the True Game, the most crucial and energy-intensive part of resurrection was the regression and reconstruction of the soul.

For example, resurrecting Lince to his Authority Level state would cost half of the True Game’s total energy reserves, with half of that cost being for the regression and reconstruction of his soul alone.

Therefore, Lince wouldn’t do something like that.

And besides, compared to dying and resurrecting, with the True Game’s help, Lince actually had a much simpler method.

He could simply draw from the True Game’s reserves and pour a massive amount of energy directly into his current young dragon body.

As he was still an Authority Level Deity in essence, Lince had no fear of being overwhelmed and bursting from the influx.

So, in reality, this warning from the will of the Cosmos was just that—a warning.

Even without relying on the True Game’s power, as long as the environment around him had abundant Magic Power, Lince could quickly return to his original state.

Gaining one Tier a day, ascending to the level of a Deity in ten days was also easily achievable.

So, for now, Lince didn’t even plan to use the True Game’s power to return to his original state.

Because as long as he went through the steps of Ascension to Divinity once more, once he could enter the Star Sea, all he would need to do was enter a nearby Sun to rapidly return to his Authority Level state.

So, why bother making things more complicated by using the True Game’s reserves?

Therefore, in Lince’s eyes, his current state was no big deal.

In fact, being able to return to a weaker state again felt strangely nostalgic to Lince.

"So, what’s so special about this world, anyway?"

"Why else would I have been thrown here?"

Everything was an unknown.

But first, Lince needed to give his current body some means of self-preservation.

And so, a moment later, high in the heavens, the wingless young dragon, levitating with the power of the wind Element, began to continuously spit out Magic Crystals of exceptionally high quality.

Although Lince could quickly absorb a large amount of Magic Power from his current environment, doing so would certainly draw a lot of attention.

Thus, for the time being, Lince opted for a self-sufficient approach, directly using the Magic Crystals from his storage space in the True Game to restore himself.

After swallowing about thirty High Tier Magic Crystals, in less than three hours, Lince had once again regained the Ability of a High Tier—specifically, a Tier Seven—Giant Dragon.

Naturally, his draconic wings also grew back during this process.
