Chapter 1384 - 1384: Rewards
"Just what was that dark energy?" He asked himself, frowning. "Oh right! The bottle!"
He didn\'t think too much about the energy. Instead, he soon shifted his focus to the bottle. He wondered if he managed to fill it up. Or was he shirt because of that dark energy.
There was a part of him that made him feel like he had failed. If he hadn\'t failed, why was he still in this world?
He pulled out the bottle from his pocket and observed it. "What?"
As he looked at the bottle, he realized that there was not a single droplet of blood inside. However, he wasn\'t disappointed. There was something else in the bottle instead.
The bottle was completely empty except for the one key that was lying inside.
He wondered if he could open the bottle to bring out the key. The key was certainly a path to escape this trial. As for how that was going to happen, he wasn\'t sure.
"It opens!" He let out, seeing the cap of the bottle actually open. It wasn\'t sealed anymore. He had never felt this elated before.
The bottle couldn\'t be opened before it was filled. And after it was filled, it had a key which could be taken out. That made him feel like he was on the right path.
He opened the bottle and pulled out the key from inside.
The small golden key had a small formation carved on it. As soon as the formation was touched by Long Chen, it started shining. A door appeared before Long Chen with a lock.
He used the key and opened the lock before pulling the door open.
"Finally!" He grinned as he stepped inside the portal, laughing.
The door and the portal disappeared. The universe once again returned to silence as Long Chen left it, but not before destroying two worlds and killing everyone in the third world. The universe had changed forever. And so did Long Chen.
...
Long Chen appeared back inside the fake Bloodline temple.
"Back!" He exclaimed before tossing the bottle aside. Finally, he didn\'t need to carry that damned thing anymore!
As the bottle crashed into the ground, it shattered into small pieces.
Ignoring the bottle, Long Chen walked to the other end of the room where another door existed. After going through so many trials, he already had some basic ideas. He knew that it was the time for him to receive gifts from the fake Bloodline Temple.
He didn\'t want to deny the gifts. Even though it wasn\'t the Real Bloodline Temple, all the rewards that were given by this Temple were the ones that were stolen by Tian Shen from the real Bloodline Temple.
Pushing the dark door open, he calmly stepped on the other side.
As he stepped inside, he found himself in a different form. There were four bottles in the room, one on each corner.
And all the bottles had a different color of the liquid. One had red; others had blue, green, and yellow.
"Medicine to make me stronger?" He walked towards the bottle filled with blue liquid but didn\'t touch it. He wasn\'t sure if all four were for him or only one. If his reward was only one, the other three were going to disappoint.
He bent forward and smelled the bottle.
"Yeah. I can smell some herbs in this. So these are elixirs. Each of the four must have a different purpose. But I can\'t drink any. This place can\'t be trusted. I must ask Xun first."
He picked up the blue bottle and looked around. The other three bottles hadn\'t disappeared though. "Intriguing. So all four are for me. That\'s good."
He walked back to the yellow bottle and picked it up as well before picking up the other two. He kept all the bottles in his storage ring.
As soon as Long Chen finished, another door appeared before him. He pushed the door open and stepped inside.
Everything turned white.
The next moment, he found himself back in the same old space where he had left.
"Ah, there you are! Where had you gone? And how is it that you\'re back so fast? If you had gone to the outside world, just one second would have been a thousand years here. You\'re back in less than a year of this space. That means you were outside for only a millisecond? Why even waste this one year then?"
As soon as Long Chen came back, he heard the scolding of the old man.
"And why are your clothes so dirty?"
Long Chen opened his eyes slowly, frowning. He thought the time he spent in the outside world would be more here. But the time of the universe he had gone to was running parallel to the time of this space? This was surprising.
However, what was it about clothes? He looked down. His clothes were very dirty. They were the same as they were at the end of this trial.
"So it was my real body that went," he muttered as he stood up.
"Y-your eyes... What happened to them?" The old man asked Long Chen, noticing his eyes.
"Eyes? What do you mean?" Long Chen asked, frowning. He didn\'t know that his eyes had changed.
The old man clapped his hand, making a mirror appear before his eyes. "This!"
"I\'m asking why are your eyes pitch black? They\'re so similar to the eyes of Demons! Why? What did you do? Where have you gone?"
"And what is this foul aura around you? Such Heavy Killing Intent? Answer me truthfully! What did you do!" The old man asked.
"I can\'t reply, old man. It\'s beyond your scope of understanding.? I\'ll only drag you inside by telling you," Long Chen lazily said. "As for the killing intent? It\'s just because I killed some insects on the way back."
"Some insects or millions of insects?" The old man asked, grimly.
"Billions of insects," Long Chen answered calmly, as if the number was so ordinary that it didn\'t matter.
The old man was taken aback. "Killing billions? Just what the heck? Why?"
"Since that was the only way to get back," Long Chen replied. "That\'s all I can say."
"Now, can we get back to the training? I\'m pretty excited to get some stretching," he smirked, stretching his arms.
