Chapter 608 - Shock And Disbelief. Joy And Excitement.
They were inside a special hall in the central hill palace, which only Dean Lenix and three hill palace heads could access. There was a runic disk in this hall, which dean Lenix activated and a portal manifested inside that runic disk. There was another person in this hall, a middle-aged man, and he was one of the three hill palace heads called Arkhen.
The portal looked like a whirlpool with an unending path filled with silver and blue sparks.
"Arkhen, stay here and activate this device when I contact you from upper-chaosverse," Dean Lenix said before he turned to Athan and Linci, "let's go."
Dean Lenix, Athan, and Linci entered the portal as they appeared in a starry path filled with silver and blue force moving forward.
Athan was feeling a bit of pressure while Linci and Dean Lenix were fine. Linci was okay because this path wouldn't affect a person born in the upper-chaosverse and those who reached Evagon-realm.
They walked in this magically cosmic path for ten minutes before Athan saw a whirlpool portal that looked the same as the one from which they entered in this cosmic path.
However, he also felt more pressure and a barrier before that portal.
"Athan, this...is the barrier. Normally, people born into lower-chaoserverse and even lower would have to reach Evagon-realm to pass this barrier. However, you might be able to breach it if you cover yourself in your mystical black power," Dean Lenix said.
Athan nodded as he entirely covered himself in the abyssal darkness, "you two go first. I will just dash through this barrier because if I simply walk, It will rapidly consume my abyssal darkness, and I might get stuck since this barrier seems like it has infinite energy."
"It indeed has infinite energy, and It will instantly recover any damage to it in less than a millisecond," Dean Lenix said.
"Alright, I'll be going first," Dean Lenix said as he entered the portal first and disappeared.
Afterward, Linci looked at Athan as her eyes were filled with worry and her expression was anxious, "Athan, I...should I really go there? Father said that my mother's condition has worsened, so my presence in upper-chaosverse might trigger this power in her soul and flare-up."
"Nyaa! Don't worry. I will be able to sense your mother instantly once I go there and extract all Netherly frost from her body," Primo said as the cat stood on its hind leg and pounded its chest confidently with its cute paws.
"Don't worry and go. We will save your mother," Athan nodded and said with a reassuring smile.
Linci bit her lips and nodded with a smile. She trusted Athan and Primo.
After Linci entered the portal, Primo went inside Athan's void region before Athan dashed through the barrier.
*Swoosh...*
*Chreeeeee...*
Dean Lenix, Linci, and two more people were there on the other side in a hall.
Those two people were two middle-aged men, and their aura was at the high-stage Evagon-realm.
Both of them were the servants of the Crow household, and their job was to receive guests and keep a lookout on the cosmic path.
"This...Dean Lenix, you didn't inform me that young miss Linci was also coming. Master Crow will get angry if he hears about it," one of the servants spoke.
Linci's face had turned cold and indifferent after arriving in this suffocating place that was her...home. However, there was also a spark of hope and anticipation in her eyes.
The two servants kept a distance from Linci and looked at her with fearful eyes.
"Are we waiting for one more person?"
Right after this servant finished speaking, a person appeared from the portal...fully covered in blood with only a thin layer of skin that seemed to have just built up.
One could see several damaged bones and organs as well.
"Athan!" Linci shouted with worry as she dashed towards Athan, "t-this..."
The two servants were shocked to their core and were especially dumbfounded when they saw the person's aura.
'What the hell is a person at Zen order elite doing here? How did he pass the barrier since he...was clearly not born in upper-chaosverse.'
The two servants looked at each other in confusion.
A bright white layer covered Athan's entire body before turning into the clothes he had worn previously. The blood covering his body was gradually disappearing as well as he patted Linci's head and said with a smile, "I'm fine."
However, no one noticed except Athan that Primo had already left the hall.
Suddenly, everyone felt a suffocating pressure except for Athan, as a middle-aged man with a solid and overbearing temperament arrived in the hall through the open doors of this palace.
Seeing him, the two servants directly bowed and said, "M-master Crow. We didn't know young miss Linci was coming as well. Please forgive us."
Dean Lenix also bowed and said hurriedly, "Master Crow, we have found the cure for Mrs. Elena."
Linci turned to her father as her face became void of any expression, "let's go, Athan."
Linci's father was first surprised because Athan was clearly within two meters of Linci, but he was unaffected by her power. Everything around her was peaceful as there was no sense of coldness and deathly chill.
He was still finding it hard to believe the words of Lenix, but he remained silent and just observed the strange young man, which was failing to see through.
Suddenly, Primo entered inside the hall and started laughing, "Nyahaha. Master, I extracted all Netherly frost from Linci's mother. She is now completely fine."
"M-master Crow! Master Crow! A miracle happened! M-madam Elena suddenly regained her consciousness! We are also not feeling any coldness from her!"
A person entered the hall while shouting excitedly!
Linci trembled as she looked at Primo and Athan before making a dash towards the hall's doors with tears in her eyes.
On the other hand, Master Crow's whole body shook before he disappeared as he left the hall as well.
