Millennium Tension

Chapter 91: Prove That You Are Worthy

Aizen awakens from his light sleep and is followed by Axel who opens her eyes after him. Meanwhile, Ana also just woke up, but she didn't want to leave her warm embrace and snuggle back up.

'Let's get up sleepy head. We have a world to explore. ' Aizen patted Ana's waist lightly.

'Ah, um. Five more minutes. I'm filling my strength with my Aizennium. ' Ana wiggled her waist a little.

'Well, only five minutes. No more than that.' Aizen did not mind and leaned back to wait for five minutes.

'Fufu...' Axel just giggled as she covered her mouth with her hands gracefully.

Five minutes later, the six cultivator girls awoke one by one from their sleep. They awoke somewhat dazed and looked left and right to see where they were now.

"Good morning. How's your rest?"

Aizen's soothing voice brings them all back to their senses.

"Oh, yes. We're fine. Good morning to you too." Lin Yu smiled at Aizen.

"Good morning, Aizen." Feng Zhi greeted back. Their closeness had so quickly formed with such familiarity.

The other junior sisters also greeted good morning even though they didn't know whether it was morning or evening because they were all still in the ancient ruins beneath the ground with the crystal rock lighting installed in these ruins.

Five minutes have passed for Ana and she reluctantly leaves her comfortable place and stands up to greet the morning.

Then Axel took off her barrier and runes attached to the crystal cave and they came out of there to see the outside of the cave which had not changed, still a large empty room.

"Shall we continue our exploration deeper?" Aizen turned and faced the girls.

*growl*

The sound of someone's stomach growling seemed to echo through the empty room. One of the junior sisters was hungry and it couldn't be helped, but all the cultivator girls blushed while touching their stomachs.

"Hehe... Maybe after breakfast." Aizen smiled with amusement.

"Yes, please." Lin Yu and the other sisters blushed a little because they were also feeling hungry.

Since yesterday morning until now they haven't eaten or drank anything. Even though with their current strength they could survive without eating and drinking for days, yesterday's battle had drained a lot of their energy and now their bodies reacted to ask to be recharged after resting.

Furthermore, the six of them immediately prepared their hot breakfast by making simple soup with utensils that had been prepared from their storage rings.

While they have the opportunity, they prefer hot food to cold food which they keep in their storage rings.

"This is for you, Aizen." Lin Yu handed Aizen a bowl of soup.

"And here is the warm bread." Feng Zhi contributed.

"Well, thanks." Aizen originally planned to eat their own lunch with Ana and Axel, but now he feels he can't turn down the two girls' offer.

Then Ana and Axel were also given a similar breakfast package by four junior sisters.

A hearty breakfast of hot cream soup and whole wheat bread, they were about to have breakfast together before continuing their exploration.

'Axel, don't we still have some food from Ms. Han from the inn? We forgot to eat it, please share it with the six girls.' Aizen had just remembered that while eating his breakfast.

'Sure.' Axel took out a picnic lunch basket which consisted of several types of warm food from [Space Storage].

"Lin Yu, Feng Zhi. Here are our complimentary provisions. Take some and we will immediately set off for exploration." Axel offered a picnic basket full of hot food to the girls who were sitting together.

"Thank you."

Lin Yu and Feng Zhi were also unable to refuse. Then the two of them distributed it and they all ate their hot breakfast together.

"This is nice." Aizen gave a brief compliment.

"Hehe thank you."

After a warm breakfast and the utensils were tidied up, they were ready to continue their exploration again.

Axel took out a transportation board which all of them immediately boarded and immediately went to a passage that led to a deeper zone with greater danger.

The transportation board is currently controlled by Axel manually while scanning the surroundings to anticipate danger with Aizen and Ana. The transportation board was sped off at a normal speed of one hundred to four hundred kilometers per hour.

After two hours of driving, they were blocked again by a magnificent gate at the end of a gigantic hall. They were now eight thousand kilometers deep and this majestic gate looked like a gate with no turning back.

"What gate is this?" Aizen approaches to further inspect beyond the gate as he did yesterday when he was about to destroy the powerful wall gate that led into a place like an arena.

Ana and Axel also participated in an in-depth examination. Surprisingly this gate couldn't be scanned any more than this as if this gate was a separation between something.

The six cultivator girls only inspected the vast hall carefully and thoroughly for clues. This path has become a one-way passage and the gate that emits an oppressive aura is the only way to go deeper into this ancient ruins, a place that holds so many mysteries.

'Did you find anything?' Aizen asked Ana and Axel through his mind.

'Nothing. We don't know what's behind this gate. It's like the big evil gate we left behind, but this gate only gives off an oppressive aura.' Axel replied while re-examining the structure of this gate and its constituent materials.

'I didn't find anything either... Oh! What is this? A message is written here.' Ana found a written sentence engraved right in the middle of the gate.

Aizen and Axel immediately approached Ana's side to read a sentence of ancient writing based on data from Axel's research on ancient ruins.

'Prove that you are worthy. Strength and wisdom.' Axel muttered at the sentence she read.

'What does it mean?' Ana asked cluelessly.

'I do not know either.' Axel shrugged her shoulders slightly.

'We don't know what's behind this gate, but we do know this gate is the only way to get to where we are headed. Can we destroy this gate? ' Aizen placed his hand on his chin as if he was thinking of a way out.

'That's not the best solution, Master Aizen. This gate was composed of materials that were the same or stronger than the advanced [Axel Goddess] which had been modified and become what it is now. An attack with [Rank 10] destructive power would be dangerous.' Axel shared her opinion after further investigation.

Aizen understood what Axel meant by that considering they were still underground. However, he was more interested in building materials that were stronger than the [Axel Goddess] from this majestic gate.

'Perhaps the one who built this gate deliberately made it for a purpose and only allowed a select few who were worthy to pass through.' Ana tries to think about the clues.

'Strength and wisdom. I know what it means by strength but what wisdom does this gate want?' Aizen murmured absentmindedly. Then, he touched the gate where the ancient text was engraved.

As soon as the oppressive gate was touched for the first time, the ancient inscription flashed brightly and was followed by runes that rapidly spread everywhere.

The gigantic hall that was originally lit only by rock crystals that were permanently embedded in the walls was now bright with many runes covering the entire walls of this hall.

After that, the only way out of this hall which was also the passage they had previously passed was immediately closed tightly as if there had never been a passage there.

'Hehehe... Looks like you touched a mine and the trigger, Master Aizen.' Axel giggled with amusement.

All of them had no idea what this rune would trigger and what would await them. Even Axel who had the widest insight and advanced knowledge that had not been shared with Aizen and Ana knew nothing at this time.
