Perverted Demon

Chapter 227: Parallel Portals

Both Iyana and Nokon nodded at Dragon Fang's words. They could both tell that it would be suicide to disturb such a powerful figure as that red-dressed lady. Previously all of them has witnessed her power, if not for Rowen being a generous Righteous cultivator, all of them would have been dead. Rowen was the reason they stayed alive.

"Thanks, Mr Fang for the accommodation and trouble. Please call us back when everything is sorted out and both of us will be in debt of your Dragon Fang sect." Nokon said with a bow. After the incident with Rowen, he has become more humble than he ever was. Seeing such a powerful cultivator whose consciousness is not clouded with power and arrogance. Both of them also became humble.

Iyana also nodded at her husband's words. "Yes, Master Fang, we will be in debt of your sect. And in future, you can call us both for help if this sect is ever in trouble."

Dragon Fang smiled humbly. "Thanks for your humble comments. For now, let's leave, I can somehow feel that the powerful lady could still see us." He said with a gulp of saliva. And just as the couple heard him they also became agitated and disappeared with an awkward smile.

Lilias looked at them and snorted. "What a bunch of losers. If not for my son being generous they would have already been disintegrated into nothingness." She thought and looked down. Sweat was trickling down her spine, as she was feeling that it was a lot harder to control these space waves than she had thought. "They are powerful. I can only last about five hours even with all my power. I hope Rowen is doing ok."

She can't sense Rowen, neither can she sense the other three girls, Dana, Ampone and Felicia. It was like they have disappeared into a different dimension, just like Rowen's Hellish Dimension. This whole pit felt odd to Lilias. "The power contained in this pool. It feels like it's here but also not. This is very peculiar." She could feel the pressure, however, she can't just grasp it at the same time.

Her eyes then suddenly landed on a white line forming in the pit. "These waves, they are trying to break out of my force field. This power and pressure are almost as same as the Eldritch Guardian." Gritting her teeth she activated her power. "Crimson Serpent!"

A red coloured snake Halo moved out of her back, the snake was very big, large enough to cover the entire pool. There were dark red scales on its body and while its white halo-like eyes shone like lanterns in the Dark Pit. "Cover up the cracks! Not a single effervescent of waves should go down!" Lilias yelled at her full power. The snake understood her powerful intention.

With a loud hiss, the crimson sanke surfed over the pool and slowly started to coil its body around Lilias's Force Field. The White crack that was rapidly growing stopped and even started reversing. The serpent sealed the whole place with its body.

Lilias then took in a deep breath while closing her eyes. She focused on her dantian, and her Qi started roiling out of her body rapidly. The Black coloured lake started turning red slowly. If Dragon Fang and other's saw this phenomenon their eyes would have popped out of their socket. To change the colour of the Ascendece pit to red. It was something only highly powerful people could do.

The Black layer soon got covered with sanguine and finally a honeycomb-shaped shield formed over the pool preventing anyone from entering it. Lilias was using all her power just to hold back these terrifying space waves and if someone tried to enter the pool from outside and disturbed her power, she could end up losing all her balance.

"I only have power for five more hours, after that, I will run out. I hope he can get his hand on that pearl before that." She thought and then closed her eyes. Clearing her mind, to only focus on preventing the space waves from attacking Rowen.

Below her in another layer, the Three girls stood in absolute blackness, they could only see each other and themselves, no signs of Space waves or anything. "Dana I can't feel Brother or mistress," Felicia said with slightly furrowed brows.

"Don't worry, they are on different layers than us and the space treasure is blocking our senses. It's just like Brother's hellish dimension." Dana explained and then looked ahead. "But..."

"But what?" Ampone looked at her with a serious expression.

Dana looked at her and took in a short breath. "But there is something odd about this place. It feels like, we are in this layer but we are not. It is like we are present in thousands of places at the same time." She said and suddenly her eyes widened in terror.

Felicia looked at her terrified face and placed her hand over her shoulder. "Are you ok, sister Dana?"

"Could it be..." Dana gulped her saliva. "No, how can a random book that was written by no named guy be true?"

"Tells us quickly Sister Dana, is brother Rowen's life is in danger?" Ampone asked while shaking Dana out of her stupor.

Dana moved her head towards Ampone and relaxed a little. "I can't tell now. Anything could be possible. However, one thing I am sure of is that Master has to face that Darkness Pearl in a place like this. His Life should not be in danger till he is careful."

"A place like this? What is wrong with a pit of Ascendence?" Felicia asked with a more relaxed tone after she found out that Rowen's life is not in danger. Even Ampone turned silent and took a step back waiting for Dana to answer.

"Have you ever thought, why would Half The Dao of Darkness would be used to connect a higher Plane to a lower plane as we live in? To expand such precious resource on a lower plane? There could be hundreds of planes like this in the world. What about the rest, how do people from that place Ascend to the Higher Plane?"

Both Felicia and Ampone's brows raised at her question. She was right. Why would half the Darkness Dao would be used to connect only one Lower Realm with the upper one? And what about the others?

"What do you think Sister Dana? Why is that?" Felicia asked with a curious expression. She was intrigued by Dana's reasoning. She never thought about this before coming to this place. Even Ampone was interested. It was like she has been suddenly enlightened and wanted to know more.

"I once stumbled upon an old scroll in Wheat Hollow Library. At that time I thought that the Scroll was written by some charlatan as the quality of material used was bad and no name was written on the scroll. It was authorless writing."

"What was in that scroll?" Felicia asked.

"There were some words about Parallel Portals and how every portal formed in this universe could only originate from a single dimension. The words were very vague and hard to understand."

"However, if I interpreted it correctly then it meant, there is only one dimension in which we can open a portal to travel at a faster rate or sometimes in an instant. And it's not the Ascendence Pit that is formed by the Dao it's this dimension that we are standing in. Ascendance pit is just one of the Portals of thousands, that has been opened in this Dimension."

Felicia took a deep breath at Dana's words, all this was new and complicated for her, although she used to read books, it was only to treat her mother and nothing else. She was never interested in books and literature, to begin with.

Ampone was in even worse condition than Felicia, she was a war manic that has seen more dead bodies than all the words she had ever read. So this was completely different territory for her too. "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?" Ampone asked.

"It's pretty bad actually. If everything is written in that scroll is true then, it's not actually the Darkness Dao that formed the pool of Ascendence."

"Not the Darkness Dao? Then what?" Felicia knew that Rowen was only here for Dao of Darkness, if it's not present here then it would be a wasted journey, that will definitely make him mad.

"It's the Dao of Space that forms this Dimension." A slight worry formed on Dana's face.

"And what about Darkness pearl? Is it not here?" Ampone asked.

"No, it must be here but its function is opposite of what we have imagined. It is not here to create this Dimension or Pit it is here to Protect the space, Dao. Which mean it's more dangerous than we imagined."

"Protect the Space Dao? Then that space treasure..." Felicia started to join the pieces together.

"Yes, that space treasure must be containing half the Space Dao and The Darkness Pearl should be protecting it."

Listening to her both Felicia and Ampone's eyes widened. "We should immediately go down and alert Master! That Darkness Pearl is more dangerous than we thought."
