Chapter 1405



Ella looks at the cave entrance with its glowing lights. The exit is just there, so near, and yet it was very far unable to be reached even after extending her hand.

She can feel the life slowly ebbing away from her body. The energy within her that she usually is very proud of because of their abundance has already left her.

She could not even lift her hand while trying to reach for that place in front of her eyes.

"Young lady… do not close your eyes… Do not close your eyes. We can get out of this place… Just hang in there!" one of the people with her said persuading her to stay awake.

But her consciousness is already fading and she could not help but feel her body slowly getting cold.

"I'm cold…" she muttered.

The four men look at her helplessly as they know that she is already succumbing to her fate.

"Sigh… Is this it? Is this our fate? After opening my mind and knowing the truth, will I just fall in here, just like that?" the young man muttered while looking at the cave entrance envelope with a water-like surface.

Deep inside his heart, he is not resigned to this kind of fate after recovering his memory of the other side of the world.

He thought that by coming to this place, he would have already reached the highest glory and would then be sent to another realm.

Yeah, right…

It is another realm alright… another realm of endless reincarnations living different lives over and over in a non-ending cycle of short lives as a mere mortal.

It would have been better if he stayed on the other side and continue living the life of a powerful Shin Lord.

"What should we do now, sir?" one of the B-Rank awakened behind him asked.

"What can we do?" another one answered in helplessness as he slumps on the floor.

"We have to stay in here until those things got what they wanted… But I don't know if we can still live after they are done…" the other B-Rank also leaned on the wall while folding his hand in contemplation.

"Umm… Guys… She… She is not dead… She is just… sleeping." The one holding Ella Exe suddenly called out.

When the other three heard his words, they all look at him in confusion.

This made them all feel a sense of relief as they knew that she is not yet dead but is just sleeping.



Meanwhile, in the real world…

Xin Ja has done dressing the woman's wound after taking the bullet on her side.

She is now sleeping calmly, so he decided to grab the so-called artifact that actually looks like a jade plate made of dark green jade the size of a whole hand.

It is square-shaped and looks different from what he has heard.

As he scrutinized the object with his Absolute Sense, Xin Ja was suddenly petrified by what he saw.

"This… This is the aura of Shadow Beings…" he muttered.

As he continuously scanned the jade plate, he is now sure that this thing actually has the aura of Shadow Beings.

He could not help but suspect that the father of the woman, Doctor Exe might be a carrier of a Shadow Being, just like that woman he had seen on the other side.

At that time, he is not yet sure of the real danger, but now that he saw the demons and the portals, he knew that the Shadow Beings and the demons are working on this project. It might be that this pendant is the source of the portal.

Xin Ja quickly dive inside the surface of the jade and scanned it thoroughly.

Soon, he suddenly stopped as he projected the whole surface of the jade plate into his sight.

The jade plate actually has 7 layers connected together. And each layer is filled with the lower realm rune command.

As he separated the surfaces of the jade plate, he could now see the tiny runes written on its surface which made him very curious and wanted to study more.

But soon, he found the crux of the matter. It was a vague idea, but with his knowledge and experience, he knew that what he understood about the jade plate it the truth.

"I'll study you later…" he thought as he looks around and saw some discarded box that looks a perfect fit for the jade plate.

As he takes the box, he could feel the strange surface of the broken box which is not made of plastic and not of metal. It has a weird texture on it.

"Ah, so this is what they are talking about… Nobody knew that this jade plate is actually the real deal and this is its camouflage…" After checking it, Xin Ja takes the jade plate and puts it inside the container.

He then sealed the container and reinforced it.

"Hehe… Let's see if you can still use this…" Xin Ja thought with a smile.

He knew that if those people would accidentally open a portal themselves, then it would cause too much trouble to this world. That portal would become a permanent one and it would cause the Ki in this place to flow to the other side without being impeded.

And that is something he could not let happen.

After doing that, he put it back beside the young woman and then walked towards the inner chamber of the cave.

From there he could see a wide cavern and in the middle of that wide cavern is a floating dream stone the size of a house.

"This is huge…" he muttered as he looks at the dream stone.

Xin Ja walked to the dream stone and suddenly stopped as he noticed two demons standing on guard beside it.

They might look like statues, but he could tell that they are demons with the help of his sight.

Without hesitation, he sent a few wind blades toward those demons and decapitates them easily. Xin Ja did not hesitate to absorb the Ki in their body and feel a bit refreshed.

In the battle outside, he was a bit tempted to absorb any of those Ki from the demons, but he could also sense that they are only a meager amount.

Although there are those that have plenty of Ki, he would not dare absorb them openly in that place.

Xin Ja once again examined the dream stone but was stumped when he realized what this dream stone's purpose is.

According to what is written in the old language at the bottom, these dream stones are created in the lower realm to imprison the gods of this world.

The glyph on the floor is actually written once again using the array of the lower realms.

Although Xin Ja already has an idea of what this world actually is, he still could not believe its validity until now.

It is said that eons ago after this world was created, every deity that committed a grave mistake in the land of the deities will be imprisoned in this world for an unknown amount of time until they have paid their samsara cycle and gained good merit.

After he finished reading, he could not help but shake his head as he knew that what he has learned is correct.

"So this is truly a prison…" he thought.

The dream stone is a part of a mega matrix that envelopes half of this world.

"I wonder how the demons were able to come and go in this place…" he thought.

But right now, he has no time to think anymore.

"Hehe… Since you guys like going in here, then why not also experience its effect on your own…" Xin Ja muttered as he began changing the glyph on the ground.

"Hmm… This has a delayed effect of 30 days… That is a long time before taking an effect… But anyway, I know that this would foil your plans… Hehehe…" he muttered with a grin.

After changing something on the glyph, he carried the people out of the cave one by one.

The first one to regain consciousness is the A-Rank awakened who was startled to see the figure of Xin Ja sitting calmly on the side protecting their group.

When he saw the light barrier surrounding them, his eyes suddenly glistened in excitement.

But when he scanned the body of the young man, his expression dropped as he knew that what he was thinking was wrong.

The guy is only a Ki-Fighter.

But for some reason, the barrier around them is familiar to him.

"Camouflage barrier…" he muttered.

Suddenly Xin Ja opened his eyes and looks at the young man.

"Sir! You're awake!" Xin Ja called out.

The young man nodded his head but looks at Xin Ja weirdly.

"How did you do this?" the man asked.

"Ah, this is called a Ki barrier… I… I don't know much about it. All it says in the old book of my family is that it could hide my presence. Ever since I've learned it, I've been using it in the wilderness…"

"An old book?"

Xin Ja grabbed something from the small pouch on his back and handed it to the young man.

It looks like a pamphlet written by hand.

"I copied it… from the original book because it was too old and most of the words are already faded…" Xin Ja lied through his teeth.
