A little light lit up the pitch-black cave.Alex kept his guard up and stared intently at the wall. As expected, they were ancient runes, but they weren’t as complicated as he initially expected. He could handle them easily on his professional level, but he had neither Chi nor a cultivation base now. In that past, he could mobilize the spell formation and open the stone door by making a seal with his hands.At the moment, in order to do that, he had to move his position with the help of the runes.Whoosh!The sound of monsters crawling ahead could be heard.Sure enough, the sound created by Maximilia had attracted the monsters.When Alex glanced back amidst the commotion, he was shocked. It turned out to be three enormous mutant crocodiles with open mouths as huge as small boats. In this pitch-black environment, their eyes had degenerated, and their eyeballs were covered. They differentiated directions by relying on sounds.At that moment, Maximilia could only make a move.She
There wasn’t any light in the cave. The two couldn’t identify the time within this odd illusionary realm. They even thought that time passed abnormally here.More importantly, they needed to finish the challenge and get out of here.Alex couldn’t help but think about that ax inside his consciousness. He didn’t understand why it would react so vigorously, rushing up the Heavenly Stairs and disappearing.‘It wouldn’t have disappeared just like that, right?’Alex didn’t know that the ax had returned. He also didn’t realize that Xienna’s soul had come here to look for her lover in the past. It was precisely because she interfered with the ax that it failed in its task, and it gave up.In reality, that ax did, in fact, want to leave Alex’s mind.If it were to obtain that thing within the Heavenly Stairs, it wouldn’t be able to stay within Alex’s mind after that. However, Xienna’s interference helped him out instead, preventing him from losing the mysterious ax.At the time, Maximilia
The light that shone in had actually come from the surface.It was safe to assume that they would see the kingdom once they got to the surface.The two continued swimming upwards, but the pond went deeper than expected.After swimming for a while, Alex began to panic when he started running out of air. His lungs felt like they were going to explode, and he couldn’t swim any longer.Maximilia rushed over and held his head, placing her seductive lips onto his.Huff—She blew a mouthful of Chi inside, which generated oxygen for him.Maximilia’s cultivation level allowed her to breathe directly with her lungs.Alex instantly felt very good, and he was swimming upwards again. However, he still hadn’t reached the surface even after he’d used up his oxygen. He ran out once again.He then grabbed hold of Maximilia and pointed towards his mouth, indicating that he wanted her to give him more air.Five times later, Alex finally reached the surface. What met his eyes was the bright sun.
Maximilia was pointing at one of the streets within the city. It seemed slightly different compared to the rest of the city.The grocer she mentioned was actually… human.Apart from them, there were actually other people within this kingdom. However, these people weren’t as lucky to be walking around freely. They… were being tied up by a group of monsters, drenched in blood, and being sold as food on the streets—“Come, take a look! Fresh human meat! We have live humans too! Rare quality flesh! Does anyone want some?”“One dollar for five hundred grams! Just one dollar for five hundred grams! You won’t regret spending here! We’re honest sellers…”The voice came from that very street, shocking Alex and Maximilia to the core.The one yelling was not human. It had a sharp mouth and the cheeks of a monkey, along with a whole body of fur. Despite that, he was wearing clothes. Upon a closer inspection, they realized that this guy was actually a beast demon, a weasel. There seemed
If these demons hadn’t kept their beast forms, many would’ve thought that humans still ruled the area.In mere moments, they drew close to the group of tied-up humans.Now that they were closer, the two were able to recognize them. They were, in fact, the people who stayed at the Death Inn. There were quite a lot of them, eighteen to be exact.However, these people looked pathetic. They were all decorated with colored ribbons, and some had even lost their limbs. These people were just different animals to those demons, just like how humans treated pigs as livestock. The roles had merely reversed here.More importantly, they lacked the strength to defend themselves.Smack!Slapped by a demon, a young teen tumbled over. After that, the demon punched and kicked him. “What the hell? Who gave you permission to pee where ever you want? Do you think this is the toilet? Get up and lick the floor clean, or we will eat you right now!”The teen was devastated. At this point, he had lost
Boom! Boom! Boom!The light-golden-colored phoenix scorpion looked like it was made out of gold. As large and tough as an adult buffalo, its two massive pincers looked like excavator buckets.Alex and Maximilia kept running as the scorpion continued to chase after them, destroying everything in this way. Those ivory buildings seemed like tofu in the face of the golden phoenix scorpion.Such a large commotion had undoubtedly caught the attention of many demons, drowning the street in utter chaos. “After them!”“I call dibs on that woman. I want her to bear my children!”“Get lost. She’s mine.”“I’ll fight you!”“Bring it on. The winner gets to have her, and the loser has to f*ck off!”If Maximilia knew that two ugly demons were fighting to mate with her, she would’ve likely put up an interesting expression.Those captured after going through the death’s door saw this as well.Some yelled at the teen from before, and some were filled with despair, all hoping to die together.
“That would be enough.” Maximilia said and took a deep breath. She raised her sword and entered the formation again.Although she was Maximilia at the time, she was Jade in all but looks. She was resolute and refused to be sluggish for the slightest second. With a blade in each hand, she rushed in, slashing every single demon as harshly as she could.“Ahhh!!! Why would there be a formation here? How could the strategist’s formation be used against his own people?”“That scholar… That scholar is a formation master! Kill him, kill him!”The demons started yelling in rage, but they couldn’t do anything now that they were within the formation. Restricted, their fighting skills were obsolete. They could only watch as Maximilia sliced them up. “You’re dead, humans!”“Every human who trespasses into Kroraina has to die!”As the demons shrieked, the golden phoenix scorpion continued hitting the boundary with its body as if it had gone crazy. Since Alex needed the eggs of this scorpio
Maximilia exerted herself with brute force, and Alex was unable to resist. When she started smashing her lips into his, Alex was helpless. Without the strength to do anything about it, he decided he should simply enjoy the moment to the fullest.Alex didn’t know if this was justifiable, but his body reacted very honestly. His mind was so foggy that he didn’t even think for a second that Maximilia’s saliva had been tainted with the scorpion’s poison as well.At one point, the two were so drowned in lust it was hard to tell who was taking the lead. Basically, this little ‘session’ lasted a very long time.Even the fake moon seemed to have become shy as it set at a seemingly earlier than usual.In the blink of an eye, the sky was bright once more. Alex and Maximilia were currently lying on the floor, unable to move an inch.“Maximilia, it hurts!” Alex said. “You don’t have to say it out loud. I’m in pain too!” Maximilia narrowed her eyes, wanting to turn to the side. However, she f
