Chapter 2146: Chapter 2114: All Arrive
"Is it here?"
Outside the Sea Edge Realm, a figure hovered in mid-air, overlooking the planet below.
In his eyes, there was a hint of eeriness.
"According to the message left by the master, this should be the right place." Staring at the planet below, the figure’s eyes flickered with strange light, "Once this mission is completed, the master’s power will be restored to its peak. Then, my status can ascend again, and I will receive a greater reward."
The figure stretched out his hands. He possessed a pair of human hands, but on them were eerie black patterns.
If someone with extensive knowledge saw them, they would surely recognize that these magic patterns typically only appeared on the bodies of powerful Demon Race members. Moreover, Demons with such patterns were usually from the Royal Family of the Demon Race!
Yet now, these patterns appeared on a human’s body. It’s certainly an astonishing matter.
"I’ve endured immense pain to transform into a Demon body. All of this was for this power, and it’s all because of you!" Beneath the black robe was a somewhat blurred, indistinct face, but it could vaguely be seen that his face was also covered with a myriad of magic patterns.
"Once this mission is completed, and the master truly returns, it will be the time for me to come back and seek revenge!!" The figure roared, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes, and rushed towards the planet below.
"Wait, I will be back to look for you soon!"
"Li Chen!!!"
...
On the other side, Li Chen’s alter ego was walking through the Folded Space with Konggu Venerable.
"I’m here to find someone. Are you sure you’re not just wandering around?" Li Chen glanced at the Konggu Venerable beside him, somewhat skeptically.
Upon hearing this, Konggu Venerable couldn’t help but laugh dryly, "The surface of this planet may seem small, but on the other side of the Folded Space, there are several continents, each no less than the Sea Edge Realm we see outside. They’re just located on the other side of Folded Space, invisible from the outside."
"Don’t change the topic. I’m not asking about that, I just want to make sure you’re not leading us astray?" Li Chen’s eyes were filled with deeper suspicion.
Konggu Venerable couldn’t help but cough, "With my millennia of experience in the entire Sea Edge Realm, entering the internal East Suburb Realm from the outer Sea Edge Realm does indeed require passing through several Folded Spaces. However, there are so many Folded Spaces in the Sea Edge Realm that they sometimes change..."
"So, you’re lost too?!" Li Chen’s voice couldn’t help but rise several notches.
"It’s not exactly being lost, such situations occasionally happen. But rest assured, I will soon find the right path." Konggu Venerable quickly said.
This is my hope for recovery, and more importantly, this is a powerful being I can’t afford to offend.
Li Chen’s face instantly turned dark.
This guy is really unreliable; he’s a Heavenly Venerable entity, yet such an old scoundrel.
If it wasn’t certain that this old guy suffered severe injuries and needed a quick recovery, Li Chen might have suspected him of being deliberate.
But there’s one thing Li Chen could be certain about: no matter what tricks this old guy plays, he does not fear.
It’s the advantage of having absolute strength. Li Chen could confirm that he is in a dominant position. Even if this old guy turns hostile later, he’s not afraid at all.
If worse comes to worse, they could part ways. After all, this is just an alter ego.
If his true self were to find this old guy, it would be clear who’s at fault.
"Tell me about the Folded Space you’re planning to go to." Li Chen said.
Due to the spatial barriers between Folded Spaces, and the complications of entering and exiting, exploring space by space is not feasible. Hearing Li Chen’s request, Konggu Venerable was momentarily stunned, not knowing what Li Chen intended to do.
But regardless of Li Chen’s intention, Konggu Venerable described the Folded Space he originally planned to visit.
"...I see."
After hearing Konggu Venerable’s description, Li Chen nodded. In the next moment, Li Chen directly unfolded his Domain Realm.
As it’s an alter ego, there’s no Eye of the Dao; otherwise, things might have been much simpler.
Upon the expansion of the Domain Realm, Li Chen directly formed space gates using the power of the Domain Realm.
"Take a look." Li Chen pointed to the space gates in front and said.
"This is..."
"These are all the Folded Spaces I could find around here. Check quickly while the space gates are still open, or else we’ll have to explore each of them individually." Li Chen said.
Konggu Venerable couldn’t help but gape; is this a thing? Directly opening portals to all surrounding Folded Spaces and checking them one by one, isn’t this too much of a cheat?
At the same time, Li Chen’s status in Konggu Venerable’s heart rapidly rose.
Unexpectedly, he’s not only a Heavenly Pill Grandmaster but also an expert in Space Laws—a person like this is always highly sought after anywhere.
Moreover, experts in Spatial Series Laws are perhaps the hardest to deal with, not only being elusive but also having immense destructive power.
"Found it, it’s right here!"
Before long, the voice of Konggu Venerable was heard at the entrance of one of the space gates.
Hearing this, Li Chen sighed in relief, retracted his Domain Realm, and simultaneously, all the space gates surrounding them, except the one Konggu Venerable pointed to, dissipated.
"Let’s go."
"Passing through two more Folded Spaces, we should reach the East Suburb Realm, and if nothing unexpected happens, the friend you’re looking for should be there too." Konggu Venerable couldn’t help but advise: "Then when the time comes..."
Li Chen glanced at Konggu Venerable: "Rest assured, I won’t forget the promises made to you."
"Then I thank the Red Dust Taoist Brother in advance." Konggu Venerable said with a smiling face.
The two spoke as they entered the space gate together.
At this time, outside the Sea Edge Realm, after the figure entered the Sea Edge Realm, the dimensional gate opened again.
This time, five individuals appeared.
"According to the coordinates sent by the terminal Observer, the last location the target appeared is here." A figure slowly spoke.
All five individuals were covered in loose robes, masked, even wearing leather gloves, leaving no way to discern their appearances.
At this moment, a glass-like object in one person’s hand started to glow in a radiant blue.
"The intelligence compiled from all terminals has arrived as well."
"Target: Li Chen, Heaven Realm entity. Male. Based on the latest intelligence, the target obliterated a Shadow Descendant Race observer with absolute power. Estimated combat power to be no less than ten billion, determined to be an unstable factor based on past intelligence."
"Mission Executors: Five Eliminators with a combat power of twenty billion each."
"Mission: Eliminate!"
