The Earth Goddess hastily got up from the ground, her hair disheveled and her temper flaring.
"Damn! Which brat dares to ambush me?! Don't let me catch you..." Her elegance lasted for only two seconds before her true colors were revealed.
Suddenly, a clattering noise sounded. The Earth Goddess instinctively turned her head, only to see an iron chain as thick as an arm shooting toward her. It hit her on the head with a thud, knocking her flat on her back again.
Her shoe flew off on the other side.
She was left speechless.
In the Nether.
After the Nether Chain was severed, it started to shake violently, stretching rapidly in both directions! The massive chain emitted layers of dark light before quickly shrinking to the size of an arm and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Lilly understood. "That was the true form of the Nether Chain. After being severed, it transformed into a small iron chain." The Nether Chain was tied to the Earth Goddess on one end and anchored to the foundation of the Heavenly Court on the other.
It was pulled taut.
She wondered if the sudden severing would cause the chain to crash into the Earth Goddess' face due to inertia...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLilly shook her head vigorously. No, it wouldn't. The distance was too great for such a long inertia...
As the Nether Chain broke, an ancient roar echoed from the distant sky.
Soon, the phantom of the legendary Sea-Wyvern appeared before them. It swam past Lilly and the others leisurely...
Ivan glanced at it and said, "Let's go." They had been out for a while. It was time to return.
Lilly nodded. "I wonder how long Mom and Dad have been waiting." Ivan suddenly said, "You should be prepared.” She was puzzled.
What did he mean by that? She didn't realize that the black down jacket she was wearing, which had originally covered her ankles, had now risen to her calves...
She had grown taller without realizing it.
Ivan took her hand, unrolled the sleeve that had been rolled up to her elbow, and rolled it back up to her wrist.
He said, "In the Nether, we can't feel the passage of time. The descendants of the witch clan are not living beings. They are immortal and grow slowly by relying on the consciousness deep in their hearts, similar to humans. But we are different.” Lilly stared blankly at him.
After arriving in the Nether, her rainbow feather dress had been torn into strips, so she had put on his down jacket...
The weather in the Nether was different from the Human Realm. She couldn't feel the heat or cold. She didn't feel cold in her animal skin suit, and she didn't feel hot in her down jacket.
So, she had forgotten what she was wearing until now. The coat that had been very long was now "shrunk." To be precise, it wasn't the coat that had "shrunk," but she had grown taller...
"I... I've grown again?" Lilly was surprised.
This only happened when she returned to the Human Realm from the underworld.
Ivan patted her head. "Yes." Lilly's heart sank. "So, Mom and Dad have been waiting by the pond for over three months?" Ivan said, "Yes. It will probably be Christmas in the Human Realm when we return this time." Lilly was left speechless.
This progress bar was moving too fast! She was 10 years old when she came to the Nether. She had only been here for a dozen days, and she was 11 when she returned! Lilly was so scared that she took out some "yogurt" and took a few big bites to calm herself down.
Radley, on the side, was left speechless.
This was really a shocking revelation...
They had to hurry back.
When Lilly and Ivan returned to the crack in the back door of the Nether, Black Dragon, who was coiled on the side, seemed a bit reluctant to part with them.
This little girl had been causing trouble ever since she arrived, but now that she was leaving, it felt like something was missing.
Lilly produced the Golden Thunder Water that she had originally promised to give to Black Dragon. "Here. This is for you. Even though you didn't fulfill your duty as a bodyguard, you're Ivan's pet." She smiled and gently patted the dragon's head. "Squeaky and Speedy have it, so you should have it too." Black Dragon no longer minded being patted on the head! Hehe! A whole basin of Golden Thunder Water! Although the basin was small, it was still a whole basin! Black Dragon, which had previously felt like something was missing, suddenly felt complete.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Have a safe journey!" It couldn't wait to bid farewell to Lilly and the others.
Ivan led Lilly towards the crack in the back door.
Lilly hurriedly said, "The crack in the back door near the Nether has a strong wind that can tear clothes. We need to prepare our clothes beforehand..." "Once we enter the crack in the back door, it's like entering a black hole. It will swallow everything! Although we should be able to pass through with our current strength, it's best to prepare some defensive magical artifacts..." Ivan grabbed the radish on his shoulder and said, "No need." He tossed the radish out! Radley exclaimed, "What the heck?" In the moment when the radish was being torn apart by the strong wind and debris, a light sphere suddenly appeared around it.
It was the first time Lilly had seen the orb of light enveloping the radish! Ivan pulled Lilly along, and they instantly entered the orb.
The orb was about the size of a basketball. It resembled the tower that Lilly had previously taken out. There was space inside.
However, this space felt a bit cramped.
Lilly and Ivan were squeezed together, and he introduced it solemnly. "This is Radley's defensive layer." "It's a Heaven and Earth spiritual treasure. These types of spiritual treasures usually have their own protective shields to prevent them from being devoured by the world." Lilly exclaimed in surprise, "l see... but can it withstand a black hole?" Ivan lay down and closed his eyes. "Don't worry. It can.” If it couldn't, they would simply stew it.
Radley, who could read minds, was speechless.
Yes! Yes! Yes! | can! It struggled fiercely, using up all its spiritual treasure power.
Its second ability was to absorb spirit aura as long as it was present, regardless of the environment.
The black hole continuously attempted to consume it, but it was not easily defeated. It quickly discovered traces of spirit aura within the emptiness and void of the black hole! Radley switched to a frenzied devouring mode.
The spirit aura within the black hole continuously rushed towards it while the black hole persistently tried to consume it.
Radley achieved a certain level of equilibrium by relying on its own power and protected the two relaxed individuals inside as they journeyed towards the underworld...
Inside the orb, upon seeing Ivan lying down, Lilly also reclined and comfortably rested her legs.
After all, who didn't enjoy taking it easy?
