Chapter 122: Worries Of A Demigod [5] (1/2)

A Saladar fairy.

Fairies! Extremely powerful entities of the Starstride dimensional plane. Their powerful immortal nature was due to the fact they were born as innate bloodline entities like the divine beasts and with a golden core.  That was the reason why they were directly used by the celestials to carry out deeds and errands.

”That was a loud voice, right? Yes, I know. I had to put some effect on it to sound like that. It's first-time effect is impressive. You should have seen your face. Hehe.”

”All-right, now back to you, Who are you, and why are you here?”

Just as the demigod was about to reply, she was quickly and swiftly cut off.

”Just joking with you. I know who you are, Asura. And, I know why you are here. A demigod looking for her share of the treasures of the Silent-Seeker. I know that too well but don't get me wrong, that's fine by me and by you too, I guess. If not, you wouldn't be here. Right?”

The fairy stared at Zhang Xiu Ying in expected confirmation of his words. After recieving a shrug from Reena which he took as an agreement, he continued.

”Very well then. Kindly follow me, demigod.”

The Saladar fairy made some hand seals before ceading the xemigod into the immortal cave. The sight of the interior made her smile in surprise. The inside of the cave reminded her a little bit of their own cave-house. It was a cave, no doubt, but the inside was an open space that led to two massive stone doors. The place could have passed for a plain if not for a small mildly glowing energy pool to the right of the cave and a designed area to the left.

”I welcome you to Suorang, Asura. This was the immortal cave of the highcelestial Silent-Seeker. He left behind many treasures for worthy souls. Most of his treasures had been claimed over the years but some still remain. Which one are you here for, Asura? Are you here for his martial arts legacy?”

With gleaming eyes, the Saladar fairy asked Zhang Xiu Ying in anticipation.

”Yes.”

Zhang Xiu Ying answered. She had no idea what martial arts legacy the fairy was talking about. But, she would just play along. Though, the thought of having a martial art legacy of a highcelestial was more than appealing.

”The Symphony of the Soaring Sky? At last, after many years, a demigod is here to claim the martial legacy. If only you could see how happy I am for you, Asura. But there'a little problem, Asura. This legacy is behind those doors. All you have to do, is just to pass through those doors to the other side. If you don't mind this, then you need not worry much.”

The fairy spread his hands around as he gave a nod to Zhang Xiu Ying.

”As you can see, this is a spacious area. You can replenish your lost energy and quickly recuperate here, if there's need for it. You have the energy pool to the right and training area to the left. It's possible you might not need them, though I doubt that. But if you need them, as I know you will, You can make use of them as much as you want.”

”What is this about, fairy?”

”High treasures come with some obstacles. This one is no difference. You see, for you to get to the legacy yo seek, you have to face a little obstacle. Don't worry, it's just a little one. But if you try to pass and you manage to, you can come back here to replenish yourself in the energy pool and then do some practise, if you want. No need, if you don't want.

He waited as he keenly observed the demigod.

”Or rather, you can just go back and leave this place behind you. No harm done.”

After waiting for couple of seconds and no response from Zhang Xiu Ying who had her eyes fixed on the doors with grim determination, the fairy nodded his head.

”I see you have made up your mind. Proceed when you are ready. And please, try not to die in there. I've had enough of demigods who thought they could make it in fastlight to the other side but ended up in Radar's light. You will have a fixed time to try your luck, Asura. When the time runs out, you will have to leave this place. There will be three warnings that your time is running out, if you are inside, you should leave immediately. If not, you will certainly die.”
