Chapter 1474 1474: You just need to die

Following the Immortal Queen’s command, the clone clenched his fist firmly. He didn’t know why it was needed, but he didn’t question the lady. 

The formation under their feet started shining brightly. Before long, it was as if the entire world was filled with the shine of the formation. The sky turned crimson, forcing everyone to look up. No one knew what was causing it. 

Powerful thunder started flashing in the crimson sky. Following the lifting, a bird came down from the sky. The bird was so big that it could cover half the city in its shadow. The massive bird was purely made from lightning, including the wings. 

With each flap of the wings, lightning fell to the ground. Even Long Chen was stunned as he looked up. He could feel the aura of the bird even though it was far. “That bird?” 

”That’s not a real beast. It’s just the manifestation of the barrier that’s trying to stop you. I guess I underestimated it. Even though I tried to hide your bloodline under my aura, the barrier seems to have noticed it. As expected of the barrier cast by the Heavenly Warriors.”

”What should we do?” Long Chen asked. 

”What else can we do? That bird is the manifestation of a barrier cast by the Heavenly Emperor himself. I can fight it for a little, but even I can’t defeat it without getting injured myself. We need to get out of here before it can catch us. Until then, let me leave it on a false trail.”

”Start sending your Qi to the stone!”

”This stone?” Long Chen opened his fist. 

”Exactly. I gave you that stone for a situation like this, after all. Just apply the Qi!”

”Alright.” Following the command, Long Chen pushed his Qi to the stone. 

As soon as he did that, the bird that was flying above his head started flying in a different direction as if it was attracted by something. 

”What happened to it?” Long Chen asked, stunned. Why was this leaving so easily?

”It’s going to catch you.” The Immortal Queen smirked. 

”What? But I’m here.”

”I know, but it doesn’t. That stone is sending your Aura to another formation on the other end of this world. That formation is also trying to break through the barrier of this world.”

”But that contains your pure aura, unlike here where you have a hidden aura. So it’s going to what it’s attracted to the most. A creature of this world trying to break the barrier. By the time it realizes what’s happening, we will be long gone.”

”Will it really work?” Long Chen inquired. “Could the trick really be as simple?”

”You think it’s simple? We still have a lot to do. As soon as we start cracking the barrier, the bird will realize that something’s wrong. We would have a fraction of a second to leave before it attacks us! Now don’t disturb me. Just stand silently!”

The Immortal Queen held Long Chen’s hand as she started sending her Origin to the formation under her. The stronger her formation because the more unstable the space before her became. 

Long Chen stood silently and let the lady do her job. Before long, a spatial crack started opening up in front of them. 

The lightning bird also appeared to have sensed the crack. It turned around. With a single flap of its massive wing, it traveled half the world and appeared above the Immortal Queen. 

”Screech!” With a screeching noise, the bird flapped her wings. Thousands of lightning bolts came crashing down on the Royal Palace. 

”Insolent!” The Immortal Queen raised her hand, casting a barrier around the Palace. Even though she cast a barrier, she knew it wasn’t going to last for more than a second. Pulling Long Chen with her, she jumped inside the Spatial Crack. 

The spatial crack closed at the same time as the barrier shattered. 

The lightning bird roared furiously, but it couldn’t do anything as there was no one left for it to let out its anger on. It couldn’t kill innocents for no reason.  

After a long time, the lightning bird disappeared, failing its mission. 

….

The Immortal Queen once again appeared in the Immortal World. This time, she wasn’t alone. 

”This place… Where are we?” Long Chen asked. 

”This is the Immoral World. Through you, I can sense the real Long Chen. He isn’t in this world. This should be a safe place for us,” Smiling, the Immortal Queen answered. “That should give us plenty of time.”

”Come, it’s time I take you to a place where you’ll find your strength.”

”Where?” 

”To the Dragon Temple.”

”Dragon? You mean a real Dragon?”

”I guess you can technically call it a real Dragon,” the Immortal Queen chuckled. “There’s a reason why I didn’t fight that dragon to help the humans last time. It was for a day like this. Now that I need it, I can harvest the fruit of my patience!”

Another Portal opened before the Immortal Queen. She stepped inside the portal with Long Chen.

This time, she appeared before the entrance of the Bloodline Temple. Even though the Bloodline Temple was known to be a place where Dragons stayed, only one dragon was staying there. It was the Dragon King who had accompanied Long Chen on his journeys. 

Even though Long Chen traveled with the Dragon King, he didn’t tame the guy since, by that time, he was already much stronger than the Dragon King. He didn’t get why he needed the Dragon King.

 Moreover, he didn’t want another Snake Monarch who couldn’t keep his mouth shut. He already had a handful with the one he had.

”Will we train with the Dragon?” Long Chen questioned. He didn’t understand how a Dragon was going to make him stronger in a short time. 

”Who says we’ll do that?” The Immortal Queen smirked. 

She placed her hand on the entrance of the Bloodline Temple. 

With a bang, the entrance opened with just her touch. 

”Come.”

She entered the temple with Long Chen. 

”Who dares break into my Temple!” The Dragon King came flying, noticing an intruder. However, as soon as he noticed who the intruder was, he stopped. 

”Long Chen? Is it you? And the lady, I remember you. You must be the Immoral Queen. What are you two doing here?” The Dragon King asked. 

”We came here to make him stronger,” the Immortal Queen said. 

”Make him stronger?” The Dragon King laughed. “Little woman, you jest well. Don’t make me laugh more! The last time I saw him, he was already stronger than me. How can I make him stronger?”

”The answer is simple,” the woman replied. “You just need to die!”
