LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 59 - Remaining Life: 37 Hours!
Chapter 59: Remaining Life: 37 Hours!
The lightning’s force lasted around one second.
The light gradually subsided.
Everyone’s eyes gradually adjusted to the light and they finally regained their vision. They could barely see where Chen Feng was.
A scene of desolation entered their eyes. The power of the lightning just now was way too terrifying.
The terrifying pulses of energy created deep ravines on the ground, which spread in all directions.
However, this did not stop a white figure from advancing.
Chen Feng rode on the back of Pegasus Pagasos and flew toward the ancient bronze gate at an astonishing speed.
His body was covered in burn marks from the lightning, and there were many deep wounds on his skin. Even the blood that flowed out from his wounds was charred by the lightning.
Turquoise light flickered through his body.
This was the healing spell and the [Protective Halo] effect that Janna and Blake had cast on him, respectively.
Something happened under the powerful effect of these powerful recovery spells.
Although Chen Feng had not fully recovered, his injuries were mostly healed.
Pegasus Pagasos also raised its head proudly.
The threat that the lightning posed to Pegasus Pagasos was far less than the threat it posed to Chen Feng. After all, it was the mount of the ancient goddess from Greek mythology, Musei. It was a mythical beast that had come from ancient mythology.
Pegasus Pagasos carried Chen Feng on his back as he charged down and landed in front of the bronze door before the next bolt of lightning struck.
However, the dark clouds in the sky did not dissipate.
The violent power of thunder was still accumulating.
Could there be a third bolt of lightning?
Chen Feng frowned and looked up at the sky.
He placed the Barrier Shield beside him. He just had to extend his hand to touch the bronze door right now.
“Could it be…impossible for this bronze door to be opened?”
Chen Feng tried to reach out his hand and touch the bronze door. A cold sensation traveled through his skin, but he could not push the door open no matter how hard he tried.
“I can’t push it open.”
Chen Feng shook his head.
The third bolt of lightning was about to finish gathering. Even though the lightning was yet to strike, one could clearly sense it…
The lightning this time was even more violent than before!
Even Chen Feng did not have the confidence to survive the next strike.
“It looks like I have to find a way to open the door.”
“It can’t be opened… Could something be missing? Is that why this door is locked?”
“It’s locked… the door is locked. What I need…is… a key!”
Chen Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up.
If he did not recall wrongly, he had a key!
When he cleared the Arcane Realm of Ice, the Pu family and the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] had given him a spatial key. They told him that he should use it to unlock the key to Gaotian Plains.
Should he use it right now?
Chen Feng immediately took it out from his backpack in the system.
A shining medal lay quietly in Chen Feng’s palm. If he did not explain its functions to anyone else, nobody would think that one required this item to unlock Gaotian Plains.
However, a glowing thread appeared on the medal right then.
It traveled from Chen Feng’s hand to the huge bronze door.
Buzz-
Light flashed!
As the light seeped through, the complex patterns on the bronze door started to glow.
All the lines glowed and formed a highly complicated and mysterious pattern.
After that, the bronze door opened with a click!
Strangely enough, the moment the bronze door opened, the thunderclouds in the sky seemed to instantly dissipate. It was as if they had received an order of some sort.
It seemed like the dark clouds and the lightning had never appeared before.
Only a thin layer of mist and a few stars remained in the skies. Moonlight filtered through the clouds as well.
He had succeeded!
Chen Feng’s eyes flashed with joy.
The key to unlock the Arcane Realm of Gaotian Plains had always been in his backpack.
However, it was not an easy task to unlock the Arcane Realm even if one owned this key.
The key had an effective range of ten meters. In other words, even with the key in hand, one had to cross the minefield to reach the bronze door before they could open the door.
With a rumble, the bronze door opened wider.
After the door was fully opened, a dark and scary world was revealed behind it.
Chen Feng could not help but shiver after catching sight of the scene before him.
Was this… really the legendary Gaotian Plains?
Why did everything that they came into contact with differ so much from Japanese myths?
According to the legends, this place was a peaceful paradise where the god, Amaterasu, lived in. However, no matter how one looked at it right now, this place seemed even more sinister than the legendary Yellow Spring Kingdom.
It looked even more sinister at night.
The pale moonlight could not illuminate the entire sky. It only cast a layer of bleak light upon everything.
Chen Feng felt that it would be better if the surroundings were in complete darkness.
The weak light emitted by the moon seemed more like an eerie filter that made one shiver.
The bronze door opened and a large group of Awakened Ones entered.
After all, in everyone’s imagination, the land behind this bronze door was the legendary home of a god.
There should be countless treasures and riches here.
However, after entering the door, all the Awakened Ones there were stunned…
There was a crooked path that extended into the forest ahead. There were marshlands that bubbled and emitted green gas on both sides of the path.
“What the hell is this place…”
Pu Yunmo and Sakurai Longzi followed beside Chen Feng. They could not help but complain out loud.
Blake reacted the most strongly to the scene before him.
He resisted the urge to vomit, and his face turned pale. His whole body trembled all over.
“F*ck…”
Blake couldn’t say anything else.
His legs turned to jelly, and he placed all of his weight on Pu Yunmo.
The corner of Pu Yunmo’s mouth twitched twice…and he nearly fell down…
He was the one who had been severely injured.
Who was supporting whom right now?
Chen Feng held back his laughter with much difficulty when he saw the both of them supporting each other.
If not for the scary atmosphere that they were in right now, he would have mocked them both.
Chen Feng casually waved his staff and applied a bit of wind elemental energy on both of them to lift their bodies up slightly.
Right then…
A mechanical voice echoed in everyone’s ears.
“Welcome to… Gaotian Plains.”
Soon after, another voice rang out in Chen Feng’s ears.
“Remaining Life: 37 hours.”
