Chapter 1665 Strange Secret Realm
In front of Martha, her father and mother, Grey's figure was passing through the portal in the middle, but that was not the astonishing thing, the thing that had their mouths wide open is that as Grey was forcing his way into the portal, all three portals were merging. Yes, according to Grey's grandfather, all three portals were somewhat connected, but at the same time they were three different portals, leading to three different places. However, all three portals were merging at the moment as Grey was stepping into the portal. "Dad..." Martha called out to her father once again, worried about the safety of her son. Martha's father looked at her and kept a calm expression, he moved close to Grey to inspect the portals. He didn't dare to touch him nor the portals, this was something he didn't have any idea about. There's a chance that they might be in danger if they mess with the portal. "From the look of things, he's not showing any signs of being in danger, we should watch and see what happens." He said as he inspected the portals. "What do you mean by that, father?" Martha wasn't as calm as her father. She took a step forward, and just as she was about to grab Grey's shirt from behind, she felt a powerful force push her away. The force was powerful, yet so very gentle. Her father was the first to react, placing a palm on her back to stop her from moving back. "Martha, don't be reckless." Grey's grandfather reprimanded his daughter before pointing at Grey and saying, "Look, he doesn't seem to be in any danger, nor do I sense any maliciousness from the portals merging. Don't put him in any danger." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
His words made Martha sense the portal and indeed, it didn't show any signs of it attacking Grey. "But..."
"Don't worry, I'll contact the Elders, we'll see if they know anything about this." Grey's grandfather reassured Martha before disappearing. Martha was left with her mother, who was just as worried as her, but the words of her husband resonated in her head and she moved closer to Martha to comfort her. She just held Martha's arm when Grey's figure was fully enveloped by the portal. Martha was evidently worried, but remembering her father's words, she calmed down, hoping that this might be a good thing for her son.
.....
While Martha and her father were worried about Grey as he was passing through the portal, Grey was a bit freaked out. As part of his face passed through the portal, he was greeted by a scorching sun, and he almost felt like his face was about to be burned off. He was currently looking at a dried up patch of land, the cracks on the ground was a testament of the fierceness of the sun which was seemingly ready to burn his face. There was nothing significant in sight, except some parchments of grass, and some cactus like trees.
Somewhere in the secret realm. Grey saw a building and stopped flying, he rushed into the building, trying to see if there was anything of value to him in there. He stood at the front of the building. This building was the only one in a few kilometers, he was still in the desert-like region, and even this building has been well heated up by the sun. Grey felt like it would come crumbling down if he touched it. 'I wonder how strong that thing was.' He thought to himself. He didn't get the chance to sense the cultivation level of the worm, but he was certain that he felt a sense of danger from it. One has to know that he has fought with Mid stages Magical Beasts before and didn't feel any form of threat from them. If he felt danger from that creature, it meant that it was at least in the Late stages of the Eighth Rank. He couldn't help but shiver at the thought of being swallowed by such a creature.
He didn't do anything in a haste, only after a few seconds of properly inspecting the door to the building did he finally decide to open it. The building wasn't large, around eight meters high or so, and it didn't look big either, around fifteen to twenty meters wide.
The door was made from a metal he hadn't seen before, and when he touched it, he could feel a strange coldness seep into his body, and the first thing that came to his mind was...
'Damn!!! This is good stuff!!'
The cold sensation he felt from the metal was different from the scorching heat in this place. The fact that it could retain this coldness even after being stuck here for years was shocking. Anything would've started to give off heat too, especially metals, but this one didn't seem to have any issues with the heat here, and still maintained its usual coldness. He grabbed the handle and opened the door.
