Chapter 666 The 11th Day

Outside the Demon Realm.

The many Saints had stopped meditating and were now waiting for their disciples and juniors to come out of the place.

Any minute now, the demon realm would end.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed all around them, and one by one people started popping out of the place.

Fu Tao walked toward his senior and waited for more of his juniors to leave.

Liang Qiu started looking for her juniors herself.

More and more people starting to pop out. Some rejoiced, some became sad.

Some tried to attack others claiming that their stuff was stolen, while some were dejected at the fact that they were teleported just as they were about to reach for some treasure.

Most showed one emotion or another, but all in all, most were simply glad to be out.

Of course, not everyone got to come out. Some of the elders waited, but their juniors and disciples didn't come out at all.

"Where's sister Xiran?" Fu Tao asked the saint expert next to him.

"Dead, I'm afraid," the man said with a sigh. "Have you any idea what happened?"

"Dead?" Fu Tao gave a weird look. "I haven't seen her since we entered the House of the Undying 3 days ago."

The elder shook his head when he heard that, but then he stopped. "You did what?!" he asked in surprise.

A similar reaction was popping out all over the location as the elders found out about the event that took place in the House of the Undying.

Very quickly the disciples summed up what was going on and the elders couldn't help but get more shocked.

"You were successful in getting treasures then?" he asked.

"Yes, elder. There was quite a bit of treasure in there. Although most of them have lost their effectiveness due to time, I should still call myself lucky with how many I got," Fu Tao said.

"Good, Good," the elder said with a happy face. It was as if he had forgotten the momentary sadness of losing a disciple.

They all talked for a while, and finally, as disciples stopped popping out of the monument, they started leaving.

Most of the greater clans and sects left immediately once they understood that no one else was coming out.

They had been here way too many times to be expectant about something like that.

The lower grade sects and clans too left not long after seeing the greater clans and sects leave. If they were going, they had no reason to stay behind.

Some folks stayed behind, hoping their person wasn't dead and just stuck, but life wasn't all sunshine and happiness.

Not long after, they too began to leave as they understood that they had lost someone precious to themselves or their organization.

No one waited for the rogue cultivators without a backup. After all, they were rogue.

So, by the end of the day, as the sun started to set, there was only one person that still stayed on the island.

Shen Jing

He's always smiling face held a troubled look as he kept staring at the monument. He hoped and hoped and hoped, but no matter what, Alex didn't come out.

'Did he really die?' Shen Jing wondered. That thought only made him feel worse and worse by the second.

He walked up to the monument and placed his hands on it. When he poured his Qi into the monument, the secret realm inside of it started to get unstable.

He let go.

"It really did close up, huh?" he thought, and after a long while sighed.

"Master's final grace before he left… I destroyed it all," Shen Jing sighed.

"Not to mention, now she is going to be angry with me. Ahhhh! I should have kept him back and not let him enter the realm," Shen Jing cried out.

Shen Jing had thought that with Alex's 2 year-long survival training that he would be able to walk out of any danger without a problem.

However, now it all seemed like a lie to tell himself.

"Goddammit!" he shouted in anger.

His aura shook the island as waves crashed onto it with far greater strength.

After a while, Shen Jing finally accepted the fact that both Alex and Pearl had died in the secret realm, and left the island as the sole bearer of this tragic news.

* * * * * *

The first day that Alex had been inside this special room, he had thought that he would simply wait around.

However, once Pearl got bored, they started throwing out attacks at the door in hope that it opened up in the next 2 days before the realm closed up.

'Is tomorrow the 10th day, or the beginning of it?' Alex thought. Soon, he realized that there was still another day to go before he would be sent out.

So, one more day, he continued sending out attacks at the door, hoping to get it open before the day was over.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do it in time.

As the day was ending, Alex stopped. There was no point in attacking the door. It was still only halfway done.

He would have to attack for some more days before he could get it to break open.

"Stop Pearl, there's no need now," Alex said.

"Why?" Pearl asked with a confused look.

"It's time to leave," Alex said. "You should get back for now."

Pearl nodded and jumped into his beast space. Then, all Alex had to do was wait.

As time slowly passed, he started wondering when he was going to get taken out.

When it reached the time for him to get out and he still didn't, the wonder in his heart turned to anxiety.

After that, every minute he wasn't taken out, the anxiety turned to fear.

"Oh no," he thought. "Am I stuck here? What's going on?"

He went to the runes at the front of the room and was still unable to activate it to teleport.

As more time passed, the 11th day of the realm arrived.

While he wondered if the realm had made a mistake and was going on for another day. but as more and more time passed, he started becoming more and more sure that the reason why he hadn't been teleported out was that he was in this goddamn room.

So he understood that he needed to leave this place immediately.

But how?

An answer came to him almost instantly.

"Through the door."

Alex brought out his sword and started attacking the door relentlessly. Not long after, Pearl joined in as well and continued attacking the door.

Minute after minute, slash after slash, Alex started chipping away at the door bit by bit.

With both Pearl and Alex hitting at it with the urgency they had, their power was only stronger than what they put out the last two days.

Each one of Alex's strikes was filled with the power of his Sword Qi. Each one of Pearl's attacks was the White Tiger's Golden Claw.

Slowly but surely, they managed to dig deeper and deeper into the stone door.

Once the door was on its last leg, Alex gave one last strike and the door suddenly broke into a hundred pieces.

Finally, Alex could see what was inside the room. When he did, he couldn't help but be shocked.
