The sudden confession that the Queen of the Alluring Forest did not tug the heart strings of the Levin Cloud nor Adrian. They knew that she would not be redeed that easily even though she might be saved. If she cultivates once more, the punishnt for her tribulation would still be the sa and she would be in a more weakened state.
"We should help her!" The Peridot stated as her eyes could be seen to have small tears forming.
Levin Cloud and Adrian are dumbfounded as she was the one that was vehently against helping her in the first place. She suddenly did a sudden turned around when she heard that the Queen of the Alluring Forest is trying to beco an immortal due to a man that she loves.
"I thought that you did not even want to help her. With all the punishnt of the heavens and going against it is part of the journey of being an immortal and all." Adrian stated.
"Never underestimate a maiden's heart! I know of your struggles and I promise that I will help you as I also have love in my heart!" Peridot stated.
"She is watching those period dramas again and I think she is getting swept in the act. No wonder the dialogue that she said earlier was familiar as we watched that from a wuxia drama." Levin Cloud stated as he could piece together the things that Peridot stated earlier.
"It is not you that will help her though but us. Why are you saying that you will help her?" Adrian asked.
"Oh! I will make sure that you guys help her as I know that you have your ways in navigating through life and death. Arbiter of the Underworld!" Peridot stated as she told the title that is given to Adrian whenever he is in the underworld.
"We can help her but it cos at a high cost. It might not just be the tribulation that she suffered that we will be penalized by. At least, not you two but Adrian and I will be in for a challenge." Levin Cloud stated as even he knows that ssing with the life cycle of another being is not easy or cos without consequences.
"If there are consequences then Kabrakan and I will naturally help you." Peridot stated.
"I recorded that statent so that you will not lose your word. Do not regret what you said because you will reap what you sowed." Adrian stated as he nodded towards Levin Cloud.
"Why did I get caught up in this when I was just observing from a distance." Kabrakan grumbled as he deflated.
Adrian and Levin Cloud then suddenly changed their forms to their forms that coincide with death. Levin Cloud's handso wood elf like appearance suddenly changed into a dark elf like appearance as his lush leafy hair turned into a deprecated vine ensemble. Adrian changed to his Netheros form and started to create the magic circle to call upon the God of Death that has authority in the eastern continent.
"I call upon the God of Death that has full authority in the eastern continent. I call upon you to give a chance to this pitiful being that is close to death's embrace." Adrian stated as his chant is followed up by other words that cannot be determined by the ears of others as it was in another language.
"Blessing of Life… Blessing of Death… Everything lives and everything dies. This humble servant that is the mortal representatives of the great gods of life and death gives this offering for I shall undergo a ritual that defies this delicate balance." Levin Cloud stated as he suddenly cut his palm and let his blood drop into the magic circle that Adrian created.
The Queen of the Alluring Forest, Peridot and Kabrakan were watching them do this ritual and they could feel their skin having goosebumps. The air that was already low in temperature dropped more than ten tis. The whistling wind that produced noise suddenly beca quiet while the clouds that move in the sky halted.
The hearts of everyone in the area started to beat wildly as the two beings related to life and death are calling upon a powerful being that could reverse the death of a being that failed to cultivate to immortality. Even the people that were training at the edge of the Alluring Forest could feel that the forest is different today.
The heavy aura that the forest creates has beco even denser as even those at the edge feel that they are being choked. All those that were inside and even at the edge of the forest retreated as they fear that the Allurers might attack them regardless of location. The Queen of the Alluring Forest knew that this commotion might attract the immortals which is why she sent her army to go to the very edge of the forest to intimidate them.
Once the Allurers were at the edge of the forest, the people that saw them thought that these monsters just went crazy or are incredibly hungry. All of the people were advised to not step foot inside the Alluring Forest for the ti being. With the distraction being successful, the Queen of the Alluring Forest sighed with relief as they would not be disturbed.
Both Adrian and Levin Cloud suddenly stopped chanting because they already knew that soone has answered their call. From Levin Cloud's blood, a gate from the underworld sprouted up that is created by dead plants and vines. A hellish red portal is then presented before all of them as a being with imnse power walked out of the portal.
A man with red skin and fiery eyebrows ca out of the gate with a scroll and an ink set. He looked extrely intelligent as he had the stance of a scholar and even the clothes of one. The only thing that distinguished him from being a scholar is his golden crown with his initials attached. The Queen of the Alluring Forest imdiately knelt down upon seeing the being that was summoned.
