Inside the throne room of Felinenia's castle. Alicia stood next to Queen Angelina with a black rock in her hand. "You are saying that the people are gathering these rocks from outside the forbidden area?"
"Yes, it seems so. I also heard that the forbidden area has been expanding since before the barrier was put up. I would like your permission to go and investigate the area. I may be able to get rid of whatever is there that is causing the evil aura." Alicia wanted to help the people of Felinenia since they have been so nice and accommodating to her and her friends.
"This..." Queen Mittens looked a little reluctant. "It's not that you can't, it is just that The thing that is down there is very powerful. It is said to be an ancient true god that was imprisoned on this world for its cris. This evil aura is what is leaking out of the true god's body. I have no idea how strong you actually are but these true gods are forces that very few on Phantasia can fight against. I presu there are only a hand full or less that could."
"I see But for this to be happening even if I do not fight against this true god I can at least try to seal off the evil aura that is corrupting the lands of Felinenia." Alicia just wanted to help in so way. She knew at so point and ti the people of Felinenia would need to move from these lands due to the expansion of the evil aura.
"If you are able to seal the area off so that it can not expand any more that would be for the best. Try not to fight what is down there if you do not have to. I will have owskins lead you there." Queen Mittens gave the go ahead. She did not want to have to move her people once the expansion of the forbidden area got too big.
"I will see what I can do." Alicia replied, her eyes full of determination.
"Princess Alicia I wish to go with you." Queen Angelina spoke up suddenly.
"You can if you wish. If anything happens I can always send you into my space along with everyone else." Alicia knew if anything she could keep those around her safe. Since she could easily escape in an instant if she needed to. This was one of the advantages of having the ability to use the law of ti and space.
"If you all are ready I will lead you to the forbidden area now." owskins ca forward and said.
The forbidden area was located in the very inner area of Felinenia. The entire area was like a desert with a hole placed right in the middle. The sand of the desert was pushed away revealing the rocky edge of the large cave entrance. The desert itself was slowly overtaking the small forest which enclosed the whole area. A large fence was also constructed around the forbidden area and many guards were stationed outside. Due to the expansion of the forbidden area, there were many rows of fences inside as well. But because of how strong the evil aura was inside no one dared to venture anywhere near the area. As the forbidden area expanded new fences were built around it to try to keep the locals out.
At this ti Alicia stood in front of the only gate leading into the forbidden area and frowned. "Loeri, take Frey and the rest and enter my space. I am afraid as we go in deeper they will not be able to handle this dense devil qi. To think I would et a devil cultivator here..." Alicia was quite surprised. She had an assumption when she first picked up the rock that the evil aura coming off it resembled devil qi. But now she knew for sure.
"That sounds. Good although Frey and I already have high cultivations the devil qi here is even oppressive to ..." Loeri felt sick just being near the forbidden area.
"Okay, then I will send you all in." Alicia smiled and waved her hand sending her friends back into her space. The only ones who did not go into her space were Blake and Queen Angelina. "If either of you feel sick please let know, I will send you into my space right away."
"I will make sure I do. Although I feel the oppression of the evil aura due to my race it will not affect much. Vampires were once evil after all." Queen Angelina let out a laugh.
"Blake what about you?" Alicia looked over at Blake, her eyes full of concern.
Blake only smiled and took her hand into his as he said: "Do not worry if I feel sick at all I will tell you right away. But just rember, one day I will be stronger than you. I have just started cultivating but I also have the blood of both the gods race and the celestial race running through my veins. When that day cos I will be there to protect you from whatever cos our way."
Alicia blushed and nodded her head before resting her forehead on Blake's chest. "Ahem ow can not stand the area anymore so if ow is okay with it I will take my leave."
woskins seed to be stuttering causing him to talk more like a cat than he normally would. His face was scrunched up, one look and you could tell he did not feel well. Alicia smiled and nodded her head. "I thank you for showing us here. I will do whatever I can to stop the spread of the forbidden area."
", as well as Queen Mittens and the people of Felinenia, would be in your debt if you can." owskins gave a bow before quickly running off. He was not able to withstand the evil aura anymore.
"I will wrap the two of you with my spiritual qi as well just for extra precaution." Alicia said as she sent out a stream of spiritual qi that wrapped around both Blake and Queen Angelina.
The group slowly made their way into the forbidden area. The dense devil qi was enough to make the area devoid of life. Alicia was amazed at how far the area had extended. They had already passed one hundred fences before finally reaching the final fence. This fence was ancient and falling apart. Alicia had touched it to only have it turn to dust in her hands.
"To think that this devil qi has been flowing out like this for thousands of years." Alicia said as she stood over the entrance to the cave that went straight down into a dark abyss. "From here we will need to fly down. From what Queen Mittens said the true god was sealed. It would be best to check to see if the seal has weakened which is allowing for this devil qi to flow out like this." Alicia knew she could easily seal off the entrance and keep all the devil qi inside the cave. But if the seal inside was beginning to weaken then it would not be good. That would an the true god that was sealed inside was on the verge of being set free.
"I also think that is best." Blake readily agreed.
"I wish I could go with you both but this evil aura is too strong for , can you send into your space Alicia?" Queen Angelina's face was becoming paler and paler. The strong devil qi was starting to pull on her own life force.
"Yeah rest up in the small cottage. Loeri and the girls will settle you in a room." Alicia said as she waved her hand, sending Queen Angelina into her space. After which Alicia and Blake continued their descent. Alicia used magic to light their way illuminating the cave walls that were tinged red.
After almost an hour of flying deeper into the cave, the cave floor finally ca into view. Alicia and Blake both landed on the ground and looked around. "Never thought such a thick devil qi could be found here on Phantasia. This Is very similar to the evil air that creates demon spawn Except this will kill a person who is not strong enough to withstand it or has the ans to purify it."
"I also never thought I would co face to face with such oppressive evil aura..." Blake was starting to feel overwheld. But he was still well enough to keep Alicia company.
"Oh? Visitors? It has been a long ti since a visitor has made their way down here." A voice echoed throughout the tunnels. This imdiately made Alicia and Blake beco vigilant. "Relax, I can not harm either of you. But do co down and have a chat with . I wish to find out how things are above ground."
Alicia looked at Blake who nodded at her knowing what she wanted to ask. Alicia took his hand into hers and slowly began to make her way down the tunnel that led to where the voice was coming from.
As they got further down the tunnel it ca to a bend which as soon as they turned the corner the area in front of them began to light up. But to their surprise what they found was not a rocky cave but more of a palace. A blueish barrier surrounded the palace and in the main yard of this palace was an old man with long white hair and a long white beard. He wore black robes but to her surprise, this old man did not look like the devil cultivators from the cultivation world he did not look sickly at all he looked normal with no signs of being affected by the devil qi at all.
The old man looked up and smiled seeing the two people in front of him. "It sure has been a long ti since I have seen another person. I hope you do not mind if I chat with you for a short while."
"I do not mind, but I have a question. Why is it that you do not look like a normal devil cultivator?" Alicia asked. She did not mind talking with soone who was locked up. It also did not hurt to hear what he had to say either.
"Devil qi? Oh, you an the chaos qi It is a bit different than devil qi... Although to call devil qi by this na is a little off as well since it is closer to the source than regular spiritual qi is."
