Portal

"How is this possible?"

Ji Chen had cold sweat running down his back. He was quite freaked out that so many things were even stored here. Ji Chen looked towards Mu Lu:

"Does it have everything it says it has?"

Ji Chen asked the question quite hurriedly. He had just seen something that he must have.

"It has more..."

Mu Lu shook his head as he spoke with an understanding tone.

"More? It has more?"

Ji Chen was stupefied. How long would it take to collect such precious items? Trillions or Quadrillions of years!

"The results are filtered, If you want better results, you could always turn off the filters, they have billions of rare items."

Mu Lu murmured.

"How long has The Evil God been alive?"

Ji Chen, with his dazed face, asked.

"Billions of Years. The System was made by many 'beyond'!"

Mu Lu hissed.

"Of course, such items couldn't be obtained by a single being!"

Ji Chen nodded.

Mu Lu nodded alongside Ji Chen. There were countless items shown within The System. No matter what age a single being lived till it was impossible to collect everything.

"Do you understand?"

Mu Lu harrumphed, showing his pride.

"Fine! Everything can be bought from The System!"

Ji Chen had no choice but to admit defeat. Looking at Mu Lu's cold face, Ji Chen snickered:

"What are you proud of? Aren't I the host of The System?"

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!"

Mu Lu avoided the conversation by using his trump card: The quest.

"Let's go!"

Ji Chen knew there weren't any benefits in annoying Mu Lu. He just rolled along with what Mu Lu said.

"So are you going to use your 'Divine' powers?"

Mu Lu patted Ji Chen's shoulders.

"How else do you think we would go?"

Ji Chen sneered. It really felt good sneering at Mu Lu. He had heard this was friendship.

-Ahh, truly wonderful having a friend!

Ji Chen stretched as he thought of Mu Lu as being his friend. Though it may sound cringe and unoriginal, Ji Chen was feeling quite warm in his heart due to Mu Lu. He had never experienced such a thing when he was with Rose, Lavender or Lily. The relationship with them was more like a child and guardian.

"Why are you stretching?"

Mu Lu questioned.

"Just like with Sky God, a Divine can use 'portal'."

Ji Chen responded.

"You are going to go from the Eighth Heaven to the Thirty-Third by using 'portal'?"

Mu Lu had a shocked face.

It was indeed possible to use Portal as a Sky God. 'Portal', as a Sky God, allowed the user to teleport from a Heaven to another, but it was only one Heaven. The side effects from 'portal' were also terrible. The user would suffer at least a year of nausea and have a higher chance for Cultivation diseases.

"Of course, how else would I go down to the Thirty-Third Heaven? I don't have some special Divine powers!"

Ji Chen chided.

"I'm not a child, don't chide me!"

Mu Lu retorted.

"You have the mind of a child!"

Ji Chen hissed.

"Says the one who is actually a child!"

Mu Lu countered.

The two kept going on for about a few minutes.

"Should we go now?"

Mu Lu insisted.

"Fine!"

Ji Chen needed a way out anyway.

Ji Chen swung his arm vertically which let out a breeze that would destroy worlds and mountains. But somehow, the environment didn't get affected. A dark green space started to form in front of Ji Chen and Mu Lu. The 'space' was hazy and bleak.

"Should we go in?"

Ji Chen groaned.

Mu Lu was staying still as he was drawn to the depth of the 'portal'. He realised what he was delaying and snapped out of his daze.

"This is quite deep. Are you sure we will only get to the Thirty-Third Heaven? We may go down below to The Immortal World with how deep this seems to be...."

Mu Lu blurted.

Mu Lu had seen a 'portal' performed only once, and that was by one of The Sins. The depth wasn't even a tenth as deep as Ji Chen's.

"You think I'm that bad at controlling my Qi? I'll have you know that I've competed against many, but I've never lost in a Qi Controlling match! I can surely beat your lame arse!"

Mu Lu hissed.

"Wasn't your combat prowess below your realm? You don't have the right to take the mick out of me!"

Mu Lu retorted. Though Mu Lu had retorted, he couldn't deny Ji Chen's talent. The higher realm you become, the harder it became to sustain the Combat Prowess of the same realm. For example, the average age for becoming a Normal Sky Realm was around 3000 years old. If someone became a Sky Realm below that age, many would lack the experience to even rival those of the most average Sky Realm. It was surprising enough for Ji Chen to keep such Combat Prowess at such a young age.

Mu Lu looked at Ji Chen enviously and walked into the 'portal'...
