Chapter 3076
There wasn’t any light in the cave. The two couldn’t identify the time within this odd illusionary realm.
They even thought that time passed abnormally here. More importantly, they needed to finish the
challenge and get out of here.
Adrian couldn’t help but think about that ax inside his consciousness. Joe didn’t understand why it
would react so vigorously, rushing up the Heavenly Stairs and disappearing.

‘It wouldn’t have disappeared just like that, right?’
Adrian didn’t know that the ax had returned. Joe also didn’t realize that Xienna’s soul hade here to
look for her lover in the past. It was precisely because she interfered with the ax that it failed in its task,
and it gave up.

In reality, that ax did, in fact, want to leave Adrian’s mind. If it were to obtain that thing within the
Heavenly Stairs, it wouldn’t be able to stay within Adrian’s mind after that. However, Xienna’s
interference helped him out instead, preventing him from losing the mysterious ax.

At the time, Maximilia had woken up from her healing state, randomly saying, “Bjorne, what do you
think would happen to us when we fail our missions?”
Bjorne,
Alex,
Adrian had thought about this issue long ago. “We’d probably be fine. Lorelei and the others had tried
going up the stairs before. Even if they didn’t fail on the first step, it’s kind of the same since this flight
of stairs has almost ten thousand steps. Nothing happened to them, so we should be alright.”

Maximilia nodded. “I thought so too. Everything here is illusionary, not reality. So basically, we’re in
some sort of dream, pretending to be someone else. The entire process is fake.”
She sounded as if she was trying to convince someone.
Adrian understood her intentions and nodded as well. “Yeah. It’s like when I used to dream about one
of my female schoolmates back in high school.”

Maximilia seemed rather interested. “Who? Do I know her?”
Adrian shook his head. “You wouldn’t know her. She… She was cursed, just like you.”
Adrian
Alex
“The Witch Curse?”
“Something like that!”
Maximilia fell silent for a short while and asked, “What did you do when you dreamt about her?”
Adrian smiled. “Everything, but it was just a meaningless dream. It’s just like what we’re facing now,
except that we are both in the same dream.”

Maximilia seemed cheerful. “Mhm. That’s right.”
In reality, Adrian had deliberately said that to relieve her heart. Joe didn’t want her to be hung up on the
past.

After that, Adrian started breaking through the boundary. It wasn’t a difficult process, so he didn’t take
any longer than five minutes. The stone gates grumbled as a ray of light shone through the cracks.

“There’s light over there!” Maximilia was overjoyed and excited as she held onto her knife.
Who knew how conflicted and nervous she must’ve been in the pitch-ck environment, especially
with her extreme fear of the dark. She really didn’t want to experience the same thing ever again. They
thought that there would be monsters rushing out after the gates opened. However, it didn’t happen,
but the scenery in front of them still managed to freeze them in ce.
Behind the gate was an endless amount of water, but none of it flowed to the other side.
Upon closer inspection, there were quite a few Hydrophobic Beads around the gates. Moreover, the
formation itself had the ability to close the water off.
“Kroraina’s strategist is a genius too. They’re able to block the water using a Hydrophobic Bead.”
“This is probably a pond within the Kroraina Kingdom, and the gate is most likely the bottom.”
“Let’s take one of those beads then. They might be useful,” Maximilia said.
Adrian immediately stopped her. “Don’t, the Hydrophobic Beads are the key to this formation. If one
bead is lost, the formation might change. This life door might turn into a death door.”
Adrian
Alex
“Alright, I’ll listen to you!”
The two then walked into the cave. Taking a deep breath, Maximilia grabbed onto Adrian’s arm and
jumped into the water. The water pressure was quite strong, and Adrian was simply fortunate it didn’t
crush him.
