After the Green portal appeared in front of them, Yasenia frowned and asked, "Was the portal's color like this? I don't remember it that way."

They all shook their heads. Cecile said with caution. "It is probably like Jaxon told us. The Demon race outside has done something to the portal."

Yasenia sighed, "I was hoping for it to be a lie, but it seems that it wasn't just a scary comment."

Angel proposed. "How about we don't cross it?"

Yasenia shook her head. "If we do so, we'll be trapped here for who knows how much time. Right now, we have to grow stronger, and we've already exhausted most opportunities to do so in the Secret Realm. We need to gain things outside."

Yasenia then said. "Moreover, I want to meet with Mom as soon as possible. I'm willing to take the risk and face whatever the Demons had prepared for us."

They looked at Yasenia's resolved expression and nodded. They knew that no matter the challenges ahead, Yasenia was going to charge forward.

Yasenia saw that they didn't contradict her, so a smile appeared on her face. "Hug Sierra closely. We don't want to leave her behind."

Evelyn and the others crouched with Yasenia and also hugged Sierra by grabbing her fur.

Then, Yasenia said aloud. "Let's go. It's better if we don't delay."

Our dragoness was still being held hostage by the five of them, so she could only order and not walk herself. Sierra obeyed and began walking toward the enormous semi-circular green portal.

Sierra approached the portal, and when she was about to touch it, the portal acted like a mouth and surrounded them.

Yasenia used her spiritual sense and saw that Laurina and the others were walking right behind them, so they were also being surrounded by the portal. Yasenia said aloud. "Keep your heads calm. Whatever they've prepared, we'll overcome it!"

Then, the rift opened completely and swallowed them.

The green portal shrunk, and soon, it disappeared, leaving nothing behind.

At last, Yasenia and the others left the Secret Realm!

Meanwhile, inside the portal, it was a strange situation. The first time, they felt as if they were traveling at extremely high speeds with a protective bubble around them.

However, that wasn't the case anymore. Yasenia and the others felt the spatial tear and strain on their bodies. It was as if a force was trying to pull them apart from each other and send them who knew where.

Their expression changed, and their cultivation burst out, increasing the control in the space around them. Yasenia was about to say something as the warped surroundings flashed by, but her spiritual sense caught Laurina and the others suddenly being pulled away in different directions. It was so fast that she couldn't even react.

Yasenia's expression changed, "Don't let anyone go! If you really want not to separate, don't hold anything back!"

As soon as Yasenia told them, their eyes became serious and released everything within.

The spatial tunnel they were traveling trembled as their aura shook the place. However, Cecile and the others still felt their grip on Yasenia slowly slipping.

Yasenia looked around, but she couldn't guess when this would end! Therefore, she didn't know what to do for a second.

However, when she felt that Ebirah's legs were about to slip away from Andrea's body, her brain flashed with realization.

Instantly, she extended her claw and moved the energy inside her dantian. The small quantity of Celestial Energy inside her dantian appeared on top of her claw.

The starry blue dot of bright energy was like a star in the Universe. However, its aura spread in the surroundings like an unstoppable tide. Right after the Celestial Energy dot appeared, they all felt their surroundings calm down. The sensation was similar to being inside the protective bubble again, and they looked at Yasenia with smiles. "Good job- Huh?"

Yasenia was extremely new to Celestial Energy, so she didn't really know its strength. Summoning all her Celestial Energy on top of the palm and controlling it was something she shouldn't be able to do yet.

Therefore, to do so, she was using her [Empyrean Galaxy Domain] to trap it and the exhausted [Celestial Pearl]'s influence to calm it and avoid exploding it.

If the environment were calm, she would be able to summon it without problems. However, they were inside a spatial tunnel right now, and she was using it to ward them from the turbulent space.

Yasenia's eyes were red, not because they had changed but because their blood vessels had exploded. Her body was filled with cracks, and her mouth and nose flowed with blood. Yasenia would love to tell them not to worry, but she felt that her limbs would separate from her body the second she lost concentration.

Mirrory said to the scared girls. "Don't be surprised. The fact that she can forcefully control Celestial Energy to create a safe space is impressive. Right now, Yasenia is being affected by the pulling force all of you are receiving at the moment. If this spatial tunnel continues for thirty more seconds, Yasenia's body will be ripped into pieces."

Cecile's eyes widened, and she instantly asked. "Help! How do we help her!?"

Mirrory contemplated for a second, and then she sighed. "Sigh, who told me to open my mouth? Anyway, listen to me. Evelyn, Andrea, summon your Natural Treasures and use their aura to try and compress the Celestial Energy. Cecile, use your connection with Yasenia to channel energy into her; it shouldn't be hard. Kali, use your healing spells to heal Yasenia's body. Valeria, support Kali. Angel, focus inside you and summon me, but control yourself. Remember that if you summon too much of my body, you will literally die."

They all followed her orders instantly.

Andrea's and Evelyn's Natural Treasures pressed on the Celestial energy, and they instantly felt as if something had tried to expand their bodies. Evelyn and Andrea didn't expect such a strong reaction, and they spat a mouthful of blood because of some internal injuries.

The monstrous power of Celestial Energy didn't allow anything to control it. Therefore, them trying to compress it was like a mortal trying to put two magnets together.

However, their eyes were only filled with resolve as they forced themselves to compress it further.

Cecile was hugging Yasenia from behind, so she hugged her closer and used their soul connection to connect with Yasenia's soul. She easily managed to do so because Yasenia had no guard against Cecile.

Cecile's expression changed because she felt that even the powerful soul of the dragoness was about to burst. Cecile instantly flew toward the Dragon soul floating in the air and dove inside it. Then, she released all her energy.

From the outside, it appeared like silver threads were flowing from Cecile toward Yasenia.

With only these two, Yasenia already felt much less pressure. However, she was still suffering.

Kali didn't lose time and summoned an improvised [Flower Bed], covering Yasenia's body with the flowers instead of placing them on the ground. She could do so because Yasenia was bleeding, and the [Flower Bed] could feed on blood. Yasenia's nutritious blood was like a stimulant, and Kali's healing prowess basically multiplied.

Moreover, with Valeria helping, Yasenia felt as if a refreshing spring was seeping inside her, mending the damaged organs, bones, veins, and muscles.

Yasenia finally felt enough relief to be able to speak intermittently. "Don't... Feel... Bad... We will... not separate... and overcome this!"

They nodded with serious faces. After one minute, Angel opened her eyes, and the aura around her multiplied. Her hair changed to a beautiful scarlet red, and her eyes turned a vibrant green. The feeling of strength around her wasn't any smaller than Yasenia's.

Thankfully, there wasn't any air to move with the shockwave, so they didn't feel anything but the pressure it had. Even then, their expression couldn't help but change. 'Strong!'

"[Truth Mirror Summoning]." Angel's silvery voice echoed, and a pristine Mirror appeared behind her. It was small, just one meter long and one meter wide. However, the presence it had was even deeper and stronger than Yasenia's Celestial energy.

The bubble around them was about ten meters in radius. However, after a truly small part of Mirrory's true body appeared, it ballooned and became almost fifty meters in radius. Mirrory's voice came from nowhere and everywhere at the same time. Unlike other times, this time, it carried a solemn and sacred feeling with it. "Children, you can stop for the moment. However, the second Angel's energy runs out, you must implement what I've told you again."

They all instinctively nodded as if whatever she said couldn't be disobeyed. Yasenia's eyes turned toward Angel, and she smiled. "How do you feel, Baby?"

Angel looked at her own red hair and caught some strands with her small hand. Then, she smiled and said. "Strong! I feel that nobody can beat me!"

Yasenia laughed softly. "That's good. By the way, how is your energy doing?"

Angel's smile froze, and then her eyes widened. "Wow! I'm going to be dry in three minutes."

Their eyes also widened in surprise. Angel's energy reservoir was very deep. She had so much energy that fighting for one day straight wasn't a problem.

Mirrory's voice echoed again. "What did you expect, Angel? Do you think I'm some random thing? With your current strength, you should be able to fight against all of the others present here. You wouldn't win, but you could defend yourself. However, remember that if you use me to attack, unlike just summoning me as you are doing now, your energy will disappear even faster!"

The others almost choked on their own saliva.

Evelyn asked. "Mirrory, how much until we exit the tunnel?"

Mirrory's pondering voice echoed again. "Hmm, normally, spatial transportation is almost instantaneous. However, the longer it lasts, the further we should be going. We should've already left your World at the pace we are going. We should be approaching another one. Returning to your homes will be difficult, children."

Yasenia felt her heart dropping for a second. However, remembering the situation in the Sky Continent, she sighed. "It may have been for the best..."

The others patted the dragoness, knowing what she was thinking.

Valeria closed her eyes and opened them ten seconds later. "We are reaching the end of the tunnel. All of you, prepare yourselves and hug each other again." Valeria rushed inside Kali and disappeared.

Without delay, they all grabbed the dragoness like a shared plushy one more time, not minding the blood around her, and crouched to grab onto Sierra. Mirrory said. "Unsummon me."

Angel didn't disobey or ask and followed her instruction. The small mirror turned into a light streak and sunk into Angel again, returning her hair and eyes to the normal blonde and blue.

The protective bubble around them shrunk extremely fast. However, they exited from the spatial tunnel before they could be affected again by the powerful spatial turbulence.

After a flash of light, they exited the green warped space and were greeted by a beautiful blue sky.

Then, their bodies felt weightless, and the wind blew on their faces.

They looked around, only to see some clouds far in the distance but below them in height.

Sierra feared the worst and looked down. To her horror, they were up in the sky.

Sierra lamented aloud, "T-To think I would die just after leaving that cage... My destiny is truly sad."

Of course, Sierra did not know that even if they fell, the air resistance would slow them enough to land at speeds far slower than what they usually achieve while fighting.

Since the girls were educated in this matter, they were relaxed and looked at the surroundings.

Evelyn laughed aloud, "Don't be so dramatic; we are just falling from... Hmm, at least one hundred kilometers? Moreover, Cecile and Yasenia can fly and float if we want to with the help of energy. Falling from this height is not lethal."

Sierra relaxed after hearing so, so she also looked around.
