Chapter 1352 She Holds A Special Place In His Heart

Lilly had finished her meal and even enjoyed some fish soup, which helped alleviate her sense of

weakness.

"Indeed, eating is essential for regaining our strength!" Lilly patted her satisfied belly and let out a

contented sigh.

Ivan found it amusing that Lilly could cultivate her strength through eating. She was truly unique. After

this hearty meal, he also felt much better. His fingertips were no longer numb, and his complexion had

noticeably improved.

Lilly stood up and prepared herself for exertion, declaring, "There's nothing that a good meal can't

solve. And if it can't, then two meals will do!"

Ivan nodded in agreement.

So, should they forcefully open the door?

Ivan flexed his muscles, concentrated his strength in his elixir field, and prepared to push against the

Nether Door once more.

Lilly held her chin, deep in thought. "Hmm, do you think, instead of pushing, we should try pulling the

door open?"

Ivan instinctively replied, "No, that can't be."

It couldn't be such a simple solution! If it were, he would have looked like a fool for putting so much

effort into pushing the door. He would have been embarrassed.

They exchanged glances.

Suddenly, Ivan's confidence wavered.

Lilly ran over and tried to pry the door open with a "heave-ho."

However, the Nether Door remained unmoving.

Ivan inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll give it another try," he said.

Ivan stepped forward, his palm covering the Nether Door, his mind racing.

It was rumored that only Emperor Greenbow had the power to open the Nether Door. Even Emperor

Eastmount couldn't. This meant Ivan must possess some supernatural powers or a specific magical

artifact suited for dealing with the Nether Door. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Ivan began to recall all the magical artifacts, mysterious objects, or anything else he had obtained

during their journey.

He first tried using a scepter, combining it with his spiritual consciousness, but the Nether Door

remained motionless. Then he took an ancient rune from his ring and gestured at the door, but it had

no effect.

"If brute force won't open the Nether Door, then…" Ivan searched for mechanisms or unique shapes on

both sides of the Nether Door.

At that moment, Lilly grabbed his hand.

Ivan turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

She tightly held his hand and hesitated to speak, "Ivan, could it have something to do with your blood?

That's how they portray it on TV."

Ivan let out a "huh?" and said, "That can't be. Just now, after fighting against the black-robed man, I

spat out some blood and my entire body was covered in it. If dripping blood could open the Nether

Door, it would have been opened long ago."

Lilly asked, "Maybe there isn't enough blood?"

Ivan couldn't believe it. How could she suggest taking his blood?

He laughed it off, unable to help himself. However, he watched as Lilly produced silver needles.

Suddenly, he was reminded of the horrifying scene when those needles pierced the black-robed man's

chest, causing an explosion.

"Uh, forget it…" Lilly put away the silver needles. "It's too dangerous."

Ivan felt warmth in his heart. Yes, she still cared about him.

However, the next second, he saw Lilly fetch a knife. "Use this instead, a regular knife. It's not as

dangerous." She looked up at the speechless Ivan and revealed a toothy smile.

He pressed his temples. No, the little Lilly he knew wouldn't act like this. She must be joking.

Sure enough, before he could say anything, she put away the knife and said, "Forget it. Let's try a

different approach."

Ivan's heart softened. He knew it. She had grown up, and she could even make jokes now!

"If the Nether Door is difficult to open, then let's see if we can cut the Nether Chain…" Lilly suggested.

She looked at the spot where the Nether Door held the iron chain. It appeared delicate, like a cicada's

wing, and should be easier to deal with compared to the Nether Door.

"Maybe if we cut it... it will snap!" Lilly said. With those words, her eyes sharpened, and she aimed the

pen at the vulnerable part of the Nether Chain.

She was indeed a little anxious. She had been away from Mount Everest for so long, not knowing how

her parents, the Crawford Ancestor, and her seventh uncle were doing. Would they enter Mount

Everest because of her?

She wanted to resolve the matter of the Nether Chain quickly and return as soon as possible. That's

why she was in such a hurry.

Talking about taking blood from Ivan was just a joke. Even if she was in a hurry, she would never harm

others.

Not to mention, after their fierce battle with the black-robed man, Ivan had lost so much blood. If

dripping blood worked, the Nether Door would have been opened ages ago!

A loud boom echoed as Primordial Creation pounded the slender Nether Chain, but it remained

unscathed!

Lilly was shocked. "Where did this chain come from? It's incredibly strong. The pen of judgment can't

even damage it."

Upon closer inspection, there wasn't a single mark on it.

Ivan suggested, "Let me try."

He wielded his scepter, unleashing his power. The overwhelming darkness seemed capable of

devouring everything, but the seemingly fragile Nether Chain remained undamaged.

Not to mention breaking the chain, it was impossible to even scratch it.

"Do we really need to open the Nether Door?" Lilly hesitated. It wasn't that she was easily discouraged,

but after trying, she realized that both the Nether Chain and the Nether Door were too difficult to

overcome with their current strength.

"Let's go. We should head back," Ivan said. "Your parents must be worried. After we return and let

them know we're safe, we can come back here."

They had been overly optimistic earlier. For the first time, Ivan realized that he had been too

presumptuous, believing that simply being Emperor Greenbow would provide a solution to opening the

Nether Door. It seemed he had been too naive.

Lilly asked, "Um, does that mean we have to leave the Earth Goddess tied up?"

Ivan kept his gaze straight ahead. "There's no other choice."

Lilly blinked.

The two exchanged a brief glance before looking away.
