Cultivation Goddess
Chapter 373. Locking Dimension Portal

Jian Heng and Fang Yin could not relax. They returned quickly to the palace of the Eastern Continent Empire by teleporting. The two arrived in front of the palace hall which turned out to be filled with palace residents.

The Fang Yin and Jian Heng families were also in the midst of them. Regardless of what they were doing, their faces looked panicked upon seeing Fang Yin's arrival.

"Yin'er! Heng! Where have you been?" shi Jun Hui asked with his face off.

Jian Heng and Fang Yin were confused by his grandfather's attitude which looked annoyed at the two. They just came and didn't know what was going on today.

"What's up, Cake? Is something going on?" fang Yin asked confusedly.

Shi Jun Hui sighed deeply then exhaled slowly. His heart was completely current even though he had seen Fang Yin and Jian Heng in a state of fine."

Concubine Shi then interrupted and said, "We are very worried about you guys. You always throw tantrums and disappear at will. How can we calm down because soon you're getting married."

Fang Yin and Jian Heng grimaced feeling guilty towards his family. They did not expect that their short departure would make his family anxious. They had no plans to leave so they did not say goodbye to their families.

"There was something important that forced us to leave the palace. Can we talk inside?" Fang Yin walked towards the meeting room leaving his mother.

Arguing with his mother and grandfather will never end. If it stays there maybe they are still talking and wasting a lot of time on unimportant things.

Fang Yin and Jian Heng's serious attitude kept everyone quiet. They no longer dared to blame the two given that there was something more important than their anger.

Fang Yin sat on his seat of greatness facing the entire family members and the palace dignitaries. The atmosphere in the room was still silent as Fang Yin had yet to start the conversation. He is still waiting for the governing council that is still coming.

Originally the news of who Cau Ahlin was and the dragon dimension would only be kept for himself and his extended family. However, given that such a terrible prophecy was possible, the story of who he was should be known to everyone.

"Everything has gathered. I want to say something important to listen to." Fang Yin began to speak in a loud voice.

"Please, Your Majesty!" everyone is almost at the same time.

"First, I want to explain about my sudden departure. Me and Brother Heng went to meet the old hermit who lived in the temple that was behind the palace. Previously we wanted to see the phenomenon that occurs today whether it has been set in astrology predictions or not. However, because we did not find a token to open the astrology room. We decided to go see the old hermit grandfather and ask about this phenomenon."

Everyone was still focused on waiting for Fang Yin to speak again. They did not make any sound while waiting for Fang Yin to compose his words.

"Mirror prophecy from the old hermit grandfather shows that this phenomenon is not an ordinary phenomenon. We see that the natural phenomenon that occurs is a beginning of a catastrophe in which hundreds of dragons will invade this country and destroy anything that stands in its way." Fang Yin paused his story again.

Some people whispered and expressed their anxiety. They did not feel that they had never offended a dragon emperor or killed a dragon spirit beast that did not live in the human world.

They continued to discuss until they made the room become rowdy. Everyone has an opinion and speculates according to what they think. The atmosphere regained its calm as Guan Xin advanced to the center and calmed them down.

"Please continue, Your Majesty," Guan Xing said after the situation returned conducive.

Fang Yin nodded.

"Whenever it happened like in the past, Emperor Gu had a child out of wedlock who became the ruler in the dragon dimension. My disappearance a while ago was caused by him. However, we had made peace before I returned to the human world. I don't know what happened after I left there and I saw the prophetic image of the old hermit that Cau Ahlin was the one leading this attack." Fang Yin had yet to reveal the solution of this problem to see the reactions of the people around him.

They whispered and discussed with each other. Anxiety accompanied by fear was clearly visible on their faces. Fang Yin was so good at provoking their opinions about circumstances that were not necessarily the case.

"Will His Majesty prepare an army to face them? It seemed to be very difficult to fight against those dragons considering that they possessed a power that could destroy anything in front of them." Huan Ran expressed his opinion. He imagined the circumstances that would occur if the hundreds of dragons came to attack.

"No," Fang Yin replied.

The atmosphere became rowdy upon hearing Fang Yin's reply. The feeling of being afraid of death made them not to be exhausted by Fang Yin's thought path. Even though the leader of the attack was his brother he should not have sacrificed the people he should have protected.

"Calm down!" yelled Jian Heng.

Everyone was silent again.

Jian Heng stared intently at Fang Yin and demanded him to immediately continue the news that should have been delivered in full.

"I'm thinking of a strategy. Don't gossip about me and think that I don't care about my country. I need a person who mastered the four-way wind formation technique. As for finding the portal created by Cau Ahlin, I will check it myself." Fang Yin told everyone his plan.

They're speechless. Apparently Fang Yin did not want to involve many people to deal with the dragons. Their conjecture turned out to be wrong and made them regret having assumed a bad one towards Fang Yin.

Tian Feng advanced forward. He was willing to go find where the dimensional portal was located. For the sake of maintaining Fang Yin's safety, he was willing to do this task to replace her.

Emperor Xi came forward and said he mastered the four-wind formation technique. To execute this formation he needed three other strong men to support the formation he had set up.

Shi Han Wu, Shi Jun Hui and Guan Xing became the three supporting pillars of the formation that Emperor Xi was about to undertake. They forbade Jian Heng and Fang Yin to take part in overcoming this problem.

Once agreed upon, they decided to move as soon as possible given the time left could not be predicted. The old hermit said that the assault was less than three days. The size of the time said is uncertain so they have to act quickly before a bad thing happens.

It was getting dark when they finished discussing. The inhabitants of the palace were still partially gathered in front of the hall. They want to know how the problem will be solved.

Emperor Xi brought all the people involved in the four cardinal directions formation. Especially Tian Feng, he had to go upstairs through the black clouds to look for the dimensional portal that Cau Ahlin was trying to open.

"Be careful! We are waiting for good news from you" Emperor Xi told Tian Feng.

"Hm." Tian Feng nodded then jumped up and disappeared in the darkness of the night.

Everyone was anxiously waiting for news from him. Before the portal was found, the formation of the four cardinal directions could not be done.

Concubine Tang walked up to Emperor Xi and looked at her beginning anxious face. Tian Feng had been gone for quite some time but there was no sign yet that he had found where the portal was. The thick black clouds make it difficult for anyone to see the altitude and maybe also the clouds are layered.

"Your Majesty, may I take part in this matter. I'll try to get rid of those clouds. Maybe I can do it." Concubine Tang offered her help.

The eyes of Emperor Xi sparkled. She just remembered that Consort Tang was a rainbender. Panic makes him unable to think clearly and forget important things.

"God! How could I forget you? Thank you, Princess Tang. I'm counting on you."

Jian Heng and Fang Yin looked at each other. They also knew that his mother had the ability to control rain. However, anxiety made both of them forget.

Concubine Tang walked to a slightly roomy place. If he used to control the clouds to come, now he would drive them away. With the departure of the dark clouds then the portal in the sky will be visible.

Many did not know that Consort Tang was a Rain Goddess born from the Tang Clan. They looked at her in astonishment as Consort Tang began to make movement after movement to control the clouds.

Slowly the clouds that overshadowed the land began to move away layer by layer. He thought that the dragon spirit beast that was trying to mess up also had the same ability as him. They brought in these clouds to hide the portal so that no one was aware of their arrival.

In the darkness of the night the light of the portal began to appear even though thin clouds were still milling about in the sky. The clouds were like not giving up on resisting Consort Tang's strength.

Sweat poured down from Consort Tang's body as he managed to shake off the clouds covering the portal. Even so he remained concentrated on getting rid of the new clouds that kept popping up.

"See that's the portal!" the Emperor Xi.

The members of the four-way windward formation began to prepare and take positions. They made moves according to the direction of Emperor Xi.

Energy began to radiate and gather at one point. Slowly the energy gathered moved up. At first the movement was very slow then it turned very fast and shot through the heights towards the dimensional portal.

Tian Feng slid down with quite a cause for concern. Behind the hidden clouds were two dragons attacking him. Luckily, he survived and returned safely.

Consorts Shi and Yu Ruo immediately greeted him to treat him. They pull over and do their help.

Fang Yin caught up with his parents and grandmother to help provide help.

"Are you okay, Dad?" fang Yin asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, Yin'er. Go back to formation. It's not safe yet" Tian Feng said seriously.

"All right!" Fang Yin nodded then returned to the formation formed by Emperor Xi and the others.

Concubine Tang stopped doing her duty as the black clouds no longer came. Consort Tang's great strength allowed her to recover quickly without any help from anyone.

The radiance from Shi Jun Hui's hands began to dim. The process of closing the portal which took quite a long time left his energy drained. In order to make the formation back in balance, Fang Yin transferred his energy by attaching his two energy-containing palms to Shi Jun Hui's back.

The state stabilized again and continued to break through the defense of the dimensional portal which began to weaken. However, along with that the energy from Guan Xing's hand also started to weaken. There must be someone who transfers energy to stabilize the four-way formation of the wind and re-energize.

Jian Heng advanced forward then stood behind Guan Xing's back. His two hands began to stall forward with energy radiating through the meridians on his back. The energy that entered Guan Xin's body made the energy that radiated in the formation increase.

With the energy transfer added by Fang Yin and Jian Heng, the four-way wind eye formation was able to close the dimensional portal faster than before. They succeed.

After the dimensional portal closed perfectly then the assault mission that will be carried out by Cau Ahlin will certainly fail. Everyone gathered in the courtyard of the hall cheered happily when the formation set up by Emperor Xi managed to seal the dimensional portal and make it disappear.

Their hard work paid off even though they had to lose a lot of energy for this. The energy spent on conducting the four-way windward formation was greater than the energy expended to fight against the enemy for a full day.

"remove! Find somewhere to take cover!" fang Yin exclaimed as she leaped into the air quickly.

Without a second thought Jian Heng followed him and caught up with him quickly. She did not know what made Fang Yin as sweet as that but she tried to stay together with her lover.

The palace occupants followed Fang Yin's orders and ran around looking for shelter. They did not understand what was happening but hearing Fang Yin's panicked-sounding command, they scattered like ants splashed by water.

The two dragons guarding the portal looked furious and descended to attack the palace. They did not accept when the dimensional portal they had created had to be sealed and it was impossible to resurrect again.

The two dragons could not return to the dragon dimension after the dimensional portal locked. They chose to avenge him and fight to the death against Fang Yin.

'Yang Hui! Get ready! We must unite to defeat that troublemaking dragon spirit beast.' Fang Yin called Yang Hui.

'Okay, Your Majesty."

Fang Yin's body turned into a dragon in its entirety then moved swiftly towards the dragon spirit beast. He did not want the dragon to come down and destroy his palace. Before the dragon spirit beast attacked him, Fang Yin made an attack first to restrain him.

Jian Heng also carried out an attack with his companion dragon crystal. He did not fuse with the spirit beast he had obtained but merely utilized his strength alone.

The dragon spirit energy crystal that Jian Heng possessed chime with his lightning element. The dragon spirit formed possessed strength equivalent to that of a real spirit beast that was in the upper levels. Although it was only a dragon spirit but he was very aggressive to attack opponents who were marked by their owners.

Fang Yin and the dragon spirit Jian Heng attacked the two dragon spirit beasts that continued to spurt fire. To avoid damage, Fang Yin and Jian Heng lured them to fight away from the palace and the city center. The released energy throw could have targeted and destroyed anything that was hit by it.

"How could you possibly know if we'd come to attack this place?" asked one of the spirit beasts facing Fang Yin. His voice sounded like an old grandfather.

The other spirit beasts were fighting against Jian Heng in different places. They don't talk to each other because they don't know each other.

"I'm no stranger to you. Oh, I remember, you are a ruthless dragon who almost made me die when I arrived in the dragon dimension. It's easy for me to know what attack you're planning and not have to ask how I found out." Fang Yin spoke as he continued to make attacks. He will not be fooled by his tricks.

"Oh, so you're that stupid weakling? You are a dragon too." The dragon spirit beast spoke arrogantly.

"I am weak. Very weak but believe me after this you will die at my hands." Fang Yin moved backwards to take a pause.

The old spirit beast laughed out loud. The energy aura in his body was greater than the energy aura that Fang Yin possessed. Fang Yin's speech was considered a mere nonsense.

An enormous burst of flames shot out from the mouth of the dragon spirit beast grabbing onto Fang Yin's body and making his body invisible wrapped in flames. The dragon spirit beast thought that his opponent had been burned by the top-tier red flames of his.

Slowly the flames that enveloped Fang Yin's body turned black. The red-colored flame belonging to the dragon spirit beast had disappeared and was devoured completely by it. Fang Yin's form turned into a larger golden dragon and had a crown that shone brightly on his head.

"Dragon Goddess!" exclaimed the dragon spirit beast suddenly losing its arrogance.

How hard he tried would be nothing to the Dragon Goddess. There was no other choice for the dragon spirit beast other than to prepare to accept his death.

"You're surprised? Let's attack or I'll attack you now?" Fang Yin moved around the body of the dragon spirit beast.

The dragon spirit beast did not move in the slightest.

"Kill me. Consider this in return for my arrogance all along. I won't fight you again after this." The dragon spirit beast looked resigned.

Fang Yin did not immediately believe his words. It could be that what he said was a trick for his opponent to lower his guard against him.

Elsewhere Jian Heng had managed to defeat the spirit beast that was his opponent. He was trying to gather his essence to form a spirit crystal.

"The sweet words. Where is the threat you've shown me? Do you think I can trust easily? The answer is no. Brother Ahlin the person I trust just has bad intentions what else are you who are nobody to me."

Fang Yin vented his annoyance at the dragon spirit beast.

"I'm just following orders. Prince Ahlin is just a puppet. He is controlled by his mother. You were wrong to have thought that his mother was not involved in the forbidden technique that trapped you," explained the dragon spirit beast.

"I don't care. The four corners of the wind eye formation had permanently sealed off the dragon and human world dimensional portals. No force can open it."

The dragon spirit beast grew even more helpless and continued to bow. His hopes of gaining a high position in front of his king should be dashed. The entire dragon dimensional occupants would not win against the Dragon Goddess even though they moved together.

"I see loyalty in your eyes, but dear, that loyalty is not directed at me. Maybe my decision was so cruel but living in the midst of humans will also be the same for you. I'm sorry, I have to kill you." Fang Yin took out an energy ball and released it into the body of the dragon spirit beast.

The body of the dragon spirit beast shattered unceasingly into a glowing explosion of light and descended scattering in space. Fang Yin deliberately did not take out his spirit crystal and let his soul freely determine its place of refuge.

The soul light of the spirit beast killed by Fang Yin shot into the sky and disappeared with the stars.

The finished Jian Heng first moved towards Fang Yin. They came down with a body that had returned to being human.

"Why don't you take the energy essence from the spirit beast you conquered?" jian Heng asked.

"I respect his loyalty. May his soul choose to serve him after he is resurrected."

Jian Heng nodded in appreciation of Fang Yin's decision.

In the courtyard of the palace hall looked desolate. When Fang Yin and JIan Heng went down there, only their nuclear families remained. The other residents had returned to their respective residences to secure their families and property just in case something bad might happen.

"Yin'er, Heng'er! Are you guys all right?" concubine Tang and Consort Ning asked almost in unison.

"We're fine, Mother." Fang Yin touched the hands of his future mother-in-law.

They were moved by Fang Yin and Jian Heng's struggles. Two people who should have been protected.

Consort Shi still looked focused on treating Tian Feng who was starting to improve.

"I'm back, Mother." Fang Yin approached Consort Shi and helped him stand up.

Tian Feng's treatment had been completed for a moment before Fang Yin approached him.

"Bad child, until when are you going to worry your mother. The bride-to-be shouldn't be out of the room without an escort." Concubine Shi continued her pending tirade.

Everyone laughed when they heard it. Fang Yin did not reply in the slightest to his mother's words. He just showed a intimidated expression. If that was the case, Yu Ruo would have come to defend him.

A small debate between Concubine Shi and Yu Ruo accompanied their journey towards their respective rooms. They parted ways while finding the intersection until only Fang Yin and Jian Heng remained.

"I hope there are no more events that make our lives chaotic. Our wedding ceremony must still be performed, Yin'er." Jian Heng looked extremely annoyed.

"What makes you talk like that, Brother Heng? Who would want to cancel the wedding," Fang Yin murmured with pursed lips.
