Death… And Me

Chapter 946 - Spatial Powers

Rean looked at the chamberʼs protection formation before looking at everyone, saying, ”Itʼll probably take some time until the protection formation runs out of energy. Just in case, both senior Duran and Frin should stay here in case it opens. The rest of us should check out whatʼs happening outside to the Blood Lake.”

Frin and Duran nodded in response, knowing that they were the only ones who could do anything against the demon. As for the rest, they quickly jumped on Kentucky and Gulanʼs back before flying outside. They saw that the area of the Blood Lake was getting smaller as the blood kept moving to the lakeʼs center. Naturally, Reanʼs group headed straight there.

When they arrived at the island, they were taken aback. They could see countless souls escaping from the opening in the islandʼs center. They didnʼt fly for much longer, though. After a few moments outside, they would dissipate completely.

Roan, of course, recognized that phenomenon, thinking, ʼThose souls canʼt be saved anymore.. They are transforming into Soul Energy and are entering the underworld on their own. They have no need for a Death Spirit anymore.ʼ However, he kept it to himself.

Reanʼs group then left the souls aside and focused on the island itself. The demon beast blood continued to congregate at the center of the island, gathering at a single point above the highest point. There, the blood created a whirlpool that spun at breakneck speeds. It was hard to imagine how so much blood could be concentrated in that single point.

However, Rean quickly noticed something, telling everyone else, ”Itʼs not that the blood is concentrated there. Something in the center of that whirlpool is consuming the blood completely. As for what it is, I donʼt know.”

Roan then looked at the blood around the island before saying, ”At this rate, itʼll take no more than a few tens of minutes for all the demon beast blood to disappear. It really is gathering the blood at an insane speed.”

Kentucky couldnʼt help but comment, ”I can feel some connection to that whirlpool.”

Gulan, Celis, and Red nodded in agreement when they heard that. ”The same for us. Itʼs as if the whirlpool is calling us.”

Rean and Roan couldnʼt feel anything, though. ”Well, this is the demon beastsʼ Bestial Sacred Ground, after all. It should have this name for a reason.”

Roan then decided to leave the place. ”We can come back later to see what happened. Letʼs head back to where Duran and Frin are waiting.”

Everyone agreed with that, and they soon left the area.

Back where the protection formation covering the demon was, Duran and Frin had a serious expression. They could already see the protection formation wavering as its energy was being absorbed nonstop. ʼAny second now.ʼ

Reanʼs group arrived not long after and could tell that the formation was on the verge of breaking apart because of the lack of Spiritual Energy.

Duran then looked at Reanʼs group before warning them, ”You guys, stay further away from us. Donʼt blame us if youʼre caught in the aftermath of this battle.”

Rean and the others immediately nodded and created some distance. They saw how crazy the battle before was, where the shockwaves were enough to send them flying. They didnʼt need to experience that again.

However, just as the protection formation was about to run out of energy, Reanʼs Energy Transfer Formations stopped working. ”What?!”

Everyone was taken aback, including the demon inside the chamber. Rean, on the other hand, understood what happened. ”The Formation Core doesnʼt need more Spiritual Energy. It has absorbed everything necessary.”

As soon as Rean said those words...

*Pin!*

[Congratulations, Hosts! You have fully activated the World Beast Formation.]

[Mission Reward: 30000 Destiny Points]

Obviously, that wasnʼt Sister Orb talking. Instead, it was the system itself. ʼSure enough, that thing in the building was the real World Beast Formation.ʼ

The earth began to tremble even more. Thereʼs no doubt that the Blood Lake and the Island were responsible for it. However, they didnʼt have time for it now. Thatʼs because they still had to deal with the demon first. ”Itʼs fine! Start attacking the chamberʼs protection formation.”

Everyone then looked at it and could see how frail the protection formation was. Without a doubt, the Spiritual Energy used by the World Beast Formation had almost siphoned all of the protection formationʼs energy.

”Good!” Duran didnʼt waste time as he began to smash the formation with his skills.

”On it!” Frin, obviously, did the same.

*Boom, boom, boom...*

*Rumble, rumble, rumble...*

Sounds of explosions resounded out of the area as they attacked while the earth continued to tremble nonstop because of the World Beast Formation.

The demon could only watch as his final Spirit Stones, which were almost devoid of energy, get shattered away.

*Crack, crack, crack...*

*Shatter!*

As if a window was broken apart, the protection formation of the chamber disappeared. Duran and Frin didnʼt waste time and entered it straight away...or so they tried to.

*Boom!*

Suddenly, an explosion came from inside the chamber itself, forcing Frin and Duran out once again. The demon once again came out! However, all the remaining Stage Nine Demon Beast Souls in his chamber were floating around his body. They provided the demon with the energy necessary to keep his body intact outside the glass container.

”Good, good! You really forced this Demon Spirit to come out once again. Hahahaha! Look at what youʼve done! Countless years of effort for what? For me to simply die in the end. With the World Beast Formation back to normal, thereʼs no way I can take control over it anymore in my state. However, since Iʼm going down, I might as well bring you all with me.”

Soon after that, the power contained in the Stage Nine Demon Beast Souls began to rush into the demon nonstop.

Duran and Frin couldnʼt help but feel a chill on their backs as they saw this. ʼNot good!ʼ

The two quickly rushed to where Reanʼs group was and enveloped them with their Spiritual Energy. They shot into the distance right after, trying to stay as far as possible from the demon. Unfortunately, they couldnʼt run for more than a few steps before their bodies were locked in place. Surprisingly, it was not just them, but everything around the demon ended up like that.

Rean and Roan immediately recognized the power locking them down. ʼSpatial Power! This demon can use spatial powers without a need for formations!ʼ
