Death… And Me

Chapter 3100  Lisan Aftermath

[Divergence identified. Initializing pairing of cultivations.]

Before the twins could ask anything, the system activated again and aimed at Kentuckyʼs Core. His cultivation dropped drastically after that.

Late Divinity Realm, Middle Divinity Realm, Early Divinity Realm...

Space-Time Realm...

Elemental Space Realm...

Space Bending Realm...

Kentucky, obviously, was scared out of his mind.”What the hell?! Rean, Roan, what are you doing?”

Roan looked at Rean, who had the same idea as him. Kentuckyʼs Soul Connection with the twins still existed. And through this connection, one part could never have a cultivation higher than the other. Their cultivations were always shared and parallel.

The twinsʼ cultivations obviously couldnʼt go up since they were not at the higher realms yet. Kentucky, on the other hand, could lose his cultivation. he had been to the lower levels of cultivation before, after all.

”Itʼs our connection, Kentucky. You canʼt have a cultivation higher than ours. The only difference is that you wonʼt need to cultivate to recover your cultivation level. As long as Roan and I make our breakthroughs, your core will automatically return to that level,” Rean explained.

It wasnʼt like Kentuckyʼs cultivation suddenly disappeared, after all. It was still there, but because of the systemʼs connection, Kentucky couldnʼt access it. ”Oh, so thatʼs what it is about...”

”You accepted it quite easily. Iʼm impressed.” Rean commended Kentucky.

”Like hell I am!” Too bad it only lasted a second. ”What is this place? First of all, I thought you were dead to the point that even your souls were lost!”

Finally, Kentuckyʼs cultivation stopped dropping, stabilizing at the same Nascent Soul Realm Middle Stage. Well, Kentucky was a Demon Beast, so he actually stopped at Stage Six.

[Cultivation Divergence Stabilized. Connection Reestablished. Share of absorption of cultivation energy is now available.]

Rean took the chance to use his Spiritual Sense to give a full description of what happened ever since they woke up in this new place. He went about how they found Hex saved then, just to bring them to the Werdlem Empire. After that, he talked about the Soul Gem System changing into the Celestial Soul System. Finally, he told Kentucky of the various adventures they had until the day they paid for ʼThe Callʼ option.

Kentucky didnʼt feel the least bit happy, obviously. ”Fuck! And because of this Call shit, I was brought to this place? Werdlem Empire? This thing was supposed to have disappeared a long time ago. Also, Soul Gem was behind this weird move? Just what is he even trying to achieve?”

Rean shrugged. ”Damned I would be if I knew. The system got us involved in that Charybdis Story, but as you can imagine, neither Roan nor I intend to go after any of those beasts. We are talking about journeying through many Universes, after all. We just want to get the hell out of here.”

Roan allowed Rean to explain everything to Kentucky. Then, he began to ask questions of his own. ”Alright, enough of us. Why couldnʼt it be Celis? He could at least help us with cultivation... Whatever. Since it is the chicken, it is better than nothing. Or perhaps it is worse. No, it is definitely worse now.”

Kentuckyʼs mouth twitched, now back to his humanoid form. Even as a Divine Demon Beast, Kentucky at least didnʼt lose his ability to change forms. ”What? Are you unhappy? So am I, so welcome to the club!”

Roan ignored that and continued. ”What happened to Lisan after we left? We did what we could to kill that guy, but we were supposed to have died as well, so we donʼt know the outcome.”

Even though Kentucky wasnʼt in the mood to talk about it, he knew that the twins would be worried about their families. ”Well, it went like this...”

After the twins managed to save the Universe, the Garisan Universe truly couldnʼt spend more resources just to try to conquer them. They had almost lost more than one entire army and many Semi-Celestials. Even if Garisan put together another army and came to finish conquering the Lisan Universe, it simply wouldnʼt be worth it anymore.

Besides, the Lisan Universe still had the various Werdlem Treasures, so there was a good chance that the next armies they sent inside would also be defeated. Only if Garisan truly gathered the rest of its force and sent all to attack at once would they guarantee Lisanʼs defeat. To do that, they would also have to take their forces from key points in their own territories. That meant they would make themselves vulnerable to other forces of the Great Void. How could they do such a thing just so they could acquire a single Chaos Origin Source? It wasnʼt worth it. It wasnʼt worth the risk at all!

So, just as Soul Gem had predicted, their last victory had forced the Garisan Empire into the negotiation table. Rean couldnʼt help but ask. ”I see... so our plan worked in the end. How about the negotiation? Was it Soul Gem and the others?”

Kentucky nodded. ”Yes. However, it also included the Vruve Organization.”

Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes. Sure enough, the Vruve wouldnʼt stay out of it. They were the ones who wanted the Chaos Origin Source first, after all.

”I would like to say they were shameless, but most cultivators wouldnʼt care about it in the face of huge benefits,” Rean commented. ”Besides, their sudden appearance in the negotiation table might actually have been a good thing.”

Kentucky was surprised to hear that. ”Yes! Thatʼs exactly what happened. Their presence did indeed increase our stakes at the negotiation table.”

The Vruves intended to wait for the Lisan Universe to reach the brink of destruction before coming out to rip the benefits. Sure, they sent their forces to help during the final battle, but it wasnʼt truly everyone they had. However, they never expected the victory, and that was because of the twins and the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. They could simply transfer entire arms to anywhere in the Universe in a matter of seconds. So, whether the Vruves wanted it or not, they had to take the Lisan Universeʼs side in that negotiation. And their addition to the table made the Lisan Universe stronger to make their own demands.
