Death… And Me

Chapter 3825: No Time to React

*Cough, cough, cough...*

The twins’ group continued to cough out blue colored blood, even though the effects of Rokerfa’s Domain disappeared.

”Don’t stop!” Roan told Kentucky. ”We don’t know if they can make their way inside or not. That woman most likely just didn’t expect we could get past the barrier, that’s all.”

[It was the key. The system registered your auras, which allowed you to get through the barrier. She probably doesn’t have this capability.] Sister Orb reassured them, though.

Of course, better to be safe than sorry, so Kentucky continued flying forward while he healed himself. The twins did the same thing on Kentucky’s back.

Still, Rean looked at his blood while his body recovered. ”Just what was that Domain about? It was destroying our bodies, and even now, my Instant Recovery is having a hard time outpacing the destructive power.”

Roan shook his head in response. ”I can still feel the Celestial Laws in this blue energy, although I don’t know which Law it is. However, even before she used her Celestial Laws, this blue energy was already pretty powerful. It is not Divine Energy, it is not poison, it is something else, something we haven’t encountered before.”

Rean sent some of that blue colored blood inside the Dimensional Realm. ’Tanxan, Zangeshu, you two take this blood and examine it. If we can understand the principle behind that woman’s blue energy, we might have a better chance next time.’

’Understood!’ Tanxan and Zangeshu nodded. They had plenty of equipment there, even if they weren’t exactly dedicated to this kind of operation.

Kentucky looked forward and couldn’t help but get nervous. ”That red and black mass ahead that looks like a black hole is getting close. Do I throw myself inside?”

[What I can say for sure is that the core is inside that thing. Unless someone has a better idea, you can only give it a try.]

Celis suddenly commented from inside the Dimensional Realm. ’Aren’t we forgetting something important? How did that woman find you guys outside? Sister Orb was watching for any formations, and it should have been fine. Yet, the old woman appeared in the last moment and almost killed you guys.’

Roan was sure of one thing, though. ’The main issue was that she didn’t really want to kill us. She wanted to capture us and was very confident she could do so. If she wanted to kill us, we would have seen the Red Color of Killing Intent.’

’That still doesn’t answer my question,’ Celis insisted. ’We will have to leave this place at some point, so wouldn’t we be caught straight away at that point?’

Rean pondered a bit. ’The way those blue flowers materialized... that was probably connected to the woman’s Domain. It is similar to our Intent Tracking. Since it isn’t a formation or anything like that, we couldn’t find her.’

’We can think about that later,’ Kentucky spoke, his body approaching the enormous red black hole. Now that he was close, he couldn’t even be considered a grain of sand in front of it. Its size truly had tens of thousands of kilometers at the very least.

The red light was intense, mixed with black color, but neither Rean nor Roan could feel any elements from that thing.

”Let’s give it a try.”

Rean floated in front and extended his hand forward. Roan and Kentucky did the same, and they held each other, just in case a teleportation took place. Finally, Rean touched the Red and Black mass.

*Glu, glu, glu, glu...*

The surface seemed to ripple a little, as if Rean was touching the surface of a lake. Rean pulled his hand back, and there was nothing wrong with it. ”It’s a very strange feeling. My Divine Sense and even my Sky Energy were completely nullified inside. It felt like I was a mortal for a second...”

Roan and Kentucky decided to try it as well, and their hand and wing passed through, just for them to pull out a moment later. ”Same thing here...”

’What about laws? And the circulation of energy inside your own bodies? Was everything blocked?’ Foliana couldn’t help but ask from within the Dimensional Realm.

Foliana’s words finally made Rean understand. ”Shit! I know what this thing is! It is the Corrupted System’s Dimensional Realm!”

Everyone looked at Rean, the realization striking them. ”No wonder...”

Indeed. Just like the twins had their Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm, that Corrupted System had its own Dimensional Realm. It was the same for everyone who could make their own Pocket Dimensional Realms. Once inside, you were constrained by the owner’s rules. Cultivation doesn’t matter, laws don’t matter, nothing matters. Since the twins’ Soul Gem Dimensional Realm was left behind in the Lisan Universe, it is not surprising that the Corrupted System’s Dimensional Realm remained after its owner died.

That said, the rules inside that place probably restrained all kinds of powers. Once there, you would be as good as a mortal, nothing else. Well, of course, the twins’ group’s Celestial Bodies were still very powerful in simple raw strength, so at least that was something.

”What do we do? Do we enter?” They all wondered.

*Drummmmm!*

Suddenly, a powerful pressure washed over the twins’ group. They quickly looked behind and saw that the Red Barrier began to tear apart at a specific point. The Red Black Hole seemed to react to it, and a red energy quickly rushed to the area where the Red Barrier was being broken.

It tried to repair the damage, but the power breaking it was bigger than what the Corrupted System’s Energy could fix. Still, it was only at that single point. The cracks in the barrier didn’t have the chance to spread as the corrupted system was able to heal the cracks once they got away from the epicenter.

Rean, Roan, and Kentucky immediately felt it. In fact, they had felt it before, back behind the Fabric of Space. ”Shit! It’s Kunprio!”

By now, they knew the Universe Owner’s Name, thanks to Xenfal’s ID.

*Bang!*

The Red barrier finally broke, and the Fireball-like Spirit passed through as the world trembled around him. Kunprio looked ahead, seeing the twins’ group for a split second. Too bad, though. He didn’t have the time to react.

*Zush, zush, zush!*

Without thinking twice, Rean, Roan, and Kentucky threw themselves inside the Corrupted System’s Dimensional Realm!
