Death… And Me

Chapter 2328 Reaching the Bottom

Even though Rean cursed Roan, he knew he was right. He was moving tens of times faster than he usually did. Not that he didnʼt want to move faster, but because it had a great risk of engaging against a normal Flash Beast if he moved too fast. Yet, this small Flash Beast was even faster the the normal Big Flash Beasts themselves.

However, Rean didnʼt really believe they had all that power stored inside themselves. Sure, it might be something similar to a Dantian, but if that was the case, then these small things were also supposed to be extremely strong. It was then that he perceived something. ʼThe fragments of Convergency Crystal...ʼ

Rean couldnʼt make out the surroundings due to the speed, but he could see several specs of colored energy coming from the sides and entering the small Flash Beast. There was only one thing that could have this type of energy, and it was the Fragments of Convergency Crystal all over the place. Well... there were also the big Flash Beasts, but they couldnʼt even keep up to the speed of this small one, so Rean discarded this possibility.

Roan and the others eventually noticed the same thing and understood where the energy of the small Flash Beast was coming from. It was a type of energy that only these small Flash Beasts and probably the big ones could use.

However, a problem quickly appeared. Reanʼs Divine Energy began to reach rock bottom. First of all, he was already traveling with just 10% of his Divine Energy and no Divine Origin Energy. Now that he had to use it to protect his body, it was being quickly used. In just an hour, Rean was already at the end of his reserves.

*Grab!*

It was then that another hand grabbed Reanʼs hand, which was holding the small Flash Beast. He looked to his side and quickly saw Roan there. Roan obviously appeared outside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm on the side of Rean and the small Flah Beast, already extending his hand. His plan was simple: he would exchange places with Rean. Rean would then return to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and would recover.

Suddenly, Reanʼs face looked away from Roan as he spoke in an embarrassed tone. ʼTo think you would be straightforward. I say... even if you want to betray Calina with me, you should at least ask my permission. Who said I liked you?ʼ

Several veins instantly appeared on Roanʼs head. He tried to use his other hand to give Rean a punch, but Rean was already gone by the time he reacted. All he could hear was Rean laugh from inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. ʼHahahaha! Thatʼs what you get for ignoring otherʼs pain!ʼ

Roan gritted his teeth and took quite some time to calm down. Indeed, there was only one existence in this world that could make him feel such fury. However, he was now the one who was hitting the walls every time the small Flash Beasts tried to shake away, so he couldnʼt care about Rean at the moment. He concentrated on his Starlight Body and Divine Energy, creating a protection barrier to reduce just enough damage and not spend too much energy.

Fortunately, Roan began to understand how that small Flash Beast moved. He quickly adapted to its movements, making it miss the walls more and more. At some point, that small Flash Beast completely gave up trying to shake him. It simply used all the energy it gathered from the sides to fly down as fast as it could.

After a single day, Roan believed he had traveled enough to make up for an entire month of travel at their original speed. Yet, they still havenʼt reached the bottom of the Continental Barrier. Roan had also noticed how he had passed by literally hundreds of normal Flash Beasts! A single one was considered a calamity to a continent without a Divinity Realm expert. Yet, the Continental Barrier had so many!

Not to mention that this is only the place where they are passing by. What about the extension of all continental barriers spread across the Realm of Gods? Perhaps there are tens of millions or even billions of Flash Beasts down here! Of course, Roan also understood that they were all trapped due to that weird flexible barrier above.

Another week passed, and the small Flash Beast continued to travel further down the earth. By now, Roan was certain that he had already crossed a distance big enough to traverse several continents. But then again, the Realm of Gods had countless continents. If one thought about it, the distance he traveled wasnʼt anything special. Nonetheless... ʼthis shit sure is deep.ʼ

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, everyone has already lost interest in looking outside. They simply told Sister Orb that if anything happened, she should call them.

Just like that, Rean and Roan swapped positions when one of them got tired. For over two months, that small Flash Beast traveled nonstop. However, it was bound to reach an end at some point, and that happened another half a month later.

*Kabrum!*

The sound of thunder suddenly echoed everywhere as a small Flash Beast suddenly stopped in its tracks. Rean, who was the one holding it now, was almost thrown off as it had been a long time since the small Flash Beast tried to shake him off. Yet, he quickly noticed that after the small Flash Beast stopped, it began to grow weak in his hand.

Specs of colored light energy flew through the gaps of his fingers. Not long after, the small Flash Beast completely disappeared. ”This...”

However, it didnʼt take long for Rean to understand why. ”I see...” He looked around and noticed there were no more Fragments of Convergency Crystals on the walls. Without them to feed the small Flash Beast, it simply ran out of energy and disappeared.

*Zush, zush, zush!*

Kentucky, Roan, and Luan quickly appeared on Reanʼs side as they were warned by Sister Orb. They all did the same thing and looked down. For the first time since they started their descent, they were stepping on solid ground.
