Death… And Me

Chapter 2588  A Big Problem

So, as soon as Rean entered the Dragon Race, he also disappeared, entering the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Of course, the Dimensional Realmʼs entrance was there, and the experts of the Dragon Racew watching could feel it with their Divine Senses and Natural Spatial Sense. They simply ignored it and continued doing their own things.

Inside the Dimensional Realm, Rean reached the small Hexagon Cube that looked like Hex, although much smaller. The others also got curious, so even Celis appeared to take a look. After all, Hexʼs real purpose was that impacting.

ʼHey, Hex, long time, uh?ʼ Rean started with an easy tone. ʼI thought it would be us who would contact you first. I didnʼt expect you to contact us instead. How have you been?ʼ

Roan glanced at Rean, unhappy with all the bullshit. Well, Rean simply ignored his face.

Hexʼs answer soon echoed in the minds of everyone who had their Divine Senses in the communication hexagon cube. ʼLetʼs drop the pleasantries. Iʼm just contacting you to tell you that another Universe has detected Lisan Universeʼs location. It shouldnʼt take long before visitors from outside to come pay a visit.ʼ

ʼWhat?!ʼ Everyone jumped back with that information. ʼHow?! They all thought our Universe had disappeared because of the Extinction Sphere! Why would they find this place after so long?ʼ

ʼBecause I sent a signal out, of course,ʼ Hex didnʼt lie at all. ʼThere are a few things that I am not able to achieve in this Universe. I need the original technology of the Lingan Universe or a similarly advanced Universe.ʼ

Roan found it strange. ʼYou were the one who said you couldnʼt contact the outside world since you would run the risk of being wiped out instead.ʼ

ʼI did, and this risk still exists,ʼ Hex agreed with Roan. ʼBut I truly have reached a limit here. You should know it better than anyone else. Cultivators will seek pretty much any possible method to advance, many times regardless of what problems it might cause to those around them. Some even sacrifice others in order to achieve that. Iʼm not different. I want to evolve, so I had to do it.ʼ

ʼYou could have asked for my help,ʼ Rean couldnʼt help but complain. ʼIʼm also very versed in Circuitry Formations, and I dare say I might have found a solution to whatever technological problem you have at the moment.ʼ

ʼHa!ʼ Hex found it funny, though. ʼThis beacon that I use as a vessel was at the pinacle of the technology of the Lingan Universe when it was create. Iʼve seen the communication system in the Realm of Gods. Iʼm sorry to tell you this, but you are just too far away from doing anything remotely close to the technology used in my beaconʼs creation.ʼ

Celis stopped them there. ʼEnough of this. Whether Rean could help him or not matters no more. The fact is that the Universe might be at risk.ʼ

Hex agreed with Celis there. ʼThe tree is right. Anyway, back then, you guys kept your promise and set me free, so I thought I owed you at least this little bit. Thatʼs why I am contacting you to tell you this information. Whatever you do with it, thatʼs your problem. Iʼm leaving now, until some other day.ʼ

ʼHex, wait!ʼ Rean tried to continue the conversation. However, Hex had already cut the connection.

[Forget it. The signal coming from outside completely disappeared. You can use this device to try to contact Hex, and he will receive the signal. However, if he doesnʼt want to, he wonʼt answer. Most likely, he will just ignore the call altogether, not even looking at the messages.] Sister Orb explained.

Reanʼs face was contorted, and even Roan had an ugly expression. ”This fucking Destiny Attraction Ability. Of course, it would cause some bullshit like that!” Rean complained out loud.

Roan nodded. ”No wonder I thought everything was going too well recently. We got a lot of Fragments, used the Circuitry Teleport Formation and did not fall into any dangerous territory, found our own Stars and broke through in our Body Cultivation. After so many ups, this shit system sure had to bring us down with a heavy punch.”

Rean and Roan then looked at Sister Orb, much to her surprise. [Hey, donʼt look at me! I donʼt control the Destiny Attraction Feature of the system, okay?]

”Sigh...” Rean could only resign to fate. ”Whatever. First of all, the Universe is already at risk of disappearing, so what is a little extra danger. Whoever comes from outside, thatʼs gonna be something for the powers of our Universe to resolve.”

Luan had to ask. ”So... are you going to warn everyone? But if you do... I think even Gragatouʼs name wonʼt stop others from seeking you two, Father, Uncle...”

Roan immediately changed his mind. ”We heard nothing, we know nothing, this conversation never happened. End of story.”

Rean obviously didnʼt like it. ”How can you say that? Are you going to let everyone be caught by surprise? What if this causes even more trouble?”

”Hmph!” Roan didnʼt care. ”First of all, we donʼt even know how long it will take for some to get here. Perhaps by the time they appeared, we would have already saved the Universe, or it would have collapsed completely.”

[Ah! Hex has just sent another message and cut the signal once again. He apologized for forgetting to mention something. He said that according to the information available in his Beacon Vessel, the new friends should be here in the next ten years at most, perhaps not even five, depending on how advanced their traveling methods are.]

”&$#@*&%&#*!!!!!” Roan immediately cursed Hex to no end.

”See?!” Rean quickly talked back. ”We must warn everyone!”

”And what do you think everyone will do once we put this piece of information out?” Roan retorted.

”Canʼt we simply provide this information anonymously?” Kentucky asked.

Rean and Roan shook their heads. ”Who would believe in such a thing if it came from an anonymous source? Not even a child would believe it, let alone the top powers. This information has to have some backing. Even if we use the communication system to spread it, someone with real power has to stand up for it in the open.”

That... was a big problem.
