Death… And Me

Chapter 2645  Anything Else?

”And...” Rean continued, ”How exactly do we do that?”

”Actually, it is quite simple,” Lila spoke as she raised her paw. ”Gather the Chaos Laws like you normally do.” Immediately, Chaos Laws gathered around even though there was very little concentration around.

”Wait!” Kentucky quickly stopped them there. ”We are literally changing our Demon Cores and Dantians. Isnʼt there any risk? For example, would we be powerless if we leave this Wonderland in the future, just like the Loporrits?”

”Who is powerless?” Loriti got angry, and so did the other Loporrits. Kentucky saw that and took a step back. ”Ahem... I mean, not powerless... Just... Yes, just small cultivation. You see, cultivation is extremely important outside.”

Roan had the same concern as Kentucky. ”He is right. Chief Lotiri, you mentioned it before. You said you are truly just a Nascent Soul Realm Loporrit. Would this merge with the Chaos Laws and Energy cause our cultivations to stagnate or something like that?”

Lotiri shook his head. ”No. The reason we donʼt cultivate further is actually pretty simple; we donʼt need it. Cultivating Chaos Laws already gives us an unlimited lifespan, just like the Space-Time Realm and above experts from the outside. Do you think we would get any stronger than we are through the laws of our world, your so-called Chaos Laws?”

Roan and the others obviously didnʼt think it. Lotiri seemed to be as strong as Hyeoumu... or so it looked like, at least. If he wanted to be stronger than that through normal cultivation, he would have to surpass the level of a normal Semi-Celestial at the very least. That indeed seemed like a wasted effort. They already have all the power they need.

”So thatʼs how it is,” Roan accepted it. ”Thank you for the explanation.”

Lotiri faintly smiled. ”Polite does it.”

Lila continued from there. ”Alright, now that your questions and fear have been cleared, gather the Chaos Laws like Iʼm doing.”

The twinsʼ group didnʼt find it difficult. They were already able to do this even before aligning their bodies with the laws of the world. Lola was the one to show them how to do it, and they could do it even better now that the alignment was complete. Quickly, the Chaos Laws gathered around their group, although it didnʼt look as easy as Lila.

”Thatʼs it,” Lila nodded. ”Now, open your meridians or whatever Demon Beasts and Plants use to circulate your cultivation energy. Let the Chaos Laws flow through them like it was an energy instead. Here is a little tip, even though you canʼt feel it, every bit of Chaos Laws is accompanied by Chaos Energy.”

”I can,” Celis mentioned. With his first sublaw, sense, he was able to detect those tiny bits of Chaos Energy every time they gathered Chaos Laws. Itʼs just that it was truly too little. He also told the twins about it. Itʼs just that this information didnʼt have much use for their group back then.

Lila was happy to hear that. ”Thatʼs even better. It is through this almost inexistent amount of Chaos Energy that you will drive the Chaos Laws through your meridians. It is a type of energy, the most primordial one, so it should be possible.”

The group followed Lilaʼs explanation and let the Chaos Laws pass through their meridians... or roots, in Celisʼs case. Seeing that, Lila explained the next part. ”Now, inside your Energy Pools, let the Chaos Laws mix with whatever energy you have there. Donʼt worry; you will feel discomfort, but thatʼs just your Dantians and Cores going through the process. Just give it a few minutes.”

The discomfort was indeed there, and the twinsʼ group could feel the merging happening. Still, they didnʼt feel their Dantians and Cores changing at all. It was just the energy they had in there that was getting mixed, but it would be gone once they used it, so they got a little puzzled... for a few moments.

”I see...” Rean was the first one to understand. ”You have to use the Divine Origin Energy to wash the Foundation Pillars.” The Foundation Pillar were those the twins acquired when they first entered the Foundation Establishment Realm. The Foundation Pillars of Rean and Roanʼs Dantians seemed to absorb the Chaos Laws and Divine Energy without any issues, transforming little by little.

For Celis and Kentucky, it was different, though. After all, Demon Beasts and Plants donʼt create Foundation Pillars. They all go through several stages of compressed energy up to Stage Ten. Only then do they join the same cultivation path as all the other races at the Transition Realm and beyond.

That only made it easier for them. Their Cores were a lot simpler than Dantians, so the merging went even more smoothly.

However, both Dantians and Cores reached the same barrier after a certain amount of time had passed. Neither of them seemed to be able to merge any more Chaos Laws. ”There seems to be a limit,” Roan commented after giving up continuing.

Rean and the others also stopped the process, having reached the same limit. ”Is that how it is done?”

Lila nodded. ”Yes, thatʼs basically it. If you wish to merge more Chaos Laws and Energy to your Dantians and Cores, you will need a higher concentration of both. Thatʼs definitely impossible in our Burrow.”

”I see...” Roan understood why they also called it cultivation. There seemed to be different levels of merging, just like normal cultivation realms. ”It was way easier than I thought.”

”Of course, you are nowhere close to doing what Lotir and the rest of us can. You will need to train and get used to it,” Lila explained. ”Also, donʼt expect to be the only ones to know about it. You said it yourself. It is very easy. The other groups that came with you will soon or later figure it out if they havenʼt already.”

”Some already have,” the Blue-Furred Loporrit, Lavi, mentioned. ”Quite a few of them seemed to have information about our world beforehand, especially those you call ʼSemi-Celestialsʼ or whatever.”

Lila smiled. ”So you see? This is nothing special. Iʼm only giving you a little helping hand. Otherwise, my husband here would complain like there is no tomorrow if I did anything more than that.”

”Hmph!” Loriti snorted. ”Alright, now you can do whatever you want with this knowledge. Is there anything else?
