Death… And Me

Chapter 3345: Another Book

”We just entered it, and we didnʼt even move. Yet, we are already over a million kilometers away?” Rean was quite surprised. Even Spatial Gate didnʼt work like that if you didnʼt move inside at all.

Roan turned back and could see the exit of this space as a huge amount of white fog kept rushing out through there. ”Even though there is a lot of fog, it shouldnʼt be enough to converge the entire region. Seems like there are other exits like this one in other places.” ”Should we go back?” Rean asked, looking at the same exit. With the systemʼs help, they could walk back if they wished to. It was all thanks to the innate ability of the Abyssal Soul.

”Since we are already here, we might as well check further ahead. It is very likely that this so- called Mist Library is inside one of those Abyssal Spaces,” Roan commented, remembering Abbyʼs explanation regarding his innate ability.

The abyssal path not only allowed the Abyssal Beasts to travel between different places and even Universes, but they also allowed for the Abyssal Spaces to exit. Such space could only be accessed through the Abyssal Paths, so only Abyssal Beasts could use them. Well, at least that was the case countless years ago.

”Hum?” Reanʼs eyes moved, and he felt a few particles passing by his body. Divine Sense was still restricted, but not completely. Rean could spread it a few centimeters away from his body now. Thatʼs how he noticed those particles. ”This...”

Using his Divine Energy to gather those particles, Rean was able to get a grain worth of them, narrowing his eyes. ”Holy mommy... It is one of my puppets.”

Rifindio and Roan looked at it. ”This grain of sand is your puppet?”

”It was...” Rean commented. How could he not recognize the material he used in his own creations? Those puppets were made by himself, and even though they were simple, the alloy used for some of their parts was Reanʼs original creation. ”What could have broken them down to the extent where only their particles remained? I almost didnʼt notice them.”

[What else?] Sister Orbʼs voice echoed. [It is the Abyssal Path, obviously. You might not be able to feel it because the system is protecting you. However, since Iʼm attached to the system, I can feel it. The space around you has such a powerful grinding... smashing... disintegrating... I donʼt even know how to put it in words. In any case, the force around is so strong that I doubt anyone other than Kentucky back when he was in the Divinity Realm would have the necessary defense to barely resist it.]

Kentucky swallowed hard. He came out of the Celestial Soul Dimension Realm after the twins already entered this place. If the system hadnʼt protected him at that moment, perhaps he would be just like those particles now. He is much strong than he was back then in the Void Tempering Realm, but he is still nowhere near his power and defense compared to his lost Divinity Realm. ”Next time, warn me before I do such an idiotic thing like coming out in this danger zone...”

The twins and Rifindio were still surprised. ”No wonder it was said no one could use the Abyssal Paths other than the Abyssal Beasts themselves...”

Still, Rean and Roan quickly recovered, and they began to fly forward. ”Anyway, we canʼt dwell here forever. Kentucky, can you feel it?”

Kentucky nodded. ”Starlight Energy... pure... and a lot of it. It is all flowing outside. No doubt this is what is giving birth to all those Starlight Crystals.”

”Exactly,” The twins were excited. There might truly be a source they can use on the other side. ”Letʼs go. We need to check it out.”

Meanwhile, somewhere else in the white fog region, a group of cultivators stumbled on what seemed to be a weird tree. Like all the other groups, they were also brought here to investigate the epicenter of the White Fog Phenomenon. No one had paid attention to this tree before. So what if it had a weird appearance? There were countless plant-like forms in the Divine Realm that were even weirder than this one.

Yet, this group stopped here not to investigate it but because they were also collecting Starlight Crystals. There were a few near the tree, so they got close to collect them. It was at this moment that the cultivator furthest ahead screamed.

*Argh!*

In front of his friends, his body was pulverized in less than a second, and even his soul didnʼt have time to escape. Before anyone could do anything, the guy was already dead. Naturally, his companions shot back at full speed, afraid of being caught by the same trap. ”What the hell was that?”

”Juoren was in the Elemental Space Realm Initial Stage. How could something destroy him that fast?”

”Nando, your grandfather is in the Space-Time Realm, right? Can he do something similar to what happened to Juoren?”

Nando shook his head. ”As if! Grampa is indeed strong, but he definitely couldnʼt do such a thing that fast.”

”Who cares? Letʼs get out of here!”

”No!” The leader of their group stopped everyone. ”This is our opportunity. This might be the only clue leading to the Mist Library everyone seems to be looking for. Quickly contact the headquarters. If this is the real deal, we are in for a very, very big reward.”

It only took a few minutes, and the place was already crowded with experts from the various powers of Qediya, including Herbert and his Flintstone Clan.

Someone threw a piece of divine metal forward where that cultivator had died, and everyone observed. Sure enough, just like that cultivator, the divine metal was pulverized to the point only its particles remained, quickly being scattered away. ”This is kinda scary...” The one who threw the stone spoke.

At this moment, an old man came forward. His name was Xesht, Xesht Qediya, a member of the Qediya Royal Family. ”Get out of the way. I will open the path.” Following that, a tablet with the image of a book letting out mist appeared on his hands.
