Death… and me

Chapter 1534 - Not the only reason



Chapter 1534 – Not the only reason

As mentioned before, the entire Upside Down World was only 1341 kilometers long. Considering that Himatikia was above the Transition Realm and could fly, it obviously didn’t take long for them to arrive at the purging organization’s headquarters.

Celis and the twins looked far ahead and noticed that the area around them was increasing in size. So far, this tube-like world was only twenty kilometers in diameter if one moved sideways until one reached the same point again. However, the twins could tell by looking around that it had already increased to at least twenty-five, not to mention that it was getting bigger the farther they went.

Suddenly, Celis and the twins noticed something that looked like a giant tower in the distance. By far, that was the biggest building they saw in this Upside Down World. However, it wasn’t its size that really caught their attention. Instead, it was the fact that it looked to be completely white. “Isn’t that the white powder?”

Everyone who was caught by the white powder and became a statue would recognize it, so Himatikia wasn’t surprised the twins recognized it as well. “It does look like it, doesn’t it? However, even though it seems to be made of white powder, the tower doesn’t have the power to transform anyone into a statue. Also, it’s very solid, unlike the white powder from outside.”

Rean and Roan nodded in response. “That makes sense. If it was made only of the white powder, that tower would have fallen a long time ago. However, it goes straight from the ground on one side to the ground on the other side.”

Rean was right. By now, the tube-like path stretched a total of 42 kilometers to the sides for a full round, and it seemed to be the biggest area. Past the tower, the tube’s diameter started to decrease once again. Most likely, it would return to the same 20 kilometers from before.

As for the tower itself, it was 21 kilometers tall… or perhaps it wasn’t correct to call it ‘tall.’ After all, it had two bases connected to the ground on both sides. One must not forget that the gravity in this tube-like world was the same on all sides. That meant one could stay standing upside down on the other side, or so it looked like for those seeing it from the other side. The tower simply stretched from one ground to the other.

Celis couldn’t help but say after a while, “Doesn’t it look like this tower is a bone stuck in a throat?”

The twins had to admit Celis was right. The tube world was the throat, and the tower was the bone stuck on both sides. It was definitely a very good description of the view ahead.

Himatikia couldn’t help but laugh when she heard that. “Hahaha! A bone stuck in the throat? That’s definitely the first time I’ve heard that comparison. Indeed, it truly looks like that. Hahaha!”

However, it looked like that because they were still far away. The closer they got, the bigger the tower looked. By the time Himatikia landed on one of the tower’s ends, the twins and Celis could tell that the tower’s circumference was at least two kilometers wide. “This is kind of a wasteful construction for a world like this, no? Just how long did it take for your purging organization to build it?”

Himatikia shook her head, saying, “I have no idea. As far as I can remember, this tower was already here. That’s already considering I’m over a thousand years old.”

The twins and Celis nodded after hearing that. Since she didn’t know, it made no sense to insist on the question.

“Welcome back, Elder Himatikia.” As soon as she approached the gates, the guards in front paid their respects. “Grand Elder Levid left a message saying that you should bring the new guests straight to him once you arrived.”

Himatikia nodded in response. “Very well.”

The guards then opened the gates and let her pass with the twins and Celis. Inside, the elders that had accompanied Himatikia bade their farewells, leaving for their own rooms.

Himatikia didn’t mind it and simply brought the twins over. They passed by several floors with their own facilities. The tower had everything the twins could think of. Side occupations, cultivation formations, even resting places for those who wanted to do nothing more than relax.

Eventually, on the 113th floor, Himatikia made a turn into one of the corridors and headed towards a room in the end. She then knocked on the door and waited, saying, “This is Grand Elder Levid’s room.”

The twins and Celis nodded in response as they waited.

“Come in.” It didn’t take long for Levid to call them inside, though.

Just like the rest of the tower, the room inside was enormous. Let alone that the doors would probably lead to similar size places. Nevertheless, the twins were more interested in the old man in front of them.

“So those are the twins you talked about, huh?” Levid asked with a smile.

The twins tried to sense his cultivation but couldn’t feel it with their Divine Senses. Fortunately, Levid also used his Divine Sense to feel the twins. That allowed Rean’s Divine Sense bending skill to catch its power and make them understand where Levid stood. ‘Space Bending Realm. That’s a lot lower than we expected.’

Then again, they were in a closed world, so it was normal for the strongest experts to not be as strong as the ones outside. The fact that Levid reached the Space Bending Realm was already remarkable if one considered the place they were in.

Rean then smiled back at Levid, saying, “Nice to meet you, Grand Elder Levid. I’m Rean, and this evil-looking guy by my side is my brother Roan. We heard that you wanted to talk to us. Could it be something related to joining your purging organization?”

Levid wasn’t surprised that Rean asked that, replying, “Well, seems like Himatikia already told you a few things. Indeed, as part of the purging organization, you won’t be able to help any of the powers in the Upside Down World. However, that isn’t the only reason why I called you over.”
