Chapter 1954 Slow and Fast
1954 Slow and Fast
It was then that Luan raised his hand. “Father, let me try if I could see the spirits inside the Gods’ Dividing Barrier. I should be able to see them from far enough and help Fluki avoid them.”
Roan and the others looked back at Luan in response. They all knew that Luan’s eyes could see the elements. However, all continental barriers were filled to the brim with them. Back when Luan tried to do it, he felt more like he was blind than seeing anything better. “Will you be able to separate the spirits inside the barrier from the Elements themselves?”
Luan nodded, replying, “My eyes have improved a lot since that time. Divine Senses and Spatial Perceptions don’t work in the barrier, so I think I would be the best choice. I’ll stay on Fluki’s back and guide us through it. I should be able to differentiate the spirits from the Elements in the barrier now. Besides, if it doesn’t work, Fluki can simply go with the plan of passing through as fast as he could while he keeps both of you in his mouth.”
Roan nodded without thinking twice. “That’s good. However, make sure you hide well while you’re out so that no one will see you. If anything happens, I’ll send you straight into the Dimensional Realm before you can be identified.”
“Great!” Fluki was more than happy to hear that. “Let’s go!” He immediately placed Rean and Roan inside his mouth while Luan jumped on his back. With that, they went to the Gods’ Dividing Barrier.
“How is it?” Fluki asked as he got close to it. “Can you tell where the spirits are?”
Luan narrowed his eyes and couldn’t help but become a little tense. They were getting very close to it, but he could only see a sea of Elements. However, just as they were about to enter it, Luan raised his voice. “Stop!”
He could barely see a few spots where the flow of Elements and Divine Energy was different from his current position. “Go to the right.”
A few minutes later, Luan found a location where he couldn’t see any of those changes in the flow. “Go inside, Fluki. Be ready to follow my commands.”
As a Continental Barrier Spirit, Fluki could also see quite far inside. Yet, Luan’s eyes were just that better. With that, Fluki began to swim inside the Gods’ Dividing Barrier. Up, down, right, left, etc… sometimes, he was even made to retreat a bit. At other times, he had to dash forward within a marginal time frame. Nevertheless, Fluki was surprised to see that he really hadn’t seen any spirit up to that moment.
Unfortunately, the Gods’ Dividing Barrier was truly full of Continental Barrier Spirits. “Shit, we’re surrounded!”
Roan heard that from inside Fluki’s mouth and didn’t waste time. In an instant, Luan disappeared from the Realm of Gods, heading into the Dimensional Realm. Soon after, Roan ordered. “He brought us this far. You should be able to do the rest.”
Fluki was already running when he heard Roan’s voice. “You don’t need to tell me twice.”
One of the spirits was swimming inside the Gods’ Dividing Barrier, not caring too much about the things around him. After the devils were forced to stay in the northeast, rarely anyone tried to cross the barrier with them there. However, it was then that he noticed a flash of yellow light within the several other elements of the barrier.
“What?!”
That spirit was taken aback for a moment. Especially since it wasn’t someone coming from the devils’ territory but from the demon beasts’ territory instead. “Stop right there!”
He quickly shot in that direction, trying to catch up. However, he quickly noticed that he wasn’t a match for that thing. “It’s a spirit from some other race, a very high-ranked one at that.” He didn’t give up, though. He used his own power and caused as much commotion as possible, trying to catch the attention of other spirits in the surroundings.
Fluki looked at his back for a moment and felt a sense of urgency. In just a few moments, more than five spirits started to chase after him. ‘Hmph! Let me see if you can catch me then!’
Fluki used even more of his own power, increasing his speed even more. Common Transition Realm spirits couldn’t even dream about following him. Yet, that action only helped increase the commotion and attract even more spirits. Some even tried to block his path ahead of him and attacked.
‘Well, this isn’t good…’ Fluki couldn’t help but think. There was a limit to what he could do. Nevertheless, he gritted his teeth and dashed forward.
However, just as he was about to be hit by some of the attacks…
*Bang, bang, bang…*
All the attacks seemed to hit a Divine Energy barrier and get deflected. Fluki had used his own Divine Energy barrier, but it wouldn’t have been enough to withstand the attacks of so many spirits. Yet, he could tell straight away that Rean and Roan had acted. The twins used their own Divine Energy to create two layers of protection to cover Fluki’s mad dash. ‘Great!’
Of course, Rean and Roan didn’t use their Elements. They only used Divine Energy and nothing else. Using their Elemental Affinities would most likely show that they were there with Fluki. But if it was Divine Energy alone, then it could be anyone. Not to mention that they were still hidden in Fluki’s mouth.
Fluki completely gave up trying to defend himself with the twins’ help and used his full strength to flee. In less than a minute, they had covered pretty much the entire span of the Gods’ Dividing Barrier.
Unfortunately, they weren’t able to make it all the way to the other side before a Void Tempering Realm spirit appeared to block Fluki’s path.
“You have gone far enough!”
Natural spatial perception didn’t work, butthatt didn’t mean Spatial Powers couldn’t be used. Especially since the Gods’ Dividing Barrier had a very calm environment. Before Fluki could do anything, the space around him seemed to become more viscous as the spirit at the Void Tempering Realm tried to capture him.
