Chapter 2178 No Energy
The twins projected their minds into the Soul Gem Orb and swiftly found their desired objective. The Time Option was right there for them.
[Time Acceleration – 1000000 Destiny Points]
“Sister Orb, how many Destiny Points do we currently possess?” Rean inquired before proceeding with the purchase.
[You currently have 2633215 Destiny Points. You can acquire this time acceleration and allocate the remaining points elsewhere.]
Rean and Roan nodded, proceeding to initiate the purchase promptly.
[Time Acceleration – 1000000 Destiny Points]
[Confirm Purchase?]
“Yes!”
[Destiny Points: 2633215]
[Purchase Confirmed]
[Initiating Upgrade]
Instantly, the entire atmosphere of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm began to transform. Golden light permeated every corner of the planet, including its underground and skies. The same occurred with the sun and the void surrounding it.
In proximity to the other structures of the Soul Gem System, a new construction began to take shape. Although not grand in size, they were spacious enough for a few individuals to reside within. Of course, it wasn’t there so that someone could move inside. It obviously had nothing to do with that.
These changes continued for several hours, causing concern among the demon beasts and village inhabitants. Sister Orb had to visit the village and assure them that all was well, while Celis relayed the same information to Zutuk.
Let us not forget that Rean and Roan still harbored all the people from Sesame’s home within the realm, as they had yet to be given the opportunity to relocate to the human territories in the Realm of Gods.𝚗𝗈𝑽𝚎𝓁𝚞𝐒𝓑.𝗰𝔬𝓂
At some point, the Spatial Barrier separating the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm from the outside Spatial Space assumed a faint golden hue. Evidently, this was indicative of the presence of temporal energy. Onlookers observed these changes until, finally, the golden radiance in the environment subsided. However, the golden traces of color at the Spatial Barrier persisted.
[Upgrade Complete.]
Although it was apparent that the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm had undergone a significant alteration, it bore no impact on its fundamental structure. Were it not for the golden hue at the Spatial Barrier, one would hardly discern that anything had occurred.
“Let’s take a look inside that new building.” Rean and Roan paid no mind to this, proceeding directly to the newly emerged structure resulting from the upgrade.
Within, they discovered an empty pit in the ground. Additionally, countless golden runes adorned the entire structure. Finally, a screen positioned on the opposite side of the room faced the entrance.
Sister Orb floated inside soon after. [Alright, I have acquired the complete instructions on how this functions, although it should be rather self-explanatory. The pit in the ground is where you must deposit the source of Divine Energy that will accelerate time within the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. As for the screen, it allows you to control the speed at which time moves. Naturally, this entire building constitutes a complex Circuitry Formation.]
Rean and Roan nodded. “That is good to know. However, can the Time Acceleration operate by harnessing the ambient Divine Energy?”
[It can, but the rate at which it functions depends on our current location. As you are aware, the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm collects Divine Energy from a vast range of the external world and concentrates it within the realm. Consequently, the Divine Energy within is consistently more abundant than outside.]
[Therefore, the amount of Divine Energy available for accelerating time hinges upon the volume of Divine Energy being drawn from the exterior. The Divine Energy in this part of the Realm of Gods is so scarce that the Demon Beasts here seem incapable of reaching the Void Tempering Realm. That said, do not expect a significant acceleration. The effects would be exponentially greater were we situated at the Center of the Realm of Gods.]
She added further, [By the way, this Circuitry Formation does not differentiate between types of energy. It can employ energy from the Underworld and Heaven as well.]
The twins were content with the outcome. Rean then stepped forward and reached the screen, causing it to illuminate instantly and reveal basic information.
-Time Acceleration: Not active-
-Energy Source: Environmental-
Subsequently, Rean selected the time acceleration option, which presented a few additional choices.
-Please specify the acceleration speed-
“Holy shit!” Rean was taken aback by the tremendous speed at which it could accelerate. The options ranged from doubling to a thousandfold increase! “Just how much energy would it need to accelerate a thousand times?”
The workings of the system were also easily comprehensible. Alongside the acceleration magnitude, the required amount of Divine Energy was displayed. The initial three levels, corresponding to Two, Three, and Four Times, were labeled ‘Environmental.’ “So, the environmental Divine Energy is sufficient to quadruple the time acceleration, huh?”
Roan nodded. “It appears so. Activate the formation and let us witness its functionality.”
Without hesitation, Rean selected the four times option to test.
Every golden rune in the room radiated brightly as the building itself began absorbing Divine Energy from outside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Subsequently, the Dimensional Realm emanated a golden glow for a few seconds, signifying the acceleration of time within.
Finally, the time speed settled at four times its original rate. Rean even established a slight connection with the outside world, observing a tree swaying in the wind. From his perspective, the tree appeared to move at a significantly slower pace—four times slower, to be precise. Of course, it was not the tree itself that had slowed down, but rather the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm that had accelerated. “Four times! And we do not even require Divine Stones for this!”
Yet, their elation dissipated as swiftly as it had arrived. That’s because they noticed a change in their surroundings. “Divine Energy has vanished…”
Indeed, all the Divine Energy within the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm had vanished entirely. The reason became evident to anyone who pondered the situation. The Divine Energy that typically sustained the Dimensional Realm was now being entirely consumed by the Time Acceleration Formation!
