Death… and me

Chapter 2322 Down the Crack



Chapter 2322 Down the Crack

The place they selected to go down was known to have one of the strongest Continental Barriers. That said, it could have two reasons. One, it is closer to the source of the Continental Barrier Energy, or the channels that connect to that place are far wider. Regardless of the reason, both options were a good choice to select this entrance.

But then again, the twins’ group was already prepared for a long journey. First, there was no way to use Spatial Gates here since you couldn’t fix a point of exit. And second, considering that the Continental Barriers extended all the way to the end of the Realm of Gods, even if they entered it here, it was bound to be a long distance to the source.

As they went down the crack, they quickly noticed that not only did the elements get more chaotic, but Space itself became very hard to predict. Luan rubbed his eyes, trying to make sense of what he was seeing. “Father, I’m not going to be of much help here. All this chaos is making me pretty much blind when I’m looking at the Elemental World.”

Roan didn’t mind. “It’s fine. We didn’t really expect things to go easier here. Just keep a look out and speak if you notice something.”

At first, they didn’t notice any dangers. Other than the chaotic elemental environment, they didn’t find anything that could make them wary. Just like that, they kept descending to this endless path down the earth. However, after four days of going down, the first signs of change began to appear.

“This is…” Rean was surprised to notice the first signs of light. After going this far, the light from the surface had long since disappeared. They were using Rean Light Element to illuminate their path since their Divine Senses were pretty much useless.

Specs of color light began to appear on the walls of the passage. Rean got very close and grabbed one of them. Their Divine Sense might not be able to go very far, but it definitely could reach a few meters. Rean analyzed those specs of light but couldn’t make out what it was. “It doesn’t look like to be any kind of ore.”

Roan took one of those specs of light and felt like he had seen something similar in the past. “Hum… Doesn’t this thing remind you of that guy?”

Rean, Kentucky, and Luan looked at Roan, confused. “What guy?”

Roan took a few more of them to check. “The Flash Beast… Or, to be more precise, the Convergence Crystal where it was born.”

Rean narrowed his eyes and thought about the past. Back then, they did meet a Flash Beast. No, that’s not entirely correct. What they found was the Convergence Crystal, where the Flash Beast was growing inside. They used the Convergence Crystal’s natural output of energy to make the Triple Layer Formation. (Check chapter 1195 to find out more about the Flash Beast.)

At that time, only Rean went down the caves to find that Convergence Crystal. Still, as their souls were connected, Rean shared his memories with Roan during the event. That’s how Roan was able to feel the familiarity with these specs of light.

“I see…” Rean had to admit that these specks of colored light did remind him of the Convergence Crystal. “The most accepted reason for the appearance of Flash Beasts was the regulation purpose. If that’s the case, I don’t see why there would be a Convergence Crystal in this place.”

Roan shook his head. “I’m not saying that this thing came from a Convergence Crystal, that it reminds of of one. I might be completely wrong. Still, each of these colored specs does have all the elements.” Roan then looked down. “In any case, we can try to find the answer further down. There is definitely a long way to go still.”

Things continued the same way for over a week. To be fair, the twins’ group could have reached this distance in a day’s worth of time. However, that would also mean not being careful with what they could find here. Roan would never allow that, especially since their Divine Senses were restricted here.

*Bzzz…*

Suddenly, a flash of colored light appeared in their vision. It only lasted a second before it darted further down. “What was that?”

Everyone shook their heads. None of them could make out what it was. “Let’s continue.”

*Bzzz… Flash… Trumm…*

More and more of those flashes appeared, and every single one of them shot further down the path. It was as if they were fleeing from the twins’ group. If Rean and the others used all their speed, they could probably match the flashes of light, but they kept going down slowly. If anything, they reduced their descent speed.

“Kentucky, you go ahead. We will stay on your back,” Roan suddenly said.

“What?!” Kentucky obviously didn’t like it. “Why me?”

Everyone looked at Kentucky. “Isn’t that obvious? You have the highest defense between all of us. If something attacks us, you have the highest chance of survival.”

“You are just sacrificing me!” Kentucky retirned.

“Yeap.” Rean, Roan, and Luan didn’t hide it.

“Fuck that! I’m not going!” Kentucky immediately went behind the twins and Luan.

“Sigh…” Rean sighed after seeing Kentucky’s answer. “And here I thought the Great Kentucky was something. Well, whatever. I’ll go ahead since I can heal myself easier.”

Roan and Luan nodded. “Such a disappointment of a Regal Bloodline.”

Kentucky totally knew they were provoking him. Still, he simply couldn’t hold it back. “Fine! Get the fuck out of the way! The Great Kentucky will show you what courage really means.”

Kentucky returned to his Minokawa Form and let everyone jump on his back, seeing them all smiling… Well, Roan’s smile was cold and more like a sentence of death. “I hate myself…”

Kentucky then hardened his Feather Blades and Scales, descending with everyone on his back. More and more of those lights kept running away as their group approached, and it continued like that for another three days.

However, the situation changed on the fourth.

*Kabrum!*

A think bolt of colored lightning suddenly came from the darkness below, so fast that Kentucky simply couldn’t dodge at all.

*Boom!*

Kentucky, as well as Rean, Roan, and Luan on his back, were sent flying backward.
