Death… and me

Chapter 2555 Complete

Even though Lostrai didn’t want to talk about what he learned in this Azum Dimensional Realm, Rean and Kentucky knew all this technology came from outside the Universe. Above all, Rean knew about Circuitry Formations, so he decided to use his free time to study these runes.

‘I see… these Runes are definitely from the same Universe as the Ruins of the Stars. It’s just that I hadn’t seen any runes used for sealing before,’ Rean thought as he looked at the Runes. ‘These ones here should be pretty useful. If I add them to my new armor… could it work? I will have to gather all the blacksmiths and formations masters in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm for us to give it a try.’

Rean spent just one month in Kanlas City. After all, he helped destroy all the equipment here, so there wasn’t much for him to see. “Lostrai, where in the next city?”

Lostrai looked at him with doubt. “You are not thinking about releasing that thing, are you?”

“Of course not!” Rean quickly shook his head. “However, it is not every day I have new types of runes to work with. I want to see the ones that are still working.”

“Hmph!” Lostrai snorted in response. “It took so long for me to learn about them. Do you think a few months is enough for you to acquire anything?”

Rean shrugged his shoulders. “Who knows? You are not the only one who knows about Circuitry Formation Runes, you know?”

“Circuitry what?” Lostrai got puzzled.

Only then did Rean remember that this name was given by the system. It didn’t mean Lostrai or the other Universes used it. “Anyway, where is the next city?”

Lostrai had his doubts but didn’t ask further. “It’s not too far. Five thousand kilometers to the northeast, you have Gonbal City. As for the northwest, there you will find Ulistrin City. They are pretty much the same as this Kanlas City. Everything there has already become a bunch of old ruins, and only the sealing formation is still working, thanks to the maintenance I made on them.”

Rean quickly jumped on Kentucky’s back and brought Lostrai together. With their cultivation, they wouldn’t take long to cover such a distance.

“Is it okay, Rean?” Kentucky asked.

Rean looked at him. “What do you mean?”

Kentucky looked at Lostrai in response. “He had access to the Energy Source of this City and gave us a lot of trouble. If we bring him to another city where another source of energy exists, wouldn’t he be able to absorb it and reach a Divinity Realm level of strength again?”

Lostrai didn’t say anything, but Rean just smiled. “Oh, that? Don’t worry; he definitely can use that source of energy as well. Let’s go.”

“What?!” Kentucky was taken aback. “You know he most likely can use that other source, and you still want to bring him there?”

Even Lostrai didn’t understand Rean’s decision. It was true, he spent a very long time here, so he obviously used the same trick to use the other cities’ source of energy. As long as he was close enough, he would be able to absorb it and rebuild his Beast Like Energy Body. He would once again be as strong as Lotar, the Divinity Realm Shadow Feral. “What are you plotting?”

“Plotting? Hahaha!” Rean couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “I just think that regardless of whether you have access to that source of energy or not, you definitely won’t do anything to me or Kentucky.”

“Oho… and why wouldn’t I?” Lostrai asked back.

“Simple,” Rean answered. “The Shadow Ferals are gone…”

Only then did Lostrai understand the issue. Indeed, the Shadow Ferals are gone. That meant there wasn’t anyone capable of opening a breach in the Azum Dimensional Realm due to how sturdy its Spatial Laws were. His only choice now was to rely on Rean and his new vessel since the Fragment couldn’t be taken away from this Dimensional Realm.

Lostrai had tried to use another vessel before. He used the angels he controlled and got quite a few good materials to build something. Unfortunately, nothing worked. None of the other vessels could hold his Artifact Soul. Otherwise, why would he switch to something like the Shadow Ferals’ corrosive laws to escape this place? He would rather have entered another vessel and left this place a long, long time ago.

At the moment, Rean’s guarantee that he could make a vessel capable of holding his soul was his only chance of truly leaving this place anytime soon. “And what impedes me from making you two prisoners and forcing you to build me a new vessel?”

Rean shrugged his shoulders. “Is that so? Then what impedes me from making a vessel that will self-explode without you noticing because you decided to imprison Kentucky and me?”

“This…” Lostrai truly felt like he was even more in Rean’s hands than before. He couldn’t think of an alternative. “But you can still do it even if I don’t do anything against you.”

“Indeed,” Rean nodded. “I can still make a self-exploding vessel even if you fulfill your part of the agreement. However, the chances of it happening are a lot smaller as long as you don’t suddenly turn against us, don’t you think?”

Seeking the lack of response from Lostrai, Rean laughed even more. “Hahaha! Let’s go, Kentucky. I think I can gain a lot by studying these runes while we wait for Roan to come.”

For cultivators, especially those at the Space-Time Realm and above, time wasn’t of much importance. So, just like that, another ten months passed in a flash.

On a certain day, during night time, a furnace lid was open under the gaze of tens low cultivation alchemists as well as two World Swallowing Cedars. From inside, four pills emerged, every single one of them with a dark green color. Somehow, those pills seemed to absorb all types of energy around them, which was definitely not ordinary.

Roan took both pills in his hands and faintly smiled. “Finally, the World Swallowing Pill is complete.”
