Death… and me

Chapter 2691 The Last One



Chapter 2691  The Last One

“Should we attack the barrier together?” Gragatou asked the others behind. However, they didn’t want to waste their energy with anything else at the moment. “Forget it. The way to get rid of the barrier is probably inside the tower anyway.”

Gragatou nodded and turned back to the tower. It was quite big, so they went around, trying to find an entrance. Well, there wasn’t really a need for it since it had many windows. They just didn’t want to activate any possible traps going through them.

“The source of the barrier is at the highest floor from what we can see. Let’s just fly straight up and deal with it. Whatever treasures should also be there,” Sansara suggested.

Indeed, with so many windows going all the way up, entering the tower from the first floor didn’t make much sense now that they didn’t find a proper door or gate to use. They might as well get over with it, so they immediately took flight.

No one wanted to be left behind, as they all desired whatever was inside this tower. Their hopes were that a method to reach the Celestial Realm might be there, so they couldn’t let others get to the top first. There might be even a fight for the treasures in that place.

They all flew up as fast as they could, covering several kilometers in the blink of an eye… just to find out the tower’s top didn’t seem to be getting any closer. After over a minute going up, Kafan was the first one to slow down. Sure, the tower was very high, but with their cultivation and speed, such a distance shouldn’t have taken more than a few seconds to cover.

The others soon noticed this problem as well and stopped. They definitely saw themselves passing by countless floors and windows from the tower. Yet, it felt like they weren’t going anywhere.

“Ahem…” Suddenly, they all heard a voice and looked down. What they saw surprised them quite a bit. It was Rean, looking at those Semi-Celestial Experts as if he were seeing some kind of show. “Weren’t you all going to fly to the top of the tower? You have all been at the same altitude for over a minute already, moving left and right, front and back nonstop.”

“We… have?” Kafan asked, finding it hard to believe. Yet, Rean was just a few tens of meters down below, standing side by side with the other members of his group and some of the Peak Divinity Realm experts that followed the Semi-Celestials. Didn’t he just fly at top speed for over a minute? How come Rean and the others were still so close?

Black Locust quickly asked one of his Devils. “What did you see?”

Moloch, the same one from the entrance, quickly nodded. “Yes, he is right. In our eyes, you just kept moving around without ever going up.”

Black Locust and the others understood. There was some kind of illusory or spatial blockage that prevented them from really flying to the top. That made sense since it would be a huge flaw in the tower’s defense if such a thing was possible. They all came down and looked at the windows on the first floor. They could only enter the tower through them and go up from there, and that’s considering the same issue couldn’t be found inside.

Rean then looked at Landeau, whom he hadn’t had much of a chance to talk to since they separated. As Landeau was a Peak Divinity Realm member of the Essence Race, he was obviously allowed to follow into the tower was well. ‘Senior, one quick question. You also came here to find a chance to become a Semi-Celestial or maybe even enter the Celestial Realm. So far, all the Peak Divinity Realm experts I met are still only Peak Divinity Realm experts. Is this place making any difference for you guys at all?’

Landeau would bitterly smile if he had a physical body. ‘Not really. I already have all the necessary comprehension of the laws I need, so there hasn’t been much use for the Chaos Laws so far. I used it all in Chaos Cultivation alone, and so did the others at my level, I believe.’

Rean nodded. He just wanted to confirm. It seems that just having Chaos Laws wasn’t enough for someone to enter the Semi-Celestial Level.

Black Locust’s group of Devil didn’t waste time there. They quickly went around the tower and selected one of the windows to enter. “We are going ahead. The rest of you do whatever you want.” Without waiting for an answer, the Devils entered the tower.

Sophia and the angels weren’t any slower and selected another random window in another part of the tower. “I wish you all good luck.”

The Spirits, the Vruves, The Demon Beasts, etc… They all gathered together and selected other windows to enter through other parts of the tower. There wasn’t much of a point in waiting anyway.

In the end, only Kafan and the twins’ group remained… Well, and Landeau, who wasn’t really affiliated with any of the Semi-Celestials there. Huban stayed in the Realm of Gods, after all.

Kafan then looked at them. “Well, we might as well go too.”

“Do you wish to come with us, Senior Landeau?” Rean asked the Essence Race guy.

Yet, Landeau shook his head. “As you know, I don’t like you… but I can’t say I hate you anymore, either. Nonetheless, I shall seek my own fortunes, so just try to not die.” After saying that, he also selected a random window and got inside.

Roan stepped ahead. “Let’s go.”

Kafan, Rean, Celis, and Kentucky followed. They were the last ones, so they took the chance to select a window that was as far as possible from any of the other windows that were used before. Finally, they picked one that fit the requirements and entered it.

“Errr…” Well, the twins’ group and Kafan weren’t really the last ones, though. The Devil that Black Locust threw inside the barrier was still there… “I kind of feel ignored here… Oh, fuck it! I’ll take my chances!” And so, he was truly the last one to enter the tower.
