Death… and me

Chapter 2853: Useless

Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis… They might be another clue to the Celestial Realm in their own way. Should they just let them roam around like that? Besides, regardless of whether they will be able to reach the Celestial Realm or not, just the fact they were able to absorb Celestial Laws already shows how bright their future is.

“Wouldn’t the Vruves try to find an opportunity to get rid of them?” Gragatou pondered as he asked the others.

“What? Are you saying we should have someone protecting them?” Black Locust understood and immediately hated the idea.

“Seniors don’t need to pay attention to us,” Rean spoke with a smile. “How could we possibly ask any of you to follow us around. The cultivation path is filled with danger. That is a fact all those who cultivate know well. I’m sure you, seniors, had your own challenges on your way to becoming Semi-Celestials. That is only natural.”

Kafan nodded. “They are right. We don’t have time to care about these four anyway. Besides, I highly doubt the Vruves would come for them now. With how precarious our situation is, getting rid of any Divinity Realm expert will only increase the chances of Garisan’s victory. Whether their group can become a problem for the Vruves in the future or not will only be the case if we manage to deal with Garisan. The Vruves know that better than anyone else.”

“Sigh…” Jundonis nodded. “We will only know if they can become Celestial Realm experts far in the future as well. I’m taking my leave. You guys do whatever you want.” And with that, he left through a Spatial Gate.

“Soul Gem,” Black Locust called out. “Do you have any idea how we could use them to reach the Celestial Realm? It would be extremely helpful to us to have a Celestial Realm expert to the incoming battles.”

Soul Gem shrugged. “If I knew that, I would have told you already. The life of only four of them can’t possibly compare to our entire Universe. Unfortunately, I can’t think about anything at the moment. Our best bet is to let them improve and cultivate on their own until they finally reach the peak stage of the Divinity Realm.”

“Can you stop speaking as if we were not here?” Rean bitterly smiled. If sucking his blood could give someone a chance to reach the Celestial Realm, Black Locust most likely would have sucked them dry already.

“Hmph!” Black Locust also turned around and opened a Spatial Gate. “Then I have nothing else to ask. I’m out.” Black Locust quickly left with the other Devils.

The Semi-Celestials left one after another, leaving only Kafan and Gragatou with the twins’ group.

“Kafan…” Gragatou tried to warn him.

“I know.” Kafa seemed to understand straight away. In the next second, Kafan waved his hand, and the twins’ group disappeared inside his Pocket Dimensional Realm.

Seeing that, Gragatou nodded in satisfaction and left as well.

Kafan took his leave in the next moment.

Later that day, another Spatial Gate appeared where the twins had gone through the Tribulation. From inside, an expert from Garisan came out while carefully watching his surroundings. He took a device out of his Pocket Dimensional Realm and activated it. The Device seemed to absorb the energy of the surroundings for a while. Finally, it gave a small beep, and the expert retrieved it before leaving the area immediately.

Already back in the Realm of Gods, Kafan came out of a Spatial Gate and spread his Divine Sense. After confirming everything was fine, he let the twins’ group come out of his Pocket Dimensional Realm. “Alright, seems like we are safe.”

“Was it the Celestial Realm guy?” Roan asked.

Kafan quickly nodded. “I will never forget the sensation I felt during the various times he attacked from outside the Universe. After your Tribulation was over, that sensation was all over the place, and the other Semi-Celestials noticed it as well.”

“Could it be he is tracking us now?” Rean wondered, concerned.

“Hardly,” Kafan didn’t believe it, though. “If he could track others, he would have killed many key personnel of our Universe already. He probably knew about that place because of the Tribulation instead.”

Kafan then shook his head and put those thoughts to the back of his mind. “Forget about it. Now that everyone else is gone, tell me. What do you know about this breakthrough?”

“It is better to talk with Sister Orb present,” Roan mentioned.

Kafan and the twins’ group disappeared again, this time returning to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. “Sister Orb…”

[I know, I know…] Sister Orb had been waiting for them. [When the Tribulation came out, a memory escaped the seal and returned to my mind. That’s why I said the first step to reach the Celestial Realm was in front of you. Your theories back when you talked to the other Semi- Celestials were correct. You will need to fuse the four normal sublaws with the celestial laws you guys acquired.]

“What will happen after we do that?” Kentucky asked.

[You know how the various cultivation energies in our Universe have the same origin, right? They all come from Chaos Energy initially. The laws are no different. All the laws and sublaws ultimately return to their origin, the Celestial Laws. So, if you merge the normal laws and the celestial laws you absorbed, you will simply manage to comprehend the Celestial Laws. Light and Dark for Rean, Roan, and Kentucky. As for Celis, Absorption and Wood.]

Kafan was happy to hear that. “In that case, can they reach the Celestial Realm?”

[As I said, this is just the first step. Unfortunately, I’m not sure what the next steps are. Perhaps the memories of the next steps didn’t come out, or perhaps the old me didn’t really know. Nonetheless, it is a step in the right direction.]

In the end, their group ended up with more doubts than answers…

“Forget it,” Roan didn’t care at the moment, though. “We still need to reach the Peak Stage of the Divinity Realm first. We can think about it later.”

“Roan is right,” Celis agreed with him. “Let’s focus on our gains. Other than the Celestial Laws, our bodies, dantians, cores, and souls were tempered by that Purple Energy. What was

that?”

They all looked at Sister Orb.

[Nope. I have no idea.]

“As always, useless,” Roan commented without mercy.
