Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1243 - Rimari

Surprisingly, the system didn't stop there.

[Congratulations! The hosts have obtained the first Universe Foundation Fragment. A reward of 80000 Destiny Points has been credited. System Processing Power will now be upgraded as a result of the First Fragment's power.]

[Upgrade time: Seven days in the Realm of Gods.]

[Initializing upgrade...]

'80000 Destiny Points! Holy shit!' Rean was surprised to hear that.

However, Roan didn't seem to be that happy. 'This is one of the Universe Foundation Fragments. Isn't 80000 Destiny Points way too little?'

[That's because this is the first one. The more you get, the higher the reward,] Sister Orb quickly responded.

Well, Roan knew that there was no point in complaining. The system never changed things on a whim. 'Alright then.'

With that over, Rean looked at Kentucky, Tiffany, and Liana. "Hmm... Kentucky is one thing. However, what will we do about Tiffany and Liana?"

Roan pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Pretend that we also lost consciousness wouldn't work. After all, you have to keep feeding them your Light Element so that they don't succumb to the Dark Element and Yin Energy in this place. It's obvious that you have to be awake for that. Otherwise, they would be dead."

Rean agreed with Roan on that. "It's not like I can kill them either. The Sacred Land guys outside saw that we came in here with Liana and Tiffany, so they knew we were here. After all, you're the only Dark Element Affinity cultivator everyone knows. Well, I still wouldn't kill them. It would go against my beliefs after I entered the Soul Transformation Realm."

Roan pondered in silence for a bit before a thought popped into his head. "Send Kentucky into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. After that, let's grab the girls and leave this place."

Rean nodded and immediately sent Kentucky away. Soon after, they quickly carried the girls out of the area before they arrived at the gate entrance again. Well, the gate wasn't there anymore, though.

"As I thought," Roan muttered as he looked at the bodies on the ground. The guys they left behind to recover ended up losing their consciousness. At first, Roan only thought it was a possibility. After all, it wasn't like he could see what was happening outside the gate.

"They're dead." Rean couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the forsaken corpses.

Roan nodded. "They lost their conscience while staying in this place. They could have recovered while fighting the super-concentrated Dark Element and Yin Energy if they were awake. However, after losing it, the Dark Element and Yin Energy immediately caused havoc in their bodies. They died without even noticing. That means no one knows that we stayed here other than the Tenke Kingdom people who left earlier."

Rean understood what Roan meant. "That makes things a lot easier. Liana owes us two favors now. We can use it to make her shut up the others' mouths. However, do you think she'll keep her word and succeed in convincing Tiffany and the others?"

Roan shrugged his shoulders in response. "We don't know where the rest went anymore, and some of them were at the Elemental Transformation Realm. We couldn't do anything to them anyway. This is our best choice if we want to keep the secret regarding our entrance into that place. Anyways, let's quickly leave. If another group arrives and sees us here, then it'll become more complicated."

However, it turned out that all groups they found were unconscious as well. Not only that, but they also bumped into more ghosts with complete Yin Ghost Cores on the way out. It's just that those ghosts didn't move at all, as if they had also lost consciousness...if they had any in the first place, that is. How could Rean and Roan let the chance pass up? They immediately attacked and destroyed those ghosts without suffering any retaliation. Two of those ghosts were ghosts at the Transition Realm level as well.

However, that wasn't the thing that delighted Rean and Roan the most. Instead, it was the fact that they found two more members of the Blood Path Sect and their companions unconscious as well. Without a doubt, they were also looking for Roan in the Demising Catacombs. With that said, Roan showed no mercy and immediately cut their heads. 'Blame your own luck.' After taking what was inside their spatial rings, he threw the rings back at the corpses and left.

However, that didn't change the fact that they had gone really far into the Demising Catacombs. It took more than two hours to make their way back close to the entrance, where they found more groups. It would be okay if they were all sleeping as well. However, Rean's group noticed that some of their members had already awakened and protected their knocked-out companions. Fortunately, Rean and Roan had been using the Light and Divine Sense bending skill all this time, so those few awakened cultivators didn't notice them.

'It seems like the further away you are from that skeleton, the lower the effect of its Divine Energy pressure. The people here are starting to get up already.'

Roan agreed with Rean. 'That's most likely the case. Just ignore them, and let's head out. We're almost at the entrance. Also, we have nothing else to do in this place, so let's leave the Demising Catacombs altogether. There's no need to spend the whole month here.'

Rean didn't see anything wrong with that. 'Agreed.'

Eventually, the twins came out of the underground catacombs. However...

'Careful!'

Roan suddenly felt Dark Element converging and coming their way from somewhere outside.

Rean and Roan immediately jumped to the side, dodging what could have been a fatal strike. The power behind the attack was definitely at the Elemental Transformation Realm.

"Oh! How did you dodge that?" a voice asked from outside the entrance. Suddenly, a female cultivator made her way inside as she looked at Rean and Roan. Following her, there were other cultivators that were under her command, just like Granto and the others. One of them was at the Initial Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm, while the other was at the Peak Stage of the Saint Realm. As for the female, she was at the Late Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm.

As she asked, the twins quickly recognized her.. She was Rimari, the last member Roan saw standing by Gille's side before the Demising Catacombs were opened.The most update n0vels are published on Noᴠel Fɪre.net - ɴovᴇlbin
