Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1553 It didn"t go anywhere

Levid was surprised to hear that. "They finished?!"

Vaz just so happened to be walking in their direction, so he heard Levid"s question. "Hmph! Who do you think we are? Of course, we finished!"

Following that, he looked at everyone and said, "Alright, as mentioned before, there is only space enough for 300 members or so. Fortunately, counting everyone here, we barely pass 70 people and demon beasts in human form. If you have family members you wish to bring and things like that, you better go back to the tower and bring them right now. I heard your conversation, and I know what the tower"s protection formation is capable of. I"ll give everyone 30 minutes to organize and enter the formation. We will depart without you if you"re not here by then."

Of course, no one had to hear that twice. Several elders immediately stepped into the formation while others returned to the tower to get their own things or family members. The good thing was that they were all very old, so few really had any living relatives.

While they worked on that, Rean approached Vaz and said, "Senior Vaz, now that it"s concluded, my work is done."

Vaz was taken aback to hear that. "Aren"t you going to use it?"

"It"s too risky," Rean replied. "We don"t know where it"ll shoot us. There"s a really high chance of dying. Instead of doing it, I think I"ll stay and work on something safer for my brother and me to use. As you know, from a cultivator"s point of view, I"m still very, very young."

Vaz pondered over it a bit and nodded in the end. "Fine. I did say that anyone who didn"t want to come would not be forced to. Here, take this." With that, he then passed Rean a small token with some formation inscriptions on it.

"Hmm? A teleport destination?" Rean obviously recognized the thing straight away.

Vaz confirmed Rean"s words, telling him, "That"s correct. This coordinator can teleport you and anyone in the tower"s formation room to a place outside the tower. Few really know about your part in the project since you joined last. With that said, I doubt others will go look after you. Use it with your brother to not get caught up in the chaos outside."

Rean couldn"t help but feel bad inside after that. He knew that the formation wouldn"t work to start with. Of course, he didn"t mention it. "Thank you, Elder Vaz."

Rean then began to make his way to the teleport formation building underground. Clinbay saw that but didn"t mind it. He heard Rean"s conversation with Vaz, so he agreed that Rean, with his knowledge, had a much better chance if he tried something else later. He wasn"t like the other elders and himself, who were already very old and couldn"t wait anymore. "Thanks for the help, boy. If we meet again in the future, let me brew some tea for you."

Rean smiled in response as he passed by Elder Clinbay.

Then again, Rean wasn"t the only one to make that decision. Even though the majority there were very old, a few weren"t. Those guys decided that they also didn"t want to risk it and were happy enough to have learned so much about formations in this place. With that said, they also chose to leave.

*Zush!* Rean teleported away and reappeared in the white tower once more. Roan, of course, knew what was happening, so he was already waiting for him. "So, should we wait or use the teleport formation?"

Rean shook his head as he replied, "Let"s wait. Fortunately, I was able to work on the runes so that they would destroy the formation but won"t cause damage to the people in the shooting chamber. If I"m not wrong, they will start to come back in the next 30 minutes or so after they find out the formation failed."

Roan narrowed his eyes in response. "Will they be able to tell that the culprit was you?"

"No," Rean answered. "There will be no formation left to be analyzed after it breaks apart. First of all, this formation was already a mess, so they"ll most likely blame it on the chaos that the formation itself was."

Celis, who was also there, then said, "In that case, let"s wait here. There are still the cultivators and demon beasts outside attacking the tower. If things go south, we"ll use that token Vaz gave you."

Rean and Roan agreed with Celis on that point.

Time quickly passed as the sounds of explosions coming from outside increased. Obviously, more and more people and demon beasts were gathering and helping destroy the protection formation.

Eventually, the thirty minutes that Vaz talked about was finally gone, prompting him to activate the formation from inside the chamber that would be shot through the Upside Down World barrier. "Hold on tight! This trip won"t be anything smooth!" He also warned everyone inside.

Soon, the formation activated as all the Divine Energy that had been stored for so long began to circulate all at once. The several stacked formations that filled the main formation then began to light up one after another as more and more energy passed through.

Seeing that, Vaz and the other Formation Masters were quite satisfied. After all, the formation had been working fine so far. The sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

However, just when all the energy began to pass through the power control runes, the runes themselves started to crack one after another. It"s just that Vaz"s group could see it in the middle of all that energy.

*Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack...*

*Shatter!*

Eventually, the runes couldn"t hold all that power and began to shatter without stopping. As a result, all the energy was released, destroying the formations around them.

*Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom...*

Explosions of Divine Energy wreaked havoc in the underground area, threatening to make everything fall down. Fortunately, the underground area was also protected by a protection formation, so it was able to hold on somehow.

The chamber where Vaz"s group was located, of course, was not shot into the Upside Down World barrier. Instead, the explosions made it kick everywhere. If the members inside were not cultivators and demon beasts, they probably would have broken several bones already.

The explosions of Divine Energy continued for over a minute until everything finally settled down. As for the chamber where everyone was inside, it didn"t go anywhere.
