Death… And Me Chapter 937 - It Will Take Some Time

Chapter 937 - It Will Take Some Time

The red-eyed being had been looking through the eyes of the demon beasts and the crimson spheres so far. At this point, he wasn't even angry anymore since he knew complaining wouldn't change anything. He lost countless years of work, and he could only sit down and start again. But first, he had to take care of the culprits. 'Come! I refuse to believe that I won't take at least one of you down with the number of demon beasts I have defending each remaining Soul Submission Orb. Let's see how you escape next time!'
However, Rean's group was far from any of the orbs. Instead, they made their way to the north of the Blood Lake, soon finding the hidden entrance Red talked about. Of course, Rean's group didn't think the enemy hadn't put any protection in place, so they moved carefully. However...nothing happened! It's just that they didn't know if it was because of Rean and Red's concealment abilities or not. After all, with both of them together, it was hard to imagine anyone finding their presence without the help of Spiritual Sense or Soul Power Scanning, which couldn't be used in this dimensional realm..
They appeared inside a cave, very similar to the one Roan was before. Seeing no danger, Roan said, "Let's keep going."
Frin and Duran acted as the frontline while the rest followed right behind. Rean and Red kept close to them to make it easier to conceal their presence. As for Roan, Kentucky, and Celis, they were at the back.
"Red, do you know how far we are from the core?" Duran asked at the front.
Red pondered in silence a bit before answering, "More or less. The memories are still a bit hazy to me. But I think that at this speed, we will need somewhere around 10 minutes to leave this tunnel and enter the area we're looking for."
He was right. It didn't take long for them to arrive at a huge cave area. Well, calling it a cave wouldn't be right. The area looked more like a bunch of ruins. It had something different, though. Instead of the predominant crimson color shining everywhere in the entire dimensional realm, the ruins shone brightly with a dark color instead.
Roan immediately narrowed his eyes before telling Rean through their Soul Connection, 'The Underworld Energy here is really thick. The enemy is definitely someone from the Underworld.'
Roan then looked at the others, saying, "As you can see, there's a lot of Dark Energy here, which looks very similar to my own. However, they aren't the same. Try to use your Spiritual Energies to keep them out of your bodies. I don't know if it has some detrimental effect on our bodies."
Everyone nodded and did as Roan said.
Rean then contacted Sister Orb in the Dimensional Realm, asking, [How is it, Sister Orb? Can you feel the formation now that we are here?]
[I always felt the formation,] Sister Orb replied. [It's just that I couldn't figure out where the core was located. However, Red was right. I'm now close enough to be able to say where all the energy of the World Beast Formation is gathering at.]
Rean and Roan were obviously happy to hear that. "So? Where is it?"
[Fifteen and a half kilometers ahead. All the ruins here look similar, but the one in the middle is slightly different. The core is definitely there.]
Rean then told Red Sister Orb's words so that Red could pretend he simply remembered that as well. Red knew of Sister Orb's existence, too, after all. "I remember now! It's ahead! Can you see that building with two pillars on both sides far ahead? The core is underneath it."
Duran and Frin looked at each other and nodded. "Then, we'll continue with the plan. We will keep walking as far as possible until the enemy notices our presence. Once that happens, we will fight it while Rean and the rest try to do something with the formation."
Rean told everyone that since this realm's formation was something the enemy created, perhaps he could make him lose control over it. The reason was simple. This creature had been here for countless years. If it didn't obtain full control until now, then things might not be as easy for it as they thought.
The thick Underworld Energy increased the more they got close. However, Duran and Frin were at the Peak Stage of the Transition Realm. Their Spiritual Energy was more than enough to keep it at bay. The others still had their own methods, like Rean, Roan, and Kentucky's Dark Element or Red's golden lightning. The only one without anything was Gulan, but Red simply helped him as he had been doing so far.
The group arrived in the building in no time. Yet, they went all around it and simply couldn't find an entrance. "Let's go through the roof." They quickly mounted Kentucky, who flew them all above the enormous building. Well, all the ruins in this place were enormous anyway. "Nothing either."
Duran then shrugged his shoulders, saying, "If no one knows a way inside while keeping silent, then Frin and I will just blast our way through."
"Can you even damage these ruins? After all, they might be something made by the seniors of the Realm of Gods." Rean asked.
Duran and Frin had to admit he was right. With that being said, they came down once again and grabbed a small piece of the crumbled ruins. After that, Duran and Frin tried to destroy it with their Spiritual Energies...only to not leave a single scratch behind. "This..."
Rean could not help but let out a sigh from the result. "As I thought. We need to find another way in."
Roan then raised his hand, saying, "Let me try my Dark Element." In fact, that was an excuse. These ruins were bathed in Underworld Energy, so Roan was going to try to use his knowledge about it to drive the energy out.
His Spiritual Energy and Dark Element entered a wall by his side as he focused on a single point. 'Indeed, it's Underworld Energy, but it's very different than the one I know. It'll take some time...'
