Death... and me

2029 Dark Tide



Just like that, time continued to pass. Luman and the other devils and lakures of the settlement weren't surprised by Luan's sudden arrival. Luman knew the twins had their own Dimensional Realm, so it wasn't anything weird that they had some living beings inside. The same went for Celis, who came out for a short while before quickly going back into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

As mentioned before, the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm evolved with Celis' sprouts during the last upgrade, which allowed it to always have a higher concentration of Divine Energy than the outside world. It was also a lot safer to use the Divine Stones inside the Dimensional Realm.

It only took Rean, Roan, Celis, and Kentucky a little more than five years to reach the door of the Space Bending Realm. The twins' group wasn't running around doing many other types of tasks, after all. They solely focused on their training and cultivation, which was quite rare. Usually, only Celis spent most of the time cultivating for the four of them. Besides, the Void Tempering Realm was still able to grow with normal Divine Energy alone. Only when it came to the Space Bending Realm and beyond would you need Divine Origin Energy.

During this time, the twins did indeed meet the Dark Tide. The entire sky, which was already pretty hard to see, suddenly became completely dark in a matter of just a few seconds. Rean and Roan just so happened to be somewhere around 50000 kilometers from the settlement. Luman told them that the limit of distance to not get lost was 20000, but he didn't know about Luan. With Luan's eyes, the twins' group could go much further away to train and know exactly how to come back every time they needed to rest.

The reason for that was obviously Labina and her two children. Librao wasn't a problem in the twins' eyes. Abelha and Labina, on the other hand, would be hard to deal with. Especially labina and her Space-Time Realm cultivation. The twins would be pretty much useless against her. They went much further away every time to make sure those three wouldn't know how to find them.

As for the Dark Tide, Rean got the formation array from Luman and carried his own Bright Underworld Tree wood. He had already prepared a formation plate that could be activated at any moment. Once used with the Divine Stones, the plate quickly formed a light and dark barrier of a few meters in diameter around it.

Still, Rean got a fright at how fast the Dark Tide reached them. In just a few more seconds, the Dark Tide hit the formation's barrier like a gigantic wave, making it tremble with the impact. He made a note to himself that the moment he saw the sky turning dark again, he would immediately turn on the formation. Luman truly wasn't kidding about the Dark Tide Speed.

Of course, even if they had been hit by the Dark Tide, Luan wouldn't die to it straight away. The huge concentration of Decaying Energy and Dark Element would still take a few minutes to completely corrupt Luan. Besides, they could send Luan into the Dimensional Realma t any time.

The twins then took that chance to step out of the barrier to feel just how powerful the tide was. At first, Rean wasn't that worried. However, he quickly noticed that even with his connection with Roan to draw Roan's Dark Element, he concluded that he wouldn't be able to stay there for more than half an hour. Anything more than that, and he would definitely end dead as well.

Even Roan, who wasn't that concerned at first, had to admit he underestimated the Dark Tide. Sure, he could stay outside and experience the Dark Tide for as long as he wanted. It would never have superior Dark Element Purity or Decaying Energy than his own Dark Element. Nonetheless, Roan had to use a huge amount of Divine Energy to protect himself because of the Space Power behind it. For Roan, his limit would be how much Divine Energy he had, and he believed that it would definitely run out around ninety minutes to at most two hours if he didn't rest.

But in the end, with the help of the formation and the Bright Underworld Tree Wood, they were able to protect themselves against the tide. The tide kept its power constant for three days nonstop. Only then did it finally start to subside. Yet, it wasn't before another two days that one could say it was safe to come out of the formation again.

Going back to the cultivation part, now that their group was finally at the door of the Space Bending Realm, they had to stop to acquire information.

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, Rean, Roan, Celis, and Kentucky were gathered around Sister Orb. Luan was there too. Although he was only there to listen since he was far from the Space Bending Realm.

"So, Sister Orb, how do we convert Divine Energy into Divine Origin Energy?" Celis asked straight away, excited that he was finally ready to breakthrough into the Space Bending Realm.

Rean and the others looked at the Orb as she began to explain. [It's quite simple, actually. The problem is that it is also hard. You can indeed use normal Divine Energy to make the conversion. However, it is extremely slow. That's why Divine Stone of Rank Seven and above are so many times more valuable. In any case, the conversion process is done by extracting the impurities of the Normal Divine Energy and then compressing what remains.]

[First, you pull the Divine Energy into your Dantian or Demon Cores like you always do. However, you will not add it to your cultivation like you did before. Instead, you will use your Nascent Souls to clean it up. All Nascent Souls are in their purest form, so the impurities in Divine Energy can't be absorbed by it. You could say that your Nascent Souls will work like a filter.] Sister Orb started her explanation.
