Death… And Me Chapter 263

Chapter 263 - Resisting The Universal Restraint

'Wait? Move away? What do you mean? You said nothing about getting away from the others before.'

[That's because I didn't know what would happen. But just now, I felt a terrifying power approaching. Anyway, there is no time to waste. Move away now!]

'Fuck!'

'Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!'

Rean and Roan then transformed into two flashes of Black and White Lights as they dashed away. At the same time, Rean used his Spiritual Sense to talk with those two. Fortunately, Spiritual Sense messages were instantaneous. As long as you know what you wanted to convene, it would be transmitted.

'Seniors, something urgent came up. Please look at Freta and Malaka for a bit. Roan and I will be right back.'

Of course, Tuve and Weren, as well as Malaka and Calina, were taken aback by their sudden escapade. It was too sudden, after all. However, what really shocked them was the twins' speed just now. They were just a little bit slower than Weren. Well, in fact, they would usually be faster than what they are now. Unfortunately, the lack of Light Element in this place reduced the effectiveness of the Enhancement Ability. That was more than enough for them to understand how they got to this place so fast.

'Wait, you two. Is it an enemy? We can help.'

Rean then messaged them one last time before they left his Spiritual Sense range.

'It's not an enemy, nor it is Demon Beasts. It's something personal. Please, just wait a bit. If we take too long, you can simply go ahead by yourself. The time I bought for you with the Light Element should make up for it.'

Weren and Tuve didn't know what to say, but it was evident that Rean and Roan didn't want anyone to follow them. They didn't think that Rean and Roan were trying to trick them, though. That's because the twins were going in the opposite direction as them. It wouldn't make sense unless they were planning to move all the way to the entrance and find another cave.

Tuve then looked at Weren before asking.

"What do we do?"

Weren shrugged his shoulders.

"What else can we do? We can only wait. Did you see how fast they moved? They already left our Spiritual Sense range anyway. Finding them in this Decaying Fog again will be extremely annoying. Besides, I still want to hear more about Roan's idea."

Tuve couldn't help but comment.

"Are you crazy? Those are the Imperial Family Experts we're talking about. Do you really want to mess with them?"

Weren shook his head.

"Of course not. But I don't think that kid would ask something like that for no reason. You noticed it already, didn't you? Those twins aren't normal. Besides, Rean indeed helped us a lot with his Light Element just a moment ago."

Tuve then began to scratch his head helplessly.

"Ahhh! Fine! But if he doesn't give me a good reason for it, I'm out!"

Malaka and Calina then move closer to Kentucky. Just before the twins disappeared, Roan told them that Tuve and Weren would stay with them.

"Why did they run away?"

Asked Malaka, puzzled.

"I was hoping that you two girls knew the answer."

Malaka and Calina shook their heads in response. They were just as puzzled as Tuve and Weren.

Tuve sighed and then looked at 'Freta.'

"By the way, who are you? I don't remember having seeing you before."

Calina had discussed with Roan about an excuse in case they needed to talk about her identity with others. She just didn't think she would need it so early.

"Well…"

However, just as she was about to talk…

*Tremble!*

The entire area began to shake. In fact, it wasn't only where they were staying. The entire Profound Abyss began to tremble as well.

"What is this? Earthquake?!"

All the cultivators stopped in their tracks. Not only them, but even the Decaying Demon Beasts weren't moving either. Everyone didn't expect something like this to happen.

Back on Rean and Roan's side, they also noticed when it started.

[Stop! It's here.]

As soon as Sister Orb said that, the world around them began to change. What before was a cave full of Decaying Fog and darkness suddenly became a vision of outer space. There were no planets close to them, nor a sun. All they could see were the stars that were probably tens of thousands, millions, or maybe even billions of light-years away.

However, something ridiculous seemed to have happened right in the next instant. The stars that were supposed to be so far away were suddenly pulled to their side! The twins' vision then became filled with millions of suns of all sizes. But that wasn't all. They also noticed several black holes in the middle.

Unfortunately, they couldn't admire it for long. The moment that all those celestial bodies appeared near them, an enormous pressure pressed on their bodies, trying to crush them to dust! By far, that was the highest pain that the twins had ever felt.

Fortunately, the Soul Gem System acted at that very instant.

[Universal Restraint Detected.]

[Analyzing Rejection Conditions.]

[Peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm: Complete]

[1000 Destiny Points: Complete]

[All Conditions Met, Initializing Universal Restraint Rejection.]

*Vup!*

Just like when Rean and Roan brought items from the Dimensional Realm, the Soul Gem Orb appeared in front of them in the same way.

[Yin Yang Protection Mode Initialized.]

The Soul Gem Orb then began to shine with a White and Dark Light, which covered the twins like a membrane. As soon as that happened, Rean and Roan felt the pressure over their bodies reduce by at least 99%. Although it looked like the Soul Gem Orb took a long time to act, the fact was that not even half a second passed yet. Still, that less than half a second was enough to almost kill the twins right there and then!

Of course, 99% was still not 100%. That meant that Rean and Roan still had to resist that last fraction of power attacking their bodies. Once again, the twins began to contort like worms. It's just that it happened in the middle of outer space. That less than 1% was still enough to make them feel like their bodies were being smashed by a mountain.

Rean and Roan even began to bleed through their entire body as injures began to appear one after another. To be more specific, it looked more like 'cracks' were covering their bodies instead.

"Fu-ck!"

As Rean and Roan resisted the pressure, the area outside the Profound Abyss was also in chaos. Even Elder Polian, the Saint Realm Expert, couldn't tell what was happening. With his Spiritual Sense, he could see that everything hundreds of kilometers around this place was passing through the same 'Earthquake.'

'What is happening here? Is it the Profound Abyss? Or is it happening to all the countries around?'

Another elder responsible for the event then came close to him before asking.

"Elder Polian, should we stop the Profound Abyss trial?"

Polian immediately shook his head.

"No. We don't know if what is happening is because of the Profound Abyss or not. Even if it is, it is common for cultivators to find adversities during their path to higher realms. They will have to deal with it on their own. Once the Profound Abyss comes to an end, we can take a look inside."

The elder nodded and didn't say anything else.

Back on Rean and Roan's side, the Soul Gem Orb continued to shine with White and Black Lights as it protected the twins. That torture continued for ten minutes straight. If Rean and Roan didn't keep using the Life Style's Second Form nonstop, they might have bled to death already. It was constant destruction and reformation. Luckily, they had passed by similar experiences before with the Soul Gem System Upgrades, so they could still resist the pain and focus on healing themselves.

It was then that the Soul Gem System's voice echoed in their minds once more.

[Universal Restraint Has Been Repelled Successfully. 1000 Destiny Points have been consumed.]

As soon as the system said that, Rean and Roan felt like they plummeted from outer space straight into the ground in less than a second! The world around them came back to normal right after, and they were once again inside the Decaying Cave.

However, they soon noticed that the cave wasn't the same anymore. Instead, the twins seemed to be inside a massive spherical room! Although the ceiling was still there, what before was just ten or so meters above their heads, now was at least two kilometers away! As to why they could see it? That's because there was no Decaying Fog around whatsoever. That event had literally destroyed everything around them, Decaying Fog included! It was a perfect 2km radius on all sides, with the twins at the epicenter.

Of course, the lack of Decaying Energy didn't last for long. Soon, Decaying Energy began to come out of the walls and the ground and slowly filled the room they were in.

*Pin!*

[Congratulations to the Hosts for resisting the first Universal Restraint.]

[Reward: One Free Upgrade from the Reward System.]

The Soul Gem Orb then disappeared, going back into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

[Hey, do you need me to find a coffin, or maybe two?]

Rean and Roan's mouth twitched. Sure enough, Sister Orb was back.

'Ignore it, ignore it. Focus on recovering.'

[Oh! By the way, your suffering was not in vain. You got a tiny bit of Universe Essence just now.]

Rean and Roan were taken aback. What's Universe Essence?
