Death... and me
chapter-2462

Later that day, Rean was brought with Kentucky and Essefy to see Nolui's group. Even after these days, they found no way to escape this place as the Divinity Realm Death Spirits kept watching them very closely. But then again, they were not treated badly. They could cultivate or do anything they wanted as long as they stayed in the designated area.

Seeing Rean's group appear again, Nolui and the others quickly came to receive him. "How was it? Did you succeed?"

Rean smiled as he nodded. "Yes. However, as part of the deal, we will not be able to stay here anymore. We will be sent straight back to the Realm of Gods, and we won't be able to return. From what they told me, they have already closed the Pseudo-Temporal Path we used to come."

Nolui was taken aback. "They... closed it? Is such a thing possible?" He knew more about Pseudo-Temporal Paths than most as he investigated many of them. Even Divinity Realm experts shouldn't be able to do it, as a Temporal Path isn't exactly a physical existence.

Rean shook his head. "I'm not sure, but I'm definitely not complaining. I just hope they fulfill their part of the deal. Not that we have much of a choice. As to how they will send us back, I have no idea."

Anfrou, who was there with them, wasn't in the mood to wait for much longer. "Are you done already? Stop wasting time, and let's go." Right after, he opened a Death Door, connecting to the area near the split of the Universe.

Nolui and the other looked at each other but decided to enter it anyway. It was like Rean mentioned. They didn't have a choice as the experts here are much stronger than them are. Rean, naturally, followed right behind with Kentucky and Essefy.

Kafan was already waiting at the exit of the Death Door opened by Anfrou. He wasn't in his human form, though. He was back to his Death Spirit appearance. "You are lucky we didn't have much of a choice other than relying on your formations' knowledge. Otherwise, we would have wiped your group out of existence already. Now, just get out of here."

Of course, Kafan was just playing the part since that was the excuse Rean gave Nolui and the others at first. Without wasting time, he used his power, causing the whole area over thousands of kilometers to tremble. Although he could open a passage to the other side, it wasn't an easy task.

Nolui, Klinbei, Kanglia, and the others were terrified by that display. It far surpassed what they had seen from Divinity Realm experts so far. Nonetheless, none of them said anything and just watched.

Not long after, a gigantic Spatial Gate opened, from which a huge burst of Divine Energy came. Because this side of the Universe was empty of cultivation energy, it acted as a vacuum machine, trying to take as much Divine Energy from the other side as possible. Of course, for this Divine Energy to fill this side of the Universe, Kafan would need to create several millions of these Spatial Gates and keep them open for a very long time. He was already suffering to keep one open, let alone millions of them.

"Fast! Go inside before I run out of energy. It will close in a few seconds. If you don't go, don't blame me for keeping you here forever," said Kafan with an urgent tone.

Rean's group was the first one to immediately jump inside. There wasn't any reason for them to doubt. Nolui and the others saw that and gritted their teeth, following Rean right behind. Sure enough, a few seconds later, the Spatial Gate closed, leaving only Kafan and Anfrou behind. "Sigh... I hope it all goes okay," Kafan murmured before turning around and leaving the place with Anfrou.

In the middle of the void, several hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the Realm of Gods, a small Spatial Gate suddenly appeared. It was very unstable, seeming to be able to collapse at any moment. A second later, several figures shot out of it like cannonballs, only managing to stop their momentum several hundreds of meters away from the exit.

That group was none other than Rean and everyone else. They all had bloodied bodies, having suffered quite a lot during the transfer to this side. Kinblei and the other Space-Time Realm experts even had to use their power to help Bacia and those at the Elemental Space Realm. Otherwise, they would probably have died. Kafan wasn't joking. Using a passage like his own was quite dangerous.

Everyone then felt the presence of Divine Energy in the surroundings as far as their Divine Senses could go. This time, obviously, their Divine Senses were severely restricted by the Divine Energy of the Universe as it had always been in the area of the Realm of Gods. They weren't sad because of that, though. That was the proof they needed to know they were really back.

Nolui, now reinstated as the leader of the group, quickly gave his orders. "Everyone, focus on recovering your injuries. There doesn't seem to be anyone around, so we first need to heal before we decide where to go."

Kentucky then pointed in a certain direction. "Hey, look! It's the Realm of Gods!"

They all followed his directions, and sure enough, they could see the never-ending land of the Realm of Gods in the distance. Even if they were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, with the Realm of Gods... or better, with Hyeonmu's size, it was very easy to spot it. "I wonder which part of the Realm of Gods we are close to," Kanglia couldn't help but mention.

"Doesn't matter," Nolui answered. "As long as we didn't fall inside the Devil's territory, we can definitely make our way back to the army. Now, focus on healing yourselves. We will leave as soon as we stabilize ourselves."

Everyone nodded, and Rean even helped them all to heal. Finally, Nolui opened a Spatial Gate, and they went back to the Realm of Gods.
