Death... and me
chapter-2494

Futuxei was taken aback. Hearing that he would lose most of the effect of the Absorption Laws Pill truly hit him hard. He definitely wanted to use the Earth Life Pill straight away to test. He wanted it so much that he even ignored the fact that the pill might be a poison instead. However, knowing that the other pill would be affected gravely made him hesitant. "Do you have more of these pills for Wood Laws?"

Roan shook his head. Of course, he was lying. Roan got more than just one Aberrant Devil Flower, after all. He managed to make five of those pills. However, Roan truly didn't want to spend the other pills since such pills are probably worth a fortune. But above all, if there was another Wood Elements expert in their group in the future, he would rather just let them have it instead. Futuxei was visibly struggling to make a decision. At the same time, he kept all his senses spread to see if there wasn't any trap being set around. As long as anyone entered the range of his root, he would know. Yet, there was truly no one other than the twins' group. Finally, he gritted his teeth and accepted the deal. "FINE! I will help you with the recipe for the Absorption Laws Pill. However, I must have the very first pill you manage to concoct. Also, you must concoct the pill in front of me."

Roan saw no problem with that. "Fine by me." He then moved to a more open area and connected to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

*Bang!*

Sure enough, the Alchemist Workshop dropped to the ground in the next second. Following that, Roan also summoned all his assistants. "Let's not waste time. Come, I already have all the process ready and your help will be extremely necessary."

*Zush!*

Right after, Celis also appeared, much to Celis's surprise. "Eh? Why did you bring me out?"

Roan glanced at him. "Even if you have just touched the Laws of Absorption, you can still help with the pill creation. It will definitely take way over a year, so you better not complain."

Celis and Futuxei looked at each other. It was very rare for World Swallowing Cedars to see each other. Even if they did, it would usually end in one of the two taking the other's core. "Little boy, you better not get the wrong idea."

Celis snorted. "Hmph! I have no need for your core. I have enough confidence to increase my strength without that. What about you? Can you do the same?"

Celis obviously was provoking Futuxei, and Futuxei knew that. "Trying to start a fight. Not that easy."

Roan's expression, on the other hand, was as dark as it could be. "How long the two princesses will keep pulling each other's hair? Let's fucking start!"

"P-Princesses?" Celis and Futuxei had never been called like that. Yet, seeing Roan entering the building, the two could only put their differences aside and follow him.

Outside, Kentucky and Rean looked at each other. "So... what do we do know? Do we simply wait?" Kentucky asked?

Rean pondered a bit and contacted Roan through their Soul Connection. 'Will this pill recipe creation really take more than a year?'

'Yes,' Roan quickly answered. 'Creating something from zero without any previous experiences or information is not easy. Now, don't bother me unless it is important.'

Rean bitterly smiled and repeated Roan's words to Kentucky.

"Eh?" Kentucky obviously didn't know what to do. "I'll warn you. I cultivated in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm for a long time for us to reach the Space-Time Realm. I'm definitely not going back to cultivate more."

Rean shook his head. "It's not necessary. Since Roan will work on that pill, what about you and I take a trip?"

Kentucky's eyes lit up. "A trip? Where?"

"Heavens," Rean answered with a sly expression.

Kentucky immediately lost his drive. "What?! Are you planning to go there, just the two of us? Without Roan nearby, we won't be able to access the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. That also means no access to the Circuitry Teleport Formation. Wouldn't that be too risky?"

"Definitely," Rean answered. "But if we are trying to save time, then we can't just stay still while Roan is working. Come on, it might be fun." Rean then took flight and opened a Spatial Gate. At the same time, he warned Kentucky. "If you really stay still here, I'm pretty sure Roan will find a way for you to go out training or make you cultivate even more."

*Zush!*

Kentucky instantly appeared on Rean's side. "Heavens, right? Suddenly, I feel like it might be a really fun place to go."

"Hahaha!" Rean laughed, and the two birds entered the Spatial Gate. Now that they know exactly where Futuxei lives, it would be easy to return in the future.

Meanwhile, In the Underworld, the Underworld Relic was being used in a world-changing fight between Elder Devils. Rui, the leader of the Light Devil Clan, was facing another three Elder Devils, including Mephisto.

Mephisto was the previous owner of the Underworld Relic, while RUi was the owner now after the twins won the competition for him. However, during the invasion of the Angel Race, it was found out that Rui was an ally of the Angels... which was a lie. In fact, Mephisto, Rui, and a few other Elder Devils had a plan to give a huge blow to the Angels instead.

Yet, because the Angels retreated, the plan failed before it could even start since they needed more Archangels to arrive in the Underworld.

Naturally, they retreated because the twins helped eliminate all the Soul Worms and went back to help put things back on track in the Heavens.

*Boom!*

An enormous explosion of Dark Elements and Divine Origin Energy blasted Mephisto's group away from Rui, who was using the relic. Rui then gasped for air as he looked hateful at the Devils. "Mephisto, why are you doing this? That was your plan!"

Mephisto didn't seem to care. "Indeed. However, it didn't work. You can't expect me to leave the Underworld Relic in your hands now that the Angels went back, right? After all... you aren't exactly a Devil, but some second hand product."
