Death... and me

chapter-2595
It wasn't just Qia and Calina that came out with their children. Rean and Roan also brought out quite a few experts from Earth. After all, the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm System Sect wanted to meet the System Sect in the Dragon Race territory.
Unfortunately, neither of them was allowed to enter the core of the communication system, so the Formations Masters from there had to come out. Nonetheless, a great experience was exchanged between them all. Rean and Roan agreed to stay another week, giving time to these many Formations Masters and several areas' experts from both sides to have a proper exchange.
Meanwhile, the twins returned to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to check another thing. Ever since they acquired the last Universe Foundation Fragment, they haven't spent the Destiny Points they acquired. Since they had some free time, it was just perfect to take a look. Naturally, Kentucky and Celis were there as well since they are connected to the twins.
"Sister Orb, how many Destiny Points do we have now?" Rean asked straight away.
[3333215 Destiny Points.]The twins nodded and immediately opened the Soul Gem System's Upgrade List. (Check the Auxiliary Chapter Zero for the full list.)
"There aren't many options available anymore. The only ones we can acquire are these:"
[Universal Cultivation Enhancement Level 4 - 2000000 Destiny Points]
[Soul Gem Blacksmith Workshop Upgrade Level 06 - 500000 Destiny Points]
[Soul Gem Alchemy Workshop Upgrade Level 6 - 500000 Destiny Points]
[Soul Gem Electrical Formations Repository Upgrade Level 5 - 100000 Destiny Points]
"That's all," Rean finished telling Kentucky and Celis about the options.Celis, obviously, immediately asked. "What are you even thinking about? Immediately buy the Universal Cultivation Enhancement Level 4!" The cultivation maniac wanted nothing more than to increase his cultivation speed.
Roan shook his head, though. "Think about it first, Celis. With our actual comprehension of laws, which one would we achieve first? Gathering enough Divine Origin Energy or Comprehending two entire first Sublaws? Don't forget we need to fully comprehend one Sublaw of each of our Major Laws before we can have a breakthrough."
"This..." Celis went silent straight away. Because of his race, he was already ridiculously fast at absorbing energy. Not to mention all the system's upgrades that he shared with the twins and all the available Divine origin Energy Cores. They all took Roan's Laws Pills, and they were able to comprehend their laws much faster, no doubt. However, law comprehension has always been a very, very slow process. Even without that Universal Cultivation Enhancement Upgrade, they would definitely accumulate enough Divine Origin Energy way before they finished comprehending the two Sublaws necessary.
There were two reasons for that. First, different from other cultivators, Rean's group didn't have to spend a single second converting Divine Energy into Divine Origin Energy. That's where the Divine origin Energy Cores came into play.
The second reason is that they all have to comprehend two major laws at the same time. If they want to advance to the Middle Stage of the Space-Time Realm, they will have to comprehend the first Sublaw of both Major Laws or no deal.
Putting it all together, their group truly has no need for an extra absorption upgrade if they can't really make any use of it. Not to mention that once Celis comprehends more of his Absorption Laws, his Energy Absorption Speed will be even more ridiculous.
Kentucky then pointed out. "Well, those are not all. The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Upgrade is also available, no? Not to mention the Yin Yang Cultivation Unbalance Domain."
Rean nodded. "You aren't wrong, but..."
[Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Upgrade Level 6 - 10000000 Destiny Points]
[Yin Yang Cultivation Unbalance Domain - 5000000 Destiny Points]
"Ten and Five Million Destiny Points is not something we will acquire anytime soon," Rean concluded.
[Do you perhaps want to hold onto these Destiny Points? You probably noticed it already. Each time you get a Fragment, the Destiny Points you receive as a reward always increase. Who knows? Perhaps you will get enough Destiny Points next time to make up for the Dimensional Realm Upgrade. Even if you don't hold it for the Dimensional Realm, you could do it for the Unbalance Domain. That one is guaranteed to be bought once you get an extra Fragment.]
Roan couldn't help but narrow his eyes. "Aren't we a little too low on Upgrade Options?"
[It's not that we have few options. It's just that you already bought many of the options that were previously available.]
"That's not what I meant," Roan corrected himself. "I'm talking about new Options. If we don't consider the last Upgrade, which was the Time Acceleration Formation, when was the last time anything new appeared?"
Everyone immediately thought about it. "It has been... hundreds of years... no?" Celis commented.
Let's not forget the system only acquired a Time Acceleration Formation as part of the Upgrades because of Hex. Otherwise, not even that one would be there.
"There have been no other quests either," Rean thought deeper. "Before, when we started to interact with the system, it would often add some quests not related to the Universe Foundation Fragments. Yet, we truly haven't got anything for even longer than the Upgrades."
Everyone looked at Sister Orb. "Could it be the system has some problem?"
[Problem... I can't see anything wrong, though. The only thing I can think about is that the system is being suppressed for some reason. Of course, as I said, I can't see anything wrong. This is just speculation.]
"There is no point thinking about it," Roan then gave up. "Let's just save the Destiny Points for the Unbalance Domain. Alright, everyone can go back from where they came."
Rean and the others nodded, ready to leave. However...
*Bzzzzzzz...*
It was at this moment that the Control Orb began to shine with White and Black Light. Following that, something flew out of it while the energy of the Control Orb was absorbed. Not even Sister Orb could tell what was happening
