Death... and me
chapter-2626

Between cultivation, conversations, practice, and other ways of spending time, the day of the departure finally arrived. Rean and Roan went straight to the front of the building, where Landeau told them to wait for him. And they were quite early, just to make sure that guy wouldn't find an excuse to not bring them over. Sure enough, Landeau appeared not long after that, looking at the twins with a displeased expression. "Hmph! At least you know how to be on time. I'll send you into my Pocket Dimensional Realm. Stay put where I leave you, and don't go anywhere. If you try anything in my Pocket Dimensional Realm, I'll take you out and leave you behind straight away."

Different from the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, normal Pocket Dimensional Realms would need to use formations and other things to protect what is inside from visitors. Once someone was sent inside, it was even possible to refuse to leave by fighting against the Spatial Power. Of course, the twins had absolutely no intention of doing any of that.

The twins felt the Spatial Power pulling them and let it work as intended. A moment later, they appeared in an empty room with nothing inside. Not only that, it was quite small. "He wasn't joking about not liking us. There is barely space to sit on the ground."

Sister Orb then spoke from within the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. [Well, at least he isn't trying anything against you two. I can feel the presence of formations in this place. However, none of them is acting against you two. Just sit still and let him do the journey.]

The twins nodded before Landeau's voice echoed in the Pocket-Dimensional Realm. "Stay put. I believe it will take me around three days to arrive at the meeting point. Do not bother me unless it is extremely necessary."

Rean shrugged his shoulder and sat on the ground. Roan didn't have anything better to do either, so he did the same. During the next three days, no one said a single word, and Landeau didn't speak with them either. When it was getting close to four days since they entered this room, and the twins were about to ask, Landeau's voice echoed once again. "We are here. There are quite a lot of experts around from all Three Realms. Since I'm bringing you out, you will be considered to be part of my group. Try to not cause trouble until I can pass you to Kafan."

The twins immediately felt the pulling of Spatial Powers, allowing them to carry their bodies. Their visions blurred for a moment before they saw themselves out in space. Rean couldn't help but feel surprised. "That's quite a lot indeed..."

There weren't just a few tens or hundreds... No, there were tens of thousands! There were so many Divine Senses spread around that the twins couldn't even tell who they belonged to... except the higher level ones since they shined the most in the Divine Sense Bending Skill.

The twins then spread their own Divine Senses since everyone was doing it. Immediately, they caught the eyes of many Space-Time Realm experts. There were Angels, Devils, Humanoids, Demon Beasts, Angel Beasts, Devil Beasts, Spirits, you name it...

Everyone brought a lot of allies, and the lowest cultivation in the twins' Divine Sense seemed to surprisingly be Void Tempering Realm. That was very low cultivation, the time the twins could get rid of with a thought. Yet, the highest number was not Void Tempering but Space-Bending instead. It was still nothing in the twins' eyes, but the stronger you are, the safer you can be.

The twins looked close to them and saw that their own group was very small. The Essence Race did indeed send a few members, but they barelly reached a hundred. Quite a few curious eyes were looking at them. After all, everyone knows that the Essence Race is supposed to be blessed with unparalleled talent. Not to mention, most thought them to be dead, just to find out they had been hiding all this while.

Of course, no one made any move on them. With the danger coming from outside the Universe, internal strife would be a very idiotic thing to do. Of course, once they enter the Hidden Realm, there will probably be several fights for treasures, but that couldn't be avoided. Everyone wanted to get stronger for the exact same reason.

As Rean analyzed his surroundings with his Divine Sense, he counted the numbers as well. "There seems to be around two thousand Void Tempering Realm experts here."

Roan nodded. "The highest number, the Space-Bending Realm experts, are around fifty thousand. Pretty obvious that they are being used as cannon fodder."

"They know that," Rean added. "Semi-Celestials came to explore this place, and it is quite probable that most of them didn't even know Semi-Celestials existed. Yet, here they are. I'll be honest; I would be excited as well if I got this opportunity. As for how many will survive, that we will see."

Roan didn't seem to care about it. "Elemental Transformation Realm... Quite a few, indeed. There are more than four thousand of them."

Rean checked and agreed with Roan. "Seems like it. As for Space-Time... as expected of one of the rarest cultivations of the Universe. The total number doesn't reach five hundred."

"That's already a lot," Roan commented. "To enter the Space-Time Realm, one has to touch the laws, and this is not something that can be explained. Everyone has to do it in their own personal way. I wouldn't be surprised if there were less than a hundred here. However, the three realms seem to be taking this exploration very seriously."

The twins then focused on the most powerful Divine Senses, those belonging to the Divinity Realm experts. However, it was hard to determine their numbers. The twins' Divine Sense could detect Space-Time Realm experts. However, Divinity Realm cultivation was too high for their Divine Sense to detect unless the other part purposely made himself detectable, which usually no one did.

"Thirty Three," it was then that Landeau's voice reached their ears.
