Death... and me
chapter-2644

That release of power only lasted a few seconds before Lotiri came back to normal. "That's what I'm talking about. However, do not misunderstand. Not only do I look to be just a Nascent Soul Realm Loporrit, I'm indeed just that, a Nascent Soul Realm Loporrit."

"Then..." Rean gulped. "What was that power we felt just now? It went beyond any Divinity Realm expert we know of."

Lola was also curious. "Chief, you know what is this cultivation they were talking about?" When Lola met the experts from outside, they asked her about her cultivation, and she didn't know what they were talking about. Seems like it is still the case.

Lotiri then looked at Lola. "This is something from outside this world. We can't leave, so it matters little to us all. You don't need to worry about it. If you are truly curious, we are basically talking about our powers of control of Chaos Laws, just like I showed them a moment ago."

"Oh!" Lola finally understood. "Like this?"

She also seemed to release her power, and her Core Formation Realm cultivation immediately transformed. Now, when the twins felt it, Lola seemed to be an expert at the Divinity Realm. "But this isn't really our power..."

"Exactly," Loriti agreed. "That's why I said it doesn't matter to us."

Right after, Lotiri returned his attention to the twins' group. "This is what I meant by cultivation Chaos Laws. You can use the power of this world to surpass even these puny Divinity Realm experts you see tied over there."

Vanos and the others couldn't hear what Rean's group was talking about. However, they were able to feel Lotiri and Lola's power. Only now did they understand how idiotic their actions were in the past. They attacked someone stronger than any Divinity Realm Expert they knew about, including Vanos himself.

Rean took a deep breath and continued the questions. "So... you can use this world's Chaos Laws to increase your strength, is it? Yet, you aren't really that strong."

"Correct," Lotiri answered. "It means little to tell you this since no one can do anything to us in this place. Even those you call Semi-Celestials would get nothing but a beating from us. Fortunately for them, we have no intention of intervening in whatever you all came here for."

Of course, a power that could only be wielded in this Wonderland meant nothing since everyone would eventually leave. "Alright, we need to learn how to use Chaos Laws the same way you Loporrits do if we want to go deeper into this Wonderland, right?"

"Yes," Lotiri nodded. "What you did by using the Wonder Beasts is just the tip of the iceberg. Those beasts are nothing compared to the ones you will find deeper inside. The ones there don't really have any form. They are more like huge concentrations of Chaos Laws and Energy and can take any form. You won't even see it happening. Out of nowhere, a knife might appear pierced inside your body, and that knife is a Wonder Beast."

Lola added, "That's why we call this world Wonderland. Here, anything can happen. What is supposed to be liquid is solid, and what is supposed to not move while dead moves as if it were alive. Energy and laws that can take any shape and form, a world of wonders."

[That's to be expected,] Sister Orb commented. [If this place really has a connection with the Chaos Origin Source, the mix of Chaos Laws and Chaos Energy, which are the building blocks of the Universe, just like Yin and Yang, can truly become anything. Calling this place a Wonderland is truly a very fitting name. You must first understand how to use Chaos Laws the way the Loporrits do. Otherwise, I don't think you will have much of a chance of survival, let alone be free to cultivate and comprehend the laws for your quest.]

The twins agreed with her and quickly asked Lotiri. "How do we get skillful with Chaos Laws the same way as you Loporrits?"

Before Lotiri or even Lola could talk, another Loporrit jumped forward. It was Loriti's wife, Lila, who had been hearing everything until now. "In that regard, I'm more suited."

"What suited?" Lotiri quickly intervened. "We won't teach them nothing. They have to learn by themselves. Those are the rules."

"Stop being such an annoying Loporrit," Lila complained. "If you truly didn't want to teach them anything, you wouldn't have sent an airhead like Lola to receive these guys."

"Gramma, that's mean!" Lola obviously didn't like it.

Too bad that Lila ignored her. Lotori, too, fell silent before Lila continued. "You guys have your cultivation realms stored in your Dantians and Demon Cores or similar things, right?"

Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis nodded. That was pretty much the general rule outside this place.

"What you need to do is something similar. You need to create a Core... or Dantian, if you wish, of Chaos Laws and Chaos Energy. I'll just call core to be more simple. Anyway, I've opened my cultivation, so take a look with your Divine Senses."

The twins' group quickly took a look, and sure enough, they were surprised by what they saw. "It's half a Demon Core and... half something else?"

Lila smiled in response. "That's correct... but not entirely. You see, we Loporrits are not Demon Beasts. We are another type of beings. Anyway, that matters little. If you want to wield Chaos Laws and use them like we do, you will need to merge the Chaos Laws and Chaos Energy with your Dantians and Cores, creating a Pseudo-Chaos Core."

Roan pondered a bit and found a point in that explanation. "You said Pseudo-Chaos Core... It seems like this is what all Loporrits have. Does that mean there is something like a complete Chaos Core?"

Lila didn't expect that question, though. "Well..."

However, she saw Lotiri's eyes and gave up talking. "That's something for you to find yourselves. Anyway, there is no need to care about it now. First, focus on merging your Demon Cores and Dantians with Chaos Laws and Chaos Energy."
