Chapter 2576 The Living Soul Devil
The twins didn\'t mind. "That\'s obviously not a problem."
Soon, an Initial Stage Space-Time Realm cultivator entered the room. He bowed respectfully to Gragatou before turning to the twins. "I shall hold the Totem in the meanwhile. Can you send me inside? Don\'t worry, I won\'t move while in there and I won\'t touch anything."
The twins weren\'t really concerned about that. After all, with Sister Orb in charge, no one can do anything while inside the Dimensional Realm. "Please do not fight the Spatial force when you feel it," Rean warned the guy.
*Zush!*
Immediately, the cultivator disappeared together with the Totem. Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, the cultivator appeared in a barren land. Naturally, it was very far away from the place where everyone lived, pretty much on the other side of the planet. Sister Orb also restricted that cultivator\'s Divine Sense from going further than a few hundred kilometers and kept everything dark for his vision.
The guy abided by his words. He simply pulled the Totem out and used his Divine Energy to create a small source of light. He seemed to know what was supposed to happen, and after checking the state of the Totem, he nodded with a satisfied expression. \'Seems like the runes are already absorbing this Dimensional Realm\'s aura. It\'s just a question of time now,\' he thought. He didn\'t notice, but at the same time, Sister Orb was fully focused on the Totem. She had to analyze it and then alter the Dimensional Realm so that the aura from inside couldn\'t be used to find the Dimensional Realm and, consequently, the twins. [Everything here is fine. The guy just sat down and is waiting for the day to pass. It can be over in a moment if you just accelerate time in here.]
Rean immediately refused. \'No. It is better others don\'t know about our Dimensional Realm\'s ability. We will just wait a day, and then it is over.\'
Gragatou then sat on a chair in the same room. A few moments later, a female cultivator entered, bringing a pot of tea for him. She respectfully bowed to the man and served him. She also poured another two extra cups, obviously for Rean and Roan.
"You should give it a try. It\'s Janfen Herb Tea. It\'s quite expensive even for Space-Time Realm cultivators like you two," Gragatou invited.
Rean was the first to step forward, and Roan followed. There was no need to worry about poisoning since Rean had his Light Element Purification ability. "This is truly good," Rean couldn\'t help but comment. He felt Divine Energy feeling his meridians, and it had a soothing sensation. If someone below the Space-Tiem Realm were to drink it, they would definitely see good benefits, growing the lower the cultivation is.
Roan just enjoyed his tea without saying anything. It was as if neither side wanted to talk more than necessary. However, Rean remembered something he heard from Luan, so he decided to ask. "Oh, right! Senior Gragatou, would you mind answering a question?"
Roan already knew what Rean was going to ask, so he also paid attention.
"As long as it is nothing improper, it shouldn\'t be a problem," Gragatou nodded. "It\'s about the Living Soul Devil," Rean started. "I heard that thing escaped the Realm of Gods. But then again, I find it a little strange. That thing needs Living Souls from living people. It absorbs their souls without killing them to increase its power, making it different from normal Soul Devils who use Dead Souls. So, my question is: Did it really run away? It needs souls, after all." Gragatou narrowed his eyes for a moment and then sighed. "To be honest, there was a conversation between the Semi-Celestials if we should be allowed to take it down. That\'s how problematic that creature is. However, as you can imagine, the Semi-Celestials of the Underworld refused. After all, that Living Soul Devil was buying their Devil Races the necessary time during this war in our Realm of Gods."
Rean and Roan didn\'t seem surprised. "It would be weird if they had allowed. After all, it was them who released this thing."
"Exactly," Gragatou knew that too. "Fortunately, there was no need for us to take action in the end. That Living SOul Devil had some kind of sensorial ability that could tell if Divinity Realm experts were approaching. However, it didn\'t know our Realm of Gods very well. During one of its escapades, it entered the Closaram Mountain Range in the Turdom Continent."
"That place is known for the weird res that can be found there, the Closaram Ore," Gragatou recounted the events. "This ore, when in big quantities, has a property to completely nullify all kinds of senses, even impairing one\'s normal vision. Natural Spatial Sense, Divine Sense, Soul Sense, you name it. It doesn\'t work in there. In the end, it seemed to also block the Living Soul Devil\'s senses of danger."
Rean felt quite interested in that Ore and made a mental note to acquire some in the future. "Is it something rare?"
Gragatou shook his head. "No. It is pretty cheap, actually. Other than this weird ability, it is brittle and weak, hard to mold into anything, and very ugly. Simply put, unless you gather hundreds of tons for its effect to take place, they are quite useless. The Closaram Mountain Range occupies almost the entire Turdom Continent, so you can imagine just how much of it you can find there."
Roan wasn\'t interested in that, though. "So, the Devil was not able to sense the Realm of Gods\' forces approach and was finally trapped, correct?"
"Yes," Gragatou nodded. "But it did escape in the end."
