Death... and me

The little boy then used his Divine Energy to guide the small eye in the chamber’s direction. However, all the inscriptions on the chains and the chamber itself shone with a dark light, trying to force the eye back. Seeing that, the little boy snorted in response. “Hmph! If it was back when I was captured, these inscriptions might have had the power to hold the Law-breaking Eye’s power. However, after all these years holding me here in place, these inscriptions have lost more than 90% of their power. Let’s see how long they can resist.”

The eye’s power immediately fought the inscriptions back after that. No, to be more precise, it was capable of easily destroying them as it slowly advanced. Lamanto and Mira looked at that with excitement, knowing that it was working.

Unfortunately, not everything went as planned. Just as the last inscriptions were about to break apart, a formation concealed under the chamber’s room suddenly activated. Following that, a powerful Divine Sense came out of it, saying, “You’ve underestimated me too much, Wekil.”

Right after, that Divine Sense interacted with the inscriptions on the chamber. As if time went backward, the previously destroyed inscriptions and runes began to appear once again. The little boy called Wekil couldn’t help but grit his teeth once he saw that.

“Braga, it’s not over yet. Don’t think I didn’t expect this much. You had always been extremely careful, so I was sure some extra measures were in place.” As soon as Wekil said that, the chamber shone with greater light, which entered the Law-breaking Eye in torrents. Sometime later, the eye seemed to gain even more power, destroying the dark runes and inscriptions faster than they recovered. It’s just that the difference wasn’t that big. At that speed, it would take days for Wekil to break through the inscriptions and runes. His power simply wouldn’t last that long.

The Divine Sense coming from the formation noticed that as well, saying, “Hmph, just wasting your time. I know very well how much energy you can spend fighting me. Not only that, all the energy you’re using right now to force the Law-breaking Eye forward will take tens of thousands of years to be recovered. I’m quite happy that I won’t need to care about you for a while.”

Wekil knew that Braga was right… or so he should. “Do you think so? Although your Divine Sense is here, it’s not like you can send your Divine Origin Energy through the formation. You have to rely on the Divine Origin Energy you left accumulating in this place. Hehehe! At this very moment, there are quite a few people taking it for themselves. Let’s see who’ll run out of energy first.”

Wekil then looked at Lamanto and the others, telling them, “You guys, immediately start cultivating. That will deplete this guy’s Divine Origin Energy even faster. Don’t worry. He can’t do anything to you directly.”

“Yes, ancestor!” Hearing that, Mira and the others didn’t waste time and started to cultivate. Not only were they happy to help their ancestor, but being able to cultivate with Divine Origin Energy was also a boon to them.

At first, that Divine Sense didn’t understand what Wekil was talking about. However, it didn’t take long to notice that the concentration of Divine Origin Energy was smaller than usual. Soon after, that Divine Sense spread out of the chamber’s room, reaching the entire Lost Star Realm, and eventually, the Divine Plane where the twins were located.

It was at that moment that the twins’ eyes opened as they felt a chill on their backs. Even though Divine Sense only showed blurred images in one’s mind, it could still be spread normally. That’s how the twins were able to judge the cultivations of the others around them. After all, they used the Divine Sense’s strength to tell how strong they were.

Once again, the stronger the Divine Sense, the more it shone when it struck the Divine Sense bending skill. However, because of the cultivation difference, no one else noticed it. In any case, that thing was terrifying in the twins’ eyes. ‘Wh-what kind of level is that?!’

Roan shook his head, saying, ‘I don’t know, but even the small white dragon that tried to kill Sally can’t possibly hold a candle to this guy. That’s just too strong.’

‘What do we do? Should we leave immediately? I have a bad feeling about this.’

Roan narrowed his eyes in response. He obviously didn’t want to waste even a second in this environment with infinite Divine Origin Energy. But then again, he also thought something wasn’t right.

Back in the chamber’s room, Braga immediately understood what the issue was. “What’s happening here? No one was supposed to gain access to this area. How did you do that?”

Wekil laughed out loud in response while he poured even more energy into the Law-breaking Eye. “Hahahaha! Did you forget I’m also well versed in formations? It took a very long time to prepare everything due to my limitations. However, I found a way to send the cultivators of this forgotten piece of shit land to enter the area where the Divine Origin Energy generator is located. The only problem was that I couldn’t allow too many of them in there. Otherwise, you would notice it. Give up, Braga. I’ll definitely leave this chamber, and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

Braga didn’t give up, though. “Is that so? Then, why do they all have a protection light around them? Do you think I’m an idiot? You did that so the cultivators in that plane wouldn’t fight each other. Instead, they would focus on cultivation.”

As soon as Braga said that, his Divine Sense acted on the light barrier protecting everyone in the Divine Plane. Obviously, everyone noticed that their barriers were gone, and the area had returned to its lawless state once again.

“What’s happening here?”

“But time’s not up yet.”

“The barrier suddenly disappeared out of nowhere.”

Seeing the barriers disappear, Rean and Roan immediately got up while Celis retracted his roots back to himself.. “It seems like cultivation time is over.”
