Chapter 1374 - What Is This Thing?
Nevertheless, in the area where the elders saw the disciples disappearing, their disdain as to what happened to the elder of the Croste Clan only lasted a few moments. After all, they had another issue, which was the fact that Rean"s group had entered the Divine Plane.
"What now? I already informed my sect about what happened here," an elder of the Vanios Sect could not help but say.
"There isn"t much we can do. As you know, everyone is teleported randomly in the Lanqueas Continent once the Divine Plane is done." This time, it was the elder of the Jix Organization who said that.
All these elders had been enemies not long ago, helping their disciples acquire the third stage marks. But now that the Divine Plane had opened, they didn"t have a need to fight anymore. They could put their heads together to think about the twins" group and that demon beast who found out about the truth of the Lost Star Selection.
"I"m pretty sure the Croste Clan left some way of tracking those brats down. I definitely would if it was me."
"Indeed. However, we can"t risk it too much. It would be better if our disciples in the Divine Plane got rid of them."
"That"s complicated. The Divine Plane was always used for cultivation, after all. If they lost precious time cultivating while looking for those guys, they wouldn"t achieve the breakthroughs they need to achieve."
"He"s right. I also told my guild"s disciples that they should ignore everything and focus on cultivation. Only attack if attacked."
"Not to mention that at first, they wouldn"t be able to do anything to anyone else. You know how the Divine Plane works."
It was then that an elder mentioned, "But did you hear Opacli"s words before he died? He made sure the Soul Binding Contract"s clauses were written in a way that Zack and Zeck couldn"t avoid. However, it didn"t seem like those two suffered anything from breaking the contract."
"Hmph! There"s no way to avoid the contract. It was definitely Opacli"s mistake that left some opening in the clauses that allowed those guys to ignore it."
Yuan, the Lanqueas Sect Elder, shook his head as he said, "You all know just how important Feezing Star Liquid is for us. It"s an extremely rare material for Yin Energy cultivators. If it were you, would you leave any breaches in the contract those brothers could exploit?"
With that, everyone went silent. Sure enough, they would definitely not do something that stupid, especially with how fishy this ancient beast controlling method sounded. "Are you telling me that those brothers have a way to nullify the Soul Binding Contracts?"
Yuan nodded in response. "Yes." However, he also warned everyone. "It"s just that I"m not sure. Who knows? It might really have been a mistake from Opacli"s side. I strongly doubt that to be the case, though."
The elders there pondered in silence for a moment before they reached a conclusion. "We better contact our higher-ups and let them know about it. We must capture those brothers at all costs. Someone try to contact the Croste Clan as well. With Opacli"s death, there isn"t anyone left to send a message to them."
The Jix Organization elder nodded. "Leave it to me. My Jix Organization is the closest one to the Croste Clan. I"ll tell them to send someone to talk with them and try to understand more about those brothers. They said something about being lovers with Maeralya, and the only Maeralya I know is the princess of their clan. We need to learn more about it."
Eventually, they all agreed to that before they looked at the other cultivators in the area. Sure enough, they were all at a loss on what to do now that the portal had closed. All they could do was to wait and see what the elders of the top ten powers would do to survive the Light Element Waves and try to copy that.
However, those elders just snorted in response and immediately left together. They did have a way to survive. But they wouldn"t tell those people how it was done. First of all, if not because they knew the Light Element Wave would kill those people, they would have done it themselves. Those cultivators had seen too much already.
Meanwhile, in the Divine Plane of the Lost Star Realm, the twins and the other cultivators from the various powers appeared one after another. The s.p.a.ce was anything but big. It was possible to see the spatial barrier surrounding the area. Rean and Roan immediately recognized that since the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm had a similar barrier to separate it from the outside world.
All the cultivators that appeared in that Divine Plane then dropped to the ground as the portal was located on the ceiling of that plane. Rean"s group also noticed the same altar that was located on the third level of the Lost Star Realm. As mentioned before, the altar opened a portal around it, and it seemed that the other half of the altar was inside this place.
Rean then commented through the Soul Connection with Roan, "This place should span any more than a few dozen kilometers from one side of the plane to the other."
Roan agreed with him. "It"s still bigger than the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, though. I believe it"s around three times as big."
It was then that they received a message from Celis through Sister Orb. "Who cares about how big it is? Can"t you feel the Divine Origin Energy? Stop wasting time and start cultivating already. Open a pa.s.sage so that I can use my roots... no, forget making a pa.s.sage. Bring me out and let"s cultivate together!" Celis was obviously ecstatic with all the energy he could feel from the Dimensional Realm.
However, Rean and Roan had to first guarantee they were safe. After all, they appeared in this place together with the disciples from the other top ten powers. What if they all decide to attack their group?
"Wait!" It was then that Rean noticed something. "How come Celis is talking to us? The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm should be closed at the moment due to the dangerous situation we"re in."
Sister Orb immediately answered. [There"s nothing dangerous here. At least at this very moment, no one can attack you. Everyone here is pretty much immune to any damage.]
Only then did Rean and Roan notice that their bodies seemed to have a soft white glow over them.. It was very faint, so they only noticed it now. "What is this thing?"
