Chapter 1506: Down We Go
Roan immediately noticed something off when Rean mentioned the phrase "second time." "Formation? Second time? Are you saying..."
Rean nodded, saying, "There is no doubt. What we have under us is definitely a natural formation. The runes are obviously unlike the runes we saw in that formation back in Sunkan Planet. However, there are a few points in the runes of a natural formation that are unmistakable. This is absolutely a natural formation."
Kentucky couldn"t help but ask after that, "Does that mean it also affects time? The one we entered back then accelerated time ten times, after all."
Roan pondered over it for a bit before saying, "Time and s.p.a.ce are related. If you want to accelerate time, you must meddle with s.p.a.ce." He then looked at Luan and asked, "Your affinity is s.p.a.ce. Can you feel the presence of spatial powers in the formation below?"
Luan immediately shook his head, telling Roan, "Sorry, dad. I can"t. Was I supposed to?"
Roan shook his head as well. "No. Also, there"s no need to apologize if you didn"t do anything wrong. Anyways, you"re certain you can"t feel any s.p.a.ce powers, right?"
Luan nodded, saying, "Yes. I really can"t feel anything like that... but I"m not really sure what I should feel."
Roan was satisfied with that. "No problem. Even if you"re wrong, it"s not your fault." Following that, Roan looked at Rean and Kentucky, saying, "Alright, so there"s probably no time acceleration or something in there."
Rean agreed with Roan, nodding as he told Kentucky, "Kentucky, go down slowly."
Kentucky nodded in response, but he couldn"t help but ask, "Don"t you feel like this is a bit weird?"
"What do you mean?" Rean and Roan asked at the same time.
Kentucky then explained, "I mean... has no one found this place before? Our Divine Sense bending skill can"t capture any Divine Sense. However, even though we moved into several different paths and took a few hours to arrive, it"s not like this is that hard to find. Considering how long this place has existed, I wonder why there isn"t anyone else here. Is it really just the white powder? Surely we aren"t the only ones who can just fend it off, right?"
Rean and Roan had to admit Kentucky"s words made sense. "Could it be that it"s because of the natural formation that no one found this place?"
Kentucky couldn"t move too quickly because this was the source of the white powder. The concentration here was almost as high as the time the intensity of the Salt Sweep was at its highest. Even the bubble and the Dark Element around them could only barely keep up with the white powder pa.s.sing through them.
Eventually, Kentucky landed on the ground, which gave Rean the chance to take a look at the natural formation"s runes. "I see..." Seeing the runes by himself was several times better than just hearing the description from Luan.
At the same time, Sister Orb"s words resounded in his ears. [I can finally feel this formation.]
Rean nodded, saying, "I know. Look at these runes. The formation was being concealed. It"s not the work of a cultivator but part of the natural formation itself. I have to admit that even for something natural, the arrangements are really an eye-opener."
Rean then looked at Luan, Roan, and Kentucky. "This formation has a concealment effect. Not only that but there"s also an illusory effect, which is far more powerful. Let alone us, I doubt even cultivators much stronger than us would find it extremely hard to find this place. That"s most likely the reason no one found it before."
Roan was surprised to hear that, asking, "Are you saying this natural formation is at the Divine level?"
Rean nodded, replying, "There is no doubt. Not only did it reach the Divine level, but it"s probably at a very high stage too. I"ll be honest, it shouldn"t be far from a G.o.d-level formation as it reminds me of the formation in the Huring Sacred Floating Land. This formation doesn"t lose out to that."
Back when the twins arrived at the Huring Sacred Land, Sister Orb told them that the formation that kept the Sacred Land floating was at the G.o.d-level. That"s why Rean was able to make a comparison. "If I"m not wrong, I would put this formation to be at the Divine Peak-level or somewhere very close to it."
Naturally, Kentucky could also tell why they were able to do it. "So it"s because we followed Luan"s eyes that we got to get here."
Roan nodded, saying, "Luan"s eyes simply see Energy and Elements other than normal vision."
Luan confirmed Roan"s words. "Dad is right. I didn"t pay attention to the surroundings with the normal pupils in my eyes. Instead, I used only my Divine Energy Pupils to follow the current of white powder, just like dad asked."
Rean sighed in wonder. "I"m becoming quite jealous of your eyes. This formation not only conceals itself, but its illusory power also affects one"s senses. Roan, Kentucky, and I didn"t pay attention to anything as we simply let you guide our way. But even until now, our Divine Sense can"t detect anything."
Kentucky and Roan agreed with Rean. Their Divine Senses were fully spread, but the land didn"t seem to have anything different.
Roan then asked the part he was most concerned about. "Rean, is the formation the one responsible for the white powder?" He had to ask that. After all, if the natural formation didn"t create the white powder, there was still a chance that this place was being protected by someone.
Rean began to walk around in the formation as Kentucky and Roan followed him to keep the Dark Element protecting the group. After a few hours of investigation, Rean finally reached a conclusion. "I don"t think this formation is responsible for the white powder. Something deep below this ground is creating it instead. I just don"t know if it"s a natural phenomenon or if it"s someone else doing it."
Roan and Kentucky nodded after that. That meant they still might find some enemy. Then again, they came to this place aware that they might not be the only ones here.. "Well, down we go."
