Chapter 1855: The Sect"s Sizes
"Anyways, we have 783215 Destiny Points at the moment," said Rean. "We could save it, no?"
Roan immediately shook his head, telling him, "No. We need to buy the Dimensional Realm Upgrade to increase its size."
"True..." Rean didn"t insist, though.
With that, they immediately selected the option as the system asked the same question as before.
[Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Level 5 - 500000 Destiny Points]
[Confirm Purchase?]
"Yes!" The twins quickly agreed.
[Destiny Points: 783215]
[Purchase confirmed. The upgrade will last one week. Initiating the upgrade.]
Immediately, the twins saw a large chunk of their Destiny Points disappear. At the same time, the spatial barrier around the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm reacted. The entire land trembled as the spatial barrier began to stretch outwards. The twins didn"t stay there and watch, though. There was a war to command, and the upgrade would happen on its own. Besides, they couldn"t buy anything else before it was completed anyway, so they went back outside.
As mentioned before, the war against Nascent Soul Realm cultivators was easy, so nothing happened during the week they waited for the upgrade to finish other than total domination. With that being said, the twins returned to the Dimensional Realm as soon as Sister Orb called them.
[Rean, Roan, the upgrade is finished.]
*Vup, vup!*
The twins appeared inside the dimensional realm, and the first thing they noticed was the spatial barrier... Or the lack of it, to be more specific. However, it wasn"t that the spatial barrier wasn"t there. Instead, it was so far away that it was hard to make out. With that, their senses quickly connected to the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm as they probed the size of the place.
"Wow! It expanded ten times in area!" Rean couldn"t help but feel amazed by that. "3000 kilometers from one end to another. Now, that"s a lot of s.p.a.ce for the System Sect."
Celis, who was left inside the Dimensional Realm while it was upgrading, immediately nodded in response. "Indeed. The power of the Soul Gem System is really incredible. In any case, I already spread my saplings all over the rest of the extension to increase the Demon Beast Forest"s size... or so I wanted to."
Rean and Roan nodded after hearing that. There was one place in the Dimensional Realm where it would be complicated to grow the Demon Beast Forest. "It seems like we have a sea now?"
Sister Orb immediately appeared as she replied. [Yep. It should come as no surprise that the Soul Gem System is increasing in size in order to imitate a real planet. To be more specific, a world where life can thrive. If you pay close attention, the rest of the land also has a lot of rivers that now end in that sea. It"s just that they have no life whatsoever at the moment.]
So far, only the 250 kilometers of forest before the previous upgrade had been filled with demon beasts. By now, Celis had already allowed them to expand their territories since they had been quite packed before. Then again, they were far from enough to fill the new Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Not to mention that none of them were aquatic demon beasts, so the sea was completely empty.
"Well, that will have to wait," said Roan. "If we suddenly start capturing demon beasts from the land and sea without stop, it"ll become quite obvious how big our Dimensional Realm is. At the moment, others think that we simply have a slightly bigger dimensional realm than most. Some of the partic.i.p.ants even think their own dimensional realm is bigger than ours."
Rean agreed with Rean, replying, "We need to wait until the war is over and we"re alone to bring the System Sect disciples out of the Dimensional Realm to help with this task. We have almost ten thousand disciples, after all."
"Ahem..." Kentucky suddenly intervened, telling them, "It seems like you two haven"t paid much attention to the numbers of the sect during these decades."
Rean and Roan looked at Kentucky and asked, "What do you mean? Could it be that too many of them died during the war? We would have noticed that."
Kentucky shook his head, replying, "With the sect"s resources, do you think it"s easy for them to die when they"re put against enemies of similar strength? Some of the sect members did die as it"s a war, sure. However, the death rate hasn"t even reached 4%."
Rean pondered a bit before saying, "Oh! Don"t worry. There are a lot of people who wish to join the sect. Of course, due to the limitations of the Dimensional Realm, their cultivations have to be at least an entire realm below ours. However, we won"t enlist them before the war is near its end, so they don"t count at the moment."
Roan nodded in agreement. "Indeed. We will think about their numbers later."
Kentucky could only sigh in response. "You two are really helpless..." Kentucky, who was in his human form, then moved his hand to his waist as he told them, "Kids! Children! Families! After two decades, just how many of our sect members do you think got into a relationship and had their own offspring? How much s.e.x do you think the cultivators of our sect have had so far? We have a lot of children, with a small amount of them being born over eighteen years ago, so they"re already adults. It seems like you haven"t paid attention to this point at all."
Rean was taken back for a moment after hearing that before becoming silent. "Now that I think about it, it does make sense."
Roan nodded. "It"s because we kept the entire sect outside during the war that we didn"t notice that. If they were inside the Dimensional Realm, we would have noticed the increase in numbers. Besides, I"m pretty sure that quite a few of the sect members who have families now found a partner outside the sect."
[Well, if you want a rough number, I can give you that.] Sister Orb was always the one responsible for the cla.s.ses happening in the sect, so she knew the new kids as well. [We have around 1300 new ones. However, none of them have been added to the sect itself yet. Due to the war, the families knew they couldn"t bother you with it. But then again, I doubt they"ll just simply leave their families behind once you ask everyone to head back into the Dimensional Realm.]
