Chapter 2731 Similar Flow
Once again, they flew while Sonzei and Fafa showed the way. Rean constantly asked if he was seeing something out of the norm, which puzzled Sonzei. Nonetheless, Sonzei confirmed that everything was normal.
The reason Rean kept asking is because the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm"s last upgrade. With the absorption of the Fragments and the appearance of the Integration Pillar, the other Fragments near the twins" locations that they haven"t acquired yet might react somehow. Yet, so far, nothing seemed to have changed.
Flying at Fafa"s speed took them almost two days to arrive as the Southwest Island. Sure enough, it looked pretty much the same as the previous one. A Ring of Waters from both sides circulated around it while the Mirror Sea opened a gap to fit the Floating Island in.
"This is it, Rean," Sonzei and Fafa spoke as they landed on the Island. "As you can see, it is pretty desert here."
Rean nodded and spread his Divine Sense all around. Compared to the previous one, this Island indeed have pretty much nothing. Nonetheless, he could still see a few Demon Beasts and Cultivators hidden in some places.
Following that, Rean opened his cultivation and allowed his Divine Sense to be sensed by those lower-level experts. "All of you, I"m taking this Island. Some weird things are about to happen, so I can"t guarantee your safety at all. If you don"t want to get caught in the mess, you better leave this place. I"ll give you one hour."
Everyone in the Island froze as they felt Rean"s cultivation. Most of them didn"t even know the s.p.a.ce-Time Realm existed, let alone feel its pressure on their bodies. They were all scared of their wits and immediately took flight, flying away as fast as they could... with some exceptions.
Rean saw that and shrugged his shoulders. There are always those who think they can change misfortune into an opportunity. Since he didn"t force any of them to leave, they decided to try their luck and see what was going to happen. "Well, I gave them one hour, so let"s wait."
Rean"s group then proceed further into the Island as Rean communicated with the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. "Luan, are you busy?"
Luan was training on his own when he heard the message. "Not really, Uncle Rean. Do you need anything?"
"Yes," Rean answered. "Please come out and take a look at this weird artifact they call an Island. Perhaps you can see through it. My Divine Sense can"t go past its sh.e.l.l."
*Zush!*
Luan instantly appeared on the outside world, looking at the Ring of Waters with his Divine Sense. "What a weird phenomenon."
Rean waved to him. "Here, here. We need to go down. Just follow me."
Rean and Kentucky easily opened a tunnel all the way to the artifact until they were barred by that artifact. Just like before, their powers could do nothing against its pristine smooth surface. "This is the one. Can you see anything?"
Luan changed his view as he activated his Sacred Eyes. Surprisingly, he could indeed see through it in his elemental view. "Hum... It is pretty easy to see through it. There seems to be some kind of source of Water Element and Energy inside."
He looked in two different directions before explaining. "There are two streams of Water Element and Energy connected to this source. One stream is entering this source while the other stream is leaving it, moving in another direction."
"Which directions are they coming from and going to?" Rean asked.
Luan quickly pointed the directions, which confirmed Rean"s suspicion. "Yes, no doubt these streams are coming and going to the two nearest Island of the same type. Kentucky, seems like you were right about the link between the Islands."
"Can you stop this stream?" Kentucky asked.
Rean pondered a bit. "It should be possible as I mentioned. However, it also depends on the strength of Water Element and Energy of these streams. Luan, show me what you are seeing with your Divine Sense."
"Yes, Uncle Rean." Luan quickly used his Divine Sense to depict his view. Rean a.n.a.lyzed the two currents and was quite impressed. "How can be there so much energy and elements and I can"t feel them at all?"
"Show me too!" Kentucky asked, and Luan shared the same view with him. "Wow! These streams are enormous! There was supposed to be all kinds of natural phenomenons happening several thousands of kilometers around this Island with these Water Elements and Energy arriving and leaving. Yet, everything is quite calm."
"Indeed," Rean couldn"t agree more. It was then that Luan pointed something out. "Pay attention to these current, Uncle Rean. Focus on the Spatial Energy of what I"m showing you."
Rean focused for a moment and finally understood. "I see... No wonder we can"t feel any of this going around. The connection between the Islands is happening behind the Fabric of s.p.a.ce. It is as if the Islands are connected through some weird Spatial Gates. Naturally, they cause no ripples in their surroundings."
Rean then faintly smiled. "That makes things easier. I know just the formation to completely cut this flow."
Rean immediately disappeared from that cave they had opened, reappearing outside. Following that, hundreds of materials appeared all around him, as well as a few Formations experts, including his Master. "Do you understand what we need to do? Master, help coordinate everyone."
Droman nodded. "Sure... but why do you need to stop the Spatial Flow of this place? It will need a lot of Divine Energy, you know?"
"It"s fine," Rean didn"t mind. "Divine Stones are enough to charge the formation. For now, I just want to check the consequences of the formation to the Islands."
Back on the Island, Fafa and Sonzei returned to the surface with Kentucky and Luan. "Senior Kentucky-"
"What did you say?" Kentucky glared at him.
"Ahem..." Sonzei bitterly smiled. "Great Kentucky..."
"That"s more like it," Kentucky finally smiled.
Luan sighed. "Don"t worry. You can just ignores these requests from Kentucky. He is just messing with you."
"Hahaha!" Kentucky laughed in response. "But it is still funny."
Suddenly, Luan narrowed his eyes. It was the first time Luan paid attention to Sonzei, so he hadn"t noticed it before. "Hum? Your body seems to have a similar flow of Water Elements and Energy. No wonder Uncle Rean was interested in you."
