Chapter 1864: Give It a Try

Because every competitor of each power returned to their own elders and leaders after the spatial gates, only the Jamai Sect knew that the twins did not come out. Of course, the Rambram Sect and the other three were included, but they knew how to keep their mouths shut since it was the Rambram Sect that promoted the competition for the Free Continent.

With that said, Folesve called the Jamai Sect over and began an interrogation. Or, to be more specific, he and his Rambram Sect were checking if the twins were within one of the competitor's Pocket Dimensional Realms. After all, the twins' cultivation was two entire realms below the Space Bending Realm's participants. It wouldn't be a problem for them to keep the twins inside.

The Rambram Sect arranged for many of their Void Tempering Realm members to enter those Jamai Sect's Pocket Dimensional Realms. Olly, Luina, and the other participants obviously didn't complain at all. After all, they didn't want to get on the Rambram Sect's bad side. At the same time, Olly and Luina insisted that they didn't know, as well as how they also saw with their Divine Senses when the twins entered their own Dimensional Realm, and that was about it.

Since they were in the Space Bending Realm, Soul Binding Contracts were useless, so trying to force the truth out wouldn't work either.

Eventually, the Rambram Sect finished checking all the Dimensional Realms and confirmed that the twins were present in any of them. They wanted to punish the Jamai Sect for that. Unfortunately, there wasn't any rule about a participant in the competition leaving on their own accord after it was over. It's just that they never expected that to happen under their sight. That's why they couldn't really punish the Jamai Sect.

Of course, if the Rambram Sect wanted to, they could punish the Jamai Sect. In fact, they could wipe the entire sect out, and no one would complain. That was the difference in power. Yet, they refrained from doing it as such a thing would definitely make them suspicious.

"Listen up. You guys must stay quiet about the twins' disappearance. To make sure that will happen, all of you will remain in the Rambram Sect for a while. I'll arrange for some members of my Rambram Sect to head to the Jamai Sect's location and pass the news. They can start their plans to move to the new continent on their own," said Folesve. "If you know anything about the twins' whereabouts, inform me immediately."

Ross and the rest of the Jamai Sect members could only accept it. At least they weren't going to be killed now.

It was then that someone raised his hand. "Sir, what about the Jhiod Continent? We got the twins from there, so the people in the Jhiod Sect might know more about it." Sure enough, they would head back to Jhiod.

Folesve nodded, replying, "We already expected that, so we sent some people there. It will take some time to finish an investigation, though." Folesve then looked at the participants of the competition. "Which one of you has learned anything about those Circuitry Formations?"

Franga immediately raised his hand in response. As mentioned before, he was the best at formations when the twins took control over the Walfure Region. With that being said, Rean and Havek did impart to him quite some knowledge about the Circuitry Formation's runes. "I learned quite a bit, sir. They had me set up some of the antennas that helped with the earlier conquest."

"However..." Franga couldn't help but sigh as he continued, "They had never let me learn anything about the core components. They were all inside the System Sect, and they were very well protected against prying eyes. Since it was the middle of the competition and betrayal would be punished, no one really tried to break in to check them. Of course, I'll pass everything I know. Also, Rean and Havek left behind a lot of the formations responsible for the communication, and I'm pretty sure I can make a rudimentary version of the communication formation if I try."

Folesve was happy to hear that. He then looked at one of the elders of his Rambram Sect, who nodded and went to Franga's side. "Alright, gather anyone else you know here that also learned anything, and let's depart. We're going to take a very good look at the Circuitry Formations, antennas, and all the other things Rean and Havek left behind."

"Yes, sir!" Franga didn't waste time as he knew the Jamai Sect Master wouldn't stop him either. If everything went well, he might even be accepted into the Rambram Sect itself, which would be a much better option.

Luina looked at that and couldn't help but think, 'Just like Rean mentioned. They will go after the Circuitry Formations they left behind. I hope he doesn't regret it later.'

Meanwhile, Kentucky kept flying on the side of the continental barrier, using Fluki to check whether there was a place they could traverse. However, Fluki insisted that all points had Continental Barrier Spirits living inside.

After flying for several days, Rean finally asked Kentucky to stop. "Alright, we're getting nowhere. We can pretty much assume that everywhere without a formation protecting the continental barrier will have Continental Barrier Spirits living inside."

Fluki didn't just check whether there were spirits inside or not. He also checked why there were that many. "The continental barrier in the center of the Realm of Gods is way more powerful than the others. I'm pretty sure most of the Spirits living here benefit from the power of the barrier itself somehow. That's why we don't find many outside the center but do here."

Kentucky pondered over it for a bit before asking, "Fluki, can't you just pretend to be another spirit living there and pass by?"

Fluki nodded, saying, "I can. It was Rean that wanted to not let anyone notice we passed through here. Once we're inside the barrier, his Divine Sense and Light bending skill won't work anymore. I think he's overthinking it, though. Since there are so many spirits here, why would they pay attention to me?"

Rean could only sigh in response. "Alright, I might be a little too paranoid. It's just that we're talking about an incredibly large power from the center of the Realm of Gods. Though, if there's no other choice, we can only give it a try."
