Death… And Me

Chapter 2496 Through the Temporal Path

Chapter 2496  Through the Temporal Path

Several days later, Rean and Kentucky arrived at the protection formation covering the entire Temporal Path Entrance. Rean, of course, was using his Goku appearance. "Stop!"

As soon as Rean and Kentucky appeared, a Late Stage Space-Time Realm Divine Sense appeared while a Demon Beast came flying in their direction. That wasn't the only one, though. There were even Divinity Realm-level Divine Senses there.

Rean and Kentucky just waited there. Finally, the Demon Beast warned Rean and Kentucky. "This area is out of limits. Return from where you came."

Rean then took a token out before tossing it to the Demon Beast. "We know the rules, but this Token should prove our identity."

The Demon Beast analyzed it and immediately identified Flinyu's mark. "Senior Flinyu?" Still, he was curious why he didn't receive any message regarding Rean's group arrival. Due to the importance of the Temporal Path Entrance, everything was usually reported, so such random arrivals were not normal. The Demon Beast then used his communication badge and tried to acquire confirmation regarding Rean and Kentucky... or Goku and Kenny.

It took a few minutes, but the Demon Beast got its answer. "So you have a free pass, uh? Follow me."

Rean and Kentucky were then added to the Formations' exceptions and got to pass through it without being repealed. Inside, there were several other types of formation, mainly focused on slaughter and weakening. Well, Rean and Kentucky already expected that. Instead, they took the chance to ask the Demon Beast something else. "How's the situation inside the Temporal Path?"

The Demon Beast glanced at them and began to speak. With Flinyu's token, he had to be helpful. "I don't know what you want to do, but you better be careful. The Temporal Path isn't exactly safe at the moment, as all three Realms are keeping an eye inside. Also, the Vruves seem to be making a few movements, so try to avoid getting involved with anyone from that group."

Rean nodded. "Anything else we should pay attention to?"

"Yes," the Demon Beast continued. "Although the three Realms are wary of each other, we still have some communication between us all. As long as it isn't anything difficult to do, it would be better to simply send a message to wherever you want to go."

"Even during the war, you kept communication with both sides?" Kentucky found it strange.

The Demon Beast expected that question. "This war is ongoing, and we don't know when it will be over. However, it is true that we hold the advantage. That said, it would be better if the Devils simply surrendered and returned to the Underworld. Just in case, we keep the communications ON to try and reach a consensus. Of course, the one thing we can't give up is to have the Devils out of the Realm of Gods."

Rean shrugged his shoulders. "Living Souls are just too important to the Devils. Unless they get completely crushed, they will definitely not give up their territory in the Realm of Gods."

"Precisely," the Demon Beast agreed. "Well, it is better to try than do nothing, right? Who knows?"

Rean and Kentucky passed through several more checkpoints and formations. Finally, they were able to see the gigantic entrance to the Temporal Path, which looked basically like a huge Spatial Gate. Yet, that was a size and power that even a Peak Stage Divine Realm couldn't create. Rean and Kentucky could feel a high concentration of Dark and Light Elements coming from it, showing its connection with the Heavens and Underworld.

The Demon Beast passed Rean and Kentucky to a formations master, who led them to the front of the Temporal Path entrance. "Here we are. Be aware that we can't guarantee anyone's safety once you get inside. Even our messengers don't come back once in a while, especially the ones sent to the Underworld. The Realm of Gods and the Formations Guild will not be held responsible for what happens to you two."

"Thank you, sir." Rean smiled upon hearing that. "We already know the risks. Kenny, let's go."

Rean immediately flew inside the Temporal Path, and Kentucky followed behind with a bitter expression. Inside, Rean and Kentucky were surprised to see how unstable the Temporal Path was. The last time they came here, they were disguised as Devils and went to the Underworld. The Temporal Path looked several times safer than it does now. "It's almost like the Pseudo-Temporal Path we entered before..." Kentucky commented.

Rean nodded and increased his pace. "But it is still safe enough to be used daily. Besides, considering just how much Spatial Power is generated, I don't see this Temporal Path coming down anytime soon."

Although traveling a second through the passage is the same as traveling hundreds of years outside, the distance between the three Higher Realms was truly enormous. It took several hours for Rean and Kentucky to finally few a difference in the concentration of Light Element. "It seems the distance we need to travel in this path is also very difference from the time we spent using the Pseudo-Temporal Path..."

"That's because their connection points are different," Rean answered. Suddenly, Rean grabbed Kentucky, making both of them stop. His Light and Divine Sense Bending Skill were both activated, so no one could see them.

Kentucky knew why and looked in a certain direction. There wasn't anything there, but Kentucky wasn't an idiot. Rean must have found something. "Enemies?"

Rean nodded. "They are concealing their presence just like you and me. I can feel their Life Forces. There is a group spread wide and hiding there, but they don't seem to have noticed us." Inside the Temporal Path, Natural Spatial Perception doesn't work due to the Spatial Power passing through here. Divine Sense does work but is extremely limited. That's why that group was spread, trying to cover as much distance as possible.

Too bad that Life Force was something they couldn't hide... from Rean! Rean had to get much closer than the Divine Sense Range or Natural Spatial Perception to notice it, but in this place, he could see further than anyone else due to this trait. "Follow me. They are spread, but there is a gap."

Without that hidden group realizing it, an invisible Rean and Kentucky passed through that gap and continued on their way to the Heavens. "There weren't Angels," Rean commented after confirming they were far enough.

"Vruves?" Kentucky couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe," Rean nodded. "Or perhaps cultivators from the Realm of Gods, too. Who knows? Let's keep going. This probably won't be the only group."
