Death… And Me

Chapter 2505 What Is That?

Chapter 2505  What Is That?

After setting the direction, Rean immediately took flight. Yet...

"Senior, wait!"

Tabbris called his attention as he was leaving.

"Hum?" Rean looked back at him a few meters from the ground. "What is it?" He then thought about something. "I saved you, kid. However, that doesn't mean I'm going to be your guardian. That would kill the purpose of training in this place."

Tabbris quickly shook his head. "That's not it. I do want you to bring me with you, but that's because I want you to check something with me."

"Check something?" Rean was puzzled. "There shouldn't be anything here that your elders haven't told you yet. This Dimensional Realm's initial Regions are well mapped already."

Tabbris knew that. "Indeed. Yet, I simply couldn't identify that thing. That's why I was being chased by this Light Beast and my friends died. We found something that doesn't make much sense. Yet, many Light Beasts seemed to be protecting it. Would Senior mind going and checking with me? I'm powerless to get close to that place alone. My companions died, so I want to at least be able to tell the reason for that."

Rean pondered a bit and nodded in the end. 'Well, Kentucky's strength is enough for him to steamroll everything in this place, so he doesn't really need my help.' Finally, he looked at Tabbris. "Fine, let me see what is this thing you are talking about."

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Illusory World, Kentucky was perked above a huge tree while watching the surroundings. He wasn't alone, as a girl was sitting on his side. "Hum... the stability of Space in this place is truly impressive. I can't open Spatial Gates at all. There are places in the Realm of Gods where you can't open Spatial Gates, but I've never seen such a firm space before." said Kentucky.

The girl, obviously, was none other than Aelrie. "Well, if you think about it, you still haven't seen it. This is just an Illusory World. If we want to return, we can simply kill ourselves. By the way, why hasn't Rean arrived yet? If he had appeared in this region, he should have found this place already."

Kentucky used his connection with Rean to check his location. "Without a Spatial Gate, he definitely won't arrive anytime soon. He is truly far away at the moment."

"You can tell?" Aelrie asked with a surprised expression.

Kentucky just nodded. "We have our own methods. Also, he doesn't seem to be moving in our direction but somewhere else instead. Hum... Oh well, since he doesn't want to come, I guess I'll just go meet him. I can fly much faster than him anyway."

"Wait!" Aelrie stopped Kentucky. "How far is he?"

Kentucky pondered a bit after feeling his connection with Rean. "Considering the size of this Laoin Region, he is far enough for us to cross this Region at least a hundred times."

Aelrie sighed in response. "Then there isn't much of a reason to go. He is beyond the Dimensional Chasm, so we can't cross to meet with him."

"Dimensional Chasm? What is that?" Kentucky asked back.

Aelrie the explained. "It is exactly as the name implies. It is a Chasm that separates this side from the other side of the Illusory World. It is impossible to fly through it, and if you fall inside, you die... Well, not die, but get sent back to the entrance of the Azum Realm like all other Angels."

Aelrie then looked in the same direction as Kentucky. "Still, how the hell did he appear on the other side of the Dimensional Realm's Initial Regions? I've never heard of such a thing happening before. I'm sure he crossed the Illusory World Line in the same place as you and me."

Kentucky shrugged his shoulders. "If you don't have an answer for that, then I definitely can't answer it either. Well, that at least shows why he didn't bother flying in our direction. He probably found out about the Chasm."

Kentucky pondered a bit and decided to give up waiting for Rean. "Oh well, who cares? I'm going to explore on my own. I'm pretty sure Rean will fly to the depths of the Azum Dimensional Realm, so I guess I'll do the same."

Aelrie agreed with him. "Indeed. In that case, can I come with you? Otherwise, I'm just going to get bored waiting for you and Rean outside."

"Sure, jump on my back." Kentucky didn't mind. "Your cultivation is too low, so it would take too long to go deeper if I followed your pace. Just make sure to hold tight."

Aelrie smiled brightly and immediately jumped on Kentucky's back. Following that, Kentucky took flight and disappeared into the distance.

Back on Rean's side of the Azum Dimensional Realm, he noticed Kentucky's movement. "Hum? Seems like Kentucky understood the issue, too."

Rean passed by a few Angels and quite a lot of Light Beasts. There were many of them in these initial areas, mostly at the Core Formation Realm or Core and Soul Fusion. He would need to go deeper if he wanted to find higher-level Light Beasts. "That's weird. How come you were being pursued by a Nascent Soul Light beast? There doesn't seem to be a single one of them in this area."

"I want an answer for that myself," Tabbris answered. "Other than the area with that 'thing,' I also haven't found any Nascent Soul Light Beasts, let alone stronger ones. Any Angel I found on the way immediately fled since most of the Angels that come to train are in the Core Formation or Core and Soul Fusion Realm. Even the Light Beasts themselves seemed afraid and opened the way. Well, I didn't want to flee either, so I served as a good bait to distract the Light Beast while others ran for their lives."

With Rean's speed, he covered the distance between Tabbris and the Light Beast's first encounter in less than a minute. Finally, he arrived in the area Tabbris mentioned, and sure enough, there were truly a lot of Light Beasts there, with quite a few at the Nascent Soul and even Soul Transformation level of power. But above all, Rean finally saw the 'thing' Tabbris mentioned. "Just what is that...?"
