Death… And Me

Chapter 2692 Luan's Contribution

Chapter 2692  Luan's Contribution

The twins' group ended up in a corridor. They looked around, wondering which direction to follow. However, they quickly noticed something.

"This corridor... seems a little too big, doesn't it?" Rean couldn't help but mention.

Everyone agreed with him. Just this corridor alone stretched as far as their eyes could see. From outside, the tower was indeed quite large, but definitely not large to the point a straight corridor like this would fit inside.

"Seems like that the outside isn't the only place where Space is Warped," Roan commented. "We might have entered another Dimensional Realm instead. Who knows? There might be another entire world inside this tower."

"We can't waste time, though." Kafan quickly made his way ahead. "We need to find the way up and get that Fragment out of the Universe. Just be careful; Divine Sense seems to be restricted here. And due to the Chaos Laws, Spatial Perception doesn't seem very reliable either."

The twins' group nodded and followed Kafan. "Talking about this foreign fragment, what do you think those Drohares... Well, they probably weren't really Drohares. Anyway, they seemed to want to enter this tower at all costs after we discovered them."

Kafan thought about it. "From what we know, the Ruins of the Stars was once a Spaceship that had the objective to steal the Chaos Origin Source of our Universe. This tower is obviously related to that ship, so chances are this is part of the method they used to extract the Chaos Origin Source."

"So you think they are coming here to finish the job and steal the Chaos Origin Source?" Kentucky asked back.

"It is possible," Roan answered. "At the very least, a Universe Foundation Fragment is supposed to be a huge treasure, so they might only want to recover it. We won't know before we meet and ask them... if they tell us the truth at all."

Suddenly, a voice echoed in Roan's mind. 'Father, can I come out?'

Roan narrowed his eyes but complied with the rest. A second later, Luan appeared outside, being covered by Roan's Chaos Cultivation so that the Chaos Laws of the place wouldn't affect his body. "What is it?"

Rean and the others looked at Luan, curious.

Luan activated his Sacred Eyes and confirmed something. "As I thought. The Chaos Laws here aren't... chaotic, if I can say it like that."

"What do you mean?" Roan didn't understand where Luan was coming from.

Luan then explained. "Every since we entered this Wonderland, I've been observing the outside with Sister Orb's help, using my eyes. However, my eyes were pretty much useless since the Chaos Laws and Energy made all the elements of the world a huge mess. It truly blinded me."

One must not forget that Luan's Eyes can see the world's elements as if he could see through a different layer of space. He could switch between the normal view of a person and his Elemental View at any time. Rean and Roan used his Sacred Eyes many times in the past to help find the right path.

"Here, it is different. Obviously, I can't feel the laws yet. I don't have the cultivation for it. However, I can tell how much the Chaos Laws affect the elements of the world," Luan continued. "The elements inside this tower are very calm. That allows me to see the world through my sacred eyes again."

Roan immediately got the message. "So, are you able to see through these walls?"

"Yes," Luan nodded. "It's still not as good as what I can do back in the Realm of Gods, but I can definitely see through them. Well, I don't exactly see through them. Walls also have their own elements, just like any other physical object in the Universe. But I can see past their elements." Luan pointed in a specific direction. "Just now, I think I saw another of those Wonder Beasts around six kilometers in that direction."

"You think?" Celis asked.

Luan nodded. "Wonder Beasts are weird. The Elements are even more messed up around them, and in the direction I pointed out, there is an agglomeration of these messed-up Elements. I can't be sure, though. All I can see are the elements, and it does seem similar to the elements around the Wonder Beasts when I asked Sister Orb to show them to me very up close."

"I understand," Roan nodded. "It might be a Wonder Beast, or it might be something else that also messes with the surroundings Elements."

"Exactly," Luan confirmed before mentioning another thing. "Also... not even the Wonder Beasts near the tower messed the elements as much as this one I'm looking at. I don't know if it means it is much stronger, but it is better if we try to avoid it."

"We definitely have no reason to engage in battles against Wonder Beasts anymore," Roan and the others agreed. "Luan, since your eyes are working here, we will keep you outside. How far can they see?"

"Depend on the number of obstacles between me and the location I'm trying to see," Luan explained. "The more walls, the more condensed elements they have, which obviously makes it harder to see further." Luan looked around for a moment. "The shortest distance I can see at the moment seems to be around eleven kilometers."

Kafan and the others were more than satisfied. "That's great. Use your Divine Sense and keep sharing with us what you are seeing."

Rean even took several empty jade slips out. "Take them. Try to draw a map of the lower and upper floors of what you see. They might be helpful later."

Luan accepted the task and immediately started to work. Their group moved forward, entering other corridors now and then. Not long after, Luan finally found a way up to the next floor. "There it is. We can use the stairs."

Roan watched Luan's shared view and narrowed his eyes. "They only bring us to the next floor and stop there. There is no continuation to the next floors."

"Seems like this tower was truly done in a way to prevent us from going up straight away," Kafan added. "We will need to find the stairs to the next floor every time we reach a new one."
