Death… And Me

Then again, Wekil couldn\'t give up at this point. If he did, when would the next opportunity come? Would it be another tens of thousands of years? He wasn\'t in the mood to wait that long again. "All of you. This isn\'t enough. You need to find a way to use more Divine Origin Energy. I can only keep this going for a day at most before my energy runs out. Once that happens, I won\'t be able to stop Braga at all."

"Ha!" Braga snorted in response. "Stop what? I can promise that I won\'t do anything to all of you if you simply stay put. There\'s no need to kill each other anymore."

This time, however, no one listened to Braga anymore. Well, to be more specific, they weren\'t paying much attention to Wekil either. The only reason they were following Wekil right now was the fact that they would improve their cultivations, at least. That was the only guarantee they had at the moment. After all, it seemed like neither Braga nor Wekil wanted them to leave this place before everything was over. The portal was gone, which was another proof of that.

However, Hurio could see that his sister and Lamanto were very worried. He was unaware of this ancestor thing but believed in his family at least. "Is there any way we can use much more Divine Origin Energy?"

Celis was the first one to respond, telling him, "Even if they didn\'t ask, I would still cultivate with all my might. However, this is already the limit of what I can absorb at once."

Roan and Kentucky nodded soon after. "We aren\'t as good as Celis, and we\'re also doing what we can."

Rean, on the other hand, pondered in silence for a bit. "All we need is to use as much Divine Origin Energy as possible, huh?" He then looked at Celis and told him, "Open a hundred-meter wide clearing for me. I know just the perfect formation to sap this place dry of Divine Origin Energy."

Celis nodded in response and did as Rean told him. Celis\' roots and vines had retreated much closer to his body after that, just in case someone decided to attack again. They were not even half of the two-kilometer radius from before. Nevertheless, it was spread further than just a few hundred meters. With that, he could still open a patch in the middle and keep Rean within his defensive range.

After that, Rean landed on the open space and accessed his spatial rings. \'Good thing I keep all the materials I need in emergencies inside my spatial rings. If it was in the Dimensional Realm, I wouldn\'t be able to access it at this moment.\'

In an instant, hundreds of materials fell on the ground before Rean began to work. Of course, Braga and Wekil noticed Rean\'s movements. After all, Rean\'s group was just above themselves. \'What is he doing?\'

Rean worked as fast as he could, but the formation was at the Golden Middle-level and was quite large. Because of that, half a day went by, and he was still not finished. At some point, Braga simply ignored him while Wekil urged Rean to go back and cultivate instead. Of course, Rean ignored him and continued to work on his formation.

There were only three hours before the day Wekil talked about was over. By now, the Law-breaking Eye wasn\'t advancing anymore against the chamber\'s runes. Instead, it was being pushed back by the recovering runes. The light coming out of the chamber had also dimmed quite a lot, showing that Wekil was pretty much spent by now.

As for Braga, he was relieved to see that. The amount of Divine Origin Energy accumulated in the Divine Plane was quite plenty, so he would definitely be able to hold Wekil back. Once he confirmed that Wekil was properly sealed, he would make sure that no breaches were left behind so that Wekil wouldn\'t have another chance in the future.

"Why don\'t you give up? Or better yet, if you truly want to leave this place, all you need to do is tell me what I need to know. As long as you do that, I don\'t mind letting you come back up either," Braga said with quite the confidence in his voice.

Wekil snorted in response, though. "Ha! What a joke! The only reason I\'m still alive is that I have kept that a secret. If I truly say something, then I\'m dead for sure!"

Naturally, Braga insisted once more. "We could reach an agreement here, don\'t you think? I\'m sure there\'s a way for both sides to be happy. Or could it be that you want to spend the rest of eternity here?"

Wekil didn\'t seem to care, though. "It\'s still better to be here than being dead. At the very least, I can guarantee that my soul will reach the path of reincarnation while keeping memories. You can give up on it. You will never find it. It\'s my race\'s heirloom. You have no rights over it."

With that, Braga could easily see that Wekil still wasn\'t willing to talk. "Hmph! Then let\'s see if you change your mind after a few more tens of thousands of years."

However, it was at that moment that Rean laughed out loud. "Hahaha! It\'s finally done.. Now then, let\'s see what the formation can do."
