Death… And Me

Spiegel accelerated briefly and then stopped, but it still made him feel quite uncomfortable as a great amount of his Heavenly Origin Energy was consumed in that instant. "There is no doubt. Using Time-Related powers in these Ruins is equivalent to asking for death. If we find ourselves in a dangerous situation and I use it, I will only have a few seconds to deal with whatever is happening before I am completely drained."

He then took a few more pieces of Heavenly Stones and began to recover his Heavenly Origin Energy by converting the Heavenly Energy inside them. He wasn\'t empty like before, but he preferred to be full before doing anything else.

Meanwhile, Rean and Roan decided to give the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm a try. They already knew they could communicate with Sister Orb and the others inside. However, could they bring or send any items? Dimensional Realms were supposed to be closed off in this place, after all. For example, Spiegel was using a common Spatial Ring to bring out his Heavenly Stones since he knew he couldn\'t access his own Pocket Dimensional Realm. The laws involving both things differed.

Sure enough, it was as Sister Orb had mentioned. The twins were able to bring a few Divine Stones from the Dimensional Realm, pretending they had taken them from their Spatial Rings. Right after, they sent them back into the Dimensional Realm without any restrictions. "It\'s a good thing we can at least use Spatial Rings," they mentioned to Waremis and Spiegel.

Waremis nodded. "That\'s why we told you about this problem. Both mine and Spiegel\'s Pocket Dimensional Realms are completely sealed. We can sense them, but we can\'t communicate with them at all. Most likely, it has something to do with the fact that Space here is stagnant."

"Phew... I\'m done." Since he had only used Time Power for a moment, he didn\'t expend nearly as much as he did in his first attempt. He was able to recover that amount in just a few minutes. Spiegel then looked around, wondering what to do.

Seeing that, Roan took the opportunity to ask, "Do you know what you are looking for? It\'s quite difficult not to know your objectives for coming to this place."

Spiegel looked at Waremis, who nodded. "It\'s not a secret. We are mainly looking for cultivation resources that will allow Spiegel to reach the Archangel Realm. If there\'s anything else that can help our clan, it\'s even better. Most of the Space-Time Angels who came to this place are after the same thing. Of course, any treasures or materials we find are also welcome."I think you should take a look at

Rean couldn\'t help but think about forging materials, and Roan thought about herbs for his herb garden to use in alchemy. Rean even had an advantage. He could bring Kentucky out to help with metals since his Race could sense the presence of rare metals as long as they were beneficial to his current level. Many of the ores Rean had in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm were found by Kentucky during their travels, so he had quite a large supply. The only problem was that Kentucky often consumed a lot of them, so Rean had to keep replenishing them.

\'Sister Orb, does the Circuitry Teleport Formation work in this place?\' Rean asked through their Soul Connection.

[It doesn\'t seem to be a problem. The Space here isn\'t messed up, just stagnant. The only difference is that you won\'t be able to teleport a full 1000 kilometers. Similarly to how Spiegel can barely use Spatial Power, the Circuitry Teleport Formation can barely teleport you away. It would be quite good if you could teleport up to 50 kilometers using the highest output of Divine Energy.]

Rean nodded. \'That\'s more than enough. Divine Sense can\'t reach more than a few meters in this place. If Roan and I decide to explore things on our own, we can simply enter the Dimensional Realm and teleport away.\'

Roan understood what Rean meant. \'That is indeed a good idea. However, the problem is that it will reveal to Spiegel and Waremis that we have access to our Dimensional Realm. It would be better if we could go on our own without having to enter the Dimensional Realm.\'

\'Indeed,\' Rean agreed with Roan. \'Our Natural Spatial Perception is also limited in this place due to the stagnant Space. Nonetheless, we can "see" the black holes in our perceptions, which are obviously Waremis and Spiegel. At the moment, our perception seems to reach somewhere around two hundred meters. In Spiegel\'s case, his power should allow him to see at least a kilometer away due to the difference in cultivation. If we want to enter the Dimensional Realm without him noticing, we need to get at least this far away from him. Ideally, I would like to go at least two kilometers to be sure.\'

Spiegel was about to use his Heavenly Energy to catch the twins when Roan raised his hand. "Since you\'re looking for resources for yourselves, would you mind if we go on our own from here? We already repaid the favor to Aelrie for saving our lives by bringing you two through the Dark and Light Element barrier." Roan decided to simply ask since it didn\'t cost anything.

Spiegel was taken aback for a moment. "What?! You do know that most of the experts who entered these Ruins are in the Space-Time Realm, right? You will die if you encounter anyone who isn\'t an Angel. Besides, I told you before, we might need your Light and Dark Elements harmonization again."

Waremis nodded. "I won\'t lie. We don\'t really care that much if you die here. However, your Dark and Light Elements balance might still be useful to us. So we can\'t just let you go."
