Death… And Me

Chapter 2074 Unexpected Location



Chapter 2074 Unexpected Location

"Shall we go back to the Light Devil Clan, then?" Rui's subordinate asked back. Since they weren't going inside, there wasn't a point in being there.

However, Rui shook his head as he ignored Belial. "We are the holders of the Underworld Relic. If something goes wrong, it is our duty to use the Underworld Relic to save the other Elder Devils if necessary."

Still, his subordinate didn't understand. "Isn't it good if they get stuck there? Once 'they' come, the least the amount of resistance, the better. By the way, master, have you received any other news about them? Do you know when it will start?"

"I haven't. But with our lifespan, it won't matter if it is today or a thousand years later. We just need to wait." Rui stopped this conversation there. "Let's not talk about it anymore. We need to at least keep the appearances."

The guy could only close his mouth and wait outside the Swamp of No Return with Rui.

Back in the Belial Clan, Sesame and Roan were flying far away from the formations. Sister Orb couldn't hack into them with the system turned off, but she could at least feel their presences, which already helped a lot. Also, at Sesame's speed, it only took a few minutes to cover the entire surrounding area of the Belial Clan range.

However, after completing the round, Sesame stopped right in front of the Belial Clan once again. "Nothing... I couldn't feel the presence of the Fragment of the Universe Foundation at all."

Roan sighed in response. "Well, it's not like it was guaranteed that it would be here. First of all, since we were able to find the Belial Clan with such ease, so can others. It makes sense that even though Belial might not be carrying his Fragment, he didn't hide it in this place."

Sesame thought the same. "Well, then that's about it. This Belial Clan Range is pretty huge, but not huge enough for the Fragment to escape my detection. If it was inside, I would have felt it even though we didn't get in there."

"Forget it," Roan didn't mind. "It's time for Rean and me to return to the Realm of Gods. Can you leave us-" Suddenly, Roan stopped his words and looked in a certain direction away from the Belial Clan.

Sesame naturally noticed that. "What is it? Did they notice our presence?"

Roan shook his head. "That's not it. I just got an idea..."

After explaining it to Sesame through a Divine Sense message, Sesame immediately grabbed Roan and opened another Spatial Gate, leaving the Belial Clan Range. The place they were going was quite close, so another Spatial Gate connecting to the outside quickly appeared in their vision.

Coming out, Sesame's cat ears suddenly twitched and began to release a faint wave of energy. Roan saw that and tried to use his Divine Sense to identify what it was. Unfortunately, he quickly noticed that he had no idea what kind of energy that was.

A moment later, Sesam'e eyes lit up as he pointed his paw in another direction. "I can feel it! It is just like when we were inside the Swamp of No Return. It's the same feel as the Fragment. I also felt it when we left the Swamp, but that one was most likely the Underworld Relic you mentioned, so I didn't stop to feel it."

Roan coldly smiled as he looked in the direction Sesame pointed his paw. "Sure enough, he is quite daring." He was looking at none other than the Reincarnation Path. This place was kept under constant vigilance. "Even the Swamp of No Return couldn't compare to the importance the Elder Devils put in the Reincarnation Path. That said, it was hard to believe Belial would get close to this place."

Sesame couldn't help but ask. "How did you know that?"

Roan continued. "What better place was there to hide such an important item than right under the nose of all other powers?"

Sesame still couldn't believe it. "But it is too risky! Any wrong step and one of the Elder Devils or their subordinates constantly watching this place might have bumped on it."

Roan shook his head. "There are two reasons why no one would expect that other than the one I told you. First is the fact he didn't appear in the Soul Guiding Context. As you know, it was one of the competitions used to decide who would be the next Underworld Relic Holder. Since he has a Fragment, he doesn't participate. Since he doesn't participate, no one would expect him to make an appearance anyway."

"Second, it is his cultivation method," Roan added.

Sesame remembered that information only now. "Right! The AfterLife Fog Mantra!"

Roan nodded. "Correct. According to the information we got in the Dark Web City, the AfterLife Fog Mantra is a cultivation method that relies on Dead Souls and focuses on their Soul Energy for the usage of illusions. So, what better place is there to hide the Universe Foundation Fragment if not in the Reincarnation Path Area? The amount of Dead Souls in this place is so big that no one will notice if there is some special formation making use of their energy. Something tells me the AfterLife Fog Mantra is just perfect for it."

"How come your Soul Gem System didn't detect this fragment when you first came here?" Sesame asked back, confused.

Sister Orb was the first one to answer. [For the same reason that the system couldn't feel the presence of your Fragment back in the Swamp of No Return. It only detected your Fragment after entering the walls and passing the protection formation. If there is some special power protecting the Fragment Energy, it can block the System Detection. In this case, not only was your very high-level protection formation in place, but the Fragment was also being used by Hex, who drew out its Spatial and Time power. It made detection almost impossible without getting close enough. I don't think Belial's concealment is any weaker than the concealment of the last Fragment we acquired.]
