Chapter 2123 Chain Reaction
Chapter 2123 Chain Reaction
The Angels didn't mind. They didn't have the same rules of restraint as the other groups. If someone didn't want to go, they wouldn't force them. The other groups, however, were different, especially the Devils.
"Qarumon, you go ahead." Mephisto, who was also present, immediately ordered one of his Devils to go and try. He had no patience to wait for someone else, so he sent one of his own subordinates.
"This..." Qarumon, a Space-Time Realm Devil, was one of the Devils who had figured out a way to harmonize with the barrier. But after witnessing what happened to the previous Devil, he truly didn't want to be the next one to try.
Mephisto's expression darkened as he pointed his hand at Qarumon. Immediately, Qarumon lost control over space due to the vast difference in cultivation. Seeing this, Mephisto asked, "I'll say it one more time. You, Go, Ahead! Do you understand me?"
.com Qarumon quickly nodded before Mephisto's power overwhelmed him. Only then did the oppression on his body fade away. Qarumon understood that if he didn't go now, he would die right there. At least, if he attempted to harmonize and pass through the barrier, he would have a chance. Refusing to go was a guaranteed doom.
He had been chosen because he was one of the weakest Space-Time Devils among those participating in the exploration. He was only at the Initial Stage of the Space-Time Realm.
Although all three Higher Realms had more Space-Time Experts than Divinity Realm ones, they weren't abundant. None of them could risk sending all their top Space-Time members. What if they all died? It would jeopardize their Realm's future. That's why only a few of those Space-Time Realm experts had reached the Late and Peak Stages. The majority were only at the Initial Stage.
Qarumon swallowed nervously and approached the barrier. At the same time, he retrieved an item from his Spatial Ring that resembled a White Colored Branch. However, before he could enter the barrier, he noticed that someone had already passed ahead of him. In fact, everyone saw the same thing.
Right before their eyes, an Angel and a Devil held hands, causing their Light and Dark Elements to merge. They then touched the thin layer of Dark and Light Elements within the Ring, which didn't retaliate. Slowly, their hands entered the Ring's Layer and appeared to blend with it.
And who were these two individuals? None other than Rean and Roan! Upon realizing that no one else wanted to go forward, they seized the opportunity and spoke with Spiegel and Waremis. Although Spiegel was initially skeptical about the twins' claim that they could succeed, he understood that this was a chance to be the first ones inside. Waremis, as the true leader of their group, also considered it and gave his approval.
That being said, Spiegel and Waremis each held onto the shoulder of Rean or Roan right behind them. 'It's working!' They were prepared to retreat immediately if anything happened to the twins. However, witnessing the twins' progress boosted their confidence. They let their guard down and allowed the twins to envelop them with their own Light and Dark Elements.
Qarumon glanced back at Mephisto, fearing that he might take action since he had hesitated. Yet, Mephisto simply nodded, indicating that he, too, wanted to see what would happen before forcing Qarumon to proceed. Qarumon breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that witnessing the twins' attempt would also benefit him when it was his turn.
It was then that another group appeared, much to everyone's surprise. They completely disregarded Qarumon, the twins, and the barrier's entrance points. Those behind immediately recognized them. 'Vruve...'
Indeed, of the ten members from the Vruve Organization, only two were at the Divinity Realm Level. The rest were all Space-Time Realm experts. Two of them were at the Peak Stage, two at the Middle Stage, and the remaining four at the Initial Stage. Nevertheless, they all attempted to cross the barrier at once. Some saw it as craziness as the Vruve Organization was risking all their members at once.
The twins observed that the Vruve group seemed uninterested in challenging them, so they ignored their efforts. Instead, they focused on harmonizing before they realized something. 'This Ring wasn't supposed to have this layer of Dark and Light Elements inside,' Rean communicated through Divine Sense to Roan, Spiegel, and Waremis.
Roan had already noticed it, but Spiegel and Waremis were completely puzzled. 'How do you know?'
'It's too unstable,' Rean continued. 'Clearly, this entrance wasn't designed to hinder anyone once open.'
Roan then glanced at the Ring's sidewalls. 'Most likely, this Ring was meant to fully open the passage, allowing anyone to enter. It was supposed to prevent the Dark and Light Element barrier outside from interfering with the inside. However, perhaps due to its age, it's not functioning as intended. That's why there's a thin layer of the Dark and Light Barrier still present inside the entrance.'
'Ah, I see.' Spiegel and Waremis were surprised by this revelation. Of course, they were happy to hear that. 'In any case, that's to our advantage since it means less competition... You can harmonize with it in this state, right?'
The twins immediately replied, 'We already have.'
Suddenly, Spiegel and Waremis felt their bodies being pulled together by Rean and Roan's Elements and Energy. The next thing they knew, they were already passing through the barrier. To those outside, it appeared as if the twins' group had submerged into a lake, with waves of Dark and Light Elements emanating the moment they crossed. But other than that, nothing seemed to happen.
As soon as they started to get through, Rean and Roan smiled coldly. 'Now, a little gift for our friends from the Vruve Organization.' Their bodies emitted a subtle oscillation of Dark and Light Elements that had been concealed. It was so minuscule that no one could detect it. However, the moment they disappeared inside, that oscillation triggered a Chain Reaction!
