Death… And Me

Chapter 2131 Hidden Away

A few days flew by quickly, with all the experts who managed to enter the Ruins of the Stars exploring various areas during this time. As previously mentioned, Rean had spotted bright spots of light within the Ruins, so it was natural for these experts to search for them.

However, they found nothing of value at these locations. The ground shimmered brightly like a star, forcing them to shield their eyes unless they used their own powers to look directly at those lights. There were also numerous peculiar constructions of various shapes, but unfortunately, they yielded no resources to gather. First of all, it wasn't even possible to enter them.

Not only were there no resources, but the Ruins also had defense mechanisms spread throughout. Many of these mechanisms were the very constructions they encountered. These constructs would come to life and attack the experts, who struggled to deal with them since they couldn't utilize Space or Time Powers.

As for treasures, the experts didn't even find a trace of them in their wildest dreams. A Small Continent in the Realm of Gods may be vast, but experts at the Space-Time Realm could cover the distance of such a continent within a day or two at most. As time passed, impatience grew among these experts, especially since they couldn't find a single way to exit the Ruins of the Stars.

Similar to Kentucky, they all surveyed the "skies" only to discover the same grim reality. The barrier composed of Dark and Light Elements protected the Ruins, rendering it impossible for them to escape, effectively trapping them inside.

Rean and Roan had witnessed some of these experts attempting to battle the defense mechanisms. In Rean's eyes, these mechanisms resembled laser cannons and blasters—items he had only seen in science fiction films back on Earth. However, these weapons functioned in a peculiar manner, materializing from walls and the ground before unleashing attacks infused with a combination of Light and Dark Elements power, much like Rean and Roan themselves.

Fortunately, Rean and Roan's Divine Sense and Light Bending Skill seemed to work on these mechanisms as well. Once the experts retreated from the area, the weapons ceased their assault, as if they had never laid eyes on the twins, to begin with. 

The days continued to pass just like that...

Meanwhile, in another location near what Rean would consider the back of the Delta-shaped Spaceship, two cultivators from the Space-Time Realm landed near a minuscule hole. Placing their hands over it, they felt a faint breeze emanating from the hole. Several other holes with the same effect surrounded it.

"This is the place," one of the cultivators, Luluch, declared. He was none other than one of the Vruve Organization Experts who had entered the Ruins of the Stars.

The other cultivator looked at him with an excited expression. "Finally! We've been searching for this damn thing for over two weeks. I was starting to doubt its existence." This other cultivator was obviously Itihis, the second member of the Vruve Organization who also survived the twins' trick.

Luluch shook his head, unsurprised by their prolonged search. "It couldn't be helped. Not only did we lack the exact location of the Air Ventilation, but our Divine Senses could only perceive a distance of three meters. This place is as vast as a small continent. How could we expect to find it quickly? In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it takes us months, or even years, to locate it. We're already lucky to have found it so soon, considering we only knew a general location to search for."

Itihis agreed, realizing his impatience was unwarranted. "Indeed, I was being hasty. But this restriction on Divine Sense, Space, and Time Powers is discomforting."I think you should take a look at

Luluch shared the same sentiment. "I feel the same."

However, Itihis narrowed his eyes. "This is undoubtedly one of the Air Ventilation Entrances of the ship, but even rats would struggle to pass through these holes, let alone us."

Many Space-Time Realm experts within the Ruins of the Stars attempted to break through the spaceship's hull out of frustration. The damage they inflicted was negligible, though. However, that wasn't the issue. If damage occurred, they could continue attacking until a breach was created.

However, the moment the assault ceased, the metallic hull would come to life and repair itself faster than anyone could inflict harm. The same applied to the weapons they destroyed, though it took them significantly longer to reform due to their complexity. Observing from afar, Rean thought the hull was constructed of nanobots or a similar substance from the films as well—he couldn't think of any other explanation.

Luluch smiled at Itihis, unconcerned by the situation. "Don't worry. There's a way to bypass it. These Air Ventilation Entrances are among the weakest points of the ship. As for the small holes, your Divine Sense can still reach three meters, right? Take a closer look at them."

Itihis complied and quickly understood. "I see... the holes are only on the surface. Beneath them, there's a passage large enough for us to traverse."

Luluch nodded. "Precisely. The damage we can inflict upon the hull may be minimal, but it should be enough for us to pass through before it repairs itself. However, we must hurry. Sooner or later, other Space-Time Realm experts on this ship will notice these Air Ventilations. There are more of them; it's just that they didn't know what to look for."

Itihis nodded and distanced himself from the small holes. Luluch did the same, standing beside Itihis. Together, they channeled their powers from their Dantians and unleashed a full-scale attack on the small holes without holding back.

*Boom!*

As expected, the damage they caused was minimal. However, due to the weak nature of the spot, they managed to create a sizable opening for them to pass through. "Let's go. It'll close within seconds, and I'd rather not waste any unnecessary energy."

Itihis and Luluch swiftly moved through the opening they had created. A few moments later, the opening seamlessly repaired itself as if nothing had occurred.

Unbeknownst to them, a trio stood in the distance aboard a white and black bird, observing their actions. "Oh-ho... following those two was a wise decision when they passed us by." It was none other than Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Luan!
