Chapter 2881: Getting Ready
"Destroy it?!" Everyone was taken aback. "We know it is inside your Pocket Dimensional Realm. That indeed gives you the power to destroy it, most likely. However, wouldn't it be a waste? What if we use it and drop this thing right in the middle of the Garisan Army when they attack?"
Soul Gem was the first one to reject the idea. "No. As I said before, I can't take control of this thing. Garisan, however, definitely can. If we drop it in the midst of their ranks and they recover it, that would be a problem for us. After all, I doubt they would commit this same mistake again."
"That's not the main reason," Roan took from there. "This thing is too powerful. You should have noticed when you entered our Pocket Dimensional Realm. Although we were isolating it and preventing it from absorbing any energy, it didn't stop trying. It never will. That thing can destroy a Universe. Our Pocket Dimensional Realm is big, but it is not a Universe big. We will not risk having our Pocket Dimensional Destroyed, even if the chances are low."
[That is the correct decision.] Sister Orb commented to the twins. [I'm indeed stopping it from doing anything, but the connection it creates is with the outside Universe. That is one thing the system can't stop yet. It is too powerful. I'm pretty confident I can keep it harmless forever, but I can't be 100% sure. It is not worth the risk.]
The experts outside discussed it for a while. In the end, through Kafan, Gragatou, and Huban's help, they accept that the twins will destroy it.
[Alright, I'm getting rid of it now.]
The Soul Gem Dimensional Realm instantly began to break the entire thing apart. It tried to use all the energy it had already absorbed to repair itself, just like when the Semi-Celestials attacked the previous Omni Vortex. However, it simply couldn't keep up with the speed of destruction. Finally, a few minutes later, the entire thing became nothing but a huge concentration of elements, laws, and energies. The Omni Vortex was gone.
Far away, several experts watched it. They asked the twins to allow them to see the Omni Vortex destruction. After all, it wasn't like they believed the twins just because they said they would destroy it. The twins even allowed these guys to collect some of the Vortex' remains to bring back to their own master, leaders, etc.
"It is done," Rean spoke to everyone outside, and the experts who witnessed it confirmed his words.
"It still feels like a waste," Black Locust couldn't help but comment.
Kafan shook his head in response. "Let's not dwell on this topic. We believe that nothing can affect the Pocket Dimensional Realm with their owner in control, but that is only our knowledge in our Universe. Nothing guarantees the Garisan Forces can't do it with their technology. It is indeed a risk not worth taking."
The rest of the experts around nodded and decided to put the Omnio Vortex topic aside. Instead, they were still a lot more curious about the twins' cultivation speed.
"It isn't hard to guess why we managed to get to this level this fast," Roan commented as if it wasn't a big deal. "Stop for a moment and think about it. What could we possibly have used to give us such a huge advantage? All of you already have the answer to that."
"We do?" Sophia narrowed and thought about the past. Suddenly, one thing appeared in her mind. "The Purple Crystal from the Loporrits' Planet."
Instantly, everyone became clear for those hearing the conversation. Back then, they knew the twins' group entered the tower. Later, the Loporrits used the Purple Crystal and consumed a big part of it. The rest they left for the experts of the Lisan Universe to share between themselves. Besides, everyone was present when the twins made an agreement with the Loporrits. It's just that no one knew what that agreement was about. Now they know. Roan nodded. It would be pointless hiding it since their comprehension of laws and their merging were just too ridiculous. The Semi-Celestials would sooner or later reach that conclusion on their own. "Correct. We had a deal with the Loporrits, remember? Simply put, we acquired a big chunk of Purple Crystal for ourselves."
"Shouldn't you have brought it out to share with the rest?" Sansara asked with a dark expression.
"Ha!" Yet, Roan snorted. "You, a Devil, talking about sharing? Tell me, would you share it?" Sansara narrowed his eyes. However, a moment later, he chuckled. "Hehe! As if!" He instantly dropped the topic. He would never share the Purple Crystal if he could help it.
"Before anyone else complains, this was a deal Rean and I did with the Loporrits on our own. Everyone was there in the Loporrits Planet. You had your chance. Not only that. We weren't the first ones to meet the Loporrits. There were a few idiots who got to the Loporrits before we did." Roan looked in the direction of a certain Divinity Realm expert, who quickly looked away and averted his gaze.
Indeed. Back then, the twins's group wasn't the first one to get to the Loporrits settlement. Instead, it was a group of cultivators led by that Middle Stage Divinity Realm expert... Vanos of the Drugo Organization! (Chapter 2642) "Yet, those idiots thought they were gods and tried to force the Loporrits to do what they wanted. Well... you can guess what happened when they tried that."
Everyone instantly looked at Vanos. The same closed his eyes and didn't say anything. It was true. He didn't try to talk to the Loporrits. Instead, he attacked them. Looking at it now, perhaps he was the one who lost the chance to acquire a huge chunk of Purple Crystal for himself.
The Divinity Realm experts of the humanoid races looked at him with pity. After all, Vanos was also part of the humanoids in the Realm of Gods. 'He truly lost a huge chance...' Roan ignored that, though. "Anyway. Don't come at me with sharing ideas or whatever. No one here is innocent. Besides, we used most of the crystal already to get to the Late Stage of the Divinity Realm. As to whether you believe it or not, I couldn't care less." Roan's words obviously caused some to grow angry. "Aren't you going overboard?"
"Hmph!" Roan ignored them and opened a Spatial Gate. "I said what I had to say. I'm going back to the Underworld. Instead of wasting time here, we should all return to our posts. With the Omni Vortex gone, I doubt the Garisan Forces are very happy. If you need any army being moved through the Universe, just use Rean, Luan, or myself. Farewell." And so, Roan left.
Kafan sighed, knowing his disciple way too well. "Anyway, everyone. As harsh as my disciple is, he is also right. And yes, I knew the twins had the Purple Crystal. But they got it through their own efforts, so I had no obligation to tell anyone. Now, let's put our minds back on the pressing matter. Garisan is certain to come soon, and they will be spitting fire out of anger now that we have dealt with the second Omni Vortex."
Regardless of what anyone thought, Kafan was right as well. Soon, the experts dispersed, and that part of the Universe returned to its usual silence.
