Chapter 2526 Not Downwards
?Rean and Kentucky stayed in the same place for several minutes, waiting to see if the meteor shower upwards stopped. Yet, every now and then, they would see one of those meteors making its way to where they were. Obviously, the cataclysm on the surface was still going.
They wondered if they should just wait in this place. After all, even though their consumption of Sky Energy was high, they were indeed able to recover more than they were using, even if it was just slightly better. They quickly gave up that idea, though. There was only one reason why Rean and Kentucky were able to do that in this place: Divine Origin Energy cores.
Conversion of Divine Energy into Divine Origin Energy takes time, so only with the cores where they able to recover faster than they were spending. Rean and Kentucky brought quite a bit of Divine Origin Energy cores in their Spatial Equipment, but they couldn't access the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, so their cores would eventually run out.
"Let's go down. We can't keep this going forever," Rean finally made his decision.
Kentucky understood, and the group descended further into the Chasm. The Light Element quickly gave way to the Dark Element until the environment was full of Dark Element and almost no Light Element, just like on the surface, although the opposite.
The Chaotic Spatial power also eased a lot, making it possible for Rean and Kentucky to stop using their Sky Energy. Yet, they didn't seem capable of reaching the ground.
Suddenly, Rean noticed a movement in the corner of his eyes, barely visible due to the Dark Element concentration.
*Bang!*
Rean immediately kicked Kentucky's body, forcing him and Kentucky away in an instant. As soon as the space opened between them, an extremely concentrated mass of Dark Element passed there. Kentucky saw that and felt a chill on his back. The target was him since he had a much bigger body.
As soon as Rean kicked Kentucky, he activated his Light Element, illuminating the environment. He didn't want to do it before because he wanted to pass by unnoticed. Yet, he simply couldn't fight in complete darkness without the aid of Divine Sense. Natural Spatial Perception was also useless inside this Chaotic Chasm.
The light touched the enemy, revealing its form. It was basically the same as a Light Beast but made of Dark Element instead. However, it was much bigger, and judging by the speed of the attack a moment ago, its cultivation was definitely much higher than the Light Beasts Rean and Kentucky fought.
*Roar!*
As soon as Rean's Light Element spread in the surroundings, roars began to come from everywhere below. That Dar Beast definitely wasn't the only one there. Yet, it didn't seem to be very intelligent. It ignored its own companions in the distance and pounced at Rean, the source of that light.
Rean's Dark Star shined with Light Element, slashing against the Dark Beast.
'Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'
Rean's Sword split into three, all of them filled with Light Element.
*swish, swish, swish!*
The Dark Beast had no chance to dodge, being hit be Rean's Claws of the Dragon head-on. In the end, its power was only equivalent to a Space Bending Realm expert. It wasn't really a risk for Rean.
*Roar!*
Yet, it didn't die. Instead, it began to contort in pain, obviously seriously injured. Rean's Light Element created havoc in its body, destroying several organs. It's just that its life force was so big that even in that condition, it refused to die. Rean then ignored that Dark Beast and looked below. "Kentucky, we have company."
Several dark spots appeared one after another, quickly reaching tens of them. Each and every single one of them moved as fast or even faster than the Dark Beast Rean just incapacitated. freewebn ovel.com
"Fuck!" Kentucky's expression turned dark. "Do we fight?"
Rean nodded. "We need to clear this area as soon as possible. The longer we take, the more of these beasts will arrive. Fleeing is not an option. We have no idea where we are and what kind of danger we would throw ourselves into if we did that while being pursued by these guys."
"I can fight too!" Aelrie quickly commented. She was in the Late Stage of the Space Bending Realm, so she thought she would be able to at least defend herself.
"Out of question." Rean denied her request, though. "There are Dark Beasts in that group in the Elemental Space Realm. It is easy to see through their speed. If one gets away and attacks you, we might not be able to save your life. Stay quiet for a moment."
Kentucky wouldn't let her go anyway, so he simply turned to the Dark Beast below.
'Kawa Blade Domain!'
He immediately activated his Domain, and countless Feather Blades appeared all around them.
*Zush, zush, zush, zush, zush...*
All the Feathers carried mainly Light Element, one of Kentucky's two affinities. He concentrated especially around himself, making sure Aelrie would stay safe.
Rean didn't waste time and dived into the fray.
'Death Style, Third form, Three Claws of the Dragon!'
'Death Style, First Form, Stellar Piercer!'
'Life Fire, Third Form, Flaming Blade Arc!'
Rean didn't hold back and killed and severely injured the Dark Beasts one after another. This time, only Kentucky used his Domain. The effect of Rean's Domain was to nullify any enemy Domain effect, be it harmful to his group or beneficial to his enemy. These Dark Beasts weren't using any Domain to start with, so Rean's Domain would be pretty much a waste of energy.
A massacre took place, and dark blood spilled everywhere. Yet, the Light Beasts continued to appear from below the Chasm, making Rean and Kentucky use more and more energy to deal with them all.
By the time they got rid of the fortieth Dark Beast, their reserves of energy had fallen below 20%.
"Rean, this is not going to work," Kentucky complained.
Rean narrowed his eyes, reaching a decision. "Full speed ahead. Don't try to flee downwards. Instead, run in the direction of the ruined city!"
