The twins were clearly unaware of the nature of the so-called Dimensional Yin-Yang Reactor. "Senior Tanxan, is something amiss?"
Tanxan turned to face the twins. "Something wrong? The Dimensional Yin Yang Reactor is the source of power that propels the Spaceship. It's a highly secure location, accessible only to individuals with a military rank of Corporal or higher. Moreover, even with the required rank, special permission from someone like me is necessary to enter. Just so that you know, it's the same kind of permission I granted you."
Tanxan hurriedly dashed outside, utilizing his cultivation power to the fullest. However, despite being in the Middle Stage of the Space Bending Realm, he couldn't match the twins in terms of speed. Rean, Roan, and Luan easily kept pace with him. Even Luan, who was in the Void Tempering Realm Late Stage, three stages below, managed to match Tanxan's speed.
Though this fact caught Tanxan's attention, he couldn't concern himself with it at the moment. "Remember when I mentioned that even cultivators in the Divinity Realm would kneel before me if I activated the Ship's Defense System to its maximum potential? The Dimensional Yin Yang Reactor is where such defensive power is continuously employed. Presently, no Divinity Realm experts should be capable of entering the Spaceship Environment due to the existing restrictions. This also implies that those Space-Time Realm individuals who arrived with you should be unable to approach the Reactor."
Roan employed his Divine Sense to communicate with Rean and Luan. 'That's not our concern. Let's proceed to Sector 1B in the Second Region, retrieve the Fragment, and return to the Realm of Gods. Whatever occurs beyond that will no longer be our responsibility.'
Rean and Luan pondered for a moment and nodded. 'Agreed. It would be unwise to confront Space-Time Realm enemies, despite our advantage as Corporals.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey now possessed unhindered access to Space Power and the Divine Energy in their surroundings. This undoubtedly granted them a considerable boost in strength, surpassing that of anyone else on this expedition. Nevertheless, they weren't under the illusion that they could easily defeat Space-Time Realm adversaries. Although Time Power was heavily restricted for them, it didn't mean it couldn't be utilized. If the experts managed to employ Time Power for even a few seconds, the twins would face a formidable challenge, given the difference in their cultivation levels.
"Senior Tanxan, we will leave you to handle the invaders at the Dimensional Yin Yang Reactor. We won't be of assistance since the Defense System is designed to obliterate enemies in the Divinity Realm. If it failed to do so, then we certainly won't fare any better," Rean stated. "We wish you the best of luck."
Tanxan glanced at them, his empty sockets now infused with Divine Energy. "No problem. However, you should know that the Dimensional Yin Yang Reactor is located in the same Region and Sector as the item you are seeking. That is, Second Region, Sector 1B."
"What?! For real...?" Rean couldn't help but curse their luck. After all, this increased the likelihood of their Universe Foundation Fragment falling into the wrong hands. "Damn it, then let's go together. We need that item for our own sake."
Roan narrowed his eyes as he contemplated the situation. Unfortunately, Rean was right. They might have to confront Space-Time Realm enemies, but it was still safer than allowing the Fragment to fall into the hands of external powers. Furthermore, the adversaries they would face after that wouldn't be Space-Time Realm experts but instead Divinity Realm cultivators. "Screw it. Let's go."
Rean and Roan exchanged nods and employed their Divine Energy to lift both Luan and Tanxan. "Senior Tanxan, which way?"
Initially surprised, Tanxan quickly realized that the twins far surpassed him in speed. "System, indicate the direction to the nearest teleportation facility." Instantly, holographic arrows, the same ones that aided the twins before, materialized all around them.
'Life Style, First Form, Enhancement!'
'Death Style, Shadow Steps!'
With their Spatial Powers unlocked, the twins' speed surged, causing Tanxan's gelatinous body to deform due to the sudden acceleration. "Holy shit! Who the hell are you guys? Are you truly in the Space Bending Realm Late Stage?" Tanxan couldn't remember anyone in his own Universe that were able to achieve such speeds at the same realm as the twins. Well, there aren't many in this Universe, either. Perhaps only Kentucky when he is flying, but definitely not on the ground.
Rean smiled at him. "We've had some fortunate opportunities during our cultivation journey. However, we are indeed in the realm you mentioned."
Tanxan understood that this information pertained to the twins' secrets, so he refrained from further inquiry. "Alright, let's hurry!"
With no obstacles impeding their progress any longer, the twins darted through the corridors, reaching the teleportation facility within minutes. Meanwhile, the system continued issuing warnings about the breaches at the Dimensional Yin-Yang Reactor, deeply perplexing Tanxan. "How the hell are they managing this?"
The twins stepped onto the nearest Teleportation Platform as Tanxan utilized his credentials. "System, teleport all of us to Platform 10001F."
-Checking clearance level. Request accepted.-
*Vup, vup, vup, vup...*
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA flash of silver and green light enveloped them as the twins' group vanished. Moments later, they materialized in a room that bore no resemblance to the teleportation facilities they had previously used. Only a few Teleportation Platforms were present, each capable of accommodating no more than ten individuals.
Tanxan noticed their perplexity. "This is a private teleportation room reserved for high-ranking officials and those authorized by them. It is located just outside the Dimensional Yin-Yang Reactor."
The twins nodded in acknowledgment, but their attention shifted elsewhere. The Soul Gem System had suddenly come to life.
*Pin!*
[Universe Foundation Fragment located. Distance: 2321 meters.]
'So it really is here.'
However, the system didn't stop there.
[Foreign Universe Fragment detected. Warning! Our Universe Foundation Fragment has fused with the Foreign Fragment. The fusion is highly unstable due to their disparate properties. It is incomplete.]
[Additional Side-Quest Added: Destroy the Foreign Universe Foundation Fragment.]
[Reward: 1000000 Destiny Points.]
'This...' The twins were taken aback. 'Is it even possible to destroy a Universe Foundation Fragment?!'
