Chapter 323 - Not Enough Time

The Artifact Spirit then continued. Obviously, he didn't notice the twins' weird expressions.

'I don't know where you can find him. To be honest, he wasn't anyone important. I thought he had died back in the Severing Day due to how weak he was.'

The twins nodded. It was already a miracle that there was someone who really looked like that to start with.

"How do you know him, then? Didn't you lose most of your memories?"

'Hum... That's true. How come I can remember him? Maybe he was just lucky to be within my memory fragments. Nonetheless, I can't tell you where he is or how to find him.'Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #...-and-me_17340518006576905/not-enough-time_51067789657566267 for visiting.

Roan then pondered about other questions.

"What about other information regarding Vruve? How about places where we can find them if they still exist? Also, any other information about Soul Gem will help too. What did he specialize in? Did he have enemies? Family? Anything is valid."

The Artifact Spirit thought about the questions before answering.

'If Vruve still exists in the same place, it would be in the Higher Realms. However, you will need to investigate by yourself if you ever arrive there. As for Soul Gem, I know almost nothing about him, nor do I know what he was working on together with the organization. All I can tell is that he was quite important, so much of his information was covered up.'

The Artifact Spirit continue to ponder and check the memories that still existed until finally, something else came up.

'Oh! I don't know if this is of any help, but I think I heard the others who worked with Soul Gem talking about something called the Unification Plan. However, I don't know what it is about.'

Rean and Roan fell into deep thought.

'Unification Plan? Is it about the plan of unifying the two halves of the Universe?'

Roan nodded.

'This is a very important piece of information. Suppose this Unification Plan is really related to our own Universe Unifying mission. In that case, that means the Vruve organization knew that the Universe would be split in two before it happened.'

Rean agreed with Roan.

'Well, we can't guarantee that this is the same thing, but the chances are high. It could also confirm that the Soul Gem System was entirely built for that purpose.'

Roan then asked.

'I wonder what the other side of our universe has to do with it. I've been wondering, were they the perpetrators?'

'Are you talking about your Universal Transition organization where you worked as Death?'

Roan nodded.

'The one and the same. However, we were just a branch of a higher power that controls the universe.'

'What kind of power?'

'Well, putting it in Earthlings' words, they would be what you call gods.'

Rean couldn't help but ask.

'There is one thing I don't understand, though. Our previous half of the Universe doesn't have Spiritual Energy, right? Since that's the case, what kind of energy did you use as Death? After all, you could open portals, travel between places, etc.'

Suddenly, Roan showed a puzzled expression as he replied.

'Now that you talked about it, I do wonder what kind of power I used. It's definitely not Spiritual Energy, that's for sure. If I were to guess, it would be something similar to souls, maybe even the same thing exactly. After all, I know that I was a Death Spiritual Soul.'

'Can't you use Soul Power in this side of the universe?'

Roan shook his head.

'I tried it as soon as our souls entered our Mother's w.o.m.b. Just as I said, I couldn't connect with the other side at all. It was that connection that allowed me to do everything. I will think more about it later.'

Rean nodded, and they returned their attention back to the Artifact Spirit.

However, before they could say anything else, the Artifact Spirit intervened.

'Seems like our time is up. You should all leave.'

It was then that Rean and Roan noticed a faint white light appearing under their feet. However, they weren't the only ones. All the citizens who had doubts or didn't believe in the so-called ancestors also saw the same thing. Before Rean and Roan could ask what was happening, Sister Orb's voice rang in their mind. No, to be more specific, it was the Soul Gem System.

[Forced Teleportation Detected.]

"What?!"

[Forced Teleportation Activated.]

Rean, Roan, and everyone else then suddenly disappeared from Laan City. The twins only saw their surroundings blur and go dark for a second. When the light returned, and the blurriness disappeared, they were already outside Laan City.

When they looked around, Tiria, Juvian, and everyone else appeared around them as well. Everyone looked confused, not knowing what was happening. Last but not least, the non-believers of the city also appeared outside together with the rest. That also included Fuka and Nefere, the two elders that were at least in the Saint Realm.

"What happened? Didn't we have two days to gather everyone together? Also, weren't we supposed to use the exit teleport formation to go out? How come we all got out already?"

"That's not all. Look around. All of those who were still in doubt whether they would leave Laan City or not were also brought outside."

Suddenly, everyone felt the ground tremble as they looked at the mountain ahead of them. Rean and the others immediately noticed a difference. Before, the pillar of light shooting into the skies was white. Now it had become silver.

It was at that moment that the Silver Light intensified many times. Everyone couldn't help but close their eyes or look away. Not even the Nascent Soul Realm elders could resist the strength of the Silver Light.

Still, it only lasted for a few seconds. Not long after, it completely disappeared. However, it wasn't just the Silver Light that disappeared. The Four Peaks Mountain was gone as well. Tiria, Juvian, and all the Nascent Soul Realm elders immediately used their Spiritual Senses to check it. However, all they could see was a bottomless hole.

"Laan City... is gone!"
