Chapter 3076 There We Go
They arrived one of the blood vessels that lead into the brain. However, there seemed to have some kind of Spiritual Energy Barrier... No, it wasn't Spiritual Energy.
'Divine Energy!' Rean's eyes lit up seeing that. However, he quickly felt disappointed. 'Too bad it is the Charybdis' Divine Energy, so it isn't compatible with anyone else anymore.'
Uruavis didn't know what Rean was thinking, nor did he care. He just turned to the other Charybdis around him. "This is as far as you all can go. From here onwards, it will be only me and the sacred envoys. Please do your best to support Urugoen as he will be the next contact between you and Mother. Of course, if things turn out for the better, we all might be able to talk to her soon. Now, return to your posts and help Mother."
Uruashu quickly accepted. "Yes, Elder Uruavis! We will never forget you." Finally, they all turned around and left, leaving only Rean, Yuan, and Uruavis behind.
Uruavis didn't dwell on it for long and moved to the barrier. His body seemed to swell, and for a moment, Rean felt a hint of Soul Power escaping it. Whatever Uruavis did seemed to interact with the Divine Energy Barrier, causing it to disappear a few seconds later. "Quick! It will close again in a moment."
Rean and Yuan immediately dove inside, being followed by Uruavis. As Uruavis mentioned, the Divine Energy Barrier appeared again, separating them from the rest of the Charybdis' Body. Uruavis slowly returned to his normal size, although he seemed a lot weaker than before.
"Are you okay, senior Uruavis?" Rean asked back. The Charybdises had been quite polite so far, so Rean quite liked them. "I'm okay," Uruavis shook his body and tentacles for a moment, trying to regain some of his vigor. "Alright, come with me. We are almost there."
Rean and Yuan followed him while Rean saw the environment changing. His Spiritual Sense could easily spread into the walls, which were actually blood vessels and brain. Rean's expression suddenly turned serious. "Senior, it is fine that you brought us here. After all, we have no intention of causing trouble. However, I must warn you. This place is very fragile. If I go all out, I think I could cause irreparable damage to this brain, possibly even destroying it permanently. In the future, you guys better be more careful before bringing anyone here. Don't worry, though. I will not use it to threaten you or your mother."
Uruavis couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha! You are overestimating yourself. Trust me, if you truly tried to cause problems in this place, you wouldn't be alive for long. The same energy that created that barrier outside would destroy you here."
Rean approached the sphere. "Senior Uruavis, is it okay if I touch it?"
"Definitely," Uruavis didn't mind. "Just be careful. I don't know what could happen if you did. Don't say I didn't warn you."
Rean didn't mind and finally touched the sphere.
*Pin!*
[A clear division between the Werdlem Empire Cultivation Grasp and a form of rejection against it has been found.]
'There we go,' Rean and even Roan, who was watching, expected something like that to happen. The system truly didn't send Rean to the Saramina Sea Demon Palace just to get Yuan and Tana together. This was probably its true objective.
[As the hosts are aware, the cultivation energies in the Werdlem Empire's Bubble are controlled by the Werdlem Empire Main Universe. If they wish to prevent a Universe from cultivating in their bubble, they can. However, it is not perfect. There are a few key individuals who are not affected by this grasp of cultivation energies and can use them as they wish. The Charybdis Mother is one of such beings.]
[To combat that, the Werdlem Empire created a form of Spiritual Imprisonment that seals the soul of any individual that wanders off the cultivation energies' control after a certain level. The Charybdis Mother, just like many others, had her soul sealed.]
Then, right at the middle of that empty area of the brain, he saw a giant sphere enveloped by countless strange runes he had never seen before. 'Is that a formation, Sister Orb?'
