Death… And Me Chapter 2768: True One

Chapter 2768: True One

Out in the Great Void, there was a barrier made of yellowed light that extended as far as the eyes could see. Usually, this barrier was very stable, with Chaos Laws, Energy, and Elements running through it in a constant march that could last forever. Were any of the Semi- Celestials here to see it, they would feel impressed how Chaos Laws could behave like this. However, right now, this perfect barrier was showing some ripples uncharacteristic of its long standing. It was very little, hardly perceptible, but it was definitely there, happening over its entire extent. This barrier was none other than the barrier that separated the Lisan Universe from the Great Void, the twins' Universe.

Not too far from it was a huge fleet of s.p.a.ceships, each one as big as the Ruins of the

Stars. There were at least a hundred of them, all waiting in place, not daring to enter the Lisan Universe.

At the center, one of those s.p.a.ceships stood out, being at least ten times bigger than the others. If one looked at the hull, they would see the crest of the Garisan Universe.

Back when the Ruins of the Stars first arrived, the Lingan Universe was the one controlling it, trying to steal the Chaos Origin Source. However, countless years had pa.s.sed already. During this time, the Lingan Universe went through many chances. But the biggest of all was the war against this same Garisan Universe.

That was a war that took several tens of universes into the conflict. It also resulted in the destruction of quite a few of them. Ultimately, the Garisan Universe came out victorious, turning the Ligan Universe into nothing but a Va.s.sal Universe now. Many, many years later, they got information about the Lisan Universe again.

One must understand that the Great Void acted like the Dark Forest concept. Even though Universes were enormous, they were truly nothing in comparison to the Great Void itself. Finding other Universes in the Great Void was harder than a single drop of water in all the oceans of the Realm of G.o.ds. However, once one of them showed themselves, it would be like lighting a fire in the middle of the darkness, and everyone around it would see.

Unless you were a force to be recognized, you definitely wouldn't want to be known. The Lisan Universe, where the twins live, was obviously not one of the big forces out there. Back when the Ruins of the Stars first arrived, it was more of an expeditionary s.p.a.ceship than a real conquering one.

But due to luck, it came into a universe that was quite new, so it had the capability of taking away the Chaos Origin Source on its own, and so it went for it. Little did they think Romario would intervene. That helped the Lisan Universe enter the Dark Forest again without anyone noticing it ever appeared.

The first piece of news regarding the Lisan Universe was obviously the Ruins of the Stars itself. Tanxan, the Jelly form of life the twins found in it, activated the Ruins of the Stars and left the Universe. When it finally arrived in one of the Universal Great Void Docks registered in the s.p.a.ceship's navigating system, it was swiftly brought in, and Tanxan was captured. There wasn't much to be done there. After all, that was supposed to be a Great Void Dock belonging to the Lingan Universe. As a Va.s.sal Universe, Lingan didn't even have control over that Dock anymore. Going through the system of the Ruins of the Stars, they found out about the Lisan Universe.

Unfortunately for them, it was impossible to use the ship's navigation data to go back to Lisan Universe. It wasn't something done on purpose by Tanxan. Let's not forget the Ruins of The Stars was heavily damaged from the very start. A lot of its database and operation systems were long gone when the twins were exploring it.

So, by luck, the Lisan Universe continued to exist only in name, but its location was unknown. Tanxan obviously couldn't memorize in his head such a specific location either, so interrogating him proved meaningless to find the Lisan Universe.

Things continued like that until, one day, a beacon signal reached the Lingan Va.s.sal Universe. It was from a very old model of beacon, but it still worked. Thanks to that, the Garisan Universe was able to pinpoint Lisan's location.

Truth be told, it wouldn't take ten years to make their way to the Lisan Universe. What took most of the time was to prepare for the invasion and bring the Grape Vortex with them. To mobilize a Universe Conquering Force was obviously not something you could do in a few days, after all.

Now, they finally arrived, and a big piece of meat was right in front of them, ready to be taken.

Inside the Capital s.p.a.ceship, thousands of cultivators from various races worked on the management of the fleet. In the commanding center, one could see many holographic screens moving everywhere. Some of them showed the other ships, and the various scouts spread far away to prevent any ambushes.

However, the main focus of most of those screens was on the images of a huge construct. It had the form of a fruit, and countless spheres inside it absorbed laws, Energies, and Elements nonstop. Just now, these screens seemed to have their signal obstructed for a moment, making the images a little blurry.

Yet, no one in the commanding center seemed worried about that. Once everything settled down, the images returned, and the construct continued intact. Obviously, that was the Grape Vortex, and the sudden disruption was due to the attack of the many Semi-Celestials and Divinity Realm experts against it.

"Sir, confirmation that the Grape Vortex is still 100% functional. No permanent damage detected," said a cultivator in the commanding center as he looked back.

The other experts looked in the same direction, where a man who seemed to be in his thirties could be seen. His name was Flavio Trok're, the fleet commander in this expedition. Also... A true Celestial Realm Expert.
