Chapter 780 - What Does That Mean?
Roan then returned his attention to the meeting in the Hall before saying, "From what I heard from the Golden Drohare, his first memories were from the time he was already in the Bestial Sacred Ground. At that time, he was already a Stage Four Demon Beast."
"Already in the Bestial Sacred Ground?" Phex found that hard to believe. "Are you saying someone put him there?"
Roan shrugged his shoulders as he responded, "Maybe? However, I doubt that something even you can't do would be done by the Zasfins. If I were to guess, Red came from outside the planet, just like us."
Phex and the others went silent at that very moment. Usually, they wouldn't consider such a thing. However, Rean, Roan, and Kentucky were prime examples of this. With that said, why couldn't another Divine Demon Beast do the same? "From outside the planet..." Xaon then looked at Rean, Roan, and Kentucky before asking, "How do you know his cultivation at that time?"
Kentucky immediately answered, "Isn't that obvious? Divine Demon Beasts like us can achieve sentience at Stage Four instead of Stage Five. I doubt you would miss a demon beast at Stage Five and above, so he had to be at Stage Four back then."
Xaon had to admit that Kentucky was right.
However, that also added another point to the story. At least, Roan thought to be so. "If that's the case, doesn't that mean that the Bestial Sacred Ground might have some portal or similar thing connecting outside?"
Rean and Kentucky were surprised by that. However, the expressions on Xaon and the other Divine Demon Beasts changed when they heard Roan's words. Obviously, they seemed to know something about it. "What's happening? Could it be that there's actually a teleport formation or something like that in there?"
Xaon, Phex, and Darian looked at each other before they nodded. After that, Darian looked at the twins before saying, "You kids are quite smart. We have never seen it, but there is a legend about the Bestial Sacred Ground. It is said that once it awakes, it will connect our world with the Realm of Gods. This saying has been passed down from our ancestors for a very, very long time."
"Realm of Gods? This sounds quite suspicious," Kentucky could not help but blurt out.
Phex didn't deny that. "We think the same way. However, if the Golden Drohare's story is true, this might be the case. The only problem is that we haven't seen anything like that happening in there."
Rean immediately raised his hand as he said, "It shouldn't be too surprising. You said that once the Bestial Sacred Ground activates, or whatever that means, it will connect to the Realm of Gods. However, who said that these 'Gods' can't open a passage to the Bestial Sacred Ground first? If that's the case, I don't think there's a need to activate anything."
Everyone was taken aback. Sure enough, if it was the other way around, who said there was a need to activate the Bestial Sacred Ground? The only question would be why Red was sent there.
"Since Red doesn't have memories from before the Bestial Sacred Ground, that means he was thrown there as soon as he reached Stage Four, or perhaps he became a Stage Four Demon Beast in there," Roan explained his thought process.
Xaon then shook his head as he replied, "This won't bring us anywhere. The best-case scenario would be to check the Sacred Ground. However, we won't be able to enter it now."
"Why?" Kentucky asked in response.
Phex shrugged his shoulders. "That's because ever since Kentucky arrived in our world, the Bestial Sacred Ground has been acting strange. If our theory's correct, it's because we've never had so many Divine Demon Beasts on our planet before. Now that we know about the Golden Drohare, it increases this possibility."
Darian continued, "Because of these events happening there, it has become even more problematic to enter. We believe that this is also the reason behind the failure of the Spiritual Energy Fields. That's because the Bestial Sacred Ground has never used so much Spiritual Energy in the past. The Spiritual Energy Fields, which had been working at the same speed since ancient times, couldn't bear the sudden increase in energy demand. Fortunately, we had the method to repair them, and that's why we called Kentucky here."
Rean and Roan knew a bit more, though. Thanks to the Soul Gem System's mission, they knew that just repairing the Spiritual Energy Fields wasn't enough to fully activate the World Beast Formation in there. Otherwise, they would have received their reward of 30000 Destiny Points already. 'There must be something else we need to do in there to activate it. The only problem is how to enter that place.'
It was then that Darian mentioned, "However, it won't be long before we can do that."
Obviously, that piqued their interest. "How's that so?"
"We at least know that once the Bestial Sacred Ground starts to activate, it will only take a certain amount of years to be ready. Once that's done, we'll need to bring all the Divine Demon Beasts to finish the procedure," Phex said as he looked at Kentucky. "We were planning to tell you this once the war was over, but since we've gotten up to this point already, I might as well tell you right now."
Rean and Roan nodded after hearing that. That made sense since they knew that they haven't activated the formation yet. "Do you know when it will be?"
Darian shook his head, saying in response, "We only know it would take a few years, but not exactly how much. Our idea is to finish this war before heading there."
Kentucky immediately asked, "And why would you try to use it?"
Phex, Darian, and Xaon looked at each other before looking back at Kentucky. "We already reached the limit of what we can achieve on this planet. If we want to proceed further in our cultivation, we need to leave this place. We need to break the barrier of the higher realm."
"Barrier of the higher realm?" That was the first time Rean's group heard that term. "What does that mean?"
