Chapter 2669 A Chance
Everyone froze at that moment. What was necessary to cultivate the Space-Time Realm? Comprehend the four sublaws of their affinities. Each sublaw comprehended meant they could breakthrough into the next stage of the same realm. If they could comprehend all the sublaws at once, all they would need to reach the Divinity Realm was Divine Origin Energy... which they have plenty of after their last visit to planet Earth.
There were so many Divine Origin Energy Cores in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm that it wouldn't be an issue even if they decided to use some to accelerate time a hundred times. What stopped them from advancing nonstop was indeed just the laws.
"This is a chance to go straight into the Divinity Realm in a short period of time," Roan added. "We need strength for both our main objective and to deal with the visitors from other Universes. In the end, there is nothing better to stay alive than becoming stronger ourselves."
If Rean, Celis, and Kentucky said they were excited, they would be lying. However, they also understood the issue of Roan's plans. "Even if we reach the Divinity Realm, it would only be the Initial Stage. The Semi-Celestials would still come after us because of the Purple Crystal, and just the Initial Stage of the Divinity Realm wouldn't be enough to fight them."
Roan shrugged his shoulder. "As I said, it is a risk. We can absorb this Purple Crystal right now and comprehend the first sublaws. There might be enough here to even comprehend a little bit of the second sublaws, but definitely not enough to reach the Late Stage of the Space-Time Realm."
"Why are you deciding everything on your own?" Bunbun complained. "You are forgetting a very crucial thing. Should I remind you that your deal with Lotiri was to bring the Purple Crystal back to the Burrow? How come are you talking about using that Purple Crystal? Are you going back on your deal?"
Roan shook his head. "We aren't. We will bring the Purple Crystal back to the Loporrits if we can manage to put our hands on it. You have to understand that the Purple Crystal in that tower is truly enormous. There is more than enough Chaos Laws and Energy inside it for us to comprehend all our sublaws before we bring them to the Loporrits."
Roan coldly smiled. "The deal was the bring the crystal back. There was nothing saying that we couldn't use the crystal before it."
"That's just a fallacy!" Bunbun answered in anger.
"Hmph!" Roan couldn't care less. "I'm also cutting part of my soul so that you can see Lolio again. It was us who found this place. And now we truly have a real chance of acquiring the crystal you want so much. Why are you still complaining? If it bothers you, then we can simply use this small Purple Crystal and get out of this world. You can go to the tower and acquire the big Purple Crystal yourself!"
"And what stops me from taking this small Purple Crystal and leaving you with nothing?" Bunbun asked in response.
"Sure, go ahead," Roan commented with a care. "I highly doubt this small one is enough for whatever you need, though. I have Lolio's memories, remember? I can more or less guess what you intend to use the Purple Crystal for. I can guarantee this small one is nowhere near what you need."
Bunbun was enraged... However, he suddenly calmed down and looked deeply at Roan. "Indeed, there is no doubt you and Lolio are the same soul."
"Whatever you say," Roan turned around.
Bunbun weighted his options and had to admit everything Roan said was right. They truly needed the big Purple Crystal, and at the moment, it was the best chance to acquire the item. "You better bring it back to us."
Roan nodded slightly. "I have never gone back on my word." He then looked at Rean, Celis, and Kentucky. "Now, we need to reach a decision. A real possibility to reach the Divinity Realm fast but dangerously. Or a quick stage breakthrough here after consuming this Crystal. What will it be? You already know my opinion."
In the end, Rean sighed and agreed with Roan. "Don't cultivators like to say that cultivating is to fight against the heavens? I guess fighting Semi-Celesitals is as close to this meaning as we can get. I vote for us to go after the big fish."
Kentucky was just about to refuse when Celis put one of his roots in Kentucky's mouth while saying. "We obviously want to big Purple Crystal too."
*hmmmmhmmhmhmmh!!!* Poor Kentucky couldn't even give his opinion.
The twins saw that and pretended not to. "Good, we are all in agreement!"
*Buah!*
"Fuck you! I don't want to fight any Semi-Celesitals!" Kentucky finally managed to get free while complaining.
"Too bad," Rean smiled. "It's three votes against one."
"Do I really have to?" Kentucky felt like crying.
"You don't really need to," Rean found it funny. "However, I think The Great Kentucky, the greatest Minokawa to have ever existed, the inheritor of the Minokawa Regal Bloodline, and the most handsome Demon Bird would never abandon his friends."
Kentucky trembled a little as he put a wing on the back of his head. "Well... that's true. I can't disappoint my fan club in the Dimensional Realm, either."
'So easy...' Bunbun couldn't help but think.
"Alright, enough bullshit." Roan extended his hand with the Purple Crystal. "Touch the crystal and start absorbing its Chaos Laws. Use everything for your Chaos Cultivation. If everything goes right, we should be done in a month or so."
The group nodded, and they immediately started the process.
As the twins' group focused on their Chaos Cultivation, Bunbun left the building and went to the entrance of the tunnel. There, he found another one of the Loporrits charged to keep an eye on the twins.
"Bunbun, what is this place?" The Loporrit asked, curious.
Bunbun just shook his head, though. "Go back and tell Lotiri I will be the one to keep a look at this group. Perhaps there is really a chance of retrieving the Purple Crystal from the tower."
The Loporrit was taken aback but quickly accepted the order and left.
As for Bunbun, he looked in the tower's direction. "A chance is better than nothing...
