Chapter 2807: A Small Passage
Rean then looked at Olvris and smiled at him. "Senior Olvris, we did it. We got the Fragment." Olvris was taken aback. "What are you talking about? The Core is still-" Yet, he stopped his words when he focused his Divine Sense at the core of the Dimensional Realm. The Core was still there. However, Olvris noticed it with a single glance. That core was not the Sacred Treasure of their race for sure. "Impossible! How did you do that?!"
Romario took the chance to explain. "If you pay attention to the Dimensional Realm as a whole, you will notice that it isn't completely identical to what it was before, especially most of the inanimate things."
Olvris checked, and he confirmed Romario's words. All the cities and their constructions were not taken away. But there were many rocks and other materials that existed in the various locations of the Dimensional Realm. They seemed the same, but at the same time, they weren't. "Have you teleported everyone away, including me?"
"What?! No!" Romario was speechless. "We swapped the Dimensional Realms. We set up so that the living beings wouldn't be affected, that's all. This Dimensional Realm is not the same Dimensional Realm you know. No, to be more specific, this is still the same Dimensional Realm, but everything inside was swapped. As for the real things, they have been sent to a nearly identical Dimensional Realm Replica."
Rean continued from there. "Senior said it yourself. The only way to get the Core was to destroy the Dimensional Realm that was using it. Now, we can definitely do it since the Replica Dimensional Realm is a barren land without any lives. We don't need to worry about killing anyone."
Olvris found it hard to believe, but the clues were all around him, especially the Core of the Dimensional Realm. "Give it back! The core is the treasure of the Leviathan Race! The very thing that made our bloodlines sacred!"
"I will give it back, don't worry," Rean assured Olvris. "I'm giving it back in a few minutes." "I don't care, giv-" Olvris wasn't expecting that answer. "Wait, what did you say?"
Romario took flight with Rean as the two prepared to leave. "Come with us, senior Olvris. You have to see it for yourself."
Olvris was lost at what to say. However, he had to follow since the future of the Leviathans was at risk.
Rean and Romario brought Olvris to the residence Romario was living in inside the Leviathan Race. There, Olvris saw that big silver colored sphere, the same one Romario was working on when Rean first appeared. Naturally, that was the Dimensional Realm replica.
Havek, Droman, Vigs, and the formations masters that were inside the replica had already come out and were waiting in the room. At the moment, no one was present inside the replica anymore.
Olvris obviously noticed what it was. "Dimensional Realms aren't hard to create at our level. However, this thing is truly pretty much identical to our Sacred Land. How long did it take for you to build it."
"It wasn't fast, that I can guarantee you. Nonetheless, it was worth the effort," said Romario. Right after, he made a few hand seals and the image of the Dimensional Realm replica zoomed to the core. "Can you see it? That's where the core is."
Olvris nodded. Since he was inside the room, the formations around the residence didn't block his senses. He could tell the Core show in the sphere was the Leviathans' Sacred Treasure. "What are you going to do?"
"Destroy the Dimensional Realm, of course!" Romario said as he made even more hand seals. Many runes floated in the air and attached to the surroundings, creating a powerful barrier that even Peak Stage Divinity Realm experts would have a hard time breaking through.
"What?!" Olvris was taken aback. "Wouldn't that destroy our core as well?"
"As if!" Rean snorted. "That thing took form because of the Fragment of the Universe Foundation Pillar inside it. Believe me, let alone destroying the Dimensional Realm, even a Semi-Celestial attacking with all his might could hope to destroy that Core of yours." *Brummmmm!*
Many cracks started to appear all around the silver sphere. At the same time, the Fabric of Space around it was sealed so that the Core and the Fragment wouldn't be teleported to some random corner of the Universe.
Suddenly, the entire residence trembled. Not only the residence but the Leviathans' Dimensional Realm as a whole seemed to feel that earthquake.
Yet, it wasn't comparable to the vision of the Dimensional Realm Replica exploding in front of their eyes. Rean and the other formations masters poured their Divine Energy into the runes of the barrier with everything they had. There were also many Divine Origin Energy Cores supporting it. But even with all of that, the barrier seemed on the verge of collapsing. "Will it hold?" Olvris couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry," Romario didn't seem concerned. "It is powerful, but the extra shielding runes I prepare will activate anytime now to support the protection and spatial sealing formation. Sure enough, many more runes activated when the barrier was about to give in. In an instant, the barrier stabilized, although it used even more Divine Energy now.
The event lasted an entire ten minutes, and in this little time, Rean and the other Formations Masters ran completely dry of Divine Energy. Not only that but over ten thousand Divine Origin Energy cores were also consumed. Nonetheless, things finally started to calm down. Olvris nervously watched it all and the dissipating Spatial Powers and Laws of the Dimensional Realm Replica. It was undoubtedly completely destroyed. However, a few minutes later, a shining blue light pierced through the chaotic barrier, making itself visible to everyone in the room.
Seeing that, Rean sighed in relief. "There you are, little one. I thought you would never come out."
In the next moment, the barrier was turned off while Sister Orb opened a passage into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. A very, very small passage.
