Chapter 2631 Danger to Cultivation
The twins didn't need to look around to feel the presence of quite a few powerful Divine Senses. Those experts weren't hiding themselves, so the twins could see from which powers they belonged. There were experts from the Realm of Gods, Heavens, Underworld, and even some Vruves.
Those experts weren't there to take part in the exploration, though. Instead, they were there to protect the tunnel. You never know if someone will try underhanded methods, so they were all carefully paying attention to the entrance and the surroundings, ready to attack anyone who tried anything against the entrance.
Rean didn't stay there for long, turning around and preparing to leave. 'Alright, let's take this opportunity and go to the Hustis Continent. We have a Fragment to find there anyway. Forget about this Hidden Realm and the Quest. It is not worth it.'
Roan narrowed his eyes. A big part of him, pretty much all of it, told him to leave this place. That was the most logical decision, the same decision he had made when Rean first talked about it back in the Realm of Gods. However, being so close to the tunnel and feeling the energy coming from inside seemed to stir something within Roan's Soul. 'Let's go.' Without giving any explanation, Roan shot in the direction of the Spatial Tunnel. That wasn't the kind of action someone as logical as Roan would take, but this time, he just had to do it.
Rean, looking from behind, sighed and followed. "Since that's your decision, I might as well see it to the end," he murmured.
The twins quickly passed through the Spatial Tunnel, being dragged by the altered laws left behind by the Semi-Celestials. Their visions blurred and distorted several times, showing that opening this passage inside that Hidden Realm was no easy feat. The Realm itself seemed to be fighting to close it.
It took over a minute for the traversal to conclude. When their visions finally returned to normal, they found themselves in a world of multicolored lights. It vaguely reminded the twins of the crystals they found deep in the continental barrier passages. Of course, the similarities ended there.
The twins looked around and could still see many groups. At first, this seemed to be just a plain field if you ignored the lights. As for danger, there was nothing at the moment... or so they thought.
The twins barely had time to think about anything else before tens of experts rushed back to the Spatial Tunnel. Not long after, a few hundred left. They didn't hesitate before traversing it and disappearing inside. Well, there were still several thousand behind who didn't seem to want to leave, though.
Rean and Roan narrowed their eyes. Those experts seemed scared of their minds. Yet, they truly couldn't see anything that could have caused that change.
Finally, the twins located Landeau. They thought Landeau would have been gone by now, following the other Divinity Realm experts, but he was still waiting near the entrance. Not only he but many other Divinity Realm experts were also standing in their positions, not taking a single step forward. The only ones the twins couldn't see were the Semi-Celestials. Other than them, everyone else was still there.
They quickly approached Landeau, trying to understand the issue. In the end, there was no need for that. The twins immediately noticed that their cultivation... began to drop!
"What the hell?!"
Landeau looked behind, seeing the twins, so he quickly warned them. "Don't move! The more you move, the more your cultivation will regress."
The twins obviously stopped, and so did their loss of cultivation. It wasn't much. Those few steps they took were equivalent to a day or so of cultivation. However, if they had already lost a day's worth of cultivation by moving so little, would they go back to being mortals if they tried to traverse this Hidden Realm?
Rean then thought about something. "Senior Landeau, do you know if we can drop a realm? Perhaps we will only lose enough cultivation to the start of our cultivation stage as if we had just broken through."
Landeau didn't mind answering since everyone had already seen it. "No, it doesn't stop there. You took a little to enter this place, so you didn't see it. Quite a few of the experts dropped a Stage when they moved too far. Some even went down from the Initial Stage of a Realm the the Peak Stage of the previous Realm. They will have to break through again."
"This..." Rean was taken aback, not expecting that such a thing was possible. Roan snorted after hearing that, though. "Everyone was expecting danger in this place... but nothing scares a cultivator more than the possibility of becoming a mortal again. Most cultivators would rather die instead."
Rean still couldn't see the Semi-Celestials, though. "Then... what about Kafan, Gragatou, and the others. There isn't a single Semi-Celestial here. Were they not affected?"
Landeau shook his head. "No one knows. By the time the other groups entered, the Semi-Celestials were already gone."
Roan, however, noticed something else. "Then why haven't you all left yet? The exit is right there. At most, you would lose a few weeks of cultivation to return, perhaps a few months."
"Chaos Laws," Landeau answered. "I can feel it... and so can the others."
The twins almost forgot that. Chaos Laws were the reason for them to come to this place, after all. They quickly focused their minds, and sure enough, they could feel that ethereal presence. "I can't feel the presence of Light or Darkness Laws at all, though," Rean mentioned.
"Wrong," Roan corrected him. "They are also there... within the Chaos Laws. Don't forget that Chaos Laws were the origin of all laws."
"I see..." Rean concentrated even more, but he couldn't see how to make use of these Chaos Laws. "There is just too little here. I barely can feel its presence at all, let alone using these Chaos Laws to comprehend anything."
Roan coldly smiled. "Not only you, but everyone else here is probably feeling the same."
No one could use so little, especially high-level experts, yet no one wanted to give up. Just like that, time passed without anyone moving, everyone trying to find a way to move without losing their precious cultivation.
However, things didn't stay that quiet for long. That's because, in the distance, something appeared. It ran towards them, seeming quite agile.
Before long, everyone was able to make out the creature. It was a rabbit... and quite a white one. Above all, it walked on its two legs as if it were a humanoid. It also wore clothes, much to everyone's dismay. Demon Beasts didn't care about clothes, at least not while they were in their true form.
The rabbit then stopped some distance away from everyone, finding the gathering quite amusing. "Now, that's different..." He commented while everyone listened. "Well, so be it. Everyone, welcome to Wonderland."
