Death... and me

Chapter 2675  Full Circle

'What?!' Everyone found it hard to contain their surprise to not attract much attention. 'Why would you never come back? First of all, why would it need you to leave this Universe in the first place?'

Celis, the one who liked cultivation the most, immediately thought about a possibility. 'Ascension...'

That single word froze everyone. 'Could it be...'

Kafan looked at Celis and nodded, satisfied. 'Yes, it is the same thing as when a mortal ascends to the Realm of Gods, Underworld, or Heavens. They can't return to the Mortal Realm because the laws of the Universe will push them back.'

'Of course, we are still able to return to the Mortal Realm after a certain level through brute force. Then, we need to keep fighting against the laws of the Universe to resist the spatial pull that keeps trying to send us back to the higher realms,' Kafan explained. 'But things weren't this simple for the Celestial Realm, right?' Roan took a guess.

'Exactly,' Kafan heard the same thing from the Universe Sentience... Well, Sister Orb. 'I'm only repeating the Universe Sentience's words here. According to it, we can only go to the mortal realm because we are still inside the same Universe. The barrier that separates us from the Mortal Realm isn't anything impressive. Let's not even talk about the laws of the Mortal Realm. We obviously have the strength to fight against it to stay there for some time before we are forced back.'

'However, entering a Universe as a Celestial Realm expert is a completely different story. At that moment, you would truly be fighting against the entire Universe. It doesn't matter how impressive a Celestial Realm expert is; such an expert will never be able to fight against an entire Universe. Thus, advancing into the Celestial Realm is the same as saying goodbye to your own Universe forever. You have ascended, and as an ascended being, you will stay.'

That gave a lot to think about for those hearing the story. Yet, there was a piece of good news in that. 'Well, at least we know we won't fight any Celestial Realm experts when other Unvierses come to our own Universe,' Rean commented.

Kafan shrugged his shoulders. 'As I said, I'm only repeating the Universe Sentience's words. Who knows? Perhaps other Universes' Celestial Realm experts have methods to surpass this barrier and enter the Universe. It is simply impossible to have an answer.'

Bunbun didn't care much about the Celestial Realm, though. 'You still haven't answered me why you didn't come back.'

'Yes,' Kafan turned in his direction. 'Roan thought the reason I didn't try to come back straight away was because I still wanted to breakthrough into the Celestial Realm. Yet, as you can see me here, it should be pretty obvious I rejected the idea. If I broke through and advanced into the Celestial Realm, I wouldn't be able to go back, let alone save Laweia and Lolio.'

'Of course, perhaps I could bring them with me and find a way outside our Universe,' Kafan continued. 'However, due to the Loporrits' peculiarity, I highly doubted I would have a good chance when I couldn't even enter a Universe. Instead, I asked the Universe Sentience to send me back to the Loporrits' Planet.'

'It didn't?' Rean asked.

'It wanted to, but it couldn't,' Kafan clarified. 'Do you remember the purple barrier covering this world? The one that spread after I opened the Spatial Distortion and the tower came out?' Everyone nodded and waited for Kafan to continue. 'That purple barrier, the same one covering this planet right now, has concealed the Planet's existence from the Universe. Even the Universe's sentience could not find it anymore.'

They immediately remembered how this wonderland changed location every now and then. It was only with the help of the twins' Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, which had similar properties, that this world could finally be found.

'The Universe Sentience didn't seem very worried, and I didn't want to waste more time there either. I wanted to see if I could return to this world by returning to the same place the planet was located before. After all, I could still help the Loporrits here,' Kafan said. The rest became pretty obvious. Kafan took the sealed souls of Laweia and Lolio into his Pocket Dimensional Realm and was sent away by the Universe Sentience. He quickly returned to the place were the Loporrits' world existed. Yet, it simply wasn't there anymore. But it wasn't like the area was empty. When Kafan returned to that place, he also found a few other experts in the Divinity Realm verifying the place. Kafan wasn't surprised, though. The fact that he, a Semi-Celestial, had been living in this world for many years definitely attracted the attention of other Semi-Celestials, who sent their own subordinates to investigate.

Back then, Kafan just ignored them all since none of them could do anything with him there. That's how the other Semi-Celestials seemed to have information about the Loporrits' world. They were related to these same experts from the past.

Other than experts who were around, there was also a lot of debris from the initial explosion of Chaos Laws and Energy. The so-called Chaos Laws items that the twins received from Gragatou was one of such items.

Kafan simply ignored all those experts and tried to find the planet. Yet, it didn't matter how far he stretched his Divine Sense, there wasn't a single trace of that planet anymore. It was completely gone.

'There were two times when I tried to find the Loporrits' Planet again,' Kafan explained. 'The first was right after I was dragged by the Universe Sentience. The second time was when I finally found a method to transform Lolio into a Death Spirit Copy. I didn't want to use Laweia's soul for it, so I did my best.'

Roan connected the dots. 'Gragatou said that the method to find this world was given by you.'

'Yes,' Kafan nodded. 'It was during the second time I searched for this world that I came up with the method of using the Chaos Laws items and the aura of a similar Dimensional Realm. Too bad that no such thing as a moving Dimensional Realm existed back then. Such a Dimensional Realm with similar properties only appeared many years later.'

Naturally, that was the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. 'We truly went full circle, didn't we?' Rean couldn't help but smile a little.
