Death... and mechapter 1649: what really mattered

’Death Style, Third Form, Three Claws of the Dragon!’

*Swish, swish, swish!*

Immediately, three more monsters got their cores cut in half by Roan’s scythe.

Krikei agreed with Roan, saying, “That’s true. However, to make sure we can kill them, we have to use some powerful skills.”

’Fluid Spike Pressure!’

The water around three more monsters suddenly became as hard as metal before they pierced the monsters from their blind spots. Their cores were destroyed straight away before they could even launch an attack.

”Roan, I’m holding a few Divine Stones in my hand to recover Divine Energy while I attack,” said Lita.

’Earth Crystals!’

Crystals of Earth Element grew on the body of the monsters before they exploded, breaking the monsters’ bodies. It was only possible to use this method because the monsters weren’t trying to protect themselves.

Then again, Lita had Earth Element Affinity, so she wasn’t having a very good time. After all, it was hard to gather any Earth Element in this place. Fortunately, she could make up for it with her spatial powers, conserving as much Divine Energy as possible.

She continued, “Your position as the core of the battle formation is definitely helping us not waste any of the extra Divine Energy. However, this isn’t enough. We can at most hold on for two or three days like this.”

Vrie, who was in his real form as a Silver-eyed Black Tarantula, agreed with Lita. “She’s right. Perhaps we will need to take a more conservative approach. Besides, this is just the start. The number of monsters being born will definitely increase the closer we get to the one-week mark.”

Roan shook his head in response. “There’s no need. Our Divine Energy Source should start working anytime now.”

Back on Rean’s side, Erla was confused, asking him, “Divine Energy Source? Where is it?”

Somewhere else in the Deep Sea Dimensional Realm, Celis looked at his group as they seemed to be running out of Divine Energy. They could still last a day or two, but he decided that it was better to be safe. “Well, I guess it’s about time.”

Celis then returned to his World Swallowing Cedar form before he took hundreds of Rank Two Divine Stones from his spatial ring! It wasn’t just one or two like Lita and the others on Rean and Roan’s groups were using. He was going to use hundreds at once!

Kentucky, who had been fighting the monsters in the same group as Celis, couldn’t help but laugh once he saw that. “Hahaha! It’s about time. I don’t like to conserve Divine Energy at all.”

The other demon beasts in their groups were also excited as Celis had already explained what he could do.

”Go, Celis!”

”We’re counting on you!”

”For the victory!”

”Protect Celis’ roots!”

”Leave them to me! None shall pass my Poison Web Prison!”

Celis’s roots then spread all around. Normally, he would spread his roots in the outside world for several hundreds of kilometers. He could go even further now that he was back in the Transition Realm. However, he only covered the surrounding few hundred meters instead. Soon after, Divine Stones flew in all directions as Celis used his hundreds of roots to catch every Divine Stone.

Celis used this method to absorb and gather all the Divine Energy in the environment. However, it wasn’t possible this time since there wouldn’t be anyone to protect his roots if they spread too far. With that being said, he simply decided to keep them close and use the Divine Stones instead.

Immediately, a huge amount of Divine Energy covered the area around Celis’ group, revitalizing all the demon beasts there. It felt like they had Rank Three Divine Stones or even higher for their personal use!

Celis couldn’t help but sigh, though. ‘It’s quite unfortunate that I can’t absorb this amount of Divine Energy as cultivation. If I could, just how fast would my cultivation be?’ He was right. His Demon Core definitely wouldn’t be able to absorb all of that at once. If they were Rank Three Divine Stones, he would be able to use more, but Rean definitely wouldn’t let Celis waste the Divine Stones like that. Rank Two was the limit for this method. In the end, this method didn’t serve for cultivation as it really wasted a huge amount of Divine Energy. It was only good for replenishing lost Divine Energy Pools for everyone’s attacks.

Celis and Kentucky’s group weren’t the only ones to benefit from it. As soon as Celis started his wanton use of Divine Stones, Rean and Roan also felt part of it reaching their bodies through the connection between the four of them.

’It’s here!’ Rean and Roan thought at the same time.

Immediately, the Divine Energy in the two battle formations increased, which shocked the members of their groups. “This…”

Krikei looked at Roan, asking, “How can you gather so much Divine Energy like this? We don’t even need to use our own Divine Energy and simply use yours to keep the attacks.”

Back on Rean’s side, Erla and the others asked the same thing.

Rean smiled after hearing that, telling them, “Hehe! This is a little secret of mine. Now, make use of the Divine Energy I’m providing to the battle formation to attack and move. Let your dantians and demon cores recover to their peak while I’m doing it.”

Rean and Roan’s groups received similar answers and didn’t press any further. If Rean and Roan didn’t want to talk, they wouldn’t force it. What mattered was that they fulfilled their part of the deal. They really had a way of letting them recover their Divine Energy in the middle of the battle.
