As soon as the teleportation formation flashed with a brilliant azure light, Damien found his body becoming weightless, and the next moment his surroundings completely changed as the azure light disappeared.
His brows raised in surprise as he saw the place he had teleported to.
Blue waves were crashing onto the sandy shoreline gently where sun-bleached sand crystals were strewn across the sand. A warm yet breezy wind was gently blowing across Damien's face as the tall trees with azure leaves swayed back and forth subtly as if dancing with the wind.
The water on the other side of the shoreline was a sparkling blue, glimmering under the radiant sunlight.
'A beach?' This was the first thought that sprang into Damien's mind the moment his surroundings became clear to him.
However, he didn't think too much about it as he quickly laid Irene down on a bed he summoned from his soul space. Fortunately, the spot they had teleported to was under a cool shade, thanks to the tall trees with large leaves.
"Damien, her condition isn't stabilizing…" Reva said in a fragile voice as she tried to use her ethereal energy to stabilize her grandmother's injuries, who was lying unconscious on the bed with a feeble breath.

Her powers were too weak to mend the damages a Profound Ethereal Realm cultivator like her grandmother had sustained.
"Take this and let her swallow it!" Damien hurriedly handed out a pill to Reva, who involuntarily took it into her hand but froze when she recognized what kind of pill it was.
"A Rank 7 Profound Healing Pill? Damien, t-this is the pill she gave you…" Reva was astonished to see Damien hand over one of the most precious pills in the continent since even making one would require exhausting a lot of precious resources and time.
She remembered that her grandmother gave this to Damien as a perk for joining the Forsaken on the day he joined them.
And as a talented alchemist, she knew how precious this pill was, especially when it could save Damien from extreme peril at any moment.
"Take it, Reva. This pill is nothing to me if you are not happy. Now, don't refuse it and let your grandmother have it before it's too late," Damien firmly said, not giving any room for Reva to refuse, and quickly grabbed her hand to make her put the pill into Irene's mouth, which Reva unconsciously did while feeling warmth in her chest, hearing Damien's words.
Damien had no qualms in handing over the most precious pill he had in his possession since helping his women when they needed him the most was the priority for him. And he knew how much Reva loved her grandmother even if she never showed it on the outside.

Rank 7 Pills were not held in high regard for nothing as its medicinal powers originate from the best medicinal ingredients in the continents, some of which were at least a few centuries old. The older a medicinal ingredient was, the more medicinal power it was said to contain.
Within a few seconds, the pill broke down in her body as its explosive medicinal energy spread throughout her body instantaneously, mending her nerves, muscles, and bones at the same time.
However, Irene was suffering from serious internal injuries, and even a Rank 7 Pill would not be able to instantaneously heal these injuries but take its own time, especially since Irene's ethereal core was now deficient in ethereal energy.
Due to her body's state, her ethereal energy was renewing at a very slow rate which in turn was slowing down the healing process of not only her own body but also the pill as well.
However, on the outside, her breathing rhythm had stabilized and didn't seem labored anymore. Her complexion had also slightly improved, and Reva couldn't help but feel like her mind got lighter after being worried and tense for all this time.
She couldn't help but fall on her knees languidly as she felt a bit dizzy.

Damien became worried as he quickly grabbed Reva's arms and crouched beside her as he asked with a concerned expression, "Reva, are you alright? Let me put up another bed for you."
Reva shook her head as she slowly stood up and said as she rubbed her head, "No…I am fine. Let's first move her to someplace safe. Where are the others?"
"Oh…" Damien now realized that only Reva and Irene were here with him while the other Zirians or even Shania and the other experts who had used other teleportation formations along with him were nowhere to be seen.
He looked around and could only see the beautiful beach that seemed to have come straight out of a fantasy painting with tall trees surrounding him, and behind him was a large white marble-like cliff.
Damien immediately spread his spiritual sense to see if there was anybody else around him, but even after spreading it for dozens of kilometers, he couldn't sense a single soul but learned that he was on some kind of island surrounded by the vast blue ocean.
Damien had a blinking expression wondering which place he got teleported to since he didn't remember seeing such an island on the map of the Rising Sun Continent and immediately tried to use his messaging talisman to contact Shania and Blake.
'What the…' But to his surprise, he was unable to reach any of them and had his expression turn into a confused and puzzled one.
"Damien, what's wrong? Why do you seem so out of it?" Reva asked since she was still unable to use her spiritual senses and was waiting for Damien to see if he could reach out to their people.
Damien slowly looked at her and said in a bemused tone, "I think…we are stranded in a place that doesn't exist in our continent."
