Death… And Me Chapter 1373 - Entering The Portal

Chapter 1373 - Entering The Portal

From what the twins heard, the portal to the Divine Plane would appear at the base of the altar. The altar itself was enormous, having several tens of meters. Many inscriptions that no one could understand were engraved on it, all of which resonated with the cultivators' marks. 

At some point, the Void Tempering Realm elders from the top ten powers felt spatial power gathering around the altar. The level of the spatial powers being attracted by the altar was very high, something that those elders couldn't even dream about wielding someday. 

Eventually, the ground seemed to open... well, the ground was still there. It's just that the portal appeared right on top of it. The altar itself was in the middle, seeming to be floating on a pool of dark water. Sure enough, the portal appeared at the base of the altar, surrounding it completely. 

As soon as that was done, one cultivator, who wasn't part of the top ten powers, rushed inside. He had been lurking around, trying to understand what was happening in the Lost Star Realm. There were quite a few others in the area in the same situation as him, knowing that the top ten powers were up to something that was probably very beneficial. 

No one tried to stop the guy, though. In fact, Rean could see the disdain in the eyes of the disciples from the top ten powers. It was obvious that they knew something would happen.

*Bzzzzzzz!*

Right when that guy entered the portal, the altar shone with white light, instantly enveloping his body. 

*Arrrrgh!*

The white light seemed to melt the guy's body in the next moment, giving him only the chance to scream before his body was pulverized. That scene made Rean's group remember the Light Element Wave they saw before entering the depths of the Lost Star Realm.

The rest of the cultivators obviously didn't dare to get even close to the portal now. The guy who tried to rush inside was in the Late Stage of the Transition Realm but still died in an instant. Their fates wouldn't be any better if they tried it.

Eventually, some disciples from the Vanios Sect, which had marks that looked like a three-legged white crow, moved towards the portal. When they got close, the altar once again shone with the same white light. However, they didn't get affected by it at all. The three-legged white crow on their foreheads glowed as it released some kind of power that kept the altar's light from touching them. Following that, they jumped inside the portal on the ground and disappeared.

The other powers' disciples who had their third stage marks did the same, jumping inside the altar's portal one after another.

Rean then looked at Sally and said, "Sally, we are going ahead. You'll be responsible for protecting Lilia until the Light Element Waves are gone. Alright?"

Sally nodded and floated to Lilia's shoulder. Since Lilia didn't have any marks, she obviously couldn't enter the altar's portal. Lilia and Hurio then discussed something through Divine Sense before they bade each other farewell. After all, Hurio would be sent outside the Lost Star Realm after the Divine Plane closed a week later.

Rean, Roan, and Hurio then jumped on Kentucky's back. "Alright! Let's go, Kentucky!"

Opacli was taken aback and quickly reminded Rean. "Hey, you haven't told me the method to control the ancient beasts yet. You'll die if you enter the portal without telling me."

Rean looked at Opacli and laughed after that. "Hahaha! True, true! Very well, this is how I formed an agreement with the ancient beasts." Rean then retold how he gained Sally's trust, much to Opacli's shook. "What?! Did you heal that Armoured Salamander's child? Wait! That isn't useable at all! I made it very clear in the contract that the method had to be possible to be used by our clan. This is far from that."

Rean shook his head as he replied, "Of course, it's not! All you need to do is find an ancient beast with a child who's at the brink of death and help him. Of course, that's only if the ancient beast doesn't kill anyone who gets close."

Kentucky then took flight and headed to the portal. At the same time, Rean gave Opacli one last piece of information. "By the way, tell Tixa... no, wait! Her real name is Maeralya Croste. Anyways, tell Maeralya that her lovers are still alive and kicking. Next time, don't go around wiping out several cities. For now, we're taking these vials of Freezing Star Liquid and Rank Two Divine Stones for what you did. You shouldn't have tried to kill us, much less kill all those innocent people while doing that."

Opacli was enraged. First of all, what were the twins even talking about? Maeralya's lovers? He didn't know anything about that. All he knew was that those three vials of Freezing Star Liquid were worth a huge fortune, and even the Croste Clan would feel a huge pain to lose that. "Wait right there!"

Opacli immediately used his spatial powers and tried to stop the twins. However, Sally's eyes shone with a fiery light before her Fire-attribute spatial power came out and hit Opacli. This time, she didn't care about keeping him alive and immediately obliterated the guy. Opacli had nothing to do with the selection, after all. He didn't have a mark.

Sally then looked at the two disciples that were together with Opacli, which made them almost p.i.s.s in their clothes. However, unlike Opacli, they had the third stage marks, so she couldn't do anything to them. Sally and Lilia waited for the twins to disappear into the portal after that. Once that happened, Sally covered Lilia with her spatial powers, and the two females soon disappeared on the spot. With Sally's control over s.p.a.ce, none of the elders there could hope to follow them. And just like that, the Croste Clan lost an elder and a huge fortune.

The remaining elders of the other powers snorted after seeing that. In the end, there was no such thing as an ancient beast control method. For them, it was very good that they lost the bid since they would be the ones to receive the loss.

Not too long after, all the disciples and that demon beast with third stage marks entered the portal.. The portal disappeared right after, confirming that everyone who had the right to enter had done so already.
