Chapter 4087: No Risk, Full Push!
Meanwhile, outside, the world around was a show of lights. Neither the twins’ group nor Gin’s group gained the upper hand. Gin was especially angry at that, as the thing he wanted the most simply couldn’t be taken until now, the vial in Roan’s hands.
*drrrruuuuummmm...*
*clanglanglanglanglanglanglang...*
Suddenly, the chains began to tremble, and that wasn’t because Hick was making his real body struggle. Everyone looked in the direction from which the chains were coming out of the Spatial Breaches.
*Plang!*
Then, a segment of the chain broke, and that was the first one.
*Plang, plang, plang, plang...*
The segments of all the chains, be they inside or outside the C44 Universe, began to break as well, all starting from the Spatial Breaches they came from.
That caused the battle to stop for a moment, as everyone watched the chains that held the Terminarch become history.
*Uom!*
The ring of the Terminarch began to rotate as the chains holding him broke nonstop. Fluctuations that were neither spatial nor elemental started to come out of it, spreading in all directions. As the fluctuations increased, the faster the chains broke.
*Bang!*
Finally, with a burst of energy, the remaining chains holding the Terminarch were blasted away, and his body was freed, with the ring rotating faster and faster. Hick didn’t waste time, shooting in his own body’s direction.
Outside C44, Flogon and Kroqui didn’t just watch. Since the chains were broken, they had no reason to hold back, immediately attacking the Terminarch. Even if the Primordial Beasts couldn’t die, you could definitely cause enough damage to restrain them.
Yet, before they could do that, something strange happened. They... couldn’t circulate their Divine Origin Energies anymore!
"This..."
Even their avatars stopped moving inside the C44 Universe, as if they had lost connection with them.
Hick faintly smiled, arriving by his body’s side and closing his eyes. Everyone watched as Hick’s soul left his own body, entering the black sphere at the center of the enormous ring!
The twins’ group was relieved. With that, Hick had recovered his body. The only doubt now was how strong he was. If he was right and he wasn’t at the Celestial Level anymore, it would be hard to deal with the Celestials outside.
The answer to that arrived a second later. ’I’m using my innate ability to create a boundary around the Celestials’ cultivation channels. However, I’m too weak, and that boundary will disappear in a few seconds. I’ll be pretty much out of commission for a long while after that. We need to leave straight away.’
*Zush!*
Havira arrived, looking at the twins’ group and the Terminarch. ’What does he want us to do?’
Roan’s eyes turned in Gin’s direction, and his Elemental Intent Weapons shot after him.
Gin, of course, never let Roan out of his sight. "Hmph!"
His Dark Needles easily blocked the attacks, and he was ready to charge after Roan again. However, he noticed that Havira disappeared after that. ’Did he send the Golden Crow into his Pocket Dimensional Realm?’
He couldn’t find any Pocket Dimensional Realm entrances left behind, so Havira definitely hadn’t entered her own. The only possibility was that she entered Roan’s.
Gin was right. Roan did send Havira into the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm. At the moment, keeping Havira outside would be nothing but a burden, and they didn’t have much time left.
’Red Death, Third Movement Form, Crimson Lightning!’
*Kabrum!*
Dark Red Lightning circulated, and Roan flashed in the direction of the Terminarch. Now that he was at the Peak Stage of the Divinity Realm, he could keep this ability working to the very end!
He wasn’t the only one. Rean, Celis, and Kentucky also used some attacks of their own and left their opponents behind. It was even better for them, as they were closer to Hick than Roan was initially. They were all flying in Hick’s direction.
Gin’s bad feeling was correct. "Stop them!"
He also darted after the twins’ group with his companions. He didn’t know how, but he could tell they were trying to escape. He couldn’t let the Vial of God Blood escape between his fingers after everything he invested to get it.
Flogon and Kroqui were doing their best to get rid of the boundary Hick created in their cultivations. They attacked it from the inside, using their dantian and core to bombard the blockage.
"Nothing yet?!" Kroqui couldn’t help but ask.
Flogon gritted his teeth. "It is not working! I simply can’t use the Werdlem Network at all!"
When Roan thought that they didn’t have time, he wasn’t wrong. Flogon and Kroqui did try to contact the Werdlem Universe after everything here started to happen. The Terminarch’s body was that important, after all. Not to mention its owner was here to take it back.
Unfortunately, the Werdlem Network, which had always been available for them, seemed to go silent. The signal was simply gone. They could try to open a Spatial Gate and go somewhere else. It’s not like the network was unavailable everywhere. However, if any of them left this place, that would also mean it would be much easier to get the Terminarch’s body. So, until now, they hadn’t left to try to contact the Empire.
As for why the network was unavailable, that was Hick’s doing. It was one thing to create a boundary to block a Celestial’s Cultivation. With Hick doing that against two of them, he could only hold for a few seconds. However, the Werdlem Network Signal was different.
At the end of the day, that was just a type of signal used for communication. The amount of power it carried at all times was minuscule if you only think about the region they found themselves in.
The Terminarch’s Boundaries ability applied to almost everything, with the exception of life. Naturally, the Werdlem Network Signal wasn’t immune to his ability. In fact, it was quite easy to create a boundary to block it. Hick only had to create an invisible boundary around everyone in this place. He could keep it working forever if he wanted to, as long as he stayed here, of course.
*Zush, zush, zush, zush!*
Suddenly, Roan and the others charged out of the Universe, surprising Flogon and Gin. Outside the Universe, both of them could use all their strength as Peak Stage Celestials. Even now, it was evident the twins’ group was made of Divinities, even if they were freaks.
However, it was then that the Terminarch’s gigantic body shrank. In just a second, it reached the size of a normal human, although it was still a ring structure with a black sphere at its center.
Gin’s group arrived at the division between C44 and the outside as well, crossing it and releasing the suppression of their Celestial Suppressors.
The twins’ group saw something like a disk with several inscriptions come out of their bodies. The moment they did, they cracked, breaking right after and turning into dust a moment later.
Gin and his group cared not for that. He could see it now. The twins’ group had just moved to a Great Void Shifter located behind where the Terminarch’s body was a second ago! It’s just that Hick’s body was so big earlier that Gin and his group hadn’t noticed the formation at first. "So that’s what you were trying to do!"
