Death... and me

Chapter 2127 Limitations



Chapter 2127 Limitations

One thing that caught Spiegel's attention was that despite the Ruins being the size of a small continent, he couldn't travel at high speeds. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather the space around them seemed stagnant. After reaching the Void Tempering Realm, cultivators increasingly relied on their Spatial Powers. However, in this place, their spatial manipulation abilities were severely hindered. "This is terrible. Even with my full power exerted to control the space around us, I can hardly alter our travel speed."

Waremis shook his head. "Don't bother trying. It will only deplete our Heavenly Energy unnecessarily. Remember, we can only replenish our Heavenly Energy through Heavenly Stones. We may have plenty of them, but we don't know how long we'll be here. Let's try to conserve as much as possible."

The twins faced the same issue. Out in the Great Void, they could sense a considerable amount of Divine Energy, as well as Devilish and Heavenly Energies. While it paled in comparison to what they found in the three higher realms, it was still usable. However, upon entering the Dimensional Yin Yang Spaceship, or rather, passing through the Ring Entrance, these energies vanished completely. "Fortunately, we have an ample supply of Divine Stones as well."

Spiegel nodded and ceased his attempts to manipulate space for movement. This resulted in a reduction in their flight speed, but the difference was negligible. The only good thing about it was that all other participants in this exploration were bound to have the same issues.

"What about your control over time?" Rean couldn't help but inquire. The most significant difference between the Elemental Space Realm and below compared to the Space-Time Realm was the ability to manipulate time to a certain extent.

.com Spiegel shook his head. "It seems you don't know much about the Space-Time Realm. While it's true that at this level, we can control time to some degree, the energy required to do so is over ten times greater. Although Angels utilize Heavenly Energy, we must also convert it into Heavenly Origin Energy after the Space Bending Realm to cultivate. As you can imagine, we can't control time with Heavenly Energy alone. We have to employ Heavenly Origin Energy, just like the Devils or the People of the Realm of Gods."

"I see... Heavenly Energy does differ from Divine or Devilish Energy. However, Divine Origin Energy should be essentially the same as Heavenly Origin Energy," Rean added.

"That's correct," Waremis chimed in. "Heavenly, Devilish, and Divine Origin Energy are essentially different names for the same thing. However, each realm uses its own prefix for this energy because they find it easier to obtain Origin Energy using their respective lower-level energy types."

Spiegel nodded. "Indeed. For example, Angels find it much easier to acquire Origin Energy through Heavenly Energy compared to the other two types from the Realm of Gods and the Underworld. Hence, we simply use the prefix 'Heavenly' for our Origin Energy because it originates from normal Heavenly Energy. I doubt the other two realms would agree to call their Origin Energy anything other than their own Divine and Devilish Origin Energy."

Roan had already surmised as much, and he didn't concern himself with the names. Instead, he was more interested in something else. "Have you tried utilizing your Time Powers? It would be wise to test it in case we need it later." Spiegel was their strongest member, so Roan had to know the extent of his abilities.

"Ah, that's true." Spiegel had no objections to Roan's suggestion.

Without delay, Heavenly Origin Energy surged through Spiegel's body. Utilizing his mastery over time power, a faint golden light enveloped him. The light then extended to cover Rean, Roan, and Waremis as Spiegel attempted to accelerate the passage of time around them.

*Zuuuush!*

Indeed, their speed increased drastically. It was nearly twice as fast as before. However, just a few seconds later, Spiegel abruptly came to a halt and fell to the ground.

Waremis narrowed his eyes as he helped Spiegel to his feet. "What happened? I've never seen you this exhausted before."

Spiegel retrieved several Heavenly Stones from his Spatial Ring and absorbed their energy, converting it into Heavenly Origin Energy. Neither Waremis nor the twins disturbed him; they simply waited as Spiegel recovered. Finally, after around an hour and consuming several tens of Rank Five Heavenly Stones, Spiegel replenished his previous depletion. "Apologies for keeping you waiting, Senior Waremis."

Waremis shook his head. "It's fine. But what happened?"

"I don't know..." Spiegel was perplexed. "Initially, everything was functioning normally. I accelerated time around us as usual. However, within seconds, nearly all my reserves of Heavenly Origin Energy were depleted. What shocked me the most was that I couldn't perceive the loss until I completely ran out of it. That's why I collapsed suddenly. The tremendous consumption of Heavenly Origin Energy in such a short time exerted an enormous strain on my body, and I couldn't sense it happening."

Waremis contemplated the situation but wasn't certain. "We need to test it once again. Is it the usage of Heavenly Origin Energy that caused your exhaustion, or was it the manipulation of time power?"

"We can test that ourselves, can't we?" Rean responded. "Let me try using my Divine Origin Energy."

Roan glanced at him but remained silent. He was also interested to find out.

The twins had merged all three types of energy: Divine Origin Energy, Stellar Energy, and Soul Power. However, it didn't mean they couldn't employ each type individually. Rean couldn't manipulate time, but he could utilize Divine Origin Energy for other purposes, such as offensive attacks. He created a series of Light Element Arrows using his Divine Origin Energy and launched them into the sky. Afterward, he checked his remaining reserves of Divine Origin Energy. "I've consumed what I expected to. There's nothing amiss here."

Roan and Waremis tried it themselves. Similar to Rean, they utilized their Origin Energies as intended. "It seems the issue arises when attempting to use time power," concluded Waremis and Roan.

Spiegel understood it was his time. "Alright, let me give it a try again."
