Death... and me



"New option?" Rean and Roan were surprised to hear that and quickly touched the Soul Gem Orb. After pouring their Soul Origin Energy and Divine Sense into it, the options appeared in their minds.

[Starlight, Soul Power, and Divine Origin Energy Fusion - 1000000 Destiny Points]

They were aback by that. After all, they had already bought a similar option. It was the Energy and Soul Power Fusion. Now, it seemed like they could fuse Starlight Energy as well. "Doesn't that mean it can get even stronger? After all, our strength increased a lot last time when we fused Energy and Soul Power."

Celis found another point in this. "Kentucky and I were also able to fuse Soul Power and Divine Energy when we formed our connection. Will the same thing happen again if you buy that option?"

Kentucky immediately noticed a problem. "It shouldn't be possible, right? After all, neither you nor I use Starlight Energy. Starlight Energy is used to improve the body, but as Demon Beasts, our bodies are naturally stronger than Rean and Roan, especially mine. The cultivation techniques of humans don't even work with us, so even if we can make this fusion, we have no Starlight Energy to achieve that."

"That's true..." Celis had to admit Kentucky made sense.

Nonetheless, Rean and Roan were very interested in this new option. "So many things happened after we entered the Space Bending Realm. However, everything is so expensive... At the same time, we now understand why we also got a reward option for the cultivation of the three energies at the same time. It was most likely because we would be offered this fusion option. The system already expected that."

[Most likely,] Sister Orb agreed with them. [As you know, I don't have access to all the information that Soul Gem has within the system. Well, it is a good thing that the option at least appeared. The big problem is that both options cost a million Destiny Points each.]

That was indeed the biggest problem. They could get a lot stronger, but how long will it take to gather two million Destiny Points? Besides, they also have all the other upgrades to consider as well. 

"Let's not think about it now," Roan shook his head as he said, "once we get the first million, we can decide if we will buy it or not. There is no point in considering our options while we are so poor in Destiny Points."

Rean and the other immediately nodded.

Right after, Rean remembered something else. "Oh, right! Sister Orb, what is the next item for the Yin Yang Starlight Body Cultivation Technique?"

[Let me see...] Sister Orb rapidly checked the cultivation manual for the twins. [It is called Star Piece.]

"Star Piece? You mean, a real Star Piece?" Rean asked back.

[Seems like it. To be more specific, it is a piece of your bounded Stars.]

The twins immediately felt a headache. To cultivate the Starlight Body, one must connect themselves with a star. Later on, Roan found out that there was a specific star for each living being. If you connect with a star that isn't your real one, the Starlight Body becomes quite a terrible Body Cultivation Technique. Naturally, Roan found a method to find the location of a living being's real star and the twins connected to their stars. 

Rean and Roan's stars just happened to be orbiting each other. One was a White Dwarf, and the other was a Black Dwarf. However, that was not the problem. The problem was how far their own stars were from the Realm of Gods or basically any other location. First of all, the twins tried to fly out of the Realm of gods but found that there was some kind of force that completely prevented anyone from stepping outside. It was probably the same thing in any of the other Upper Realms.

Last but not least, both a White Dwarf and a Black Dwarf would have a ridiculously strong gravity, let alone how resistant they were. It wouldn't be an understatement to say that they were within the hardest materials in existence. Could they break a piece of the stars even if they can survive the Dwarves' gravity? Let's not talk about the fact they had to put such an extremely dangerous material into their bodies and refine it.

"Sister Orb, this is too ridiculous! How the hell can we accomplish that?" Sure enough, Rean immediately complained. Even Roan had a dark expression and had a rare moment of mutual feeling with Rean.

[It's naturally impossible for you two at the moment. However, it doesn't matter now. The pre-requisite to enter the Sixth Grade of the Starlight Body is to reach the Space-Time Realm. That's probably over a thousand years in the future, maybe thousands of years. Just ignore it for now.]

Rean sighed after hearing that. "Fine... I don't think it is possible anyway, but we will see in the future."

Roan then took his hand away from the Soul Gem Orb before looking at Kentucky. "Come at me. Let me check the strength of my body compared to yours."

Kentucky was already expecting something like that. "Sure, but you can't use weapons."

"Obviously! What's the point of this test if I don't use my body?" Roan didn't mind it at all.

They quickly got away before they launched at each other with full strength. Roan's Stelar Energy covered his fist, trying to test how good it would be. Kentucky didn't underestimate Roan's strength and quickly hardened his body to the maximum. His Regal Minokawa Bloodline lit up, causing the atmosphere around him to get under huge pressure.

Roan then threw his fist against Kentucky. Kentucky, on the other hand, suddenly flipped his body and used his legs and talons to meet Roan's fist.

*Bang!*

Demonic Qi and Starlight Energy spread from the shooking point. A crater immediately appeared below them as the shockwave and far and beyond. It was a truly terrifying exchange that far surpassed the level of an Initial Stage Space Bending Realm being.

Roan was then forced over a hundred meters back by the force of the impact before finally stabilizing his body. His hand was feeling quite numb, but there were no injuries left behind. As for Kentucky, he only retreated a few meters after that. It was obvious that Kentucky's Divine Demon Beast body was still stronger than Roan's. 

Nonetheless, Roan was very satisfied with the result. If it was before, he was sure he would have ended several hundred meters away. Not to mention that he would suffer a lot more than just a numb feeling in his hand. "This is quite good."

Kentucky wasn't as happy, though. "So unfair, my advantage as a Regal Minokawa keeps diminishing."

Celis didn't agree, though. "You are far from completely breaking the seal in your bloodline. You still have a lot to gain in the future."

Roan didn't continue as he walked to the side. "Alright, this is enough. I would rather test my strength against the swamp monsters and then go back to cultivate. Let's get out of here."

Finally, the twins' group left the Dimensional Realm and started their two hundred years of cultivation and training.
