Chapter 2563: Gone

*Tremble!*

Sure enough, as soon as the Azum Dimensional Realm lost the aid from the Universe Foundation Fragment, it was the same as losing the core that kept it intact. The crumbling speed increased several times as the Spatial Storms and Rifts began to get dangerous, even for Rean and Roan.

"Time to go," Roan said as he flew in the direction of the nearest Altar. Rean, obviously, followed right behind.

Inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, Sister Orb closed the tunnel that connected to the outside world. The Fragment that got inside instantly smashed against the bigger Fragment at the core of the planet. Both Fragments once again turned into some kind of Dark and White Liquid before they reformed themselves. Now, the Fragment was even bigger, and Sister Orb could see it taking a specific shape.

[We got eight Fragments... Rean's Father, Turen, has another one that he uses to keep his own Dimensional Realm inside the Temporal Path, so we can go there and take it anytime we want. He is keeping it there for the time being, which means we have nine already. Another one is in Huban's hands, and with Rean's conclusion of his Blacksmith Training with everyone, he should be able to refine the Fragment to remove the Extinction Sphere's Energy from it. That makes ten Fragments...]

Sister Orb couldn't help but get a little excited. [Only four Fragments remain... Of those three, we know the Underworld Relic Fragment and the Fragment in Archangel Gabriel's hands. The third one is in Hutis Continent, according to Hyeoumu. I wonder where is the last one...]

Meanwhile, in the Azum Dimensional Realm, most of the angels had indeed left, and Azum City was in a state of chaos. All angels who teleported out through the altars warned the authorities there, so many high-level angels who were waiting in the city tried to check.

Yet, none of them dared to enter the Azum Dimensional Realm anymore. With their Spatial powers, they could easily tell how the Azum Dimensional Realm was collapsing. That would cause a chaos of Spatial Power where the Dimensional Realm exists, which would be dangerous even for them.

Hidden in the midst of the clouds, a little white bird flapped its wings, and its eyes looked at the entrance of the Azum Dimensional Realm. It was a simple Kuhirira Angel Bird, quite common in the Heavens. Yet, this one had one special difference from other birds of the same species... It didn't have one pair of wings, but twelve!

This was the symbol of an Archangel, the same as a Divinity Realm cultivator, and this one had an even more distinguishing characteristic. A thirteenth pair of wings was also present. It's just that this thirteenth pair seemed to not have a physical form, different from the other twelve pairs. It kept fading away and reappearing as if its host lacked something for it to take its complete physical form.

This Angel Bird's name was Sophia, and she was none other than one of the Semi-Celestial members of the Angel Races. Yes, she wasn't a humanoid angel like everyone else, but an Angel Beast instead. Even to this day, those who knew of her existence couldn't help but feel impressed. Her race wasn't known for being talented or having any kind of Divine Bloodline. Her race was as ordinary as it gets, and yet, she reached the pinnacle of the Universe with that ordinary Kuhirira Angel Bird bloodline of hers.

On her side, an Angel Rean and Roan knew quite well was standing in midair. "Seems like it started, senior Sophia." It was Waremis, the Head of the Holamenor Clan.

Sophia nodded. "Hum... so this is what you brats were talking about. The Azum Dimensional Realm won't last much longer this way. Yet, you know I can't intervene due to the agreement either. Unless a Semi-Celestial gets involved in whatever is causing this collapse, all I can do is watch."

Waremis nodded. "This is just precaution. If my friends' information was correct, the Azum Dimensional Realm might have been the prison for some being no one knows about. Yet, even he couldn't be certain and asked me to get ready just in case."

Naturally, the friends Waremis talked about were Rean and Roan. This wasn't bad news for the angels, though. Semi-

Celestials were extremely rare, and if there was really one in the Azum Dimensional Realm, the Angels definitely wanted to know. In the end, they were using Rean and Roan's own business to get their own answers.

Inside the Azum Dimensional Realm, Rean and Roan had already arrived at the altar. Unfortunately, their fears were concretized. After the Fragment was removed, all the altars stopped working. Rean and Roan couldn't teleport outside anymore.

"Well, we expected as much," Rean said with a sigh.

Roan then disappeared while calling Rean. 'What are you waiting for? Come inside. We will need to use the Circuitry Teleport Formation.'

Rean nodded and disappeared as well.

In the past, the twins wouldn't even consider such an idea. After all, teleporting in the midst of such a disturbed Spatial Environment was bound to shred their bodies. However, now it wasn't a problem anymore. Both Rean and Roan had a cultivation high enough to resist the destructive force of such a teleportation.

The only problem was the destination. When someone teleports in this kind of situation, it is impossible to set up an exit point. One would be swept by the Spatial Forces of the Universe before ending up in a completely random location. It could literally be anywhere: Heavens, Underworld, Realm of Gods, Mortal Realm... or, most likely, the Universe's empty void, which is by far the biggest part of the Universe.

Rean and Roan could only hope they wouldn't be teleported near a Blackhole, let alone inside. If that happened, they were fucked.

[You are certain you want to do it, right?] Sister Orb asked one last time.

"It's either this or staying in the Azum Dimensional Realm where death is certain," Roan mentioned as he and Rean stepped on the Circuitry Teleport Formation. "Go ahead, Sister Orb. Activate the teleport."

[Alright.]

Immediately, several Divine Stones were used to charge the teleport formation. Finally, a flash of silver light appeared for a second, and the twins were gone.
