Chapter 2674 Never Again
'Did the Universe Sentience tell you how to destroy it? A Universe Foundation Fragment isn't something that can just be broken,' Rean commented.
'It did,' Kafan nodded. 'It gave me an item that, as long as it touches the Fragment, it will immediately teleport the Fragment outside of this Universe.'
'That's not exactly destroying, is it?' Roan asked back while narrowing his eyes.
Bunbun was more concerned about something else. 'No can do! Our Loporrit Race needs that Purple Crystal! Don't you dare to teleport it outside of the Universe!'
Indeed, the deal with the Loporrits was exactly that. It's just that Kafan didn't know about it. 'You... need it? Why?'
Roan was the one to answer as he glanced in Bunbun's direction. 'Their Birth Rate issue still persists to this day. The Loporrit's plan is to use an extremely high concentration of Chaos Laws and Energy to see if they can revert the bloodline evolution, recovering their reproduction abilities. The Chaos Laws and Energy in the environment, even counting the area around the tower and the wonder beasts, are not enough. Am I right?'
Roan did mention before he could guess what they wanted the Purple Crystal for. Seeing that Bunbun went silent for a moment proved that Roan's words were most likely correct. Bunbun didn't stay silent for long, though. 'Yes, that's exactly why we want the Purple Crystal... and something else as well. The other thing I can't tell you, though.'
Kafan narrowed his eyes. 'That makes things difficult. I really don't know how I would manage to separate the Fragment from the Purple Crystal that grew attached to it.'
Roan narrowed his eyes. 'The two souls that will be used to create a Death Spirit must be compatible with each other. Otherwise, it will fail. One soul will be the main soul, the one that will 'live' as a Death Spirit. The other soul will be sacrificed during the process.'
'This...' Bunbun could guess the rest. 'You used Laweia's Soul to create a Death Spirit Copy with Lolio as the main soul... Laweia was sacrificed so that Lolio could come back!'
Kafan sighed and nodded. 'Yes. You know it better than anyone else, Bunbun. Loporrits aren't demon beasts, humanoids, spirits, angels, or devils. They are an anomaly born out of their long-term interaction with Chaos Laws and Energy. Naturally, their souls are also different. No other race in the Universe would have a soul compatible with a Loporrit except for another Loporrit. Believe me, I tried to find one for a long, long time before I reached this decision.'
Roan wondered what he would do about Lolio once he put the Loporrit's soul inside Rean's Puppet. In any case, he couldn't complain about it. After all, Roan exists today because of that.
'Why didn't you come back?!' Bunbun asked, restless. 'If you had come back, we could definitely have used someone else's soul. We had Loporrits nearing their end who would gladly exchange their lives to save Lolio and Laweia. That's how important those two were for us! Why wait until now to finally come back here?!'
Before Kafan could answer, Roan asked something else. 'You entered the Spatial Distortion because you wanted to reach the Chaos Origin Source. After all, you wanted to advance to the Celestial Realm cultivation. You had the Universe Sentience itself in front of you. So, after you got Lolio and Laweia's Souls sealed, what did you do?'
Kafan bitterly smiled. 'You saw right through it, didn't you? I obviously asked the sentience to tell me the secret to entering the Celestial Realm. There was definitely my own desired involved in this question, but I also thought that I would have a better chance to save Laweia and Lolio if I was in the Celestial Realm.'
'And what did it tell you?' Rean and the others asked.
'That it could help me, however...' Kafan stopped for a moment, remembering that day clearly. 'If I advanced to the Celestial Realm, I would never be able to return to this Universe again.'
