Chapter 491 Eris and Agnes join (part 2)


    While inside of the forest things had slightly calmed down a bit, outside the ce was in a turmoil.


    Out of the around twenty thousand participants who entered, less than one thousand had soulmps linked to them, the number might sound a bit low, but we are talking about people who at least has one peak Transcending realm cultivator backing their respective force or family.


    That is enough to be considered a middle-ranked force in a middle ranked Ster System, so you can imagine the agitation caused when overnight around a third of those soulmps exploded.


    Envoys from all those forces which were native of the Star Clusters of the Fritz Ster System were sent right away to find out what was happening, since in previous years those talented members of the young generation rarely suffered a casualty.


    Imagine their surprise when they arrived and found a lot of elders of the Steel Tower sect working their asses of to repair the spatial formation that allowed them to enter into the Silicon Forest.


    In other words, they ones inside were trapped and the ones outside lost any kind of contact with them.


    Naturally all the envoys immediately demanded an exnation from the Steel Tower sect, since those spots weren''t free, they had to pay or exchange some rare resources for them, the patriarch of the sect was suddenly hit with tons of refund requests, that made his heart bleed.


    So, a decision was made, they will be using all the surveince nodes they had installed inside of the forest, to force their way in, it wasn''t exactly because the patriarch was afraid of those representatives from Star Clusters of the Fritz Ster System.


    He was worried that the Castle Armored sect will me him if their disciples die, and extort a lot of resources out of him as apensation, inparison the surveince nodes could be built once againter.


    So, now as a way to ease up the situation, it was announced that even Genesis Manifestation cultivators will be allowed to enter, so everyone was happy, those whose young generations were important, will be able to look for them and keep them safe.


    As for those who just sent cannon fodder, there was two options, if they were lucky enough, the elders will pick them up on their way while they look for resources, if not they will be dered lost in the action.


    Out of all the people who were cooperating, there was a group who wasn''t doing anything, that included a tall man with a small moustache, who was fully d in heavy armor, and was exuding a pressure that far surpassed the Genesis Manifestation realm, despite him being in it.


    Besides him, there was the gatekeeper elder in other words the gray-haired girl that earlier told the group from the Castle Armored sect to get lost if they didn''t have an entry pass, and also knocked out Renard''s former teammates.


    Also, there was a pair of elders, a middle-aged man and a woman wearing yellow and blue robes respectively, who were stuck to each other flirting, andstly two men wearing ck and green masks.


    Those were the top of the food chain currently present, which belonged to the Armored Castle sect, the Pleasure Pce of the Tsarai Ster System and the Marsh Domain of the Zoldia Ster System.


    The moustache guy approached the gray-haired girl who was casually waiting for the tune masters to finish their job, and after inspecting her from head to toe, he smirked.


    "Youngdy from the Fritz, how are you going topensate my Castle Armored sect if our disciples died?", he suggestively asked.


    Just to be met with a sharp silence, feeling insulted the moustache guy softly snorted, which made the others who weren''t doing anythingugh.


    "The Fritz have truly be thepdogs of those guys, what a shame, they can no longer be considered a threat to take our chance to be a high ranked Ster System", said the yellow robed man.


    "Mm, if they are treated like this in their own backyard, then they have fell too low", added the blue robed woman.


    The masked men just hoarselyughed, but the gray-haired girl ignored them all, she instead gazed at the only other two people present besides the previous, who weren''t cooperating or doing anything else.


    Which were a pair of beautiful women that were sitting far from anyone else.


    ''Those were the ones that were apanying the sole male core disciple of the Myriad upation sect, then why are they so calm, is that guy really so strong or…'', while she was lost in her thoughts, Eris and Agnes were having a secret conversation both are soul cultivators, so it''s not hard for them tomunicate using sound transmissions.


    Eris saw the bracelet with blue roses that Aster gifted her slightly glow and she smiled.


    ''Everything is prepared, I will try to make the space tunnel as stable as possible, but be ready in case something happens'', she said.


    ''Mm, don''t worry'', said Agnes.


    All the people here suddenly stopped working, arge array appeared on the ground and those who had decided to form groups gathered together, the formation illuminated and then everyone disappeared.


    …


    Inside of the Silicon Forest, Aster grabbed the cube ne which Eris lend him just in case and injected a lot of spirit sense into it, one of the faces of the cube lit up and the rune which meant "coordinate" appeared on it.


    The space in front of Aster waved before a small crack appeared on it, then under the surprised eyes of the girls, two different hands came out of the crack in the air, one of them was glowing in orange light, while the other was covered in a gauntlet made out of runes.


    "Crack!", with a single push, the crack on the space was erged and the figures of Eris and Agnes, came out of it, before it closed.


    "Phew, the spacews here are surely stronger than outside", said Eris as she let out a sigh of relief, her eyes glowed as she saw Agnes''s hand which was returning to normal, but she remained silent and instead looked at her surroundings.


    Before she snapped her fingers, the cube ne on Aster''s neck flew by itself returning to her hand, she didn''t do it to retrieve it from Aster, but because she immediately activated one of the formations prepared on it.


    The girls saw the four corners of the cube separating from it, and then flying off to form a cube of around two hundred square meters, the four corners then formed a cube of soul energy which hid them perfectly from the outside.


    Not even a secondter, the ground started shaking, some of the crystal trees started releasing light, asrge amounts of yin spirit beasts started appearing from all the directions.


    And that wasn''t all, a total of four different beastly roars echoed through all the extension of the forest, the sound was so strong that the air trembled, luckily Eris had deployed that formation earlier, so no one was affected by it.


    Still, as if it was previously discussed, the skies darkened until the light was so dim, everyone could only see around one meter ahead of them, Aster raised his head and his pupils contracted a bit.


    Thanks to one of the many new gaps that the crystal trees opened on the dome-like treetop, he saw that the two moons were covering two of the three sunspletely, not only that, they even blocked half of the remaining third one, apparently the two moons wererger than the suns, which resulted in this partial sr eclipse.


    Since the beasts didn''t detect anyone in the near area, they ignored this ce and rushed to where they could feel the presence of "food", gathered.


    "The guys at the center probably felt the sudden appearance of strong auras, so they decided to do their moves… I guess they aren''t peak Transcending realm spirit beasts for nothing, they are in the process of unlocking their wisdom", said Felicia.


    Aster nodded, not only there was a fourth spirit beast, but they were smart enough to start moving the very moment the elders on the Genesis Manifestation realm appeared inside the forest.


    The previous tremble, was caused because the yin obstruction that was blocking the middle area of the forest, disappeared, the problem is that now, the both the yin spirit beasts and the yang spirit beasts were agitated, and the two groups were moving towards the center of the forest.


    Killing and destroying everything on their way, the crystal trees had started to release the yang stored in their crystals and were killing the yin spirit beasts in mass.


    "No one will notice us while we are inside this barrier, let''s catch up and then decide what to do", said Eris as she sat down on the ground.


    Aster nodded and then proceeded to tell those two everything that happened, the story of the evil spirit and the origin of this ancient battlefield, as well as the gxy-scale formation and the treasure which was sealed at the center of the forest, which was probably the cause of the actions of the spirit beasts.


    "Yin Azure Pce huh?", Eris tried to make memory, to see if she has heard about that specific sect, some Divine Firmaments are near each other, and due to that their natives can go and return in a short period of time, but some are really far from each other.


    And virtually are only reachable if two strong forces that reside in them are allied, and built a cosmic gate, or at least that was the case before, but ording to Natasha and Charlotte, some natural portals between Divine Firmaments had started to appear randomly.


    "I have heard of them, if my memory doesn''t fail me, they are the force that rules over the Frozen Cloud Divine Firmament, they are formed of many ns who fight for the supremacy, individually each of the main branches should be on the same scale as my Heavenly Rose n, or Mylene''s Ash Nether n".


    "They use a different system than us though, all the ancestors of their respective families formed a council and they only move as a whole when an emergency is knocking at their door, in fact they don''t get along but tag along for survival, because of their neighbors, with which they are at war".


    "Still, to think there is a spirit ice in this ce, hearing notices of an elemental in a whole Divine Firmament is already hard enough, let alone finding it and you have found two of them in a Mortal ne… really where did I end up being dragged to", mumbled Eris.


    But ultimately, she shrugged and put all the me into the ck-haired youth which kept surprising her all the time.


    "So, what do you want to do?", she asked, to which Aster smirked.


    "Steal the treasure and then copse this ce, having an aggressive Divine Firmament with ess to the Heavenly Quadrants is a bad idea after all".


    Eris nodded, she made some calctions in her mind and then gave her verdict.


    "It can be done; can you show me that chain link which you mentioned?".


    Aster asked the girls to take some distance, before he waved his hand making the bright yellow chain link appear in his hand, just like earlier the thing tried to burn his hand on the spot, but Aster was protected by the paragon body, so there was no effect.


    Eris who was protecting herself with her spirit energy, inspected the runes that though had started to fade away, still had some effect over the chain link, after a couple of minutes of that, she smiled before saying.


    "I have a n, but for it to work we need to reach the center of this ce, and we need to find the leftover chain which is linked to the three suns, if it works then… forget about the spirit ice, we''ll get an even bigger treasure for ourselves".


    Aster''s eyes glowed, the spirit ice was for Aria definitely, but if he could get something which was beneficial for everyone then that was for the best.


    "The spirit beasts won''t stop now that they have made their move, let''s get going, the others will be arriving at this area soon too", he said.


    "Mm", the girls nodded, but this time they didn''t need to move separately, one of the advantages of having a skilled rune master in one''s group is the capacity of adaptation that ites with that.


    For example, right now, Eris made some gestures with her hands and the barrier which was hiding them, shrank but instead it started floating and advancing, and Eris was just using some of her soul energy, this was the might of the cube ne, which is an extremely rare Formation Core, with the capacity to makerge scale formations which are normally stationary, portable.


    Agnes who was chatting with the others, suddenly turned to see Aster and then pointed at the chain link which Aster was about to return to the mind space.


    "Can I look at that, Aster?", she asked.


    Aster nodded in response.


    "Sure, just be careful, this thing has so much yang, that just touching it produce yang mes".


    He then carefully handed the chain link to Agnes, who just covered her hand with ayer of spirit energy and then carelessly grabbed it.


    The yang mes tried to attack Agnes, but she just softly snorted and suffocated them violently, to manipte space one must be at least a Void Maniption realm cultivator, even if you can cross realms to fight, that doesn''t mean developing this ability.


    And yet, she and Eris managed to force their way through the space of the Silicon Forest, making Aster realize he might have underestimated their prowess.
