"How is it?" The leader asked Naffala straight away.
Naffala didn't close the 'door' while speaking. "We have received permission to let this group go through. From the looks of it, they aren't the only ones to arrive here. The orders are to bring them all together. As for his ID number, that is an ID of a Death Spirit who was considered dissipated many years ago."
"Dissipated?" Rean and the others looked at Roan.
Roan didn't mind explaining. "Death Spirits don't really 'die' like you lot. Instead, the Death Energy that makes our own bodies dissipates, which is quite different from the normal concept of death. Our souls, obviously, dissipate with our bodies. There is no such thing as reincarnation for us... Well, at least not until I was involved with Rean back then."
"Please, use this door," Naffala then called them forward. "This will bring you all straight into the Universal Transition Organization."
However, Roan didn't move. Instead, he asked sothing else. "What about my master?"
Before those Death Spirits could even answer, a voice echoed in everyone's minds. 'Tera, just get inside and co see . We need to talk about your little adventure on the other side.'
How could Roan not recognize that voice? It was definitely Kafan's voice, and even his mannerisms seed the sa as he rembered. Roan then turned to everyone and nodded. "It should be fine. Let's go."
Yet, Rean shook his head. "Actually, I will stay out and wait for you."
Roan pondered a bit and decided it was a good idea. As long as Rean was outside, they could use their connection with the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm for Roan to escape with the others. After all, Roan could enter the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm from another place and use Rean's position as an exit point. Besides, Rean didn't really need to be with the rest of the group. He could see everything Roan did as long as Roan shared his mories through their connection.
The only problem was that if Rean got too far away from Roan, both of them would lose access to the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm. That wasn't a problem, though. At this distance, it was definitely close enough for them to communicate.
Roan, Kentucky, and Essefy then moved in the door's direction. They had heard that they were supposed to be placed together with the rest of the other visitors. It's just that they didn't know if the other visitors were mbers of their group or the Vruve Organization.
Seeing that Rean wasn't moving, the leader quickly spoke. "You too. The orders are for everyone to co inside."
Yet, Rean shook his head. "Sorry, but I'm staying out. My brother here is the Death Spirit, not . Besides, I have other things to do." Before the Death Spirits could say anything, Rean disappeared without a trace.
"What?!" They all looked at that, not knowing how Rean did that. Even their senses of life energy couldn't perceive Rean's presence anymore.
Seeing the Death Spirits' reaction, Roan was satisfied. 'Just like when I was a Death Spirit myself. I had no conception of Spatial Powers and laws. Naturally, these Death Spirits can't perceive the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm entrance within the space.'
The entrance would stay right there, and Rean could watch the outside movents, so there was no need for him to go anywhere.
Roan then approached the door while saying. "Don't mind him. He just went to take a look at his own planet. He hasn't visited that for a long ti. Nonetheless, the rest of us are coming with you. That should be enough."
"This..." Naffala looked at the other two Death Spirits, especially at the leader. However, the leader also had no solution to that. "Forget it. If anyone asks anything on the other side, just say what happened. There wasn't much we could do anyway."
Naffala nodded and guided the rest. "Alright. Tera and his friends, please follow ."
As they passed through the door, Kentucky sent Roan a Divine Sense ssage. 'How can they open these spatial gates and not be able to feel the Soul Gem Dinsional Realm's entrance?'
Roan shook his head. 'This is not exactly a Spatial Gate. Your bloodline has quite so affinity with Spatial Power, doesn't it? You should be able to see that the Power of Space that controls this passage is totally different from the Sptial Gates we use with our cultivation energies.'
'Hum...' Kentucky focused on the tunnel they were passing through and had to admit Roan was right. 'Indeed... The Power of Space is definitely involved, but it feels sowhat weird. Is this that black and gray energy the Death Spirits use?'
'Exactly,' Roan answered. 'We learned how to use it to do our jobs as Soul Guiding Death Spirits. However, we truly don't know how to use it in any other way. How can I say it...? It's just that we never thought about using it differently before. Well, at least I didn't back when I was a Death Spirit. My master most likely can do much more with it now that I know he is an expert at Huban's level.'
The traversal didn't last long, just a few seconds. Once they exited, they weren't where Roan was expecting them. Roan thought the door would bring them to the Universal Transition Checkpoint. That's a place where all Death Spirits who are returning from their jobs have to pass by to report their results. He himself passed through that place countless tis.
The place they were brought to was, in fact, a lush and greeny land. There was a blue sky, trees, rivers, and everything you would find on a well-preserved planet. Of course, many of those plants they couldn't recognize as they ca from different places. Nonetheless, it was quite a beautiful place.
"Shit, not this place again." Roan recognized it. That's where the newborn Death Spirits would stay during the initial stages of their training. It was also where tired Death Spirits would spend so ti to recover from their job fatigue. It's just that Roan hated that place. "Well, if there is a place Kafan likes to stay, that place is definitely here."
