[Different from the smaller Universes, the experts in the Rank A Universes don’t see much of a difference between staying there or living in the Werdlem Universe.]
Sister Orb continued. [As you know, although the concentration of energy isn’t as rich as the Werdlem Universe, it is pretty close. Above all, you have almost similar chances of reaching the Peak Stage of the Divinity Realm, with the A-ranked universes slightly behind.]
[In fact, considering the competition in that Rank S Universe, it isn’t wrong to say that you have better chances here than there. That’s what I’ve found so far regarding the differences between the nine Rank A Universes and the only Rank S one.]
[Because of that, you don’t see things like Rank A Universe residents trying to move to the Werdlem Universe if they have the chance. Of course, many still wish to do it, but it is nothing that concerns the Werdlem Universe that much. The majority know that they don’t gain much by being there or here.]
[Now, here’s the interesting part. It is precisely because the Werdlem Universe doesn’t have to be worried about mass immigration that visiting it is a lot less complicated.]
[All the Great Void Shifters are allowed to send Rank A Experts to Werdlem Universe. Or, to be more specific, you can contact the Werdlem Empire and request the Great Void Shifters here to connect with their shifters there.]
[Of course, there are so requirents. First, you have to pay for the shifter’s cost yourself. That isn’t a problem for us since we have plenty of high-level Divine Stones. The second requirent is cultivation level. Only Space-Ti Realm experts and above can make that requirent.]
[The last requirent, however, is a little bit more complicated. Of course, it is countless tis easier than moving from Rank B Universes and below to the Werdlem Universe. Still, this is where you might struggle. The last requirent is that you must have a backer in the Werdlem Universe.]
The twins’ group nodded. The first and second requirents were indeed very easy, but the third...
"Wait," Kentucky intervened. "What about the fact that everyone from Rank A Universes always goes to the Werdlem Universe when they see they can try to reach the Celestial Realm? Aren’t they all allowed to do it? Could it be that every single one of them has a backer?"
[More or less,] Sister Orb explained. [What they have is a connection with the main powers of the Rank A Universes. Simply put, those who manage to reach the Peak Stage of the Divinity Realm and have their Celestial Laws absorbed. They go after the main powers and join them in exchange for contracts, items, labor, or whatever those powers ask from them. Once that is done, those powers contact their higher-ups in the Werdlem Universe and arrange for their transfer there.]
[If they manage to reach the Celestial Realm, great! Those who were backing them will have a new Celestial Realm Expert to work for them or get sothing else they already agreed upon earlier. If they fail, it won’t matter. They aren’t paying for the Great Void Shifter usage anyway. Above all, that doesn’t an those who failed can’t try again.]
Roan snorted. "That’s a very nice way for those powers to ensure they will continue at the top without spending anything. They never lose; all resources gather around them, and that only strengthens their bases. It is probably hard as hell for any other power to enter their midst."
[Oh, you can be sure it is. After all, to do what they do, you will need reliable and strong contacts in the Werdlem Universe itself. Well, all of that matters little to us. What matters here is that you will have to join one of these powers, see what they will ask of you, and pay them. That’s how you get a backer in the Werdlem Universe during the ti you stay there.]
"During the ti you stay there..." Rean noticed the nuance. "So, even if we get a backer, we can only go to the Werdlem Universe temporarily, is it?"
[Yeap. The longest you can stay there is a hundred years. After that, you will be automatically teleported back to the Great Void Shifter facility, being sent back the next ti the formation activates. No one tries to hide or stay. After all, they have your ID and can make you lose all access to the cultivation energies of the world, especially there.]
"We don’t really have that problem..." Kentucky comnted.
[No, but if we force our stay, they will know we did that, and these new identities we created would beco useless. Do you really want to lose them and start all this cultivation pretense, weak-to-strong shit?]
They all shook their heads. Of course, they didn’t.
[I thought as much. So, if you decide to go to the Werdlem Main Universe, you’d better follow all the rules.]
"That isn’t an issue." Roan had no intention of causing trouble. "The only question is whether our real identities as outsiders, or maybe as Balance Breakers, would be found if we go there. As for the hundred-year limit, we don’t really have to worry about it. We only need one chance to connect to the Celestial Plane, and the rest will follow."
"Are you sure?" Celis asked. "There are countless Peak Stage Divinity Realm Experts who absorbed their Celestial Laws. And yet, even in the Werdlem Universe, the average is only a single success every one hundred years."
[Celis is right, but not entirely,] Sister Orb added. [The problem is still the sa one as the problem with BH2, 3, and 4. There aren’t enough breaches for everyone to try to break through. Even the Werdlem Universe’s Great Void Black Hole can only cause so many breaches to happen for those trying to connect to the Celestial Plane.]
[Sure, they have one new Celestial Realm Expert every hundred years or so because they have a lot more breaches, but that doesn’t change the fact that the queue is enormous. If everyone had access to breaches anyti they wanted, I think we would see a few per year at the very least.]
Roan nodded. "The Werdlem Universe doesn’t only have to arrange slots for their own experts, they also accommodate everyone from the nine Rank A Universes. Looks like a lot, but if you think about how BH2, 3, and 4 have to work with all Rank B and C Universes, which are many tis more nurous, that is actually nothing much."
[Precisely. At the mont, the Werdlem Universe uses a rotation system. The waiting ti for those who wish to approach BH1 is around 1400 years. That is way, way less than Bh2, 3, and 4 by a vast margin.]
"Wait..." Rean narrowed his eyes. "But you can’t stay in the Werdlem Universe for more than a hundred years, isn’t it?"
[Oh, you don’t need to go there straight away. You can reserve a slot ahead of ti and only go when your ti is getting close. Of course, you still need your backer for that.]
They had to reach a decision. "Ignore the risk of our system being detected and go to the Werdlem Empire through the proper channels... or use the BH3 and likely have to drop our identities we worked so much to build."
"I say we go to BH3," Celis suddenly said.
"I know you want to cultivate, but we need to be patient here," Rean warned him.
Celis wasn’t thinking of that. "No, you misunderstood . The reason we need to go to BH3 is quite simple. Our identities won’t last forever. That woman, Caladara, still knows we are outsiders. Sooner or later, she will understand we have no backers whatsoever. At that point, our identities will beco aningless. We still haven’t gotten rid of her power that helps cover our outsider traits, just so we wouldn’t alarm her."
Celis continued. "Yes, I was the one who said that using BH3 would make it hard to explain how we got to the Celestial Realm that easily. That our identities would be at risk. But then again, if we consider Caladara’s existence, our identities have been at risk ever since we t her."
Everyone understood. Caladara made the whole difference. "BH3 it is then."
