Davis sucked in a cold breath.
The Ti Divergent, Kronos Alistair, was a nace.
Unlike him, Kronos Alistair couldn't be sealed in ti-frozen spaces, which made him all the more threat to Heaven's Warriors. He looked into the Temporal Voidplane Ring more closely and saw the Ti Divergent moving very slowly within it.
In a few seconds, Kronos Alistair made his way to his wife Queen Nadija, who was just beside him, and touched her, causing her eyes to quiver, her gaze full of fear as though she couldn't see anything. His black-viridian darkness energy seed to be filled with the complexities of ti, even allowing her to move within the Temporal Voidplane Ring.
Just as Davis was wondering what Kronos Alistair was doing, he finally stopped, holding her and remaining silent.
Davis went into silence.
'I see… Kronos Alistair might be able to move within, but he necessarily can't get out without overpowering the Temporal Voidplane Ring or , although without an owner, it is possible that he could even bind it from within…'
'Since he created a ti-moving zone within the ti-frozen space, it should be possible to communicate with him…'
Davis tried sending him a soul transmission through the Temporal Voidplane Ring.
"Don't move around and cause trouble. It is better to stay still than wake up all the denizens within the ti-frozen space."
"Ah! It's you. It's great that we can communicate." Kronos Alistair replied.
"Stop encompassing Queen Nadija with your energy. You're only scaring her." Davis advised.
"Right… right."
"Darling, just a few monts. Since this space is frozen in ti, the next ti your eyes clear up, you will be outside. Don't worry." Kronos Alistair soothed Queen Nadija's thoughts.
No matter how she whimpered, her voice didn't echo out of their range, but with the black-viridian energy encompassing them, she was able to transmit her soul transmission.
"Understood. I'll… et you then…" Queen Nadija said tremblingly.
Kronos Alistair moved away, and Queen Nadija froze again.
Davis observed for a few more minutes before he sighed.
"It seems like you can't will yourself to stay frozen."
"My body and soul instinctively resist getting frozen in ti and space… there's no way around. Even if I get sealed in another ti-frozen space by Heaven's Warriors, ti will pass for perpetually, eventually dying of old age. It's a curse rather than a boon."
"…" Davis felt so pity.
However, he would never lower his guard. There was Nadia, Eldia, Calypsea, his son Lucian, and many more unknowns inside.
For safety reasons, he threw Kronos Alistair and Queen Nadija all the way to a corner of the vast space inside. It wasn't possible without the black-viridian energy throwing the ti-frozen space into a minor disarray, which was almost negligible since Kronos Alistair didn't retaliate with his full power.
Davis no longer tarried and summoned the Exalt Grade Flying Boat. He went towards the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region. Fortunately, the Exalt Grade Flying Boat was also imbued with a minor concealnt formation, so Davis didn't encounter any trouble, unlike the ti he moved within the Shard Regions.
While returning to the Shard Continent with Jade Aurora and the others, plenty of spirits blocked their path to attack them. The case was severe since they could recognize that all humans had left, and since Davis and the others didn't return the attack due to how powerful they were, they were besieged from all sides occasionally.
However, neither Davis nor the others gave any attention to these groups.
Without doing anything, they tanked the entirety of the attacks and finally reached the Shard Continent.
He especially held hands with Jade Aurora, protecting her from all attacks.
Ivy Aries then revealed to him that they were about to exit either way since the spaceti in the Ti-Attributed Mid-Level Shard Region had different flows of ti in different tunnels. It appeared that they could travel to the future and then return to the past, or rather, the present, which is the current ti period of the Three-Layered Universe.
Hence, within that spaceti, they had a lot of tries to return to the current period of the universe as long as they didn't ss up.
Nevertheless, she repeatedly thanked him for pulling them out since they couldn't afford to waste ti as the threat of closure lood over them.
Davis felt a bit guilty because the only reason the secret realm was closing so fast was because of him. Otherwise, he would've just let them be and later t them when he actually had ti to himself and listen to Tia's pleading voice.
[Everything would be for naught if you didn't accept them! Even if they found happiness with soone else, then it would be nothing but falsehood for !]
…
..
.
[If I said that I would be happy but never reach the peak of happiness without them by my side, would you reconsider?]
…
..
.
He still rembered Tia's outburst and her worried expressions. If she hadn't incessantly harped on him to give them a chance, he was sure he wouldn't have taken Jade Aurora's hand now. He didn't feel the urge as he did for Aila or Xiu Juili. But since he had taken her hand, he had no intention of letting it go, even wanting to greedily keep it.
Jade Aurora still seed to want him even after spending thirty years in that tispace. She even lied to him, which he never thought he would. He didn't activate Heart Intent since it might trigger resistance, which can be seen as him attacking others. Jade Aurora had totally flipped his mind at that mont, making him feel amused.
An honest and sincere Sect Master like her actually lied to make him accept her.
That alone conveyed her evergrowing desire to be with him, and he properly responded and even greedily kept it. If they were at fault for choosing a married man, then he was also at fault for growing his harem without properly taking care of the previous ones.
He was still feeling vexed over not treating Juili right, much less Aila, who already waited for a long ti. He didn't have much ti to spend with them, and then Zenova Artoria popped in as she broke her way through, trying to forcibly get into his life and suppress the others.
'Sigh… if only Zenova could be sincere and harmlessly approach instead… then there would've been no need for to feel this hateful, even though I like her so much…'
Davis raised his hand, clenching his palm before he threw his complicated romantic life into the back of his mind. Having arrived before the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region without encountering trouble, he felt exhilarated.
There was nothing that could trouble him within the Shard Regions.
He descended and made his way into the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region and then headed to the location where Azariel, Nadia, and Eterna's avatars previously visited. It was in a Shard Region three Shard Regions away from the Wrathful Aeons Shard Region. After making his way there, he searched for the hidden spatial vortex and actually found it.
"Holy elents… it still didn't c-" Davis closed his mouth.
He had thought that it would've closed by now, trapping him in the secret realm, but it didn't.
Looking at the way out, Davis's exhilaration grew into a mix of excitent and solemness. After entering this space, whether they were unprepared or prepared for him didn't matter. Depending on the circumstances, he would quickly attack the bottleneck and summon his Empyrean Stage Tribulation.
"Upper Realms other than the Hexadra Clan… don't fuck with ."
Davis's voice was low, almost as though talking to himself, "I have no enmity and have already warned you all that you won't be able to handle it if I were to survive, so don't bla for being utterly ruthless when I retaliate…"
His gaze sharpened as he saw the innurable battles he would be embroiled in the future, "Unless you stop hunting us down, it's an all-out war from here on out, Supre One of the Human Race…"
Davis moved, jumping, exercising, simulating a few scenarios upon exit where he could be ambushed or ignored, before rubbing the chill away from his hands, before he swooped into the spatial vortex.
It swallowed him whole and then spat him out.
He landed, taking the first huge step into the vast space of the Second Layer and looked around, quickly searching for any formations ready to trap him.
Simultaneously, sothing bubbled and burst within his soul space.
The Covenant!
A pure white sword was already stabbed into his soul essence by the edge. The mont it manifested, it began to drink, siphoning his soul force in vast, rciless torrents. It grew increasingly bright, absorbing an extre amount of soul force from him.
Inside the soul battle encounter, a white-robed man appeared holding the said sword, standing in the air yet grasping everything. He held the hilt of the sword with serene dominance, his form so radiant that devils would turn tail in his presence.
He was too radiant to be glimpsed, too radiant not be recognized as the wielder of the sword of judgnt.
"Hmph!"
Witnessing this scene unfolding within the soul, Davis coldly harrumphed, his voice full of disdain.
He didn't use any form of reincarnation energy, obliteration energy, chaos-destruction energy, or even mystical karmic ans for that matter.
Instead, his terrifying Will manifested.
His own Will ford in front of the white-robed man like a terrifying beast, a pair of eyes overlooking the entirety of the radiant white-robed man who swung down with his pure white sword.
Even within the extrely minute mont of the soul battle, ti seed to still.
Pitch-dark eyes opened within the soul domain, gazing down as though observing sothing already dead. Those eyes contained no hatred, no fury, but only exuded an absolute, suffocating pressure.
The white-robed man with the radiant sword still struck down at the nacing eyes.
However, before he could even finish the swing, he froze. The mont the blade descended, the space between intention and action seed to have collapsed. The radiance cracked as though the concept sustaining it had been broken down into fine motes of light.
Fine fractures spread across the white-robed figure, lines of void crawling through his form before he shattered and faded away, dispersing into the soul mist.
The Covenant holding Davis's soul essence hostage shattered without a sound.
"…" Davis heaved a breath as he felt seventy percent of his soul force gone in that instant, mostly drained by the Covenant.
As for what attack he had used, it wasn't even an attack.
It was his Will, clad in Level Three Obscure Intent of Enigmatic Heart Laws. He couldn't use it, but he learned that it would definitely act when provoked. It reacted to the activation of the Covenant after he stepped into the Upper Realm and utterly destroyed the Covenant.
Nevertheless, he didn't let his guard down, looking around for threats while he totally ignored the Covenant as if it were so minor inconvenience.
However, when he gazed behind, he saw the spatial vortex quiver and recede into the void.
"…"
At the sa mont Davis had gone speechless, many supre geniuses who hadn't made it out trying their luck or were totally unaware got stuck inside the secret realm, possibly never to make it out in this era.
Across all the galaxies, the Heaven's Warriors, the innurable races, and all those who were in front of the known dinsional pathways leading from the secret realm went dumbfounded.
The Elental Dinsion Secret Realm had co to an abrupt closure
