Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 272: World's Core

"If you don't want to make any trouble, then co with . Look, if I wanted to kill you, I would already do it.

Do you think I will not be able to capture you like those two stupid wolves?"

While William ruminated on his choice, back at the castle, Alex and MingYue were planning their next move.

"Now that Talia has left, I think we should take the people in this world with us, Alex," MingYue suggested.

"We can only select a few. There are too many people, and how many could we even hold? My world is not an option.

The only place we could bring them is your secret realm. But the place isn't stable yet.

Suddenly having a huge influx of population will beco a problem, not to ntion the lack of land."

"Don't worry, King and Queen, now that I have started recovering my power, I also have a new ability.

Do both of you still rember Edonia?"

Both of them nodded, Alex still rembering the weird world where he t MingYue before.

"Yeah, actually, that planet is with now. Everything is in shambles there, with barely patches of land surviving."

Alex's eyes widened as he was surprised to hear Vesa say, "What do you an the world is with you?"

Vesa pointed at the green crystal on her chest. "It's here."

She then added, "Actually, the part of my old master that the King consud is the core of everything. That is also why my old master's consciousness is there."

"What do you an by core?" MingYue asked.

"My old master's essence is separated all over the universe, but that doesn't an it doesn't have any core.

The core is what allows the others to be lded together without any side effects; otherwise..." Vesa paused for a mont, then continued, "It would be like the other Vesa case."

"Isn't he a separate case because of Gluttony?" Alex asked.

"Yes and no. At that ti, all seven deadly sins were there, so you could say all Alucard parts were tainted in one way or another."

Hearing this, MingYue flinched, "What? You an I also have sothing like that in my body?"

"At the start, yes, but now no. I already ate it when the Queen's soul was linked to the King."

"So mine is not contaminated because it has Alucard inside, and this ans every single one we find we will need to fight the Vesa on it?" Alex asked.

At this point, he already understood what really happened. Both Thalia and the blood were already contaminated by Gluttony, and using it just hastened the progress.

"Yes, King. Now, to consu this world, we need to eat the world's core."

Based on Alex's understanding, a core is big and located deep inside the planet.

"Do you an the sa core as I? How could we even go there? Dig all the way?"

"Planet cores differ depending on the world level, King.

For example, I was created by the old progenitor, but in reality, it's not really correct since my real identity is the world spirit of Edonia."

Alex's lips twitched as he was already familiar with the whole concept. MingYue is also the sa.

They had read it over and over in cultivation novels. Heaven's will, world's will, universe's will.

Basically, when this big place gains sentience.

Vesa nodded her head, "The concept is similar, but world spirits actually only exist when there is too much magical energy.

For example, your old world before mana existed wouldn't have one, King."

"So where is this core? Since you say it's the sa, don't tell we need to find heaven's will or sothing?"

"Of course not. Only advanced worlds can move their world's core and hide it.

Just as you know, King, the world's core is located right in the center of the planet, but it's not the huge ball of heat that's spinning.

You need to go farther than that. Deep inside it, all the cores will barely be fist-sized for advanced worlds; for low-level worlds like this one, it will probably only be as big as our fingernail."

"That still doesn't change the fact we need to dig underground.

Then what will happen to this planet? If you eat it, the planet will quickly be hit by a huge catastrophe.

The whole atmosphere will collapse, followed by huge radiation exposure from the sun.

This will beco a domino effect, leading to other natural disasters."

"Don't worry about that, King. Of course, I have a way to eat it.

The people here will not even realize anything other than the sky suddenly starting to change."

"How about the land size? Will you get the sa mass?" Alex asked as the planet was filled with oceans and leviathan monsters on the outer layer.

If everything is moved, doesn't that an all of it will be transported?

He found the idea of having all the leviathans under his control interesting, but having the whole of Edonia turn into an ocean was not sothing he wanted.

"Of course not, King. I can only transport the sentient beings here.

As for the land and everything else, like natural resources, I couldn't move it just like that."

Alex realized this ant if he wanted to keep any, he would need to move it manually.

As for MingYue, hearing about the ocean world above, she then rembered sothing that made her realize the situation was grave.

"Wait, Alex, isn't the barrier separating the ocean and this place Alucard's essence?

Now that we took it, doesn't it an it's only a matter of ti before it breaks?"

"That…." Alex then realized she was right.

"So we need to kill Gluttony and get the world core before it cracks."

"One more thing, King. The castle here is acting as a rune formation that holds this realm together.

So you cannot absorb the life force stockpiled in here, except if you want to crash the whole realm now."
