Death... and me



Immediately, Rean and the others noticed that they were enveloped in a kind of Spatial Bubble before being lifted from the ground. [This Spatial Barrier will keep you safe while the system modifies the Dimensional Realm,] Sister Orb quickly warned them.

Everyone nodded and looked around. Sure enough, Spatial tears appeared everywhere, crashing against the land from all sides. The Spatial Border of the Dimensional Realm was the first to break apart, causing Spatial Storms to enter the Dimensional Realm.

"This is quite brutal..." It was the first time they saw the transformations of the Dimensional Realm up close. It was even more apparent for Rean and Roan. After all, they could use their connection with the Dimensional Realm to see the entire extent of its territory all at once.

Finally, the Spatial Borders began to expand outwards. At the same time, new land began to appear. Just like before, it was basically barren lands, mountains and water without life. Let's not forget that all the plant life that exists in the Dimensional Realm at the moment was put there by Celis while the Demon Beasts were brought by the twins. 

However, Rean quickly noticed something. "Hum... Sister Orb, how come I can't feel our connection with the outside world?"

[Oh, that's because the system can't create a connection with the outside world either. You will need to wait for the upgrade to finish before you can come out of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.] Sister Orb explained.

"Wouldn't that make us vulnerable if someone finds the entrance we created outside?" Roan obviously had his concerns.

[Don't worry,] Sister Orb wasn't afraid, though. [Since the connection with the outside world can't be established, the entrance you left behind is completely sealed. It is still there, but it can't be felt at all. Even a Divinity Realm being standing right on its side wouldn't be able to tell it was there.]

Roan nodded. "As long as it is safe, I don't mind waiting."

Luan used his eyes to watch the changes and was impressed by all the Spatial changes happening. "This is truly mind-blowing. I thought the wall that protected Sesame's land was incredible, but this is simply on another league altogether."

However, the one who was truly shocked was Hex, the Universe Space Temporal Beacon. [You guys... just what is this? How come you can create a planet this easily?]

"Planet?" Everyone looked at Hex with puzzled expressions. "What do you mean by 'planet?'" 

However, Rean quickly understood. "Oh, you mean the World Essence?" One must remember that the Dimensional Realm was capable of creating World Essence, which was the same thing that planets could naturally do. "It's not because this is a planet. It's just that our system has the ability to create some of it. Don't get the wrong idea, though. The amount of World Essence the system can create compared to a real planet is just not worth mentioning at all."

[World Essence? What are you talking about? It might be a rare thing for you to create World Essence, but it definitely isn't anything impressive according to the records inside my memory.] Hex didn't seem to care about that. [What I'm talking about is that this place is transforming into a real planet at the moment.]

This time, everyone was taken aback for real. "Becoming a real planet?"

Rean and Roan quickly focused their minds on the Dimensional Realm in its entirety, getting kind of a bird's eye view from high above. Sure enough, they quickly noticed something. The new land was curving outwards. If it continued like that, the Dimensional Realm Land would eventually become a round-shaped thing, and a really big one at that. "It seems like he is telling... the truth?"

Roan tried to see the Dimensional Realm from another angle. "If this extension continues taking this shape, the Dimensional Realm will indeed take a planet shape. If I'm not wrong, it will have around 18000 kilometers of circumference. Sister Orb, the Dimensional Realm only had 300 kilometers before, and it was flat land. Is it truly turning into a planet? Also, isn't this increase in size just way bigger than we thought?"

[This is something the system decided by itself. Even I can't tell what Destiny Energy, which is basically Destiny Points, can cause to the system. From what I can see, it is indeed taking the shape of a planet.]

Everyone then just watched as all the crazy stuff happened around them.

Celis also had his connection with his own saplings around the Dimensional Realm. Just like before, he could tell that they were being spread around the new land of the Dimensional Realm as they were responsible for the extra absorption of Divine Energy from outside. "It seems to be right... However... Isn't this thing a little too slow?"

Rean and Roan immediately nodded. "Yes, it is truly slow."

They weren't wrong. After observing the changes for a while, they understood that the expansion of the Dimensional Realm's planet was quite sluggish. "Just how long will it take until this upgrade finishes at this rate?"

Sister Orb calculated the speed of the upgrade and reached an answer in a few seconds. [If it stays like this... it will take two and a half years...]

"What?!" Everyone looked at Sister Orb. "That's too long. Are we going to stay still inside these Spatial Bubbles during all this time?"

Kentucky was more worried about something else. "It isn't a big deal for us since we have high cultivations. But what about the new Demon Beasts? All the Demon Beasts we got from Sesame's land are Stage Two Demon Beasts. They need to eat and drink to survive, you know?"

Sesame was obviously the one most concerned about it. After all, that also included the members of his village. "The people of the village will not survive two and a half years."

Just as Sister Orb was thinking to try and solve the problem, a change suddenly happened. Golden Light began to envelop the living beings' Spatial Bubbles! "This is... Time Light!"
