Chapter 2998: Long Lost
Chapter 2998: Long Lost
The twins looked at that near the exit. Time was still moving extremely slowly for them, but with their Peak Divinity Realm Souls, they could see everything clearly with their Spiritual Senses. \'Seems like mommy is up,\' Rean thought for a moment.
*CREEEEEE!!!*
The giant ball of Sunlight Energy then began to change shape just like the previous one. However, it didn\'t end up in an ethereal form like the previous Golden Crow. This one was very tangible, although it was easier for Rean and Roan to feel it now. \'Definitely a Spirit. So Golden Crows are Spirits, uh?\'
The Ethereal Golden Crow was also slowed down. However, it only lasted a second before its body shined with even more Sunlight Energy. It broke free from the real Golden Crow\'s Time Restraint and attacked!
\'Shit!\' Rean and Roan wanted to leave that place immediately. With their puny Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivation, a clash between Space-Bending Realm beings would easily kill them.
*Zush!*
Suddenly, Klifon appeared by their side, seemingly not affected by the slowed time. He touched the twins\' bodies, and the time restraint was instantly lifted. "Let\'s go! That ghost is no match to Mother now that she is free to move." Klifon shot into the secret passage straight away.
The twins didn\'t need to hear it twice. Not only that... they were much, much faster than Klifon. They caught each of Klifon\'s wings and pulled him together, much to Klifon\'s surprise. They obviously hadn\'t shown their real power to Klifon yet.
*Creeeeee!!!*
*Creeeeeeeeee!!!*n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
*Boom, boom, boom, boom...*
The room where the real Golden Crow was sealed finally couldn\'t take it anymore and collapsed completely. The tower above it quickly followed. If the twins hadn\'t left, they would definitely have been smashed.
*Boom!*
The two Golden Crows, fake and real, exploded out of the debris and rose to the sky above the palace. The power of Sunlight Energy increased many times more around them, and the Transition Realm experts that had been watching nearby immediately got their defenses broken. Quite a few were burnt to a crisp, while others escaped with serious injuries.
As for the Elemental Transformation Realm experts that were nearby, one can already imagine what happened.
The twins were lucky, though. The secret passage they were following went underground, and it prevented most of the energy from reaching them. After a few minutes, they arrived at the division of paths and stopped.
"Phew..." Rean sighed. "Klifon, your mother seems quite angry."
Roan closed his eyes and used his Spiritual Sense to feel the surface. However, it was hard to do since they were too deep at the moment. "His mother... she wasn\'t just a Space-Bending Realm Golden Crow, was she?"
Rean agreed with Roan. "No doubt. Since she slowed down time, she must be in the Space- Time Realm at the very least. However, she also seemed very weakened since we could move a little bit with our cultivations."
Klifon heard all of that and felt even more confused. "Just... who are you two? You talk like you have seen Space-Time Realm experts before."
"Oh, don\'t pay much attention to us," Rean smiled while patting Klifon\'s back. "Anyway, your mother is free, so good for you. Still, aren\'t you a Sun Urpin? How come she is a Golden Crow? Also... do Sun Urpins reproduce? I thought they were Spirits born in places with rich Sunlight."
Klifon found it hard to swallow that lack of information. But then again, he was also hiding a lot of things until now. Klifon pondered a bit and finally me up his resolve.
*Zin...*
His body began to shine, and Sunlight Energy rushed into his body from the surroundings. Slowly, his form began to change. His Wings, his feathers, a third Legs quickly appeared... Not long after, a not-too-big Golden Crow appeared in front of the twins. "You aren\'t the only ones who can change your form, you know?"
Rean and Roan glanced at each other. It wasn\'t a secret they weren\'t using their real appearance, after all. "Fair enough."
Klifon then took the right path instead of the left he mentioned earlier. "Come, since you are with me, there is no need to run from the palace for now."
Outside, the Transition Realm experts and the lucky Elemental Transformation ones who were far enough initially all ran away. The two Golden Crows fought fiercely in the sky, and the Sunlight Energy was chaotic all over. Even Diliy and Kruwan, who had been locked in a tight fight, had to put aside their discontent and get away.
Yet, if anyone paid attention, they would easily see that the ethereal Golden Crow was losing. It was already in a precarious state, and now that it didn\'t manage to absorb the power of the Real Golden Crow, it was fated to lose.
*Creeee!*
Klifon\'s mother took a chance and grabbed the fake Golden Crow with its three legs and shot downwards.
*BOOM!*
An explosion of Sunlight Energy and Fire Element spread several kilometers and destroyed everything in its path. When things calmed down, one could see the fake Golden Crow pinned down by Klifon\'s mother. It struggled, trying to escape, but it simply didn\'t have the power to
do so.
Klifon\'s mother\'s eyes turned cold, and its beak suddenly penetrated the fake Golden Crow\'s body. It easily pierced a tiny core inside, causing the fake Golden Crow\'s demise to be set in stone. Its body finally collapsed, specs of Concentrated Sunlight Energy coming out of it. Klifon\'s Mother didn\'t waste it and absorbed everything until the fake Golden Crow disappeared completely.
Following that, she rose to the skies again and looked around. She could see many cultivators and other races everywhere in her palace. That angered the Golden Crow, and she was about to kill everyone. However, she suddenly felt something and looked in a different direction. Finally, she left, allowing everyone to sigh in relief.
Ten minutes later, a middle-aged woman was looking at Klifon with teary eyes. However, she quickly controlled herself before looking at the twins. "I saw what you did back there. Initially, I didn\'t give a shit and intended to get you killed anyway."
"Mother..." Klifon tried to intervene.
"You stay quiet!" She immediately stopped Klifon.
Rean and Roan didn\'t seem concerned, though. They couldn\'t see the red color of killing
intent, so, at least, she didn\'t seem to want to kill them.
Then, she approached the twins and used her Divine Energy to pull them closer and...
*sniffffffffffff...*
sniffed the twins deeply and for a long time, much to the twins\' confusion. That was quite an
awkward situation.
"You two..." She was certain now. "your scent... it has a very tiny, almost imperceptible amount of my friends\' scent on you. No... it is more like a connection of sorts, connected to
the soul..."
Rean and Roan were taken aback. "Your... friend?"
The woman nodded. "Ploto-Ume and Ratria-Ket. Do you know them?"
Rean and Roan froze for a moment. They have never met them, but they surely know who they
are. Kentucky\'s long-disappeared parents!
