Chapter 3073 We Need More Information
3073 We Need More Information
"But before that," Rean was still curious. "Would you mind telling us what race you are part of? Are you a part of this giant body or some kind of race that ended up living here?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Uruashu didn't mind and nodded. "We are part of the Charybdis Race. At the moment, you are inside our mother, the Charybdis Queen."
Yuan was shocked to hear about that. "For real?!"
Rean glanced at him and used his Spiritual Sense. 'You must be blind. Haven't you seen the shadow that manifests behind Tana when she uses her bloodline? Doesn't it look similar to our friends here?'
'Ah!' Only then did Yuan notice the similarities. 'It truly does...'
"Have you heard about us?" Uruashu asked as he guided Rean and Yuan out of the Charybdis's stomach. Rean switched back to normal voice. "That we did. We heard that the Charybdis is a Divine Demon Beast with a big mouth and countless tentacles. To think there are thousands of you inside this Charibdis Queen is quite mind-blowing."
Uruashu shook his head... was that even a head? It was hard to tell. "Although all of us here are part of the Charybdis Race, we aren't the real deal. We are more like our Mother's Blood, working inside her body to keep it going. We would only be considered real Charybdises once we exit her body, which can only be done with her permission. By now, it would be better to say that we are a half-product. If we exit without her consent, we will die instantly once outside her body's environment."
Finally, they left the stomach area and entered some of the blood vessels. There, Rean and Yuan had to submerge into the same dense liquid they did once they entered the 'blue rocks' area. Of course, now they knew those were probably the Charybdis Queen's tentacles.
It took Rean and Yuan two hours to move through the Charybdis Queen vessels until they exited in an open area. It was filled with dense Spiritual Energy, but that Spiritual Energy was the same as the one they found in the Charybdis Blood, too dirty. No, that was the wrong way to put it. When a Cultivator or Demon Beast absorbs Spiritual Energy into their Cores/Dantians, that Spiritual Energy becomes theirs. Even if someone else tries to use it, the energy will not be compatible with anyone else. That was exactly what was happening here. That Spiritual Energy wasn't really dirty or corrupted or anything. It simply had attuned to the Charybdis Queen's existence.
"Where are we?" Rean asked, curious. They weren't able to move very well because of the blood in the veins, so even though two hours went by, they only moved around 60 or so kilometers. There were many sockets on the blue walls, and the Charybdises seemed to live inside. Paying close attention with his Spiritual Sense, Rean could see that the Charybdises in those sockets seemed to connect their lower body to the blue walls. There was an exchange of that dense blood being made between the Charybdis Queen and all its underlings. "This is one of our mother's main organs, although it doesn't really have a specific name. We just like to call it refilling vessels. We connect to our mother here, and she provides us with Spiritual Energy and nutrients. Once we are done recharging our bodies, we spread all over her body and carry the many tasks that keeps her alive," Uruashu explained.
A few hundred meters down, Rean noticed a few more of the Charybdises, but those ones were twice as big as Uruashu and the rest. Uruashu brought Yuan and Rean down to them, quickly making the introductions. "Elders, these are the two foreigners we found in mother's stomach. They survived the Spatial Food Collector."
Rean and Yuan glanced at each other. It was pretty obvious the Spatial Rifts were the way the Charibdises got their food. Well, they weren't really Spatial Rifts since Rean had noticed the difference.
There were twelve of those bigger Charybdises, and they circled Rean and Yuan. "Are these the Sacred Envoys?"
"Even though legend says they would come, there has been no mention of their appearances."
"To be honest, I'm having a hard time believing it."
"Me too."
"So do I."
"But we can't risk being wrong either."
"That is also true."
"Agreed."
Rean finally decided to talk. "Hello, seniors. We are a little lost here. We might or might not be these envoys you mentioned. Would you mind explaining what this legend is about?"
The leading Charybdis, the biggest among the 'elders,' took to the front. "Very well. I'm Uruavis, the Charybdis in charge of all others and mother's representative. She only speaks to me, and I pass her words to all her underlings."
He continued. "Mother had once prophesized that one day, Sacred Envoys would arrive in her body. These envoys would be the ones to eliminate the Spiritual Confinement in which she finds herself at the moment. Ultimately, she would get herself free from the Werdlem Influence and sail free among the sea of stars once again. We, as her underlings, are to receive the envoys and give them all the support they need."
Rean and Yuan nodded. "And yet, she wasn't able to tell you what these Envoys would look like, right?"
"Exactly." Uruavis nodded. Rean glanced at Yuan, asking directly. 'It is pretty obvious the Charybdis Bloodline came from this place. Most likely, it was shared by the Charybdis Queen herself to an ancestor of the Golal Shark Race. Now that you know it, what do you want to do?'
Yuan was taken aback. What he want to do? He didn't even know why he was here to start with. 'What do you mean?'
Rean faintly smiled. 'If the Golal Sharks acquired some Charybdis Bloodline, why couldn't you?'
'Ah!' Yuan trembled for a moment. Indeed, if he also gets it... wouldn't he be the perfect match for Tana? No one would be able to context it. 'So... are we pretending to be the Sacred Envoys?'
Rean shrugged. 'Who said we aren't? We need more information.'
