*Tremble!*

As if hearing Roan's words, the entire palace suddenly trembled. At the same time, Darian's expression turned ugly as he cursed.

"Impossible!"

Rean's group didn't know what was happening, but they were certain that it wasn't good. 

The faint red light that covered the city constructions and its surroundings started to fade away as the vortex above the palace formed again. The vortex of Spiritual Energy and Water Element above the palace also began to take form. Not only that, but it looked even more chaotic than before.

Suddenly, Darian made a cut on his wrist as his blood began to flow into the Spiritual Energy Field formation together with Kentucky's. The fading red light once again intensified, forcing the Spiritual Energy Field to calm down once more. However, Darian didn't have a good look on his face. 

Obviously, Kentucky couldn't help but ask. Of course, he used Spiritual Sense Messages from now on so that the conversation wouldn't last more than a few seconds. 'What's happening? Why is the Spiritual Energy Field suddenly losing energy? It's as if our blood is being wasted.'

Darian nodded, responding, 'That's what's exactly happening. Someone or something is acting against the Spiritual Energy Field's core under the palace."'Following that, Darian looked at the battle outside. Phex and the Zasfins had reached a heated moment in their fight, and neither side would back down anytime soon. The first one to do so would definitely receive a backlash due to the raging energy. 'The Zasfins were waiting for this moment. I can't stop controlling the Spiritual Energy Field, and Phex can't come down to help.'

Rean couldn't help but ask, 'The city has a few Stage Seven and even Stage Eight Sea Demon Beasts. Can't you ask them to go see what's going on? Or could it be that the enemy down the palace is also as strong as you and Phex?'

Darian shook his head, answering, 'That's impossible. The core of the Spiritual Energy Field is protected by the ancient formation. Unless you're a Divine Demon Beast, you shouldn't be able to approach it.'

Roan narrowed his eyes. 'Divine Demon Beast? Then...one of the Divine Demon Beasts betrayed the alliance?'

The one to answer that was Kentucky, saying, 'No, I don't think that's the case. If there was another Divine Demon Beast nearby, Phex, Darian, and even I would have noticed it. Am I right, Darian?'

'Correct.' Darian nodded. 'Divine Bloodlines resonate with each other. Unless you have some type of skill capable of blocking it, it shouldn't be possible. Unless...'

'Unless what?' Kentucky asked in response.

Darian's expression was dark as he thought of a possibility. 'Unless the demon beast's level is too weak for us to perceive. A Divine Bloodline becomes more prominent the higher the stage of the demon beast. So, unless we use Spiritual Sense to detect it, we won't feel its bloodline. For example, we can't feel Kentucky's presence unless he gets close enough due to his Stage Five cultivation.'

Immediately, Rean's group understood what was happening. From what Phex said, there were only six Divine Demon Beasts in the world, including Kentucky. Four of them were at Stage Nine, leaving only two below that level. One of them was obviously Kentucky. As for the other...

'Gulan!' Kentucky said with a dark expression. There was only the Blue Luan in the end.

'That's weird. Isn't Gulan Phex's grandchild? Why would he do such a thing?' Rean asked.

Darian shook his head, saying, 'I don't know. This is only a possibility. Unless, of course, there's another Divine Demon Beast that we don't know of. Well, we didn't know about Kentucky until a while ago, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was another one.'

Kentucky agreed with Darian. 'That's right! Wasn't Gulan supposed to be in another Spiritual Energy Field? How come he appeared here? It doesn't make sense since the other Spiritual Energy Field is supposed to be quite far away.'

There came the issue. If it wasn't Gulan, then who could it be? However, it was at this moment that Rean's group noticed a problem. 'Wait! Where's Red?'

Immediately, the Spiritual Sense messages stopped as only the sounds of fighting outside could be heard. Rean looked everywhere and even used his Spiritual Sense together with his Soul Power. However, Red was nowhere to be found. 'It can't be Red, can it?'

Darian knew that Red was the rabbit they talked about a while ago. They had sent him outside the room since they were about to discuss some information about the Forbidden Zone. Darian also used his Spiritual Sense but could see that Red was nowhere in the palace. The only problem was that it wasn't possible to verify the core of the Spiritual Energy Field. Once again, it was protected against such things as well.

Darian then looked at Rean and Roan with a dark expression, asking, 'You brought that thing here, didn't you?'

Rean immediately nodded as he replied, 'We did. However, we only met him a while ago. Besides, we had no idea he was a Divine Demon Beast. Not only that, we didn't even know about this Spiritual Energy Field to start with. Also, is Red really a Divine Demon Beast?'

Kentucky confirmed Rean's words, saying, 'That's true. I was there when Red first appeared.

Rean tried to use his Spiritual Sense to reach underground to look for Red, but it was useless. 'Sister Orb did say that the level of the Formation Master who made this thing was definitely not something you could find on this planet. I guess it's normal that my Spiritual Sense can't reach underground.'

Darian didn't know whether to believe it or not. After all, if they were really planning such a thing, would they leave Kentucky in his grasp? Kentucky couldn't leave the center of the hall where Darian is located, after all.

Kentucky found a problem, though. 'Wait! If it's Red, how could Darian and Phex not notice his Divine Demon Beast Bloodline? Even I didn't notice anything in these months we stayed together. Although the distance can make it hard to detect low-level Divine Demon Beasts, Red was right in front of Phex and Darian just a moment ago. Still, they didn't feel anything.'

Rean then remembered something as he cursed, 'Shit! Red's special ability! Did you forget? I built a sensory formation that should be able to detect any demon beasts with cultivations above Stage Four. However, it simply didn't work on Red at all!'

'What do you mean?' Darian asked.

Rean then proceeded to explain Red's peculiarity. Be it his formations or his Spiritual Sense, Rean, Roan, and Kentucky couldn't feel his presence at all. At least, not while Red was trying to hide it.

Darian was surprised to hear that, muttering, 'A Blood Rabbit did that? It doesn't make sense. As far as I know, Blood Rabbits don't have such an ability.'

Although the conversation looked long, no more than a few seconds passed while they used Spiritual Sense to talk.

'What should we do, then?' Kentucky asked. After all, both he and Darian had clear signs of exhaustion. If their blood continued to be wasted like that, they would eventually run out of it. It was especially bad for Darian due to his level.

Unfortunately, Darian seemed desolate, saying, 'There's nothing we can do. Without a Divine Demon Beast's Bloodline, no one else can enter the core region of the Spiritual Energy Field. It's not like there's a barrier or anything. Instead, it's a separated dimension.'

'How did Red get close to it? Don't you have anyone protecting the place?' Roan asked. In fact, Rean and Kentucky were also curious about it. Since it's such an important area, shouldn't it be fully watched?

Darian nodded, responding, 'It is protected. Just like you said, there are quite a few Stage Seven and even two Stage Eight Demon Beasts there. I can only think that this rabbit used that skill that can hide itself from everyone's Spiritual Senses to pass without being detected.'

'That makes sense.' Roan had to admit Darian was right.

Rean then tried to access the Dimensional Realm. After all, he might be able to use the Circuitry Teleport Formation to teleport directly inside. However, Roan stopped him, telling him, 'Don't be stupid. If you do such a thing here, how will you explain the existence of our Dimensional Realm? As bad as it might look, the situation would be much worse for us if our secrets are found out.'

Sister Orb, who was hearing everything, also added. [Unfortunately for you two, even if you could hide the Dimensional Realm's existence, you wouldn't be able to enter. The System is considering the situation dangerous enough to block anyone from entering it. Simply put, you wouldn't be able to use the Circuitry Teleport Formation even if you wanted to.]

Rean pondered a bit before giving an idea, asking, 'Senior Darian. Do you mind if Roan and I try to enter it?'

Darian was taken aback. 'Didn't I say that only Divine Demon Beasts with Divine Bloodlines can enter it?'

Rean nodded in response before saying, 'You did. However, you should know already that Kentucky has a connection with Roan and me, right?'

Darian nodded after hearing that. Phex had talked about that. Also, he noticed that when he first saw Rean and Roan together with Kentucky.

Rean then continued, 'Maybe... just maybe...we might get access to this Dimensional Realm by using this connection.'

Darian narrowed his eyes, asking, 'And why should I trust you two that you won't make things worse?'

Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, 'Because at the moment, you have Kentucky in your hands. Besides, I don't think you have much choice with Phex locked in battle outside.'

Roan heard that plan but didn't say anything. For him, it would be a good chance to test his power. If Red really was a Divine Demon Beast, then it was worth a shot.

In the end, Darian gritted his teeth as he looked at Phex's situation. Not only did they need to finish repairing the Spiritual Energy Field for themselves, but Phex would also eventually lose if he kept using that much energy. Only with it repaired would the city's protection be up once again. 'Fine! I'll let the demon beasts guarding the entrance know that you're coming.'
