Meanwhile, outside, Kentucky and Lily-Yu didn't stay still. Back when they saw the moment Rean, Roan, Jeskli and Luan disappeared. They quickly went up the mountain where the twins' group was last seen. Yet, once they got there, the same barrier that allowed the twins to go through completely blocked their path.
Because of that, they tried to use their strength to break it by attacking the barrier many times. Too bad that it was useless. None of them had anywhere near enough power to even shake that barrier. They could still see the cubic light barrier at the top of the mountain, but they couldn't see anything else. Rean, Roan, Luan, and Jeskli were nowhere to be found.
Of course, Kentucky could still tell that Rean and Roan were inside since they had their connection. It's just that he couldn't contact them. "What should we do..."
Lily-Yu looked at him and shook her head. "Senior Jeskli is a Divinity Realm Minokawa. If he can't come out with his power, then we definitely can't enter with ours. But at the same time, he is strong enough to protect the others."
Seeing that there was nothing he could do, Kentucky moved to the side and sat down. "Oh well, whatever. Let's just wait here and see what happens."
Lily was surprised to see his lack of interest. "Aren't you worried about them at all?"
Kentucky waved his wing. "Nope." Kentucky knew about the Circuitry Teleport Formation in the Dimensional Realm, after all. Even though it would be too risky to use such a thing in this messed space environment, they could still rely on it as a last trump card to escape. With their connection, Kentucky would know where they teleported even if they ended up on the other side of the Universe.
Back at the present, on the top of the mountain, Rean finally passed through the Cubic Light Barrier. The first thing he did once on the other side was not to look at what was happening. Instead, he tried to see if his Soul Connection with Roan was still active. 'You are still there?'
Roan, on the other side, nodded. 'Yes. Now, keep sharing your memories.'
Rean then put that worry behind his mind and focused on the vision ahead. "Oh!"
Looking a little more up the mountain, at its very top, he saw another Sphere of Golden and Silver Light. 'There is another one of those Time and Space barriers that the Fragments create, just like the one back in the Swamp of No Return,' Rean said while sharing his memories.
However, Rean could tell that the Sphere around this Fragment was several times more powerful. Also, Sister Orb immediately warned him.
[Rean, don't bring me out to the same thing as Roan did back then. There is a formation here working on that Sphere. As I said, I don't know what it is doing, but I would guess that it is trying to remove the Fragment from this place.]

Rean nodded and looked around the Sphere. He could see countless runes from the formation Sister Orb mentioned. They were creating just as many thin white threads that connected to the Sphere of Golden and Silver Light. "Is this formation draining the power of the Golden and Silver Light?" He wondered.
Rean then got closer to the formation, near one of its runes furthest from the top. Seeing that nothing happened, he touched the rune, trying to send his Divine Sense inside it to check. Yet, as soon as he did that, his mind was flooded with memories that weren't his own. "What the hell?!"
Rean quickly retracted his hand and jumped back as sweat came out of his whole body. Roan, who was obviously watching everything through their shared memories, also saw the memories that Rean acquired from the contact with the formation. 'That's weird. Why would this formation have memories embedded in it? The memories are all fragmented, so I can't make heads and tails of them, though.'
Yet Rean felt some familiarity from that thing. However, he knew it wasn't time to think about that. 'That doesn't make sense. What do memories have to do with anything happening here? We are talking about recovering the Fragment, right? Is there a reason for memories to be related to it? What do you think, Sister Orb?'
[I think memories have nothing to do with it from the very start. You didn't notice it because of the shock, but I did. The memories didn't come from the formation. Instead, they came from the Universe Foundation Fragment. From the breath moment you used your Divine Sense in the rune, I was able to confirm that the formation had no use other than dissipating the Golden and Silver Light Sphere of Time and Space Powers.]
Rean nodded. 'That means these memories had nothing to do with the Archangel, then. Still, why would the Fragment have memories embedded in it? Also... I kind of feel some familiarity with them. It's just that they are too fragmented for me to understand.'
[Hum... I doubt anyone has got close to this Fragment ever since it created the Floating Islands of Time. That said, these memories can only come from one source, the Archangel. He was the only one to stay close to it recently. With the Fragment's higher affinity with space and time compared to the other Fragments, maybe it somehow got in touch with the Archangel's past, thus the memories.]
Rean nodded. 'That is the only possible explanation since I doubt the Fragment would have kept memories from the time it was part of the Foundation Pillar. It's been way too long ago.'
Roan didn't seem to care about it, though. 'It doesn't matter. Can you stop the formation from taking the Fragment away?'
Rean pondered a bit and nodded. 'If Sister Orb isn't wrong and this formation truly only exists to wipe out the Sphere of Time and Space, then I can simply destroy the formation, and the Fragment will stabilize again.'
Sister Orb agreed. [Yes, that should be enough. However... I don't think you want to be anywhere near it at that time.]
'Why?' Rean and Roan asked at the same time.
[Isn't that obvious? How long has this formation been absorbing the Sphere? Where do you think all that ridiculous amount of energy is located? Obviously, it is the formation itself. If you destroy the formation...]
Rean felt a chill on his back. 'We would be dead for sure as the energy would simply explode.'
