At this mont, an eerie, corporeal voice rang in every single living mind within the Slum District.
"Pitiful Lost Souls, rejoice; your salvation is here!
"Today, at this very instant, you shall all die and shred your weak flesh and be reborn anew as the superior being of Darkness and march against those who ca in your way!
"Reborn and beco part of Dark Skeleton Dinsion!"
Cyrus's felt his heart palpitated when he heard this voice directly into his head, and his expression was extrely grave.
He glanced at Rita, who was as spooked and confused as everyone else since those subtle words didn't make any sense.
Right after the voice vanished, the soul winds suddenly intensified, and this ti those winds beca visible to the naked eye. That murky wind started to disrupt the vision.
But eyesight was the least of anyone's problems because that murky wind was so cold that the surrounding people started to wail without stopping.
"ahhh… Cyrus, I-I can't endure this cold…." Even Rita let loose a shrill as she tightly clinched Cyrus's hand.
"Circulate your Qi according to your cultivation technique quickly. If you want to live, you must break through right now!" Cyrus hurriedly yelled with a pale face.
The truth was he was now also getting effective by the murky soul winds, and he could only endure primarily because of his unique cultivation system. He was really far more resilient than Rita.
But still, it didn't an he could prolong this exposure in the soul wind. He had to find another way to get out of this place as quickly as possible, or he might not survive for long.
Rita gritted her teeth, did as Cyrus told her to, and sat down to start cultivating right there despite her intense pain.
She was already exhausted because of her early Qi consumption and wasn't in any condition to break through. But as she felt death approaching, she didn't want to give up without even trying.
She didn't want to lose this life, not when she had a bright future ahead of her, and… mostly because she didn't want to part with Cyrus.
Cyrus looked at Rita sitting cross-legged and started to circulate her Qi. He had already taught her the chants and breathing technique of Body Qi Tempering Realm during their stay in District-G.
'It shouldn't be any problem as long as she can endure the Soul Winds. Even in this state, she has a very high chance of breaking into the Body Qi Tempering Realm. The real problem is what I'm going to do?' Cyrus thought gravely as he looked at his surroundings with a gloomy expression.
The murky winds had already made his vision blur, and those wails also beca distant before they completely vanished, and the only sound remaining was those eerie winds.
Having no other choice, Cyrus instantly tried to use a cultivation technique to acquire Qi to use a soul-defensive spell.
But to his horror, no matter which cultivation technique he uses, at the very last mont, when the breathing technique is about to be complete, it would instantly disrupted by so mysterious force.
This greatly alard him, and he instantly guessed it was sothing to do with the system. No, he was sure of it!
However, before he could question the system, its emotionless static voice rang within his head as a white translucent panel materialized in front of him.

Cyrus was speechless hearing and seeing all those notifications and this peculiar new mission.
However, what left him sowhat mystified was that the system was aware of the surrounding situation. So, it was definitely a plus for him.
He quickly asked, "System, just what is a Dinsion, and how could the underworld descend into the mortal realm without any consequences?"
"[User has to search for the secret of the Dinsion formation yourself!]
"[All the system can reveal is that a Dinsion is a space between two worlds, and this space governs by different sets of rules than User is aware of.]
Cyrus's expression changed when he heard the last lines, and he quickly blurted, "Space between two worlds? Then you an I can't get out of this place?!"
Truth be told, he knew about secret realms ford between vast spaces, but he had never heard of Dinsions before, which had their own set of rules. Not even God could pull the Underworld to a secret space like this.
This was simply unheard of, and there were no records about it. That's why he was shocked when he heard he was in a separate space of two worlds.
"[First, please open the Lust Sword Quest and you will understand!]"
The system left him this mysterious sentence before shutting up.
Cyrus was now sowhat calm down since he at least knew what was going on, and this place was not the true Underworld. Because if the system told him that he sohow had entered the true Underworld, then there was really no survival with his ager strength.
So, he quickly opened this Lust Sword Quest, which was exclusive to Lust Sword, not for him.

Now Cyrus was really clueless because, except for the killing part, he didn't understand anything at all, especially about this Dinsion Core and where to find it.
So, he could only turn to the system, "Now, can you please explain where I should find this Guardian and this Dinsion Core? Furthermore, how strong would be this Guardian, who I have to kill, and can I leave after killing this Guardian?"
"[User will find the Dinsion Guard right at the point where this Dinsion was triggered, and the Dinsion Core will also be there since a Dinsion Guardian can't leave the Dinsion Core alone for long.]
"[As for the Guardian's strength, it is directly related to the Dinsion Rank. Right now, this Dinsion is at its lowest rank, Iron. But this isn't its final rank because it is a growth-type dinsion.]
"[This ans it can evolve further and increase its rank, which will automatically make the Dinsion Guardian evolve in rank as well.]
"[According to the system's estimate, this Dinsion should be able to raise up to Silver Rank with the resources available to it before it spreads in both worlds and annex more areas into it to grow further!]
"[Lastly, the User can naturally leave when you acquire the Dinsion Core. Because the mont Dinsion Core was removed from its place, the Dinsion will cease to exist, and you will return to your entry point.]"
Cyrus's expression was gloomy when he heard the part about the growth thing, and he finally understood what it ant by 'Growth Type.'
He gravely questioned, "Can you please elaborate on the strength where I could understand it clearly?
"Lastly, you said the 'current resources available' to the Dinsion and part about the annexing the area. What does that an?
"What kind of resources does this Dinsion need to grow? If I can stop the supply of them, then I can easily stop its advance."
"[At Iron Rank, the Dinsion Guardian Should be at Tier-10 Mortal Rank. With every rank increase, its strength cap will double. This ans, at bronze rank, its strength cap will increase by 20 more tiers. While at Silver rank, its strength cap will increase by 40 more tiers.]
"[As for what kind of resources a dinsion is required to grow, every Dinsion is different in this aspect, and you have to research it on your own. Sa for annexing the area. This is also sothing you should explore yourself.]
"[The system has already provided the User with enough basic knowledge about a Dinsion and growth type Dinsion. No further knowledge will be divulged!]"
Cyrus was now completely silent as those soul winds blew past him and made him tremble slightly. His usually tranquil and indifferent eyes were filled with worry at this mont.
But before he could collect himself, the system voice rang once again, and Cyrus instantly cursed when he heard what it said despite his godly ntality.
"[Please forgive the system. There is one last basic thing you should know about a Dinsion. There are not just Dinsion Guardians in a Dinsion, there are minions as well, and they also have a growth cap half of the Dinsion Guardian!]"
"Fuck!"
