Re:Immortal

"What is going on?" Muttered Silas as he looked at the various prostrating people on the ground.

Even though neither he nor Omis flaunted their auras, just their mere presence was enough to overwhelm the cultivators present.

Coming face to face with them, it was no wonder that they would be forced to their knees. What Silas found strange, however, was the fact that they looked at them with worshipping eyes, pushing their heads even further to the ground!

A rapid scan of the area and Silas was quickly able to spot the sculptures deciphering both Omis and Addi at the foot of the mountain. Turning his head back to look at the culprit next to him, Silas still found his face to be unreadable as he looked at the scene below.

"Mind explaining what happened here?" He asked while waving his hands at the spectacle below.

Turning to look at him, Omis gave an almost bashful smile before replying.

"Well, it just sorts of happened you see." He grinned back in reply.

"Ah, Let's just go shall we." Answered Silas with a sigh.

Giving a nod, the duo turned into two streaks of light that disappeared in the distance leaving the onlookers in awe.

"Did you see that!"

"Yes! The mentor is back!"

"Hurry and send the news back to the sect, they must know!"

"He wasn't alone too."

"Yes, by the gods it seems that more celestials have survived heaven's fall!"

"This is huge news!"

A commotion was quickly started after the group left, leaving a group of mortal cultivators bustling around. Soon news of the Immortal mentor and his new companions emerging in the Mortal realm again swept the land shocking everyone once more.

*******

"So where is this alchemist you speak of?" Asked Omis. They had been flying for quite the distance, and it did not seem like Silas was heading back to his sect.

"She lives at the edge of the world, near the sea." Answered back, Silas.

"Wait 'she'?" Said Omis in curiosity.

Throwing him a side glance, Silas replied.

"Is there any problem with that mister Omis?"

"Ah, no not at all. I was just surprised a little."

"En, we will be arriving soon."

Soon, the group arrived at the edge of the continent. Omis with Lu Lu in his arms and Silas stood quietly on top of the giant mass of land.

Right in front of them, the continent ended abruptly, it was as if a sword had cleanly shaved it off leaving the raging black sea further ahead.

Omis had passed by this place once since he transmigrated, and several times when he was still playing the game, but this was the first time he actually took his time and stood where he was standing.

Usually, when he only moved past here in the passage towards or from the 'Underworld' he never really took his time to stop and look at the scenery.

The land they were on was brown-ish and devoid of any greenery, there was no grass no trees, nothing but brown-ish soil all over.

In front of them, the land ended abruptly as if it was cleanly shaved leaving a massive cliff behind. The black raging sea below crashed against the land causing the water to rise like giant mountains as it came in contact with the continent.

"This is where the 'alchemist' lives?" Asked Omis in apprehension.

Silas simply nodded before he turned around and started walking in a random direction confusing Omis even further.

Following after him, Omis was confused as the land surrounding them was barren for hundreds of kilometers, where could this alchemist be hiding? Below the ground? He thought as he sent his divine sense to scan their immediate surroundings but to no avail.

Soon, however, he got his answer when Silas randomly stopped and tapped on the empty air in front of him.

"What the?" Muttered Omis before the illusion dropped.

What was left behind was a tall three floors pagoda standing there.

"How did I not sense it? I clearly moved my divine sense over this place."

Chuckling, Silas replied.

"It's quite easy to miss, the barrier here is the pride of our sect." He said as he looked at the barely visible dome-shaped shield surrounding the pagoda with eyes full of nostalgia.

"Wait your sect? I thought the 'alchemist' wasn't part of your sect?"

"Oh, she isn't." He answered.

"Silas?" Asked a voice as soft and murmurous as wings.

Turning his attention to the entrance of the pagoda, Omis's eyes rested over her. A petite body, that could be mistaken for that of a child, long silky blond hair, and a face that of an angel.

"Dina." Said Silas, a wide smile taking over his face.

He slowly walked closer to the pagoda's front door, Omis confused yet still followed after him. Silas then pulled her to his embrace without saying anything, she in turn simply return his hug with a gentle smile.

"It's great to see you doing well dear." She said as the two pulled away from each other.

"I see you still locked yourself away from everything."

Giving out a gentle laugh in response she answered.

"Like you are any better, I'm rather surprised to see you at my front door."

"Ah, yes! Dina this is Omis, a newly awakened 'Original' and a good friend of mine." Added Silas as he pointed at Omis.

Dina looked at him with a curious glance before grabbing the sides of her white dress and giving a small courteous bow.

"A pleasure to meet you, sir Omis I'm Dina, some people like to call me the 'alchemist' glad to make your acquaintance." She said with a beaming smile.

"Ah, the pleasure is all mine, I'm Omis and I suppose I been called the Immortal Mentor by some." He replied with a small smile.

"Please come one in, I see your companion is not in the best of states." Said, Dina as she moved to the side and ushered them in with her hand.

Silas walked in, followed by Omis who gave her another small nod as he passed by earning him another sweet smile from the small lady.

Once inside, Omis was surprised to see that the interior was very tidy and well kept. The first floor appeared to be similar to that of an Inn with various tables and a bar in the distance, the bizarre thing was that it was very empty and desolate.

Dina led them towards a table in the corner and sat down. Silas followed after and then Omis with Lu Lu.

"Now then, dear friend. I take it you need my help." She said before throwing a glance at Lu Lu's unconscious body.
