Re:Immortal

"You ready?" Asked Addi as he eyed Omis with a smirk.

Omis answered with a grin. "I was born ready old man."

"Cheeky little bastard." Laughed Addi with a shake of his head. The duo then turned into two streaks of light that shot towards the dark unknown universe.

The heavenly realm alongside the mortal plane was left behind them, it was the start of a new adventure, one that neither of them was quite sure where it would lead.

Although they had managed to get their hands on a map that the elders of the Primal Star sect so 'kindly' provided, the duo still faced the risk of being noticed by a 'Divine'.

Hence they would do their utmost best to avoid any territory that fell under their jurisdiction. The first destination of their journey was the Kaa'lot.

"Kaa'lut?" Asked Omis.

"No you ignorant idiot, did you forget how they pronounced it, it's Kaa'lot!" Addi corrected him with a shake of his head.

"Where the hell is the difference." Mumbled Omis under his breath, Addi pretended not to hear him.

Kaa'lot was the name of a neutral planet roughly the size of the mortal plane they were familiar with, it was also one of the most famous busiest planets on this particular side of the Universe making It a great place to gather information.

The 'Divine' had some previous bad blood between the ruling faction of Kaa'lot so they tended to avoid it. For a neutral planet to survive the predators of the universe and remain independent was a testimony to its strength.

"You think we will find one of those, uh, what were they called again, you know those who they said are blessed with extreme beauty."

"The Eldrins'?" Asked Addi.

"Yes! The Eldrins, so that's what they are called." Thought Omis as he recalled the description of that the captured cultivators provided.

They described them as the personification of beauty, their elegance, and grace enough to charm the Gods. Omis would be lying if he said he wasn't curious about such race.

They mainly seek beauty in their partners and are firm believers in following one's desires. Their numbers are extremely small, however, with their main distinguishing feature being their slightly silver skin and amaranthine-colored eyes.

"I doubt we'd come across one of them, didn't they say that they usually occupy very high ranks in whatever sect, clan, or kingdom they join." Said Addi with a shake of his head.

"Such a shame." Mumbled Omis.

"Remember the mission! We are not going sightseeing." Adding turned and glared at him.

"Yes, yes, such a killjoy you know that?"Replied Omis with a sigh.

"And I don't want a repeat of the Song Kindom, we ARE going to proceed low-key." Added Addi in a serious tone.

"Don't worry, I love low-key." Answered Omis as he patted his chest reassuringly yet that only seemed to cause Addi to let out a sigh full of worry.

'Is it really going to be okay?' He thought to himself as he glanced at the overly enthusiastic Omis who flew by his side.

Along the way, the duo flew past countless dead and ruined planets, some looked naturally uninhabited while others had signs of being destroyed by some epic battle.

Whenever the duo passed one of the said planets, Omis would slow down and curiously observed it. Addi felt like complaining countless of times yet refrained from doing so and simply rolled his eyes.

'At least he doesn't want to go down there.' Thought Addi, trying to comfort himself.

"It's quite boring isn't it?" Omis suddenly spoke. They have been traveling for a while now, since they were in space they had nothing to hold them back from fully unleashing their max speed.

Doing that, they had already passed quite the number of drifting planets and even strange solar systems. Yet it was still utterly boring. Coming across new planets and realms was interesting the first few times but even that lost its luster eventually.

"You're too impatient." Replied Addi with the air of a wise old man. This however merely caused Omis to sigh in annoyance.

"And you became a boring geezer." He said.

Irritated, Addi glared at him before speaking. "Who are you calling a geezer you brat!"

Chuckling, Omis replied with a grin. "So you agree on the boring part."

As the duo flew across the desolate space, the sound of their endless bickering followed behind them. It was then that their eyes suddenly turned sharp as they approached an inhabited realm.

They then paused their meaningless quarrel as countless presences bore down on them. Soon the duo was stopped by a small army of cultivators standing on top of what appeared to be massive insect monsters.

"That's disgusting." Mumbled Omis as he glanced at the monstrosities that the cultivators were using as mounts.

"Space bandits?" Said Addi with a frown.

Hearing that a chuckle escaped Omis's lips. "Didn't you insist on being the one to lead since you wanted to avoid coming across them?" He said as he motioned at the small army blocking their way.

Flustered, Addi replied as he tried to hide his embarrassment. "Shut up, it's because of your meaningless bickering that distracted me."

"Hahaha, yes, yes whatever you say." Laughed Omis. He was not seriously concerned about the small army of outlaws blocking their path.

A small glance was enough to show that their highest member was merely at the Profound Immortal with the rest all being at the Half-Immortal realm.

Since Omis and Addi were trying to avoid suspicion, they had deliberately concealed the flunction coming off their cultivation bases causing them to appear as nothing but low-level cultivators.

"Hand over your storage bags and rings with all your valuables if you cherish your life!" Yelled a gruff-looking cultivator with an unkempt thick beard.

Hearing that Omis tried to resist the urge to laugh wildly as he struggled against the wide grin that was breaking on his face. 'It appeared! The first cliche!'

As if reading Omis's thoughts, along tired sigh escaped from Addi's lips as he facepalmed. 'This idiot is having too much fun.' He thought to himself, feeling a headache starting to appear.

Omis on the other hand seemed to be excited as he stared at the army with a predatory gaze.
