Death… And Me

Chapter 1271 - Together?

Rean couldn't help but ask, "How can you control it?"

However, Timoteo just shook his head. "That's a business secret. If I tell you, won't I have to deal with competition in the future?"

Rean and the others had to admit that Timoteo was right. If it was them, they probably wouldn't share the method either.

Timoteo then took out several Soul Binding Contracts as he told them, "Everyone, gather here. I need you all to sign these contracts."

Naturally, everyone was taken aback by that.

"You didn't say anything about a Soul Binding Contract."

"Indeed. We already paid you."

"What do you want?"

Timoteo smiled in response, explaining, "Don't worry, it's nothing serious. It will just state that you can't try to harm each other for a whole year after we arrive on the other side." Timoteo then pointed at the Transition Realm cultivators and continued, "If I don't do that, they would quickly attack the weaker ones. After all, they did pay me 2000 Rank Two Divine Stones. Aren't the rest of you easy targets? I have a reputation of delivering you guys safely to the other side to keep, so I can't let you die straight away because of the greed of some."

Everyone then looked at those guys at the Transition Realm and had to admit Timoteo was right. Without wasting even a second, they all signed the contracts... except for the Transition Realm cultivators.

One of the Transition Realm guys then snorted in response, snarling, "Hmph! Why would we sign it? We're not afraid of being attacked."

However, the energy inside the whale suddenly changed. Before the guy could do anything, he was grabbed by that energy and pushed close to the Wall Beast's mouth. If he went through, he would fall into the Continental Barrier and die for sure.

"Wait, wait, wait! I'll sign it! I'll sign it!"

Timoteo was happy to hear that. "Now you know why I wait for everyone to come inside the Wall Beast before pulling out the contracts. It's to guarantee that everyone will want to sign it."

Be it the guy who was almost sent out or the ones who watched, all the Transition Realm cultivators signed the contract. They could tell that inside the Wall Beast, Timoteo had absolute control.

Soon, everyone signed the contracts, and they wouldn't be able to touch each other, nor even tell someone else to do so for a whole year.

The travel through the wall was quite long but definitely not boring. The environment inside the Continental Barrier changed all the time. Explosions of energy, elements fighting elements in weird situations. In fact, there was even another Wall Beast who followed the group for a while.

Rean was enjoying the travel quite a lot until suddenly, a question appeared on his head. "Is this Wall Beast sentient?"

Timoteo looked at Rean with surprise on his face, responding, "Why would you ask?"

"It's because I can't feel its cultivation," Rean explained. Unless it didn't have any cultivation whatsoever, it was definitely above the Transition Realm. After all, one couldn't feel someone else's cultivation if they were too far below.

Rean then looked at the surroundings, or the Wall Beasts to be more precise, before continuing. "Then again, I can't tell whether it's sentient or not."

Timoteo shook his head, giving Rean a vague answer, "Wall Beasts are different. That's all I can say."

Roan heard that and pondered about the topic. Soon after, he communicated with Rean through their Soul Connection. 'Most likely, this thing doesn't have sentience. In fact, I don't think it has any cultivation at all.'

Rean agreed with Roan. 'Indeed. The fact that it's a being of energy is probably related to it. Also, I believe that Timoteo can control it exactly because it is different from demon beasts. He might have some device or skill that affects the whale's energy.'

Roan then warned Rean. 'You're probably right. However, this has nothing to do with us.'

Rean nodded before he looked at Timoteo and used a Divine Sense Message to ask something else. 'Senior Timoteo, my brother and I are traveling much further away. Do you know if there's another group of smugglers in Lanqueas Continent that can bring us to the Yubisval Continent? We will need to traverse the barrier again.'

'Yubisval? Where are you going?' Timoteo asked in response.

Rean smiled after hearing that. 'Business secret.'

Timoteo couldn't help but laugh when he heard that. 'Hahaha! I guess I deserved that.' Timoteo then nodded, saying, 'Yes, there is another group. After all, there are smuggled people from Lanqueas in our Huring Continent.'

Timoteo then passed Rean a red jade slip. 'You can use it to find the smugglers of Lanqueas. We kind of keep in contact so that one won't get in the other's business way.'

Rean was obviously delighted to receive that. 'Thank you, senior! By the way, is it really okay to give us such information?'

Timoteo didn't seem to care, waving his hands. 'It's fine. The same way I'm recommending them, they also recommend me when they send someone into Huring.'

Suddenly, the current of Divine Energy and Elements began to change, which caught Timoteo and the rest's attention. "Oh! Seems like we're finally on the other side."

*Waaoaoooooooooooaoaoo...*

The Wall Beast then jumped out of the Continental Wall and floated several kilometers away from it. After that, it opened its enormous mouth, allowing Rean's group and the others to come out. Once it was done, Timoteo gave everyone a piece of advice. "Try to not stay close to the walls for too long. Unlike my Wall Beast, the others will not like you very much. We're going back now, so good luck."

The Wall Beast then closed its mouth, jumping into the Continental Wall once more. Rean's group was then left behind to fare for themselves.

The few Transition Realm cultivators didn't waste time and immediately took flight. They had no obligation to help the others who couldn't fly anyway. If not because of the contract, they would have probably killed the weaker people to take their belongings.

Rean and Roan couldn't care less, of course. They simply took a jade slip map out and tried to find which direction they should go.. However, before they could depart, some of the people who came out with them called their attention. "Hey, how about we go together?"
