Death… And Me



Seeing that Rean was interested in the city, the Four-Winged Bat quickly explained. "The City is called La Mataia, and it isn't that big from what I heard about. I haven't seen other cities in my life, so I can't confirm if it is big or not. Anyway, starting from this location, sir just has to travel northeast. You will see at some point that the environment will change into a mountainous range with several valleys. The city is located within this valley."

The Bat continued. "You won't find many Transition Realm Demon Beasts here, let alone Void Tempering Realm ones like myself. However, as you get closer to La Mataia, their numbers will increase. You can ask any of those around, and I'm sure they will be able to tell you where to go. There isn't anyone above the Void Tempering Realm, though."

Rean was satisfied. "That's more than enough for me. Here, have these as an apology for invading your territory." Rean then threw a few Rank Two Divine Stones, which was a great fortune in a place like this. Right after, he opened another Spatial Gate and disappeared from the area.

The Bat's eyes lit up. He did have a few Rank Two Divine Stones, but even he had to be careful at spending them. Gaining some extra ones was truly a great outcome. 'Still... it was good he didn't take any offense. Otherwise, we would all be dead already,' he thought with some lingering fear.

Rean didn't travel straight to where the Bat indicated, though. As mentioned before, he was already tired and needed to recover his Divine Origin Energy. That said, he entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm as soon as he came out on the other side.

Inside the Dimensional Realm, Roan had seen the interaction with the Four-Winged bats. "So we are finally close to a city, uh?"

Rean nodded as he pulled out some Divine Origin Energy Cores to recover. "Indeed. Even if the city doesn't have any Long-Distance Teleport Formation, the higher-ups there should be able to at least point in the direction of bigger cities."

Roan nodded. "It most likely doesn't have such a thing if you consider the location we are at the moment. Anyway, just go there and check it."

"Uncle Rean!" Suddenly, Luan called Rean. Roan didn't focus on Kentucky only. He also helped Luan to train. Luan might not have the Soul Gem System's upgrades to increase cultivation speed, but he does have the Divine Origin Energy Cores and Roan's pills, not to mention an enormous talent and dedication. With these traits, he was able to cultivate from the Void Tempering Realm Late Stage up to the Space Bending Realm Late Stage. Yes, he got an entire realm above!

But above all, the main reason for that was none other than Luan's Space Affinity. That is something Rean and Roan don't have and will never do. When the cultivation reached the Void Tempering Realm, Spatial Laws became a huge part that dictates one's progress, and who could have more to gain on this side than Luan? Sure, he was still slower than the twins' group without the upgrades. However, it is definitely not by much with that huge advantage of an affinity.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm "What is it?" Rean looked at Luan, asking.

Luan then brought out his sword. "It's broken again... Sorry."

Rean looked at Luan's sword. It wasn't as good as the White and Black Stars since Rean did not use Solar Essence. However, it was definitely much better than most weapons at the same level out there. "Sigh... There is no helping it. Your cultivation improved too fast, so this Golden Peak-Level Sword obviously can't keep with you anymore." 

Rean then took the Sword from Luan, and something magical happened. The sword itself began to disintegrate as if it was becoming nothing more than energy. Rean wasn't the least bit surprised, though. "You worked well. You can rest now."

Roan and Luan looked at each other, not knowing how Rean did that. Still, that wasn't their specialty, so they didn't even ask.

Rean then looked at Luan and especially at his cultivation realm. "Alright, with your huge Spatial Power, I believe you shouldn't have any issues controlling a Divine High-Level Sword. Normally it would be impossible before the Elemental Space Realm, but you are quite an exception." The same worked for the twins, as their weapons levels were supposed to be used only in the Space-Time Realm. "Sister Orb, the sun's Solar Essence production also increases with the time acceleration, right?"

Sister Orb, who was always listening to everything in the Dimensional Realm, quickly answered. [Obviously. Time here is accelerated, but it feels normal while you are inside. The same goes for the Sun's Solar Essence production. Considering the amount of Solar Essence you used in the White and Black Stars, I reckon you do have enough to forge a new weapon now.]

Rean nodded, satisfied. "Alright, Luan. I'll forge a Divine High-Level Sword with Solar Essence for you then. However, I have a question. Usually, my weapons gather elements on their own, and I always forge a weapon to match the user's element. Yet, your Elemental Affinity is Space itself. Of course, my weapons can also draw Spatial Power on their own together with the elements they were forged to work with. It's just that you don't really have one of them to work with. Do you have any preference for an element, or would you rather I use the space allocated to this effect to increase even more the Spatial Power drawn by the sword?"

It wasn't like Luan couldn't use other elements. All cultivators can use elements different from their affinity. It's just that they wouldn't be very efficient at using them.

Luan pondered a bit and just shook his head. "I'm quite good at using Yang Energy to draw Light Element, but I already have help on this side with Uncle Rean's bracelet. In that case, I would rather have more Spatial Power since it is easy for me to control."

Rean didn't mind. "Alright, a Pure Spatial Power Sword it is."
