Death… And Me

Chapter 1711 Good!

Rean immediately found an issue, though. ”As ridiculous as it sounds, I can still understand most of the breakthroughs. However, thereʼs one realm that doesnʼt make sense, the Soul Transformation Realm. After all, this is a realm where you need to find your own path.”

Roan and the others also nodded in agreement. They all knew how the Soul Transformation Realm was the reason for the majority of the people being stuck at the Peak Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Even in the System Sect inside the twinsʼ Dimensional Realm, quite a few cultivators were starting to reach that barrier.

Philip already expected that question, telling them, ”I know, right? Iʼm also curious as to how such a thing is possible. However, the Realm of Gods is enormous, and there are too many things I donʼt know. All I know is that the recipe for this pill is considered a great secret. The powers that have it canʼt spread the recipe without authorization. The Jamai Continental Empire and its respective sect just so happen to have it.”

Philip also added, ”Of course, thereʼs another point. Such pills are only given to their best young talents and obviously those close to the higher-ups of the Jamai Sect. The same happens in other places as well. With that being said, itʼs not like everyone you find in the street will be at the Void Tempering Realm or higher. You will need a lot of luck to receive such a pill.”

Roan couldnʼt help but ask after that, ”Are they at least available for sale?”

Philip laughed when he heard that. ”Hahaha! Sure, they are. Three hundred years ago, I went there to watch the Jamai Sectʼs selection and just so happened to take part in an auction. During the auction, three pills were put up for sale. Can you guess how much they cost?”

Rean, as the guy of finances, could guess. ”Errr... Rank Five or Six Divine Stones?”

Philip immediately nodded in response. ”Correct. The cheapest one was auctioned for 569 Rank Five Divine Stones. If you think you can afford that, good luck. The second method is to buy it directly from the Jamai Sect. However, those ones have a fixed price of 1000 Rank Five Divine Stones. Our Jhiod Sect tries to buy one or two every 100 years when the teleport formation opens.”

”569 Rank Five Divine Stones...” Even Roan could only bitterly smile at that. They barely had any Rank Four Divine Stones, let alone Rank Five. ʼAnd here I thought we were quite wealthy...ʼ Rean thought.

Roan sighed after that. ”Forget about that for now.”

Philip smiled as he continued, ”So, thatʼs basically it. Donʼt expect yourselves to be anything impressive once you get there. Youʼre just a stage or two above average. However...” Philip narrowed at Rean and Roan. ”Peak Stage of the Void Tempering Realm. Thatʼs the strength you said to have here in our region. Yet, something tells me that youʼre still hiding some of your strength. Is that really your limit?”

Rean and Roan looked at each other after that. If they used everything they had, they could indeed fight at the level of someone at the Peak Stage of the Void Tempering Realm. However, they did have some extra perks. First, they could burn their Nascent Souls again, which would definitely allow them to jump a few more stages or maybe an entire realm to fight for a limited amount of time. Another point was that the twins were indeed made to fight together. If they joined forces, then they could definitely go another one or two stages above.

Roan pondered over it a bit and then answered Philipʼs question. ”I wouldnʼt say thatʼs our limit. Instead, I would put it as our ʼsafeʼ limit. We arenʼt different from other cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits. As long as we pay a certain price, we do have one or two tricks up our sleeves. Iʼm sure the same goes for everyone here.”

Philip was satisfied with that answer. ”I see... that makes sense. Then, as I mentioned before, your strength without weapon intents is one stage above average. Two if you add them, and thatʼs because your weapon intents are at the third stage already.” Roan explained to Libraia about the levels of weapon intents, but it turned out that although the Jhiod Sect didnʼt have anyone who could use them, they already knew about the levels. After all, they did receive visits from beings who could use them, and some of the Jhiod Sect members had gone to the center of the Realm of Gods before.

Roan agreed with Philip on that. The first two levels of the weapon intents were just the start. They didnʼt increase the strength of the user that much. It was only when Rean and Roan reached the third level that they received a large spike in power.

Philip didnʼt stop there. ”In any case, thatʼs already very good for our Yume Clan. So, what do you think? If you decide to really be part of our Yume Clan and participate in the selection, I can allow you to go to the center of the Realm of Gods. Well, not exactly the center, but quite close to it since thatʼs the location of the Jamai Continental Empire and its sect.”

Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis obviously had no reason to decline. ”We accept. However, even if weʼre chosen by the Jamai Sect, we wonʼt stay there either. Is that a problem?”

Philip shook his head in response. ”Itʼs not like anyone needs to know that you four will leave later. First of all, if you fail in the selection, you wonʼt be held by any rules and can leave anyway. I just hope that you wonʼt lose on purpose after arriving there.”

”That wonʼt happen,” Rean and Roan immediately assured them. ”We have our own reasons to pass the test. With that kind of influence, we can definitely get a lot of information from them. Not to mention that carrying their emblem will probably open a lot of doors for us.”

Hearing that, Philip accepted their reason. ”Good!”
