Death… And Me

Chapter 1782: Escaped

Roan continued, ʼI refuse to believe sheʼs just two stages stronger than average cultivators at the center of the Realm of Gods. Itʼs definitely more than that since I had to go all out to make up for the difference.ʼ

Rean understood why, though. ʼDidnʼt you hear her? She barely had the chance to fight anyone other than those at her Jamai Sect. Simply put, her world was too small up to this point.ʼ

Roan agreed with Rean. ʼThat has to be the case. Well, sheʼll understand that sheʼs at least one extra stage higher than she thought to be.ʼ Roan then glanced back at Rean, telling him, ʼAlright, this fight gave me a good idea of what weʼre up against in this competition.ʼ

ʼLetʼs forget about the average cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits at the center of the Realm of Gods for now. Instead, letʼs use the geniuses as a comparison from now on. I believe Luina is probably one stage stronger than top geniuses at the same level as her. That makes us two stages stronger than them if they fight at our level.ʼ

Roan added another point. ʼAlso, weʼre only one stage higher than Luina when we add my experience in battles. If we talk about raw power alone, Luinaʼs Initial Stage Void Tempering Realm strength is, in fact, higher than our Late Stage Transition Realm strength. The good thing is that her raw strength should be on par with everyone else. Itʼs her combat capability that gives her that extra edge. Once we reach the Initial Stage of Void Tempering, our raw strength should be one stage higher than those at our level.ʼ

Rean pondered over it for a bit before saying, ʼHowever, donʼt forget that Luina is at the fourth level of her body cultivation technique. We are still in the third level of our Starlight Body Cultivation Technique. Once we get our Fourth Grade Star Body, it should add at least one more stage to our overall fighting level. Of course, Iʼm comparing us to the top geniuses of this place.ʼ

Rean continued, ʼYet, thereʼs one problem. We keep saying geniuses at the center of the Realm of Gods. However, Jamai Sect and the other powers taking part in this competition arenʼt from the real center. Instead, they all live in the surroundings of the center and not really the center itself. Perhaps the level of the geniuses of the Jamai Sect and the others arenʼt the actual top yet. I truly believe that in the real center of the Realm of Gods, the geniuses are even stronger.ʼ

Roan didnʼt deny that. ʼIndeed. The Rambram Sect is probably a very good example of that. Unfortunately, we wonʼt have the chance to fight any of their geniuses to see the real difference between them and us. At least not for the moment.ʼ

The twins then reached the conclusion that with Reanʼs new weapons, their overall strength was three stages higher than the top geniuses. After all, they were in the Late Stage of the Transition Realm and not in the Initial Stage of the Void Tempering Realm, which was the level Luina fought against Roan. 

ʼItʼs quite unfortunate that all the disciples of the Jamai Sect and the other powers are in the Space Bending Realm, so we wouldnʼt really have a chance against them,ʼ Rean could not help but say.

Roan faintly smiled after hearing that. ʼThatʼs perfect. They expect us to be as strong as any other Late Stage Transition Realm cultivator from far away. They believe that at the same level, they would be stronger than us. However, weʼre stronger than them at the same level. What does that mean?ʼ

Rean immediately understood. ʼIt means weʼre more than an entire cultivation realm stronger than they expect us to be. We can definitely use this to our advantage during battles.ʼ

ʼCorrect,ʼ Roan nodded, satisfied. ʼMore than an entire realm stronger than what the enemy expects. If we play our cards right, we can even take down some of these top geniuses at the Peak Stage of the Space Bending Realm.ʼ

Luina couldnʼt help but ask, ”Why are you two so silent? Are you talking about me through Divine Sense?”

Rean laughed in response. ”We were just discussing your strength. We believe that youʼre underestimating your power. Then again, weʼll only find out once we invade the surrounding countries. After all, their own Jamai Sect disciples will definitely come out and defend it.”

”Defend it?” Luina was confused. ”Werenʼt we supposed to not join in any of the fights unless our Walfure Region was about to be conquered?”

Rean shook his head, telling her, ”Thatʼs a rule for the outsiders. It doesnʼt apply to the participants inside that region. Otherwise, how do you expect us to take control over the entire Walfure Region before ten years are up? We need to be able to attack them.”

”I see...” Luina understood. ”I just want to see how youʼll defend once the other disciples of my Jamai Sect join forces to stop you two.”

Roan shook his head. ”Thereʼs no need for you to worry about that.”

Suddenly, the twinsʼ communication badges activated. Not only theirs, but Luinaʼs one as well. After sending their Divine Senses into it, they immediately saw the message.

”Four months and a half. Thatʼs how long it took before the countries around us finally noticed our real objectives,” Roan said with a smile.

The message was very simple. The Transition Realm beings that Rean gave anti-cultivation suppression badges had found one of the subordinates of the disciples of the Jamai Sect in their country. The only good thing was that these Transition Realm beings were able to keep themselves hidden thanks to Anti-Divine Sense Formations prepared by Rean. In any case, the guy immediately escaped once he found out that the armies were very close to his country.

”I was planning to start the attacks six months after the competition began, but time is not on our side at the moment,” Roan mentioned. ”Letʼs go. We have a few countries to invade.”
