Death… And Me

Chapter 2035 How To Get Iridescent Tears

”You have it?! How? We looked for this thing everywhere!” Rean couldnʼt help but ask. ”I just asked you out of curiosity. I didnʼt think you would have any information, let alone have it with you.”

Luman looked at Rean and Roan as a curious expression appeared on his face. ”Of course I have it! And it also makes sense that you didnʼt find any information about it outside. Thatʼs because iridescent Tear is a byproduct of us, Lakure Race cultivators. Since there are pretty much no more Lakures in the Universe, it makes sense you didnʼt find it anywhere else.”

”Was there such a thing?” Rean and Roan realized.

Luman then explained. ”Iridescent Tears can only be produced by Lakures at the Elemental Space Realm and above. As you know, Lakures have their special meridians covering the surface of our skin. It allows us to absorb a lot more Divine Energy or other energies that use the meridians faster than most. But there is a side effect once we reach the Elemental Space Realm. Our space meridians get really strong, and we end up absorbing not only Divine Energy but all the elements in the environment.”

”Naturally, there is no such thing as a free meal in this world. The fact we absorb all elements together only causes chaos in our cultivation. To fix it, our Lakure Race has to get rid of all the elements that arenʼt necessary for our cultivation. The byproduct of this process of detoxification is none other than Iridescent Tears.”

Reanʼs group was surprised to hear such a thing. Sure enough, as a Space-Time Realm cultivator, Luman was bound to get rid of that Iridescent Tear. ”So thatʼs how this several elements item came to be...”

Luman nodded. ”It is more of a curse than a blessing, though. Iridescent Tears are indeed very good for some specific uses and have a high value, but they really hinder our cultivation by a lot. If any lakure at the Elemental Space or higher could choose, they would rather have none of it. Too bad we canʼt do that. Well, at the moment, Iʼm pretty much the only Lakure that produces this byproduct since no other Lakure has reached the Elemental Space Realm yet.”

Luman then took out a vial with a liquid that shined with all kinds of colors, looking like some rainbow. Immediately, Sister Orbʼs voice echoed in their minds. [There is so much! Quick, buy it from him!]

Reanʼs eyes also lit up. Not only was there enough for him and Roan to reach the Fifth Grade of the Starlight Body, but he could also tell that it would be of great help to his forged equipment. ”Sir Luman, how much do you want for this vial?”

Luman pondered a bit. It was true that it was a valuable item, but the problem was that there were few uses for his Iridescent Tears. He didnʼt keep it all this time because he wanted to save it. Instead, it was basically because he had never had a chance to sell it before. No one in the Underworld Realm would be able to make use of this thing. As a Lakure, he obviously had no need for it either.

”Hum... I really donʼt know how much it is worth nowadays. With the disappearance of the Lakures, Iʼm sure the price of this thing in the Realm of Gods has skyrocketed... if there is any left at all. But then again, this information is useless now that we are in the Swamp of No Return. Letʼs do it like this, Divine Energy Stones are extremely rare here since we are in the Underworld. How many Divine Stones did you bring with you from the Realm of Gods. Perhaps we can make a deal.”

Reanʼs eyes lit up before he waved his hands in the air. Immediately, 10000 Rank Four Divine Stones appeared in the air in a flash. Rean was the one responsible for the finances of their group, and no one ever intervened, so Roan and Kentucky just kept quiet.

Lumanʼs eyes opened wide when he saw that. He knew very well that Rank Four Divine Stones were hard to come by, but Rean had so many of them. However, Reanʼs words the next moment made him calm down. ”I know that this looks like a lot for you in this situation, brother Luman. But you were not wrong when you talked about the Iridescent Tears value nowadays. Iʼll be honest. I believe you might be able to get over a hundred Rank Seven Divine Stones if you bring it to the Realm of Gods. Compared to that, these 10000 Rank Four Divine Stones are nothing more than some pocket change. Unfortunately, Iʼm truly not that rich. Rank Four Divine Stones is the highest quality I have. These are all that I can afford at the moment.”

Luman was surprised to hear that even Rank Seven Divine Stones appeared in the talk. After all, from Rank Seven onwards, Divine Stones didnʼt have Divine Energy. Instead, they all had Divine Origin Energy. Their value simply couldnʼt be put in the same sentence as Rank Six Divine Stones and below.

However, Luman showed a bright smile and quickly collected all 10000 Rank Four Divine Stones from Rean before throwing the vial at him. ”Rank Seven Divine Stones are truly a wonder, but what use do they have to me if I canʼt get them? I can produce more Iridescent Tears as time passes in this place, but I absolutely canʼt produce Divine Stones. That said, we have a deal.”

Rean smiled from ear to ear. He didnʼt want to fool Luman, who had helped them before. So he told the truth about the value of the item. With that, there would be no grudges in the future if Luman succeeded in leaving this place and returned to the Realm of Gods just to find out the real value of his Iridescent Tears. If anything, he would be ready to ask the real price once he did so.

”Thank you, senior Luman. We owe you a great favor as these Iridescent Tears hold an extreme value to us at the moment.”

Luman just waved his hand, telling Reanʼs group to leave already. ”A deal is a deal, so just get over it. Now, leave me alone since I havenʼt cultivated with Divine Stones for a very long time. I want to experience it again.”

Rean, Roan, and Kentucky nodded and quickly turned out to leave the room. But before that, Luman remembered something and told the twinsʼ group. ”Oh, by the way, if you have more Divine Stones, I have quite a few more Iridescent Tear Vials with me.”

Reanʼs eyes lit up for a moment, but they quickly returned to normal. They also needed Divine Stones for their own cultivation, and Celis would definitely throw a tantrum if he took out any more of their Rank Four Divine Stones. ”Thank you, senior Luman. If we need any more of these tears in the future, we will come back for them.”

After bidding farewell to Luman, the twins went to their room in the settlement and entered the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Now that they had the necessary cultivation and had accumulated enough Starlight Energy, they could use the Iridescent Tear to breakthrough into the Fifth Grade of the Starlight Body.
