Death… And Me

Chapter 3287: Not a Challenge

”Thatʼs a good question,” Zetia nodded. ”If you were someone from outside, I would tell you to just use the same procedures as you used to come in. But since you ascended, there were no such steps. Perhaps you can go to the border between the Divine Snow World and the rest of the Divine Realm and try to leave? I donʼt know what to expect if you do so, though.”

”Could it be no one tries?” Kentucky asked on the side.

”I wouldnʼt say no one tries,” Zetia shook her head. ”There are just way too many cultivators in the Divine Snow World, after all. Sure there are a few who tried their luck to go outside. Itʼs just that we donʼt get information regarding such a topic in the Snow World Network. Maybe those who tried succeeded, maybe they didnʼt.”

Roan then got up, followed by Rean and Kentucky. ”We understand now. In any case, the idea of trying to leave this place with our strength is kinda ridiculous. We will first cultivate, gain some strength, and if the need arrives, we will try to go out. Perhaps there wonʼt even be a need for it.”

Zetia was happy to hear that. ”You are doing the right thing. Just one last warning. This isnʼt a rule, though. Before ascending, the cultivators were usually at the peak of their world. That often ended up making them become complacent, arrogant, and impatient. Know that your Peak Transition Realm cultivation means nothing here, so you better drop such notions.”

”That goes without saying,” Roan commented. First of all, he never drops his guard.

The twins and Kentucky left the building a few minutes later, moving to a hotel there in the City Center. After securing a room, Rean came out on his own and went out to look for Divine Stones of the Divine Realm.

As one can expect, it was fairly easy to find one. In fact, they were available in pretty much any city, and as long as you pay the Divine Stones, you can buy as many as you want. It was easier than the Mortal World, where the normal stones were often acquired after tests.

Rean bought not only four but eight of such Divine Stones, which they call Dantian Regulators in the Divine Snow World. That wasnʼt all; he also went to another shop, now knowing that what he was looking for was called a VS device, and bought another ten of such. Finally, he returned to the hotel and entered the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm.

”Everyone, gather around,” Rean called those four.

Diliy and the others quickly arrived, waiting for Rean to continue.

”So, this is what we know about this place so far.” Then, Rean began to explain everything, surprising those present. It was obviously quite different from what they heard.

Rean gave them time to absorb the information, turning to Rifindio and Renata right after. ”You are different from the four of them. You came from here... or from even higher up, to be more specific. Did you know about this Divine Snow World?”

Rifindio was the first one to shake his head. ”Not really. But then again, Iʼve never actively gone out to learn more about the Divine Realm. Perhaps the information was there for me to access, but I never did.”

Renata was the same as Rifindio. ”I wasnʼt much different than Rifindio. Sure, I had access to a lot more resources and information, but I also never bothered to research much about the Divine Realm.”

”As I expected.” Rean nodded. If they knew anything about this place, they would probably have spoken about it earlier. ”Okay, what comes now is about Renata and the other four.”

*Clap, clap!*

Rean clapped his hands, catching the attention of Diliy and the rest. ”Now then, it is time to get things going. Karev, Marev, Diliy. First, I will work on the three of you. I will swap your Werdlem Stones for Divine Werdlem Stone. Otherwise, you wonʼt be able to cultivate here.” ”Renata,” Rean turned back to her. ”What about you? You want to disappear, donʼt you? If thatʼs the case, this is by far the fastest method. I can swap the Divine Werdlem Stone near your core, and you can register the new one in the system with whatever name you like.”

Renata narrowed her eyes. Different from Dantians, Cores are usually located in the brain of the Demon Beasts. Naturally, so are the Divine Werdlem Stones. She knew Rean could operate the stones in the dantian, but that place was nowhere near as dangerous as the brain. ”Have you ever tried it on a Demon Beast before?”

”Not really,” Rean shrugged. ”But Iʼm very confident in my abilities. You wonʼt be able to disappear if you donʼt do this, and in the first moment your Divine Werdlem Stone gets a reading, the Supreme Palace will most likely find you straight away. Besides, if I donʼt do it, you wonʼt be able to access the Werdlem Network. Well, it is called Divine Snow Network in this place.”

Renata had her doubts initially, but Kentucky jumped in to state the obvious. ”What are you afraid of? Do you think we will take this opportunity to harm you? Little girl, we could have killed you countless times already. You took this risk so you could disappear, didnʼt you? Whatʼs the point in stepping back now? Donʼt forget, we will only carry you up to this point. After this, we will leave you in this city, and you will have to live on your own.”

Renata gritted her teeth, and she was angry about the way Kentucky put it. Nonetheless, she knew he was right. ”Okay, go ahead and swap mine as well. You must, must, must make sure you do it right!”

”Leave it to me!” Rean patted his chest, confident. He was someone who could even heal souls, so a brain was far from being a challenge.
