Death... and me

Chapter 1779: Simple as That

Luina was happy to hear that. "Great!" Soon after, she brought another item out of her Pocket Dimensional Realm. "And this is the other item you asked for. You asked for the blood of some high-level Wind-type Demon Beast, a Divine One, if possible. This is it."

Rean smiled in response and grabbed the vial of blood. He could tell that the vial didn't lose to the vial of blood he used on theirs at all. Perhaps it was even stronger as it was a real Divine Demon Beast. "Such high Wind Element affinity. You got yourself quite a good deal. Which Divine Demon Beast is it?"

"A Sky Wyvern," Luina answered. "Well, to be honest, I didn't need to pay anything for it. Thanks to her Sacred Eye Race, my mother knew a Sky Wyvern from the center of the Realm of Gods. The wyvern seemed to owe her a favor, so it provided her with a vial of its own blood after I asked her. That's how I got my hands on it."

Rean sighed in response. "It's so good to be born with a silver spoon, isn't it? Even back on Sunkan Planet, you were born as the daughter of the Lagan Sect Master. Just how lucky can you get, girl?"

Luina shrugged her shoulders, telling him, "It's not like I asked for it. Then again, I'm definitely not complaining either. If Roan were here, he probably would say I was right to use everything I could."

"That's true," Rean agreed with her.

Right after, Rean started to work. "Alright, Luan. You can stop looking at Luina's face for a second and focus these pupils of yours on my forge instead."

"Ah!" Sure enough, Luan was obviously there. It's just that he had to admit Luina was quite beautiful. "My bad, my bad. Don't tell my father, okay? Otherwise, he'll definitely start saying things like, 'if you have the time to stare off in a daze, go cultivate!' or something along those lines."

Luina laughed in response. "Hahaha! I can totally see Roan saying that. It would probably come with a slap on the back of your head to make you wake up." Luina then winked at Luan after that. "However, I don't mind if you admire me, little boy. I'm very proud of my body!" said the girl as she puffed her chest.

Rean shrugged his shoulders when he heard that. It was pretty obvious that Luina only saw the poor Luan as a kid and nothing else. 'Well, she hasn't given up on Roan yet, after all.'

"Alright, let's start." Eventually, Rean put his mind to forging as Luina poured her Wind Element into the process.

A few days later, Rean, Roan, and Luina were outside the Dimensional Realm. They had gathered at the arena to test out Rean's new weapons. "Alright, Luina, we'll use your old flying stars to test the new ones. Just control both of them while using the same power before having them clash against each other. If everything goes as planned, my flying stars should at least withstand yours."

One must remember that Luina could use Divine Middle-level weapons with her Space Bending Realm cultivation. With that said, Rean's flying stars were still at the Divine Low-level. Of course, Rean believed his own flying stars were definitely much stronger than Luina's Middle-level ones. Yet, before he could see it with his own eyes, he would not feel satisfied.

Well, that wasn't all. Luina's Divine Middle-level flying stars were probably at a similar level of strength as all the other weapons from other participants at the Space Bending Realm. It was the perfect test to see how good his weapons fared against them. Rean believed that some of the Peak Space Bending Realm participants probably could handle Divine High-level weapons, but those ones were definitely rare. Not to mention that he was confident his weapons wouldn't lose to them either.

Luina took a deep breath and took out ten flying stars on each hand. In her right hand, she held Rean's flying stars. On the left, she held the flying stars forged in the Jamai Sect. She then poured the exact same amount of Divine Energy, Soul Power, and Wind Element inside before throwing them out. 

Both sets had been bound by her blood and Divine Sense, so no one would be able to take control over them. At the same time, she used her Space Powers and Divine Sense to increase their power and redirect the flying stars against each other. Of course, she didn't use any flying star technique or anything like that. It was a simple clash of raw strength. 

However, before both sets encountered each other, one could already see just how much more speed, Wind Element, and Space Power Rean's flying stars carried. They simply couldn't compare to each other.

*Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish...*

The sound of metal clashing against metal didn't appear at all. Instead, Rean's flying stars cut through Luina's old ones as if they were hot knives cutting through butter.

"Holy shit!" Rean was shocked by the result. Even he didn't expect that the Space Power and Wind Element Gathering combo could generate such a huge difference. At the Divine stage, each level of equipment increased its power a lot. Rean believed his flying stars to win. That was true. However, he expected that his flying stars would at most deal a lot of damage to Luina's ones. That also meant they would be on par with Divine High-level equipment. However, he was wondering if his flying stars could be compared to Divine Peak-level equipment instead.

If Rean was that excited, then let alone Luina. "It's so amazing! I've never felt so good while controlling your flying stars, Rean. It felt like they were extensions of my body more than anything else. It isn't only the fact that they're stronger. The connection between them and me was off the charts. It was extremely easy!"

Rean smiled in response. "Well, although I didn't expect such power, I did expect the higher level of connection. I used your own gathered Wind Element and your own gathered Space Power to forge them. Did you really think my weapons were just good at gathering Elements? If that was the case, I would have no need for Roan or you to help me forge weapons. The best weapons are the weapons I use their owner's powers to create. As simple as that."
