Death... and me

Chapter 1885 Something Else To Do

Lansa obviously didn't mind and let the pulling force take her away.

*Vup!*

The next time she saw anything, she was in a deserted land with nothing more than a few small open buildings. Inside each of them, there were Divine Stones, forging materials, low-level treasures, equipment, and similar things.

"This guy has quite a lot of Divine Stones," Lansa couldn't help but say. She could see at least a few thousand Rank Two Divine Stones. One must remember that for an average cultivator at Rean's level, that amount of Divine Stones was very impressive.

Lansa then left the buildings, but she didn't have anywhere else to go. That's because the spatial barriers that signalized the end of the Pocket Dimensional Realm were all around the building. If anything, she thought it was quite a small Dimensional Realm. "Hey, the human out there. Bring me out!"

Rean then looked at Fran, saying, "Your daughter is asking to come out."

"I know," Fran nodded in response. "I was also watching everything through her eyes."

Rean wondered if this connection between Fran and his daughter was something similar to himself and Roan. Nevertheless, he quickly brought that Winged Provis out of his Dimensional Realm.

As for why the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm looked like that... well... Rean and Roan weren't idiots. Rean went to the length of even changing his own internal body structure after leaving the Free Continent. Simply put, it was impossible to tell that Rean was really Rean without Rean confirming it himself. The only thing that denounced his identity was his Spatial Powers at the Transition Realm and the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm's presence.

Since that was the case, Rean and Roan had Sister Orb prepare a part of the Dimensional Realm that would play the role of a smaller Dimensional Realm. For a normal Pocket Dimensional Realm, even the big ones, such an idea was ridiculously difficult and carried various risks to the Dimensional Realm itself. However, they had the Soul Gem System and Sister Orb. It was an easy task for her. In the end, all Lansa saw was that small isolated area of the Dimensional Realm, which made her think she was seeing everything.

"You're quite wealthy for your cultivation, no?" Fran asked Rean with a curious expression.

"Of course!" Rean agreed straight away. "I'm a merchant and a blacksmith. My life is all about making money. I don't want to look full of myself, but I'm very proud of what I've achieved so far. I even reached a stage where I could control Spatial Powers before the Void Tempering Realm."

Luio looked at Fran and Lansa, asking them, "What did you see in his Dimensional Realm?"

"Many Divine Stones and a few other things. It wasn't anything ridiculous, though," Lansa explained.

"No other cultivators?" Luio added a question.

Fran shook his head, replying, "The humans that the humanoid races are after were supposed to have over ten thousand cultivators inside their Dimensional Realm. However, this guy's Pocket Dimensional Realm can't fit even half of that amount. Even if you put 5000 cultivators there, they wouldn't be able to move a single foot. It's a very small Dimensional Realm, quite low-quality."

"Hey!" Rean pretended to be angry at his words. "Do you have any idea just how hard it was for me to get my Pocket Dimensional Realm? I'm not someone like you guys who can provide a Void Shaterring Pill and head straight to the Void Tempering Realm. I worked very hard to be where I am, okay?"

Fran snorted in response. "Hmph! Have you not seen Jakar or my daughter here? Are any of them at the Void Tempering Realm?"

"This..." Rean had to admit he was right. "Could it be that Spirits can't use Void Shattering Pills?"

Lansa nodded. "That's correct. The Void Shattering Pill your humanoid races created is only useful for the humanoid races. Demon beasts, demons, angels, spirits, none of the others can use it. Well, we spirits do have our own ways of reaching the Void Tempering Realm straight away if needed, though. But we prefer to let things happen naturally. For us, that's more advantageous due to our connection with nature."

"Ahem..." Luio stopped Lansa there. "Why are you even telling him all of this?"

"Ah!" Lansa immediately lowered her head. "Sorry, Uncle Luio."

"Sigh..." Luio sighed in response. "Well, it's no secret anyway. Fran, you can let your daughter go already."

Fran nodded after hearing that. "Head to the sanctuary to see Jakar. The proximity to his Golden Feather will help in your cultivation."

"Okay, dad." Lansa quickly turned around and left right after.

Luio and Fran, two of the strongest experts of the spirit race, then looked at Rean. "Now then, what should we do with you?"

Hearing that, Rean quickly suggested, "How about I work here? As you saw, I'm a very good merchant. Without a background, I still reached this level. You definitely, DEFINITELY don't want to kil-... lose such a great talent like myself."

"No background, huh?" Luio found it hard to believe. "I refuse to believe no one has noticed your talent until now. You might even be related to the humans the humanoid races are looking for."

Rean pretended to not know anything. "You mentioned it a few times already. Just who are these humans you are looking for? I've also gotten interrogated in the human territory about it. Well, not only me but many other humanoid race members. They seem pretty desperate to find these humans as there were many posters everywhere on the humanoid side."

Fran and Luio looked at each other before looking back at Rean. "Whatever."

Luio then decided to simply leave. "You brought him here, so you deal with him. I'm off to the sanctuary." In the next moment, Luio completely disappeared.

Fran pondered in silence for a bit before asking, "I know that nephew of mine. Tell me, you're not related at all, right?"

Rean's mouth twitched in response. "And only now did you decide to believe my words? Yeah, with your power, it should be easy to investigate. Indeed, Jakar and I only came to know each other back in the Traversal City. He wasn't even called Jakar back there."

Fran nodded. "I didn't really bring you here because of what Jakar said but because we thought you were the human the humanoid races were looking for. Since that's not the case, I have something else for you to do."
