Death... and me

Chapter 1920 Void Shattering Pill's Origin

As Zuo's group talked about whether to come out or not, Red finally arrived in the new location of the System Sect. "Oh! Is it true that this entire thing can fit in your Dimensional Realm?"

Rean was surprised to hear that voice because he was in the middle of teaching others. It seemed like Red wanted to make his appearance a surprise. "Hey, Red! So you finally came, huh? Hahaha!" Rean then looked at one of the Formation Masters from the System Sect. "Continue with the classes. I'll be back later."

"Yes, Sect Master." The Formation Master quickly accepted the order and took Rean's place.

As for Rean, he brought Red to another room. It's just that Red was also followed by an old man that didn't seem to want to leave his side. When they finally arrived at the room, Roan was there as well. Other than Roan, there was a member of the Dragon Race present. That was the Dragon Race member that stayed around to make sure the twins would be fine.

"And who is the senior on your side?" Rean asked while showing some respect. He couldn't feel the old man's cultivation at all. Not only that, the old man gave him the same sense of danger as Lanfia and the other top-level demon beasts.

The old man looked at the dragon before looking back at Rean. "You can call me Flan. I'm one of the elders of the Golden Drohare Race. I came together with Red to make sure things went well."

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "I don't see what could go wrong. This is the demon beasts' territory, after all." Rean then sat down. "Alright, take a seat, you two. Let's talk for a bit."

Flan then asked something. "If possible, keep your conversation going with your mouths. I don't want to feel Divine Senses."

Roan faintly smiled in response. "Is that so? Since that's the case, I might as well ask you directly. Just why did you send one of your Golden Drohares to the Mortal Realm? That doesn't seem like something that often happens between the Divine Demon Beast races."

Red quickly raised his hand, replying, "This part I can explain. The reason was pretty simple. The elders of my race needed me to gain sentience."

"Sentience?" Rean asked back with a puzzled expression. "I know that demon beasts don't develop sentience before the Transition Realm. In the Mortal Realm, that happens at Stage Five, similar to the Nascent Soul Realm. However, if you really needed your sentience to appear as fast as possible, couldn't you simply have used a Void Shattering Pill?"

Surprisingly, the one to answer that question was neither Flan nor Red. Instead, it was the Dragon Race member that was also present in the room. "That's not possible. The Void Shattering Pill was made for the humanoid races to break through each of their realms. As you know, humanoids have different realms from demon beasts. For us demon beasts, we simply accumulate Divine Energy and break through to the next stage. All stages are the same. The Void Shattering Pill, on the other hand, specifically acts on every single humanoid cultivation realm."

"I see..." Rean didn't know that. "Thank you, Azitia."

Soon after, Roan asked another question. "What about the devils and angels, then?"

Red quickly answered. "The angels and devils also have all the cultivation realms that humanoids have. They can use Void Shattering Pills if they wish to. However, due to their specific cultivation requirements, it's better for them to cultivate normally. A good example is the souls of living beings of the Realm of Gods in a devil's cultivation. A devil that cultivated normally and used souls to reach the Void Tempering Realm would be much stronger than a devil who jumped straight to that realm with the pills."

Roan understood when he heard that. "That doesn't mean they don't use the pills. If some weak devil with low prospects got their hands on the pill, they would use it even if they became weaker. Yet, the members of big devil powers would most likely not do so."

Rean immediately talked through their Soul Connection. 'That explains why someone like the granddaughter of Krankax wasn't in the Void Tempering Realm yet. It wasn't just because of the Free Continent competition.'

Roan agreed with Rean on that. 'I think the same.'

Flan obviously couldn't detect the Soul Connection messages, so he simply nodded at Roan. "That's correct. However, the devils have control of the northeast side of the Realm of Gods. All the devils brought from the Underworld are devils who most likely would never rely on the Void Shattering Pill. Void Shattering Pills are also expensive for any race, so that's one more reason to not use them."

Rean couldn't help but ask after that. "Now that I think about it, is there any demerit in using Void Shattering Pills for humanoids? Roan and I reached our level through normal cultivation, so we don't know."

"For humanoids?" Azitia sighed after hearing that. "As far as we know, they don't. As it was said, that was a pill created with the humanoid races in mind."

Rean nodded in response. "Well, the humanoids we found that had used the pills didn't seem to be weaker or anything like that. I'm just surprised that the other races don't know how to make pills with no drawbacks like the humanoids did."

Flan looked at Azitia after that. It was obvious that they were thinking the same thing. In the end, Azitia added another piece of information. "The humanoid race shouldn't have had that pill. It came from a certain place that we can't touch."

Rean and Roan's interest were piqued after that. "So that pill didn't exist in the past. No, better than that. Who gave them the recipe?"

Azitia shook his head, telling the two, "There's no point telling you that right now. You don't know them. Except for the demon beasts with high cultivation, almost no one knows they even exist."

Rean looked at Roan, who nodded back at him. 'It's probably the Vruve Organization.'
