Death... and me

Chapter 2215 Getting Closer

A few minutes later, Kentucky and Rean were already flying away, leaving La Mataia behind. They didn't have much to do there anyway. They got a Jade Slip from the Mantis and made a copy of it. Inside, there was a simple map of the surrounding territories. According to the Purple-Colored Mantis, the biggest Demon City he knew about was many years of distance, and he was sure they didn't have a Long-Distance Teleport Formation either since he had been there before.

Rean and Kentucky didn't mind it since many years for the Mantis wouldn't be more than a day or so with Rean's Spatial Gates. "Are you sure you don't want to stay a little longer and see if more Demon Beasts want to come with us?" Asked Kentucky.

Rean shook his head. "Once in the Transition Realm, those Demon Beasts become the leaders of their races in such a desolate place. Hoshi was an exception since he wasn't from any of the two races he became a hybrid from. If we were to give them a chance, they most likely would ask to bring their races or abandon their races altogether. The first option would take too long, while I truly don't like the sound of the second."

Kentucky nodded. "I guess that was the difference during the time I was recruiting Demon Beasts. I had time to allow them to gather their own races before bringing them all together."

"That's pretty much it," said Rean with a smile. "Alright, this should be far enough." Rean then created a crack in space, quickly opening another Spatial Gate.

The two of them entered it, disappearing inside a moment later. The gate then closed behind, leaving no traces of their existence.

It indeed only took a day to reach somewhere near the next city—also another hour to find the city by acquiring information about the surroundings. This Demon Beast City was bigger than La Mataia, called Yutika. Yutika was the name of a race that controlled it too.

Kentucky did the same thing as before, quickly attracting the city's strongest Demon Beast. This one was in the Middle Stage of the Void Tempering Realm, which was a great achievement for the place he lives in. It was also this Yutika Race Demon Beast that first recognized Rean. "Is the man on your back part of the humanoid races, perhaps?" He asked.

Rean's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Oh! That's correct. I'm indeed part of the humanoid races. Have you seen more of us around here? Oh, right. My name is Rean."

The Yutika nodded. "I'm Grinwe, sir. Yes, I have seen other members of the Humanoid Races twice before. They also came to our city looking for information and departed right after. It was many, many years ago, though."

"It's fine. I'm not here looking for them anyway. It is just a coincidence," said Rean. "By the way, I noticed you guys have a teleport formation."

Grinwe nodded. "That's the pride of our Yutika City. It is truly hard to get a Demon Beast with any knowledge at all about formations this far from the center of the Realm of Gods, so you could say we were lucky too."

"Alright..." Rean didn't seem very interested in that part. "Anyway, how far can it teleport us? We are trying to go to the center of the Realm of Gods. Since you know we were in the Realm of Gods at all, you should have some knowledge about it."

Grinwe nodded. "To be honest, we have been visited by a member of the Dragon Race before, which was the moment we got our knowledge about it. As for the teleport formation, it should be able to teleport you to the city nearest to the Continental Barrier."

Rean couldn't help but sigh. If he used his Spatial Gates, he was confident he would get there in a day or two at most. "Do you know any city with Long-Distance Teleport Formations in the nearby continents?"

Surprisingly, Grinwe nodded. "Yes. You can find one three continents away from here. Would you like a Jade Slip with the map?"

Kentucky and Rean were taken aback. They didn't have hope since this was the Demon Beast Territories. Yet, there was finally one. "Of course!"

Grinwe then passed a Jade Slip over. "It's the biggest Demon Beast city you will find in the nearby continents. Usually, it would be hard to get there since the Continental barriers are in the way. Yet, the Continental Barriers are gone for some reason, so it shouldn't be a big issue. Well, considering your cultivation levels, I don't think it would have been a problem anyway."

It wouldn't be a problem even if their cultivation was low since Luan still had Fluki with him.

Rean took the Jade Slip and checked the content. It was quite detailed, showing the few cities in the nine continents it displayed. Of course, compared to the humanoid continents, there wasn't even a hundredth as many cities as you would find there. Demon Beasts Cities were still quite rare.

Kentucky and Rean didn't intend to spend much longer there, so they quickly bid farewell to Grinwe. "Alright, thanks for the information. It was a great help!"

"Oh, right!" Rean then took a Spatial Ring from the Dimensional Realm and threw it to Grinwe. "This is for your help and especially because you made me very happy."

Rean knew that if he showed the contents of the ring outside, Grinwe might get into a lot of trouble, so he just gave him the Spatial Ring and let Grinwe decide what to do with it. As for the contents, there were twenty Rank Four Divine Stones. It was truly a fortune worth battling to death for in a place like this. Grinwe almost choked when he saw the content. However, he quickly recovered and bowed to Rean and Kentucky. "Thank you for your help, sirs."

Rean and Kentucky nodded. Right after, Rean checked the map before opening a Spatial Gate above the city. The two of them were gone just like that.
