Death... and me
chapter-1045

Later that day, Rean and Roan went to see Kayla, who was setting up the new Divine Veins with Cynthia and the other elders. "How is it, sect master? Are these veins good?"

Kayla looked at the two without being able to conceal her excitement. "Hahaha! Of course! I set up the Golden Initial-level Divine Vein in the center, the Silver ones around it, and the Bronze ones on the outside. They're already starting to generate Divine Energy for my sect. I can't help but think about the recruitment period in a few months. Now that my sect has this many Divine Veins, there will be no lack of disciples asking to join us."

Rean and Roan nodded in response. This was also a good thing for Celis. After all, the sect would think that the sudden increase of Divine Energy was due to the Divine Veins. It's not wrong, of course. It's just that with Celis in the sect, the concentration of Divine Energy would become higher. "That's good to hear."

Rean then entered the main topic as he told her, "Anyway, we came to bid you farewell. Roan and I will be leaving for the time being as we have a few things to work on. However, we will leave Kentucky and Celis here if you don't mind."

Kurt's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Great! They can stay in my Beast Taming Hall. Thanks to them, I was finally able to tame the Stage Five Demon Eagle. If they stay for longer, I might be able to tame some others."

Kayla couldn't possibly mind that either. "No problem at all. Their presence would mean that we have two Stage Six Demon Beasts as part of our sect. How could that be a bad thing? If anything, I should thank you for letting them stay."

Cynthia couldn't help but ask after that, "Wait! If they're staying, does that mean you two are coming back later?"

Sure enough, Cynthia's question caught everyone's attention.

Rean nodded in response as he replied, "Yes, we will be back at some point. However, I can't say if we're coming back to stay or just to fetch Kentucky and Celis. In any case, we will stay out for more than a year, maybe even two."

"I see..." Cynthia understood as she nodded in response. "That's okay. If you decide to stay, we obviously welcome you once you're back."

Wuxan then asked something else. "Does it have something to do with what Fabio talked to you in private?"

The twins pondered over it for a bit and decided to nod. "You could say so. Unfortunately, we can't talk much about it as it was part of the agreement to stay silent."

Wuxan and the others nodded in response. "That's fine. The good thing was that you now have a connection with Fabio, so no one will try anything against you two, at least not in Cosec City and the surrounding places."

The twins then spoke a little more with Kayla and the others before finally leaving the sect. With that, they first went to Cosec City as they wanted to inquire about something in the Formation Guild's branch.

"A teleport formation that sends you straight to Kilas City in the north?" The attendant was surprised by that request.

Rean and Roan knew that their travel would take a long time. Back in the Realm of Mortals, neither Sunkan Planet nor the Zasfin Planet had teleport formations that could send someone more than a hundred or so kilometers away. However, this was the Realm of Gods, so perhaps they have such formations. If they could use teleport formations, it would be obviously much better. "Exactly. If the problem is payment, we do have some Divine Stones that we got from the assembly."

Kilas City was the next city if one went north from Cosec. Judging from the distance, Rean and Roan would take around a week to reach there at full speed.

Rean and Roan had also inquired Sister Orb about the Soul Gem Circuitry Teleport Formation. However, it seems like it only worked with Spiritual Energy. It can't resist the power of Divine Energy. With that being said, it was useless until an upgrade for it appeared in the reward system.

The attendant then nodded, telling them, "We do have a formation that can bring you that far. However, it's very expensive."

"Expensive to what degree?" Rean asked straight away.

The attendant then explained, "Teleport formations that use the environment Divine Energy can bring you as far as 300 or so kilometers away. Once that distance is surpassed, you need to fuel the teleport formation with Divine Stones. Also, the teleport formation's level has to be much higher to resist that greater influx of Divine Energy."

He continued, "With that said, the teleport to Kilas City would cost you 3000 Rank One Divine Stones."

The twins were taken aback. They didn't obtain so many Divine Stones in the assembly at all. "Isn't that way too expensive?"

The attendant nodded in response as he replied, "It is, but that's how much energy the formation needs to send you over. Of course, part of this payment is the formation's usage fee. After all, such long-distance teleports are very burdensome on the formation itself. The price has to compensate for the materials that might break once the teleport is over, as well as its maintenance. Last but not least, the payment for our guild as the ones who built that formation here and in Kilas City."

The twins immediately gave up on the idea. There was no way they could pay that much, and it was to teleport just to the next city. 3000 Divine Stones to save only a single week of travel was just too much for them.

"Forget it. There's no way we can pay all of that."

The attendant nodded in agreement. "If you have Divine Stones, it would be a lot more worthwhile to pay the Demon Beast Guild for a ride there with their Demon Birds. They often have groups of cultivators flying to other cities like that."

Rean and Roan had to admit it was a good idea. It wouldn't be Kentucky, but that was still better than walking. However, it was then that Rean had an idea. "Wait! Why don't we tame a Flying Demon Bird for ourselves instead?"
