Death... and me
chapter-2346

"Anyway, it is definitely worth a try," said Roan.

Rean nodded. "Indeed. Mom, give me them so that I can try."

Yet, before Rean even extended his hand, Hamarlia had already bit her finder. "This is mine, so I'll do it." Right after, she released a drop of her blood on her locket, leaving Rana's locket on the side.

As soon as the drop of blood fell on her locket, the was instantly absorbed by the locket, which began to shine with an even brighter golden color.

There was also the other locket. This time, it was Rean who used a drop of his blood. After all, as the son of Hamarlia, he obviously was part of the same bloodline. Yet, this locket had absolutely no reaction other than the same one from before.

"Hum... could it be my bloodline is too thin?" Rean wondered.

Hamarlia then used the same cut to release another drop of her blood on the locket from Rana. Unfortunately, the result was the same. The blood had no use. Both Rean and Hamarlia's blood just stayed there, not being absorbed at all. "What do we do now?"

"Just put both lockets close to each other again," Roan suggested. "Perhaps with one activated, it might be enough to get some reaction."

Rean and Hamarlia put the lockets close to each other. The locket that had absorbed Hamarlia's blood immediately reacted. The brighter and the lesser golden lights once again merged together, changing the picture of the map slightly. Yet, it wasn't the map that caught everyone's attention. Instead, it was the blood-golden arrow light pointing in several different directions nonstop.

Seeing that, Sister Orb had an idea. "Isn't this thing acting like kind of a compass?"

Everyone had to admit her words made sense. "It can't find a direction, though."

That's because we are inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm," Roan immediately understood. "Let's go outside and see what happens."

*Zush, zush, zush, zush, zush...*

The twins' group quickly appeared outside, holding the lockets in their hands. The lockets were still acting together. Yet, this time, the blood-golden arrow began to stabilize. After a few seconds, it finally stopped moving, pointing in a specific direction. "This direction..."

"Does any of you know where it is pointing at?" Kentucky asked.

However, everyone shook their heads. "No. We can't even tell where it is in the Realm of Gods. Is it in the Realm of Gods to start with? It's just a general direction, nothing else."

Turen looked in that direction. "Well, one thing is sure: this thing is not pointing in the direction of the Central Area of the Realm of Gods. At the moment, that's all I can say."

Indeed, the twins' group at least knew the direction of the Central Area of the Realm of Gods, and the arrow wasn't pointing there.

"Sigh..." Rean then looked at everyone. "What do we do now? Do we follow the arrow, not knowing how far it is? Don't forget Kentucky, and I need to be back before the three-month time is up. We have joined the army to look for that member of the Essence Race, after all."

Roan immediately shook his head. "Even though we don't really need to worry about being excluded from the army since we can simply change our appearances again, I prefer to go there now. At least we have a clear objective in mind. Rana should not be in any danger at the moment since she would definitely have warned us if that was the case. The member of the Essence Race might not be the case, though."

Rean and the others nodded. Right after, Rean passed Rana's locket to Hamarlia. "Mom, you hold into these two lockets then. Perhaps you will find some other secrets to its mechanisms."

Hamarlia didn't mind. "Alright, then send me back home."

The twins nodded, and Hamarlia disappeared from the outside world. Turen and Roan did the same, disappearing in the next second. Only Kentucky and Rean were left outside. "Let's go back, Kentucky."

Kentucky nodded and waited for Rean to open a spatial gate. The two of them entered it, leaving the Huring Continent sometime later. As for all the changes Rean's Elements Gathering Weapons made, there was nothing he could do about it. Still, he wondered just how long it would take until the Central Area of the Realm of Gods noticed this new type of weapon. 'Well, it should be fun to watch when the time comes. If I'm not wrong, Jamai Sect most likely already began to put its eyes on it.'

Another week and something passed when a Spatial Gate appeared near the Jhiod Sect. Kentucky and Rean came out, flying the rest of the way and meeting Gean once again there.

'So, did you like the changes in Huring?' Gean smiled as he asked.

Rean scratched the back of his head. 'I didn't expect my weapons would cause such a huge change. Of course, this is mostly due to the disappearance of the Continental Barrier.'

Gean nodded. 'Indeed. Still, if the Huring Sacred Land plays its cards right, it might truly emerge as a big power in this continental region. Well, they are quite far away from us, and we also have your forging method, so it matters little to us. By the way, good saber!'

"Hahaha!" Rean couldn't help but laugh. 'I thought you would like it. Compared to the weapons forged with the method I shared, your saber is like gold compared to dirt.'

Gean knew he was telling the truth. 'Thank you, especially for those cores. I'll make sure to keep them hidden.'

'That's for your own good,' Rean added.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Rean and Kentucky finally stepped on the Teleport Formation. They quickly passed the Rank Seven Divine Stones necessary to activate the teleport, which was promptly carried by the various formations masters. 'Good bye, senior Gean.'

'I hope to see you guys again,' Gean smiled and nodded.

Finally, with a flash of silver light, Rean and Kentucky disappeared from Jhiod Sect.
