Chapter 1065 – On The Way
Rean then retrieved the materials that could still be used from the formation before putting them inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. After that, his group spent the rest of their time cultivating. After all, Rascal had to rest for a few more hours. Since they had a lot of Divine Stones at the moment, the twins didn't care about saving them either.
*Puff…*
*Puff…*
*Crack… Puff…*
The sound of Divine Stones turning into dust after their energy was consumed echoed throughout the area every few minutes. At some point, Langara couldn't help but ask the two, "Can you really absorb all this Divine Energy like that?"
Rean looked at Langara before nodding, telling her, "We sure do. It's quite a pity that these Divine Stones levels are so low, though. Otherwise, we would be much faster." One must remember the size of the twins' energy pool, not to mention their perfect cultivation technique and the system's upgrades. Obviously, they could absorb much more energy in less time.
"I've been wondering for a while now. Are you two really humans? Or could it be that you're part of some other race with some high Divine Energy Affinity?" Langara could not help but ask soon after.
"We're humans. It's just that we have access to a few extra perks as part of the Royal Family." Sure enough, it was a lot easier to simply use the Royal Family as an excuse.
A few hours later, Rascal finally woke up, full of energy. Rean had given him a lot of food that he liked and didn't bother him during his rest at all.
*Cree! Cree!*
Rean smiled at the guy, who reminded him of the time Kentucky didn't have sentience. Well, not counting the perverted part that Kentucky seemed to have innately acquired. "Hahaha! Alright, alright. We can go now." Rean looked at everyone and told them, "Let's go. We still have a long way to go until Erqs Forest."
As always, Rean kept his Light and Divine Sense bending skill active. When they began to pass through the core region of the demon beasts' territory, Rean would catch the presence of Divine Senses of demon beasts at Stage Eight or Nine. However, since he was able to feel it at the very border of their Divine Senses, he could change Rascol's direction before they became too strong for him to bend.
At first, Langara and Fatax were very concerned about having to fight or flee from high-level demon beasts. They were also concerned about fighting or fleeing from demon beasts at the same level as themselves but in much greater numbers. However, they soon came to understand that the twins had some way to avoid those battles.
Along the way, Roan asked Rascal to come down into the forest a few times, which he used to collect a few rare herbs he saw. He then sent them all into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, which Celis's saplings took care of. His herb garden, which he used quite a few times for him and Rean, was still growing.
Once they were close to leaving the demon beasts' territory, Langara asked the two a favor. "If possible, can we avoid Giliga City and head straight to the next one? Of course, if you need to get more supplies or something like that, you can ignore me."
Roan shrugged his shoulders as he told her, "To be honest, we were going to ignore it anyway. First, your clan probably knows that you looked for Beast Tamers heading straight to Giliga City. There's a good chance of having more hunters waiting at the city entrances."
Langara nodded in agreement. "Indeed. That's also the reason why I would rather avoid Giliga at the moment."
Roan was happy to hear that. "Good. The second reason to ignore Giliga is that we simply have no need to go there. We're sort of in a hurry to reach the fairies' territory in Erqs Forest, so we will fly there as fast as possible."
It turns out that Langara and Roan were right. As soon as Rean removed the tracking seal in Langara's soul, the Clan Head side of the Talan Clan immediately noticed it. After all, the compass Rean was using wasn't the only one available. Not to mention that Rean and Roan took away Volrei's spatial ring as well. With that being said, he didn't have access to his own Thoughts Transmission Talismans to warn the clan that their ambush failed.
The Clan Head's forces had no other choice other than to move their forces stationed in Giliga City to watch the entrance. In the end, they didn't know where Langara was going as she hadn't told anyone about that. Even her own side of the clan who supported her didn't know. She simply said that she was leaving to try and resolve their problems. Even Fatax only came to know about it when they were already far away from the Talan Clan.
Rean and Roan predicted with the maps that they verified the travel would take up to four months. Since they began to ignore most cities, they more or less started to make a beeline for Erqs Forest. And just like that, three months went by without any concerns to speak of.
At the moment, Rascal had landed near a small village in the middle of the mountains. It was at this moment that Rean could finally say that this was the real 'small' he knew about. There weren't millions of residents as in all the cities he saw so far. 'Well, I wouldn't be surprised if they called a place with a million or two residents a village compared to their 'small cities' that have hundreds of millions of people in them.'
The village only had two thousand or so people, all from the same race, the Cosgles. Their cultivations weren't high either, with their village elder only being in the Initial Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm. Plus, he was quite old at that.
Seeing that such a strong group of cultivators appeared in their remote home, the villagers couldn't help but feel somewhat nervous. It was very rare for anyone to appear in a place like this. Of course, that only happened because the twins completely ignored the cities' paths.
Nevertheless, their head came forward to greet them. "Hello, friends.. I'm Aien Sarthana. Is there something you need from our small settlement?"
