Chapter 2569: More Green

Roan and Kentucky then resumed their journey. In the following days, Rean sent a message to Roan, saying that his Scythe was repaired. After that, he went back to Celis's side, and the two cultivated while Roan and Kentucky traveled. Things improved after that. Contrary to Rean's fear, it didn't really take years for Roan to finally end up in a location present in the Star Charts they got. It was only three months later that Kentucky and Roan confirmed where they were after traveling around that place.

"What?! You found where we are?!" Rean quickly came out and took the Star Chart Roan mentioned. He then heard the explanation from the two and had to admit they were indeed in the right place. "So we ended up being teleported to the Fofisbe Quadrant, uh... According to the chart, the Realm of Gods should be in that direction."

Roan nodded. "If the chart isn't wrong, we shouldn't take more than a few weeks of constant Spatial Gate traveling to get there."

Kentucky was happy enough. "Your Spatial Gates go much further than mine, so you don't have a need for me now that you know the direction. I'm going back to the Dimensional Realm."

Roan didn't mind. "Just make sure you help Rean and Celis cultivate then."

"Ehhhh?" Kentucky didn't like that, though. However, there was no way Rean and Roan would let Kentucky simply laze around.

"Is there a reason you called me outside here?" Rean then asked Roan. "You could have simply continued the journey. There wasn't really a need to tell me."

"Yes," said Roan. "If the charts are correct, when we arrive at the Realm of Gods, we should land near the Gromandel Continent."

Rean didn't really remember a continent with that name. "Is there something special about it?"

"That's a Devil Race's continent, although it is one of those continents located far deep into the Realm of Gods. Chances are we won't find a single Devil there due to how isolated it is," Roan began to explain. "However, this is also a continent near the territories of the humanoid races on the southeast of the Realm of Gods."

Rean finally understood what Roan was talking about. "Oh! That's convenient, then. However, is it really okay to go there now? I truly think we should go take your Alchemist Workshop back and consume the pills. It is a huge waste of effort to continue cultivating without them."

The reason it was convenient was because the Hustis Continent was located near the Devils' Territory, also deep into the Humanoid Territories. Once they land there, it would be easy to go to Hustis, especially since the Continental Barriers are down. Well, at the twins' level, the Continent Barriers posed little resistance anyway. "That's why I called you. Do you want to ignore it for now, or do you want to take a look? If we ignore it, then it will be better to simply take the Alchemist Workshop back and go straight to Huban instead. You are the one who has to refine that Universe Foundation Fragment, so it is up to you if you think you can do that," Roan asked seriously.

Rean pondered a bit about the time he spent in the new Blacksmith Workshop. "During those ten years, I've learned everything about the new circuitry forging machines in there. Not to mention, I got a lot of help from the guys from Earth and Sunkan. It simply doesn't matter anymore whether I delay our visit to Huban or not, so let's ignore Hustis for now. The earlier we visit Huban, the earlier I can give it a try. If things go wrong, we can start thinking about other methods sooner, too."

"Very well," Roan nodded, seeing no problem with Rean's decision.

With that said, Rean returned to the Dimensional Realm while Roan changed the course of his Spatial Gates. Just like that, he continued his journey for a few more weeks. Finally, the gigantic form of Hyeoumu began to take shape in the distance. Of course, the Realm of Gods was enormous. Even if he could see the shape now, he was still very far. Roan still had to keep opening Spatial Gates for another three weeks straight to finally reach the Realm of Gods' outer layer.

There was a reason most cultivators, demon beasts, and spirits didn't exit the Realm of Gods, Hyeoumu's natural barrier. That gigantic being created a layer of energy around itself to protect from most things coming from outer space. However, that layer was very weak when Roan arrived. Even someone in the Void Tempering Realm could cross it without any issues.

Roan didn't find it surprising, though. It wasn't hard to imagine why it was so weak. 'Well, the Continental Barriers were the energy source of the layer. With the Continental barriers down, it makes sense that the layer is so thin.'

Roan pierced through that protection with ease, finally entering the Realm of Gods once again. 'Let me see...' he changed the Star Charts for the Maps of the Realm of Gods. 'Xonichi Continent, uh? Then the nearest long-distance teleport formation should be in this direction.'

*Zush!*

Another Spatial Gate and Roan disappeared from sight. Now, a day was more than enough for him to reach a big city where he finally got access to a teleport formation. Different from the others waiting in line, Roan simply paid the value of a teleport in full and left Xonichi straight away. Of course, he didn't forget to change his appearance once again.

With the Long-Distance Teleport Formations, things got a lot easier. In just a few more days, Roan was already back in the Demon Beasts' Territory, teleporting straight to Futuxei's home continent. 'Hum...?' When he finally reached the area where Futuxei lived, he found it quite surprising. 'Was this place so lush like this before?'

The last time they had been to this continent, the area around where you could find Futuxei was indeed filled with green. That was thanks to Futuxei's presence. However, that area seemed to have increased several times in size, and the forests there were even more dense. 'Is it an effect of the Earth Life Pill?' Roan couldn't help but wonder.
