Chapter 302: Information Share

It wasn't a lie when Rean and Roan were told that Juan Amakal accepted anyone willing to look for Latalia. Because of that, that specific Core Region area had a few more cultivator groups than usual. Of course, considering the necessary level to explore this place, that number wasn't that high.

Still, Rean and Roan ended finding more of them. It looked like the Serene Blue Jade was tempting not only for the twins but also for several other powers. Fortunate or not, they didn't seem interested in attacking the twins.

However, that also made the search of the other three Umbral Sect Groups easier since they could ask those groups if they had seen Rean and Roan.

Unfortunately for them, they didn't know that the Umbral Energy inside their bodies could be perceived from a much higher distance than their Spiritual Senses could reach. Thanks to that, Rean had enough time to react and send Kentucky into the Dimensional Realm before concealing him and Roan. He preferred to do that since he could also practice using the skill. Otherwise, the twins could also go into the Dimensional Realm.

Just like that, the time continued to pass as Rean and Roan looked for mountains with four peaks. In a 3000 kilometer radius, there was really a lot of them to be checked. Soon enough, another two days passed in a flash.

Roan was quite satisfied since they were 'lucky' enough to find more Stage Four Demon Beasts. That made them go all out to defend themselves, including Kentucky. It's just that defeating those Demon Beasts and killing them were completely different stories. Even the Sixth Form, Destroyer, wasn't strong enough to the point where it could instantly kill the big ones. That being said, just like the Spider Mother, most of them fled once they saw that they couldn't win.

However, it wasn't always the demon beasts who fled. Rean, Roan, and Kentucky had to put their tails between their legs and sometimes run as well. Middle Stage Four Demon Beasts and higher were indeed just too strong. The Tusk Earth Lizard had only died due to the terrible compatibility between it and the twins' abilities. Sure enough, breaching more than an entire cultivation realm to fight was anything but easy.

Suddenly, Rean's Thoughts Transmission Talisman shone inside his robe. Seeing that, he immediately took it out and put it on his forehead. The Talisman then released a stream of Spiritual Energy that entered his head. Following that, the marks on the Talisman disappeared after relaying the message.

Roan noticed a change in Rean's expression, so he immediately asked.

"Was it the Lopin Clan guys?"

Roan asked that since they didn't only have the Thoughts Transmission Talismans from Rovan's group. They also had a few others like Droman and Old Worm's.

Rean confirmed with a smile.

"It was them, indeed. It seems like they found a mountain with four peaks around 550 kilometers from here. They are asking us to come over to verify if that is what we are looking for."

Roan nodded, satisfied.

"It seems like they didn't flee with the Umbral Sect Members' items after we left. That's quite good already."

Rean and Roan had to admit that they were expecting Rovan's group to leave straight away after they gave up the items. However, it seemed like the other part knew how to keep their word.

"Anyway, let's go. Still, once we get around 20 or so kilometers close, we should stop and go by foot. There is still a chance that the Umbral Sect might have found out about them and forced their group to deliver this message to us."

Rean nodded, not minding that too much.

The twins then called Kentucky over and immediately began to run in the direction mentioned by Rovan and his group. Even now, the twins still preferred to not fly since it would catch too much attention.

Back on Rovan's group side, they looked around as their vision expanded to the horizon. They were now at the highest peak of the mountain they found. However, there was one thing making them puzzled.

"This mountain does have four peaks, but there are almost no herbs on this one. Is this really the place that black-haired twin talked about? I don't think the herbs here are of much use. At least, I don't feel much Spiritual Energy inside them, nor can I recognize any rare one."

Rovan shook his head.

"None of us are alchemists, so we can't really guarantee if these herbs are wrong or not. The important part is that we did find this Four Peaks Mountain. Even if they say that this wasn't what they were looking for, it will still serve the purpose of building a good relationship."

Ervan, who was also hearing their conversation, then asked something else.

"What if what they are looking for are not herbs? Could this mountain have something they want instead?"

Rovan pondered a bit as he looked around. However, he couldn't see anything out of the ordinary with his Spiritual Sense.

"It seems pretty normal for me."

Yet, Ervan felt like he was missing something after they failed to identify any valuable herb.

"Father, I'll go take a look around. Is that okay?"

Roan nodded, not minding too much.

"Alright. Just make sure to not leave the range of my Spiritual Sense."

Rovan then looked at the other two elders before saying.

"You two go with Ervan as well. I'll stay here on the peak to watch around. Fortunately, there are no clouds around this mountain, so I have a privileged vision here."

The two elders nodded, and they immediately departed with Ervan.

Meanwhile, the three Umbral Sect groups had just gathered once again somewhere in the Core Region.

Their leader, Lian Buran, looked at the other two groups as he narrowed his eyes.

"Where is Gugo's group? They were supposed to have arrived already."

The others looked at each other, but they all shook their heads.

"We've been here for quite some time already. Still, we haven't seen even a shadow of Gugo and his group members."

Lian pondered a bit before taking a Thoughts Transmission Talisman from his robe. Right after, the Talisma burnt as the message was sent. Lian then took another Thoughts Transmission Talisman from his robe and began to wait. He had just used one Talisman to send a message. Now Lian was using the other to wait for an answer. Obviously, the one he tried to contact was the so-called Gugo's Group.

However, even after ten minutes of wait, no answer came back at all.

"This..."

"Could it be that something went wrong?"

Lian nodded.

"Most likely."

Vio then guessed.

"Would there be a group capable of taking Gugo's group down without giving him a chance to contact us back?"

"If that is the case, I can only think about Nascent Soul Realm cultivators or Stage Five Demon beasts. Even a Peak Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator wouldn't be able to finish Gugo that easily. Besides, Wilk was with him. With two Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivators in the group, at least one would have been able to escape."

Lian shook his head in response.

"That way of thinking is too simple. They might have been ambushed as well, which didn't give Gugo a chance of contacting us back. Don't forget that only Gugo has the Thoughts Transmission Talisman on him. If he died straight away, the others wouldn't be able to do anything to warn us."

Sames, another Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator, then asked.

"Could it be the Dalamu Sect? Considering the importance of Rean to that Sect, it wouldn't be weird if he had Thoughts Transmission Talismans on him. Maybe he called for reinforcements after finding that we were here somehow? If that is the case, we might be really dealing with higher-level cultivators here. Should we give up this search?"

Lian shook his head once more.

"No. The chances of that happening are too low. Let's keep searching for them. However, keep your Thoughts Transmission Talismans in your hands all the time. If you see that you get ambushed or found something wrong, use it immediately. That should at least give the other remaining two groups time to react."

Vio and Sames nodded. After that, their group discussed a few more things before once again separating. The search continued.
