Death… And Me Chapter 1394: Absolutely Not The Case

Chapter 1394: Absolutely Not The Case

A desert...

That was the best way to describe Treavin Continent. There were no such things as forests or seas. It was truly a continent filled with nothing more than sand, sand, and even more sand. Rean's group just so happened to appear inside this continent, close to the border between Treavin and Yubisval.

"So hot..." Rean said as soon as they appeared. "How hot is it? Like 50 degrees?"

Roan nodded in response, saying, "Probably something along those lines." He then looked around, but all he could see was an endless amount of sand dunes. "Celis, I'll send you back into the Dimensional Realm."

Celis also wanted the same thing, so he said, "Sure, I'll go back to cultivate." Celis then disappeared from the desert.

Rean and Roan then jumped on Kentucky after that. "Kentucky, let's fly. We don't really know where we are at the moment, so you can just fly in any direction. Of course, ignore the continental barrier behind us. Fly somewhere in the opposite direction."

Kentucky didn't waste time and immediately took flight. "Hmm... since the continental barrier is behind us and beyond it is Yubisval, then the Jhiod Continent should be on the opposite side. I guess I'll simply fly straight in that direction."

The twins didn't mind and instead sat down to focus on their newly acquired power. They had just jumped an entire realm in cultivation, so they needed to get used to it.

Rean didn't use the Light and Divine Sense bending skill, so Kentucky, now even bigger due to his breakthrough, could be easily seen. Not only that, but he also flew close to the ground, trying to attract the attention of possible cultivators or demon beasts.

Sure enough, the very first lifeform they encountered was a desert demon beast, a twin-tailed sand scorpion. When Kentucky pa.s.sed, flying leisurely over its resting place, the scorpion immediately attacked. The sand beneath Kentucky exploded in a storm of sand that immediately covered Kentucky's group.

The scorpion then jumped from within the storm and aimed its two pincers at two different positions of Kentucky's body. Even if he defended against one, the other was sure to prevail... or that was supposed to happen.

*Clang, clang!*

*Crack, crack!*

The two pincers. .h.i.t Kentucky's body... and broke apart like gla.s.s. The scorpion's double pincer attack was completely unable to break through Kentucky's defense. Seeing that it had chosen the wrong opponent, the scorpion immediately dove into the sand, trying to escape. Unfortunately for it, Kentucky didn't let him go. "Hey, look! We finally found a demon beast."

Kentucky didn't even need to move his body. Just his own Divine Energy alone was enough to hold the scorpion in place. Kentucky then focused some Divine Energy in his wings before flipping them once. 

*Vuaaaa...*

Just like that, the sand storm the scorpion created dispersed as if it had never been there to start with. Kentucky then landed with the twins as they looked at the scorpion. "Stage Four Demon Beast, huh?"

"No wonder it risked an attack. If its cultivation was higher, it would have understood that Kentucky wasn't an opponent for it to meddle with from the very start," Rean said.

Roan narrowed his eyes, though. "Why did we even stop? Just let it go and continue."

Kentucky then looked at Roan and said, "Oh, it's just that I thought it to be quite surprising that the first demon beast we found is already at Stage Four. After all, demon beasts at Stage Three and below should be several times more numerous."

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "It's fine. In the end, us two are in the Peak Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm, while you're at Peak Stage Eight. On top of that, we can easily dispatch average Transition Realm cultivators. It'll be way too hard to find demon beasts here in Treavin Continent that can possibly pose a threat to us." Rean then touched the locked scorpion and used his Instant Recovery skill. In a matter of seconds, both of the scorpion's two pincers regrew. 

Rean couldn't help but comment, "Too bad it doesn't have intelligence. Otherwise, we could at least ask for directions..." 

However, it was then that Kentucky intervened, "Oh, I don't think that's a problem. Look over there. There seem to be some people coming at us."

Rean and Roan had to narrow their eyes to barely make out the dots in the distance. If not because they were in an advantageous position, it would be very hard to notice those guys. "Your vision is impressive as always, Kentucky."

Surprisingly, all those people had their own mounts, and those mounts were also twin-tailed sand scorpions. Although it didn't look like it, the scorpions were really very fast in the desert.

However, when those people got closer, they also noticed Kentucky. After all, the Minokawa was several meters high already. Kentucky still needed to reach the Transition Realm before he could take a human form or shrink his body. Only Celis could do that because he was at the Transition Realm in the past.

Sure enough, those people stopped in their tracks and pondered if they should get close or not. Rean's group didn't seem the type of people they should offend.

Of course, Rean's group wouldn't let the chance pa.s.s up. Kentucky immediately took flight and shot in the group's direction. Due to the difference in cultivation, it looked more like Kentucky was coming to attack them, although he was flying leisurely instead. Everyone then braced for the impact, expecting Kentucky to land a huge blow to their group.

However, Kentucky simply flapped his wings once, and he came to an instant halt in midair before landing in the middle of the group. He didn't say anything, though. Instead, Roan and Kentucky let Rean do the talking as always.

"h.e.l.lo, everyone! It's nice to meet you all."

The people on their scorpions looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Now that Rean was closer, they could check him with their Divine Senses. However, they couldn't feel the cultivation of anyone in Rean's group at all. That could only mean two things. Rean's group had no cultivation whatsoever, or their cultivation was so much higher that their Divine Senses couldn't detect them.. Of course, after seeing Kentucky's display of speed, the first option was absolutely not the case.
