Chapter 1428 – A Decision To Take
Sure enough, that would be the big issue, right? The continental barrier couldn’t be passed through that easily. First, the twins used the smugglers in Huring Continent. In Lanqueas, they relied on Wekil’s power to jump two continents away in a single go. But now, they had to find another method.
Roan, of course, also inquired about that information, saying, “This part is what put some guys on my tail after leaving the Vulture Organization. The information wasn’t for sale at first, so I had to brute force it with Rank Two Divine Stones.”
Sure enough, even in the center of the Treavin Continent, Rank Two Divine Stones were very rare. The Vulture Organization immediately sent people to follow Roan after he paid for information regarding the traversal of the continental barrier. Roan was at the Peak Stage of the Elemental Transformation Realm, which was a high cultivation level. However, there were a lot of cultivators in Valantior that were stronger than him. His Rank Two Divine Stones naturally attracted a lot of greedy eyes.
Well, Rean wasn’t concerned about it. “How long did it take for you to leave them behind?”
“A few seconds,” Roan answered. Sure enough, it wasn’t a simple task to track down Death itself. Especially when he had Rean’s concealing abilities to use. Last but not least, no Void Tempering Realm would do something like tag someone, so it was even easier to mislead those who were tailing him.
Roan then put those problems behind him as he said, “Forget about those pieces of shit. The problem here is the continental barrier. Surprisingly, there’s a way to enter the Pol Continent without using the official channels.”
“Official channels?” Falangia, obviously, didn’t know what Roan was talking about.
Rean then explained to her, “All the continents have official channels which they use to connect to other continents neighboring them. However, opening a tunnel through the continental barrier is anything but easy, especially for these powers. With that being said, few are allowed to use them, and such tunnels only open every several years. Roan and I aren’t part of any main power of the Treavin Continent, so we obviously can’t use those channels. Even worse, the fact we came into Treavin without using an official channel would only make things difficult for us.”
Falangia’s horizon was being expanded as Rean explained all of that. She never thought she would be hearing this kind of discussion that involved the top powers of the continents. “I see… Well, Roan said that there are other ways, right?”
Roan nodded. “Surprisingly, there’s one place in the Treavin Continent which has a constant connection with Pol Continent. It’s called the Under Desert Sea.”
Rean couldn’t help but ask, “Couldn’t you find some smugglers here?”
Roan shook his head in response, telling him, “I tried. However, the Vulture didn’t know if there was a group like that here, or maybe they didn’t want me to know about it.”
Rean then gave Falangia a quick explanation about what the smugglers did through a Divine Sense Message. Soon after, he asked Roan, “So, what is this Under Desert Sea?”
Roan began to explain. “Fortunately, I didn’t need the Vulture Organization to tell me that. You could find information about it in the other guilds as it seems to not be much of a secret. The place is exactly as the name suggests. There’s a sea under the desert that connects with the Pol Continent’s sea. No one knows exactly why, but the continental barrier is greatly weakened there. That means that even at our level, it’s possible to resist the barrier’s power without too many issues.”
How could Rean not understand Roan’s words? “However, it is still a dangerous place. Is that what you are saying?”
“Indeed,” Roan answered with a nod. “The continental barrier’s power is weakened, but that doesn’t mean it disappeared. There are several places where it comes and goes, and one might even die if one is swept by it. Demon beasts also roam that place, and they have developed some resistance to that environment, so they don’t need to care about the same issue. Those are demon beasts that constantly travel between Treavin and Pol, so they know their territory very well.”
“Last but not least, you have the sentient demon beasts of Pol Continent and the cultivators of Treavin. That passage between continents is constantly watched to prevent the other side from suddenly trying to launch a large-scale assault. Don’t forget, continents also wage war against each other. Treavin might be poor, but when considering the entire continent, there are still a lot of resources to take. Let alone Pol Continent, which is definitely rich in sea-related resources.”
Falangia already grew nervous after that. “Wouldn’t that make it impossible to pass through?”
Roan shook his head, saying, “The Under Desert Sea is huge and full of passages. It’s not wrong to say that it’s a natural labyrinth. Although both sides are under constant watch, that is only to prevent large-scale invasions. We’re talking about billions of beings launching an attack. It’s obviously impossible to reach the other side without anyone noticing. If it’s a small group like ours, there are plenty of places where we can pass by without attracting attention.”
Rean sighed as he asked, “However, very few try to get through, right?”
Roan nodded once again. “Indeed. The fact that it’s a dangerous place doesn’t change. I passed by the Alchemist Guild and did their test. That’s why I took so many hours to come back. After I passed, I got access to some of their general information. Usually, no one tries to go through that place without being at the Transition Realm at the very least.”
“Transition Realm?!” Falangia almost passed out when she heard that. That was nothing more than a legend in her ears. Such people could pretty much be called gods back in Dry Sky City. Little did she know that the twins’ power could match the strongest Transition Realm cultivators.
Then again, there was one problem. “Falangia, that’s what I have to tell you. Life in Pol Continent would obviously be much better.. However, the risk of travel could pretty much have you, and especially your daughter, killed. Are you willing to risk Rafatia’s life?”
