Death… And Me

Chapter 1306 - Grinha City

Chapter 1306 - Grinha City

Well, Rean did just that. He was the one traveling from teleport formation to teleport formation. Since he wasn't part of any of the big powers of the Lanqueas Continent, he had to pay for all of the teleport formations he used. There was also the fact that he couldn't use them straight away but instead had to wait for their daily activation. If he arrived after that, then he had to wait until the next day. Fortunately, Rank One Divine Stones were enough to pay for teleport between cities close to each other.

Galanmord Region was a cold place. In the Realm of Gods, such things as seasons weren't very accurate in most places. The places that had seasons were rare, and it was usually because of the intervention of cultivators. Galanmord was one of those regions without accurate seasons. Even though the regions around it were also cold like Galanmord, they weren't completely covered in snow.

Trimazo was one of the twelve countries included in the Galanmord Region, located at the very center. Even though it was a cold place, Trimazo Country received cultivators of all cultivation levels all year long. That's because the Lost Star Realm was located here. According to Langara Talan, that was the place where she got injured, being forced to escape into the neighboring country. It's just that she had never told the twins how that happened.

This was obviously the place where Langara found the Fallen Light Star Fragment. Rean needed them so that he could use the fragments as a catalyst for his eventual breakthrough to the Elemental Transformation Realm. As mentioned before, materials purely biased towards Light or Dark Element were very hard to find.

Grinha City, the closest town to the entrance of the Lost Star Realm...

The teleport formation in the Formation Guild flashed with silver light as hundreds of cultivators of different levels appeared on it. Those that had arrived were in multiple groups, while there were also those who arrived alone. The workers in the Formation Guild then immediately asked those people to move away. Since it was the closest city to the entrance of the Lost Star Realm, the town received teleports all day long with no time for breaks whatsoever. There were several of them at that.

In the midst of the group, no one paid much attention to a brown-haired cultivator passing through. He didn't look anything special, after all. He moved alone, eventually leaving the teleport formation as he headed to the center of Grinha City... well, he was already there in the first place. The Formation Guild always kept the branches close to the city center anyway.

The brown-haired guy then looked around as he made his way to the market, where he intended to look for a specific item.

Once again, Grinha City's location greatly favored the economy. With that said, the city had been expanding for hundreds of years since the appearance of the Lost Star Realm. Thus, the market area extended for tens of kilometers. Treasure shops, weapon shops, armor shops, alchemy shops, talisman shops... if it could be sold, then it would be there.

On top of that, they were also easily separated by their quality. The best shop had entire buildings for themselves, while individual cultivators opened their stalls along the streets with their findings from the Lost Star Realm. In fact, Grinha City was the best place to sell one's findings from the Lost Star Realm. After all, anyone who came to this place to buy something was most likely because they needed something from there.

Even though so many different shops could be found there, the young man knew what he was exactly looking for. He took out some kind of tablet, which contained many inscriptions, before pouring his Divine Energy inside. The tablet lightly shone for a moment before a small stream of energy took the form of an arrow that pointed in a certain direction. 'Oh! So there really is some of it in the market. Perhaps I won't even need to enter the Lost Star Realm in the end.'

Following the arrow, the young brown-haired man arrived at a stall a few kilometers later. By the time he arrived, he saw what looked like a tiny white crystal that shone with gentle light, a light that was pretty similar to his tablet. 'So small, that won't be enough at all...'

Of course, he wouldn't just ignore it like that. He knew that this thing would be very difficult to find, so that tiny piece might make a world's difference in the end. However, just as he was about to reach for that tiny piece of white crystal, another hand also came at it, bumping with his own.

The young brown-haired man then looked at the other person and said, "Sir, I saw this piece first, you know?"

Rean then looked at that young brown-haired man in response. He was surprised that someone else other than him would come after the Fallen Light Star Fragment as well. Rean had arrived a few days prior to this young brown-haired man. However, rather than heading straight to it, he decided to stay in the city to gather information.

It turns out that not only were Fallen Light Star Fragments really hard to find, being mostly located at the core of the Lost Star Realm, no one wasted time gathering them. In the end, they would only be useful for someone who had Light Element Affinity. Cultivators that used Yang Energy to manipulate Light Element would prefer items biased towards Yang Energy instead. Obviously, items filled with Yang Energy were countless times easier to find, and one didn't need to come here to get them. If anything, this cold place called the Galanmord Region was a terrible choice to search for them.

In any case, Rean didn't enter the Lost Star Realm after learning about it. He didn't know if a Fallen Light Star Fragment would end up appearing or not. Perhaps someone felt that they had some use. Which was why he was still in the city. Unfortunately for him, even after many days, this tiny piece was the very first one to ever appear. Above all that, Rean also got someone competing with him for it.

Naturally, Rean wouldn't give up just like that. "Sorry, brother.. However, I really need a lot of these Fallen Light Star Fragments."
