Death… And Me

Chapter 2724 Payment for Information

2724  Payment for Information

Samuel was experienced, so he quickly calmed down after he found out he could move again. He raised from his chair, bowing at Rean. "Hello, sir. It was our mistake for not coming out and receiving you. I hope you forgive my clan elder's mistake who just tried to attack you."

"Hahaha!" Rean just laughed. "It's fine! It's fine! I'm the one to blame here. It's just that I'm in a little of a hurry, so I just searched for the strongest cultivator around and found you here; thus, here I am. Besides, I'm probably a few thousand years younger than you, so you don't really need to call me sir. Just call me by my name, Rean."

Samuel nodded, relieved. Rean didn't seem to have bad intentions. If anything, he might gain something from this interaction instead. As for Rean being much younger than him, he didn't doubt. As the leader of the Blanvie Clan, he knew very well that people from the Center of the Realm of Gods were much stronger. "Thank you, Rean. So, what can my Blanvie Clan help you with?"

Rean smiled and asked. "You see, I'm looking for information regarding this continent. In specific, information regarding any area where weird phenomenons happen. Anything is valid since I don't expect it to be anything big."

"Weird phenomenons?" Samuel and the other elders narrowed their eyes. The Realm of Gods was full of such places, and their continent definitely had a few of those. "Well, on top of my head, I can think about three places."

"Oh!" Rean got interested. "Please speak."

"The first one is a lightning realm," Samuel began. "The weird thing about this realm is that there aren't any conditions for such a place to take form. And yet, it is there. Up to this day, we still haven't found the reason. Our best guess is that it has some natural treasure that attracts those lightning clouds in the surroundings tens of thousands of kilometers."

Samuel talked about the Lightning Realm, giving all the details he could think of during the next tens of minutes.

Rean quickly memorized the information. Although it seemed a big thing, in the scale of the Realm of Gods, a few tens of thousands of kilometers couldn't even be considered a spec of dust. It wasn't anything impressive for a single continent, either.

"You can find the Lightning Realm on the Northeast side of the continent, near Spark City. That's the territory of the Rolumond Sect, though. We can't help you much with that, so friend Rean would need to go alone," Samuel explained.

"Very well," Rean understood before spreading his Divine Sense. It only lasted a moment before he continued. "Alright, next one."

Samuel then looked at one of his elders, who understood the glance. That elder had been to the second place while Samuel hadn't, so it was better for him to explain. "Sorry to intervene, friend. I'll talk about the next one. It's called the Eversun Desert. The light never disappears, keeping the entire desert lit all year round. It's quite a dangerous place with many Transition Realm and even a few Void Tempering Realm Demon Beasts."

He continued. "I've been there in the past to collect some resources and almost lost my life. The Demon Beasts there are very territorial, and if you cause too much trouble, even their Void Tempering Realm experts will come out to deal with you. Of course, I don't expect any of those Demon Beasts to be any problem to someone as strong as you, friend."

Rean smiled in response. "Even deserts have to go through the night, so the weird part is that it never happens. Very well, that one is also worth checking. Where is it?"

"You can find this Desert in the North-Nortwest side of the Continent, near the Tranfin Tribes that control that part of the Continent. They use the desert as their training grounds, so they know that place the best," the elder explained.

Of course, just like Samuel, the elder also spent the new tens of minutes talking about everything he remembered from the Eversun Desert. Only then did he finish and look at Rean.

"Good," Rean returned his attention to Samuel. "And the last one?"

Samuel assumed the conversation again. "The last one is the safest, to be honest. The place is called Mirror Sea. That's because there isn't only one but two seas at the same time. One sea is on the ground while the other floats just a few meters above it. Even though they are close to each other, the Sea in the air doesn't touch the sea below it, so it looks like a mirrored reflection of each other; thus, the name."

"That is a different one for sure,' Rean nodded. "Why is it the safest?"

Samuel explained. "Because there aren't any high-level Sea Beasts living in either of the seas. You would find at most Stage Seven Demon Beasts, which aren't really worth mentioning for experts at our level, let alone someone like you, friend Rean."

"Other than that, nothing else really happens there," Samuel continued. "Anyone with enough strength can go through these two seas or travel in between them, no issues at all. They would easily make it to the other side. If not for this weird phenomenon that keeps these two seas separated somehow, this truly wouldn't be a place worth mentioning at all."

"And I guess you also have no idea why it happens, right?" Rean asked.

Samuel confirmed straight away. "Yes. As I mentioned, it isn't really dangerous, so our clan, as well as the other four powers, have searched it from top to bottom, trying to find the reason. In the end, we all came out empty-handed. We can't really figure out why it happens. Maybe it is some other natural treasure. Maybe it is a natural formation. Anything seems possible."

Rean was satisfied with the answers. "That's good enough."

*Zush!*

*Bzzzzzzz... crack, crack, bzzzzzzz...*

Suddenly, Kentucky appeared in the middle of the room, coming out of a Spatial Gate. On his beak, he held a Black Crystal that emanated Purple Lighting. "Rean, they were right. The Lightning Realm was truly created by a Natural Treasure. It's this thing here. Oh, and the Lightning Realm is no more. It began to dissipate as soon as I took it away."

Samuel and the elders were shocked by that vision. The power of Lightning coming from that black crystal struck fear even in the Transition Realm elders. Only those at the Void Tempering and Samueal, who were in the Initial Stage of Space-Bending, could resist the pressure without much trouble. Of course, they could still tell just how powerful the crystal was.

Rean grabbed the Black Crystal as if it were nothing, completely ignoring the Lightning running through his body. "Not too shabby."

Right after, he put it on the center of the table in the meeting hall. "Alright, this is your payment for the information."

And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
