Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1701 Separation

As Govin entered the office building, Timao looked at someone behind him. "Lin, I'll be putting you in this fight. You might still be in the Initial Stage of the Void Tempering Realm, but you can even fight average Late Stage ones."

Lin immediately nodded, saying, "Yes, master. It was all thanks to the help you gave me during the years. I was able to complete the test because of the strength I got so far. I'll finish this battle in a second."

Timao didn't break any rules. However, he did find someone who interested him while he was working in Trikas Continent's recruitment building, which ended up with him taking him as his personal disciple. With his own resources, he helped Lin cultivate from when he was still a Saint Realm cultivator.

Unfortunately, the rule that one could only enter Jhiod through the twelve tests was already in place when Timao found the guy. Even though it was a rule applied by his own clan's Sect Master, he couldn't break it himself. He had to wait until Lin cultivated to a high enough realm until he allowed the guy to take the test. With that said, Lin joined the Jhiod Sect fair and square, but he did owe it a lot to Timao's efforts.

Timao nodded in response. "I wouldn't expect anything less from a disciple of mine. Let's go. We need to register you and the others as well."

Rean found the badges used by the Jhiod Sect quite similar to his System Sect's badges. Well, similar in the part that it could be bound and only used by the sect members. It didn't have anything like the communication formation, information sharing, and any of the other perks. 'Not too bad, I guess...'

Eventually, everyone was allowed to pass through the barrier and enter the Jhiod Sect's headquarters. Govin then looked at everyone else other than Rean's group. "You can head to the Outer Sect. Just use that teleport formation over there. Once you get there, present your badge to the Outer Sect Office, and you will be assigned your own residence, tasks, clothes, resources, and everything else you need."

He looked at Rean right after, telling him, "Rean, you and your friends can come with me. We're heading straight to the arenas."

Roan wasn't very interested in that, though. He was pretty sure Rean wouldn't need anyone's help. "Is it okay if I went straight to the outer sect as well?"

Govin shook his head, telling Roan, "You guys are now part of the Yume Clan, so we have special residences for all of you. Of course, even though you're part of our clan, you will still be considered Outer Sect disciples." Govin then pointed at another teleport formation as he continued, "If you want to go to the residences of the outer sect in the Yume Clan's faction, you can take that teleport formation. As part of our faction, however, you will be entitled to much better residences, resources, and everything else. It's just that it won't reach the level of Inner Sect disciples."

Roan didn't waste time and immediately stepped on the formation mentioned by Govin. In Krikei, Lita, and Vrie's case, they knew that they wouldn't be able to follow Roan, so they went to the normal Outer Sect. Whatever the case, it was already a great thing that they joined the Outer Sect of the Jhiod Sect.

Celis, obviously, followed Roan. He wanted to go back to the Dimensional Realm to cultivate as soon as possible. As for Kentucky, he liked to have fun, so he decided to go with Rean.

Erla couldn't help but ask after that, "Senior Govin, can I bring my husband to the Yume Clan faction as well?"

Govin narrowed his eyes in response. Min and Habac were indeed part of Rean's group, but they didn't really have anything special to them. If anything, they might be weaker than those who usually took the tests but got lucky to be paired with Rean. "You can bring him, but he won't get any extra treatment like you, Rean, and Roan will. His resources, residence, access to formations, and things like that will be the same as other Outer Sect disciples. Of course, you can have him live with you if that's what you want. But the other things would still be at the normal Outer Sect level."

Min and Erla obviously didn't mind it. As long as they could stay together, that would be fine. Not to mention that Erla could share her own resources with Min if she wished to. "Thank you, Senior Govin."

Habac, on the other hand, just went to the normal Outer Sect teleport formation. "Well, Rean, this is where we part ways. I relied too much on you guys already, so I will carve my own path from now on. If I can't succeed even after joining the Jhiod Sect, then there's no one else to blame but myself. May we meet some other time." Before anyone could say anything, the teleport formation flashed with silver light before Habac disappeared.

Only Kentucky and Rean remained with Govin after that as the others decided to go back to their own places. Behind Govin's group, Timao also directed the new recruits that came from the Trikas Continent to the Outer Sect teleport formation, leaving only himself and Lin behind.

Seeing that Govin seemed to have chosen his fighter, Timao approached them. "So, shall we go?"

Govin nodded. "Sure..."

After they took the teleport formation, they arrived at the arenas of the Jhiod Sect. The area, as expected, was enormous, with hundreds of arenas protected by formations everywhere. It was possible to see many disciples of different cultivations fighting and sparing for many different reasons.

Rean quickly noticed that there weren't just disciples at the Transition Realm and above. There were many low-level ones as well. For example, he saw one side that seemed to have many kids watching two other kids at the Core Formation Realm fighting each other. It's just that there was a higher-level cultivator, although young, watching over them. "Those born in the Jhiod Sect, it seems..."
