Chapter 2477 Different Direction

Roan was surprised to hear that. "And why are you only going out to take it now? You should have left as soon as you heard this guy had it! Since this Tree Core was from such a high-level Demon Plant, it truly has a very good chance of having a hint of Wood Laws inside."

"I wanted to," Rean said. "However, this is a Space-Time Expert taking part in the hunting of that so-called Soul Devil. He wasn't at the Center of the Realm of Gods to start with, nor could he come back anytime soon. I received his message only a few days ago that he should be passing through Ransvite City. Whether you were leaving or not, I would still leave in the next three days. Luan's sudden message only helped with it."

"Since that's the case, let's leave straight away," Roan quickly decided. "I'm not going to Ransvite, though. I'm going to the center of the Realm of Gods, but I'll head in the direction of the Spirit Races instead. He is waiting for me in Yunrel City, one of the continents bordering the Humanoid Races' Territory."

Rean didn't mind. Around an hour later, the Alchemist and Blacksmith Workshops were sent back into the Soul Gem Dimensional together with everyone. Only then did Rean and Roan leave that place, returning to the city they initially arrived while using a different appearance. Rean left behind the formation, as he intended to return to this place once their deals were done.

After paying the fees, Rean and Roan went back to the Center of the Realm of Gods. In the next Teleport Formation, Roan headed in the direction of the Spirits, while Rean went straight to the Ransvite.

However, when Rean arrived in Ransvite, he contacted the guy and found out he was still on his way and that he wouldn't arrive in the next two days at least. Because of that, Rean had an idea. It would be meaningless if only Roan and Celis's Pills were ready for consumption. Because their cultivations are linked, even if they understood the laws well enough to progress through the Space-Time Realm, they wouldn't be able to. After all, Rean wouldn't have reached that level of comprehension yet.

From Ransvite City, Rean decided to pay a visit to Flinyu, who was still in the same city as five years ago. The war hasn't progressed one bit until now as the Soul Devil continued to flee everywhere. But then again, the Devils also didn't counterattack as they didn't have the strength to do so. Instead, it looked more like they wanted to drag this war forever.

Rean knew why they were doing it, though. Everyone who knew about Hyeoumu's existence understood that too. The Continental Barriers are nothing but the release of extra energy from Hyeoumu. He did it to regulate his own body. He was paid to stop this discharge of energy, but he couldn't continue holding it forever. Sooner or later, he would start to discharge his energy, and the Continental Barriers would reappear.

Once that happened, moving the armies around would be extremely complicated. Not to mention that it would create countless openings for the Devils on the other side of each Continental Barrier to mess things up. As long as the Devils waited for the Continental Barriers to reappear, they wouldn't be forced back anymore. Sure, they couldn't retake the Temporal Path, but they wouldn't be wiped out from the Realm of Gods either. Besides, the seal of the Realm of Gods that prevented Divinity Realm experts of the Underworld from entering through other means also couldn't be held forever.

Rean couldn't help but sigh. 'Well, at the very least, a lot of the territory from the Devils was retaken, which means countless living beings won't have their souls extracted for the sake of the Devils' cultivation.' ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

Once Rean arrived at the main building, he used his communication badge to tell Flinyu he was there. Flinyu allowed him to enter a few minutes later.

Inside the man's office, Rean could tell that Flinyu looked quite tired. It wasn't physical tiredness, though. Instead, it was a mental one. No doubt, he had to deal with countless things during the past five years while his army couldn't move. "Hello, senior Flinyu, sorry for interrupting your work."

Flinyu just waved his hand impatiently. "There is no need for formalities. I have things to do, so make it short."

Rean nodded. "I need to pay a visit to Heavens. Would you be able to arrange a safe passage through the Temporal Path for me? Not now, though. I'll be going five years from now."

Flinyu narrowed his eyes. "We have just recovered the Temporal Path, but it was only our own entrance. The Heavens and Underworld Entrances are in the hands of the Angels and Devils, respectively. I can get you to traverse the Temporal Path and go to the Heavens. However, once you arrive at their entrance, you will have to deal with the angels yourself. Let me tell you in advance that the Angels seem to be very uneasy at the moment. That is because of some weird events in their Angel Realm from some years ago."

As expected, the Realm of Gods seems to have at least found out what happened in the Heavens. It's just that they didn't know Rean and Roan were the main cause of that. "It's fine, senior. I only need to be granted the passage without risks. As for the Heavens, we have our own contacts there."

Flinyu was sure that the entrance of the Angel Realm side was heavily guarded, so he wondered what kind of contact Rean had that could allow him to step into the Angel Realm without concerns. Of course, he didn't ask it. "Very well."

Right after, he passed Rean a blue token. "You can use this token when you get to the Temporal Path Entrance. As long as you show it, no one will stop you from going through."

Rean smiled as he looked at the token. 'Senior Kafan truly helped us a lot with his message. To think it would be this easy to get a free passage.' Rean then thanked Flinyu and left. He still had to complete his deal in Ransvite City.
