Death... and me

1444 Only Elemental Transformation Realm Cultivators(Chapter preview)

With that, the twins were guided to another room, where they joined many other cultivators. Though, the twins weren't the only ones at the Elemental Transformation Realm wanting to leave the city. Although not as common, there were also those who didn't want to go to the Under Desert Sea but needed to leave the city. Of course, there were those at the twins' level or even lower who still wanted to risk entering the Under Desert Sea regardless of the dangers it had.

The twins quickly noticed quite a few Soul Transformation and Saint Realm cultivators in the mix as well. Those at the Elemental Transformation Realm made up quite a few. However, half of the people in the room were at the Transition Realm at the very least.

Once again, the twins had to enter a queue and wait for their chance to take the test. The test was very simple, though. Based on one's cultivation, a formation would fortify a dummy that was placed inside. The cultivators had one chance to strike the puppet with whatever skill they had. The only rule was that the dummy should be destroyed within three seconds. That's all.

There was a limit to how much damage the dummy could resist when its settings were at max defense level. That was a limit where Transition Realm cultivators should be able to pass. Simply put, this was a test made to stop those with low cultivation, not the high-level ones.

However, what caught the twins' attention was that the cultivators who seemed to pass the test all gathered in an empty space of the room. Rean then called the guy in front of him and asked, "Sorry for disturbing you, friend. Would you mind telling me what they're doing there? Is there another test after this one?"

The guy didn't seem very willing to talk. But since Rean was quite polite, he decided to answer in the end. "Everyone who passes the test will try to form a group to enter the Under Desert Sea. After all, there's strength in numbers. That happens mostly with cultivators at the Elemental Transformation Realm and below, though."

Rean nodded. "I see... does that mean they know the route through the Under Desert Sea?"

"Who knows? Some of them say they do, but in fact, they just don't want to enter alone. Once far inside the Under Desert Sea, their companions won't think about dealing with the liar since they need his strength. Of course, there are those who genuinely got information about paths in the Under Desert Sea. Whether you can find someone like that or not, that's up to your luck," the guy explained.

Rean then thanked him before looking at Roan. "What do you think? It would be better if we at least know where we're going, no?"

Roan narrowed his eyes, saying, "The guy ahead didn't tell everything. There are those who know the real routes, and there are those who pretend to. However, there are also those who want to rob others and use their knowledge of the 'Under Desert Sea' to lure their victims. In fact, the third type is probably most likely."

Rean had to admit Roan was right. "That's true. However, we have you, so our chances of falling for a trap are smaller."

"Next!" Suddenly, Rean heard the worker calling his attention. It was his time to try to destroy the dummy.

As Rean walked forward, he continued to talk, asking, "You're basically a lie detector, don't you think?"

*Bang!*

*Shatter!*

Rean simply threw a punch covered in Light Element, which obliterated the dummy into countless pieces. Some people even had to use their Divine Energy barrier to stop the shrapnel from injuring them. Rean didn't seem concerned with that as he made his way back. "Let's give it a try."

Roan was obviously behind Rean, so he was the next one. "We'll see. Let's talk with the groups there. Perhaps we can find someone genuine."

*Bang!*

*Shatter!*

Just like Rean, Roan tore the dummy apart with one punch. "The only doubt is whether someone who really knows the routes would accept people at our cultivation level. Don't forget about the Transition Realm limit that we heard about."

Little did they know, but all eyes were focused on them as many shocked expressions came out. Everyone had to use their best skills to barely destroy their dummies. However, Rean and Roan made it look so easy that some wondered if the dummies were broken. Of course, no such thing happened. The twins' real power was at the Initial Stage of the Void Tempering Realm. A dummy made to test the strength of an average Transition Realm cultivator was obviously fated to be pulverized.

The worker's shocked expression didn't last long before he quickly passed the tokens to Rean and Roan. "Here you go. You can leave the city anytime you want."

The twins nodded and made their way to the area where the people were trying to form groups.

"Hey, wanna join my group?" Suddenly, a man who looked to be in his early thirties called the twins' attention.

However, he wasn't the only one.

"No, come join us. Our leader knows the path to Pol Continent."

"Bullshit! Don't believe these guys. They're only trying to lure you into a trap. Come with my group. I can guarantee that the path my clan researched will deliver us close to one of the blind spots on the Pol Continent."

"Your ass! I've never entered the Under Desert Sea before. How come you know if I'm preparing a trap or not? Why aren't we so sure that perhaps it is your group who want to deal with these guys?"

"What did you say?!"

"Hey, brothers. Forget those two idiots. Join my group. We even have one Void Tempering Realm cultivator at the Initial Stage."

Rean and Roan looked at each other, confused. How come so many groups with high cultivation decided to take them in? "We're only Elemental Transformation Realm cultivators, though."
