Death... and me

Carion then explained, "The Under Desert Sea is located several kilometers underground. There's no such thing as a direct passage there, except for the ones where you'll find guards protecting. However, that doesn't mean we have to take one of those passages. We can literally dig our way down and connect to the Under Desert Sea."

Rean couldn't help but ask, "If it's that easy, wouldn't anyone from Pol Continent also be able to enter Treavin?"

Carion nodded, saying, "And why do you think there are so many items from the Pol Continent for sale in Artos City? People from our Treavin Continent who can head to Pol Continent most likely will never come back. With that being said, it has to be the people and demon beasts from the Pol Continent that brought them here. Treavin and Pol constantly do trades, exchanging materials that can only be found in each other's continent. However, the ones who bring the good stuff are the Pol Continent's forces. Our Treavin Continent doesn't go to their side at all."

Roan nodded after hearing that. "That makes sense. The Under Desert Sea is supposed to be very dangerous due to the demon beasts and what else may lurk there. However, if the aquatic demon beasts at the Transition Realm and above are the ones coming here, then they don't need to worry about the demon beasts in the Under Desert Sea. On the other hand, any cultivator or demon beast from Treavin would definitely be attacked if they bump into any aggressive demon beast in that place."

Carion was surprised Roan understood it so quickly. "He is correct."

Rean still found it suspicious. "But if the Pol Continent's aquatic demon beasts can head to our side this easily, isn't it a bad thing for Treavin?" However, Rean immediately understood the problem. "Oh! Forget it. To invade the continent, billions of aquatic demon beasts would be necessary, maybe trillions even. There's no way a force of this size would pass undetected. Since it's just small forces bringing items to trade, then the Treavin Continent's experts overseeing the under Desert Sea don't pay much attention."

"That's also correct," Carion said. "Now then, our point of digging will be 2459 kilometers from here, on the top side of the extension of the Under Desert Sea. The Under Desert Sea in that area has very few demon beasts, and they're mostly at Stage Six or Seven if we are unlucky. This can already help us save some time since such demon beasts won't be a treat to our group."

Kentucky didn't need to hear it twice. "Well then, let's go."

"Wait." Briget stopped Kentucky. "What Carion said is true, but we aren't the only ones who know that. You must understand that Treavin Continent doesn't want to keep losing its fighting power, even if the numbers are extremely small. Over time, it can become an issue. With that said, the area my brother told you about is constantly under the watch of cultivators at the Void Tempering Realm and above who patrol the area."

Roan narrowed his eyes. "Would that make it worse than digging another point, then? If we do meet stronger aquatic demon beasts, they will be mostly unintelligent ones. If we fall into the hands of those at the Void Tempering Realm and above, then things will be a lot worse."

Well, Roan knew that Rean could use his Light and Divine Sense bending skill. The range of spatial detection was many, many times smaller than Divine Senses, after all. Those guys at the Void Tempering Realm and above would definitely be relying a lot more on Divine Sense. As long as Kentucky flew very high and Rean kept the skills active, there shouldn't be much of a problem unless they were very unlucky. However, Carion didn't know about Rean's abilities, so Roan wanted to hear what was his plans first.

Carion nodded. "That would be the case if we didn't know the patrolling routes. Trust me when I say this piece of information had cost me a huge sum. However, I can guarantee that it's genuine. With this, we can avoid the Divine Senses of the cultivators watching that region and start our digging."

Roan obviously wouldn't just trust it because Carion said that. However, it was still better than nothing. "Very well, just show the way. Also, Rean will board your Purple Lightning Eagle."

Rean nodded as he knew what Roan wanted. "Indeed, that would be the best."

Rean then jumped on Carion and Briget's Demon Bird, much to their surprise and suspicion. They had just met each other, so the siblings also didn't trust the twins that much. "What are you trying to do?"

Rean smiled and pointed in Kentucky's direction. "Just watch."

Suddenly, Kentucky's form began to disappear until, finally, only the sound of Kentucky's flapping wings remained. "This... what kind of ability is that?" Briget asked. If not because she could still see Kentucky's group with her Divine Sense, she wouldn't believe they were there at all. In fact, her Divine Sense wouldn't see anything either if she was much further away. But since Carion and Briget were flying beside Kentucky, their Divine Sense was too strong for the Divine Sense bending skill to work.

"It's a concealment ability. The reason I came here was to do the same thing." As soon as Rean finished his words, Light Element gathered around him before it spread around the group on the Purple Lightning Eagle.

The strange thing was that Carion and Briget didn't see anything changing. "We're still visible. Did you do something?"

Rean laughed in response. "Hahaha! You're wrong. You can see each other because you're within my skill range. Anyone outside won't see even a trace of your existence nor the eagle. If you don't believe me, one of you can jump on Kentucky and try to look back."

Briget couldn't hold her curiosity and did what Rean mentioned. Sure enough, as soon as she left Rean's range, the Purple Lightning Eagle and her brother disappeared from her sight. "Impressive."
