Death… And Me Chapter 654 - Does He Look Excited?

Chapter 654 - Does He Look Excited?

Laun sighed after that and didn't say anything else. It was obvious that his daughter was dead set on accompanying him in this journey. Besides, he had to admit that the Imperial Guardian's presence a moment ago eased his worries a little. At the very least, it didn't seem like Gian was a fraud.

Frandin then pa.s.sed another pill bottle to Xiria with many pills that kept the poison at bay. There was enough for months in a row that Roan prepared with his free time.

Following that, Frandin changed the topic as he asked.

"By the way, Senior Laun. Did you find any Yang Energy Lightning Cultivation Technique?"

At this point, Laun already didn't care that much as he nodded while replying.

"Yes, but we only we able to procure a single one."

Laun then threw a jade slip to Frandin, who just smiled and put that away.

"Thank you."

He was obviously very curious about the technique, but he had to keep up his play. Besides, he would need Rean and Roan's help to revise it with him.

"Alright. We'll be back in a few days. We still have a few things to deal with in the city before calling the Soul Rulers over. We'll let you know when the time comes."

Xiria nodded before accompanying him to the exit. Following that, Rean and Roan put everyone into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm before leaving the city. The auction would start soon, but they had enough time to try out their Soul Power. Rean also finished the weapons that he would sell there, so he decided to go with them.

Using Kentucky as a means of transportation and Rean to conceal him, they arrived at the nearest demon beast region a few hours later. Of course, they didn't stay at the border since only low-level Zasfins would pick fights there. Instead, they went straight to the Inner Region. Only there would they find Stage Three and Four Demon Beasts to train their Soul Power against.

Kentucky then landed on the snow in the middle of a forest before Rean came down. Following that, Roan and everyone else exited the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm.

"Alright. You all know what to do. Soul Power is basically like controlling the elements with Spiritual Energy. In fact, it makes controlling the elements easier. Not to mention that it increases its power. There will be no groups this time. Each one of you will move in a specific direction and spend the next three days fighting every demon beast you find."

Everyone understood why Roan was doing that. If they moved together, Calina, Agis, and everyone else would always have their minds set on the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. That would only hinder their progress and make them more p.r.o.ne to carelessness. This wasn't the first time Roan did that. Even when they separated into two different groups to travel, he also ordered everyone to split several times on the way.

The only exception in this was Frandin. After all, he was still in the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. This Inner Region would be way too hard for him, even with his quick improvement. That being said, he was the only one allowed to follow someone, and this someone was always Roan. Then again, that didn't make things easier for him. It's Roan we're talking about, after all. Frandin knew very well that unless an impossible-to-defeat enemy appeared in front of him, Roan would absolutely not intervene.

"We will meet at this point three days later. If you die, that's because you're just weak. However, let me give all of you a warning. We're quite close to Venasi City, so there's a possibility that you will b.u.mp into other Zasfins. After all, there are quite a decent amount of Core Formation and Core and Soul Fusion Realm Zasfins there. I have no doubt that a few of them will come here to train. If you do find one of them, try to stay away. We don't need more problems than we already have."

Everyone nodded, already expecting that.

After that, Rean added.

"Follow the usage of Soul Power that I mentioned in the routines Roan made for you all. Even if you're not battling, keep the Soul Power running at all times. As you know, I used my Light Element to a.n.a.lyze Soul Power. From its looks, Soul Power also uses special paths, just like meridians, to manifest itself outside. The more you use it, the bigger and smoother these paths become. When you combine it with dangerous situations, your improvement will be far greater."

Roan agreed with Rean as he listened. Now that he could use Soul Power, Rean knew how to apply Light Element to it. After all, Soul Power was the same as Spiritual Sense. Both of them only exist because there was life force. Dead things couldn't use it at all. It's just that Rean couldn't figure out how they were related since he didn't have it before.

With Rean and Roan working together, they had already reached a level of comprehension about Soul Power that surpa.s.sed most Zasfins. Well, they also had Sister Orb, who was also able to a.n.a.lyze it as well. With the Soul Gem System's support, they had an easier path.

"With that, I will announce your target. Malaka and Calina currently have 28 Soul PowerPoints. Agis has 26 while Qia has 27."

Roan then coldly smiled and continued.

"For your own good, I hope your Soul Power surpa.s.ses 40 points three days from now. Otherwise...hehe!"

Everyone felt a s.h.i.+ver on their backs, including Calina. She couldn't help but show puppy eyes before asking.

"Would you really punish your love?"

That only made Roan snort as he responded.

"Oh! That's right. Since you like me so much, that means you want to live up to my expectations. Very well. I hope your Soul Power goes over 45 during these next three days. Otherwise, your punishment will be twice as painful."

Sure enough, the love play backfired completely as Calina instantly took back her words.

"Wait, wait, wait! Sorry, I won't do that anymore. Let me have the same target as everyone, please!"

Roan glared at her before saying.

"Then, you better start running already."

Calina didn't even hesitate as she took flight and disappeared in the distance. As the only Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator in their group, she was the only one who could fly. Of course, that didn't count Kentucky, who was a bird.

"Hmph! If you think you can pull my leg because of my relations.h.i.+p with her, you better think twice. Since I'm willing to do that with Calina, trust me when I say I can do worse for all of you."

Agis and Qia immediately departed in different directions soon after. That guy was just too crazy when it came to training. If he said he could make it worse, then he definitely could.

Rean scratched the back of his head as he saw everyone flas.h.i.+ng away, asking.

"Is that really okay? Even though it's only a bit more than 10 points, that's still a 50% increase. I think three days is way too little. If it was Frandin, then it might be possible since he already has 343 points even without his Bloodline Mark."

Frandin, who was still there, didn't say anything.

Roan didn't seem to care as he replied.

"It's fine. In fact, I think the amount I asked for was too little. That's because they've just started on this path. Think of them as drivers. Which one you think would show bigger improvements? A new driver who just touched a car for the first time or an experienced driver who already knows most things?"

Rean's eyes lit up as he said soon after.

"I see...doesn't that mean Frandin's improvement at the moment will be slower than us?"

Roan then glanced at Frandin, who was trying to stay as inconspicuous as possible. He would have to follow Roan, so he did his best not to get on the demon's bad side.

"Hmph! That metaphor only works at the start. As long as they keep overcoming difficulties, their Soul Power will still increase at a steady pace. That being said, Frandin can definitely improve just as fast. After all, I'll make sure his battles will be very... difficult."

Rean couldn't help but place a hand on Frandin's shoulder as he said with immense sadness.

"It was a pleasure to have met you, brother."

Frandin was crying already. Frandin wanted to say that he wasn't dead yet, but he felt that he might be the next time everyone gathered here again.

Roan then ignored the s.h.i.+vering Zasfin as he looked at Rean and asked.

"By the way, I don't need to give you a target, right?"

Rean nodded as he responded.

"You and I can directly use my Light Element to help improve our Soul Power. Well, it's not like you don't know how much we've improved this month in the city. Let alone now that we're heading out for battle."

Frandin was taken aback as he asked.

"How come you didn't tell anyone about that?"

Rean shrugged his shoulders, answering Frandin's question.

"I didn't want to discourage everyone else. However, don't misunderstand it. We can use my Light Element to train our Soul Power, but it's still a far cry compared to how much it can improve in real dangerous situations. Even after a whole month of constantly using it, Roan and I could only increase our Soul Power by 22 points."

Frandin almost vomited blood! 22 points without having to battle at all! Back when Frandin was alone, an entire month of soul cultivation would be considered very good if he could increase it by 4 or 5 points, let alone 22! Only after suffering under the demon's hand(Roan) did his Soul Power cultivation speed explode. Since that's the case, just how much can these twins improve now that they were going to battle as well? After all, Roan was strict with everyone and twice as strict with himself. Rean, obviously, didn't want to lose to that guy, so he acted just as crazy.

"Are you two really humans?"

Rean laughed in response, saying.

"Perhaps not?"

Roan ignored that and began to walk away.

"That's enough. Frandin, let's go."

Frandin looked at Roan's back and couldn't help but ask Rean through a Spiritual Sense Message.

'Does he look a bit excited to you?'

Rean slightly nodded as he headed in another direction while responding.

'He does, right? I guess he's slightly happy...so you better be careful. I mean... really, really careful!'

Frandin gulped a bit of his saliva before unwillingly following Roan in the distance.
