Death... and me

Chapter 1078 - Huring Sacred Land



"Don't take my word for granted, though," Rana said soon after. "As I've said before, my knowledge isn't great as I have never left the Yukirrom Region. There might be different continents that aren't divided by the Divine Barrier. Perhaps you might find out that some continents aren't even on the same plane. You must always remember one thing. The Realm of Gods is never too weird that it can't get weirder."

Rean immediately took the chance to ask after that, "Then, do you perhaps know in which direction the continents governed by the demon beasts are located?"

Rana shook her head. "Sorry, my knowledge doesn't go that far. I do know that there are closed continents solely dominated by humanoid races, just like how there are continents solely dominated by demon beasts. Of course, there must be continents dominated by spiritual races like my own as well. Your girls most likely are on the demon beast continents, considering what you told me. In any case, that's all I can tell."

Roan wasn't surprised by that. If anything, he was satisfied that Rana knew that much and didn't try to hold anything back. "Then, do you know where we can find this kind of information, Rana? Also, if the continents are closed, how do we traverse to the other side?"

"I guess the answers for both questions are in the same place," Rana replied. 

"What do you mean?" Naturally, that caught Rean and Roan's attention. 

Rana then explained, "To be honest, I'm not sure myself how you can head to the other side. However, there's a good chance you can find the answer in the Huring Sacred Land." Of course, Rana understood that Rean and Roan didn't know what that place was. "First, let's talk about our own closed continent, the Huring Continent. It's located in a very desolate corner of the Realm of Gods, and that could be said to be the reason that no specific races dominate it."

Rana continued, "Now then, as you can probably imagine, all the closed areas have their own controlling powers. At least that's the case for the continents I know about. As for our Huring Continent, that is obviously the Huring Sacred Land I just mentioned."

"At the moment, we're in the Yukirrom Region, which has seven countries. The number of countries inside each region varies a lot as they vary in size. Nevertheless, the regions themselves don't change. The Huring Closed Continent has a total of 349 regions, Yukirrom being just one of them."

"The Huring Sacred Land controls the entire Closed Continent, but they rarely meddle with the regions' affairs. You can say that they're there to protect the Huring Continent itself and not some specific regions. If there's a place where you can find your answers, that place is the Huring Sacred Land."

Rean and Roan nodded after that. Soon, Rean asked, "And where is it located?"

"It isn't too hard to find. Just head to the center of our Huring Continent, and you'll eventually arrive in the ten regions separated exclusively for the Huring Sacred Land's use. From there, you can basically ask any high-level cultivator. They will be able to tell you where the Sacred Land itself is located," Rana answered.

Rean couldn't help but ask, "Errr...you're pretty strong, right? Would you mind bringing us there?"

"Why would I do that?" Rana asked in response.

Rean felt like crying after that. "Well, to give your brothers a little help, you know? Like a good little sister?"

Rana laughed in response. "Hahaha! I'm old enough to be your ancestor." Seeing Rean's sad expression, she finally calmed down. "Alright, I'm joking. I wanted to help you, but I'm not in the right condition to do so."

Roan said soon after. "The injuries, right?"

Only then did Rean remember the thing about Ludio helping Rana before.

Rana nodded before explaining, "Indeed. I received some damage to my Spirit Core, and it's far from healed. I won't be able to leave Erqs Forest for several years ahead."

Rean immediately asked, "How about I try to heal you? I'm quite good at that."

Rana smiled at Rean in response. "Are you talking about your Light Element healing abilities?" Soon after, she raised her hand, quickly gathering a huge amount of Light Element in a single go. Even Rean's ability paled to Rana at the moment. "We already have an enormous difference in cultivation. If I can't heal myself, do you think you can?"

Rean scratched the back of his head. Indeed, his healing abilities were limited depending on the difference in cultivation. It already took an eternity to heal Darian's bloodline loss. Let alone someone like Rana, who was far above the Black Tortoise in cultivation. Last but not least, Rana herself could use a lot more Light Element than Rean. Even if she didn't have a skill properly made for healing like his, just that amount of Light Element alone should have a greater effect. Rana wasn't able to heal herself with that, so Rean was even less likely to achieve anything.

Roan then added, "Well, we could do with one of your Transition Realm fairies. If they can bring us there, it would help us a lot."

Rana shook her head once again. "Sorry, but I truly can't allow any of my strongest fairies to leave anytime soon. The reason for my injuries was a dispute with the Fairy Queen of the Furueru Region."

Roan found that strange to hear. "Weren't fairies a peaceful race? Or so I heard."

Rana nodded in response. "We are. However, that doesn't mean we won't fight back. In any case, this is the problem of my Yukirrom fairies, and I won't allow anyone who isn't a fairy to dip their feet into it. Just understand that I won't be able to help you much more than give information. But if you want my blessing so that you can carry a fairy with you, I can at least do that much. A low-level fairy like Sienna wouldn't be a problem for me.. That fairy could improve your luck."
