BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2349 Finally Here
The contents of his message were basically the same as Kentucky's. He had to go to the Limigo Region, where the army was now gathered and waiting to start the next advance. However, the location of the gathering was a little odd. Although Limigo was indeed where the army was gathered, the point where he and Kentucky had to go was a few tens of thousands of kilometers away. It might look a lot, but in the Realm of Gods, such a distance usually wouldn't cover even the space between two nearby cities.
"Limigo, uh?" Rean murmured a bit.
Kentucky nodded. "That's convenient. Don't you want to gain merit points? This call to this further away point will probably give us the chance to accumulate more of those. It is probably some separate mission."
Essefy heard that on the side. "Oh, so you were called there too? I just happened to receive the same order. It is good if it is a separate objective. Other than just killing devils, such missions would often reward a good amount of Merit Points. How about we go there together?"
Rean and Kentucky looked at each other before nodding at Essefy. "Sure, the more, the better."
Their group quickly took flight and disappeared in the distance. On the way, Rean took the opportunity to start their investigation with Essefy. "You know, I've heard that the Devils' Territory was first dominated by the Essence Race. However, it was during a time when I wasn't even born yet. Have you ever seen one before, Essefy?"
Essefy looked at Rean with surprise. "Essence Race? Honestly, I feel like they are more like fairy tales than truth. I mean, how could a race with such a blessing for cultivation truly get wiped out? It is hard to believe, don't you think?"
Rean shook his head. "Not necessarily. From the information I got, the Essence Race was extremely rare. They didn't reproduce. Instead, they were born from the Essence Energy of Heaven and Earth in extremely specific conditions. Such conditions were so rare that they basically only happened on the Northeast Side of the Realm of Gods and close to the central area. At their peak, there were no more than a few million Essence Race members. Compared to the billions if not trillions of devils that said that, he couldn't help but remember Cryan, the Essence Crystal living being. 'Could Cryan be 11:18
considered an Essence Race being?' Rean wondered.
invaded their territory, individual strength truly wouldn't be of much help."
"Hum..." Essefy thought about Rean's words. "Perhaps you are right. Still, the Essence Race would have noticed at some point that they couldn't save their territory, right? Considering their power, how come at least their strongest experts didn't flee to the Humanoid, Demon Beast, or Spirit Race Territories? It is still kind of fishy."
Rean had to admit Essefy's words made sense. "Could it be that the same way they could only be born in this region of the Realm of Gods, they also couldn't leave it? I know a few races that are more or less bound to the area where they were born. If they left, chances are they couldn't survive."
"You might be right," Essefy agreed with Rean. "In any case, this is a matter of the past. What is the point in talking about it now?"
Rean smiled in response. "Could it be that you don't find it curious? I would love to meet an Essence Race member and experience their legendary power. Oh, don't get me wrong. I'm not some battle maniac or anything. I just wish I could exchange experience with them in any way possible." As Rean said that, he couldn't help but remember Cryan, the Essence Crystal living being. 'Could Cryan be considered an Essence Race being?' Rean wondered.
Essefy looked at Rean's expression. "Well, if you find one, let me know. I'm not as curious as you, but I think it would be interesting to meet one of them."
Rean nodded. "Sure. By the way, Essefy. I intend to find out more about the Essence Race while I'm here in the Devils' Territory. Well, I guess it is more correct to say that this is the Essence Race Territory instead. In any case, I don't mind paying for information, even if it is Merit Points. If you find anything or know anyone who has some information about them, let me know."
Essefy didn't mind. "Sure thing. If it is Merit Points, I'll even put in some extra effort. There are many ruins from the time the Essence Race existed. If I find anyone worth checking, I'll give you a call. Give me your badge number."
Rean quickly passed his number to Essefy. "Thanks."
Rean also took the chance to enter the communication system network. Other than the online market, there was also a separate system for the war. There, one could find pretty much any cultivator, demon beast, or spirit taking part in this event. Rean quickly left a request there, asking for any information regarding the Essence Race. Rean even added a huge reward in Rank Seven Divine Stones if anyone could tell him where to find a living member of the Essence Race.
After that, Rean did exactly the same thing in the Online Market. As for Roan's request for the materials for Celis's Earth Life Pill, there was still no answer. Rean then increased the price, stating that just the information of where to get such things would still be well rewarded.
A day later, Rean, Kentucky, and Essefy arrived at the location shown in their communication badge. There, another five figures seemed to be waiting for them.
One of them looked in their direction, faintly smiling. "They are finally here."
