Death… And Me-Chapter 1871: It is Worth the Risk

Chapter 1871: It is Worth the Risk

Naturally, Rean's group was taken aback to hear that. "Wait, what?!"

[I can't go into details, but Rean's thoughts aren't completely wrong. The continental barriers weren't here at the start. As for why they came to be, that's something I don't know. Perhaps it really is some creature, although I find it hard to believe as well.]

Rean sighed in relief after that. "Phew... for a moment, I thought you were going to say that there really is some living being down there. However, you only know that the continental barriers were not here before, so I can accept that."

Though, Sister Orb added. [I didn't say that wasn't the case either.]

Rean nodded in response. "Fair enough."

After that, Rean looked back at Fluki and asked him, "Anyway, will there be anything capable of stopping you from passing through this continental barrier? I would rather go through this thing the same way as the previous ones."

Fluki shook his head, replying, "Not that I know. Shall we go?"

Rean and Luan nodded before Fluki put them into his mouth. Following that, he jumped inside the continental barrier, leaving the range of Rean's Light and Divine Sense bending skill. That obviously allowed the other Continental Barrier Spirits to see Fluki passing by.

Normally, none of them would try to talk with Fluki. It was normal to see these kinds of spirits passing, after all. However, this one was the continental barrier that separated the humanoid and spirit races. Things were different here.

Suddenly, Fluki heard someone else's voice. Or, to be more specific, another spirit. "Hey, you. Stop right there."

Well, although it wasn't normal for other spirits to try to talk with Fluki, it wasn't exactly impossible. Fluki was stopped before by other spirits, so he was used to it as well. "What is it? Could this side of the continental barrier be closed for Kibins?"

At the same time, he recognized the other race. 'Gleaming Eel Spirit, huh?' he thought. It was a very fitting name as the spirit did look like an eel, although it had its gleaming side due to the environment its race grew in.

One of the times Fluki was stopped was just because he was a member of the Kibin Spirit Race. Whatever the reason was, the spirits in that part of the continental barrier didn't allow Kibins to pass by. In the end, Fluki had to turn around and leave the continental barrier before Rean flew to another location where Fluki could finally pass.

The eel spirit immediately shook its head, replying, "Closed for Kibins? Why would I care about that? I'm stopping you because this is the division between the humanoid and spirit race territories. Don't you know that unallowed races are prohibited from staying in the Gods' Dividing Barrier?"

Fluki shook his head as well. "I didn't know. I came here from one of the normal continental barriers. I was born on the humanoid side and simply wished to look at the spirit races' territories. Why would a spirit prevent other spirits from entering? As far as I know, it isn't that uncommon for living beings to traverse the Gods' Dividing Barrier."

The eel narrowed its eyes, saying, "I don't know who told you that, but it's not that easy. The living beings that go into the spirit races' territories have permission to do so as a means of trading. They are usually followed by one of the permitted spirit races through the traversal to make sure everything goes well. As you can probably imagine, the Kibin Race is not one of these races, so you have to go back."

Fluki checked the guy's cultivation and could see that he was only in the Saint Realm. Yet, he didn't seem to be afraid of him even though Fluki has the same cultivation as Luan, the Middle Stage of Elemental Transformation. After taking a quick look around, Fluki understood that there were quite a few eyes on him, some probably with higher cultivation than his. "I see... sorry for causing you trouble, my friend. By the way, do you know a way for me to head to the spirit races' territories? It shouldn't be that hard since I'm also a spirit, right?"

The eel spirit nodded in satisfaction, seeing that Fluki understood the rules. From the looks of it, Fluki was far from being the only spirit the eel had seen trying to cross the Gods' Dividing Barrier. "That's good, then. If you want to enter the spirit races' territory, you'll need to go to one of the Traversal Cities. The humanoid continent you came from is Fluvali, so you should go to Ransvite City to get your authorization. Since you're a spirit yourself, it should be a pretty straightforward process for you as many spirits born on the humanoid side also try to go back. Just get out and then fly north. That city is located three regions away. As long as you follow the Gods' Dividing Barrier, you will definitely find it. Well, I would rather take teleport formations, though."

Fluki then talked a little more with the eel and then returned from where he came. After getting out of the barrier, Rean and Luan came out of his mouth.

Rean didn't mind what happened. "Well, they at least keep some level of protection between the territories. I guess our journey has been way too smooth so far, so it feels a lot more acceptable to be stopped."

It's just that Fluki had a problem. "If what he said is true, you'll also need one of those authorizations, right? It should be easy for me as a spirit. However, the story is different for you two. Or, at least, for Rean, since Luan can simply enter the Dimensional Realm during the traversal. Wouldn't the humanoid powers like the Rambram Sect specifically keep an eye on these cities?"

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. "It's fine. Even my body's internal structure is different at the moment, so it's impossible to recognize me. Since these traversal cities exist, then the authorization shouldn't be that hard to get."

"What if they recognize you?" Luan asked, concerned.

Rean smiled in response, replying, "Well, we are talking about the powerhouses of the humanoid races. If they really find out who I am, I can only comply and go with them. Don't worry. We ran away because we didn't want to be held back. They won't kill us. It's worth the risk."
