Chapter 1220 - You Can Have Them

Roan faintly smiled when he heard that. "Oh! So we are dragging you, huh? Very well! Kentucky, go down. She wants to leave."
"Wait, wait, wait!" Liana immediately changed her choice of words. "I'm not being dragged along! I'm not being dragged along at all! I'm going with you out of my own volition, alright?!"
Rean still found that behavior of Liana weird. She had always acted so cold until she saw Kentucky. "Is this the real you, or do you only act like that in front of things you like?"
"This..." A rare redness appeared on Liana's face as she replied, "Acting cold is how I really am. I've never acted like this before. If not because of this beautiful Demon Bird, I wouldn't have gone out of my way. It's all your fault, so give him to me as an apology!"
"Dream on," Roan said without even thinking. "Anyways, you might give up on coming with us once you find out our destination. We're entering the core region of the Demising Catacombs to look for Life's Nemesis Rocks. You should be able to guess why I need it."
Liana immediately understood the danger she was getting into. Of course, she also understood why Roan needed those things. "The catalyst for breaking through to the Elemental Transformation Realm. However, you should really not go there right now. You guys are just too weak. Did you know that even Yin Ghosts as strong as those at the Transition Realm can be found there? Concealment techniques are useless as they can feel living beings' life force."
Roan nodded in response, saying, "We know. However, it'll be a lot more dangerous if I wait until I reach the peak of the Saint Realm. You saw how Gille wanted me so badly in the Sacred Land Recruitment, right? I'm going there right now exactly because he wouldn't think that I'm going into that place with this cultivation of mine."
"That's... a very bold move," Liana could not help but say.
Rean didn't seem too worried, though. "It's fine, it's fine! Although ghosts can also fly, they can't see us at the moment. They don't stay high in the skies if there's nothing there for them either. We can simply keep flying at a high altitude until we get to the core region. Then we can use the second detection method to find the Life's Nemesis Rocks before going down to gather them."
"Fly there?" Liana couldn't help but ask, "You do know that the Life's Nemesis Rocks can only be found inside the catacombs itself, right? You won't find a single one outside."
Rean's smile disappeared almost instantly. "Is that true?!"
Roan answered in Liana's place. "It is. So you're going there with me, and you didn't even know this much? We brought Kentucky so that we could reach the catacombs ahead of anyone else. However, we will have to press forward by foot once we're there."
Roan then looked at Liana one last time, warning her once more, "This is your last chance. You should give up right now while the ghosts below are weak. You can definitely make your way back to your country members on your own from here."
Liana shook her head after hearing that. She was too worried that Kentucky might die there. "I'm going. I'm still not giving up on getting Kentucky for myself. Who knows? Perhaps the two of you will die, and I can get him for myself." Liana then faintly smiled. "Perhaps I'll kill you two myself to guarantee that's going to happen."
Rean, Roan, and Kentucky immediately shook their heads in unison.
"You won't do it."
"You definitely won't do it."
"You definitely won't do it for sure."
Liana was taken aback by their words. Where exactly did all their confidence in her character come from? 'Is it truly just because I like this Demon Bird?'
"Ahem... by the way, how come you can talk, Kentucky? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Kentucky didn't answer, though. He left it for Rean and Roan to come up with some excuse.
Well, Rean simply used the same excuse he had been using up till now. "This thing about demon beasts not talking until the Transition Realm is not the same from where we came. We came from a place called Turin Region after being caught by a teleport formation trap. There, all demon beasts are able to talk after they reach Stage Six. However, we don't know where it's located from here."
That was general knowledge, and it was also used by Etherian since people in Lukimira Sect, and Cosec City had already accepted that. No one could confirm whether it was true or not since no one could tell which were all the regions in existence in the Realm of Gods. At the very least, no one in Huring Continent and the continents around could.
"Is there such a thing?" Liana couldn't tell if it was true or not, but she did hear something like that from her elders, who investigated the twins. "This is really annoying. I wish I was born there if I could have a demon beast like Kentucky at Stage Six."
Kentucky then asked something else, "By the way, I'm basically flying forward, following the flow of Yin Energy. I can only tell from which side Yin Energy concentration is higher. Am I heading in the right direction?"
Liana and Roan nodded simultaneously. They both had researched this place through the records in the Sacred Land. "You are. Just keep flying in this direction, and we will eventually arrive there. However..."
"However what?" Rean could not help but ask.
"The catacombs were created in a way that they change shape every time. Getting there is the easy part. However, once inside, we won't be able to tell right from left," Roan explained.
Liana agreed with Roan. "That's what I heard as well."
Kentucky then asked Liana something else. "It seems like you weren't heading there at first, right? Why did you come to the Demising Catacombs?"
Liana didn't see anything wrong in telling the truth. "Mission Hall tasks. There were many tasks there that involved the Demising Catacombs. In my case, I came to look for Yin Flowers. They're both good for my cultivation and to exchange for Merit Points in the Mission Hall, as I mentioned. It's just that you don't need to head to the catacombs to get them."
Rean nodded after hearing that.. "Well, if we find any there, you can have them."
