Death… And Me Novel Chapter 215 - Decaying Roots

Chapter 215 - Decaying Roots

Old Worm simply nodded at him and looked back at Droman.

"He has a talent for alchemy. I'm not letting him go."

As always, Old Worm kept his words as short as Roan.

Rean was expecting that Droman to complain. However, Droman simply bowed in the end.

"I understand. In that case, I will do my best to teach Formations to Rean during the ti I'm at the sect."

Old Worm nodded, satisfied.

Still, Droman was curious about sothing.

"By the way, Elder Fauk. What brought you here?"

Droman knew the Old Worm was definitely not the type to eavesdrop on others' conversation.

"It's about the formations in my place. I need you to do so modifications for ."

Droman imdiately shook his head.

"There was no need for elder Fauk to co here. As long as you had sent the ssage, I would have dropped everything to help you with it."

Rean was quite surprised with the way Droman treated Elder Fauk. He is now a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator. Other than Mia, he should be the only one at this level in the sect at the mont. Still, he treated the other with extre respect. In fact, Rean felt like Droman even feared the man.

"I was close by, so I just used the chance to co. Anyway, I'm leaving now."

Old Worm then turned around and left.

Finally, Rean couldn't hold his curiosity anymore and asked Droman.

"Elder Droman, is Old Worm so kind of important figure in the sect? You conceded to him so easily that it was quite embarrassing."

Droman's mouth twitched.

'Can't you at least put it in a way that won't hurt soone's pride?'

"Ahem... Elder Fauk is indeed a very prominent figure between us elders. He is our best alchemist, after all."

Rean narrowed his eyes after hearing that. For so reason, he felt that it wasn't the only reason Droman treated him like that. Still, it was not his place to complain.

"Well, so be it. In that case, I won't be able to go out with you, Elder Droman. Anyway, there is no need to worry. I'm confident that I will be able to learn things well as long as you show

the correct path. Besides, there are other Formations Master in the Formations Hall. Although they aren't at your level, they can at least answer the questions of an apprentice like ."

Rean wasn't lying. During the ti Droman was out, he had asked the other more experienced Formations Masters for advice. After all, he had only started. Whatever questions appeared in his mind could already be answered by most of the Formations Masters present.

"I see. Very well, then. Let's continue with your training. First, show

one of the basic Lightning Type Formations. For example, try to make a Lightning Elent gathering one. It follows a similar concept to the Spiritual Energy Gathering. At the sa ti, you probably will use it a lot in the future. All the formations in the communication system use this kind, after all."

Rean nodded and imdiately began to work.

While Rean and Roan were occupied with their own things and cultivating, Elder Reliance had finally arrived at the Profund Abyss location.

"Sigh... because this shit is in another country, it took

this long to co here."

Elder Reliance looked at the enormous chasm that stretched for hundreds of kiloters. But what really caught one's attention was the yellow light covering the entire extent of it. That was the Formation that impeded anyone from entering. Only during the next Profound Abyss aperture will that Formation allow the cultivators to enter. Of course, anyone above the Core Formation Realm will not be able to participate.b

Suddenly, a shadow appeared beside Reliance. Right after, it began to leave the ground and take the form of a spider. Reliance smiled as he threw what seed to be a black stone to the shadow-like Demon Beast.

"Bilibili, be a good girl and bring so Decaying Roots to this old man, will you?"

That was none other than Elder Reliance's Obscure Spider that Mia ntioned. As for the na Reliance gave her... well... let's not enter into details.

The Obscure Spider happily finished the weird black stone and felt quite satisfied. It then hissed at Reliance as if acknowledging his order. Right after, it began to turn into a shadow once more so that it could enter the Profound Abyss. However, it was at this mont that soone appeared.

"Hey, the old man over there."

Reliance turned around just in ti to see three other cultivators staring at him. He imdiately found out that all three of them were at the Nascent Soul Realm, just like himself. Also, from the looks of their robes, they all ca from the sa sect. It's just that Reliance couldn't recognize which sect it was. Nevertheless, Reliance seed to not care the least bit.

"I'm busy, so be fast."

The newcors narrowed their eyes after hearing that. Still, their leader didn't lose his patience and spoke his mind.

"I'm Fabiak Turwin, an elder of the Flowing Magma Sect. I saw that you have one of the Profound Abyss Demon Beasts tad. The next opening will happen in a year, but there is a good chance that it will co together with the surge. We were struggling to get so Decaying Roots here. However, since you have one of those Demon Beasts that can enter and leave as they wish, why don't you help us get so?"

Reliance pondered a bit before saying.

"One thousand Rank Four Spirit Stones."

The elders of the Flowing Magma Sect were taken aback by that price.

"Are you taking us for fools? If I bring that many Rank Four Spirit Stones out, why would I even ask you? I just need to post an order, and soone will definitely co to deliver them to ."

He wasn't lying. Back when Reliance was talking with Mia, she had first offered him a bag with the sa Rank of Spirit Stones. However, she had only brought out one hundred of them. Still, Reliance comnted that in normal circumstances, he would definitely have accepted it. That shows just how rare and expensive those Rank Four Spirit Stones are.

Now, Reliance was asking for ten tis that value to get Decaying Roots for this group.

Well, the fact was that Reliance simply didn't like how they acted towards him. It was not a problem of number. Instead, it was because of his different skin color. Reliance was not soone from this side of the world. But because of so events in the past, he was brought to this place. The number of black n and won here is ridiculously low. Although Reliance got used to the weird looks after so many years, it didn't an he liked it.

"Since you can get it from others, stop bothering . I have no interest in poor people."

Reliance then turned around and completely ignored those Flowing Magma Sect mbers. However, it only made those elders even angrier.

"These shit foreigners really don't know their place. Just because there are no rules saying that they can't live here, they already think they own the place."

"Last warning, charcoal, you will get those Decaying Roots for us, or we can force you to do so. However, there will be no good end if you chose the second option."

Right after, the three of them surrounded Reliance to prevent him from escaping. Yet, Reliance didn't seem to be the least bit concerned with the number's disadvantage.

"I just found sothing very interesting so ti ago, so I'm in an excellent mood. That being said, I'll add a third option. If you take out everything you have and get your asses out of my sight in the next minute, I will let you live. I advise you to accept the third option since you won't like the results of any other one."

Fabiak finally lost his patience.

"Courting death!"

Fire Elent imdiately gathered around Fabiak, and he charged forward. As a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator with a Fire Elent Affinity, his Fire Control was already capable of making the surroundings burn to ashes without even touching anything. Fabiak looked like a miniature sun that was ready to blast Reliance to pieces.

The other two guys didn't even move. Instead, they just paid attention to prevent Reliance from escaping. After all, he is still in the sa Nascent Soul realm as them. However...

*Fuiiiii~~~*

Suddenly, Reliance whistled.

Fabiak ignored that and continued his attack, though. Still, just as he was about to strike Reliance, the ground below him opened. Right after, an enormous Dark Green Centipede ca out.

Fast! It was just too fast! Fabiak had no ti to dodge at all! Without another choice, he could only redirect the attack to the Centipede instead. Too bad, though. The Centipede completely ignored the scorching flas and swallowed the enemy whole!

It was then that a muffled explosion sound ca from the Centipede's body. It didn't stop there. A few more explosion sounds continued to co from there. Still, the Centipede seed to not care at all.

Finally, the sound stopped and suddenly.

*Burp~~~*

The Centipede burped. Just like that, a Nascent Soul cultivator beca a Demon Beast's al.

Reliance then looked at the other two guys before saying.

"So people really don't know how to grab opportunities."

The two guys looked at the Centipede with terrified expressions. The aura left by the Centipede was far above what they could deal with.

Suddenly, they heard a voice coming from that sa Centipede.

"Master, can I eat those two as well?"

Their expression went pale after hearing that.

"Run!"

They ignored everything and imdiately dashed away.

As for Reliance, he simply shook his head.

"No need, Lanlan. Leave so food for Jinjin and Zunzun as well."

A few monts later, Reliance heard another two screams from a distance and smiled.
