Death… And Me

Naturally, Qia and Havek send many formations masters together with the arms. Space-Time Realm Cultivators, Demon Beasts, and Spirits followed them too. With that, towers and more towers of communication were erected as the arms advanced. By now, they had already numbered the hundreds of thousands.

Still, as they built more, the masters understood them better. Their range increased further and further, now reaching over a hundred thousand kilometers of coverage around them. The web of communication advanced inside the Devil\'s Continents without stopping.

Yet, even though the coverage of the towers increased, the same couldn\'t be said for the Communication Badges... Or Smartphones, as Rean liked to call them. One has to understand the towers were provided with energy to get that far. Unfortunately, the badges themselves had limitations on how far they could answer a call.

It wasn\'t all that bad as they could at least be used to pass information one-sided. If necessary, the leaders who received a message only had to approach a relay tower and use the badge to send information back.

What Qia and havek have been working on was exactly that, a way to increase the communication badge range of connection. For them, it simply wasn\'t good enough to just receive information if they were too far away from the tower. It had to be able to answer as long as it was within the tower\'s own capacity.

That was how Qia and Havek worked together to come up with what they call \'Signal Recycle.\' it took a long time to work this out since they were very busy putting the communication system deeper and deeper into the Devil\'s Territory. Still, the communication system was expanding fast, and one can imagine that it won\'t be long before it becomes the norm in the Realm of Gods. It\'s just that the humanoids, spirits, and demon beasts are making full use of it before any of their enemies think about doing the same.

Fay noticed Qia\'s reaction and quickly understood what it meant. "Did senior Havek succeed?"

Qia nodded. "Not him, us. You also helped a lot during the development of this new communication badge. Now the badges will be able to use the Divine Energy Signal that they receive from the tower, modify it for their own purpose, and send it back before losing its energy. It far surpasses the signal answer that the badges could achieve before."

Fay, Rean\'s daughter, was obviously happy to hear that. "Great! We need to make these news badges straight away."

Qia already expected that. "Don\'t worry. The facilities where the communication badges are being made have already done enough badges for the next few days. Havek and I will share a connection while we make the modifications on both sides."

"I\'ll help!" Fay obviously wanted to make part of it.

The Mother and Daughter then left while Qia passed the commanding position to another Formations Master in the room. As they flew to the factory, Qia couldn\'t help but speak, "I wonder if your father will be shocked by it."

Fay\'s expression immediately turned dark after hearing that. "Why do you even care about that man? Mother, you should just forget him. He left without saying anything and has been gone for all these years. It is obvious that he doesn\'t care about us."

Qia smiled but didn\'t answer. Qia and Calina knew the truth of the twins\' mission, but they also knew they couldn\'t let others know. Not only wouldn\'t it help anyone, it would instead put them in danger if they accidentally let the truth escape. Because of that, Fay came to hate Rean for disappearing like that. Even though Qia said that this was what she and Rean decided, Fay still didn\'t buy it. "Alright, he will be able to explain things to you on his own once he is back."

"Hmph!" Fay couldn\'t care less, though.

Suddenly, a man came flying from the Freedom Sect in the distance. Rean and Roan\'s Sect was still in the same place as they left the last time, as they were the only ones able to move it away. "Hey, Aunt Qia."

The man was none other than Roan\'s kid, Alen.

Back before the twins left the Dragon Race Territory, Rean and Roan disguised Fay and Alen so that they could leave without being noticed. The reason for that was their Nascent Soul Realm. To enter the Soul Transformation Realm, one had to first find their path. Otherwise, they would stay stuck forever in that realm.

Alen had always been a lazy guy up to that point, very much like Kentucky. But after they left, Fay, who was stronger and more diligent, had to protect him a few times during their travels. That was Roan\'s plan. He knew that although lazy, Alen also hated to look bad in front of women, even if it was his cousin. Alen was truly a copy of Kentucky.

Thanks to that, he began to put effort into his training as Fay was merciless. She totally humiliated him every time she had to save his ass. How could he accept that?

The second part of the plan, which was to help them find their own path, also worked. They both entered the Soul Transformation Realm in the end. With the resources given to them, they had another breakthrough, and the cousins were now in the Elemental Transformation Realm. It has been decades since the twins left, after all. 

Qia looked at Alen, seeing his excited expression. "What is it? Did something good happen?"

Alen quickly nodded. "The Soul Flames Father and Uncle Rean left behind reacted!"

"What!?" Qia was taken aback. "Great!"
