Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 2378 How to Talk to Kafan

Essefy shook his head, though. "Believe it or not, it was indeed nothing but a coincidence. Of course, you can imagine my surprise when I heard you were looking for us. Not that I would tell you anything. After that, I stuck with you as it would be the perfect excuse to come back here. I just didn't expect you guys would truly find the entrance to the Essence Race City."

Rean didn't really know if he should trust those words or not, but even Roan couldn't see a lie in them. "I see... then I'm being just a little too paranoid."

Not long after, Joju's group returned to the room. "Master Huban, what do we do with these twins and divine bird?"

Huban looked at the twins' group for a moment. "What do you want to talk about first? Remember, those at my level can't intervene with anything, so don't think about asking any favors."

Rean wanted to ask about the Fragment of the Universe Foundation, obviously. However, seeing how impatient Roan looked, he stayed quiet and let Roan do the questions.

Sure enough, Roan didn't waste time. "Huban, how do you know my old master? Kafan is a Death Spirit from the other side. How could you have any interactions with him? Above all, you said he knew I came to this side and told you about it. How's that possible? Tell me, what is happening?"

Huban nodded, already expecting that much. "Do you remember when I said that there are other experts at the same level as me, those who are above the Peak of the Divinity Realm but not in the next Realm yet?" Roan nodded and waited for Huban to continue. "Kafan just so happens to be one of these experts. He is a Death Spirit who has lived longer than the time the Extinction Sphere appeared. Well, I am, too."

Huban continued. "Yet, Kafan was already at this level of mine even before the Extinction Sphere's events. Simply put, he had no need for cultivation anymore. To be honest, I think he even gave up trying to get into that Realm after so long. That said, it doesn't really matter whether he is on the other side where there is no Divine Energy or on this side. His cultivation won't change. So, as a Death Spirit himself, he stayed where the Death Spirits lived."

"But what about me?" Roan asked back. "You said he talked about me coming to this side. How did he even know it?"

"Hum..." Huban pondered a bit before continuing. "To be honest, I'm not too certain about it either. After all, he is your master, not mine. He just mentioned that a Death Spirit he highly regarded, Tera, was now on this side of the Universe. I didn't truly expect you to be here. If not for the type of Death Energy you emanate that is similar to the other Death Spirits from the other side, I wouldn't have even noticed."

Of course, Roan noticed something strange. "Alright, I can accept that you don't know much. However, there is one thing you must tell me. How did you get in contact with Kafan? If he told you about me coming to this side, then it hasn't been more than a few hundred years since you two talked to each other."

"Indeed, it has been a short time since we talked. In fact, we can talk right now if I want," said Huban.

"You can?!" Roan was taken aback. "Then do it! I want to hear everything from him!" Roan got a little agitated, which was nothing like him at all.

"I won't," Huban immediately threw cold water on Roan's intentions. "I can contact him now, but it costs me quite a lot. Also, the price is not something you can pay. It isn't something that Divine Stones can fix."

Roan narrowed his eyes. "What kind of cost is it? How can you be sure if you don't even tell me what it is?"

"Very well," Huban then explained. "I believe you already know the Space-Time Realm is where you start comprehending the Laws, right?" Roan nodded and waited for Huban to continue. "Once you fully comprehend a law, you can use it to enter the Divinity Realm."

"In the Divinity Realm, your cultivation level depends on two things. One, obviously, is Divine Origin Energy... Well, at least that's the case for your humanoid races. For my Essence Race, Essence Energy is what we use. Anyway, the second thing you need to be able to make breakthroughs is to fuse the laws."

"For example, the Laws of Fire have four sub-laws. First, the Laws of Ignition, then the Laws of Heat, following that, you have the Laws of Explosion, and finally, you finish with the Laws of Fire Essence. Once you have comprehended all these four types of Fire Laws, you can be said to have comprehended the Law of Fire and are ready to enter the Divinity Realm."

"In the Divinity Realm, you will have to fuse these four sub-laws of fire, ultimately achieving the Major Law of Fire. The same goes for any other law you use for your breakthroughs. They have their own sub-laws."

"Now then," Huban finally entered the main topic, "once you completely fused the sub-laws into the Major Law, you also reached the Peak of the Divinity Realm. That's where everyone gets stuck, waiting for their one chance to attempt to reach the next Realm."Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

"Once your chance arrives, and as I mentioned, you never know when it might happen, you can try to reach the next level. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who succeeded with it. Well, perhaps Hyeoumu, but none of us is certain if he is truly there or not. Nonetheless, even if you fail, you will at least reach the same level as me and the other guys."

"It is only when you reach our level, which is neither the previous nor the next realm, that you will connect yourself with the celestial laws," Huban explained. "And it is through these celestial laws that experts of our level can communicate, regardless of where they might be in this Universe, even if it is on the other half."
