Death… And Me Chapter 1229: Looking For

Chapter 1229: Looking For

"Impossible! Simply impossible! How did you do that?!" Liana was losing her mind already.

Roan looked at Liana, puzzled. "Why would it be impossible? Someone had to create this skill before, right? That means it can be done as long as you understand the trick behind it. All I did was try several combinations until I found the breaking point between the energies."

Rean agreed with Roan as he told Liana, "You must understand that Roan and I already have our own cloning techniques. Not only that, but we also have a way of making them explode by making the Light and Dark Elements go chaotic. Simply put, he already had an idea as to how he'd make it work."

Rean then looked at Roan after that, asking him, "By the way, this freezing explosion is a lot more powerful than the explosion generated by our clones, don't you think?"

"That's to be expected," Roan said in response. "Our clones were not made to be used as bombs to start with. Instead, they're there to fight together with us. With that being said, we use a lot less energy in them than I used in this freezing explosion."

"Does that mean we can just pour a lot of energy into our clones and make them explode with the same power as well?" Rean asked.

Roan shook his head as he took out a few Divine Stones to recover the Divine Energy he used in the Yin Clone. "That's not that simple. Our clones are better used as helpers, not bombs. As I mentioned before, I can't create more than two or at most three of these Yin Clones. If we tried to do the same thing with our Mirage a.s.sault, we would spend way more energy as we need both elements to be balanced. That's definitely not worth the effort."

Rean pondered over it a bit and added, "Then, I have an idea. Usually, when our clones get hit, they simply disappear as their energy disperses. How about we make them in a way that they would explode instead? At least they won't disappear in vain."

Roan shook his head once more, telling him, "Did you forget what we need to make them explode? We need the Light and Dark Element to reject each other, to become chaotic. We won't be able to control the clones well if we create them in that manner."

"I see..." Rean had to admit Roan was right. "That's slightly disappointing. Well, at least you can use this strategy with Liana's Yin Clone."

Roan nodded. "That's because I'm the one creating it alone. Also, the clone was created with the explosion in mind. It's different from ours. Besides, things like that are used in desperate situations and are very unreliable. Didn't you see how she ended up? She couldn't move a finger after using her clone. This technique is too flawed."

Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, "Well, not so flawed that someone like you can't use it, right?"

Roan didn't deny that. "I do have a good way of using it. But then again, that's because I'm different from Liana. I won't run out of Divine Energy if I create just one clone. With that said, it's okay if I do it, but definitely not in her case."

Liana bitterly smiled after hearing that. Her own skill was being used by Roan, and it turns out it was a good thing for him but bad for herself. Isn't that disheartening? "Th-that's because my cultivation is too low. Once I increase my cultivation, the amount of Divine Energy I have will increase as well. At that time, I will be able to use one Yin Clone without becoming helpless right after."

Roan looked at Liana as if he was looking at an idiot. "If you already knew that, why did you use it in the first place? In the end, you just wanted to show off."

"I..." Liana received a lethal hit just now.

Roan ignored, turned around, and began to make his way further. "Kentucky, can you feel more Golden-level materials?" He wasn't in the mood to rebuke the girl anymore.

"Uh-uh! Yes, I can. In fact, I believe you can as well, right?" Kentucky said in response.

Roan nodded, surprised. "So that's how it is, huh?"

Rean understood what Roan meant, thanks to their connection. "So the Life's Nemesis Rocks' Dark Element is so concentrated that you can feel its presence from far away as well."

"Yes," Roan confirmed. "Still, it isn't as good as Kentucky's Ore Detection Ability. I can only barely feel it while Kentucky had been guiding us in its direction since a while ago."

"But of course! I'm that amazing!" Kentucky didn't feel any shame at all to say that. Well, it wasn't a lie. Kentucky could indeed feel Golden-level materials from further away than Roan can feel concentrated Dark Element and Yin Energy. "However... there's something else."

The twins and Liana looked at him. They couldn't feel anything else. "What is it?"

Kentucky pondered in silence for a bit before saying, "It's also an ore or some metal that has been refined already. However, it feels like it's much more... pure... than anything else I've felt before. In fact, I can feel another one from the side we came, but it's very, very far away. Also..." Kentucky couldn't help but drool. "It feels like it will be extremely tasty, much tastier than any of the other ones I've been eating so far."

Rean's eyes lit up when he heard that. "Really?! You had never felt the presence of any ore above Golden High-level. I believe your senses improved after you entered Stage Seven. Most likely, those are Golden Peak-level ores or refined metals."

Roan didn't care about that. "Alright, you can get that if we pa.s.s close by. For now, let's focus on my Life's Nemesis Rocks."

Liana didn't know much about the blacksmithing job, so she didn't mind it either. All she could do was try to remember Roan's words to not make the same mistake again. "I hope I can find the Yin Flowers as well."

"Oh. That?" Roan then pointed at the very end of the corridor they were walking through. It was very hard to see, but there were some blue spots of light emanating from there. "I think those are the flowers you're looking for."
