Chapter 2333 Next Steps
Even an existence like Hyeonmu didn't know about it, so how would they discover it? In the end, Roan simply shook his head and put that matter to the back of his head. "Forget it. Just the fact that we know where another five of them are is good enough."
"So... We have the Hustis Continent here in the Realm of G.o.ds. It's just that we have no idea where Hustis is located. We will need to go after some information," said Rean. "On the other hand, we have this member of the Essence Race..."
They knew about the Essence Race. Back when the Devil Race still hadn't conquered the Northeast side of the Realm of G.o.ds, the Essence Race was the power that lived there. However, during the war between the Essence Race and the Devil, they were pretty much wiped out.
From what they knew, the Essence Race was already an extremely rare race, just like Divine Demon Beasts. However, in the Demon Beast Territories, you still had countless numbers of normal Demon Beasts. Besides, there wasn't just a single Divine Demon Beast Race, but several of them.
The Essence Race was different. There was no such thing as normal or divine ones. There was only the Essence Race, and that was about it. Their numbers before the invasion of the Devils were around a few million of them. It might look like a huge number. However, considering that you could literally find quadrillions of Demon Beats, Humanoids, and Spirits in the Realm of G.o.ds, that number was pitifully low.
The other races that also lived in the Northeast were demon beasts, humanoids, and spirits. However, everyone there knew that the dominant power of that side was the Essence Race. In the same way that they were extremely rare, they were also extremely strong. There was no such thing as low-talented individuals. Every single member of the Essence Race had a talent that stood above any other race in the Realm of G.o.ds.
That's why it came as a shock when everyone discovered that they had lost to the Devils and had been wiped out. No one knew if there were still any members of the Essence Race alive, as no one had seen them anymore after the war. Many believed that not a single one remained.
Of course, with the information received from Hyeonmu, it was pretty obvious that there was still an Essence Race member alive, at the very least. They also heard from Hyeonmu that this member of the Essence Race lived in the old territory of his race, which meant the Devils' Territory in the Realm of G.o.ds.
"Even though we know about it, how will we even start looking for this guy?" Rean couldn't help but ask. "Fine, the Essence Race only lived on the Northeast side of the Realm of G.o.ds and close to the center of the Realm of G.o.ds at that. However, that is still an area ridiculously enormous."
Roan shook his head. "That's another thing we can only go and try to gather information."
"What about the Hustis Continent," Luan asked as well. "This one should be a lot easier to find."
However, Roan shook his head. "There is no need to go there now. You heard from Hyeonmu. Everyone overlooked the existence of this Fragment because the power it carried was much lower compared to the other Fragments. Its power is too low because of its size, being the smallest Fragment between all fourteen. How many years have already pa.s.sed? Since no one found it yet, no one will find it anytime soon. This is a safe Fragment we don't need to care about for now."
Rean understood what Roan meant. "You are afraid that the war against the Devil Race might force that Essence Race member out and then the Fragment he carries could be lost to others."
"Yes," Roan didn't deny it. "We might as well join the forces attacking the Devil Races and try to gather information while we are at it."
"But if we do that, we might be discovered," Kentucky was concerned. "We have been trying to avoid this war exactly because the top experts of the Realm of G.o.ds are there. All of them want to put their hands on us since we know about how to build the Communication System. At this moment, this is not a secret that the humanoids and demon beasts want to let escape. It is the main advantage of the forces conquering the Devil Race Territory."
Communication had always been paramount in a war, and the communication system put the Realm of G.o.ds' experts heads and shoulders above the Devils. Before the Devils were eliminated, no one wanted the system to be disclosed. That's why the two places where the core of the communication system was located were heavily guarded by Divinity Realm experts.
"There is also our leap in cultivation," Roan added. "If we are found out, and they see how much our cultivation advanced, they will definitely try everything to discover how we did it."
"I'm confident my body transformation skill can fool even Divinity Realm experts," Rean remarked. "Would that be enough?"
"The problem is our power," Roan answered. "We might be able to hide our cultivation from those with similar cultivation realms, but it is impossible against Divinity Realm experts. Besides, we aren't sure if Eagon disclosed our secret or not. If he did, then everyone would keep an eye out for experts at our level, especially unknown ones."
"Oh, that I'm sure he hasn't," Rean immediately discarded that possibility. "If Eagon had said anything, there was bound to have some information in the communication system. With my privileges, I would have found out. Eagon is definitely doing his best to stay hidden while he cultivates with Cryan's help. He probably won't appear again for a very, very long time."
Roan's eyes lit up. "In that case... joining the war efforts won't attract too much attention. Let's set our eyes on the war against the Devils then."
