Death... and me

Blansin tried to retaliate, but Rean was obviously much faster. Sure, Blansin was able to fight those above his level with his talent and resources. However, he was still not Rean's match.

'Death Style, Fist Energy Form, Shadow Bind!'

Rean's hair changed into a mix of black and white as Dark Element gathered and restrained Blansin.

Of course, Blansin immediately used his full strength to try and free himself. It's just that such an action was too late. In saying that, Rean appeared right in front of him as his sword came against Blansin's head.

*Bang!*

However, Rean didn't cut Blansin's head at all. Instead, he hit his head with the side of his Black Star. It's just that with Rean's raw strength, Blansin lost consciousness straight away. And just like that, Rean had Blansin in his hands.

As for Min, he went straight to Erla, who was still too weak to move. "Erla! Are you okay?!"

Erla, who didn't have the strength to even return to her human form, could only glance at Min and use Divine Sense to talk. 'I-I'm... fine... just tired as hell...'

Rean then touched Blansin's body before sealing the guy's demon core. If Rean wished it, he could have Blansin lose his cultivation forever at any moment. Not to mention that Blansin wouldn't have access to it unless Rean allowed him to do so. "Well, I'm done with this one. Let's that a look at the fish out of water."

'Life Style, Second Form, Instant Recovery!'

Rean's Light Element entered Erla's body, quickly healing any injuries she might have... which there were surprisingly none of. "Hoh? She isn't injured, it seems."

"She isn't?" Min asked in concern.

Rean nodded in response, saying, "Yeap. Her bodily functions are all fine. However, she's still being restrained by this thing. Of course, she's also too exhausted to do anything else, even if she wasn't restrained. Not to mention that the gravity of this Pressure Realm definitely isn't helping." Rean then showed the item Blansin used to lock Erla down. "Do you have any idea what this is?"

Min took it from Rean but shook his head in response. "No. In any case, let's just destroy it." Rean didn't mind as Min used his Divine Energy to crush the item.

Erla immediately felt the energy holding her body in place disappear before she could finally relax. 'Thank you, Rean, Min. I truly thought everything was over.'

Rean laughed in response, telling her, "Hahaha! It's nothing, it's nothing. In fact, you weren't at risk at all. Min and I have been observing you two from afar and were ready to take action at any point. It's just that I had to hold Min down until Blansin spilled the beans as to why he captured you. Otherwise, this guy would have jumped in a long time ago."

Min didn't regret it. "Hmph! He was trying to hurt my Erla. Regardless of the reason, I would definitely step in." However... "However, I admit that waiting was the best thing. Now we have a good picture of the whole situation and have Blansin in our hands."

Rean nodded in agreement. "The time limit for this test is the entire month the spatial gate is open. We have plenty of time here, so let's sit down and wait for Erla to recover her energy and for Blansin to wake up. I believe you two still have a lot more things to ask him."

Erla then glanced at Rean with her eyes, asking, 'Rean, aren't you interested in my powers?'

Min's eyes changed as he immediately looked at Rean.

Surprisingly, Rean nodded straight away. "Of course! A heart that can control an entire sea? How cool is that?! I very much wish to take it and refine it into the treasure Blansin mentioned."

Seeing the dark expression on Min's face, Rean laughed once again as he continued, "Hahaha! Unfortunately, I consider relationships a lot more important than any treasure in the Realm of Gods. Besides, Erla's heart would be 100% useless for me."

Erla pondered over it for a bit before understanding. 'My heart's power can only be used in Clendes Sea. If you don't decide to go to Terces Continent and live there, its power will be pretty much useless.'

Rean nodded in response. "Yep. That's pretty much it. Well, even if I did go to Terces Continent, I still wouldn't take your heart away from you. As to whether you believe my words or not, that's up to you."

Min narrowed his eyes, muttering, "Says the guy who attacked us the first time we met..."

Rean almost fell to the ground after that. "Ahem... I was just showcasing my amazing healing abilities. Yep, that was all. I wasn't doing it for fun at all. Definitely!"

Rean then came up with some excuse and immediately left to set up a simple concealing formation. The area was already well concealed, but there was nothing wrong with extra protection. At the same time, he shared the things he discovered with Roan, who was obviously in the middle of the same test. 'And that's about it.'

Roan couldn't help but sigh in response. 'Sure enough, without Destiny Avoidance Mode active, all kinds of crazy and continent-changing issues fall on our hands. What will be next? Something that will change the entire Realm of Gods? I don't know if I even want to see it.'

'Well, we do have to gather the fragments of the universe's foundation. In a certain way, we're already doing something that will affect the entire Realm of Gods,' Rean mentioned.

'That's true.' Roan had to agree with Rean on that. 'So, what do you intend to do with that White Scaled Carp. Or should I call it a Blue Scaled Carp now?'

Rean shrugged his shoulders in response. 'I'll just wait and ask Blansin a few more questions. In the end, we have no intention of heading to Terces anyway. Not to mention we wouldn't take her heart, so if we wanted to use it somehow, we would have to wait for the day she can truly control it properly.'

Roan nodded, saying, 'It's good that you know. I'm going to focus on passing this test, so you do whatever you want.'
