Death… And Me-Chapter 33 - The Truth... Partially

Usually, when a kid starts to cultivate, they would keep their Spirit Stones until they reach the peak of the Body Transformation Realm. Few of them would use Spirit Stones before that since you will need a lot of Spiritual Energy to create your first dantian. That is what is happening precisely with Rean and Roan at the moment.

Of course, there is an enormous difference. Rean and Roan were almost at the peak of the Body Transformation Realm to start with. Because of that, they did not have enough time to accumulate the Spirit Stones. Thanks to that, they were forced into this situation. The worst part is that the Soul Gem System initiated the Breakthrough on its own!

That's correct, a breakthrough is usually initiated by the cultivator. Rean and Roan were planning to first pay the Spirit Stones and then get a few more before going ahead with the Dantian Construction. With no other choice, both of them had to concentrate on the Dantian Formation Process. After all, since the system only forced its initiation, it was up to Rean and Roan to build it.

If not for the sight of the Dantians and Meridians appearing through Rean and Roan's bodies, Alanda would definitely be fuming now. It was evident that the Twins didn't have enough Spirit Stones for the Breakthrough, so they were basically forcing his hand into getting even more for them. Still, Alanda couldn't confirm if it was on purpose or not, so he greeted his teeth once more and brought out another hundred!

Rean and Roan noticed that and couldn't help but feel thankful to Alanda. They are really helpless at the moment. Everything was going in a direction that they haven't planned before.

To say that the Soul Gem System wasn't doing anything wouldn't be entirely correct either. The system was responsible for the change in Rean and Roan's Dantians.

A normal Dantian would usually be pale golden. The further you went into the Energy Gathering Realm, the stronger the golden color becomes. Only when one advances to the Foundation Establishment realm will the lack of luster disappear and the Dantian become fully golden.

Obviously, Rean and Roan's Dantians are completely different. One was Pure White, while the other was Pure Black. Alanda had never heard anything about different Dantians Colors. Of course, he had never heard anything about Black and White Aptitudes, nor a 104th meridian. The twins were simply a mystery!

[Yin and Yang Dantians Process: 35%, 53%, 74%, 91%, 100%]

[Dantians Formed Successfully.]

Finally, Rean and Roan let out a sigh of relief. But just as they were about to get up and thank Alanda, the system called them out again.

[Energy Gathering Realm Achieved.]

[Updating Reward List...]

[Update Completed.]

[Soul Gem Dimension is Now Open For The Hosts.]

Suddenly, Rean and Roan felt like some information was poured into their minds.

"Soul Gem Dimension? Is there such a thing?"

The Twins looked at each other and were shocked. Everything that happened so far went against all they knew. Still, Alanda was right in front of them, so they would need to care about it later.

"Tribe Vice Leader, thank you."

Alanda finally came back to himself.

"Alright, you two will come with me to the Tribe Leader's House."

Rean and Roan grimaced and then followed Alanda. Before getting there, Alanda didn't ask any questions. Finally, they arrived at Juri's living room. Not long after, Juri appeared on the other side and called them over.

"Come with me, this is not the place for us to talk."

After passing a few doors, they arrived at a room that looked like made of entirely of stone. The twins followed Juri and Alanda inside before the door closing behind them.

"Alright. Alanda, tell me what happened. For you to ask to bring them into my cultivation room, it must be something really important."

Alanda nodded.

"It goes like this..."

As Alanda explained what happened, the more surprised Juri's face became. In the end, Juri's surprised expression changed into one of shook! He looked at Rean and Roan as if they were some kind of monsters.

"Just what are the two of you? And don't come up with an excuse. I know very well that you are anything but Kids."

Rean and Roan pondered how they should explain this. It would be hard to believe that they came from another Universe. First of all, do Alanda and Juri even know what the Universe is? They had no idea!

"I guess I have no choice other than explaining from the start."

Rean then explained that they were indeed not Kids. Of course, Alanda and Juri already suspected it since a long time ago. It's just that they had never touched this topic.

Rean then said that they reincarnated without losing their memories, which greatly affect Alanda and Juri.

"I know about Reincarnation. There are legends saying that when a cultivator achieves a high enough realm, they will be able to brand their souls to prevent the loss of memories. Of course, I have never seen or heard about anyone who did it. Does it mean that the two of you were strong cultivators before?" ｂｅ𝚍𝚗𝚘ｖｅ𝚕．ｃ𝚘𝚖

Rean and Roan immediately shook their heads.

"I don't know about Roan, but I was nothing more than an ordinary human with no cultivation what so ever."

Roan pondered a bit and added.

"My story?is a lot more complicated than Rean, but I was no cultivator either. First of all, in our previous life, this thing that you call Spiritual Energy didn't even exist."

If the fact that Rean and Roan are reincarnations was shocking enough, hearing that their previous world didn't even have Spiritual Energy left Alanda and Juri dumbfounded!

Rean then continued.

"Anyway, we went through the Reincarnation Path without losing our memories. We reached this place by mere coincidence too. We didn't choose it. To be honest, I would prefer to go back to my own world straight away, and so would Roan. Unfortunately, we have no idea how to do so."

Rean and Roan left a lot of information out. They didn't say that Roan was a Death Spirit, nor did they tell about the Yin Yang Soul Gem. It didn't seem like they would know about the Universe, so they didn't comment about it either.

Juri sighed and then spoke.

"Simply put, although you have your previous life memories, none of those memories would help you in the cultivation world."

Rean pondered a bit before saying.

"I wouldn't say that they would be useless, but I really can't find a good use for them at the moment."

Roan nodded as well. His job was basically to guide the souls into the Reincarnation Path. His previous abilities were also related to this job. Because of that, his knowledge isn't all that useful either.

The twins then looked at the silent Juri and Alanda. Whatever they say will decide their future.
