Roan got to the teleport formation and immediately disappeared with a flash of silver light, together with a few more cultivators heading to the same destination.
Three months and a half before the end of the Destiny Avoidance Mode… due to the much bigger size of Lebgram, losing only to Pol Continent, Roan believed that teleporting from one city to another would take him roughly that time. And that was already including the stops for extra recruitment since the twins intended to recruit people from different places and races. ‘In any case, as long as I get most of the path covered, that will be enough.’
And so Roan proceeded. He would teleport from city to city and only stop if there were materials to be bought, supplies to be restocked, or recruitments to be made. He didn’t stop by small cities on those cases, though. It was easier and faster to simply do all of that in the capitals of the countries he passed by.
Since Lebgram was much bigger but still highly packed, it went without saying that the twins’ recruitment got much more new disciples for the sect than on the other continents. The sect had around 5400 disciples at first, but it had already increased to over 8000. Many of those recruits were the same type of people without any attachments, but the twins also recruited experts for the side occupation guilds with Divine Stones.
However, just as they were about to continue recruiting, the twins received a message from Celis about this exact same issue. “That’s enough. No more recruiting.”
Puzzled, Rean asked, “Why’s that? We have 300 kilometers of territory, the same as Dalamu Sect back in Sunkan Planet.”
Celis shook his head, though. “Although the Dalamu Sect’s territory reached 300 kilometers, the disciples there were definitely not doing missions only inside this range. I’m sure your fellow disciples from that time would go to many different locations to have their missions and training, right?”
Rean nodded, saying, “Well, that’s true.”
Celis then continued, “That’s the problem. We don’t have these extra places where we can send people. All the missions occur inside the sect or in the demon beast forest. Although we filled it up with demon beasts, the number of cultivators from our sect entering it to fight for materials and training is already very high. Simply put, the extension of 250 kilometers reserved for the demon beats forest has reached its limit of demon beasts and disciples that can enter to train.”
Rean and Roan understood after that. “More than that, and we won’t have enough demon beasts for them. We made sure everyone understood that no one would save them in the sect’s demon beast forest. After all, that was what it meant to be in life and death situations. It also helped decrease the number of disciples who entered it since some had really died there. However, even this is not enough to keep the numbers in check anymore.”
Celis confirmed. “That’s exactly it. Demon beasts are very territorial living beings when they don’t have intelligence. The fact we have enough demon beasts to be used to train the disciples in a small range of 250 kilometers is far from enough. Usually, demon beasts of a single race would have tens if not hundreds of kilometers for their own territory. Here they don’t have even two or three. The only reason they don’t kill each other for more territory is that they’re inhibited by mine and Kentucky’s Divine Bloodlines. But even so, they’re always in a tense state. We definitely can’t increase their numbers anymore.”
The twins nodded after hearing that. “That means we should keep Destiny Points for another upgrade of the Dimensional Realm.”
Sister Orb didn’t have good news about that, though. [After you spent your last batch of Destiny Points, your numbers haven’t increased much. In the last three years or so, you went from 20357 Destiny Points to 31453. You have changed the destiny of the people in the sect, but they have very little effect on the outside world. That’s why the accumulation is very slow. Not to mention that Destiny Perception Range can only check the changes in destiny up to a million kilometers. You have been traveling nonstop, so any changes you caused in destiny back in other places can’t be detected anymore.]
The twins narrowed their eyes in response. That’s because the next level of the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm Upgrade was the most expensive item on the reward list. It cost a whopping 500000 Destiny Points! They didn’t have even 10% of that at the moment.
”Well, we have to start from somewhere,” Rean said as he sighed.
Roan could only agree with that. “Let’s do as Celis mentioned. We will stop recruiting for the time being and focus on training the disciples we have. In any case, 8000 or so disciples can become a very good army in the future.”
Celis was happy to hear that. “That’s good. There’s no point in rushing things anyway. Besides, you can move the sect outside of the Dimensional Realm. Once you settle things down, put the sect somewhere and let it generate Destiny Points. We’re almost at Jhiod too.”
The twins agreed with Celis.
With that done, Roan went outside and traveled the rest of the distance until he reached the continental barrier between Lebgram and Jhiod. Unfortunately… Fluki couldn’t enter it…
