"What kind of stories?"
Frandin continued.
"There's one Empire located on the other side of the world called Tuvaro. What I'm going to say might be true but might not be either. Elder Frun, one of my clan's elders, told me before about something he heard in his trip to the Capital."
"He talked about it as if it was a joke. To be honest, I also laughed a lot while listening since I believe it's just some stupid story or something like that. Anyway, each Empire usually has a few Celestial Lands. Our Palif has three of them, for example. Tuvaro, as another Empire, also has its own Celestial Lands. From what Elder Frun heard, one of these Celestial Lands accepts both humans and Zasfins."
Rean's group couldn't help but feel confused.
"Accept both of them? Do you mean not as slaves, but as real members?"
Frandin shook his head as he replied.
"I don't know. That's why I told you it seems like a joke. I doubt such a thing is possible. Then again, I've never left our Tasman Country, let alone our Empire. Perhaps things are not just black and white like they are here."
Malaka then noticed one point.
"If there are more Empires elsewhere, I guess it's safe to say that the Decadence Region isn't the only place where humans are sent to."
Frandin nodded.
"Indeed. There are a few other places where humans are sent to. After all, our world is just too big. It would be impractical to move every human to a single location. I only know where the Decadence Region is located, though. I've never cared about the other regions. You might find more about it in bigger cities."
Roan then went back to the main topic.

"Forget about these human dumpster regions. I want to know more about this Celestial Land you've talked about. You should have heard at least its name, right?"
Frandin nodded.
"It's called the Unity Celestial Land."
"Well, that would be a fitting name if they really allowed both races to be part of it. However, how come the Zasfin Race hasn't tried to stop them?"
"As I said, this is just a story Elder Frun heard in the Capital. I can't even tell you if this place even exists or not. Let alone tell you why it operates like this."
"That's true..."
It was a blind shot, but it didn't seem like Rean's group had a better choice to start with. Naturally, they could only bet their coins in this Tuvaro Empire's Celestial Land even though it is most likely a farce. That being said, Roan moved on to the next question.
"Which would be the easiest way to reach Tuvaro?"
Frandin pondered for a bit before saying.
"The easiest way is to take a flying demon beast there. I'm not sure how far it is, though. Usually, people would go to the Capital when they need to do such long-distance travels."
Malaka found it strange.
"Don't you have Teleport Formations?"
Rean and Qia immediately laughed.
"Hahaha! Forget it, Malaka. Even back on our planet, the best Teleport Formations couldn't send you more than a thousand or so kilometers away. People had to take many teleport formations one after another if they wanted to travel a long distance in a short time. Not to mention that only those capable of paying the necessary Spirit Stones would be able to do so."
"Rean's right. Besides, even if their Teleport Formations are at the same level as ours, we would still need to teleport from one city to another. It's too dangerous to travel like this due to our cultivation."

Frandin was shocked to hear that.
"Your teleport formations could go up to a thousand kilometers?!"
Rean nodded.
"However, those are very expensive and hard to make."
Frandin took a deep breath as he said.
"Even though that's the case, the best teleport formations we have are in the Capital, but they can only send you a few hundred kilometers away. Not to mention that only the high echelon is allowed to use it. I wish I could go to this world of yours."
Rean was not surprised by that. He could more or less see the difference in the level of formations between this planet and their old one. Of course, he hadn't seen the other cities and Empires' Formations, so the situation might not really be as Frandin had mentioned.
Roan narrowed his eyes before he asked.
"Would it be possible to use teleport formations to go to Tuvaro? I mean, are there enough links to make it possible?"
Frandin pondered for a bit before he shook his head.
"I don't think so. As I said, only the best teleport formations can send you up to a few hundred kilometers away. However, Tuvaro is much, much farther away than that. There's no way that any Empire would make so many of these super expensive formations to link each Empire up. Besides, it would be quite unsafe for many other reasons."
Roan sighed as he nodded. He already expected that much.
"Too bad, then."
Roan's plan was to keep everyone inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and have one Rean walk outside with Frandin. He could use Frandin and his own Spiritual Sense bending skill to go near and use the teleport formations. Although many risks were involved, they would also avoid other dangers when traveling by foot.
Rean's group then asked many more questions about this world to Frandin. Finally, it reached a point where they had nothing else to ask.
"Well, I guess this is everything."
Frandin felt a chill on his back as he looked at Roan.
"What are you going to do?"
*Pah!*
Roan slapped the back of Frandin's head before saying.
"What, do you think I'm going to kill you? Don't be ridiculous! You have a pure bloodline. I have many, many uses for you."
Rean shrugged his shoulders, already knowing that it would happen.
"Roan just wants to be friends with you, Frandin. Don't mind him too much."
Roan's mouth twitched after hearing that.
"Friends, your ass! Stop your bullshit, and let's head out."
Rean laughed before leaving the jail with everyone else.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
