However, it wasn't long before Rean's group noticed a few problems with the wireless communication system. "Rean, I'm picking up interference in the exchange of messages again."

"Senior Srevil, the distance that we need to make the signal travel is much farther than the first test in the sect. Because of that, the consumption of Spiritual Energy is too high."

"The antenna wouldn't be able to operate for more than a few minutes before spending all the surroundings' Spiritual Energy. After that, it will turn off on its own, and there won't be anyone to turn it back on."

"Qia, check this out. The higher usage of Spiritual Energy is making a lot more electricity pass through the Circuitry Runes. The runes won't hold on for much longer like that."

"Senior Govin, the Elemental Gathering Metal in the antenna is reaching its limit. I think the reading of the signal might change if it keeps up for too long."

"Hmm...you're right. I think the merging of Formation Runes with the Elemental Gathering Metal has resulted in some incompatibility issues. I'll need to take it down to check further."

Although many problems could be seen everywhere in the formation, Rean wasn't the least bit bothered by it. "Hahaha! Just as we expected, we have many problems to deal with. However, that's the reason I asked for only twenty antennas and their controlling circuitry devices to be made. For now, leave it be. Let's first install the remaining nineteen of them in the other locations so that we can get a full scope of the general difficulties."

"Yes!"

Rean then turned to Dian and Qia, asking, "Have you finished setting up the tower's protection formation?"

Dian immediately answered, "Yes. As long as it isn't someone at the Core and Soul Fusion Realm or above, it wouldn't be easy to pass through it."

Rean nodded in satisfaction after hearing that. "Very good." Right after, he looked at Kimi and said, "As per our deal, you will protect this tower for the time being as long as it doesn't get in the way of your duties. To be honest, no one other than our sect knows how all of this works anyway, so I don't see why someone would try to steal it. Nonetheless, I'm counting on you."

Kimi was a little conflicted. That new communication formation was something that could set giant waves, so it would be a lie if Kimi said that he didn't want to know more about it. However, he would need to talk with the Fausec King about it. Until then, he would keep his word. "Very well. You said you were going to the capital of our new country, so you better do it soon. After all, I already sent news of your group to them. It has nothing to do with you. This is, as you said, part of my duty as the lord of this city."

Rean already expected as much. "No problem. The Fausec Capital, or the old Kamas City, wasn't our next destination. But now that it has been renamed Fausec City and has become this so-called capital, I changed our plans to go there first. Just to make things move a bit faster, I also contacted the Ancestor of my sect to come along."

"Ancestor?" Kimi couldn't help but sweat a little as he asked, "Just how high is his cultivation?"

"Oh! Nothing too impressive. He's at the Elemental Transformation Realm," Rean said with a nonchalant expression. Well, for someone who always mingled with Transition Realm Zasfins and demon beasts, the Elemental Transformation Realm really didn't look that impressive.

Kimi's expression went pale. 'Just what kind of monsters do they have in that sect? We really chose a shitty area to create our country, that's for sure.' However, he looked at his Heaven-level saber and shook his head. 'Even if things go south, I already profited from this endeavor. Well, it's Mitamo's issue from this point, not mine.'

Everyone then left the tower before Qia activated the protection formation. It would stop others from entering but wouldn't affect the tower's signal. As long as messages weren't constant, the tower could still work on its own.

"Alright, everyone, back to the airship. We're going to Fausec City to meet this Mitamo guy. Senior Fizer will meet us on the way." Rean then grabbed a bunch of disciples with his Spiritual Energy and took them into the airship. Qia and the others did the same thing before everyone left Sustral City.

Back at Freedom Sect, Malo was still curious regarding the development Rean told him about. "A country so early...most of the people of the territory this Fausec guy is taking probably don't even know that it happened."

Roan was there as well. "There's nothing out of the ordinary in it. Since they came from the Sealed Regions, they don't know about us. Let Fizer and Rean deal with it. You already have a lot to do in the sect and your own training to work on."

Malo nodded and put those thoughts on the back of his mind. With Fizer in the Freedom Sect, whether this place became part of a country or not wouldn't change anything.

The old Kamas City was the biggest of the cities abandoned by the Zasfins in the territory claimed by the Fausec Tribe and their partners. That being said, it was also one of the most aimed cities for the humans who had Rean's jade slips.

Just like Sustral, Rean's group quickly noticed the sharp increase of humans making their way there. Rean even went out on his own and helped a few people who were being attacked by demon beasts or bandits. With his cultivation, he could follow the airship as long as it didn't fly at full speed.

Eventually, they were able to see the city in the distance. It was definitely much bigger than Sustral, but far from being as big as other capitals that they visited in the past.

Immediately, Fizer felt the Spiritual Senses touching the airship. "Oh! They truly have one Soul Transformation Realm guy there. Quite a few at the Nascent Soul Realm as well. However, they can't feel my presence due to the difference in cultivation." Fizer then playfully smiled as he muttered, "Now then, I guess this old man has no need to keep his cultivation hidden." Sure enough, Fizer opened his cultivation, making it as bright as the sun for any Spiritual Sense to see. The results...were very good.
