Chapter 882: To the Wild West Continent

"...You think this is a game?"

"Isn’t the Mystic Void Continent just one big game?" Kenny joked.

...

Kenny Lin was a person of swift action. Once he made a decision, he would act on it immediately.

The day after he told Amalia that he was going to the Wild West Continent for training, he left without even saying goodbye. It was said that Master Lian personally took him.

The Wild West Continent was far from the Green Lotus Sect, and one had to pass through dangerous areas to get there, so most people couldn’t even attempt the journey.

"I heard that Junior Master Uncle went to the Wild West Continent. Is it true?" Renshu Chang Chang had heard this from his master, so he came running to confirm it with Amalia.

"Your master has no reason to lie to you. He really has gone to the Wild West Continent," Amalia guessed that he must have heard it from Sect Leader Qing.

Renshu Chang’s expression became complicated. "The Wild West Continent is very dangerous, but it’s also a rare place for training. Some say it’s like a living hell. People who go there barely make it out alive. Some never come back. Aren’t you worried about him?"

Renshu Chang, knowing how special their relationship was, understood their bond better than most.

"Worrying won’t help. His mind has already been set. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left without telling me," Amalia replied calmly.

Renshu Chang could see that she was staying composed. "If Master Lian is protecting him, Junior Master Uncle shouldn’t be in mortal danger. But why would he do this? Is it because the Path of All Immortals is coming soon?"

The Path of All Immortals was only open to cultivators below the Deity Transformation stage. Kenny Lin was currently at the late Nascent Soul stage. Whether he could break through to the Soul Formation stage, or even reach its late or peak stage, within half a year was uncertain. Even though he had cultivated quickly before, the higher the realm, the harder the breakthroughs became.

Would Kenny Lin really rush to improve his strength just because of a future event like the Path of All Immortals? That didn’t seem likely.

"It has nothing to do with the Path of All Immortals," Amalia shook her head.

Renshu Chang noticed that she didn’t want to discuss the matter further, so he didn’t press. "Junior Master Uncle has gone to the Wild West Continent and may not return for a while. What are your plans now?"

With Renshu Chang’s current cultivation, he hadn’t yet broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, so participating in the Path of All Immortals would be a bit difficult. He was starting to feel a little worried for Amalia.

Renshu Chang wasn’t sure why he felt this way. Amalia was progressing faster than him in her cultivation, yet here he was, concerned about her strength not being high enough.

"Is the Wild West Continent really that dangerous?" Amalia answered his question with another question.

Renshu Chang didn’t know what she was thinking, but he nodded and said, "Yes, it’s incredibly dangerous. It’s unlike anything we’re familiar with. It’s more like a mental test. It’s the best place to hone one’s swordsmanship. Master Lian went there once, and after coming back, he grasped the true meaning of the sword. It’s said that Senior Tian Wuya also went there once, but..."

"But what?" Amalia pressed.

Renshu Chang hesitated before saying, "I heard from the elders that when they went to the Wild West Continent, their cultivation level was at least at the Body Integration stage. Junior Master Uncle is only at the Nascent Soul stage right now, so it’s not really comparable. That’s why I’m a bit worried. But don’t worry, Master Lian would never let him die."

These words were clearly meant to comfort Amalia, to ease her worries. After all, if he needed a senior to protect him during his training, how could it still be called a real trial?

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?" Renshu Chang asked again.

Amalia thought for a moment before saying, "I’m wondering if I should go to the Wild West Continent to train as well."

Renshu Chang almost choked on his own spit. He had just finished saying how dangerous the Wild West Continent was, yet now two people wanted to go there.

"You’re still only at the Peak of the Golden Core stage. Going to the Wild West Continent would be even more dangerous for you. The sheer pressure of the negative emotions there might be too much for you to handle, let alone completing any training."

As Renshu Chang spoke, he kept shaking his head.

Amalia raised an eyebrow. "The pressure of negative emotions?"

Seeing that she didn’t even know about this, Renshu Chang couldn’t help but laugh and cry. "There’s a type of giant beast on the Wild West Continent. It’s not physical but rather a spiritual remnant. Over time, it condenses into something like a phantom, only existing on the Wild West Continent. Once it leaves, it disappears. They say it’s related to the energy of the place. These creatures attack a cultivator’s soul, and because they hold deep resentment, they’re surrounded by a kind of oppressive negative emotion. If you get too close, you’ll be affected. Only people with extremely strong willpower can resist. Normal attacks don’t work on them, and that’s just one of the dangers of the Wild West Continent. If you want to train, you don’t have to go there."

Amalia nodded and asked, "If not the Wild West Continent, where else could I go?"

Renshu Chang thought for a moment. "Actually, you could ask Senior Tian Wuya. She’s been everywhere on the Mystic Void Continent, and as your master, she’ll definitely know the best place for you to train."

Amalia agreed, "I’ll first break through to the Peak of the Golden Core stage and try to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Then I’ll ask her in a few days."
