Chapter 498 - Plans
Wano smiled as he said.
"That's a matter of course. In fact, I would also flee straight away if a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator suddenly appears. I couldn't pay attention to you even if I wanted to."
Roan nodded in response.
Calina and Malaka then looked at Kuana, Laffey, and Cassy.
"In your case, I would really leave this place now that it is safer. Try to stay around the barrier border for now as well as the demon beast forests. It's the same reason as Wano's. If an enemy that's too strong appears, we really won't be able to do much for you."
Kuana's group knew that it was true. During the battles they had on their way here, they saw that Kentucky, Calina, Malaka, and Wano were much more powerful than what their cultivation showed. However, the three girls weren't anything like that.
"We will leave for the border then. Do you know how long it will take for the Energy Core to run out of it?"
Rean shook his head as he pondered.
"I don't know. However, considering this natural formation's size, a really powerful energy core is necessary just for it to turn on. That being said, you might have to wait a few years in here. Don't forget, the time here passes ten times faster or more. That's why it looks like a lot of time for us."
Kuana's group couldn't help but sigh. That also meant that they wouldn't be able to get any resources for the time being from their sect. Well, they could go look for resources themselves since there was a lot of area to cover. Demon beast forests usually have a lot of Spiritual Herbs that could be used directly for cultivation.
"Alright, we understand."
Rean then sent a Spiritual Sense Message to the girls, telling them the route they took to arrive. It was pretty safe during their journey here, so it should be of some use for Kuana's group to leave this place. Following that, Kuana, Cassy, and Laffey thanked Malaka and the others for the help and departed.
After that was done, Wano took the chance to ask.
"So, what do you want to do for now?"
Rean shrugged his shoulders before saying.
"We all had quite a few battles on our way to this place, right? I just need to check one thing for now."
He then put his hands on Calina and Malaka's shoulders before sending his Spiritual Sense and Light Element into their bodies. Calina and Malaka were already used to it. He did that to heal any hidden injuries in their bodies due to overtraining or battles. At the same time, he could check the state of their foundation. In this part, he was even better than Roan.
"Alright. All the things you went through made your foundations very sturdy. Roan and I are pretty much in the same state. That being said, we should take our time to sit down and cultivate. There's no need to look for problems for now."
Roan nodded.
"Since you confirmed that their foundation is okay, then let's find a place to hide and cultivate."
Wano couldn't help but ask.
"Was it me, or did you use the Light Element just now?"
Rean looked at Wano with a surprised look.
"Oh! Someone from outside Jialin Country can tell?"
Wano nodded.
"Jialin? Are you perhaps famous there?"
Rean smiled.
"You could say so. But you still didn't answer my question."
Wano didn't mind.
"Well, since you can use the Light Element, that means you use a Yang Energy Cultivation Technique. Yang Energy Cultivation Techniques are pretty rare in this place. To be honest, I also use a Yang Energy Cultivation Technique."
Wano then lifted his hand and summoned Fire Element around it. However, Rean could easily tell that Yang Energy was also present, making it much fiercer while using less Spiritual Energy.
"No wonder you're stronger than those around your level."
Wano nodded.
"Indeed. Well, you guys can't say much. Not only do you use a Yang Energy Cultivation Technique, these two girls use a Yin Energy Cultivation Technique as well."
Rean smiled but didn't answer. He did have a Yang Energy Cultivation Technique, which he obtained from Zuan. However, he only used it to learn the skills in it. His real cultivation technique was far above that.
"So we are both Yang Energy users, that's quite nice. I hope we can learn a few things from each other during our time together."
"Sure thing."
Roan then looked at the two.
"Are the best buddies done chatting? If so, then let's go."
Everyone nodded and immediately made their way out of there. They intended to train against the Lakure Race members, but they would first spend their time cultivating since their foundations were already as sturdy as they can be. Roan wasn't sure about Wano, but that wasn't his problem. Since the guy didn't say anything, it probably meant he can also cultivate at the moment.
Rean took the free time they had while they were moving and asked Malaka about Kentucky.
"Did Kentucky eat the whole red crystal?"
Malaka nodded in response.
"He did. He went to the point of carrying it away with us. For real, this guy gave us a fright when he charged into those Lakure Race cultivators. Fortunately, the enemies underestimated our strength by a lot. Not to mention that the Formation Masters around the crystal were not fighters. Otherwise, we might have really died there."
Rean nodded as he looked at Kentucky.
*Chick?*
"Well, it doesn't seem like it was a bad thing for him. Roan, can we focus on those Red Crystals after we finish cultivating?"
Roan nodded.
"I was already intending to do that. From what they told us, the Lakure Race Members have a ton of these things. That also means we can easily find them with that."
To make sure that they wouldn't be found by coincidence, the group moved quite far away from the place they were previously. They all used the Earth Element to move the earth on a small cliff, creating a cave inside. They might not be Earth Element users, but it wasn't so hard to do something like that as long as they put in the effort. After concealing it with the forest's vegetation, they entered inside and created a few separated rooms for each of them.
Rean then used his knowledge to make a few Anti-Spiritual Sense Formations, both inside and outside the cave. Inside because he didn't want Wano checking on them, and outside was obviously for the enemies. Finally, Wano went to his own cave room and sealed the entrance. As for Rean's group, they went to another one.
"So, Malaka, Calina, what can you tell me about Wano?"
Calina and Malaka shook their heads as they said.
"We already said what we knew. He's much stronger than those at his level. He also noticed that Kentucky was anything but simple. However, when Malaka also asked about his strength, we both agreed to not ask too many questions."
Calina, however, seemed to be pondering about something.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Hmm... I don't know. I just felt a bit of familiarity from his abilities."
Roan narrowed his eyes.
"Did you see his skills before?"
Calina shook her head as she answered.
"Not really. It's more related to his cultivation instead."
Rean couldn't help but ask.
"You mean he's someone from the Imperial Family?"
"I can't be sure. After all, there are way too many techniques in the Imperial Family's repository. It could very well be that. However, I've seen many other powers demonstrating their skills on several other occasions, so it might have been someone else. Or maybe it's even the subordinate clans since they're very close to us."
Roan nodded.
"That's already good enough. Before you came to Dalamu, you lived your life in the Capital and only traveled to the surrounding countries there. That means he most likely came from there as well. It's also obvious that he's hiding his identity. In any case, let's keep an eye on him from now on. We might find out something interesting."
Everyone nodded, agreeing with Roan. In any case, having a Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator as strong as Wano around wasn't such a bad thing. Of course, as long as he didn't become an enemy.
"Alright, then. This natural formation turned out to be a blessing for us. We needed time for Calina to train, and now we've got it. I hope this natural formation keeps up as long as possible."
"So we will just ignore this race that's coming out? Wouldn't they try to conquer the other countries and things like that?"
Roan shrugged his shoulders as he said.
"And what do you think we can do about it? It's already obvious that they have at least Soul Forging Realm cultivators on their side. Most likely, even someone at the Saint Realm. We're powerless against them. That being said, let's make use of what we can use. As for the rest, this will be an issue for the Sasamil Imperial Family to deal with. Understood?"
Calina, Malaka, and Rean nodded.
"Good! Then, let's start cultivating."
