Chapter 335: The Return of the Saint Heir_2
This progress is much slower than during my time at the Divine Martial Sect.
But Shi Nian has no other way.
The Divine Martial Sect's map has Mahayana Realm experts, it's a relatively high-quality map, where daily tasks provide more Experience Points, and occasionally a high-level daily task bursts forth, fattening the reward in one go.
The quality of the Spiritual Power and the strength of the powerful beings in this region are much inferior, and the quality of daily tasks they yield is relatively mediocre, naturally slowing her pace down.
Yet Shi Nian is not in the least bit anxious.
Now Shi Nian has reached level fifty, and both Secret Books she practices have also reached the first layer at 30% proficiency.
Though the proficiency is increasing slower and slower, she has plenty of time and patience.
According to Xiao Tong's words, at level eighty, one is basically invincible in the Human Realm.
At level fifty, she was already equivalent to someone in the Divinity Transformation Stage.
Despite the increasingly slowing pace of her advancement, Shi Nian still does not want to leave.
This place is too safe, slow is fine as long as it's stable.
She was thinking this way.
Suddenly, a bright red dot flashed across the map, followed by some slightly dimmer red dots.
Shi Nian couldn't help but lift an eyebrow.
A Nascent Soul Peak expert, plus some at the Golden Core Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
This level of Cultivation would not be considered much in the outside Cultivation World.
But in the barren regions of the West, it's rather unusual.
Curiously, Shi Nian observed the movements of these people.
To her surprise, they were headed even deeper into the territory.
Shi Nian estimated her own strength ought to be more than enough to suppress them; worrying they might commit misdeeds here, she stealthily followed them.
As a result...
The deeper they went, the more surprised Shi Nian became.
These people's direction of travel was exactly the route she had taken when fleeing.
Could they be coming for her?
No, that's not right.
Shi Nian quickly dismissed this possibility. She had not left any traces along her way, and if they could trace her, they would have approached her directly instead of following the route again.
Driven by her curiosity, these individuals actually arrived at the small village where her original body had been born.
The leading Nascent Soul expert held a Compass in hand, which was pointing straight in a certain direction.
That person was overjoyed, "It's really here! Who would have thought that the Saint Heir would be reincarnated in such a place? This time, as long as we can bring back the Saint Heir, we might play a major role in this!"
All of these people were invigorated, following eagerly.
Shi Nian frowned slightly.
There was an unpleasant aura emitting from these people when they used their Spiritual Power.
Xiao Tong yawned and said, "They are from the Evil Path. Remember the Demon Clan from before? They specialized in creating Demon Techniques targeting the physique of humans, to bewitch the Human Clan. I've investigated; there are no Demon Clans in this world. But this world has cultivators of the Evil Path. They are also of the Human Clan, yet they practice through distressing methods seeking to level up swiftly. There are those who cultivate with fresh blood, those who use resentment for cultivation, and those who specifically refine vengeful ghosts. They are numerous and nefarious. Additionally, in this world, the balance of power between the Evil Path cultivators and the Righteous Cultivators is evenly matched, with neither able to gain the upper hand."
"The Spiritual Power of these people carries a terrible resentment, and their Cultivation Technique is likely related to the creation and manipulation of resentment," Xiao Tong added.
Shi Nian frowned again.
Indeed, every small world has its own ecosystem.
In the previous small world, it was mainly a struggle between humans and demons. There were cultivators from the Evil Path, but they had no room to survive at all.
This small world, lacking Demon Clan, has instead given rise to Evil Path cultivators who seem to be quite frantic.
Should she get involved in this matter?
Shi Nian's brows furrowed slightly; she concealed her tracks and continued to follow.
Wait and see.
She was also curious to know exactly who this Saint Heir mentioned by these people was!
Then, as these people continued on their path, Shi Nian began to feel an all-too-familiar sensation; she halted abruptly.
This is... this is...
"It's the way to Erniu's house," Xiao Tong reminded.
Shi Nian came to the same realization, her expression growing even more bizarre.
She didn't intend to get entangled with her original parents again, but now it seemed she must?
If these people were to harm her original parents, should she save them, or not?
But don't think too much of it for now. What if it were just the same road?
Shi Nian followed for a while longer and, not knowing what to say, found that these people had indeed clearly targeted Erniu's house.
