“What? Xian Zhi is leaving? Why is that? Could it be that during Old Man's absence, Xian Zhi has been disturbed in the residence?” Upon hearing Mo Wen's intention to depart, Yin Qian stood up in surprise from his seat.
“Senior Yin, you misunderstand. Junior has been well in the residence; everyone treats me like family.” Mo Wen had initially intended for Yin Jianren to convey a message to his father about his departure before he personally bid farewell. However, Yin Jianren brought him directly to Yin Qian.
“If Xian Zhi has been uncomfortable in my residence, please feel free to speak up. Old Man will arrange for changes immediately…” Hearing Mo Wen's words, Yin Qian did not feel reassured; instead, he thought that Mo Wen must be uncomfortable in his home, prompting his decision to leave.
“Senior, please allow Junior to finish speaking before making arrangements. I have stayed in Yinzhou for several months now. First, I have made some progress under your guidance not long ago. However, during this time, I have remained restless and unable to focus on my cultivation. Therefore, I wish to travel for a while—to fulfill my plans and also seek opportunities to break through my bottleneck.” Naturally, he could not mention Xiao Hei’s matters; even now, only Old Lu knew of Xiao Hei's existence and current situation.
“Oh! I see. Does Xian Zhi need any supplementary materials? I have some stock in my residence; if you need anything, just let Jianren take you to get it—feel free to take what you need.” Hearing Mo Wen's reasoning, Yin Qian felt somewhat relieved and sat back down.
“Junior does have needs, but they are not supplementary materials; rather, I require your guidance on a matter.” Mo Wen glanced around; he could not ask for the Jin Family’s materials, but he indeed needed some advice from Yin Qian.
Seeing the expression on Mo Wen's face, Yin Qian dismissed those around them: “If Xian Zhi has any matters needing Old Man's assistance, please speak freely. Old Man will certainly share everything he knows.”
“Then Junior won’t be coy. I wish to go to the Lava Sea for a period of cultivation. Regarding the Lava Sea, I only know what I've read in books; I am unaware of the details. If Senior knows anything, please enlighten me,” Mo Wen said with cupped hands.
“The Lava Sea!” Upon hearing that Mo Wen wished to cultivate at the Lava Sea, Yin Qian was taken aback.
“Senior, is there something wrong?” Seeing Yin Qian’s reaction, Mo Wen felt curious and filled with hope.
“That is not a suitable place for cultivation. Xian Zhi is not going there merely for cultivation, is he? But rest assured, everyone has their own secrets. Since you wish to go to the Lava Sea, there must be your reasons. Although Old Man does not know much about it, I do know of a place where Xian Zhi can obtain the information and opportunities you seek; you might want to try your luck there…” Yin Qian solemnly shared what he knew with Mo Wen.
Before him lay the place Yin Qian spoke of. After more than a month of travel, Mo Wen finally arrived here. At this moment, he had changed his appearance into that of a robust man from Ran Xu, dressed in a short shirt and carrying a sword—the very sword given to him by Old Lu along with the Transformation Technique. Now that he had entered the Ning Shen Realm, he could finally cultivate this technique. In the distance, the red glow of the Lava Sea soared into the sky, illuminating half of the night sky. Standing beneath the archway and looking around revealed no inscriptions on it; there were also no tall walls or patrolling guards surrounding the small town. However, the streets before him were orderly and well-maintained.
