The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 872 A Talk

"The next destination shall be what you decide, Gentleman." The pilot said with a smile on its rabbit face. He sounded polite and all.

"Then, let's go to Mortalis." Jin Rou answered.

The pilot revealed a shocked expression for a while before saying, "Oh, Mortalis it is."

The Dark Train was going there, anyways. So it's not actually a hassle. It was also probably the reason why the Scheme Fate agreed. Nevertheless, the authority was still real. If ever Jin Rou decided to change his mind, then the authority would still be in effect as long as he's still inside the Dark Train.

"Mortalis is a wonderful yet dangerous world, Gentleman." The pilot said, "It is the hive of the strongest existences of the worlds and universe."

"I have been noted." Jin Rou nodded, "Nevertheless, do you have some suggestion of where to go first in Mortalis?"

Mortalis was the Last Heaven. It was the highest realm of all the realms in this universe. Of course, Jin Rou knew the dangers there. But he was Han Li right now. He was someone who would tread on these dangerous places for several times. If not, he wouldn't be challenging the heavens for the 9th time now.

"My knowledge of the outside world is limited. However, I heard from those Particularities who hopped off the train to get there had one destination common in their minds." The pilot said. He puffed a smoke and added, "Have you ever heard of the Evangeline Cross?"

Evangeline Cross was a popular place in Mortalis which was usually visited by people. It was said to have the best effects when training and getting ready for something major. Usually, cultivators would stop by that place to enhance their minds and bodies.

"I've heard a bit of it." Jin Rou nodded, "What about it?"

But surely, there's more than what could meet the eye hence the question.

"There's a circulating rumor that it contains a dao which could help one person maximize their potential." The pilot didn't keep this as a secret, "It was just a hunch of the Particularities, anyway. But they went to that place to actually confirm it."

"And are there probable results?" Jin Rou asked.

"Unfortunately, none. That's why it stayed as rumors." The pilot shook his head, "But it's worth visiting knowing the effects of that place."

"I will take note of that." Jin Rou added the place as 'To Visits'. He would be there for once in his lifetime anyway, so he much as well go along the way.

There was a bit of silence in the place. The two didn't bother talking again and looked at the falls with a reversed direction of water falling down. The place was so much peaceful that Sylvianna mistaken it for a place to rest.

Dying in this area wasn't that bad, in any case.

"The dao is too long for everyone, yet you are still persevering despite your age." The pilot suddenly opened his mouth and said. After the long time of silence of who knows how long.

"It will not be the dao if it isn't too long." Jin Rou sighed. He experienced such ease in cultivating, maybe it's due to his talents. But there were also times it's also getting difficult.

Suddenly, he remembered the times he had when he painstakingly cultivate under the tutelage of Feng Lin, his late master.

"Your cultivation is so deep because you tried hard to have it." The pilot remarked, "It's not the talent you have. Talent alone will not make you of who you are right now."

"You look like you have seen through my mysteries." Jin Rou chuckled. He wasn't surprised, though. The pilot also had a deep cultivation that even Jin Rou couldn't measure.

But what the pilot said was true. Talent alone couldn't make Jin Rou come to this point. Just think about it, in their universe and whatnot, Zenith Gods were the ultimate realm. But he discovered that there were more stronger than that.

He was enhanced by the battles he had in the past and it molded him to who he was now.

"Mysteries are nothing but a piece of a puzzle." The pilot puffed another smoke and said, "But fret not, even if I battle you in full power, I don't think I can win."

"As if." Jin Rou didn't buy the words and shook his head, "You have this kind of power yet you are here just maneuvering the train. Outside, you can surely break realms and realms."

"Being here gives me peace. I had enough of the bloody wars. My hands are also tainted with insurmountable bloods of who knows who." The pilot sighed wryly, "This is better."

"Maybe. After all, even the World Era cannot make you move unless you willed it to." Jin Rou said. He was sure that even the World Era wouldn't want to cross paths with this old man for the sake of benefits.

"World Era, huh." The pilot chuckled all of sudden, "Those brats will never give in. They will always aim for the Scheme Fate's position. But thanks to you, their plans will be foiled for many years from now on."

He was talking about the bracelet Jin Rou had given to Scheme Fate.

"Yes, that will make enough time for that fate to change her own fate." Jin Rou nodded. He suddenly turned a bit philosophical and laughed it, "I've become carried away talking to you."

"It's okay. It has been a while since the last time I talked to someone. Perhaps, a million of years ago? I don't know. I've just been driving this train for so long that I lost count." The pilot said with a soft tone. You could hear the weariness in his voice as he spoke.

"With your power, you can break free of this place and go wherever you want. In the Thousand Realms, you will be treated like a god. You can find peace there." Jin Rou suggested. He didn't know why he felt so close with this old man. Perhaps he could see his old master in this person.

"That will create unnecessary troubles for the Dark Train. For once, the World Era will try to take over before killing Fate." The pilot shook his head. The suggestion was good, but it wasn't possible at this time around. In truth, the pilot was the sole reason why the World Era couldn't make bold moves in the Dark Train.

Jin Rou didn't say more. He understood the old man's concerns. It's not his place to poke his nose into."
