Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy-Chapter 490 - 343: She Will Inherit My Mission

Luo Chen listened to the words of the White-haired Monk, and couldn’t help but feel shaken in his heart. He had always tried to establish himself in the martial world, but it seemed he was always shackled by various constraints and limitations. Now, after hearing these words, he began to ponder whether he should change his way of doing things.

However, when he thought about having to kill, he still felt hesitant and reluctant. "My strength is inadequate," Luo Chen said somewhat dejectedly. He knew that although he was listed on the list of notorious individuals, his actual strength was indeed lacking. If he acted rashly, he feared it would only invite more trouble.

The White-haired Monk seemed to see through Luo Chen’s thoughts and softly comforted, "Brother, don’t be in a hurry to achieve success. The improvement of strength requires time and effort. As long as you’re willing to change your mindset and face challenges bravely, I believe in the not-so-distant future, you will certainly become one of the outstanding figures among the true villains."

Luo Chen felt a warm flow in his heart after hearing these words. He knew he needed time to grow and transform, and the monk’s words gave him confidence and courage. He decided that from now on, he would train harder and enhance his abilities with the hope that one day he would become a fearsome figure. At the same time, he also started contemplating how to handle matters more decisively, no longer hesitating or retreating. He knew this path wouldn’t be easy, but he was willing to try and strive for his future.

"Strength! What is strength?" The White-haired Monk sighed laboriously, looking at Luo Chen with deep helplessness and advice in his eyes, "You are already very strong now. In this Sunset Forest, you are the undeniable king."

Luo Chen frowned, gazing into the distance, as if searching for something or perhaps escaping from something. "I am only strong here in this god-restricted Sunset Forest, with the help of the Golden Treasure Spiritual Pill Sword, that’s how I could be like this," he said lightly, with a hint of unnoticeable melancholy in his tone. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

The White-haired Monk, however, shook his head, disagreeing, "No, you are wrong. First, that Black Wild Dog was helpless against you, then that Golden Dragon was also at a loss. Even in that perilous Black Rock Valley, you tread as if on uninhabited ground, and those fearsome high-level Soul Beasts couldn’t do anything to you. Do you know, even duelists at the level of the mysterious Exiled Immortal couldn’t be as easeful as you in this Sunset Forest."

Luo Chen remained silent. He knew he indeed had extraordinary strength in this forest, but what about after leaving here? Could he still be as strong? He wasn’t sure.

"You actually think your strength is insufficient..." the White-haired Monk continued, his tone revealing his confusion and regret for Luo Chen.

"That’s only in the Sunset Forest. If I leave here, my cover would be blown," Luo Chen finally spoke, expressing his inner worries, "Outside, I’m just an ordinary person. Without the Golden Treasure Spiritual Pill Sword, without the protection of the restrictions here, I’m nothing."

The White-haired Monk laughed after hearing that, "No, you’re wrong. Even after leaving the Sunset Forest, you are still formidable. Tell me, in this world, which duelist has more strength than you? Which duelist is faster than you? Although you can’t fly with a sword, you don’t even need to fly with a sword now. You live in the mortal world, why do you need to fly with a sword? In secular life, duelists also dare not kill indiscriminately, limited by heavenly tribulations, unable to do as they please... Not to mention, if you really can’t do it, there’s still me, the monk!"

Luo Chen looked at the White-haired Monk’s confident, smiling face in a daze. "You?" he asked in confusion, "Can you help me now?"

The White-haired Monk proudly grinned, "Heh heh! After I absorbed the Spirit of Death from the Divine Dragon Sect’s Junior Martial Uncle and have the protection of the Yin-Yang Boat, I can now move freely within a small range." With that, he laughed proudly.

"So soon?" Luo Chen was shocked, looking at the White-haired Monk in disbelief, "How could you recover so fast?"

"Not fast, not fast!" The White-haired Monk sighed deeply, "The road is still long! At your current speed, it would take at least three to five hundred years for me to possibly achieve the state of a wandering immortal." His words revealed anticipation and longing for the future, but also an awareness of the hardship and length of the cultivation path.

Hearing this, Luo Chen remained silent. He knew the White-haired Monk was speaking the truth; the road of cultivation is indeed long and arduous. But he also firmly believed that with effort, success is attainable. "Alright then!" He took a deep breath and said, "I’ll give my best effort! I won’t keep you waiting too long!"
