Chapter 318: Resting Place (1/2)

Sam is making preparations for his visit to the Beast faction. While Jack and Philip are cultivating.

On the third day after his return from the Resource competition. He got an invite from the temple-head.

”There is a reward for winning first place in the resource competition and you played a huge part in the victory. You get to visit the 'Resting Place' and you will get to stay for a week. You have to be careful though as the Nascent stage cultivators will be joining after three days.

You are the number one target of the Beast faction and you would have a hard time saving yourself from them.

You will get the information regarding the Resting Place to your residence and you will be leaving in four days, so be prepared.”

Sam didn't get to speak at all, and he came back. Soon, an attendant brought a scroll that has the records he needed to see.

The Resting Place is basically an ancient battlefield hundreds of years ago and it was the place near the central continent, an island which is one of the most dangerous locations of the whole Planet.

It is dangerous not because of the presence of beasts, it is only one of the reasons, rather the main reason is because of the cultivators, that is the place with no rules at all and everyone can do what they want.

The place is filled with the remains of the people. Centuries ago, there was a large battle between the six major powers, and many experts lost their lives there. The battle stopped only after every power lost many people and powerhouses and reached their weakest points.

After that, every time a high-level cultivator of Pre-transcendence or above reached the final days, either due to their own life span or some internal injuries and ailments, they will enter this land to leave their legacy.

There is no information on why they are going to a forsaken battlefield to leave their legacy instead of giving it to some juniors within their own power.

Anyone with some common sense could understand that there is no valid reason stated in the information given. There is a reason why dying people are going there.

And it is also obvious that the reason was not mentioned in the given info.

But one thing that was mentioned is, there are a lot of legacies in that land and those legacies attract all kinds of people which made it the dangerous place it is today.

There are many stray cultivators, teams from the minor powers, and the major powers who roam around with no rules to restrain them as they search for treasures.

But every time the resource competition happens, the elite teams of the major powers step in and there would be strict regulations on the land restricting the normal cultivators to enter or stay in that area. When the Grand realm candidates of the major powers enter the Nascent stage and above candidates are not allowed to stay.

When the Nascent stage cultivators entered though, there are not many restrictions because the Pre-transcendent and Transcendent stage cultivators generally don't come to this place that often and they wouldn't bother scavenging for the legacies even if they come.

As for how the candidates are going to enter.

There is a pattern in sending the teams.

First, the Grand realm cultivators would go and the winning team gets to take all the ten members including the reserve team, and stay inside the Resting Place for a week. The second-placed team will stay a week as well, but they will only get to take five members. The remaining teams couldn't send anyone.

As for the great realm cultivators, they are too weak to get to this place.

After the first week is over, the Nascent stage cultivators will enter, while the Grand realm cultivators will have to leave, they do have an option to stay there, but it was at their own risk. They would be considered as stray cultivators and wouldn't get the safety they will get in the first week.

As Sam looked at the information, his head is working in full-on.

He already made some plans to deal with the Beast faction, but there are some things which he couldn't do as he doesn't have any idea on how the internal things in the beast faction work and there is no data regarding the characters of the core members, maybe he can use this chance through which he can contact the Nascent stage cultivators.

As he was thinking, he immediately went inside the divine dimension and started working on it.

For the next four days, Sam spent his time forging somethings that he might need in the expedition.

He worked day and night for forty days inside the second floor of the tower.

After four days, they went to the Space Gate. They arrived at another location in which the six major powers have control within the central continent.

This place is the closest to Resting Place Island.

In fact, the island is the centermost landmass of the whole planet.

They boarded some beasts as a Pre-transcendent stage cultivator escorted them to the island and they are going to keep an eye on the Grand realm candidates.

The killings are allowed within the resting place even between the candidates, but there should be no interference from the people of higher cultivation, even though they had strict regulations, there is no way they can completely stop them from entering and there is no way they can regulate the beasts in the island.

So, they have to make sure that the candidates stay safe. But according to the rules, there is only a week of this protection time and after that, they are responsible for their own lives.
