The Pinnacle of Life

As Maiko continued the search for the hidden room, Alex and Luna sat at a bench and made some tea for themselves, enjoying the drink as they chatted.

Luna said, “Remember what Herschel and Dominique said? Herschel said that he only achieved Nascent Soul after obtaining the secret of Spiritual Valley Dungeon. It would seem that some old spirit managed to steal from Herschel when he was in this very valley.”

Alex replied. “So you’re saying the valley isn’t safe and that something in there could pose a bigger danger to us?”

“Yep. If Herschel is on Nascent Soul, that old spirit must be of a higher rank. Good thing he must be a remnant soul. His spirit’s most likely been heavily damaged before, something that’s to your advantage.”

“No wonder he was that powerful. I thought all Nascent Soul cultivators are that powerful!”

Luna had a scornful expression, gawking at Alex as if she was looking at a complete fool. “How powerful do you think Nascent Souls are? A little more than you, a Core Formation cultivator, perhaps? I’d let you know that you are so wrong! True Nascent Souls are stronger than him!”

“No way?”

“The powerful ones are tens or hundreds of times stronger than Herschel.”

“Holy s… Then wouldn’t one Nascent Soul be able to kill all of us with just their power alone? That’s way too shocking, you’ve got guts.”

‘If Herschel could beat you to death, wouldn’t that mean you have a death wish for trying to kill a Nascent Soul?’
