Chapter 601: Chapter 597: Returning to the Heaven-Stepping Sect Again

While Lin Hao was still pondering, Duan Tianyu’s voice came again:

"Some of those bastards from the Divine Demon Destruction Domain are just begging for a beatdown. I bet you’ve already made a lot of enemies. If I were you, I’d take this chance to go on a killing spree here in the Divinity Realm and show those sons of bitches that there’s always a bigger fish."

Once he started talking, he couldn’t stop.

"Let me tell you, the Divinity Realm is a big reason why that Lin Wu’s cultivation realm is advancing so quickly. After we first met, I returned to the Second Layer and happened to run into Lin Wu. He was in a virtually unexplored region of the Second Layer, battling the descendant of an ancient vicious beast."

Hearing this, Lin Hao raised an eyebrow slightly.

Duan Tianyu continued, "Later, when he first entered the Third Layer, his cultivation was only at the Eighth Layer of Soul Gathering Realm. But he crushed all the experts in his path, eventually reaching the peak and looking down on everyone. You could totally do the same.

But I have to warn you, Lin Wu didn’t draw out the old monsters from the Divine Demon Destruction Domain back then. It’s different for you. You’ve become a public enemy. The moment you enter the Third Layer of the Divinity Realm, I reckon even those old freaks will make a move on you in secret."

Having said this, Duan Tianyu finally fell silent.

"Thanks for the warning. I’ll go back and make sure my physical body is secure, then I’ll re-enter the Divinity Realm," Lin Hao transmitted mentally to Duan Tianyu.

Duan Tianyu wasn’t surprised. Lin Hao only heard a burst of loud laughter, and then silence.

Without a glance at the other Martial Artists in the Second Layer of the Divinity Realm, Lin Hao returned the way he came. His consciousness flew back to his body at top speed, returning to the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion.

When Lin Hao returned, the remaining elder at the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion stared at him with an expression of utter shock.

Although this elder had not left his post in order to guard Lin Hao’s physical body, news from the Divinity Realm had already spread throughout the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion.

Everyone in the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion was completely stunned.

The idol who had once set countless records in the starting area of the Divinity Realm was actually Lin Hao—this revelation hit the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion like a clap of thunder.

Later, the way Lin Hao had clashed with Lin Wu across dimensions left all the prodigies of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion with a bitter taste in their mouths.

The gap between them and the likes of Lin Hao and Lin Wu was just too vast.

It was impossible for the Martial Artists of the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion not to discuss such a major event, and with the elder’s incredible Spiritual Sense, he had naturally overheard the news.

Therefore, it was not at all strange for him to have such an expression.

"Thank you for guarding me, Elder." Seeing the elder still there upon his return, Lin Hao thanked him very politely.

The elder, however, shook his head. "I was only doing my duty."

After a moment’s hesitation, the elder couldn’t help but ask Lin Hao, "Twenty days. Are you really confident?"

Lin Hao shook his head honestly, but there wasn’t a trace of panic on his face.

"Whatever you need, just ask. As long as it’s something the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion can provide, it won’t be a problem," the elder said to Lin Hao after a brief pause.

Although he wasn’t the one who could make the final decision, he believed the other elders would feel the same way.

Lin Hao still shook his head, but his gaze shifted to the direction in which the other elder had left.

The other elder had gone to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to look for a turtle egg.

"He hasn’t returned yet—" Before the elder could finish his sentence, he took a step forward, blocking Lin Hao.

Then, a turtle appeared before the two of them.

"Not bad, kid!" The turtle glanced at the elder before speaking directly to Lin Hao.

Who else could it be appearing at this moment but Turtle Egg?

"You haven’t gone back yet?" Lin Hao countered with a question of his own.

Turtle Egg replied smugly, "I knew you’d change your mind, so I was waiting for you."

Ignoring it, Lin Hao turned to the elder. "Elder, in twenty days, I have a duel with Lin Wu. I don’t know how many people will want to kill my physical body. If I stay here, rivers of blood will flow in the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion. So, I must leave for a while."

Back in the Second Layer of the Divinity Realm, Lin Hao had sensed several waves of killing intent, so he was well aware of his situation.

’Never mind whether the people from the upper realm can descend or not; even if they can’t, they’ll probably just pressure the Holy Lands and esoteric sects on the Celestial Yang Continent.’

’On top of that, there’s the Jinglian Saint Institute. I’m afraid the Jinglian Saint Institute in the Divine Demon Destruction Domain will deploy a terrifying Spiritual Artifact just to kill me.’

’Therefore, the only safe place for me right now is the Heaven-Stepping Sect.’

’Not only does the Heaven-Stepping Sect have the Saha World, but within the Saha World lies the damaged Emperor’s Soldiers left behind by Emperor Hongtian.’

’Moreover, Turtle Egg and Lord Lingdi can use many of the methods Emperor Hongtian left behind at the Heaven-Stepping Sect.’

’I’ll be absolutely safe there. Even if a Saint were to appear, they wouldn’t be able to touch my physical body.’

The elder opened his mouth, about to say that the Heaven-Breaking Pavilion was very safe, but when he thought of what happened to the Pavilion Master, the words died on his lips. He changed his tune: "Wait for the Dean to return. We should be able to spare two people to go with you and guard you."

"Thank you, but I won’t gamble with my own life. Where I’m going, not even a Saint could lay a finger on me," Lin Hao replied with a smile.

"Are you guys done yet?! Little old man, where’s your teleportation array? I need to use it," Turtle Egg grumbled impatiently at the elder.

The elder wasn’t offended. Instead, he respectfully led the way.

Having lived for over a thousand years, he was naturally worldly and wise, and this turtle made his heart palpitate with unease.

"Hey, that chick in there is not bad looking. She could warm your bed for you in the future." As the two men and one turtle passed the Holy Hall, Turtle Egg suddenly piped up.

The elder’s knees went weak, and he collapsed in fright.

Lin Hao’s eyes widened, and he immediately kicked out at the turtle.

He glanced stealthily toward the Holy Hall, but there wasn’t the slightest stir.

Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Forgetting the disrespect of manhandling a superior, he grabbed the limp elder and ran.

"Th-this is the teleportation array... I... I have something to do, I’ll be going now..." After pointing Lin Hao to their destination, the elder, despite stuttering, somehow found the strength to vanish in an instant.

Lin Hao felt creeped out as well. He roared, "Get your ass out here!"

Turtle Egg immediately appeared, chuckling mischievously.

"Get to work, my time is precious!" Still fuming, Lin Hao stomped his foot down on the turtle.

Turtle Egg’s origins were terrifyingly grand, yet it didn’t dare to act out of line in front of Lin Hao.

It wasn’t angry, and immediately got to work.

This time, it moved with extreme speed, quickly carving the coordinates onto the teleportation array.

"Don’t worry, I’ll stake my life on it this time. The coordinates are absolutely accurate!" Turtle Egg guaranteed before Lin Hao could even speak.

"I’ll trust you one more time," Lin Hao said as he and Turtle Egg stepped into the teleportation array together.

With a flash of light, the man and the turtle vanished.

The next moment, countless miles away at the Heaven-Stepping Sect’s God-Proving Platform, the sky above suddenly distorted.

Then, Lin Hao and Turtle Egg appeared on the God-Proving Platform.

Lin Hao had returned to the Heaven-Stepping Sect once again.

Meanwhile, back in the Divinity Realm, although both Lin Hao and Lin Wu had left, the number of Martial Artists had increased rather than decreased.

Myriad races and ancient families from the Divine Demon Destruction Domain all entered the Divinity Realm at this time.

One major figure appeared after another. The winds howled, heralding an approaching storm...
