Chapter 1290: Chapter 571: The Grass on the Grave Grows Higher Than Ever, Turning Directly into the Most Useless Martial Soul

Lin Li waited at the top of the "Ascension Platform" space for more than ten minutes.

Although, according to principles, this Ascension Platform space should belong to Xue Yue and Zhao Yuanming, now the principle is Lin Li himself, so under their swift actions, everyone, from their own people to disciples who came to register for the selection, had been cleared out.

Even after clearing, seeing that Chen Xuan was still unable to respond within the blue light of the jade talisman, they then slightly obsequiously and respectfully inquired if Lin Li needed any further assistance from them.

The great path should not be this small, a Dao companion should not be this few, arrange ten Dao companions for me.

Just joking.

A gentleman judges actions, not thoughts, so whatever Lin Li says, he doesn’t need, is gentlemanly.

Yes, that’s certain.

A gentleman loves wealth, but acquires it through stealing, Lin Li will steal what he wants himself.

After waiting for a few more minutes, the blue light from Chen Xuan finally dimmed a little.

His body trembled within the encasing blue light, Chen Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Lin Li, and his eyes shot out a relieved yet anxious light, his voice, compared to just now, obviously became weaker, interspersed with gasps.

It was clear that the soul-to-soul communication across thousands of miles just now was a huge burden on this elder whose cultivation level was evidently not high within the sect, or else he wouldn’t have been assigned to handle mundane matters.

"Whew—Supreme Grand Uncle, I have made contact! I have directly communicated with the steward elder of the sect’s Affairs Hall and the duty elder of the Emergency Hall! They have all been alerted, and are now heading to the core of the inner sanctum at the fastest speed... to report to the Sect Master and all the Supreme Elders! The Sect Master and they will undoubtedly respond immediately!"

Lin Li, at this moment, was still inside the mecha to maximize his own safety.

After all, no one could guarantee whether someone might launch a sudden stealth attack.

Such is the Cultivation Realm’s nooks, no one knows when what random event might trigger.

At this moment, hearing about the successful contact, Lin Li felt slightly better, seeing that the elder’s state was noticeably wilted, and at this moment still forming arrays with his hands continuously, he expressed concern: "You’ve worked hard, Old Chen, it’s enough that the message has been delivered, you should rest now."

"No... cannot..."

"My mission is not yet ended..."

Chen Xuan shook his head, his hands swiftly formed a few enigmatic magic seals, and the ten-thousand-mile Soul Communication Talisman hovering in front of him increased its blue glow by a notch, seemingly arduously maintaining an invisible channel.

"Supreme Grand Uncle, once this talisman is interrupted, it will be difficult to reconnect... Sect Master and they will certainly respond, if they need to arrive here, they also need a coordinate..."

"Maintaining just the coordinate shouldn’t be this difficult, right?" Lin Li wasn’t entirely uninformed about magic, so he immediately retorted, "Old Chen, you’re clearly still maintaining the communication channel, right?

This places too great of a burden on the origin of your soul, there’s no need."

"To ensure the sect’s response can reach here at the first instance, this is necessary," he took a deep breath, suppressing the surge of his qi blood, casually swallowed a handful of pills:

"Besides, I can still hold on! If there’s any additional information, oral decree, or matters that need to be explained to the sect, Supreme Grand Uncle, now is a good time to transmit them! I’ll remember everything and relay immediately!"

"...there’s a lot of information that needs to be passed along and can’t be said all at once." After several persuasions proved futile, Lin Li was somewhat helpless.

Don’t exhaust yourself to the point of depletion.

Though some people always say people are driven to their limits.

Humor.

Lin Li knew clearly that anyone who said such things was either stupid or simply uninformed.

Don’t they know there’s a way in this world called Caesarean?

In short, right now, Lin Li doesn’t want his first "kill" in the Cultivation Realm to be such a thing.

"Old Chen, stop now, your intention and loyalty, if Grandpa Shanqing knew, he would be pleased, but right now, you only need to maintain the beacon without dispersing it, ensure the sect can locate this place, that’s all, the rest can be said when the Sect Master and the supreme elders arrive! Didn’t you call me Supreme Grand Uncle? Then consider this an order."

"Supreme... Supreme Grand Uncle..."

Seeing Lin Li’s words as they were, his lips moved a few times, eventually without a rebuttal, restrained the power of his soul, the bilateral space fluctuation instantly weakened by half, leaving only the faint blue light locking on the virtual coordinate.

Chen Xuan’s pressure reduced abruptly, gasping heavily.

While Xue Yue and Zhao Yuanming, waiting nearby, hurriedly stepped forward, again took out a few pills to stabilize and nourish vitality, asking if he needed anything.

Lin Li no longer paid attention.

Thus, the Ascension Platform fell into silence.

Lin Li stayed in the mecha, silently calculating the time.

Should make it in time, right?

Although it’s thousands of miles away, this is, after all, the Cultivation Realm.

Top sects should have some means to deal with this kind of situation, and given the value and significance of the information I brought, as long as Qing Yuan Sect believes my words, it should come here regardless of the cost.

This time should be able to wait.

Even if not, it’s fine, teach Chen Xuan and a few others how to use phones and computers later, so if they come after I leave, they can check it out.

Next week’s time flow rate is 1:20, as long as I manage my time properly, it’s equivalent to allowing this Cultivation Realm to digest the news I deliver for 8 more hours.

"Buzz—"

Lin Li’s thoughts were interrupted.

Because above the entire Shen Town Mansion, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened.

It was not clouds gathering, but as if an invisible giant hand forcibly tore open a pitch-black rift across the sky.

The depths of the rift, instead of void, featured violent and terrifying spatial turbulence raging and surging, dotting starlight being twisted and dragged, an indescribable terrifying oppression, like a tangible ancient divine mountain, suddenly descended.
