Chapter 1218 - 1216: We’ll Follow Your Lead
The Old Monster, seeing Cui Jinhao leave, did not pursue him, as he was also injured, and lacked the strength to detain the man. With no other choice, he could only let Cui Jinhao go. There was another reason: this was his territory, and he feared falling victim to a decoy strategy designed to draw him away.
After Cui Jinhao had left, the Old Monster returned to the vicinity of the villa, where Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei immediately gathered around him.
"Senior, this person is named Cui Jinhao, originally the heir of the Six Stars Group. It’s unknown how he has become so powerful now!" Ding Wan’er said to the Old Monster upon his return, quickly explaining Cui Jinhao’s identity, having sensed just how fierce the battle outside had been, indicating that Cui Jinhao was no ordinary person. She was truly puzzled as to how Cui Jinhao had suddenly become this formidable.
"It is indeed strange, but if Lin Feng were here, Cui Jinhao would be dead without a doubt!" Leng Mei also said with concern, not expecting that Cui Jinhao would now be capable of clashing with the Old Monster, a master of the Infinitesimal Realm. This indicated that Cui Jinhao’s strength was indeed extraordinary. However, no matter how powerful he was, it would be in vain if Lin Feng were here, as Cui Jinhao would not have been able to leave alive today.
Hearing the two women speak, the Old Monster nodded, thought briefly, and then said to them, "There have indeed been recent unusual changes in the heavens and earth, with very abnormal fluctuations in spiritual energy. When Lin Feng returns, mention this to him. For safety’s sake, both of you should stay inside for now, and no one else should leave either. We’ll discuss further when Lin Feng returns."
After speaking, the Old Monster left. He needed to find a quiet place to contemplate the recent events. He had already sensed the changes between heaven and earth and was beginning to suspect that the Immortal’s Relic Mansion off the coast might be about to open...
Elsewhere, Lin Feng, Xia Lalan, and the children, together with two Great Demon Kings, had left the Myriad Immortals Platform. At the strong insistence of the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon, the group flew away just as they had arrived, quickly reaching the Lost Forest.
"Boss, we’ve all left, but what about the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit?"
"How could I have forgotten about this? It is indeed a problem. What if that Female Immortal discovers it?"
As they passed by the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit, both Great Demon Kings stopped and asked Lin Feng. The Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit was a genuine celestial treasure; if they all left and it was taken by the Female Immortal, they would be filled with regret.
Upon hearing the Great Demon Kings’ words, Lin Feng also remembered the matter of the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit and thought for a moment before saying, "Let’s go down, I’ll set up a formation."
As the Great Demon Kings had mentioned, now that they had left, the Female Immortal might indeed discover the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit, and Lin Feng did not want it to fall into someone else’s hands. Since that was the case, it would be best to go down and set up a formation to prevent her from getting it.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the Great Demon Kings made no delay and landed next to the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit. They waited for Lin Feng and the children to get down, then shrunk in size and followed Lin Feng towards the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit, both curious about what formation Lin Feng planned to create to protect the divine fruit.
Lin Feng, aware of the Great Demon Kings following him, didn’t mind, as they were now part of his group. Upon entering the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit’s natural formation, he began setting up a new one—called the Thousand Illusion Sky Separating Formation. Its function was to isolate any perception, leaving outsiders oblivious to everything happening within, not only invisible to the eye but also undetectable to the senses.
As the area needing to be covered by the formation was small, Lin Feng quickly finished setting it up. The moment the formation was activated, the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit vanished completely from everyone’s sight. Even with Divine Sense, the Great Demon Kings could not detect it, startling them. They hadn’t expected Lin Feng’s formation to be so powerful, but then they smiled, pleased that the more formidable Lin Feng’s formations, the better. This way, they could be at ease.
"Let’s go." Seeing that the task was complete, Lin Feng spoke to the Great Demon Kings, signaling to leave.
The Great Demon Kings, having ensured the Myriad Spirits Immortal Fruit was well protected, hesitated no longer. They returned to their original sizes and lifted everyone into the air, speeding off like a streak of light following Lin Feng’s directions...
The Great Demon Kings were indeed swift, flying directly through the sky. With the immense pressure from the Great Demon Kings, no Flying Demon Beasts dared to obstruct them, allowing the group to smoothly reach the location Lin Feng had designated.
This place was the same location where Xia Lalan and the children had been last time. The Great Demon Kings descended from the sky and, upon Lin Feng’s signal, shrank in size. Then Lin Feng waved his hand, and a roar of Gang Qi charged towards the mysterious black stone.
"Boom!"
Just like the last time, the black stone did not shatter. A strong wave of energy fluctuated, and the air around trembled, quickly forming a ripple-like circular hole that expanded to more than ten zhang wide, astonishing the Great Demon Kings and leaving them agape with wonder.
Is this the way to leave the Hidden World?
How... how is this possible!
The two Great Demons gazed through the round hole and saw a scenery completely different from the Hidden World. They were truly shocked, never expecting that it could be so easy to go to the Secular World. They didn’t know when they appeared in the Hidden World; they had only heard cultivators talk about the existence of the Secular World and knew that it was very difficult to travel from the Hidden World to the Secular World. However, the method before their eyes seemed not difficult at all. How could it be so simple, unlike what those cultivators described!
But Xia Lalan and the children were not at all curious about this; they didn’t even wait for Lin Feng to speak before they passed through the gradually shrinking round hole, waiting on the other side for Lin Feng and the two Great Demons.
"What are you standing there for? Shrink your bodies; if you go out looking like that, you’ll scare the people," Lin Feng said indifferently to the two Great Demons. He understood their state of mind, of course, but he didn’t want to waste time on such trivial matters.
Hearing Lin Feng’s voice, the two Great Demons finally came to their senses and shrunk to the size of palms, perching on Lin Feng’s shoulder as they followed him out of the Hidden World.
Standing atop the mountain, the two Great Demons were still somewhat confused as they observed the unique landscape around them. Looking at Lin Feng, they couldn’t help but be driven by curiosity. In such a world where Spiritual Energy is so scarce, how had Lin Feng become a transcendent power of the Human Immortal Realm? This... this seemed completely impossible! In such a world, by all accounts, a Human Immortal Realm shouldn’t exist!
The two Great Demons were stunned. Xia Lalan chuckled and approached Lin Feng, asking, "Lin Feng, how shall we proceed?"
After speaking, she gave Lin Feng a look, suggesting something with her eyes. Although the two Great Demons had shrunk, their appearance hadn’t changed. If the ordinary people here saw them, it would surely arouse curiosity, and perhaps cause trouble, so this needed to be arranged in advance.
Lin Feng, of course, understood Xia Lalan’s meaning. After thinking for a moment, he said to Xia Lalan and the others, "Let’s do it this way; we’ll travel by night and stroll during the day. Consider it part of the children’s training along the way."
Lin Feng’s idea was simple. Now that the children were entering the world, they naturally needed to understand everything about the Secular World. Since there was no pressing business at the moment, why not take their time going back? Along the way, they could also let the children see the myriad states of secular humanity, which would be a form of experience for the children’s mental states.
After finishing his thoughts, he glanced at the two Great Demons before telling them, "We are now in the Secular World. Unless it’s a special situation, you two can’t revert to your original size. Moreover, if you encounter anyone, you must hide your form and not cause any trouble."
"Boss, no problem. Just arrange things; Old Black and I will certainly agree."
"We will follow your lead."
The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon and Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger, upon hearing Lin Feng’s arrangements, didn’t object to anything. They both understood this matter very well. Even reduced in size, their appearance was still rather frightening—who made them Demons incapable of changing into human form? Lin Feng’s arrangements were entirely appropriate.
Seeing that the two Demon Beasts had agreed, Lin Feng nodded, then turned and led the children through the forest...
Along the way, they all felt at ease. Nothing much happened during the day as they wandered and enjoyed themselves, but they did witness many beautiful scenes they had never seen in the Hidden World, which put them all in an exceptionally good mood. Moreover, they passed many villages, learned numerous strange tales from the villagers, and even helped many people in need, making Xia Lalan and the children very happy.
Before they knew it, several days had passed. The events of these few days had given the children a taste of life’s vicissitudes. The two Great Demons followed along with great curiosity about the Secular World, mostly remaining invisible at Lin Feng’s side.
As time always rushes by, without realizing it, Lin Feng and the group led by Xia Lalan and the children had nearly reached the seaside. The slightly fishy sea breeze carried with it the breath of the ocean, instantly delighting Xia Lalan and the children. Tianhai City was located by the sea; this meant that they should be close to Tianhai City!
While walking, they did not expect sudden rainfall. Xia Lalan and the children all used their Gang Qi Shield, and the rainwater could not even get near their clothes before being shaken off, making it seem as if they were wearing invisible raincoats.
However, the two Great Demons detested such lousy weather, directly using their Demon Energy to keep the rainwater at bay, their mood turning sour due to the rain. They were about to ask Lin Feng if they could quickly move out of the rain when Lin Feng’s voice reached them at that very moment.
