Chapter 1338 - 1336: A Bizarre World
Lin Feng looked at the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast and nodded slightly. He could sense that it wasn’t merely trying to appease him with its words, which put his mind at ease. However, he suddenly remembered something and opened his mouth to say to the beast, "I’m not asking you to stay here forever. I just want you to stop harming humans, that’s all. Also, I’m giving you a task: if you discover any evil cultivators or demon beasts harming humans in this sea region, eliminate them immediately. With your strength, this shouldn’t be hard to accomplish. If you succeed, I might consider giving you a Jade Heart Pill. Otherwise, your fate will be just one word—death!"
"Ah... Are... Are you serious? You’ll actually give me a Jade Heart Pill?" The Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast was stunned upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. It had never expected Lin Feng to offer it a Jade Heart Pill. It knew that the Jade Heart Pill was no ordinary elixir; it assisted in breakthroughs and could keep one’s mind steady during the process, greatly increasing the chances of success. Lin Feng offering such a miraculous pill was simply unimaginable to the beast!
"You didn’t hear wrong—it’s indeed a Jade Heart Pill! Furthermore, let me tell you, I am an alchemist capable of crafting Jade Heart Pills. Do you understand my meaning now?" Lin Feng said casually while looking at the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast. He no longer felt any animosity toward the beast, especially since he had already taken so many valuable items from it. Killing it now would seem excessive. Besides, this was a good opportunity to entrust the protection of the sea region to the beast. With its strength, no evil cultivator would stand a chance against it.
"I will do whatever you command with all my effort. Please rest assured." The Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast quickly pledged its allegiance again while looking at Lin Feng. It understood that Lin Feng was a true super powerhouse. If it followed Lin Feng’s instructions, it could live longer; moreover, the reward of a Jade Heart Pill was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that it couldn’t miss.
"Very well. I’ll leave now. Remember what you said earlier. When all of this is over, head to the sea surrounding Tianhai City. If I’m there, I’ll certainly show up." Lin Feng added another sentence while looking at the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast. Having given all necessary instructions, he was confident the beast knew what to do next.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast was overjoyed. Lin Feng’s promise meant it could eventually obtain the Jade Heart Pill in Tianhai. Just thinking about this made it so excited that it completely forgot about its injuries. It exclaimed happily, "I will! Absolutely! I will definitely go!"
Seeing that arrangements with the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast were complete, Lin Feng casually tossed it a pill before disappearing into the distance. After Lin Feng left, the beast took a closer look at the pill he had given it. When it saw what it was, it was completely dumbfounded...
"Supreme Lifespan Pill..."
Looking at the pill in front of it, the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast’s heart was flooded with shock and disbelief. This pill was no ordinary elixir—it was a lifespan-extending pill crafted by a Profound Grade alchemist, and not just any—this was the supreme version! It couldn’t help but wonder about Lin Feng’s rank as an alchemist. Several thousand years ago, Profound Grade alchemists were undoubtedly elderly, yet Lin Feng—a young man—was a Profound Grade alchemist? This... this was simply beyond belief!
Setting aside its astonishment at Lin Feng, the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast immediately consumed the miraculous Supreme Lifespan Pill to heal itself. Within moments, blue demon energy surged, and the beast’s wounds began to seal themselves. The effects of the pill were nothing short of exceptional.
"Lin Feng, you’ve finally returned."
Xia Lalan had been anxiously waiting on the shore when Lin Feng suddenly appeared by her side, causing a smile to spread across her face. She hadn’t even been worried earlier—Lin Feng was no ordinary Human Immortal Realm powerhouse. Facing off against demon beasts, even those who had yet to take a humanoid form, was nothing Lin Feng couldn’t handle.
However, being alone felt dull and boring to her. If her cultivation level were higher, she would have undoubtedly accompanied Lin Feng into the sea. But for now, such thoughts could only remain as fantasies.
"Let’s head back. There’s nothing to worry about here anymore." Lin Feng said with a smile as he looked at Xia Lalan.
"Back? Back to Tianhai? But what about everything here?" Xia Lalan froze in confusion upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. She couldn’t fathom his intentions and immediately asked a series of questions, genuinely wanting to understand what Lin Feng meant.
"Back to Tianhai. The situation here doesn’t require our attention anymore." Lin Feng smiled and clarified. He understood why Xia Lalan was asking, but there was truly nothing left for them to handle here, so returning to Tianhai was the logical choice.
"Lin Feng, what’s going on? The demon beasts and those evil cultivators wreaking havoc—are we just going to ignore them?" Xia Lalan was even more baffled after hearing Lin Feng’s response. She inwardly thought their entire trip had been to eliminate demon beasts and evil cultivators harming innocents. Why were they suddenly leaving? What was going on?
"Did you forget about that Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast? I’ve entrusted it with dealing with these matters. Given its strength, taking care of all this will be a simple task," Lin Feng explained with a smile, hoping Xia Lalan would understand his reasoning and join him in returning to Tianhai.
"Oh, so that’s it... Let’s go then." Hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, Xia Lalan finally realized that Lin Feng had subdued the Azure Sea Golden-Eyed Beast earlier. With that beast handling the sea region’s affairs, there should be no problems. Her heart settled, and she signaled Lin Feng to lead her back to Tianhai. After all, Tianhai was the foundation.
Satisfied that Xia Lalan agreed, Lin Feng nodded, took her hand, and the two soared into the sky, disappearing into the horizon...
When Lin Feng and Xia Lalan returned to Tianhai, the city had already regained its former splendor, as if the previous chaos had never occurred. Xia Lalan was deeply moved by this sight—this was the secular world. If these events had happened in the Hidden World, such a quick recovery would have been impossible.
The two made their way directly to the villa in Tianhai, where they found Zhu Tao, the Old Monster, and the others had successfully completed their tasks. Looking at the children, who had made significant progress in their cultivation over the past few days, both Lin Feng and Xia Lalan felt immense joy. Amid this happiness, Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei emerged from the villa and immediately surrounded Xia Lalan.
"Lanlan, how was your trip with Lin Feng?"
"It... it was fine..."
"Lanlan... Lin Feng didn’t mistreat you, did he?"
"No..."
...
Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei seemed to have made it their mission to tease Lin Feng, continuously asking Xia Lalan questions that caused her face to flush red. Eventually, Xia Lalan could only bury her head in her chest, her cheeks blazing as if she were on fire...
Lin Feng initially wanted to say something but quickly recognized the sly looks Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei were throwing his way. Realizing their intentions, he shook his head helplessly, leaving them to tease Xia Lalan while heading off to discuss related matters with the Old Monster and others.
Before they knew it, night had fallen. After a simple dinner, Lin Feng unexpectedly gathered everyone together and handed each of them a unique-looking jade stone. Holding the jade stones, no one could understand what Lin Feng intended.
"These are Symbol Jades that I’ve crafted. If you channel Gang Qi into them, you’ll understand what they’re for." Lin Feng said plainly as he faced their confused gazes.
Following Lin Feng’s instructions, everyone quickly infused their jade stones with Gang Qi. What happened next shocked them—they suddenly found themselves in a strange world. Mountains, rivers, exotic birds, and alien beasts surrounded them. A bamboo house stood resolutely in the distance. Everyone was taken aback, unsure of what was happening.
"Lin Feng, this... what is this place?" Ding Wan’er was the first to speak up, eager to understand this bewildering situation. The sights before her defied all comprehension. She couldn’t comprehend what Lin Feng had done to create such a place.
Upon her question, everyone else turned their eyes to Lin Feng, wanting to know what this place was.
Seeing their puzzled expressions, Lin Feng explained, "This is a small world I’ve built, and I’ve named it Spirit Realm. The Symbol Jade you hold is the key to entering this small world. With this place, absorbing large amounts of spiritual energy won’t be a problem."
What!
A small world?
Spirit Realm...
...
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, everyone froze in amazement. While they knew Lin Feng had built a small world, none of them had set foot in it before. Now that they were experiencing it firsthand, they were awestruck. Words could not describe what they saw. Even Zhu Tao, who had previously visited the Hidden World, was stunned. Lin Feng’s small world outclassed the Hidden World by far, with spiritual energy concentrations many times greater. This small world was simply too extraordinary...
Noticing the group still in awe, Lin Feng chuckled lightly before continuing, "Soon, Lanlan and I will return to the Hidden World. The safety of the secular world will be left to you. If you encounter any particularly dangerous situations, enter Spirit Realm immediately to ensure your safety. As for the villa outside, it’s fine to abandon guarding it. You can use it for work, cultivation, or a retreat in times of danger. Otherwise, you can come here."
This had been Lin Feng’s plan all along. He had initially intended to let his companions cultivate in his small world, but various events had delayed him. Now that the small world had developed, and after recent events that made Lin Feng fear for his companions’ safety, he wasted no time bringing them into Spirit Realm. He wanted them to know there was a safe haven they could rely on in times of need.
