Chapter 1652 - 1635: Quiet Down
"What happened with the people of the Holy Soul Sect? Take your time to explain, no need to rush." Lin Feng was momentarily stunned when he heard Xia Yunfeng’s words. He then signaled Xia Yunfeng to explain the situation carefully. During the days that Meng Zhu was away, he was helping those around him to improve their strength. He didn’t expect such chaos to erupt on the other side of the New World. Lin Feng was quite puzzled about how the other side managed to come over. It seemed that when he left, no special weak points in space were discovered there.
"Mr. Lin, it’s like this: a few days ago, these people from the Holy Soul Sect suddenly appeared, coercing many forces into surrendering to them under the name of the Holy Soul Sect. Our Xia Family just learned about this. The Family Head believes their ultimate goal might be to assist in opening the space passage, so he sent me over to find you urgently."
Xia Yunfeng immediately explained. The situation could not be delayed, and he understood just how severe things were now. If any space passages were indeed opened, not only the Xia Family but the entire Earth would be doomed.
"Hmm, let’s go have a look first." Lin Feng slightly frowned upon hearing Xia Yunfeng’s words. Saying anything was futile at the moment; the most urgent thing was to go over and have a look, only then would he know what arrangements to make next.
After saying that, he immediately signaled Xia Yuntian to leave with him. The two quickly boarded an invisible aircraft and flew towards the New World. On the plane, Lin Feng learned about some developments in the New World from Xia Yunfeng and also sent messages to all the women, including Ding Wan’er, explaining that he had things to handle in the New World to avoid worries.
The speed of the invisible aircraft was fast. An hour later, Lin Feng and Xia Yunfeng had re-entered the New World. Just as Lin Feng set foot in the New World, his eyebrows suddenly twitched a few times, for he had already sensed several space fluctuation points within this New World. Although it was only a vague feeling, Lin Feng was certain that there was indeed a problem with the space in the New World.
"Let’s go!"
Seeing this situation, Lin Feng became genuinely anxious. A flying Dharma Treasure appeared in his hand, and he then pulled Xia Yunfeng along. The two turned into a streak of white light and flew toward the Xia Family’s direction at an indescribably fast speed.
Just over an hour later, Lin Feng appeared at the Xia Family’s camp. Upon seeing Lin Feng’s arrival, Xia Yuntian and Song Wuya, who had been waiting, were about to greet him. But before they could say anything, Lin Feng spoke up first: "Summon all factions immediately; I have matters to arrange."
Lin Feng was indeed anxious at this moment. With the space showing signs of instability, he didn’t know how bad it had become. To avoid irreversible consequences, he had to discuss it with all the cultivators.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, Xia Yuntian made no delays and immediately sent people to notify the camps of the various factions. After arranging these matters, he asked Lin Feng, "Mr. Lin, is the situation now very bad?"
Xia Yuntian was genuinely anxious about this matter. He never expected the other side to harbor such intentions, aiming at the New World. Now that Lin Feng had arrived and made such arrangements, it clearly indicated that the situation was very severe, otherwise Lin Feng wouldn’t have this attitude.
Song Wuya, on the other hand, remained silent at the moment, listening by the side. He wanted to know to what extent this matter had developed. If it was indeed dire, he was considering whether to bring over the ancestor stationed in the Hidden World, as the ancestor had reached the Human Immortal Realm and could help them deal with the adversaries.
"I don’t know the exact details, but I can confirm one thing—there are now several unstable space fluctuation points in this New World. If measures aren’t taken quickly, I’m afraid the Immortal Realm over there will really open the space passage."
Lin Feng said, frowning, that on the way here, he had already encountered three unstable space fluctuation points. Undoubtedly, there must be such space fluctuation points in other places as well. This situation arose suddenly, and he hadn’t anticipated such a change.
"Ah! Is that really the case... What should we do?" Xia Yuntian and Song Wuya exclaimed in unison upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. They were truly panicking now. According to Lin Feng, it seemed that this world could connect with a space passage at any moment, and once that happened, everyone would likely be in great danger.
"Let’s wait for the others to arrive first. Neither of the two factions can handle this event alone; it requires everyone to work together." Lin Feng waved his hand at the anxious pair, indicating them to sit anywhere, and he also found a seat and closed his eyes. He was contemplating possible approaches to handle this issue quickly, especially the individuals who had entered the New World—they needed to be eliminated swiftly. Otherwise, they would continue causing trouble.
Seeing Lin Feng close his eyes, Xia Yuntian and Song Wuya refrained from speaking further, feeling anxious on the side...
A day later, the Family Heads or representatives of all factions had arrived. Given Lin Feng’s current strength, they had no choice but to show up. Once everyone had gathered, Xia Yuntian went over to find Lin Feng.
Seeing the hundreds of people chatting and buzzing in front of him, Lin Feng slightly frowned and spoke, "Silence."
Though his voice wasn’t loud, everyone heard it clearly. Upon seeing Lin Feng appear, they all stopped their previous discussions and focused their gaze on him.
"I gathered you here to inform you of an important matter. Some parts of this New World have become spatially unstable. If not addressed quickly, the Immortal Realm might soon open a space passage. This matter is of great significance. I need the strength of all of you to seal off this New World; only then can we truly solve the problem."
Looking at the crowd below, Lin Feng revealed his thoughts. Over the past day, after much reflection, he devised the best possible solution. It was the only way to resolve the issue completely. Even if the space passage were opened, the Immortal Realm would still be unable to access Earth’s mortal world. This was the only and best method.
The reason Lin Feng required the collective strength to seal the New World was due to its vastness. On his own and with a few others, he couldn’t accomplish it. Only by harnessing the power of all cultivators on Earth did it become feasible. However, he wasn’t entirely confident of success, so he could only present it this way.
Lin Feng’s words left the present individuals stunned. None had anticipated Lin Feng making such a proposition. If the New World were sealed, how would they cultivate in the future? Such a wonderful place would be wasted—they were truly reluctant to accept it.
"Mr. Lin, I think it’s better not to seal this New World. As for the spatially unstable places, can’t you just seal them off? There’s no need to seal the entire New World, is there?" an unknown minor Family Head stood up, expressing his opinion.
"That’s right, Mr. Lin, didn’t you promise us earlier that we could enhance our strength in the New World? Now you’re saying you want to seal it—how are we supposed to cultivate?"
"Mr. Lin, I think you don’t need to do this. We all desire cultivation; there must be other ways, right?"
"Mr. Lin, frankly speaking, I really oppose this. There’s no necessity to seal the New World!"
...
This minor Family Head’s words immediately triggered countless objections from below. Many of them had already surrendered to Xiao Di, so naturally, they spoke up for Xiao Di at this moment. There was no way they would agree to Lin Feng sealing the entire New World. If that were to happen, they would lose such an excellent place for cultivation. Moreover, if Xiao Di and his allies learned of their defiance, they might be killed outright. In this situation, nearly all of them stood up.
However, these individuals’ disagreement didn’t represent everyone’s stance. Forces led by Xia Yuntian, supporting Lin Feng, stepped forward at this moment.
"Our Xia Family firmly supports all of Mr. Lin’s decisions. The Immortal Realm harbors ill intent towards us; thus, we must preemptively eliminate all threats to prevent them from opening the space passage." Xia Yuntian spoke righteously. Although sealing the New World meant losing an exceptional place for cultivation, he would rather lose it than allow the Immortal Realm to connect with them. The painstaking efforts of the Immortal Realm to reach Earth would undoubtedly spell disaster for a powerless Earth, so he fully supported Lin Feng.
"Our Song Family also firmly supports Mr. Lin’s decision." Song Wuya stepped forward. Like Xia Yuntian, he, too, trusted Lin Feng’s decision. When facing major issues, he had a clear perspective.
"Our Lei Family obeys Mr. Lin’s decision."
"Mr. Lin, we’ll follow however you dictate for our He Family."
"Mr. Lin, we support you."
...
Other supporters of Lin Feng emerged to express their stance. Although they were unwilling to lose the New World, they understood the consequences of not taking this action. They genuinely didn’t wish for the entire Earth to experience an unprecedented disaster.
After these people had expressed their views, those who opposed it reacted strongly, refusing to give in. Unable to oppose it could mean death, while opposing it might mean survival. They figured if Lin Feng wanted to pursue such a course of action, he’d have done so long ago.
