Chapter 793 738: Mental Drain, the Fearful Bai Lin
"So terrifying... so terrifying... I only want to research honestly..."
Bai Lin suddenly started breathing heavily, yet he was still too smart, instinctively sensing a sense of discord, uncontrollably driving his brain into a frenzy of reasoning.
He felt that in the history of this cosmos, there was a great terror.
He continued to ponder, recalling the presence in front of him with whom he discussed the Dao, calm in expression, gentle and serene, with the demeanor of a scholar, yet renowned as the man of the fist...
Suddenly, the more he thought, the more terrifying it became, and the more inexplicable it felt, as if this person had suddenly fallen into a winter cold pool, making his spine shiver.
Just like those monstrous talents in history, he had already sensed the anomaly!
The true Light Ancient God studied the Crystal Wall Reincarnation Technique, found Li Qing's background within the Crystal Wall, and realized the mastermind behind it all...
Then, he was immediately noticed by Li Qing, who quickly blocked the Newbie Village, directly killed him, and replaced him, using the Crystal Wall Reincarnation Dharma Method he developed to assume the identity of the next protagonist!
The Star Lord sensed the abnormality in the cosmos and attempted to resist the Light Ancient God. Ultimately, just before his death, Li Qing appeared in person, his emotions shifting rapidly, feeling both fear and joy, and even turning around to help Li Qing.
The Bai Lin before him, although still in the Newbie Village and quite naive, inexperienced, also sensed the contradiction within Nokron in his own domain.
Only.
Even though he had yet to grow, he was, after all, a genius.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not show it in his demeanor, keeping his face calm despite the intense trembling in his heart, still discussing the Dao with Nokron before him.
Engaging in a very usual discussion of the Three Thousand Great Path and researching the Godhead Chart, preparing for future Great Path fusion experiments.
"Let's call it a day here."
Finally, Bai Lin smiled faintly, seeing Nokron off.
And Li Qing also politely said goodbye, stood up to leave, and exited with the two maids at the door, returning to his own residence.
Bai Lin sent Nokron off, returned to his cave abode, activated the formation, and suddenly broke out in a sweat, his entire body going limp as if paralyzed.
He felt that he could no longer face Nokron directly!
"What should I do... I have great doubts in my heart, who should I ask for answers? And to whom... can I seek help?" He leaned against the door of his cave abode and gradually slumped down.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Sylvie suddenly watched as Nokron halted his steps and silently turned his head, "Your Majesty, have you left something behind with Mr. Bai Lin?"
"Nothing."
Li Qing calmly replied, sighing in his heart, and left with them.
...
...
Li Qing and the two women returned to the courtyard.
Sylvie served tea, bringing over hot dishes, while Sylph beside her massaged his shoulders, "Your Majesty, you've been quite exhausted lately, but once you get through this hurdle, you will surely become the Savior of this cosmic era's prophecy, defeat the Light Ancient God, and become the hero predicted by the senior Dream Garment."
"Though weary, it's nothing for the sake of the common good, and Elis and others have it worse, not being able to take a break for fifty million years." Despite the recent fatigue from his research days, Li Qing was living the life of a wealthy recluse.
After all, having a balance of work and rest is the righteous way.
Holding the teacup in his hand, he sat quietly on the reclining chair in the courtyard, his eyes suddenly deep and dark like an abyss.
"So he's already noticed."
On the monitor, watching Bai Lin's fearful demeanor at the moment, Li Qing's face remained unruffled.
Now, the cameras were divided into two types.
One was the street road surface surveillance cameras everywhere: Crystal Wall Cameras.
One was various kinds of Godhead implants installed inside the body: Godhead Cameras.
Of course, despite having the power to monitor the cosmos, Li Qing couldn't possibly watch all the time, as the computational consumption and the resulting terrifying data volume would be similar to getting swept away by integration with a Celestial Human, probably leading to dying multiple times per second.
He mainly monitored the people within his selection.
Once Bai Lin entered Li Qing's sight, he naturally came under 24-hour surveillance.
"It doesn't matter if he's noticed, I can continue to observe." Li Qing sipped his tea, calculating in his heart, "After all, once he's within my vision, he no longer has any chance of a comeback."
"I won't allow him to grow; only geniuses who haven't been discovered, developing secretly and forming a climate before I'm aware, can pose a threat to me."
In truth, Bai Lin still had his uses right now; the era needed his pioneering efforts.
He couldn't die yet.
Moreover, Li Qing didn't really want to make a move against him.
One had to admit that the sages of every era were quite charismatic.
"Let's watch further and see what choice he makes..." Li Qing's eyes were filled with a tinged amusement of playfulness.
...
...
A whole month.
Every day Nokron came to discuss the Dao, every day Bai Lin engaged in discussion together.
After all, a great battle was imminent, and disaster was approaching.
The atmosphere outside was getting increasingly tense, with prices of all sorts of pills and Godhead Dharma Artifacts rising two or threefold, showing the storm brewing, with even the low-level cultivators sensing the anomaly.
Netherworld Burial Ground.
Ancient Tree Rainbow Bridge.
The two large battlegrounds for training became increasingly frantic, seemingly conducting final military exercises.
This was the moment to decide victory or defeat.
"Let's call it a day here."
Nokron stood up, saying, "I hope you refine the final cultivation technique, and when the Reincarnation Technique completes all series of the Ninth Layer Godheads, I'll try to take that step."
"Indeed, we can't let the people's expectations down." Bai Lin smiled calmly.
After Li Qing left, he quietly returned to his cave abode, shut the door, his face growing paler.
"I can no longer face him directly."
"Every time I see the other side, there's pressure..."
These days, he felt a weight pressing on his heart every day, thinking about it day and night, with his nerves wearing thin and consuming his mental energy within himself.
Feeling like he didn't need to do anything at all, he was about to collapse.
And Bai Lin knew that unless he vented this pressure, he couldn't continue like this.
"Even if there might be a problem... it's better than doing nothing... I need to find someone." Bai Lin's face showed some struggle but ultimately displayed a trace of determination.
He was isolated and alone, living in the Netherworld, with only one obvious person he could turn to for help.
Soon enough.
He tidied up his appearance, organized his forlorn demeanor, entered the Netherworld Divine Hall, subtly signaling Elis to dismiss her trusted aides, including Professor Wales.
"What do you need me for?"
Sitting on the Life Throne, Elis, the Life Nether Emperor, showed a trace of surprise, "Is there something you can't say? Wales is trustworthy, he's not an outsider."
"It's indeed a matter of great importance." Bai Lin took a deep breath, finally organized his thoughts, and slowly revealed, "There's something wrong with Nokron, he's definitely not human... his origin is terrifying, he may very well be a Celestial."
