Chapter 1361 Taixu Lake
“Are you sure?”
Lin Feng frowned deeply.
As far as he knew,
All five immortal cultivation sites were traps,
Whether it was the mountain spirit of Burial Sword Mountain or the blue-robed woman of Ancient Void, they all had developed self-awareness and would slaughter all cultivators who tried to comprehend them, devouring their flesh, blood, and cultivation fruits.
It was simply impossible for anyone to comprehend the essence of immortal cultivation, let alone become an immortal through it!
“It should be true! Taixu Lake, as one of the five immortal cultivation sites, has always attracted many cultivators!”
“This time someone succeeded in comprehension, triggering terrifying celestial phenomena that many cultivators witnessed firsthand… it was a white-robed young man, handsome and elegant, seemingly quite young!”
Gu Yuan said solemnly.
Even now, his emotions remained unsettled, his breathing slightly labored, his speech hurried!
Someone had become an immortal!
What concept was this?
It was simply unimaginable that in this post-modern era, before the immortal path had even opened, someone had already taken the lead!
“How could someone become an immortal prematurely?”
Master Qingyun’s expression shifted uncertainly.
“Dong!”
At this moment,
The Lotus Empress also arrived after hearing the news!
After that battle, Lin Feng had returned the inner core to her. After three months of recovery, the Lotus Empress had grown increasingly cold and distant, without her previous enthusiasm toward Lin Feng, like an ice mountain!
Besides this,
Her aura had become increasingly powerful and unfathomable. As she approached, the void produced rippling waves, and it seemed as if all the laws of heaven and earth made way for her!
Lin Feng looked at the Lotus Empress, his gaze somewhat dazed.
Whenever he saw this woman,
He would instinctively think of her as the Holy Maiden of Yaoguang.
A month ago,
He had engaged in a deep conversation with the Lotus Empress, mentioning the egg in the Dao Palace, the possibility of the Human Emperor’s rebirth, and also touching upon the Holy Maiden of Yaoguang.
He had asked the Lotus Empress,
Was the Holy Maiden of Yaoguang still alive?
But the answer he received was ambiguous.
“She and I are the same person. She is my current life… me in a confused state!”
This was the Empress’s response!
Thinking of this, Lin Feng took a deep breath, stepped forward with a smile and said:
“Empress, what do you think of this matter?”
“If someone has truly become an immortal, that might not be a bad thing for us. What’s frightening is if this is just a trap, a scheme to lure cultivators from all over the world!”
The Lotus Empress’s words made one’s heart skip a beat.
“What do you mean?”
Gu Yuan’s pupils contracted slightly.
“Perhaps those few immortals have grown impatient and want to trigger the catastrophe early… or perhaps someone has truly glimpsed the immortal path and become an immortal! Both are possible, but we must see it with our own eyes!”
The Lotus Empress replied.
Hearing these words,
Lin Feng’s gaze flickered slightly!
After three months without leaving the mountain, it was indeed time to go out!
He thought for a moment, then said:
“There’s something strange about the Taixu Lake incident. I’ll go alone first to observe secretly, you all should stay here for now!”
“I wasn’t planning to go anyway.”
The Lotus Empress glanced at Lin Feng, then turned and walked away with graceful steps.
Seeing this,
Both Gu Yuan and Master Qingyun revealed strange expressions.
“Brother Lin, what did you two do alone in that room that night? I noticed she was quite enthusiastic about you before, but now she’s suddenly changed like this.”
Gu Yuan lowered his voice.
“What do you think we could have done? We just talked, that’s all.”
Lin Feng smiled bitterly.
Hearing this, Gu Yuan’s mouth twitched, clearly not believing it!
A man and woman, alone in a room, staying together all night, and they just talked? Who would believe that?
“By the way! Where is Fire Spirit?”
Lin Feng changed the subject.
At these words,
Both Master Qingyun and Gu Yuan sighed.
Fire Miaomiao’s death had hit Fire Spirit the hardest.
Over these three months, they had witnessed Fire Spirit’s transformation from despair to desperate cultivation.
The sight of him cultivating desperately at all costs made the two old seniors somewhat fearful!
“Go see for yourself and you’ll understand.”
Master Qingyun said.
Lin Feng fell silent for a moment upon hearing this.
He got up and went to Fire Spirit’s residence, where he saw Fire Spirit using immortal spirit fire to severely burn his own flesh. Blood and flesh melted, then healed with great medicine, only to be burned again – tempering himself like steel, refining to the extreme!
Fire Spirit was too harsh on himself!
In extreme pain, he tortured himself beyond recognition.
He wanted to forge a new path, forcibly condensing an immortal body.
Lin Feng watched for a while but didn’t disturb him, choosing instead to silently leave for Taixu Lake.
But at this moment,
Fire Spirit turned around, his hollow eyes showing not a hint of color, and said to Lin Feng’s retreating figure:
“My sister died for you, yet shortly after her death, you spent the night with another woman! Was it because my sister was too weak, and you looked down on her?”
“No!”
Lin Feng’s footsteps faltered.
“If not, then I hope you can give her a proper status. From childhood, she was the treasure of our Fire God Clan, but since meeting you, she has suffered all the hardships of the mortal world!”
Hollow tears streamed down Fire Spirit’s empty eyes as he continued:
“Actually, at the beginning, neither my father nor I wanted my sister to get involved with you, thinking you were too dangerous! But my sister wouldn’t listen…”
“She always spoke well of you, saying you would definitely become an immortal someday, saying that all of us would enjoy good fortune by following you…”
Hearing this,
Lin Feng couldn’t help but clench his fists.
“Lin Feng, my sister suffered too much! She’s dead now, and I only ask you, can you give her a proper status?”
Fire Spirit’s voice was hoarse.
“What’s the point of talking about this now?”
Lin Feng smiled bitterly.
Then,
Under Fire Spirit’s dim gaze, he quickly disappeared into the horizon.
“Hehe… sister! You were so foolish!”
Blood seeped from the corner of Fire Spirit’s mouth, his handsome face instantly contorting:
“Brother will definitely avenge you, no one else can be relied upon, but brother will not let you down!”
Fire Spirit wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth,
Took one last look at the place he had stayed for three months, and left with a wooden expression.
An hour later,
Lin Feng arrived alone near Taixu Lake.
Taixu Lake was called a lake, but it was more like a black sea, boundless, with rolling waves. The black water was like ink, as if concealing some terrible beast within. Just standing on the shore made one’s heart palpitate.
And now,
Countless huge ships were docked at the shore.
“Splash splash~”
Ships loaded with cultivators frequently sailed toward the depths of Taixu Lake!
