Chapter 791: Breaking Through “Limitless”

Meanwhile, he ceased the operation of the summoning magic, and a flash of light passed over the flying frost giant dragon before it vanished without a trace.

The situation before him had become quite clear; Lin Qiye no longer needed to use soul bearing to fight on the front lines, and there was no need to continue forcing himself.

Ultimately, soul bearing was merely a method to forcibly elevate one’s realm at the cost of soul damage; it was not his own power. The longer he used soul bearing, the greater the harm to himself.

Given the current extent of his soul damage, he would need at least half a year of recovery before he could attempt soul bearing again.

Lin Qiye’s head of white hair faded away, and the deep light in his eyes gradually disappeared. His complexion turned pale as paper, and he gently descended from the air, swaying unsteadily as he stood on a piece of shattered ice, nearly stumbling directly into the sea.

At that moment, a figure swiftly leaped to his side, supporting his body.

Lin Qiye turned his head and saw a deep blue robe stained with blood, along with a pair of eyes as clear as gemstones, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. “Thank you, Jialan.”

Behind Jialan, the other members of the [Nightfall] team also stepped forward. With the beast tide eliminated, they no longer needed to guard the front of the Deep Dragon Pass.

“No need to thank me.” Jialan linked arms with Lin Qiye, blinking with concern as she asked, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine, just a bit tired…”

Lin Qiye waved his hand, but as he took a step forward, a light sound emanated from within him, and he suddenly froze in place.

He looked down at his body, feeling the powerful and robust fluctuations of mental energy, a look of astonishment appearing in his eyes.

He… had broken through?

The sheer purity and immense total of mental energy he now sensed was worlds apart from his previous “Sea” realm.

If his previous mental energy total was like a vast ocean, then the mental energy he could now feel was akin to the combined waters of the four major oceans of Earth—almost infinite. Coupled with the increase in purity, Lin Qiye estimated that his current mental energy strength was about dozens of times that of when he was in the “Sea” realm.

This was…

Lin Qiye seemed to recall something, raising his gaze to the lush green grass at his feet, which was retreating like a tide, a look of realization dawning in his eyes.

It was the [Eternal Secret Garden].

The battlefield in front of the Deep Dragon Pass was the most brutal place for fighting against the beast tide. Although Lin Qiye’s mental energy was insufficient to cover the entire sea with the garden, the large area around him had already absorbed a significant number of “mysterious” corpses, including several of “Klein” level.

Even if the [Eternal Secret Garden] was stingy and gave him a small share, the accumulated life force and mental energy contained within was still an astronomical figure.

This allowed him to break through the threshold of the “Infinite” realm and even take a significant step forward.

Although Lin Qiye’s soul had suffered some damage in this battle, it had propelled his realm forward, making him the fourth member of the team to reach the “Infinite” realm.

“Hello, Captain Lin.”

In the distance, eight figures draped in golden cloaks approached, with the leading figure, Xia Simeng, smiling brightly at Lin Qiye and waving, “Why is it that every time I see you, it’s on such a chaotic battlefield?”

“Who are you…” Lin Qiye looked at Xia Simeng’s unfamiliar face and spoke weakly.

Xia Simeng’s expression stiffened, then as if recalling something, she said, “Oh right, when you met Cangnan, you were already out of your mind, so you don’t recognize me…”

She stepped forward, cleared her throat lightly, and extended her right hand with a smile, saying, “Hello, I’m Xia Simeng, the captain of the [Phoenix] team. We were the ones responsible for escorting you to the fasting place, and it was I who personally carried you back to the 136th team base during the Cangnan incident!”

Lin Qiye shook hands with Xia Simeng, offering an apologetic smile, “I see, sorry for the trouble.”

“What a pity, if we had met formally back then, we might have been companions by now…” Xia Simeng sighed regretfully, her gaze sweeping over the six people behind Lin Qiye. She continued with a smile, “But it’s fortunate we didn’t become companions; otherwise, the Great Xia would lack a highly potential special team.”

As the two spoke, the green light wrapped in chaotic mist had exploded all the “Klein” realm “mysteries” on the battlefield, changing direction in the air and flying towards the two teams.

The blue light gradually faded, and a figure draped in a dark red cloak slowly emerged.

Seeing that person, Xia Simeng raised an eyebrow and spoke with a hint of grievance, “Commander Zuo, if you had come any later, you might not have seen your brave and lovely subordinates again…”

Commander Zuo?

Hearing this name, the members of the [Nightfall] team were taken aback.

“I came from [Jialin Pass], and it took quite a bit of time on the way.” Zuo Qing glanced at her helplessly, “Also, stop with this act; if your [Phoenix] team could be easily taken down, you shouldn’t even call yourselves [Phoenix], you might as well change your name to [Dirt Chickens].”

Ignoring Xia Simeng’s resentful gaze, Zuo Qing turned to Lin Qiye and the others.

His gaze swept over each member of the [Nightfall] team, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Everyone, it’s been a long time…”

“Indeed, it has been a long time.” Lin Qiye glanced at the distant ruined steel pass and the rolling sea of blood beneath his feet, smiling bitterly, “It’s been two years since I returned; I… can hardly recognize this place.”

“Just some means to fend off external enemies. Once I send you a few documents to look over, you’ll understand.” Zuo Qing looked Lin Qiye up and down, unable to help but exclaim, “I’ve already been informed about what you all did in the ‘Human Circle’ over at the Shangxie Association…

I never expected that you guys would silently break through the ‘Human Circle’ and snatch the Shangxie Association’s meal ticket. You’ve really brought honor to us Night Watchers.”

Zuo Qing gave a thumbs up.

Lin Qiye smiled helplessly.

“Since you’ve returned, it’s time to head back to the capital.” Zuo Qing seemed to recall something and said.
