Chapter 296

Li Yi and Lin Yue drove back to Zhang Songlin's residence, but found that Professor Zhang Songlin hadn't returned after going out. The two made a wasted trip. There was no way, they had to move that golden coffin away, and then sent a text message to Professor Zhang.

After doing all this, the two immediately drove back along the original path, driving toward the direction of Tianchang City.

"It seems Professor Zhang is still helping those two Soul Realm experts deal with the fox demon matter, and looking at the situation, the progress of this matter is not very smooth." Li Yi said: "Otherwise, with Professor Zhang's strength, he should have handled the matter within an hour. Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with us, let's go back early."

Lin Yue nodded and said: "Also, we have more important things to do now."

As the vehicle drove out of the city and entered the highway, Li Yi also became vigilant. The road between the two cities was not peaceful. He had seen extraordinary creatures and mythical creatures appearing when he came before, but he was lucky not to have been attacked. He didn't want to encounter any danger when going back.

Fortunately, the road was considered safe, and they didn't encounter any danger, smoothly arriving at Tianchang City.

This also made the two breathe a slight sigh of relief.

One had to know that they were escorting a terrifying evil ghost in their car. If they encountered an attack halfway and were affected, leading to the golden coffin breaking and the evil ghost being released, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Li Yi didn't want to be dominated by the evil ghost again.

In the evening.

The two finally drove the car back to the downstairs of the Peace Financial Building.

Once the car stopped, Li Yi's first thing was to lift that golden coffin into the building, and then entered the room where his parents' medical pods were placed.

"This thing will be placed here for the time being. Although the things inside are dangerous, it is very stable as long as it is not destroyed. Before the safe house is built, this is the safest place." Li Yi carefully placed the golden coffin in a corner of the room.

At the same time, Li Yi also immediately checked his parents' medical pods.

Both medical pods were operating normally, with sufficient nutrient solution, and there were no problems. It was just that one of the medical pods was empty, and the one that was empty was the one his mother had been lying in.

The evil ghost was imprisoned, and his mother in the medical pod had disappeared strangely.

Li Yi's last fantasy was also pinched out. He stood blankly in place, looking at the empty medical pod for a long time, and his heart still felt bad.

Before, although his parents were silent, at least they were still there. In the future, perhaps there would be a chance to wake up, and in the future, maybe the family could be reunited. But now, everything was impossible.

"Mother died in the 36th world, father's soul crossed dimensions and went missing without returning. Six years of persistence exchanged for such a result, it is truly pathetic." Li Yi sighed helplessly.

However, after a brief emotion, he immediately cheered up again.

He hadn't completely lost hope. He still had a chance to find his missing father, and for his dead mother, perhaps there was a possibility of reversing life and death. He wanted to go back to the 36th world to ask that Yang Jian personally if there was any spiritual power that could change all this.

If he recognized his fate without doing anything, Li Yi would have recognized his fate six years ago, and wouldn't have carried it alone until now.

Coming from a bottom-level background, he had a tenacity like wild grass.

His belief became firm again.

Li Yi immediately started preparing to enter the Golden Academy. In these few days, he first organized a martial arts inheritance thoroughly, and at the same time, took time to guide Lin Yue's martial arts practice, and taught her a set of blade techniques. And he himself also worked hard to practice the Zhou Tian Energy and Hundred-Refined Energy in these few days.

As blood and energy were constantly transformed into energy, Li Yi's strength was constantly progressing.

And Lin Yue's progress was not small. Under Li Yi's guidance, plus the supply of sufficient nutrient solution and precious pills, her martial arts realm could be said to be advancing by leaps and bounds, easily crossing the first three realms of martial arts and arriving at the Bone Marrow Cultivation.

After arriving at the Bone Marrow Cultivation realm, Lin Yue couldn't speed up anymore and had to slowly temper herself, so she temporarily put down martial arts practice and turned to practicing blade techniques.

Lin Yue started learning from the most basic blade techniques, then quickly entered the door, and was now studying a blade technique called Listening Wind Blade.

This was a blade technique inheritance Li Yi snatched from the Jin family's master when he was in the Four Seas and Eight Continents. It wasn't particularly exquisite, but it had its merits, because there were better blade techniques in the Four Great Families. However, the Listening Wind Blade was very suitable for people like Lin Yue who had just entered martial arts to learn. After the foundation of the blade technique was honed, she would go to contact other blade techniques.

The two were busy for five days.

This day.

When Li Yi was meditating while unleashing the White Bone Contemplation cultivation technique, he suddenly felt that the energy field of the Mystic Object on his body, the incomplete coin, had changed. That familiar feeling appeared again.

"The remnant thought in the coin has awakened... This thing hasn't perished yet?" Li Yi's mind shifted slightly.

How long had it been since he went to the 36th world last time?

Three or four months, right?

During this period, the remnant thought in the incomplete coin had no movement. Didn't expect it to pop out again now.

"This remnant thought of mine hasn't dissipated yet. You kid, don't go to that world with thin cosmic energy next time, otherwise, I will really wither in the world. If I'm gone, you won't have a way to know the secret of cross-dimensional travel." The remnant thought in the coin softened its tone, seemingly really a bit afraid after being silent for so long this time.

"Since you are about to die, then hurry up and say it." Li Yi responded while practicing.

"No, no, we made a deal. You help me kill ten naturally evil Earth Prisoners, and I tell you the secret of cross-dimensional travel. Now you still owe me a few people who haven't been filled. This won't do. You've been lazy recently. With your killing speed, logically speaking, you shouldn't have only killed one person in such a long time." The remnant thought in the coin chattered.

"I will cross dimensions through other methods, no need to bother you. You'd better pick an auspicious day and die early, lest you affect me." Li Yi said calmly.

"You speak so viciously, but that's right, this is the way of the demonic path." The remnant thought in the coin said: "You don't want to know the secret of cross-dimensional travel, don't you want to know the secret of this incomplete coin? Aren't you curious why, as a Mystic Object, this coin can easily destroy other Mystic Objects?"

"If I ask, will you say?" Li Yi said.

"No." The remnant thought in the coin said.

Li Yi said: "That's it. If I ask, you won't say, then what am I asking for?"

"If you have a chance to find the other half of the coin, I can tell you the secret of the coin for free."

The remnant thought in the coin said: "But be fast. This remnant thought of mine can't hold on much longer and will disappear before long. By then, this secret will really be taken into the coffin by me, unless you give me a Nine-Turn Soul Pill, so I can continue to linger on."

"You are about to die, eating a Nine-Turn Soul Pill is also a waste. Just suck a few mouthfuls of cosmic energy to hang on. A wisp of remnant soul, disappearing is disappearing. Anyway, you've been dead for so many years, why bother holding on?" Li Yi said.

"Sigh, no Nine-Turn Soul Pill, then a Soul-Returning Pill will do." The remnant thought in the coin said.

"None, and even if I have it, I won't give it." Li Yi's attitude was very firm.

He had suffered a curse before. Without his knowledge, there was an evil ghost to restrict the remnant thought in the coin, making him dare not do anything to himself. But now, the evil ghost was imprisoned. If the remnant thought in the coin recovered, who knew if he would suddenly make a move on himself again.

Li Yi had suffered losses before.

"Didn't expect you to be so heartless, it's a pity I helped you before." The remnant thought in the coin sighed.

Li Yi said: "After I break through the Soul Realm, I can consider giving you a Soul-Returning Pill to nourish your remnant soul, but not now. It's not good to raise you too fat. Alright, go play on the side, don't disturb my cultivation."

"..." The remnant thought in the coin had an urge to scold people at this moment.

Sure enough.

Now he was already a qualified little demon, and couldn't take any advantage at all.

As time passed gradually...

But tonight, Tianchang City was not peaceful.

Outside the building, dark clouds were dense, thunder and lightning were across the sky, and at the same time, an indescribable haze began to permeate the city. The world seemed to be blocked at this moment, and an inexplicable sense of crisis shrouded the whole city, as if in the next moment, this city would be overturned in an instant. Such a strange scene made many cultivators in Tianchang City pay attention, and even Li Yi, who was in meditation, was forced to open his eyes and stop his cultivation.

"Li Yi, emergency event."

Lin Yue pushed the door open and walked into Li Yi's room hurriedly at this time. She was originally practicing martial arts and blade techniques downstairs, but a message from the Cultivator Association made her unable to calm down.

"Lin Jie, what happened? Is it the Heaven-Tilting Incident?" Li Yi asked immediately, but his gaze kept looking at the thunderclouds in the distant sky outside.

Vaguely, he saw a figure shuttling through the depths of the thunderclouds, flashing by, and a strong sense of unease appeared in his heart.

"It's not the Heaven-Tilting Incident. The Cultivator Association sent an emergency notice saying that just now in the danger zone, two mythical creatures started fighting, which is why the thunderclouds and haze were stirred up. Now it cannot be confirmed whether the fight between these two mythical creatures will affect the city." Lin Yue said.

"Two mythical creatures fighting?" Li Yi's expression changed slightly.

This was something that had never happened before.

Although there were many extraordinary creatures near Tianchang City, only one mythical creature had been detected. However, that mythical creature had always been very stable, staying in the depths of the danger zone, and had never appeared, only occasionally being photographed by satellites.

"Li Yi, you haven't slept yet? That's great, my cousin Zheng Gong called to find you."

At this time, Zheng Lan, wearing pajamas, also hurriedly took the elevator to the top floor. She was holding a mobile phone, which was displaying a call.

"Zheng Gong is an investigator; the information he gets is definitely more accurate than us external combat personnel." Lin Yue said.

Li Yi immediately took the phone: "Zheng Gong, it's me, Li Yi."

"Li Yi, you'd better take people to the basement to take refuge immediately. Two mythical creatures are fighting in the danger zone and may enter the city at any time. Also, don't try to leave Tianchang City. Our Investigation Bureau has already tried; that haze cannot be passed through. Once you enter it and are wrapped in thick fog, your body will melt into a pool of liquid, which is very terrifying."

"Alright, that's it, I still have to organize personnel for evacuation." Zheng Gong spoke very anxiously, and without waiting for Li Yi to respond, he hung up the phone after telling the important information.

Li Yi put down the phone and frowned: "Looking at this situation, the situation is getting worse and worse. Listen to Zheng Gong's advice and go to the basement to take refuge. In this scale of fighting and killing, evolvers of our level can only hide and listen to fate."

"I built an emergency shelter in the basement, which is very safe and stocked with various supplies." Zheng Lan said immediately.

"That's good." Li Yi nodded: "Lin Jie, send the message to others immediately, let others take refuge nearby."

"Alright." Lin Yue also notified others immediately.
