Lamp in Life_1 “There’s no sign of her, just like before, as if she’s completely vanished.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t find it surprising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the world of cultivators, time is the least valuable thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Immortal Domain is so vast, if one does not use a teleportation formation, traveling from the eastern to the western edge of the Heavenly Mystery Continent could take half a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sky Path Alliance Master is waiting for someone from the high-ranked Immortal realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the long journey, there may also be other tasks to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spending some time in closed-door cultivation or comprehending new insights could take several years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen stayed with Yao Xuanji for two days, then prepared to head to the Dragon Spirit Continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Yuqi and Fan Cuihong wanted to accompany him, but Lin Chen refused, asking them to stay safely in the Immortal Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enemies Lin Chen is dealing with now are usually very strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Immortals don’t need to run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who need to run are surely of Fairy strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To a Fairy, killing Liu Yuqi and Fan Cuihong would be as easy as crushing an insect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s easy for Lin Chen to elude by himself, but if he brings them along, they would potentially slow him down when fleeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he chose not to bring them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even refused Yao Xuanji, a Fairy in her own right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would he even consider bringing along a True Immortal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Chen, have you ever lit a Longevity Lamp before?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen shook his head: “No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji stared at Lin Chen: “Why don’t you light a Longevity Lamp in the Immortal Palace?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although I believe that you will be fine, having that lamp lit here would give me peace of mind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen turned to look at Yao Xuanji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She bit her lip, a touch of red appeared on her face, but this time, she didn’t look away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared directly at Lin Chen, eyes pleading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sigh passed through Lin Chen’s heart: “Alright!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Longevity Lamp is created by infusing a piece of one’s soul into a lamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the person is alive and the piece of the soul isn’t destroyed, the lamp will not go out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if the person dies, the piece of soul will sense it, and the lamp will also extinguish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is what people commonly refer to as “when a person dies, the lamp dies”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji was obviously very worried about him and didn’t want to endure the anxiety of not being able to confirm the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By lighting a lamp, as long as she sees the lamp lit, she would know that he is fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter where he is, as long as he is fine, she would be at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Longevity Lamp is usually kept in the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the Barren Wilderness era, his entire sect only consisted of five people, so there was no such practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he joined the White Crane Immortal Sect, although the sect has such a practice, because of his unique status and his short stay in the sect, he has yet to light a Longevity Lamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, his first ever Longevity Lamp would be placed in the Immortal Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting up the Longevity Lamp isn’t complicated, as it is a refined magical artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All it required was for one to prick their finger and drop some blood into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen picked up the Longevity Lamp and pressed his finger onto a needle in the center of the lamp, looking like the stamen of a flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fresh blood flowed down the needle, and a white light illuminated the Longevity Lamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly retracting his hand, Yao Xuanji lit the Longevity Lamp, and Lin Chen felt a mysterious connection between himself and the lamp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should this lamp be placed in the Eternal Life Hall?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Eternal Life Hall is where all the Longevity Lamps of the Immortal Palace congregation are placed, with palace guards specially assigned to stand watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji shook her head: “I’ll keep it here, it makes me feel safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen was slightly taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This study room was Yao Xuanji’s personal living quarters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for when she was sleeping or handling affairs in the main hall, she spent most of her time here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did she intend to keep an eye on him at all times?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keeping it here, it seems a bit…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>lonely…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji shook her head: “I am here, how could it be lonely?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this place is the most heavily guarded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, I can’t just run to the Eternal Life Hall day and night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though there are people guarding it, it’s more reassuring to watch over it myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen was silent for a few seconds, then softly said: “You really care about me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji gently turned her head, looking at the lamp: “I never had many friends to begin with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After being harmed by Weijiao and suppressed for ten thousand years, the world has changed dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After getting to know you, you are now my only friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You are helping me against the Sky Path Alliance, standing on the same boat as me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course I care about your safety.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen replied, then added after thinking for a moment: “No matter who the opponent is, give me some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as I don’t die, I will trample them all underfoot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They won’t be able to harm you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light in Yao Xuanji’s eyes trembled; deeply moved, as though something had touched the softest part of her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned her head to look at Lin Chen, finally unable to suppress the emotions in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking a step forward, she reached out and hugged Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen’s body stiffened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected her to initiate a hug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to say something, but Yao Xuanji had already buried her face in his chest: “Don’t say anything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen’s words halted at his throat, forcibly swallowed back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hold me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji’s voice was barely a whisper, seemingly as soft as a mosquito’s hum, her face flushed crimson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen lifted his hand to gently hold Yao Xuanji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Xuanji’s body tensed up, incredibly nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was scared that Lin Chen would reject her and that he would say something she didn’t want to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Chen only held her gently and didn’t say a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, Yao Xuanji relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lin Chen’s warm embrace, her body softened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them stood there silently, embracing each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Yao Xuanji gathered her courage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lifting her head, she closed her eyes and tiptoed…\u003C\u002Fp>",1133,"2026-06-06T01:52:14.914Z",1,"novelbin.me","bde71437f77c79e9c02e1cca244aa15be41e915f5ce10efe461bb18989ed443f","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-1762","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-1760",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
