Chapter 1958 417: High Immortal Fifth Realm
"I told you not to bring him, but you wouldn't listen. Now look, it's all for nothing!"
Princess Qingyan vented her anger on the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom, not fearing to offend his majesty.
"What's the use of blaming this and that now? It's all in the past, just let it go."
The Emperor of Beitun Kingdom swallowed his anger, unwilling to argue with Princess Qingyan.
Moreover, he hadn't anticipated that the Heart Moon Fox would ultimately fall into Lin Yifan's hands.
Now he began to believe in Princess Qingyan's superstitious talk; that kid really had a special ability to stealth Constellations Beads, and precautions must be taken in the future.
Princess Qingyan didn't want to speak; she'd regretted it anyway.
Reaching the edge of the world at Snow Moon Mountain, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom took out the Void Breaking Furnace, casting spells to dissolve illusions.
"Whoosh!" And they promptly left this world.
Immortal Bai Ruo sighed to himself.
There was an excellent opportunity to receive guidance from the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor, now it's all for naught.
Days after they left, within the Seven-Colored Immortal Ring, Lin Yifan suddenly felt the ring regain its freedom.
It was good news for him; it also suggested that the curse at the bottom of the lake might have been cleared.
To verify his suspicion, he secretly left the Immortal Ring to observe the lake bottom.
Here, he couldn't see the black curse; furthermore, even the fierce void creatures were gone, seemingly vanished.
This was not a place to linger; without the curse causing chaos, he quickly exerted his mana and charged upward fiercely.
"Whoosh!"
With powerful mana supporting him, he shot upwards through Snow Moon Lake like a bullet.
After a long time, he finally reached the surface, bursting out.
"Boom!"
A column of water shot skyward, breaking through the water like a missile, incredibly formidable.
Lin Yifan quickly found a place to rest.
"Huff huff!"
"Huff huff!"
Large gusts of air spewed from his mouth, his heart pounding more fiercely than a startled deer. This escape journey drained all his energy; he was utterly exhausted.
Snow Moon Lake was so deep, deeper than a ten-thousand fathom abyss, no wonder he could see void creatures outside the Realm of Longevity.
He felt Snow Moon Lake spanned the entire Tai Chi Continent, protected by a boundary wall.
This place might become the first entry point for void creatures, because the boundary wall appeared weak, unable to withstand their onslaught.
Time left for the Realm of Longevity was scarce; he hoped to find An Qi in the limited time, reach the Immortal Emperor Realm, and take An Qi away from here.
...
After taking several pills to recover energy, he began searching for Immortal Bai Ruo and the others.
When checking the other three marked locations, he found them long deserted, no longer existing.
This was within Lin Yifan's expectations, as the group believed he couldn't survive seven days after being attacked by ominous creatures, so they left.
The main reason Lin Yifan wanted to find these people was to borrow the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom's Void Breaking Furnace to leave here.
Now without the Void Breaking Furnace, he felt helpless, unsure of how to depart this world.
There would always be a way, as long as he could find it.
Flying in one direction, soon he collided with the boundary wall, unable to exit.
A boundary formed by rules was present here, only by comprehending its profound mysteries could it be broken.
For Lin Yifan, this was a difficult task, even with the Enlightenment Tree, it might be unachievable.
However, practice is the sole criterion for testing truth; only by trying can it be known.
He then took out the Enlightenment Tree, letting it crack the natural rules here.
Seeing the world of drifting snow and chilling wind, the Enlightenment Tree finally felt settled.
It thought Lin Yifan had encountered curses again and needed rescue, luckily not.
"Brother Yifan, why did you bring me out?"
"Help me comprehend the rule forces above, find a way to break through," Lin Yifan replied.
The Enlightenment Tree was good at nothing but the Great Dao, profound mysteries, and rules, so it immediately solved Lin Yifan's worries.
Soon after, it shook its head, sighing and replied: "With my current strength, I cannot break it; yet..."
"Yet what?" Lin Yifan asked.
As long as there was hope, he would try his best.
"However, this natural rule will go invisible for a while, allowing you to leave then," answered the Enlightenment Tree.
"Really? How long might that take?"
"Hard to say, possibly one or two months, or half a year," replied the Enlightenment Tree.
One or two months, half a year was no matter to Lin Yifan, as long as he could leave.
Thus, he diligently cultivated, aiming to enhance his realm during this tedious time.
Over a month later, he started advancing to a new realm.
Entering the Immortal Ring, all preparations complete, he absorbed spiritual energy extensively, continually accumulating, filling this "bottle."
The bottleneck period was the hardest to break through; narrow and constrained, testing one's physical quality, adaptability, and endurance.
Experienced Lin Yifan, battle-hardened, had ample experience to handle this breakthrough.
Besides, he found breaking through realms here was much easier and simpler than outside.
He didn't know why, just found it fascinating.
"Boom!"
Before long, he'd reached the High Immortal Fifth Realm, a step away from advancing to a new tier.
...
Leaving the Immortal Ring, he noticed the natural rules still existed; he had to continue staying here.
Honestly, staying one or two months was fine, but a year or more could be unbearable, as this world wasn't very big, and he'd basically explored it all in over a month.
This was a futile and desolate time, he had to monotonously cultivate again.
Over half a month later, he suddenly found something looming at Snow Moon Lake.
Upon closer inspection, it was black curses.
Such things resurged, spreading outward, seemingly targeting spirit beasts in the snow forest.
Lin Yifan finally understood why Immortal Bai Ruo said this world was unsafe, due to the pervasive curses.
Anyone training here, once accidentally entwined by a curse, surely would not return.
He believed this area was once a Cultivation Holy Land, but the existence of curses deterred Northern Region cultivators from venturing here.
Lin Yifan possessed the Seven-Colored Immortal Ring, so he didn't fear curses invading.
Over a month ago, curses vanished, void creatures vanished. Over a month later, curses reappeared.
Lin Yifan pondered a daring guess.
He suspected the Realm of Longevity would be visited by void creatures at intervals, increasingly frequently and uncontrollably.
