After Lin Zhizhi left the palace ruins, he continued to travel for a hundred miles before stopping at a hidden grass field once he sensed that he was alone. Lin Zhizhi was careful not to break the branch scattered around him and leave any trace of him before taking the spirit out of his spatial ring.
The system had previously gone back to its deep slumber after it told Lin Zhizhi that he could gain the affection of this secret realm. If it’s still awake with him now, Lin Zhizhi would see the favorability of this hidden realm had increased up to ten points. That is because the demon spirit that Lin Zhizhi rescued is a native of this realm. The spirit realm had watched him endure the long-term torture of being trapped inside that demon refining pill furnace, and was grateful to the young man that rescued this pitiful spirit.
Lin Zhizhi was unaware that his actions had garnered plenty of goodwill from the spirit realm, and is presently curiously observing this weak spirit he had just rescued.
This demon spirit was initially the soul of a demonic beast. After his soul got extracted from his body and placed inside the furnace, he should have turned into an elixir. However, this demon spirit did not go through the complete procedure of turning it into a pill. The process abruptly stopped when it was in the middle of being refined. Now, this spirit is floating in front of Lin Zhizhi in the form of a strange white mist.
At this moment, the demon spirit had freed himself of the restraints the demonic furnace had placed on him earlier. The spirit’s mind is now completely sober. Although he is still in a weak state, he regained a certain amount of his wisdom. He looked at the black-haired boy in front of him. He then asked Lin Zhizhi, ” You, Did you cast some sort of bewitchment spell on me?”
“…what?”
“Tsk.. damn. Say, why couldn’t I help wanting to follow you after I heard your voice ah! You humans are still so despicable… Either you let me go now or kill me!” The spirit immediately understood his situation once he sobered up. On the off chance that this person before him wanted to concoct him into a pill, with his current state, he had no possibility of escaping him. Fortunately for Lin Zhizhi, the spirit gave up the struggle. Instead, he merely spoke to Lin Zhizhi according to his temper, speaking without giving a damn if his words would infuriate him.
Lin Zhizhi frowned once he heard this spirit’s words. As if he thought of something, his consciousness floated into his Dantian to check the mark of his charming physique. He saw that the former fledgling petal shape imprint that marked his dantian had changed into a budding flower. Inside the Wanjian cave, Yinxing Ling’s natural charming physique got stimulated. Hence, it causes Lin Zhizhi’s own physique to accelerate its growth, not wanting to lose to the other. But at that time, Lin Zhizhi hadn’t noticed this change yet.
When the spirit abruptly agreed to follow him, Lin Zhizhi wondered why a stubborn creature like him would readily succumb to a human he had never met before.
But now, it seems that his charming physique played a role in this. It looks like he has to pick up his pace on reaching the foundation-building stage.
“Hey! Did you hear me?! You shameless puny human!”
The demon spirit called out to him weakly. It took a long time for him to catch his breath, but his hatred towards the human race made him insist on screaming at Lin Zhizhi. Lin Zhizhi’s thoughts were interrupted by the spirit’s call, causing this young master of the Lin family to answer him impatiently, ” Did I restrict you and bind you to me? You could leave whenever you want.”
The demon beast spirit, who was venting his hatred a moment ago, was stunned when he heard this. From those ancient cultivators to this generation of cultivators now, which one of them did not want him? But this young man in front of him was a little odd. But it doesn’t matter. Since he’s allowed to go, he better hurry up and leave this boy.
The spirit floated up, wanting to fly away from here like before. But he was unable to garner up the strength to do so. Much less flying away, he couldn’t even move. The spirit took a breath before trying again when he suddenly collapsed. He fell from the air onto the ground below him.

He thought he would fall heavily onto the ground, but he was caught midway by a pair of tender hands.
The spirit sneered cynically at Lin Zhizhi, ” Didn’t you say that I could leave anytime I want? Does it not count now?”
Lin Zhizhi shook his head and said, ” You can, But if you fall like this, you could damage the flowers and plants beneath you.”
The demon spirit, “…”
What is wrong with this human? He acts like a scary monster toward him, but he cares about these wildflowers? Could he be obsessed with these flowers or something?
He only felt that this young man might be a rare specimen among the human race. He opened his eyes using all his might, only to see that the young man had wrapped his arms around him. His jet black eyes looked as if they contained thousands of stars inside them. He looked at him with those eyes with a gaze different from the rest of the human race he had met before. He looked at him neither with lust nor greed. But with indifference, as if he’s just some stray cat at the side of the road, “Even if I let you go now, you are not capable of moving now.”
What he said was indeed the truth.
The demon beast spirit reluctantly swallowed down the ridicule at the tip of his tongue. He then closed his eyes in frustration as he said to Lin Zhizhi, ” if I still have my body, I would kill you like I was slaughtering a dog!”
Lin Zhizhi snorted coldly before saying, ” if we have the same cultivation stage, I could easily suppress you using one hand.”
“Oh, the typical self-comfort of the flimsy human race.” The demon spirit fell on top of the palm of the young man. His head was held high. Not wanting to admit defeat, he said to Lin Zhizhi. ” I’m already like this. There’s no need to keep up your hypocritical act. just go ahead and refine me directly.”
Lin Zhizhi remained silent as he moved the demon beast spirit with his fingers.
He didn’t harbor any idea of refining this spirit, even if it’s immensely beneficial to him if he refined it into a pill and consumed it.
Since he vaguely guessed this demon spirit’s experience inside the demon refining furnace, Lin Zhizhi respected him.
There are also certain things that a person would do and would not do.
He has respected this tenacious and beautiful soul, so he will not choose to refine this spirit.
Besides, he is Lin Zhizhi. He has absolute confidence that he could still build his foundation much faster than his peers without refining this demon spirit.
Ignoring the demon spirit’s incessant scolding, the young man poked the spirit’s head. But suddenly, he abruptly looked alarmingly at a spot and said to the spirit. ” You better be grateful to me. If you fall to their hands, you’ll certainly be dead-”
The demon hadn’t finished hearing the whole sentence when he got placed back inside the spatial ring. Lin Zhizhi summoned the Wenxuan sword and sliced at the grass that had just shifted a moment ago. Two people stood at the field, wearing the Yinquan sect’s uniform but…
The two of them had bloody holes on their forehead. Their souls are already drifting to the afterlife.
Lin Zhizhi’s expression froze. He felt a chill right behind his back, a needle was hurtling toward him at high speed!
The young man was unafraid of the incoming danger as he turned around and avoided the needles. He was about to fight back when a black fog unexpectedly enveloped his sight!
Lightning flashed on his Wenxuan sword. Gradually, the black mist dissipated from his sight.
“Thunder!” an unfamiliar voice exclaimed in irritation.
Lin Zhizhi attacked with his sword. At this moment, he had a vague guess about this person’s identity, but he dared not confirm it. If his assumption came out true, then all of the disciples in the hidden realm would be in grave danger!
The stranger dispersed the black mist. Normally, this black fog could not only obstruct people’s vision but also slow down their mobility. But he never expected to encounter someone who could utilize thunder.
Lightning overwhelms the sinister fog!
The man shrouded in black stared at Lin Zhizhi with killing intent.
Inside the hidden floating sky realm, in an expanse of a green swamp.
A young man clad in white clasped the handle of an umbrella firmly with his slender fingers, walking beneath the umbrella.
This behavior is normal. However, with the cloudless sky hovering above him, it seemed to be a little odd.
The female disciple behind the young man caught up with him. She asked him strangely, “Su Yu, it’s currently not raining now. Why are you holding an umbrella?”
Su Yu raised his head and glanced toward the sky. A smile emerged on his lips as he replied to her, ” It will soon.”
His voice was very gentle. Like the spring breeze blowing into one’s face. He used the most soothing voice to warn his fellow disciples behind him; the storm is coming.
Although not many know about it, they will soon.
