Chapter 530: Crumbling Down

Lin Xuan Qi flew up into the air and saw that the tower in the distance had fallen.

He wasn’t sure if it was destroyed by the cultivators or if something was happening to the secret realm.

Either way, he had better make sure that Lao Er and Ling Er were safe.

When he descended back onto the ground, he sensed that there were others coming their way towards the old temple again.

Lin Xuan Qi picked up a rock on the ground and threw it near the bushes where Lao Er and Ling Er were.

Rustle.

When Lao Er heard the bushes rustle, he quickly glanced around to see if there was anyone there.

He got worried when he saw no one there.

The only instinct he had was to get away from where they were immediately.

"Ling Er, let’s go." He pulled Ling Er along and headed in the direction where they came from.

But after moving for a short distance, he saw a few figures and he quickly dragged Ling Er to hide inside a bush by the side of a tall tree.

They hid and heard the chatter among these figures.

"Where is the old temple?"

"It shouldn’t be too far away."

"You think there would be any cultivators there?"

"Hope not, it would save us so much trouble to take care of them."

"What do you think the sect leader wants to do with this secret realm?"

"Keep quiet. If not, senior martial brother Hu Yi will slice your tongue off."

The Qing Feng Sect disciples said among themselves while they walked towards the old temple.

Lin Xuan Qi frowned when he heard them talking about taking care of the cultivators. He assumed it wasn’t to help the cultivators heal and get them out of the secret realm.

So far, they had given him a sense that they were much happier if more cultivators died during the quest for the treasures inside the secret realm.

Was it deliberate on the part of the Qing Feng Sect?

They had said that they were glad to be able to share the resources with all the cultivators inside the secret realm but it seemed to be the other way around.

However, it was only speculation on his part so far, and all he could do now was to make sure that he, Lao Er and Ling Er got out of the secret realm safely.

Thankfully, the Qing Feng Sect disciples walked past Lao Er and Ling Er, without noticing them.

And after they had left, Lao Er and Ling Er crept on the ground, got out from the bush and they headed towards where they were spawned in the secret realm.

"It’s still the same..." Ling Er said when she saw that there was nothing special at the place they had spawned.

Lao Er frowned and said, "Maybe we have to wait a little longer."

Lin Xuan Qi thought so too and he channeled his thoughts through the incense urn.

"Wait. Have patience." When the low coarse voice boomed from the incense urn again, Lao Er’s eyes opened wide.

"Grand Ancestor Lin, we will do so... In the meantime, can we start to learn about cultivation?"

There was a moment of silence before the low coarse voice boomed, "Fine, we shall start with the breathing technique."

Lin Xuan Qi didn’t know how much longer it would be before they could get out of the secret realm; he might as well do something useful while they waited.

He would look over them and warn them if there were any incoming danger.

Lao Er glanced at Ling Er and Ling Er gave him a nod with teary eyes.

This was what they had tried to achieve after so much effort and resources.

And finally, they were able to do so.

Both of them controlled themselves and kept their joy inside them, as it was not the time to celebrate yet.

Lin Xuan Qi had read the Snow Swan Sword Style manuscript and he began to teach them what he knew, "First, sit in a lotus position and close your eyes."

Lao Er and Ling Er nodded their heads and did as instructed.

"Breathe and extend your abdomen, feel for the presence of the Spirit Qi that is in the surroundings."

They did so and they struggled to do so.

Maybe the Spirit Stone could help. Lin Xuan Qi thought and he said, "Take out the Spirit Stones you have with you, put one onto the palm of your hands and try again."

Lao Er opened his eyes, took out two Spirit Stones, passing one over to Ling Er and they placed the Spirit Stones onto their palms.

They closed their eyes again and took a deep breath.

This time, they felt something emitted from the Spirit Stone.

"I... I think I feel it!" Lao Er said excitedly and Ling Er also nodded vigorously.

Both of them were able to sense the Spirit Qi finally.

And that was not all.

They were able to sense the Spirit Qi that was in the surroundings too.

Lin Xuan Qi went on and taught them on how to absorb the Spirit Qi into their dantian.

He didn’t know how long it took, but Lao Er and Ling Er worked hard on it.

In between, when the effect of his invisible talisman wore off, he had to get behind cover to watch over them.

He didn’t know how much time had passed before another explosion was heard.

Boom.

The ground trembled once more and he glanced over in the direction where the explosion came from.

It was where the ancient battleground was.

Lin Xuan Qi began to suspect that these explosions were the result of the regions of the secret realm being closed.

Very soon, it might be the city, ancient forest and the old temple’s turn.

While he pondered on it, Lao Er and Ling Er opened their eyes due to the explosion they had heard and they stood up.

Lao Er and Ling Er glanced around warily, with the fear that someone might be coming.

Thankfully, there weren’t any and they gave out a sigh of relief.

But their relief was short-lived.

A voice that was not from Grand Ancestor Lin boomed in the air.

"The ancient forest that you are in right now will disappear soon and crumble into emptiness...
