Chapter 126 - Severe Situation
Chapter 126 – Severe Situation
Since Yun Lintian couldn't figure it out for the time being, he decided to put this matter aside first and continued to cook the meal. He was annoyed because he couldn't enter the Land of Beyond Heaven to study the Profound Beast Core. It seemed he needed to find a way to get rid of this person.
Yun Lintian calmly finished his meal and closed his eyes, absorbing the surrounding profound energy. As he was being watched, Yun Lintian didn't dare to casually take out the High-grade Profound Stone. Hence, he could only practice normally.
He practiced for an hour and felt it was too slow. He could not go on like this and decided to face the person watching him for all this time.
Yun Lintian stood up and shouted loudly. "I know you are watching me for all this time. Can you come out and talk to me? I have something to tell you."
He waited for a while, and there was only a silence that accompanied him. He said further. "I know Palace Master Han sent you here. I have the information related to the Poison Valley to tell her. Please come out."
Could it be there is no one? That's not right. My intuition is always on point. Especially when someone is watching me. Yun Lintian thought.
Far distance in the sky, Han Muyue's beautiful eyes fixated on Yun Lintian's figure. She didn't know how Yun Lintian discovered her and hesitated whether to go out as it could be his trick. She took out the transmission jade and asked Han Bingling for advice.
A moment later, Han Bingling's voice came out from the other side. "Go ahead and talk to him."
Han Muyue put the transmission jade away and immediately appeared in front of Yun Lintian without saying anything.
Yun Lintian was taken aback for a second by the sudden appearance of Han Muyue. He observed her for a while and said. "Can I talk with your master?"
Han Muyue immediately handed the transmission jade to him.
Yun Lintian received the transmission jade and contacted Han Bingling. Instead of telling her the information, he asked coldly. "Why did you send someone to follow me?"
"Don't be angry, okay? Sister just wants to protect you." Han Bingling's voice rang out from the other side.
"I think I've made it clear to you before. I don't need your protection. You should call your people back." Yun Lintian said with a trace of anger.
Han Bingling was silent for a while before replying. "Alright, this sister understands. I'll call her back, okay?… I heard you have new information? Why don't you tell your sister about it?"
In fact, Yun Lintian wasn't angry in the slightest. He was just put an act in order to chase Han Bingling's people away. Seeing it was working, he said. "I think I've found the Poison Valley's grand conspiracy."
"Oh? Tell sister quickly." Han Bingling's interest was piqued instantly. She trusted Yun Lintian's information since he could deal with Abyssal Energy.
"Earlier, I encountered the Profound Beast in a human form." Yun Lintian said.
"What? Did you encounter the Saint Profound Beast? Are you hurt?" Han Bingling's voice was full of worry.
Yun Lintian felt weird. Did she really care about him? From her voice, Yun Lintian was certain her worry was genuine. He answered. "No, you're wrong. This Profound Beast is not the Saint Profound Beast but the peak Essence Profound Beast."
"Huh? How is that possible?" Han Bingling was puzzled.
"Well, if I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I won't believe it too." Yun Lintian didn't delay further. "This Profound Beast has already formed its core despite it was the Essence Profound Realm. I've interrogated it and found it used Abyssal Energy… Oh right, the Abyssal Poison that you know is actually called Abyssal Energy."
"Abyssal Energy?" This was the first time Han Bingling heard this name.
"The profound beasts are using this Abyssal Energy to practice. You can think of it as profound energy, but it is exclusively for the profound beast. I don't think any human could use it." Yun Lintian explained. Suddenly, he thought of Lin Xinyao… That girl… Strange. Her body can contain Abyssal Energy. Is it because of the Divine Moon Profound Vein, as I was speculated, or does she have the Profound Beast's bloodline? But my Eyes of Heaven didn't see any bloodline within her body.
Han Bingling's brain worked quickly and immediately came to a conclusion. "You mean, the Poison Valley's real goal is to cultivate more powerful profound beasts in one go?"
Yun Lintian responded. "Yes. Imagine, what would happen if there are countless profound beasts in a human form mixing in the society everywhere? Well… Perhaps they are everywhere now."
Ordinary profound practitioners could not detect the Profound Beast in a human form easily. Unless they had the Eyes of Heaven like Yun Lintian.
Far away on the Moon Shifting Profound Sky Ship, Han Bingling's expression turned solemn. She understood how severe the situation was. If these profound beasts suddenly attacked at the same time throughout the entire Northern Continent, even ten Frozen Moon Palaces won't be enough to deal with them.
"I suggest that you prepare for the worst early. Especially your Frozen Moon Palace. If they want to occupy this Northern Continent, they could just stall your Frozen Moon Palace as long as possible while letting these profound beasts run rampage at the same time." Yun Lintian expressed his thought.
The Frozen Moon Palace was the strongest existence in the Northern Continent, but no matter how powerful they were, they could not help everyone in the Northern Continent at the same time. If Yun Lintian was the Poison Valley's leader, he would just keep the Frozen Moon Palace busy and let his subordinates run amok freely.
Seeing Han Bingling hadn't replied, Yun Lintian gave another suggestion. "The first thing you should do right now is to get rid of the mole within the Frozen Moon Palace as soon as possible. However, you have to make it clean and neat before they could alert the Poison Valley. At the same time, you need to mobilize your trusted people to protect important places, such as the Grand Transmission Formation. Also, since you and the Divine Thunder Palace Master are good friends, you should ask her for help."
