Chapter 132: Next Destination

After a while, Yun Lintian appeared in the living room and retrieved the item list that Yun Qingrou prepared for him. 

"Nine Soul Flower, Twin Souls Lotus, Thunder Grass… Thunder Grass? The Thunder Valley should have it, right?" Yun Lintian talked to himself while reading the list. It was coincident he planned to go to the Thunder Valley next. He didn't know whether there was the Thunder Grass there but didn't know where else that had such a condition for the Thunder Grass to grow.

"Just a stalk of them will do. We can grow them here. However, we don't have the lightning element here. I don't think we can grow the Thunder Grass, but others are not a problem." Yun Qingrou said on the side.

Yun Lintian nodded his head and asked. "Where are others? Have they finished choosing the profound arts?"

Yun Qingrou answered. "Yes. You should go to the Library to check them out."

Yun Lintian said nothing further and headed to the Library after storing the list away. When he arrived at the Library, he saw Yun Ruanyu packed a stack of books on the counter and was prepared to leave.

"You are here." Yun Ruanyu greeted and handed the stack of books to Yun Lintian. "Here are the profound arts that suit everyone. You can recheck it."

"All of them?" Yun Lintian was taken aback. He thought Yun Ruanyu would choose one or two profound arts, but it didn't seem to be the case.

"In fact, there is more, but I heard you're in a hurry to go out. So I only picked the important ones up. You should know that you are the only one who can teach them. When you aren't here, they could only practice the one they have. Since you are back now, you should impart these profound arts to everyone before leaving." Yun Ruanyu explained.

Yun Lintian patted his forehead. He had completely forgotten about this. It was indeed true, as Yun Ruanyu said. Currently, everyone in the sect was practicing two or three profound arts at most. The variety of the profound arts among them was too low, and Yun Lintian had no time to impart a new profound art to them during these past months.

He made a decision and said. "You should practice the Enlightening Guide Technique. In the future, you will be responsible for this."

Yun Ruanyu accepted the task readily. "Alright. I'll study it now." She suddenly thought of something and asked. "Right, what do you get from the Profound Beast Core."

Yun Lintian explained briefly. "I think the Abyssal Energy has a grade like the profound energy. In this case, the Abyssal Energy in the Profound Beast Core is likely to be a high-level one, as it seems to be alive. It could detect the threat and move away from it. For now, the Profound Spirit Liquid we have could deal with it. However, I don't know if it's still working when facing the higher-level one."

Yun Ruanyu digested the information shortly and said. "Have you studied how it works?"

Yun Lintian nodded. "It could devour profound energy to strengthen itself. I think there's no way for human practitioners to outpace the profound beasts with Abyssal Energy in practice."

"And we cannot eat them, but they can eat us." Yun Ruanyu added her thoughts.

"Exactly." Yun Lintian agreed with her. He also had this conclusion. "Sooner or later, they will outnumber us. At that time, even we want to fight back, we will have no chance at all."

"This matter is really out of our hands. Do you have any idea?" Yun Ruanyu's expression turned heavy. The Misty Cloud Sect was definitely safe, but what was the point of staying here for the rest of their life?

"I am going to contact the Frozen Moon Palace Master. I happen to know her." Yun Lintian then narrated the encounter between him and Han Bingling to Yun Ruanyu.

Yun Ruanyu immediately frowned upon listening to him. She said. "Why would such a powerful figure value you this much? I mean, it's too overly, even though you did her a favor. However, for now, there's no ulterior motive behind it. She's being cautious because your 'master' is still unknown to her."

Then, Yun Ruanyu glanced at Yun Lintian's right hand curiously. "What kind of the power within that ring?"

Yun Lintian shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know about it too." He also didn't know how many times he could activate this power.

"Alright. We should get busy." Yun Ruanyu didn't linger further and went to study the Enlightening Guide Technique while Yun Lintian memorized the content of the books before him.

Six hours later, Yun Lintian had memorized every book and notified Yun Qianxue to gather all the disciples, including Cang Xiao's group.

A while later, Yun Lintian stood in front of a thousand people and used the Enlightening Guide Technique to impart the profound arts.

"I know all of you cannot break through the Spirit Profound Realm at the moment. You should stop thinking about it first and practice all of these profound arts. I'll solve the problem later." Yun Lintian wiped the sweats out of his forehead and said. 

This was the first time he used the technique on this many people at the same time. It drained his mental power significantly, similar to his transformation ability.

"Yes. Headmaster!" Everyone shouted in unison and immediately dispersed upon getting Yun Lintian's signal.

"Are you leaving now?" Yun Qianxue took a handkerchief to help Yun Lintian wipe the sweats.

Yun Lintian replied. "Yes. I need to go now." Seeing her worried expression, Yun Lintian gave her a reassuring smile. "Don't worry. I'll be careful."

Yun Qianxue nodded her head gently and stepped back, watching Yun Lintian entered the Gate of Beyond Heaven until he vanished from the place.

"Still worry?" Yun Meilan asked. "You should learn to trust and believe in him. Otherwise, you would never be at ease." 

Yun Qianxue said nothing and continued to stare at the spot that Yun Lintian disappeared for a while before her eyes slowly turned determined in the next moment.
