CHAPTER 435: CHAPTER 250: BEAST IMMORTAL PILL

Lin Chen didn’t hide anything and explained everything fully.

The Great Elder appeared dazed upon hearing this and said, "That shouldn’t be."

"Does the Great Elder know about this matter?" Lin Chen asked.

"Do you know the origin of the Path to Immortality?" the Great Elder inquired.

"It’s said to be a remnant of history," Lin Chen replied, "Isn’t it?"

"Naturally, it is," the Great Elder nodded, saying, "But do you know that the Path to Immortality is said to have a hundred levels, but it’s actually more than that."

After hearing this, Lin Chen spoke incredulously, "But many students have counted, and it indeed has a hundred levels."

The Great Elder said seriously, "The Tree Ancestor once ascended to the 100th level, but it found traces of a break above."

"Do you mean there’s more path beyond, but it’s broken?"

"Correct."

"But what’s the connection with the human figure?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

"If there’s someone, it means the path is alive," the Great Elder looked at Lin Chen and smiled, "Maybe you’re the one who can find the broken path."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen wiped away some sweat, saying, "Great Elder, I feel like you’re pulling my leg."

Lin Chen didn’t want to bear such a heavy burden.

"I’m just mentioning it, who can say what the future holds?" the Great Elder redirected the topic, saying, "The Immortal Beast’s relic is about to be opened, we’ll set off tomorrow, go prepare."

"Yes."

Lin Chen cupped his hands, preparing to leave, and suddenly remembered something, turning back to say, "Great Elder, about that eight..."

"I’ve already said, no reward," the Great Elder rolled his eyes and retorted directly.

"....."

Lin Chen sighed, thinking the Great Elder was a bit rude, not even letting people finish their words.

.....

The next day, Lin Chen went to the Mentor Hall to bid farewell to Liu Gu, because after this trip to the Celestial Realm Mountain conference, he might return to Jiuxing City.

Apart from not having returned for a long time, Lin Chen was also concerned about Lee Zhen’s broken arm.

Besides, he was already a graduate of the Spirit Academy.

"I wonder if Chairman Lee is still in Jiuxing City, or has he gone off somewhere to flirt with girls again." Lin Chen thought of Lee Zhen and the others, and couldn’t help but smile.

At this moment, Liu Gu said, "If the Little Fox can awaken the Phoenix Karmic Fire, it means it possesses a constitution suited for other flame generations. When you have the capability, you might find other fires for it, like the Nether Flame, Cold Flame...."

"Teacher, you really have high expectations for me," Lin Chen said, sweating, "It’s already good enough I can raise them."

Liu Gu laughed heartily, but in an instant, his expression became serious, saying:

"The Spirit Academy indeed has intentions to bind you, but it doesn’t belong to any single power. In the future, if you wish to join other factions, the Spirit Academy will not stand in your way. Just remember, the founding intention of the Spirit Academy was for the nation."

"I understand Teacher’s meaning," Lin Chen said.

"Also, I’ve taught many students, and you seem the most shrewd," Liu Gu said with a smile, "The National Master’s Institute has sent a message that Bai Ling has been kicked out. In half a year, the Spirit Academy will take her back."

"Though she has graduated, given her special status, the Spirit Academy will protect her for a while. If you have time, come back and see us."

"I’ll keep it in mind," Lin Chen cupped his hands, then solemnly bowed deeply to Liu Gu, and after some thought, added:

"Teacher, once my Spirit Beast needs to evolve, I’ll be back."

Liu Gu was taken aback and then laughed heartily, cursing, "You brat."

An hour later, the Great Elder summoned a celestial crane and set out with them. Since the crane wasn’t large, Xiaobai and the others were kept within the Beast Taming Space.

Only a small blue fish was left.

Wu Chen was very curious about the little blue fish because his main task this time returning to the Spirit Academy was to acquire the Spirit Egg obtained at the Beast Fighting Conference.

"Little Junior Brother, is this the immortal egg you got from Celestial Beast Island?" Wu Chen asked.

Lin Chen nodded.

At this moment, the little blue fish was sleeping soundly, and Wu Chen, curious, asked, "Wouldn’t it be better for your Spirit Beast to sleep inside?"

"It likes sunbathing."

"Huh?"

Wu Chen thought he misheard.

A fish that likes sunbathing?

What nonsense.

Lin Chen looked at the little blue fish sleeping sweetly, with bubbles coming from its nostrils, feeling a bit helpless.

He really wanted to tell Wu Chen that the little blue fish seemed to be asleep, but it was actually cultivating.

However, such a thing was too extraordinary, and if word got out, it would make others envious. Although Wu Chen appeared reliable, he was, after all, someone from the Celestial Capital, which made Lin Chen a bit concerned.

After all, he’s still at level 29 and hasn’t made a contract with the little blue fish yet.

The Great Elder knew, but he didn’t mention it, instead changing the topic, "It’s rumored that this relic is quite large."

"How was it discovered?" Lin Chen asked.

"It’s rumored that a grave robber found it," Wu Chen eagerly recounted and even mentioned the person’s name.

"Xu Feng?" Lin Chen thought he misheard.

"You know him?"

Lin Chen didn’t hide anything and recounted the whole story.

Previously, when Bai Ling was assassinated, after they fell into distress and returned to the Spirit Academy, Lin Chen bought an Ancient Book from Xu Feng.

Because Xu Feng’s behavior was quite bizarre, Lin Chen had some impression of him.

"Seems like you all have a connection," Wu Chen said with a smile, "This grave robber has good luck. It’s rumored he sold this information to a major power for a good price."

"Later, this major power tried to secretly excavate it, but didn’t expect it to be leaked."
