"Where is Junior Brother Yun?" Yun Jiajia asked when she didn't see Yun Lintian appear on the transmission formation.

Yun Li's expression turned heavy. When she noticed Yun Lintian's anxious look, she knew there was something wrong happened, and he didn't follow back was the evidence. ​​

She said to Yun Jiajia, "Bring our sisters to rest first. I'll go report."

"What's going on?" Yun Li was about to move. Yun Ruanyu had appeared before her and inquired.

Yun Li hurriedly bowed and said, "Report to First Hall Master, I think something happens to Junior Brother Yun before we transmitting back."

Yun Ruanyu's expression changed and quickly set up an isolated barrier. "Tell me the detail."

Yun Li didn't understand why would Yun Ruanyu had to set the barrier. She began to narrate everything from the beginning of the exploration to the time when they came back.

After listening to her, Yun Ruanyu's brows creased together with concern. She took a transmission jade out to contact Yun Huanxin. "Sister Huanxin, there is something wrong with Lintian. You have to find him. I suspect he is getting chased by the enemy right now."

Putting the transmission jade away, Yun Ruanyu said to Yun Li and the rest. "Remember, don't speak about this, and all of you have to stay in my chamber first. Do not contact anyone."

Yun Li and the rest looked at each other in confusion but still complied.

On the other side, Yun Huanxin received Yun Ruanyu's message and became anxious. According to the plan, she had to go to Yun Meilan and Yun Lingwei's side to bring them back. That's why she didn't follow Yun Lintian's group after leaving the mythical realm entrance.

She quickly manipulated the spatial element and disappeared from the spot, heading toward the cave with all her might. Ten minutes later, she arrived in the cave and saw the transmission formation was nowhere to be seen, making her heart grew heavy further.

Yun Huanxin came out of the cave and spread her Spiritual Sense to check the surroundings. Upon she saw several trees were destroyed by something, she hurriedly followed the trace without hesitation.

A minute later, she arrived at the cliff and found a trace of Yun Lintian's footprints at the edge. Her face turned unsightly and immediately flew down with a heavy heart… God, I beg you, please keep him safe. She prayed in her heart.

"Ugh…" Yun Lintian slowly opened his eyes in drowsiness.

What came into his sight was a clear sky with a small group of clouds floating slowly. A ray of sun shone brightly, reflecting on his face, and made his muddle head become clearer.

Yun Lintian moved his body and found himself soaking in a crystal clear lake. He was confused and tried to recollect the memory before he fell unconscious. He remembered when he hit the river, several bones on his body were broken directly, but currently, except for the soreness, all of his bones were still intact, as if nothing happened before.

While he was tangling with this weird occurrence, his gaze subconsciously landed on the lake, and his eyes immediately widened open in shock. "T-this… Profound Spirit Lake!?"

Yun Lintian couldn't be mistaken even though he never saw Profound Spirit Lake before because the density of profound energy within the lake could not lie to him. Combining with a hazy spiritual mist floating on the surface, Yun Lintian remembered this characteristic very well, as it was written on the [Remnant Record of Life].

Back then, when he read about this, Yun Lintian had dreamed of using it to cultivate everyone in the sect, building the number one sect in the Azure World. Now, what he yearned for all this time had appeared before him. How could he stay calm?

Yun Lintian scooped the water up with his hands to examine carefully. The water was crystal clear and gave him a feeling as if he held buttermilk. It was silky-smooth, and he could feel a richness of profound energy within it.

Without hesitation, Yun Lintian drank a mouthful of the Profound Spirit Water. The taste was sweet and refreshing, better than any drink he had on Earth. In the next moment, he could feel a large portion of profound energy quickly spread through every part of his body, causing him to have an urge to moan in comfortable.

"Good stuff!" Yun Lintian exclaimed excitedly. Comparing to the Celestial Buddha Lotus that he had obtained before, the Profound Spirit Lake was even more precious to him because he could use it directly unlike the former as he had to wait for another hundred years.

"Right, where is this place?" Yun Lintian calmed down after a while and looked around in puzzlement. He didn't believe he would have the protagonist's unreasonable luck just by jumping off the cliff and found this place.

He looked through the hazy mist and saw the shore not far away from him. Just as he was about to swim toward the shore, he felt something unusual around his neck and quickly touched it.

"Where is my necklace!?" Yun Lintian became panicked. When he jumped off the cliff, he didn't have a panic in the slightest, but this time it was different. The silver necklace had accompanied him in two lifetimes. Even though he didn't know what was the use of it, it could be regarded as his good friend. Not to mention, it was a memento that was left behind by his father. No matter what, he could not bear to lose it.

Yun Lintian channeled his profound energy and dived into the lake, trying to find the silver necklace. The lake was around six meters deep and extremely vast, estimating around thirty square kilometers. Within a few breath times, Yun Lintian arrived at the lake's floor and the scenery immediately stunned him again.

Countless high-grade Profound Stones lying on the lake's floor, they were too many for Yun Lintian to estimate the number by his eyes. He swore he never saw this much wealth for his entire life. He thought the small mountain of middle-grade Profound Stone he exchanged from Little Flame was already an enormous wealth he could find in the Heavenly Fortune Nation. However, the massive amount of the high-grade Profound Stones in front of him had blown his mind away directly. It was as if a beggar suddenly won a jackpot, becoming a billionaire overnight.

"Where the hell is this place? No! Where the paradise is this place?" Yun Lintian said to himself with a silly smile and even forgot to control his profound energy.

"Right, this is not the time to appreciate the wealth." Yun Lintian took his eyes off the glittered Profound Stones and searched for the silver necklace.

Ten minutes later, he was disappointed by the result and thought it was wishful thinking to find the necklace in this environment. He closed his eyes with grief and prepared to accept the fact that he lost the necklace forever.

However, when his eyes were tightly shut, he suddenly saw a small silver gate appeared in his mind. The silver gate had a shape that resembled the rectangle piece on the silver necklace, but it looked more imposing, giving an ancient vibe.

"What is this?" Yun Lintian was confused and his mind moved onto the silver gate. Suddenly the silver gate expanded its size before it flew out of his body, appearing in front of him.

Yun Lintian opened his eyes and saw the silver gate stood tall, a step away from him. On the gate, there was a dragon and phoenix pattern intertwined together. Below them there was an imposing white tiger, posting a roaring stance and there was a black turtle beside it.

As an avid novel reader, he recognized them almost in an instant. The four of them were the mythological beasts in Chinese mythology. He didn't know if they were real, but he was looking forward to seeing them with his own eyes one day.

On the border of the gate, there were complicated ancient runes that Yun Lintian didn't recognize engraved from the top to bottom. Yun Lintian put his excitement aside and tried to open the gate with his hands, but the gate didn't move an inch, no matter how hard he tried.

"Maybe I can use my mind to open it?" Yun Lintian retracted his hands and changed the method. He stared at the gate and ordered it with his mind. Surprisingly, the gate opened immediately in the next second.

Yun Lintian became cautious and walked into the gate. A moment later, he found himself in a raging river as he channeled profound energy to stabilize himself firmly in the position.

"This is the river I fell in earlier?" Yun Lintian looked around and recognized this place.

"Then this gate…" Yun Lintian looked at the silver gate and his eyes lit up in excitement as he quickly stepped into the gate and appeared in the Profound Spiritual Lake once again.

"Private space!? So the silver necklace is a space treasure!" Yun Lintian came to a conclusion immediately. He had read a ton of novels with the protagonist having this kind of treasure before. He was certain this place was similar to the legendary space treasure.

Yun Lintian did not immediately go up and check the surrounding. He went back to the river outside again to catch several fish before he brought them into his private space. Upon seeing the fishes happily swimming in the lake with no problem, he couldn't help but become ecstatic. With this, he could bring everyone in his sect to escape with him!

While Yun Lintian was overjoyed, Yun Huanxin's Spiritual Sense suddenly detected an abnormality under the river and hastily dived into that position. Unfortunately, when she arrived, Yun Lintian had already retracted the silver gate away.
