"Let's go, there is no time to waste!"

The old man said and brought the three of them with him outside the cave. The moment they came outside, that cave also crumbled.

"Whoa!! It was close. If we were to be late for even ten breaths of times, we would have been buried alive here!" Lin Hao let out a long breath and said while looking at the fallen cave.

"Senior, since you are free now, you should also fulfil your promise!" Lin Hao turned to look at the old man and asked while feeling a little anxious in his heart.

"Don't worry about that. This old man will definitely fulfil the promise he made. We will meet outside the Secret Realm. I have to prepare something. Three days after going out of the Secret Realm, I will accept you as my disciple. You can also bring the person you talked about before and then we will set off for the Upper Realm."

The old man confirmed Lin Hao which made his anxious heart calm down a lot. It was good that the old man did not waver from his promise.

The old man disappeared after saying all of this, leaving Ye Xiao, Lin Hao, and the Dark Demon Wolf behind.

Lin Hao was about to tell Ye Xiao something when Ye Xiao took out a small pill bottle in which he stored the drop of Little Yellow's Vitality Essence and gave it to Lin Hao then said, "Lin Hao, I don't think I can remain conscious for much longer. I might lose my consciousness at any moment."

"Why are you saying this. Don't worry, nothing will happen to you!" Lin Hao did not take the small bottle from Ye Xiao. He just tried to comfort him.

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "Listen, Lin Hao, I may not go out of the Secret Realm. This is something very important to my master. Give it to him and tell him that after giving you this thing, I disappeared and you don't know my whereabouts. Tell him that Ye Xiao promised to meet him soon!"

After saying this, Ye Xiao threw the small pill bottle toward Lin Hao and ran in a different direction. Lin Hao hurriedly caught the pill bottle and looked at Ye Xiao's disappearing figure and shouted, "Ye Xiao, where are you going? You can not even use your spirit energy, it is very dangerous out there. Come back!"

Lin Hao followed Ye Xiao while the Dark Demon Wolf followed behind Lin Hao. Lin Hao kept shouting but Ye Xiao was nowhere to be seen. It was as if he completely disappeared from the Secret Realm.

Lin Hao stopped running, took a long breath, and looked at the small bottle in his hand. This was something Ye Xiao left behind for his master. Lin Hao lightly shook his head and stored the pill bottle in his spatial ring and said, "If you don't come out of the Secret Realm, I will give this bottle to your master but if you come out of the secret realm, give it to him yourself."

"Even if you don't come out, I will still wait for you in the Upper Realm. I believe that you can not die and will find a way out of your current situation. If you don't come out of the Secret Realm this time, then let's meet in the Upper Realm next time."

After saying all of this, Lin Hao took a deep breath while looking in the direction where he saw Ye Xiao's figure disappearing then turned around and left with the Dark Demon Wolf.

Ye Xiao on the other hand actually entered the Heavenly Pearl and arrived at the Second Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda.

There he arrived at the place where he planted the root of the Spirit Stealing Fruit and asked the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon, "If I were to let this root absorb the energy of the world inside me, will it sprout out again and bear the Spirit Stealing fruit?"

The Divine Soul Emperor Dragon was surprised when he heard Ye Xiao. He said, "Your idea is crazy but you can give it a shot. Maybe, this root can once again sprout and bear the Spirit Stealing Fruit but you have to know that, to mature, it steals a very large amount of spirit energy from the world and after being eaten by someone, it once again steals the same amount of spirit energy from the world."

"Let's say that this all can be done with the support of those large amounts of energy of world inside your body but the question is, how will you do that? You can not even control even a strand of your energy, how will you let the root of Spirit Stealing Fruit absorb it?"

When Ye Xiao heard this, he took a long breath and said, "Well, this is true. Then what exactly should I do?"

He also knew what the Divine Soul Emperor Dragon said was true. There was no way he could control the chaotic energy within his body, and since he could not control the energy within his body, how could he let the root of the Spirit Stealing Fruit absorb it?

"I also feel that I am going to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm at any time. If this were to happen, I will once again encounter the Heavenly Tribulation, and since I could not control the energy within my body, how will I face the Heavenly Tribulation this time?" Ye Xiao took a long breath and said.

"I think you should go outside and find a secluded place and search for the other destructive energy within your body. I think that destructive energy will help out you a lot if you could control it for even a single breath of time." The Divine Soul Emperor Dragon thought for a while and gave Ye Xiao a suggestion which he has long forgotten.
