Chapter 947

Chapter 947: Chapter 423: Crisis (3rd chapter for today, additional chapter) Chapter 947: Chapter 423: Crisis (3rd chapter for today, additional chapter) Lin Jing had two strands of Immortal Yuan in his possession.

One was ordinary Immortal Yuan, captured from a meteorite.

The other was special Immortal Yuan.

The special Immortal Yuan sought Lin Jing out on its own during his Tribulation.

Naturally, Lin Jing presented the ordinary Immortal Yuan.

The special Immortal Yuan was likely related to the three World Seeds; Lin Jing certainly wouldn’t present it.

Huang Qingling had by then come to her senses.

...

After coming to, Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing and, with a smile, began to speak,

“Lin Jing…”

“You, an old friend, are somewhat inscrutable to me.”

“I find that whether it was in the past when my spirit division encountered you or even now, you always manage to surprise.”

“Setting other matters aside, let’s look at your cultivation; in just over three hundred years, you’ve leaped from a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to the early stages of Mahayana.”

“Such rapid progress in cultivation is probably unprecedented within the realms of Xuanqing, Cangyun, and Jiulin.”

“But you’ve done it.”

Speaking thus, Huang Qingling looked straight at Lin Jing for quite a while as if trying to see through him,

“Perhaps it was fate that my spirit division encountered you.”

After saying these words, Huang Qingling reached out, and the Immortal Yuan in Lin Jing’s hand flew straight over to her.

Then, Huang Qingling spoke again to Lin Jing,

“I’ve taken the Immortal Yuan.”

“Give me half a month; once I’ve refined this Immortal Yuan, I will accompany you to the Land of Immortal Remnants and bring the two of them out.”

Lin Jing nodded upon hearing this and said,

“Thank you…!”

Huang Qingling replied,

“There’s no need…”

“If anything, I should be thanking you.”

“If you hadn’t brought this news, I don’t know how long it would have taken to recover from my injuries.”

“Well then…”

“You go and catch up with those three first; once I’ve finished refining this Immortal Yuan, we can set out.”

However…

Lin Jing still showed no intention of leaving long after Huang Qingling had finished speaking.

Huang Qingling couldn’t help but look at Lin Jing and ask,

“What’s wrong?”

“Do you have something else?”

Lin Jing looked at Huang Qingling, who possessed a demeanor and beauty that could be considered supreme, hesitated for a moment, then asked,

“Now that you’ve awakened, I don’t know where your spirit division has gone?”

Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing and said,

“So you wish to find ‘her’…”

“It’s no secret; she’s no longer here.”

Lin Jing was taken aback upon hearing this.

Huang Qingling continued,

“When you were teleported away, you encountered a crisis mid-journey.

‘She’ exhausted all her strength to protect you from being devoured by the spatial tunnel, ensuring you could land safely.”

“But afterwards, she completely dissipated due to the exhaustion of all her power.”

Lin Jing stood there, dumbfounded, upon hearing this.

He had thought that once Huang Qingling’s true self awakened, her spirit division would merge back into her.

It turned out that during the transmission to help him leave, she had completely dissipated in order to save him.

“So it turns out… it was like this…” Lin Jing murmured to himself.

At this moment, Lin Jing felt an immense sense of loss.

Although the true Huang Qingling was in front of him, it was the spirit division that had lived with Lin Jing for a time, shared in the small moments of life, and possessed genuine feelings that was the true Huang Qingling he knew.

When Lin Jing learned that the spirit division of Huang Qingling had fully dissipated for his sake, it was as if a real person who had lived with him for a long time had fallen.

How could such a feeling not distress Lin Jing?

…

Lin Jing left…

As he departed, his gaze was vacant, and even his steps were faltering…

Watching Lin Jing leave in despair, Huang Qingling, seated beneath a tree, couldn’t help feeling a strange sense of discomfort in her heart.

She furrowed her brows and whispered to herself,

“Why?”

“I am me, the spirit division is also me, I have all the memories of the spirit division, why would he still feel this way?”

“Is it… because of… emotions?”

…

…

Half a month later, Huang Qingling had completely refined the Immortal Yuan, and with it, her injuries had improved significantly.

This time, she could intervene multiple times without as many concerns.

After refining the Immortal Yuan, Huang Qingling sorted out all the affairs of the Demon Emperor City and then set off with Lin Jing toward the Land of Immortal Remnants.

It took Lin Jing and Huang Qingling two months to fly from the Demon Emperor City to the entrance of the Land of Immortal Remnants,

which was considerably less time than it took Lin Jing to go to the Demon Emperor City.

Still, it was with Huang Qingling’s help that Lin Jing could travel so swiftly.

Otherwise, at Lin Jing’s own speed, it would probably take the same half a year to reach the entrance of the Land of Immortal Remnants as when he came.

Of course…

Without Lin Jing slowing her down, Huang Qingling could have reached the entrance of the Land of Immortal Remnants in less than a month with her speed.

Huang Qingling’s strength was truly terrifying, not at all like what one would expect of a Mahayana Cultivator.

On the way there, Lin Jing had asked Huang Qingling about her true cultivation level.

For some reason, Huang Qingling trusted Lin Jing remarkably and willingly revealed her cultivation level to him.

It turns out Huang Qingling’s cultivation had reached the Void Immortal Realm long ago, and only her injuries had made her appear to be at the peak of Mahayana.

…

Arriving at the entrance to the Land of Immortal Remnants, Huang Qingling, with Lin Jing in tow, headed straight inside.
