After that.
Li Mingwu turned his head to the Yan Family’s senior ancestor and said,
“Yan Daoyou, didn’t you say before that the Five Elements main hall poses no danger, and that Lin Daoyou has even gone inside once?”
“How about letting Lin Daoyou go in first this time?”
Upon hearing this, the Yan Family’s senior ancestor frowned slightly and then looked at Lin Jing.
Lin Jing nodded to the Yan Family’s senior ancestor and then opened his mouth to say,
“The Five Elements main hall indeed poses no danger.
Since Li Daoyou is worried, then let me go in first.”
Seeing this, the Yan Family’s senior ancestor also nodded slightly to Lin Jing:
“Alright.”
“Then you go ahead.”
“But, be extremely careful,” the Yan Family’s senior ancestor added after finishing his sentence as a reminder.
Lin Jing nodded and then walked towards the Formation in the middle under everyone’s watchful eyes.
Just as he stood firm within the Formation, Lin Jing immediately felt the pulling force of the teleportation.
As the pulling force grew stronger, within moments, Lin Jing’s entire form vanished from the Formation, teleported away.
…
Inside the Five Elements main hall.
The Teleportation Array at the entrance, silent for many years, suddenly lit up with a glow, growing brighter and brighter.
Not until it illuminated the entire main hall did the light slowly fade away.
When the light had completely dissipated, Lin Jing appeared above the Formation.
Returning to the Five Elements main hall, Lin Jing first swept his gaze around.
The main hall hadn’t changed at all, it was still the same as before.
The three platforms which had lost their function still stood there.
And behind the platforms, the gigantic statue of the Five Elements Ancestor still stood tall and imposing.
Following that.
?????.??
Lin Jing walked out of the Formation and headed towards the statue.
After making a round around the statue, Lin Jing came behind it, where the Teleportation Array to the Five Elements Ruins was located.
This Formation was also unchanged from last time.
After making a round of the great hall, Lin Jing then returned to the front, waiting for another person to enter.
It wasn’t long before.
The Teleportation Array lit up once more, and after the light faded, another person appeared.
This person was none other than the True Dragon Island’s Island Master, Dragon Daoren.
Upon entering, Dragon Daoren first swept his gaze around and then looked towards Lin Jing at the front.
Then.
He walked over to Lin Jing.
Even though Dragon Daoren seemed harmless at that moment, Lin Jing still kept his guard up in secret.
Approaching Lin Jing, Dragon Daoren appraised him for a moment then spoke,
“Lin Daoyou, the last time I saw you, you were still at the Nascent Soul Stage.
I didn’t expect you to have reached Divinity Transformation by now.”
“Such speed is truly astonishing.”
“It seems you’ve encountered quite a few fortunes, Lin Daoyou.”
For some reason, as he talked, Dragon Daoren took a step closer, shortening the distance between them and Lin Jing.
Lin Jing’s brows furrowed slightly, then he discreetly stepped back two paces and spoke,
“Dragon Daoyou jests.
To reach the Cultivation of Divinity Transformation, which of us hasn’t had great fortunes?
“Even you, Dragon Daoren, must have had your share of opportunities.”
Seeing Lin Jing step back, Dragon Daoren didn’t come any closer but instead took a step back and laughed:
“What Lin Daoyou said is true.”
“Anyone who has reached our realm must have had great fortunes.”
“It was a lapse of judgment on my part, apologies…”
“It doesn’t matter,” Lin Jing replied succinctly.
Following that.
Lin Jing no longer paid attention to Dragon Daoren, who, knowing when to back off, didn’t say anything further.
The two of them just continued to watch the Teleportation Array.
Before long, the Teleportation Array glowed once again, signifying that another person had been teleported in.
This time, the one who was teleported in was Bai Yi.
After entering, just like Dragon Daoren, Bai Yi first scanned the entire great hall.
After scanning, he then looked towards the two men.
Next, Bai Yi walked towards them.
After approaching, Bai Yi came to stand beside Lin Jing.
Then.
Bai Yi leaned in close to Lin Jing and spoke,
“Dragon Daoren may seem harmless, but in fact, he’s the most scheming of all, and he’s also skilled at divination, knowing how to seek advantage and avoid harm.
You must be extra cautious around him.”
When Bai Yi said this, he didn’t lower his voice deliberately; on the contrary, he looked provocatively at Dragon Daoren.
Obviously, his words were a warning to Lin Jing, as well as a jab at Dragon Daoren.
Dragon Daoren’s face turned sour upon hearing Bai Yi’s words.
He spoke directly, his voice cold, to Bai Yi,
“Bai Daoyou, although I’ve formed an alliance with Li Mingwu, it’s merely to enter these Five Elements Ruins.”
“If because of this, you slander me, then I have nothing more to say.”
Bai Yi looked at Dragon Daoren with cold eyes and sneered,
“Heh…
whether it’s slander or not, you know very well in your heart.”
After Bai Yi spoke, the aura around both men surged instantly, setting them in opposition to each other…
…
…
Whether it was slander or not, not only Bai Yi and Dragon Daoren knew, but also in that moment, Lin Jing understood as well.
Originally.
When Dragon Daoren seemingly moved closer unintentionally, Lin Jing was already somewhat displeased and had therefore moved back.
Fortunately, Dragon Daoren did not continue to advance, and Lin Jing let it go.
However.
After Bai Yi’s comment, Lin Jing became instantly vigilant.
And as Bai Yi and Dragon Daoren faced off, Lin Jing quietly focused his Soul Spirit, meticulously scanning himself from head to toe.
After one thorough check, he discovered something unusual in one corner of his robe.
It was an extremely hidden and faint aura.
This aura was so well concealed that, were it not for the fact that Lin Jing’s own Cultivation was at the seventh layer of Divinity Transformation, and he had consumed the Jade Soul Algae, thereby enhancing his Soul Spirit a bit more,
