Chapter 1087: Chapter 1107: Name? Your Hand Tells Me_1

"Liberation?"

The Emperor’s Seal hung in mid-air, not attacking further.

This person was already as good as dead.

The previous attack had completely shattered his Primordial Spirit, and now he was merely experiencing a final burst of vigor before death.

Lin Chen asked solemnly, "Was it an immortal who killed everyone and severed the connection of Baishishan Cave World?"

The middle-aged man replied, "I am Duan Yan, the Cave Master of Baishishan Cave World. That immortal suddenly descended upon our Cave World years ago and asked us to suppress something for him, promising us benefits in return."

"We were naturally willing to help an immortal, as who wouldn’t want to ascend to immortality? I agreed and built the sacrificial altar array as she instructed. Then she came."

"She exterminated everyone on Baishishan without hesitation, severing Baishishan Cave World with a single sword strike and causing the Cave World to fall from the Barren Wilderness to the Human World. She then transformed our Primordial Spirits into these neither human nor ghost forms, leaving us with only the instinct to guard this place."

"From then on, we were trapped in agony every day with no chance of reincarnation. As long as this place remains, our Primordial Spirits cannot be liberated... "

Duan Yan’s eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at Lin Chen, "We have been suppressed here for so long, can you tell me what the situation is like now?"

Lin Chen replied, "The immortal who killed you all is now in the Immortal Realm. She once hunted and killed me with her Primordial Spirit. As for the rest, it’s perhaps no different from your time... "

Duan Yan smiled bitterly, "Yes, indeed, the world would be the same without anyone. Who would even care about the disappearance of an insignificant Baishishan Cave World?"

Duan Yan stretched out his hand, and a Void Space Ring flew towards Lin Chen, "Your Majesty the Human Emperor, thank you for helping us escape this endless purgatory. Inside this ring is the Treasure of the Cave - Xuanwu Pendant, which is the transformation of a Xuanwu. Once released, it is as immovable as a mountain. Consider this a token of our gratitude."

Lin Chen was delighted, "Thank you, Cave Master!"

Duan Yan’s body had already shattered more than halfway at this point. He gave Lin Chen a faint smile, filled with infinite vicissitudes and lament, "No Mercy in the Cultivation World, humans are as insignificant as ants, and this so-called Immortal Path... Hahaha!"

A sudden surge of impulsiveness gripped Lin Chen’s heart, and he solemnly bowed, "Safe travels, Cave Master Duan. If there comes a day when I have the power, I will slay that immortal to avenge the people of Baishishan Cave World!"

A relieved smile appeared on Duan Yan’s face, and he respectfully bowed to Lin Chen, "Thank you!"

As Duan Yan bowed, his Primordial Spirit completely shattered, turning into a myriad of Light Points that slowly dissipated in the air.

For a moment, Lin Chen felt a sense of melancholy. Such a powerful Cave World, with so many people in it, had been entirely destroyed by that immortal, who had also imprisoned the Cave Master and others’ Primordial Spirits, leaving them neither human nor ghost...

Indeed, there was No Mercy in the Cultivation World.

As Lin Chen relaxed, his legs suddenly gave way, and he collapsed to the ground. His head spun, and his whole body felt weak.

The side effects of the Berserker Technique were kicking in!

Lin Chen supported himself with his hand on the ground, trying his best to stabilize his body. He recalled the Emperor’s Seal and the Water and Fire Mirror and collected all the Magical Treasures and Spatial Rings used by the Primordial Spirits.

These were the top experts of Baishishan Cave World, and the Magical Treasures they used were naturally extraordinary. Lin Chen wouldn’t surely not pass up such an opportunity to make a fortune.

Lin Chen took a few deep breaths and stuffed a few elixirs into his mouth to calm himself. Only then did he remember the sacrificial altar barrier behind him. He turned to look at it, and his face changed drastically.

The sacrificial altar barrier had unknowingly broken at some point, leaving the altar completely empty.

The head was gone!

Had it escaped?

Lin Chen tentatively called out, "Fairy? Xuanji Fairy?"

A cold, indifferent voice suddenly echoed through the empty main hall, "How do you know my name?"

Lin Chen looked around but saw no one. He thought of the invisibility technique Xuanji had used before, where even his Master couldn’t see her when she was nearby. If she didn’t want to be seen, he naturally wouldn’t be able to see her.

Lin Chen relaxed his body and lay on the ground, panting, "Your hand told me. It’s with me now."

"My hand?"

There was a sudden ripple of emotion in the cold voice. "Where did you find it?"

Lin Chen replied, "In the Valley of Death, one of the Six Forbidden Lands in the Barren Wilderness. Four immortal slaves and numerous undead guards were defending it. Many sects in the Barren Wilderness jointly attacked the Valley of Death, and finally, we broke into the mountain belly, where there was a sacrificial altar identical to this one."

"Everyone tried to break the barrier in vain. The cave was filled with blood fog that would kill anyone who touched it. I used the Water and Fire Mirror to collect the blood fog and corroded the barrier, just like today. And then she stayed with me, even saving my life."

The cold voice asked, "Where is this?"

Lin Chen replied, "This is the Human World, the fallen Baishishan Cave World. The immortal who killed you sealed your body parts in various places, hid your head here, killed everyone else to eliminate any witnesses and made the Cave World fall into the mortal world to prevent you from resurrecting. I originally came back to visit my family and had no idea I would accidentally run into this."

Lin Chen pointed to the sacrificial altar in the center and weakly said, "Fairy, can you destroy this altar completely? Otherwise, your whereabouts will be exposed, and I assume you don’t want anyone to know you escaped, right?"
