Chapter 1310: Chapter 1330 You die in there, don’t blame me for not reminding you_1

It was still the same garden, the same stone pavilion, and the same two people.

But the atmosphere was completely different.

The Demon Emperor, in Lin Yuan’s body, wasn’t very old, one could even call him young. Yet, the gloominess and melancholy emanating from his eyes revealed his current state of loss.

Lin Chen looked at the Demon Emperor with a subtly complex gaze.

As he was defeating the Demon Emperor earlier, Lin Chen had considered whether to take the opportunity to beat him half to death and then capture him to temporarily imprison him.

But, Lin Chen ultimately gave up on that idea.

If he wanted to ascend to immortality, then let him do so. Once Lin Chen mastered the Soul Separation Technique or found someone else who could perform it, he would deal with it then.

As long as a mark was placed, and he didn’t lose them, there wouldn’t be an issue. After all, a similar mark had been placed on him by Qi before, hadn’t it?

"Let the past stay in the past. Don’t overthink it. It’s of no use. What we need to do now is join forces and construct the Connecting Heaven Formation. Currently, both the Human Clan and the demon race have a large number of individuals at the Void stage or the Great Demon Great Fulfillment realm waiting."

The Demon Emperor lifted his head: "What do we need to do?"

"Yin Yang Jade."

Lin Chen replied, "The Connecting Heaven Formation needs to be established on a large piece of Yin Yang Jade. It is said that Yin Yang Jade was produced in the Ancient Mining Field, a region that has always been the territory of the demon race. I assume you should have some?"

The Demon Emperor nodded, "We have Yin Yang Jade. How large of a piece do you need?"

Lin Chen’s eyes brightened, "Circular, diameter larger than a kilometer, thickness more than three meters..."

The Demon Emperor’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, "That big?"

Lin Chen nodded, "This is the minimum requirement. Otherwise, without a sufficiently spacious Formation Pathway, you won’t have enough Immortal Spirit Qi to complete the final step of ascension to immortality. Judging from your tone, you don’t have one?"

The Demon Emperor nodded, "Although we’ve obtained a lot of Yin Yang Jade, we don’t have a piece that large..."

Lin Chen immediately furrowed his brows, "You don’t?"

"We do."

The Demon Emperor looked up, staring into Lin Chen’s eyes, "But it’s not in our possession. It’s in the central area of the Ancient Mining Field. We once investigated it, under a certain area, a layer of a huge Yin Yang Jade..."

"The central area?"

Lin Chen replied with a sigh of resignation, "Are you talking about the Eternal Cemetery?"

"Yes."

The Demon Emperor looked at Lin Chen and said, "But there are many living corpses of giant beasts in that area. It won’t be easy to extract the Yin Yang Jade. You’ve been to the Eternal Cemetery before, you should be aware of the difficulty."

Lin Chen frowned, "Are you sure there’s a huge piece of Yin Yang Jade under the Eternal Cemetery?"

"I’m sure."

The Demon Emperor replied, "When the demon race first discovered the Yin Yang Jade layer, the area of the Eternal Cemetery was not that large, and some of the rock layers were exposed outside. However, we have collected enough Yin Yang Jade, and didn’t consider it scarce, we never made a move to disturb that single layer of Yin Yang Jade."

"Who could have guessed that the area of the Eternal Cemetery would expand? By the time we considered extracting more Yin Yang Jade, the Eternal Cemetery had expanded its range, including the entire area."

"At that point, we naturally had to give up. After all, Yin Yang Jade can be mined from other places as well, just not as large. Generally speaking, for use in array formation or other purposes, who needs such a huge piece of Jade, anyway?"

Lin Chen considered for a moment, "Well, give me the location of the Yin Yang Jade then. I’ll go have a look."

The Demon Emperor reminded him, "Even though you’ve defeated me, that doesn’t mean you can defeat those vicious living corpses of the giant beasts hidden in the dark fog. Their brutality far exceeds that of the great witches or half-immortals..."

Lin Chen smiled, "I’m aware of my limits."

The Demon Emperor coldly said, "If you die in there, don’t blame me for not warning you."

Lin Chen laughed, "If I died, wouldn’t you be quite pleased?"

The Demon Emperor looked at Lin Chen with a subtle gaze. "The array diagram is now in your hands, and it’s you who are communicating with the immortals. If you died, what would happen to the Connecting Heaven Formation, how would the others ascend to immortality?"

Lin Chen burst into laughter, "Isn’t that just perfect? Everyone should be harmonious, diligently cultivate, and ascend together. It’s so much better this way."

"The Barren Wilderness is vast with abundant resources, whether it’s the Human Clan or the demon race, we’ve only occupied a small part of it. There’s no crisis of survival, so why must we fight to the death?"

The Demon Emperor remained silent.

At this point, and with the accomplishment of rebuilding the Connecting Heaven Formation being credited solely to Lin Chen, he had benefited not just all human cultivators, but also the demon race. After all, Lin Chen had clarified that once the passage was reopened, both the Human Clan and demon race would be treated without discrimination.

His battle with Lin Chen was due to his unwillingness to accept his previous defeat.

He had lost ten thousand years ago, which had disrupted his grand plans. Now, he naturally wanted to defeat the Human Emperor, to prove that he was the strongest.

It was an obsession.

Unfortunately, he lost.

Since he had lost and the war was over, the Demon Emperor naturally had no desire to oppose Lin Chen anymore.

He didn’t harbor any hatred towards Lin Chen. What he wanted was victory, not to kill Lin Chen.

If he truly did something to Lin Chen that prevented the construction of the Connecting Heaven Formation, he might indeed become everyone’s common enemy.

"For the location map, you need to find Nalan Wushuang. My injuries are severe and I need Closed Door Cultivation to heal. I will issue an order letting her temporarily manage the demon race..."
