Even though not many people had died in this battle, to the Glory Sect, an extremely important person had died.
"Hais …" Grand Master Yan let out a long sigh. He seemed to have aged a lot. Flicking his robes, a crystal coffin appeared on the ground.
"Initially, this was a crystal sarcophagus that I had prepared for myself. To think that …" Grandmaster Yan shook his head, evidently sorrowful.
The big ancient demon had been suppressed. But this wasn't something to be happy about for Glory Sect.
Grand Master Yan looked at Lin Fan, who was lying quietly in the crystal coffin. That pale face of hers couldn't help but wipe the corner of her eyes. Why did she feel like crying?
Mie Qiongqi lowered his head and carried the crystal coffin on his back. Two energy grid line chains coiled around the coffin on his body.
"Store the crystal coffin in your storage ring." Grand Master Yan said.
Mieqiongqi shook his head, "No, Grand Master doesn't like the darkness. As a disciple, I should bring his body back to the sect."
Grand Master Yan did not say anything more. Flicking his robes, he tore through the void and led the disciples through it.
As for those battle arks, they had long been destroyed in the battle with the big ancient demon.
...
Lin Fan, who was lying in the crystal coffin, frowned. Why the hell did Chick play dead as well?
But thinking about how similar Chick's personality was to him, he understood.
Chick must have known that there were benefits to be had. Hence, he came to accompany Lin Fan to the grave.
The experience points gained from killing the big ancient demon were at a frightening level. A full 60,000,000,000! This was an unimaginable amount of experience points!
Greater celestial middle level.
Greater celestial upper level.
Greater celestial full cultivation.
Under the impact of the immense experience points, the barrier between Heaven and Earth shattered instantly. Those barriers that restricted the cultivation bases of countless martial artists in Dongling Continent crumbled under the impact of the system.
In that instant, Lin Fan felt as though he had entered a mysterious realm.
From the unknowns, there was a majestic door that sealed the Heaven and Earth.
Lin Fan floated in front of the door. Stretching out his hand, he gave it a gentle push. Instantly, the door opened up.
This was a new world, a new realm.
Gradually, Lin Fan's spiritual consciousness got lost in the door.
At this moment, the essence, energy, and spirit also floated away, entering an indescribable state.
...
Glory Sect …
Countless disciples guarded the sect. The descent of the Big Ancient Demon into the world was a shocking piece of news to them.
The Sect Master led all the elders out of the sect to meet the enemy. It was hard to say whether they would survive or not.
Furthermore, the words that the Grandmaster had said to them before he left were as though he was leaving behind his funeral arrangements. How could they not be worried?
And just at this moment, a ripple appeared in the sky. Like a rock falling into the water, the ripples spread out, causing the hearts of countless disciples to twist.
Many pairs of eyes stared at the void. They hoped that everyone could return safely. They hoped to hear the exciting news.
The big ancient demon had been suppressed.
Although everyone had this hope in their hearts, they were also afraid that only a few people would walk out of the spatial rift.
"That's Sect Leader … Sect Leader is fine."
"That's Grand Elder Wuya."
"That's Senior Elder Lu Mingyang …"
...
Looking at the figures one by one, the Glory Sect disciples were getting more and more excited.
The current Peak Master of Jialan Peak, Mu Bingyan, gripped her fists tightly as well. Before the Grandmaster led the elders away, he had left behind some instructions for the sect's funeral arrangements.
Perhaps to Grandmaster Yan, there was no need for such instructions. After all, if the big ancient demon was not killed, no one would be able to escape their fate.
At most, it would be an early or late death.
'Eh …?'
Suddenly, the Glory Sect disciples realized that something was wrong. Everyone who had returned was not missing. But why were the faces of the Grandmaster and the others so grim? Could something big have happened?
Looking at Mieqiongqi's safe return, Zhang Ergou and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
Initially, they did not wish for Mieqiongqi to take part in this mission. After all, it was way too dangerous.
But Mieqiongqi did not listen to them. Instead, he followed Grandmaster Yan's footsteps and headed out together.
"It's a blessing to be able to return safely." Zhang Ergou exclaimed. But what puzzled Zhang Ergou was that Mieqiongqi was carrying a coffin on his back?
When Grandmaster Yan and the others landed, the disciples crowded around them excitedly.
"Grandmaster, has the big ancient demon been destroyed?" The disciples asked in anticipation.
"Yes." Grandmaster Yan nodded his head.
The moment the disciples heard this, they got excited. But in that instant, they realized that not only were there no smiles on the faces of Grandmaster Yan and the others, their faces were grim.
Could it be that something had happened to him?
Or could it be that one of the elders had died in battle?
But when everyone took a closer look, even though there were a few of the Grand Elders who were injured, they did not seem to be in any serious trouble.
But why did Grandmaster Yan and the others have to do this?
"Junior Brother, it's good that you're back." Zhang Ergou and the others came to Mieqiongqi's side and patted him on his shoulders.
"Junior Brother, what's wrong with you? Now that the big ancient demon has been destroyed, why are you still so unhappy? "Zhang Ergou asked curiously.
Even though Junior Brother Slayer had always been cold and aloof, he had never shown such a sad expression before.
"What's wrong? What's this coffin? "Zhang Ergou was confused, not knowing what this was.
Tian Yu was curious as well. Hence, he took a peek inside the crystal coffin. But when he took a look, he was completely dumbfounded.
"Big Senior Brother …!" Tian Yu's body was unsteady as he called out with a trembling voice.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Ergou's face was filled with doubt. What was wrong with Junior Brother Tian Yu? Could he have seen something incredible?
Zhang Ergou walked up to Junior Brother Tian Yu and nudged him a few times. But Junior Brother Tian Yu did not budge at all. He then looked into the crystal coffin. But when he caught a glimpse of what was happening within …
Zhang Ergou fell to the ground and stretched out his trembling hands. That initially rosy face of his had turned pale.
"S-Grandmaster …!" Zhang Ergou could not believe his own eyes. He then stood up and pounced onto the stone coffin, screaming out in a heart-wrenching manner, "MASTER …!!!"
Within the crystal coffin, Lin Fan laid there silently. Chick laid beside him. Lin Fan had long sunk deep into the unseen world, oblivious to everything that was happening outside.
"Mieqiongqi, what in the world is going on?" Zhang Ergou grabbed Mieqiongqi's collar and screamed.
He had not expected things to turn out like this. After not seeing his Grandmaster for a few months, who would have thought that the next time he saw him was his cold, lifeless corpse?
"In order to suppress the big ancient demon, Grandmaster chose to perish together with him." Mieqiongqi gripped his fists tightly.
'Urgh …!'
The moment Zhang Ergou heard this, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. He felt as though his chest had been punched by something.
How … could this be?!
Grandmaster … he's dead …!
If Lin Fan were conscious right now, he would definitely be stumped.
This time around, he might have gone overboard.
Was he really that important in their hearts?
