"Sigh. If the Heavens give me another chance, I will never go to that secret realm again, let alone touch that thing. I regret it so much …"
Katerama looked at the sky above the Ancestral Land and lamented. His eyes were full of regret. It could be seen that he really regretted his actions. However, everything could no longer be reversed. Slowly, Katerama's spirit force completely disappeared.
"Woo woo woo …"
In the instant that Katerama disappeared, one agonized cry after another rang out from the depths of Invincible. Their cries were the same as Katerama's, filled with regret and unwillingness. But there was nothing they could do. In the end, they followed Katerama and disappeared as well. Right now, the only person left within the ancestral grounds was Linley, sitting there by himself.
"Sigh! There's no such thing as regret in this world. However, I will help you fulfill your wishes. I will definitely bring the Elves back to the Immortal World. Rest in peace! "
It turned out that Linley had already woken up when Katarama disappeared. However, the reason why he didn't wake up was because he didn't want to see Katarama disappear and not be able to lend a helping hand. Therefore, when Katarama died, the only thing he could help them was to bring the Elves to the Immortal Realm, find Katarama's parents, and reunite them.
"Phew …"
Lin Ray heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the place where he had stayed for five months. Although he didn't take a close look, he missed this place. After all, this was where he broke through to the Heaven Rank. The most memorable thing was that someone had sacrificed herself to help him. This kindness was something that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
"Haha, it's time to go back. Five months have passed. I wonder if Cullen has been slacking off?"
Lin Ray's eyes revealed a worried expression. He wondered if Cullen's naughty little disciple had been cultivating properly during the five months that he was away.
"Time has changed. Yin and Yang have reversed. Let's go!"
Lin Ray recited the incantation that Kargal had taught him when he entered. In an instant, Lin Ray's body began to fade out of the ancestral land. When he reappeared, Lin Ray was already at the place where he came from.
"Phew … I'm finally back!"
Looking at the familiar room in front of him, Lin Ray knew that he had returned to the Dark Forest.
"Zhi ya." At this moment, the door to the room opened, and a dignified child walked in. When he saw Linley, tears welled up in his eyes, and he ran into Linley's arms, sobbing as he said, "I'm sorry.
"Master, where have you been all these days? I couldn't find you. I asked Mother, but she wouldn't tell me.. I thought you didn't want me."
"Hehe, how could that be? I'm still waiting to see if your cultivation has improved. Logically speaking, with your cultivation speed, you should have already been consecrated or even fasted by now!"
After he saw that the person who had come in was the disciple he had been missing. he had been yearning for day and night.
"Uh … Master, you just came back and need to rest. I'll have Mother clean up a room for you. You can rest first!"
When Cullen heard Linley's words, his expression changed. He had just entered the room, but he couldn't sit still and wanted to leave. A strange expression appeared on his face as he spoke to Linley.
"Hmph, you brat. I knew that without my supervision, you wouldn't cultivate properly. Come, let me see what your cultivation is now. If I find out that your cultivation hasn't improved at all, hmph."
"Swoosh!" Hearing Linley's words, Cullen immediately used up all of his energy and his cultivation base, fleeing as fast as he could.
"Hmph, want to run? Why don't you think about your Master's cultivation and yours? How dare you be so impudent in front of me? Come back here! "
Lin Ray wasn't in a hurry to stop Cullen. Instead, he waited until Cullen reached the door. Lin Ray waved his hand and sent out a stream of spirit energy. A large hand grabbed Cullen's body and pulled him back.
"Don't move. If you move, I can't guarantee what I'll do."
When Lin Ray threatened Cullen, Cullen, who had originally wanted to escape, immediately calmed down. He sat down obediently and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Lin Ray released his divine sense and scanned Cullen's body. What he saw made him choke with anger. In the past few months, Cullen had only reached the peak of Foundation Establishment. Logically speaking, with Cullen's talent, it wouldn't be too much to say that he had reached the fasting realm. But now …
"You … You … You actually … Cough, cough, cough …"
In an instant, Lin Ray's expression changed. He didn't expect Cullen to not have cultivated for the past few months. He was so angry that he couldn't speak coherently.
"Kid, let me tell you. Even if your mother came today, she wouldn't be able to save you. See if I don't beat you until you know how to cultivate alone."
As he spoke, Lin Ray used a hand of spirit energy to grab Cullen and put him on his leg. Then he slapped Cullen's butt.
"Pa!" Lin Ray's hand passed through the artifact and into Cullen's butt. A loud slap sounded out.
"Ah … No, Master, don't hit me. I won't dare to do it again!"
"Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa …"
Suddenly, the sound of Lin Ray's hand hitting Cullen's butt echoed in the room. Cullen wanted to die. At this time, his voice was hoarse from shouting.
"Hmph, now you know it hurts. Let me tell you, if you slack off again, I won't hit you like this!"
"Ah, really, Master?" Cullen, who was lying on Lin Ray's leg, asked with a smile after hearing Lin Ray's words.
"Yes, I won't hit you anymore. I will throw you directly into the Death Mountain Range and let you know what it means to be on the brink of life and death. I will let you know what it means to not cultivate properly. You won't be treated well there. Once you're there, there will be countless monsters to play with you."
Lin Ray smiled and said to Cullen, who was lying on his leg. His tone was gentle, but Cullen could hear a trace of ruthlessness in his gentle tone, which made him shudder.
"No … No … Don't do that, Master. I will cultivate properly in the future and won't slack off anymore. Don't throw me into the Death Mountain Range, okay?"
Cullen said to Lin Ray in his usual coquettish manner, but it obviously didn't work this time.
"Hmph, I'm serious. Even if you cultivate properly, I will still do the same. Not only you, but I will also do the same to your four senior brothers and sisters. This is a test for the few of you when you leave the mountain in the future."
At this point, Linley picked up Cullen who was lying on his lap and said earnestly, "Kid, you have to walk your own path in the future. Master can't always be by your side. Therefore, Master can only rest assured if you have great power!"
After saying that, Lin Ray didn't say anything else to Cullen. Instead, he stood up and went to his room. Lin Ray locked Cullen in his room to reflect on his mistakes.
"Fellow Daoist, aren't you going a bit too far? You're even younger than Cullen. If you do this, won't things backfire?"
Just as Lin Ray left the room, Cullen, who had been standing outside and eavesdropping, spoke to Lin Ray with a pained expression.
"Hehe, so it's Cullen! After all, I have my reasons for doing this. Besides, what's wrong with being young? Aren't I still young? I was able to kill monster beasts in the mountain range when I was 14 years old. I'm almost 17 years old now. Look at my current achievements. They are all due to my hard work. When wasn't I on the verge of life and death? Look, aren't I still fine now? "
Lin Ray knew that doing this would make Cullen unhappy, but even if he was unhappy, he would still do it. After all, he was Cullen's master.
"What? You're saying that you're only 16 years old? Not even 17 years old yet?"
At that moment, Cullen seemed to have heard something unbelievable. His eyes widened and his face was filled with disbelief.
"Yes, I'm 16 years old. That's why I can't let Cullen live in a greenhouse. This isn't a good thing for him. For example, my other four disciples have all gone out to train. The sooner this happens, the better. That's why I hope that you won't interfere in this matter in the future. This is a form of respect for me and Cullen."
Cullen didn't say anything else because even if he said more, it would be pointless if Cullen didn't agree.
"N-No, no. I want to apologize for what happened before. I'm not worried about leaving Cullen to you. If Cullen doesn't listen to you in the future, teach him a lesson."
"Ugh …"
Cullen thought that Cullen wouldn't agree, but the result was unexpected. He didn't expect Cullen to inform him and he seemed to be very happy.
"Alright, since you, as his mother, have said so, I have nothing else to worry about."
"Alright, since you've just returned, why don't I find a room for you to rest?"
Upon hearing Cullen's words, Lin Ray immediately rejected. However, it wasn't that he wasn't tired. It was just that Red Lotus's death wasn't far away. That was why the most important thing right now was to refine pills for Red Lotus and help her survive.
"No buts, I'm not tired. But can you find me an uninhabited cave? I don't want to be disturbed when I'm refining pills, so …"
"Oh, alright. I happen to have an uninhabited cave here. Besides, there isn't anyone there, so it's just right for you to refine pills."
Cullen led Lin Ray to the back mountain where the Elf Race resided. Soon, Lin Ray arrived at the cave. Lin Ray sensed an abundance of spiritual energy and the surrounding environment was beautiful beyond compare. It would be great if Red Lotus could wake up here.
