Am I fragile?

Chapter 505: Am I Spiritually Fragile?

Crimson flames incinerated the heavens, burning away the black mist.

Lin Fan was unleashing his Precious Techniques, various Divine Abilities, and boiling runes, like a surging ocean sweeping forth with immense power.

“Zheng!”

A sword came from the west, its Immortal Light vast, cleaving through one large hand after another in the darkness, pulverizing them all into blood mist.

However, these beings seemed tireless and fearless. After a furious roar, they attacked again, forming a encirclement.

“Qiang!”

A long spear pierced through the Void Realm, gleaming with dark light, utterly chilling, as if it could shatter the great Universe and burst stars.

Lin Fan was shocked; the strangeness and ominousness were truly terrifying. Even with their Primordial Spirits gone, these beings still possessed supreme runes and Divine Power within their Physical Bodies.

Moreover, the longer one stayed in this place, the more unsettling it became, as if something even more horrifying would appear at any moment.

“Dong!”

With a loud bang, wisps of black mist once again surged from all directions, sending a chill down one’s Primordial Spirit.

Amidst it, ghostly wails rose and fell, as if the gates of Hell had opened, lighting up one lantern after another, blood-red, illuminating all the heavens.

Lin Fan stared, noticing dense shadows appearing, thousands upon thousands, endless, rushing towards them.

This sight was chilling. There were too many shadows, all ancient beings who had inexplicably lost their Primordial Spirits, and all of them were powerful.

“Boom!”

Lin Fan felt he could not stay any longer. A three-legged golden cauldron appeared, radiating billions of Immortal Lights. He directly used his supreme Immortal Artifact, preparing to break out.

Instantly, the Immortal Artifact swept out an unparalleled beam of light, tearing open the dark land and piercing a path through it.

With a whoosh, Lin Fan leaped in, disappearing from this place.

“That is…”

However, the moment he left, he vaguely saw an ancient ship, utterly black and stained with blood, sailing towards them.

It was massive and majestic, drifting in the Void Realm, existing since ancient times. Its hull alone was tens of thousands of miles long, a breathtaking sight.

Most terrifyingly, the crimson blood on some parts of the deck was shocking, imbued with a strange and desolate aura, having existed for an unknown period.

Even as the long river of time washed over it and the years changed, it had never dried up, always maintaining its luster and vitality, staining the ancient ship.

“The Guiding Ancient Ship!” Lin Fan’s expression changed abruptly. He immediately recognized it as a ship that drifted in the Boundary Sea.

Its origin was immense, unimaginable; at least a True Immortal could command it and explore it, but it was also extremely perilous.

From ancient times until now, countless beings had died on the black ancient ship. Once encountered, it almost certainly meant death.

Finally, Lin Fan fled. For now, he did not want to be entangled in Karma with it; it was far more terrifying than an army of thousands.

He strongly suspected that the black mist, the strangeness, and the ominousness from earlier were brought by this ship, which was manipulating things from behind.

…

“Crack!”

On the other side, the Void Realm twisted, a rift opened, and Lin Fan emerged from it, still feeling a lingering fear.

He then landed in a mountain range, surrounded by towering ancient trees and lush greenery, which greatly eased his mind.

“Where have I arrived?” Lin Fan wondered.

Clearly, he was no longer in the original Dragon Nest but had entered an unfamiliar ancient land. He just didn't know if he was still in the Immortal Ancient Era.

Fortunately, his powerful Divine Sense swept out, quickly obtaining the information he wanted: he was still within the Immortal Ancient Era.

Otherwise, if he left before obtaining several Opportunities, he would suffer a tremendous loss!

“Whoosh!”

A flash of ethereal light, and a beautiful figure appeared. It was Qing Yi. Seeing that they were in a safe place, Lin Fan released her.

She was graceful, with snow-white skin and a slender figure, but her clothes were stained with specks of blood, some her own, some from enemies.

At that moment, as soon as Qing Yi emerged, she urgently asked, “Are you alright?”

“What could possibly be wrong with me? Silly girl, can’t you see? We’ve already left that dreadful place and are out.”

Lin Fan smiled, pinching her soft cheek, while actually treating her wounds and removing the ominousness that had clung to her.

“Don’t pinch… Oh… I’m not a silly girl…” Qing Yi batted away the mischievous hand, but also breathed a sigh of relief.

“You don’t believe me when I say you’re silly. If I hadn’t left a mark on you and sensed the danger, you wouldn’t even know how you died.”

Lin Fan complained. He had only been in seclusion for a while and almost ran into big trouble, which gave him quite a scare.

Fortunately, he arrived in time and rescued her from the brink of death, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Moreover, he had come to realize that Shi Hao, who cultivated Immortal Qi in one lifetime in the Immortal Ancient Era, had extraordinarily good luck.

He had gone on the black ancient ship once and entered the Guiding Ancient Palace another time, and both times he returned alive without anyone protecting him—it was nothing short of a miracle.

It was no exaggeration to say that he was an unkillable cockroach, because ordinary people encountering either of those situations would almost certainly never return.

“I’m sorry for making you worry.” Qing Yi lowered her head, feeling a sense of shame, like a child who had made a mistake.

“Alright, alright, I was just joking with you. You actually took it seriously.” Lin Fan consoled her.

Qing Yi was not like Yue Chan; she was very sensitive to everything, believing that she would disappear one day, so he did not want to put too much pressure on her.

“But you still risked danger to save me…”

“It’s only right for us to protect our little wife. Don’t overthink it.” Lin Fan’s tone was gentle, telling her not to worry.

Qing Yi was a little speechless. This guy was starting to coax her like a child again. Was her inner self really that fragile?

However, for once, she didn't retort, and the corners of her mouth curved upwards, as if she had eaten honey.

“By the way, where are we now?” Qing Yi asked, finally looking at the surrounding scenery, which was lush and green.

Undoubtedly, they had emerged. The environment here was excellent, with abundant Spiritual Qi and no ominous aura.

“The Dark Realm!” Lin Fan replied.

This Minor Thousand Worlds was known as a place with extremely severe curses, very famous in the Immortal Ancient Era.

It had vast territories and numerous races, but almost all of them had been “demonized.” To be precise, they had all lost their sentience, retaining only their instincts.

Therefore, apart from foreign Cultivators, the indigenous people generally did not come to the Dark Realm.

“Coincidentally, there’s an Opportunity in this realm. I’ll take you to train a bit and stabilize your cultivation.” Lin Fan said.

The next moment, he enveloped her, took a step, and all the mountains and lakes receded, instantly arriving tens of thousands of miles away.

This speed was beyond imagination!

Ahead, after crossing a broken cliff, the two arrived at a lake, with several dilapidated palaces visible not far from the shore.

“This lake is too dark, so chilling it makes one’s soul tremble. Is this the good fortune you spoke of?” Qing Yi was puzzled.

Upon arriving here, she felt a wave of discomfort, her whole body felt as if being cut by knives, her skin stinging, as a terrifying Evil Qi from the lake pierced into her bones.

By all appearances, this was a desolate place, not at all like where a great Dao Opportunity would be found.

“This is the Chaos Mosquito Lake, where one can refine their Physical Body, but…” Lin Fan paused, a sly look appearing on his face.

“Chaos Mosquito Lake! You’re not going to throw me into the lake to feed the mosquitoes, are you?” Qing Yi shrank her delicate body, unable to help but take a few steps back.

She had heard of this place; even Heavenly Gods dared not approach too closely, as it contained terrifying things.

However, how could a Divine Fire Cultivator outrun a Sect Master? Lin Fan waved his sleeve, and her entire body flew up.

“Plop!”

Qing Yi shrieked, falling directly into the black lake water. Lin Fan followed closely, diving to the bottom of the lake with her.
