Chapter 649 Wings of Freedom

Upon hearing the old man's words, Li Lingxiao cast aside his momentary distractions.

Seeing this, the old man spoke, "I know what you are thinking. I, too, was once a generation's Prodigy in the Lower Realm."

"In the Lower Realm, I was admired by thousands, living a life of utter freedom, doing whatever I pleased."

"But ever since my Ascension, I was captured and brought here to dig in this Immortal Crystal mine."

"And this digging has lasted a lifetime; now, I have reached my end."

"Back then, it wasn't that I hadn't thought about escaping this place; I even tried several times, but it was clearly useless. Their methods are beyond what we can compare to."

"There is simply no way to escape, although it is not lacking that some people have managed to."

"But those are basically people blessed with great Luck; they never truly belonged here."

"As for people like me, there are many here. They are all the same as us, having similar experiences, and now they have all become like me."

"When I was young and cultivating, I had dreams of becoming the number one in the world!"

"There was no other reason; I simply refused to lose, and I just thought being the number one in the world was cool!"

"I imagine the position of number one in the world must feel great to attain!"

"It was just that kind of simple and pure reason. Many people digging here achieved it, and I, too, became that so-called number one in the world in the Lower Realm."

"After becoming number one in the world, my inner desires grew, so I thought about coming to the Immortal Realm to explore and see what it was like."

"The result was ending up in this state."

"Now, even if I regret it, it's useless and meaningless. Even if I had the chance to see my past self,"

"I understand that even if I personally told my younger self that the Immortal Realm must not be approached,"

"the high-spirited 'him' would not believe that fate is like this."

Li Lingxiao was quite moved upon hearing this; some things are indeed like that.

"I understand, Senior."

Seeing Li Lingxiao's expression, the old man knew this guy certainly wouldn't give up. He himself had been the same back then, having heard the advice of so-called Seniors.

Even so, he still wanted to try. He saw the shadow of his former self in him.

Just like that, that's good. You must escape.

The old man was silent for a moment. "Kid, you must go and experience the outside world for us."

At this moment, some of the people around all looked at Li Lingxiao one after another.

They all clenched their fists and reached out toward Li Lingxiao's direction; their actions explained everything.

They all saw their own shadows in Li Lingxiao's figure.

The hope they couldn't fulfill, they didn't want to see it buried; instead, they wanted someone to inherit it and break this situation.

Seeing this scene, Li Lingxiao said, "Mm, rest assured, Seniors, I will definitely get out."

And that night, Li Lingxiao began his plan.

He was going to escape this time.

He already had a plan, but just as the Seniors said, the most critical thing was actually Luck.

The night always buries some unknown secrets.

And just at this moment, this Immortal Crystal mine area suddenly became brightly lit.

"Someone is escaping! Someone is escaping! Come quickly!"

Seeing this scene, the old man thought, Has it started? Kid, you must get out!

The others felt the same.

Let me, this old man, help you once more.

After saying this, the surroundings were filled with yellow sand and mist. What was going on? Was someone helping him?

And it wasn't just that old man; the others were the same.

But this only lasted for a moment.

A person stood in the sky, let out a cold snort, and said, "Futile struggle."

"Another one trying to escape? You don't take me seriously at all."

"Watch how I deal with you this time."

Having said that, he vanished from the spot and headed toward Li Lingxiao's direction.

Li Lingxiao's plan had actually been plotted for a long time and was very seamless.

Some time passed, and no news of Li Lingxiao being captured came back.

Seeing this, there was some hope in the old man's eyes. This guy had a chance; under normal circumstances, he would have been caught and brought back long ago.

Yet now, no news had come back.

But at this moment, Li Lingxiao's situation was actually not good; he was about to be cornered.

He also had various degrees of injuries on his body.

And the person behind him felt like he was just toying with him.

He himself couldn't hold on much longer. This was the fatal gap in Realm, like a chasm. This was also the reason why the Seniors could never escape.

Was this to be his fate as well? But it was only his first time; he still had a chance.

It was too early to give up now; at the very least, he had to exhaust all his potential first.

The person behind him saw that he still wouldn't give up and found it interesting.

"I'll see how long you can hold on."

However, in the end, Li Lingxiao couldn't hold on. This time, it would have to be like this; he had accepted his fate for this time.

But just at this moment, an old man with an immortal appearance appeared beside Li Lingxiao.

"I didn't expect to encounter an Immortal Body like you here. It really was completely unexpected. It seems we are quite fated."

The man who had come to catch Li Lingxiao saw the old man who had suddenly appeared in front of him.

For a moment, he dared not act rashly.

"Senior, this person belongs to our Immortal Crystal mine. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to do this? We have people up above, too."

The old man snorted coldly, "Do you think this old man would fear your petty Immortal Crystal mine faction? If you don't leave now, I will make you stay here."

Seeing this, the man immediately left. He didn't want to lose his life here.

The Aura on the suddenly appeared old man was no joke; they were not figures of the same dimension. Just a trace of the old man's breath made him break into a cold sweat.

The old man looked at Li Lingxiao, "Kid, come back with me. It's a pity for your Immortal Body to be here."

Seeing this, Li Lingxiao didn't expect to have such an opportunity. He had never mentioned that he was an Immortal Body.

The Immortal Crystal mine side wouldn't care about such things.

The next morning, it seemed that one of the miners was missing, but no one mentioned it.

The old man looked into the distance, "Is that so? Kid, you got out, huh? Go, use those wings of freedom of yours to stir up the winds and clouds. We are rooting for you."

Some time passed again.

During this period, Su Yu and Ling Wanqing were basically visiting friends and taking a tour of some old places.

Finally, they also went to the Southern Region to take a look.

Now, all the things they wanted to do had been completed.

They also announced the news of their secluded cultivation in the Star Sea Sect. With their current Realm, it was perfectly normal for them to go into secluded cultivation for a few hundred years.

So they could safely leave this place.

Ling Wanqing spoke, "Let's go; it's time for us to head to the Immortal Realm."

Su Yu nodded. Regarding the choice of location in the Immortal Realm, Su Yu also had a target; he would go to that place.
