705 : A Race Against Time

Chapter 705

A Race Against Time
Translated by Yan of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Even though the Qilin Clan’s territory was also located in Xi Jing, they actually resided in a different dimension, an enormous space that the founder of the Qilin Clan opened. After Lin Gu and Lin Ming entered, a huge range of towering mountains appeared before their eyes, just like another world. Their clan members lived among these towering mountains, and the tallest peak was where the Qilin Lord lived.

The two of them didn’t stop. They immediately flew towards the main peak. On their way there, some Qilin Clan members wanted to block their way, but, at that moment, the only ones left behind to guard were some experts who were below Level Eleven. They could only try and stop them for a second before they were sent flying.

They swiftly reached the bottom of the main peak.

According to the information that the mole sent them, Lin ShaoYi was currently in secluded cultivation at the main peak, looking for a chance to break into the Almighty. Under these circumstances, if he was disturbed, not only would he fail, he might also very likely be counterattacked.

Lin Gu controlled his heart, which was beating slightly faster. Just thinking of how Lin ShaoYi would be taken care of very soon and Xiao-er would no longer be in any danger, nor would Lin Ming be pursued to death anymore for bearing the crime of murdering the Qilin Lord, made Lin Gu unable to restrain his excitement.

“Ming, nobody is currently guarding the main peak. Should we go up now?”

Lin Ming’s forehead wrinkled severely, and he looked at the quiet main peak with hesitation. The current peak felt slightly different from how it had before. “We don’t have much time. Let’s go up and see.”

But when they were about to enter the main peak, they suddenly collided with a barrier. A series of brilliant light rays shot out from the barrier, the strong golden light forcing them to retreat a few steps.

Lin Ming’s expression changed. “This is…”

“What is it?” Lin Gu also had an unpleasant premonition.

As if he had realized something, the look on Lin Ming’s face became extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and responded, “Lin ShaoYi actually used the Qilin Lord’s bones. He ground the Qilin Lord’s bones to powder and then used it to create a barrier. Those golden bones contain the energy of the Qilin Lord when he was alive…”

Lin Gu opened his eyes with shock. Lin ShaoYi was actually audacious enough to grind the Qilin Lord’s bones to powder just to guarantee his own safety. This kind of utterly heartless behavior…

“Do the Qilin Clan’s people know of this?”

Lin Ming shook his head, his expression as ugly as ever. “If it was before, I could still be certain of it. But now, I no longer know how the clan members would react if they learn of this.”

“We cannot let Lin ShaoYi succeed!” Lin Gu said with a darkened face.

“I know. Step aside, let me see if I can break through the barrier.” Lin Ming nodded. There was no way he would let Lin ShaoYi succeed either. Even though he had been separated from A-Gu for so many years back then because of the Qilin Lord’s opposition, the Qilin Lord had been kind to him. He had already departed from this world for many years, so there was no way Lin Ming could just stand and watch the Qilin Lord’s bones be trampled on.

After he spoke, Lin Ming immediately unleashed all of his strength. His spiritual energy whipped into a fierce wind; he hadn’t even tried this hard when he was fighting with Lin Tian just then.
