Chapter 283: Chapter 199 The Ancestor Makes a Move (Request for Monthly Ticket)_4

That bell sound, was indistinguishable from the sound of the Chen Bell.

At most, the usual bell sound felt very ordinary, whereas that one... it actually helped them break free from the horrific influence of the Devil Thought.

"Senior Brother, what’s wrong?"

Bai Yun asked curiously.

Chai Shao briefly explained the situation with the bell sound. frёewebnoѵēl.com

"Really? I was at the Chen Bell Platform, how come I wasn’t affected by that demonic face?"

Bai Yun looked puzzled.

Chai Shao and the others were even more shocked.

Such a wide-reaching influence, even Heavenly Persons couldn’t avoid it.

Even many Inner Sect Disciples were affected and turned on each other.

It was said that Lijian City and the New City also experienced significant chaos.

Chai Shao then asked Li Bozhi and other third-generation disciples; surprisingly, they too were unaffected.

"This is strange."

Chai Shao pondered for a moment, then he said, "I’ll go ask around at the Chores Hall."

So, he immediately left the Bell Platform and headed to the Chores Hall.

After a good half hour, Chai Shao came back, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Senior Brother, what happened?"

Yang Fan hurriedly asked.

"I just went to the Chores Hall and a few other places to ask, many people saw the demonic face in the sky, but they were not affected..."

Chai Shao immediately said.

"Is that so?"

Yang Fan and the others were very surprised.

"I feel that this bell sound might indeed be related to the Chen Bell."

Chai Shao said, "However, it still needs to be verified."

"Senior Brother Chai, I think we shouldn’t verify it, after all, this matter involves the ancient ancestor, and also touches upon Master... Maybe Master already knows."

Yang Fan suddenly said.

"Uh... you make sense."

Hearing this, Chai Shao instantly understood.

They were all elders of the Supreme Hall; of course, they were aware of the existence of the ancient ancestor.

It’s just that they had never seen the ancient ancestor, and the Master never mentioned anything about the ancient ancestor to them; obviously, he didn’t want to talk about it.

If they continued to investigate the source of the bell sound, and the Master blamed them, that would be trouble.

Inside the Bell Tower, the curled-up White Fox slightly opened its eyes, flashing a hint of human-like brilliance, then closed its eyes again.

...

In the Yellow Sand World.

Li Qian, in a Void State, was unaware of the real world’s situation.

After all, under different dimensions and different timeflow speeds, Li Qian’s current level of life simply couldn’t sense what was happening with his other self.

Hiding under the carcass of a monster, Li Qian was avoiding the scorching of the intense sun, occasionally eating some charred, hard and cold meat strips to maintain the energy necessary for his body.

However, the pain emanating from his stomach had gradually numbed him.

Just like this, enduring the agony, Li Qian noticed that the light outside was dimming.

It wasn’t nightfall.

But the blowing sand was slowly burying the monster carcass.

Li Qian hastily struggled to crawl out, then started to dig with both hands.

In the end, the skin of both his hands was worn raw, and blood seeped out.

Compared to the severe stomach pain he had just experienced, this was nothing.

Moreover, with the sun overhead, the sensation of being scorched was even more unbearable.

Unable to bear it, Li Qian hurriedly buried himself again under the carcass; although it was still uncomfortable, it was better than being exposed to the intense sun.

After that, he would go out every so often to clear the sand.

Although eating the carcass meat was painful, at least it allowed him to restore some strength.

Like this, he didn’t know how long it lasted, but Li Qian finally made it through the night.

The hot air gradually cooled down.

However, Li Qian, who had experienced both extremes, was not particularly happy.

In the cold climate, it was equally hard to endure.

Moreover... this time, transitioning from day to night didn’t end his Void State.

It shows that time isn’t necessarily the requisite condition to end the Return to Void.

Could it be the accumulation of food energy?

But he had eaten some meat during this period.

Could it be none of these?

Was the real factor that ended his Void State something else?

Li Qian curled up, beneath him was the cold sand, above was the cold carcass, and the cold wind blew in, making him shiver as though he was in an ice cellar.

In order to not be completely buried by the sand, he still had to clear away the sand every so often.

Clearing away sand in the cold night was also painful.

Because in the cold, his body lost heat quickly.

Thankfully, he kept eating meat from the carcass, which allowed him to regain some strength to sustain the energy needed for his body and not die quickly, but he still felt his body gradually weakening.

Li Qian’s consciousness began to blur.

Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he quickly visualized Eight Prison Yama, starting to cultivate his spirit.

After some practice, he felt his consciousness clear up a bit.

But this also made him more perceptive of the pain his body was in.

Shivering, he began to tear and bite at the meat on the cold carcass again.

He didn’t know how much time had passed; his consciousness became blurrier, when suddenly, he saw a soft light shine through the gaps in the carcass.

It was sunlight.

It was daybreak again.

He had made it through the scorching day and the freezing night...

When that ray of light hit his face, Li Qian’s pale face unexpectedly showed a contented smile; he seemed to feel the warmth and comfortably closed his eyes.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and to his surprise, was back in the underground palace.

He had exited the Void State.

Immediately afterward, a familiar sensation of excruciating pain emerged from his abdomen, then spread throughout his body.
