Chapter 1056: Chapter 1055: The Silhouette of a Father Chapter 1056: Chapter 1055: The Silhouette of a Father Fire King moved with incredible speed, grabbing Fang Lin and rushing directly into the mountain.

As they entered the mountain, both felt an unusual presence, a terrifying Demon Qi faintly emanating from beneath the mountain.

“Indeed it is true, the missing Demon Saint was indeed suppressed under this mountain. Who could it be that managed to suppress a mighty Demon Saint? It’s unbelievable,” Fire King said with a look of astonishment as he surveyed the entire peak.

After Fang Lin entered the mountain, his expression changed, as if he could vaguely hear a voice calling to him, compelling him to go forward.

This feeling was very strange. Fang Lin did not know where the voice was coming from, why it was echoing in his ears, or even what it was calling out for.

Boom~

The loud noise came as the assault from the Beast Cauldron struck the mountain peak, but a highly unusual essence flowed out from within the mountain effortlessly neutralizing the attack of the Beast Cauldron.

Seeing this, Fire King immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

“Fang Lin, now I’ve saved your life. You should be very grateful to me. Don’t let me down,” Fire King said, patting Fang Lin on the head.

Fang Lin appeared dazed, his face a mix of bewilderment and confusion.

Noticing this, Fire King frowned slightly, realizing that something was off with Fang Lin.

“Kid, are you bewitched?” the Old Dried Corpse’s voice rose from within, but Fang Lin did not hear it either.

Or rather, he heard it but was unable to respond, with only the faint, obscure voice echoing in his ears.

Suddenly, Fang Lin moved, breaking free from Fire King’s control, and began walking towards a certain direction at a leisurely pace.

Seeing this, Fire King reached out to grab Fang Lin again, but unexpectedly, an unknown force separated them, and no matter how he stretched out his hand, he could never grasp Fang Lin.

This turn of events caused Fire King’s face to change dramatically, and he exerted his strength mightily, trying to break through the barrier.

Bang!

Unexpectedly the force was so strong, far beyond Fire King’s expectations. His attempt to break through forcefully backfired, resulting in all his power being rebounded, sending him staggering backward repeatedly.

“Damn it!” Fire King looked troubled, powerless, and he could only watch as Fang Lin slowly walked away, disappearing from his field of vision.

As for Fire King himself, his trouble had only just begun.

…

“Kid, wake up quickly!” the Old Dried Corpse called out continuously, very anxiously, trying to awaken Fang Lin.

Unfortunately, Fang Lin looked blank, his legs moving unconsciously, clearly not under his own control. It was some force that was pulling Fang Lin, directing him towards a certain place.

The Old Dried Corpse was in a state of extreme anxiety, and if he could act, he would have already done so to wake Fang Lin forcibly and taken him away.

But at the moment, being within this mountain, the Old Dried Corpse knew that acting rashly would immediately result in being suppressed by the mountain peak. Then not only would he find himself in dire straits, but Fang Lin would also be implicated.

All said and done, the mountain was too mysterious, harboring a power that even the Old Dried Corpse greatly dreaded and dared not trifle with.

As for Fang Lin’s current situation, the Old Dried Corpse could only constantly pay attention.

Soon, Fang Lin arrived at the mountainside, where the path was rugged and the boulders were sharply angular, making it especially difficult to traverse.

Fang Lin’s feet performed an odd stepping pattern, leaping from rock to rock with agility like an Ape Monkey from the mountain.

A figure was seated cross-legged on a protruding rock on the cliff face, and Fang Lin just so happened to stand right beneath it.

“This is…” Upon seeing that figure, the Old Dried Corpse took a sharp breath, recalling a very long time ago, an extremely terrifying person.

Even as seas change into mulberry fields and countless years pass, with heaven and earth themselves having changed, the mere thought of this person still instilled fear from deep within the heart of the Old Dried Corpse.

Fang Lin looked up and saw the figure above the rock, feeling as if his heart had been heavily struck by something.

That figure was extremely familiar to Fang Lin; in his previous life, before he cultivated, he often gazed upon it.

“Father…” Fang Lin murmured to himself, clarity returning to his eyes.

In that moment, the Old Dried Corpse inside Fang Lin’s Nine Palace Bag seemed to be sealed by a force, rendered completely unable to perceive the slightest bit of the outside world.

“Fang Lin, you’ve arrived,” a gentle and calm voice spoke up as the figure seated on the rock slowly turned around, revealing a kind face with a gentle smile, looking at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was stunned. He wondered if he had fallen into some illusion because how else could he possibly see his father?

He even doubted if he was still alive; had he died already, and was this merely his lingering consciousness before death?

“I am not an illusion; merely a breath that remains here. You must have met your mother by now. Your mother and I have very important matters to attend to, and perhaps you will be able to see us soon,” Fang Qingye spoke.

Since being reborn, Fang Lin had never shed tears, even when facing life-and-death situations multiple times; he had never broken down.

But this time, Fang Lin cried.

“Don’t cry, my child of Fang Qingye. You do not need tears,” Fang Qingye said with a smile, reaching out as if to wipe away Fang Lin’s tears.

Fang Lin wiped away his own tears, his expression regaining composure, “Father, I will definitely find you and mother!”

With a smile, Fang Qingye nodded, “I know you have many questions, and meeting me might bring even more, but that’s okay. Just remember, your mother and I are always watching over you. Something happened in those years; I found the answer, and I discovered something even more serious, but I couldn’t change it, only try to delay its occurrence as much as possible.”

Fang Lin asked hurriedly, “Father, what exactly happened back then? What are you and mother doing? Can I help you?”

Fang Qingye slightly shook his head, “You can’t do it now, and I don’t hope for you to get involved. But maybe you are the key person.”

Fang Lin wanted to ask more, but Fang Qingye did not continue the topic.

“The existence of this mountain is to wait for you. Now that you have come here, I will disappear, and this mountain will also disappear. There’s an Ape Monkey trapped inside the mountain; it’s quite interesting. It owes me a favor, so if you encounter something difficult to resolve, you can ask it for help once,” Fang Qingye said.

Upon hearing this, Fang Lin, though having suspected it, still showed a shocked expression.

The Demon Saint from the previous generation who had disappeared was actually suppressed by his own father.

At the foot of the mountain, an Ape Monkey’s head was moving around boredly, occasionally blowing on a few small flowers that grew not far away.
