Chapter 1243: Chapter 1242: 2 Emperors Missing Chapter 1243: Chapter 1242: 2 Emperors Missing Pill Sect’s backend mountain, outside the ancient cave.
Fang Lin stood here, looking at the stele outside the ancient cave, which bore several names, his own ranking at the very top, towering above all others.
Fang Lin then looked at the ancient cave again, but was unable to see inside the cave unless he used his Heavenly Eye.
Fang Lin stood here for a long while, his brows slightly furrowed, continuously pondering whether or not to enter the ancient cave.
Inside this cave, there was a woman who had survived from ancient times, this woman bore a deep grudge against the Pill Saint Palace and had once offered some help to Fang Lin.
However, Fang Lin knew that the reason the woman inside the cave offered help was in the hope that one day he would release her.
Naturally, Fang Lin was not going to release her. With such intense hatred toward the Pill Saint Palace and profound cultivation, releasing her would undoubtedly lead to a great disaster.
“Kid, what are you thinking about? Are you going in or not?” the Old Dried Corpse urged.
After much deliberation, Fang Lin still didn’t have much confidence and, moreover, this was the Purple Mist Sect’s territory; should any abnormality occur in the ancient cave, it might involve the Purple Mist Sect.
The safest approach would be to relocate the people of the Purple Mist Sect, then deal with the woman in the cave.
However, although Fang Lin had quite a few trump cards at hand, he still knew too little about the woman in the cave. Without full certainty, he didn’t want to act rashly against her.
“Let’s go inside and take a look,” Fang Lin decided after much thought and entered the cave to see the woman and then consider how to deal with her.
Immediately, Fang Lin stepped into the ancient cave, the world before him shrouded in darkness, so thick he couldn’t see his hand in front of his face.
After a few steps forward, a force emerged and sucked Fang Lin’s body deeper into the cave.
Within moments, Fang Lin stood still, slightly illuminated ahead, where he could make out a faint silhouette of a woman.
“You’ve finally come.” The woman’s voice rang out, tinged with a hint of coldness.
Fang Lin maintained his composure and spoke, “Senior, have you been well here?”
The woman scoffed, “Well? I think of leaving here every moment. And you ask if I have been well?”
Fang Lin spoke, “Can you tell me about your origins, senior?”
“Heh, what do you need to know of my origins for? Do you think that having reached the Spirit Bone realm and unlocked the Heavenly Eye, you no longer have to fear me?” the woman said with scorn.
Fang Lin laughed, “I’m merely curious about your past, senior. Since you are not inclined to tell, then I will not ask any further.”
“What exactly are you here for?” the woman’s voice grew stern as she questioned Fang Lin.
Fang Lin didn’t reply, only gazing at the woman’s vague silhouette. Soon, he left directly, showing no intention of staying any longer.
Upon leaving the ancient cave, Fang Lin was still contemplating how to eliminate this woman. Although the seals inside the cave were robust, making it unlikely for the woman to escape, there was still a potential for her to break free.
Only by resolving this issue once and for all could he avoid many future troubles.
“Kid, who is that woman in the cave?” the Old Dried Corpse asked.
Fang Lin spoke, “She might be someone from your era.”
The Old Dried Corpse sneered upon hearing this, “Turns out it’s another old monster, but it seems this woman has fared even worse than me.”
Fang Lin laughed and said, “How do you know she’s worse off than you? At least her physical body should be intact.”
Upon hearing this, the Old Dried Corpse immediately became sullen.
Just then, Fang Lin’s Message Transmitting Jade Slip suddenly stirred, and he hurriedly picked it up to check.
“They’ve indeed come!” Fang Lin clenched the jade slip, his expression slightly ominous.
The message was from the five Spirit Source experts he had sent out, stating that they had spotted members of the Seven Seas three sects hundreds of miles east of Qian Country, approaching towards Qian Country.
The details in the message specified that among that group from the Seven Seas three sects, there were no particularly formidable experts. Most were of the Spirit Bone cultivation level, with the strongest being only at the first tier of Spirit Source.
In response, Fang Lin directly instructed those five Spirit Source experts that if there were no other experts, they should take action immediately, annihilate those Seven Seas three sect high-level fighters, and prevent them from nearing the Qian Country border.
After giving the order, Fang Lin then found Han Luoyun and informed him of the incoming attack from the Seven Seas three sects.
Upon hearing this, Han Luoyun’s expression turned grave. Despite hoping that the Seven Seas three sects would not attack the Lower Three Kingdoms, the inevitable had occurred, and it was impossible to avoid.
Han Luoyun immediately contacted Yang Jianye, alerting the Qian Country royalty to prepare.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in Qian Country became tense, but naturally, the common people remained unaware; the pressure weighed solely on the martial artists.
Fang Lin did not linger in the Purple Mist Sect and immediately left with Han Luoyun to head toward the eastern border of Qian Country.
Upon arrival, Fang Lin received another message. The five Spirit Source experts had taken care of the first batch of people sent by the Seven Seas three sects. All those in the Spirit Bone realm had been killed, but one of the two Spirit Source martial artists had escaped. Although the five had pursued for a while, they were unable to catch him.
Fang Lin was well aware that this first batch from the Seven Seas was merely probing; the real experts had likely not yet shown themselves.
Now that the Seven Seas knew that Qian Country was protected by Spirit Source experts, they would probably send quite a few Spirit Source experts the next time.
Just to be safe, Fang Lin contacted Zhou Meng, asking the old master to hurry to the Qian Country border as well.
The old master was initially reluctant, but after repeated urging from Fang Lin, he slowly made his way over.
Thus, Fang Lin now had ten first-tier Spirit Source experts by his side, along with a third-tier Spirit Source Zhou Meng.
The reason it was ten includes the five Fang Lin had initially sent out to scout and another five stationed earlier in the border city to guard the location; now they were joined together.
However, after that first batch of Seven Seas people was eliminated, they seemed to have given up on attacking Qian Country.
Fang Lin and his companions were puzzled; it didn’t make sense. The Seven Seas had lost quite a few troops, yet the real experts had not appeared. They couldn’t have just given up like that.
At that time, a message from the high ranks of the Pill Alliance drastically shocked Fang Lin.
That day, the Three Emperors had all appeared, confronting the top experts from the Seven Seas, launching a tremendous battle.
The battle was extraordinarily fierce, lasting several days, and in the end, both the Qin Emperor and Yuan Emperor had disappeared, leaving only the injured Tang Emperor to return to the Nine Countries.
On the side of the Seven Seas, Buddha Head had also vanished into thin air, while Situ Yue and Cangyunzi left with severe injuries.
The disappearance of the Qin Emperor and Yuan Emperor sent shockwaves through Qing Nation and Yuan Country, throwing them into turmoil and spreading panic throughout the Nine Countries.
