Lin Shu and Ling Baiyu were both inspecting the outside of the cave with unsightly complexions when a spatial rift appeared beside them.

Lin Zhengyang and the others stepped out from it.

Seeing Lin Shu there, Qin Xiaowan smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Shu, I'll send you back first."

In the eyes of Lin Zhengyang and Qin Xiaowan and others, Lin Shu was just a mortal. So Lin Shu was usually excluded from discussions.

Lin Shu noticed their unsightly expressions as he swept his gaze over them.

As Lin Shu knew they were likely to be discussing something of importance, he nodded and turned back to Ling Baiyu and said, "I'll go back first. I'll catch up with you when I have time."

Ling Baiyu nodded reluctantly at Lin Shu.

Whenever she was with Lin Shu, she was completely at ease.

After Qin Xiaowan reached out her hand and tore open a spatial rift and sent Lin Shu back, she rejoined them.

"Gentlemen, we are out of time." Lin Zhengyang was speaking with a gloomy expression at this time.

The surrounding crowd fell silent at his words.

Lingxuan Continent's Spiritual Qi density has declined in recent years.

The cultivation base of Lin Zhengyang and the others had long since fallen from the peak stages of the Sage Realm to the middle stages of the Sage Realm.

Their realms have fallen again with the fall of Spiritual Qi, leaving them in the early stages of the Sage realm.

It would be impossible for them to maintain the Saint realm if this continued.

If they were at the later stages of the Sage realm, with the help of Treasures of Heaven and Earth in their hands, they would still be able to barely regain their immortal cultivation bases and compete against those Extra-terrestrial Devils and the ancient cultivators in the sky in a final fight.

But now with their realm at the early stages of the Saint Realm, even with the many Treasures of Heaven and Earth, it would be difficult for them to replenish their Immortal Realm cultivation base.

Immortal Bi Hua looked at Ling Baiyu from the side gloomily and said, "Baiyu, what's your cultivation base now?"

Ling Baiyu nodded slightly, and the silver of Immortal Qi dissipated from her body.

When Immortal Bihua and the others saw this silver of Qi, they looked pleased at first, but soon shook their heads in helplessness.

In a short span, Ling Baiyu's cultivation base rose from the early stage of the Immortal Realm to the peak stages of the Immortal Realm.

This level of cultivation was comparable to that of the fifth-generation Heavenly Emperor back then.

They were certain that Ling Baiyu would make a breakthrough into the Eternal Realm quickly if Spiritual Qi was abundant on the Lingxuan Continent.

Unfortunately, there wasn't that much time left.

It was simply not possible for Ling Baiyu to step into the Eternal Realm with the Treasures of Heaven and Earth in their hands.

"Too bad, what a pity."

The immortal Bi Hua and the others sighed downcastly.

Rather, Ling Baiyu's face was grave at that moment, "Masters, since I don't have that much time to cultivate, let's put up a fight. Perhaps this time we will be able to block the Traces of Heaven in the sky and save the Lingxuan Continent."

The expressions on Lin Zhengyang and the others grew heavier when they heard Ling Baiyu's words, and they nodded in agreement.

"Baiyu is right, at the moment we have only one more chance to gamble."

For a moment, everyone gathered and discussed.

Finally, they decided to go to battle again three days later with all their strength and cards to seal the Traces of Heaven in the sky.

Lin Shu, unaware of all this, continued to read until late at night before going to sleep.

When he awoke the next morning in a sleepy haze, he found himself facing a ponytailed, heroic-looking woman.

The woman was less than half a foot away from him.

Lin Shu could even feel the body heat and fragrance emanating from the woman's face.

"You... you..."

Taking aback, Lin Shu rose up haughtily and turned to scream in shock when suddenly, he reacted.

He stared at the young girl several times with a look of incredulity on his face.

Then, with wide eyes, he said, "White bird, why did you come out? You even ran to my home to scare me."

The one standing opposite Lin Shu at the moment was none other than Ling Baiyu.

Looking at Lin Shu's startled appearance, she couldn't help but skim her lips and burst into laughter.

She shook her head and said, "What do you mean I'm here to scare you? I have been here for a long time waiting for you to wake up, okay?"

Lin Shu said with a speechless face, "You are a cultivator. I am an ordinary person. It is strange that I can sense you."

Fortunately, Lin Shu wore underwear.

If not, he was afraid that Ling Baiyu would have seen his whole body.

He turned over and got up. While dressing, Lin Shu asked curiously, "It's still unclear how my mother and the others let you leave that spiritual cave."

The question caused Ling Baiyu's eyes to become gloomy for a moment.

She was able to leave that cave due to her numerous pleas.

In three days, they would set off to seal the Traces of Heaven.

It was very unlikely that they would return, regardless of whether they succeeded.

They let Ling Baiyu have a free day because they were clear about this.

Since she began cultivating, Ling Baiyu rarely left that cave.

For a long time, she has also longed to see the outside world.

Seeing her expectant look, Lin Zhengyang, Immortal Bi Hua, and the others couldn't bear to turn her down.

Anyhow, Ling Baiyu asked for just one day.

If Ling Baiyu paid attention to herself, she might be able to stabilize her realm by consuming the Spiritual Qi of a Heavenly Treasure.

As soon as Ling Baiyu left that cave, she went to Lin Shu's place.

The only person she knew besides Lin Zhengyang and the others was Lin Shu after all.

...

Ling Baiyu brushed aside her mouth when she heard Lin Shu's question: "Even if I'm in prison, I'll get out one day, let alone that I cultivate... Now that I have some accomplishments with my cultivation, there's naturally no need for me to remain within that cave."

Ling Baiyu didn't tell Lin Shu about the three-day matter.

It would worry Lin Shu if she told him this.

"Then I must congratulate you." Lin Shu nodded with a smile.

Ling Baiyu reached out her hand and slapped Lin Shu on the side of his head, bristling. "What's the point of congratulating me? There is a reason why I am looking for you today... Take me to see the rainbow and seven-colored spring you told me before."

Ling Baiyu's eyes were filled with anticipation.

Lin Shu, however, suddenly became hesitant.
