Chapter 414 Xiao Ruoshui's Scheme
Upon hearing the name "Lin Yuechan," Lin Qiye's calm and deep eyes suddenly narrowed, as if two invisible swords had shot out from them, and the temperature inside the cave seemed to drop several degrees in that instant.
A cold yet sharp aura flashed from him.
Lin Yuechan...
She's here too!
They came for themselves!
Despite the abyss's immense danger, she resolutely returned to it...
Moreover, they are now caught in a demonic tide!
Lin Qiye's heart sank instantly.
Now that Lin Yuechan has come, no matter what danger she is in, I will never ignore her!
Xiao Ruoshui took in Lin Qiye's subtle changes in expression. In the depths of her beautiful eyes, which always carried a hint of charm, a knowing look and... a subtle glint flashed.
Of course she knew that the relationship between Lin Qiye and Lin Yuechan was unusual.
In order to find the two missing students, Lin Yuechan did not hesitate to return to the abyss herself.
She neglected all other school affairs!
It is said that this indicates that Lin Qiye and Liu Ruyan are both very outstanding students.
In reality, everyone knows that if either of the two students, even if Liu Ruyan is a soon-to-be graduate, is dragged into this abyss, there's basically no hope for them.
After all, when randomly teleported to the abyss, one usually won't appear near a rift.
Under such circumstances, the chances of survival are extremely slim.
Even if Lin Qiye and Liu Ruyan were truly as talented as Lin Yuechan claimed, all we can do is mourn their passing.
This matter caused quite a stir among the higher-ups at Galaxy Martial Arts University, and even throughout the entire 0755 star system.
But there's not much we can do.
Xiao Ruoshui, being a shrewd and perceptive woman, saw through the deeper meaning behind this.
For Lin Yuechan to go to such lengths for the students she values is probably no small feat.
When she saw Lin Qiye again, she recalled her encounter with him and guessed that Lin Yuechan cared about Lin Qiye, not Liu Ruyan.
The reason she specifically mentioned Lin Yuechan's name at this time was naturally due to her own calculations.
After witnessing firsthand Lin Qiye's terrifying strength—enough to easily crush the Mysterious-level Flame Two-Headed Wolf King—a daring plan had already taken shape in her mind!
That rift stronghold is of extremely important strategic significance to Galaxy Martial Arts University and even the entire 0755 galaxy!
We must not give up so easily!
And this excessively young man before them was undoubtedly the greatest hope for retaking that stronghold!
It might even be the only hope!
Looking back now, I realize I made the right move.
Lin Qiye's performance was just as she had expected, even... much stronger than she had anticipated.
However, just as Xiao Ruoshui was secretly making plans, the scene of Lin Qiye absorbing the "Heart of Blazing Flame" containing terrifying demonic power uncontrollably appeared in her mind.
A strong sense of lingering fear and worry welled up in her heart again.
She took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Qiye, her voice solemn.
"Lin Qiye, I know you are very strong, even..."
"However, there's something I must remind you of."
She paused.
"Although your martial will has reached its peak, even at the peak, you absolutely cannot absorb those unprocessed mysterious relics so casually as you did just now!"
The male and female teachers standing nearby looked at Lin Qiye in surprise upon hearing Xiao Ruoshui's words.
No way...
But then she realized what had happened.
As a freshman, Lin Qiye probably doesn't know the key to this.
The mysterious relic must at least be brought to the rift stronghold, or even back to the star system, to further sever the connection with the abyss. Only in this way can one avoid being devoured by the mysterious relic.
If absorbed directly, the mysterious relic is still connected to the abyss, which would greatly increase the amount of martial will that needs to be suppressed and the spiritual energy that needs to be consumed!
Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye was slightly taken aback, then looked at Xiao Ruoshui with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Oh? Principal Xiao, is there... some intricacies involved?" he asked calmly. "Is there a limit to the absorption of mysterious relics by the ultimate martial arts will?"
"Of course!" Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Xiao Ruoshui was immediately annoyed, and her voice involuntarily rose a few decibels.
"The mysterious relic is the essence of a mysterious-level monster's origin and rules! The demonic nature and backlash it contains are far more terrifying than you can imagine!"
"The best approach is to use a specially made relic storage box, bring it back to the mortal realm, and then slowly refine it, gradually wearing away its demonic nature with a gentle, persistent effort!"
"But!" Xiao Ruoshui's tone shifted abruptly, her beautiful eyes fixed on him. "Like you just did, absorbing it whole like that is practically playing with your life! You succeeded this time, but that doesn't mean you can succeed next time! If there's a backlash... you'll be assimilated by the demonic energy on the spot, and easily turn into a monster that only knows how to kill!"
Lin Qiye listened quietly to Xiao Ruoshui's warning and roughly understood what was going on.
He knew, of course, that Xiao Ruoshui was right.
For any normal martial artist, her words are invaluable advice.
Unfortunately……
I am not that kind of conventional being.
Lin Qiye thought to himself.
No one knew that his so-called "ultimate realm" was not the kind of singular ultimate martial arts will that Xiao Ruoshui imagined.
Instead... sixfold!
It consists of six distinct martial intents at the pinnacle of power, intertwined and superimposed in an incredibly profound way!
Not to mention, above those six extreme realms, there is an even more domineering and unreasonable... super martial arts will!
The gap here is no longer a simple quantitative change, but... a qualitative chasm!
It's a difference of ten times, or even a hundred times!
That is why the backlash of wills that would make any mysterious powerhouse tremble appeared so... vulnerable in his presence.
All the previous backlash was instantly suppressed, and now it lies obediently in the sea of consciousness, which is good proof.
As for the martial will and spiritual energy consumed, they can be replenished by devouring the abyssal essence within the mysterious relics.
Of course, he couldn't possibly reveal all these secrets to Xiao Ruoshui.
He simply nodded calmly, a perfectly timed "I've learned something" expression on his face.
"Thank you for the reminder, Principal Xiao. I will pay attention to it in the future."
Xiao Ruoshui sighed inwardly as she looked at his perfunctory attitude.
Young and impetuous.
You only know regret when you actually face it.
Xiao Ruoshui thought she would try to persuade him later.
Young people are all like that!
Lin Qiye's biggest worry was Lin Yuechan.
So he looked at Xiao Ruoshui and said, "Principal, let's set off immediately... The sooner we get there to rescue them, the sooner we can reduce casualties..."
