Gazing at the stars filling the sky, Chen Lin felt an immense sense of familiarity.
Although the energy in the Star Ruins was of a higher grade, he disliked the environment there. Everywhere he went was shrouded in gloom, without the slightest hint of vitality.
He felt much more comfortable beneath this starry sky.
Chen Lin also discovered that his strength was not suppressed here. He did not know whether that was because his cultivation had yet to reach the dominator level or because he was originally a native of this place.
But it was certainly a good thing.
He extended his perception.
Soon, he pinpointed his location, activated the Qingming Shuttle, and vanished in a flash.
Hanyu Planet.
Tianhan City Market.
With a few minor tricks, Chen Lin learned about the situation here.
Overall, things were fairly good.
The Lake-Fishing Old Man's forces had not risen from the ashes, and the man himself had not appeared either, as though he had abandoned this place.
But Chen Lin knew that he could never abandon it.
The living beings here were all fish the man had raised, and they were tied to his advancement to a mid-stage dominator. Even under pressure from both Langdang Mountain and Bai Yujing, he could never let them go.
Chen Lin would have done the same in his place.
However, the man would not make a move in the near future.
As for exactly how long that would last, Chen Lin estimated that it would be at least until after the Ascension Trial.
With the Lake-Fishing Old Man's capabilities, his participation in the Ascension Trial was practically certain. The reason he had not personally come to collect Chen Lin, this particular "fish," was probably that he was waiting for the trial to begin.
