Ling Yu's Transformation

"Little one, I hope you can bear what I'm about to say," Yi Huang said with a sigh.

Ling Yu instinctively sensed something was wrong. "Please, Deputy Pavilion Master, speak plainly!"

Yi Huang handed the former a jade Jade Pendant with the character "Ling" on it and scarlet patterns. Ling Yu's eyes narrowed. This kind of Jade Pendant was not a secret to their Spirit Clan. Although it was precious, he recognized it.

"Whose Soul Jade Pendant is this?" Ling Yu asked subconsciously, his voice rising involuntarily.

"Your clan leader personally handed it over to our Pavilion Master."

Yi Huang slowly said, "So..."

What do you think?

"How is this possible?" Ling Yu exclaimed instantly, his face flushed red. "How could the clan leader be in danger?"

He couldn't believe it, and he dared not believe it. How could the clan leader, who was regarded as a god by the entire clan, possibly perish?

Moreover, the Spirit Clan has been detached from worldly affairs for many years, and the Spirit Race Clan Leader cannot leave the Spirit Realm at will.

Ling Yu clearly understood what the patriarch's fall meant: their Spirit Clan had suffered a tremendous disaster, perhaps even annihilation!

This also explains the closure of the Spirit Realm and the sudden disappearance of the Spirit Clan.

Ling Yu couldn't accept this conjecture at all. If the Spirit Clan was gone, what were these so-called geniuses of the Spirit Clan worth?

What would happen to them, as the only remaining members of the Spirit Clan's Dou Di Bloodline? Ling Yu couldn't even imagine.

As a genius of Ancient Races, Ling Yu may have low emotional intelligence, but he is not a complete Xiao Bai.

In particular, the example of the Xiao Clan has been circulating among the Ancient Races. Even the once-powerful Xiao Clan disappeared without a trace, and their Spirit Clan is clearly going to follow in their footsteps.

Their once-proud Dou Di Bloodline will become a path to their demise after losing the Spirit Clan, their greatest backer.

Could they, a mere Half-Saint and a few Dou Zun, possibly preserve this bloodline? Ling Yu didn't think so.

Ling Yu's back was soaked with cold sweat. If this was true, he didn't think he and his companions would survive.

A person capable of annihilating the Spirit Clan has no reason or ability not to eradicate them completely, thus denying them even the chance for revenge.

Just as Ling Yu was getting deeper into his thoughts, Yi Huang pulled him out of his daze.

Don't overthink it!

Ling Yu snapped out of his daze. Yi Huang was looking at him with a serious expression and solemnly said, "This Jade Pendant broke more than a year ago. We have been keeping this a secret."

The reason I'm only telling you now is because you have the ability to protect yourself.

Ling Yu was taken aback; he hadn't known the other party had this consideration. However, having just broken through to the Half-Saint realm, his strength was indeed considerable.

Before Ling Yu could relax even slightly, Yi Huang warned him:

"You'd better not leave Langya Pavilion recently, otherwise even we won't be able to protect your safety."

"Remember this point!"

"Then thank you very much, Vice Pavilion Master!" Ling Yu adjusted his mindset, made himself look more normal, and said in a deep voice.

"Mm." Yi Huang nodded.

After Ling Yu stepped out of the room, he felt his body go weak. He didn't think that Deputy Pavilion Master Yi Huang would tell a lie that could be easily exposed to deceive him.

The truth of this matter can only be that something really happened to the Spirit Clan, and they have become rootless duckweed.

As the strongest remaining member of the Spirit Clan, Ling Yu believes he has a duty to ensure his people survive.

Although he didn't dare to completely trust the character of the Langya Pavilion, based on his years of observation, the latter's strength was trustworthy.

At least for now, they can only rely on the Langya Pavilion for protection. Once they leave this place, Ling Yu is certain that they will not have a good ending.

Suddenly, he sensed something and quickly returned to his Cultivation Secret Chamber.

He took out the dark Storage Ring that Elder Ling Yi had once given him. This Storage Ring had a powerful Dou Qi seal, and Ling Yu had been trying to open it, but to no avail.

"Now I should be eligible to open it!" Ling Yu muttered to himself.

He then made up his mind and poured his Dou Qi into it, constantly assaulting the barrier within.

To Ling Yu's surprise, the Storage Ring was no longer unresponsive as usual; it was now emitting a cool blue light.

The entire process lasted for two hours. Finally, just as Ling Yu felt his Dou Qi was about to run out, accompanied by a soft sound, the originally ordinary Storage Ring burst forth with dazzling light.

As the blinding light gradually dissipated, a light blue ring engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns floated before Ling Yu's eyes, shining brightly and exuding a mysterious aura.

Grabbing it tightly, Ling Yu increasingly felt the importance of what was inside, and his Soul Strength probed into its interior.

"Hiss!"

With a "clang," Ling Yu suddenly let go, Storage Ring fell onto the table with a crisp sound.

At this moment, the former's eyes were bloodshot, his whole body trembled, and two lines of tears streamed from the corners of his eyes as he silently murmured:

"How could this be?!"

It's not that the Storage Ring is empty; on the contrary, it contains wealth that even many Super faction do not possess.

Ling Yu was certain that if the contents of this Storage Ring were exposed, the entire Central Plains would go crazy.

These are the foundation of the Spirit Clan's existence, with endless Spirit Clan Cultivation Techniques and Combat Skills, as well as numerous treasures. Ling Yu only glanced at them casually, but he saw many things that even some Elder would covet.

With these treasures in the Storage Ring, Ling Yu is fully capable of building a massive force in a short period of time.

But this reflects a problem. "Could it be that the clan leader and the others had already foreseen the annihilation of their clan?" Ling Yu guessed.

Otherwise, how could the Elder have entrusted such precious treasures of the Spirit Clan to such a young upstart?

In this way, the original clan leader's insistence on sending the ten of them to the Langya Pavilion can be explained—to preserve the last embers of the Spirit Clan.

As long as the Spirit Clan retains its foundation and has a few young geniuses, and as long as they survive, the Spirit Clan will eventually regain its footing in the world after thousands of years.

Thinking this, Ling Yu's gaze suddenly fixed on a letter. Ling Yu took it out and began to read it carefully.

After an unknown amount of time, Ling Yu's shoulders trembled and he sobbed uncontrollably. He had never imagined that his clan would expend so much effort and expense to protect them.

All these years, they had simply thought it was just a change of location for cultivation.

"What a bastard!" Ling Yu couldn't help but curse himself.

Wiping away his tears, Ling Yu's demeanor instantly changed. If he was once a slightly inexperienced little genius, after undergoing a transformation, Ling Yu has now grown into a top-tier powerhouse capable of standing on his own.

"Let the Spirit Clan be revived in our hands!" Ling Yu said to himself.

He then opened the door and went out, as he needed to enhance the strength of the other members of the Spirit Clan as much as possible.

Perhaps he couldn't have done this before, but after receiving many precious legacies from the Spirit Clan, Ling Yu now possesses wealth that even surpasses the entire Langya Pavilion.

You could easily boost their cultivation levels by simply using resources. As for their weak foundations, that just means you haven't invested enough money.

There were only ten of them, which was nothing compared to the contents of the Storage Ring.

However, the ambitious Ling Yu failed to notice a masked Black-Robed Figure watching him intently from afar.
