In this way, Lin Yu forcefully suppressed the conflict between the Black-Robed High Priest and the Fallen Black Phoenix.
The black-robed high priest exchanged a few more pleasantries with Lin Yu before leaving with his people. However, heaven knows how stiff his expression had become when he spoke to Lin Yu at the end.
Those last few words were almost entirely squeezed out by the black-robed high priest through gritted teeth.
Lin Yu felt helpless, but at least the black-robed high priest had done his job in terms of appearances, so he didn't say anything more.
As for what the black-robed high priest would say to his people afterward, that was none of Lin Yu's business.
However, based on Lin Yu's guess, the black-robed high priest would definitely instruct them to be constantly vigilant and absolutely not allow the Fallen Black Phoenix to get even slightly close to Feng Nianzhi.
As for the Fallen Black Phoenix, Lin Yu didn't tell him about Feng Nianzhi in detail.
Otherwise, if he knew that the Phoenix Lord was right beside him after her rebirth, he would have immediately gone to fight Feng Nianzhi to the death.
Although Feng Nianzhi doesn't recognize him at all, it doesn't matter to the Fallen Black Phoenix.
Seemingly not wanting to see the Fallen Black Phoenix again, the black-robed high priest hurriedly left the next day, without even having a chance to say goodbye to Lin Yu.
Fortunately, Lin Yu didn't care about these empty formalities, since his entire mind and body were now focused on that mysterious power.
Finding and subduing that mysterious power has become Lin Yu's biggest concern.
To be honest, even Lin Yu can't be sure whether that mysterious power is still in the Netherworld Immortal Realm.
After all, if that mysterious power truly possessed a portion of sentience, leaving the Netherworld Immortal Realm wouldn't be impossible.
"If the other fragment falls into the hands of someone else, then the fragment used to mend the heavens is very likely no longer in the Netherworld Immortal Realm."
"But if the fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone simply fell into some corner of the Netherworld Immortal Realm, then they might still exist there!"
Lin Yu has made many conjectures over the past few days and activated the maximum search range of the Hongmeng System to search for the existence of that mysterious power, but unfortunately he has found nothing.
As for the Fallen Black Phoenix, although she still harbored resentment about the Black-Robed High Priest, now that the Black-Robed High Priest had left, the Fallen Black Phoenix naturally wouldn't say anything more.
The Fallen Black Phoenix didn't take the remaining members of the ancient phoenix clan seriously at all. In his eyes, they were nothing more than immature children, not worth his personal attention.
Before leaving, the black-robed high priest seemed to have given some instructions to the phoenix clan members, and they did not take the initiative to provoke the fallen black phoenix.
Therefore, the two sides are currently in a delicate balance and have not reached the point of a full-blown fight.
He Buxian told the Fallen Black Phoenix about the mysterious power, and the two of them are now waiting to capture it.
He Buxian was eager and impatient for that mysterious power, but the Fallen Black Phoenix was rather lazy and didn't take it seriously.
After all, in his eyes, apart from himself, Lin Yu, and the ancient phoenix clan, everything else was insignificant.
Perhaps, in the eyes of the Fallen Black Phoenix, capturing that mysterious power would be a piece of cake.
Unfortunately, there has been no news of the mysterious force from Lin Yu's side these past few days, which has left He Buxian somewhat disappointed.
Lin Yu originally thought that he would need to use the fragments of the Heaven-Mending Stone to sense this mysterious power, but after a few days, the mysterious power actually came to him on its own.
For the past few days, Lin Yu has been keeping the system running, searching for possible locations where the mysterious force might appear.
At the same time, Lin Yu himself was not idle either. He sat cross-legged and fell into meditation.
Lin Yu's elemental power is a blue-purple color representing lightning power. Usually when he meditates, Lin Yu quietly watches the blue-purple spiritual power flow through every inch of his body's meridians, and today is no exception.
The babbling water made Lin Yu feel incredibly peaceful, and the spiritual energy seemed like a gentle stream, quietly flowing through his veins.
"Splash... splash... splash..."
That was the sound of spiritual energy pounding through one's blood; only by calming one's mind to the extreme could one hear this mysterious sound.
However, Lin Yu suddenly frowned.
He sensed that the flow of spiritual energy seemed to have stopped for a moment.
Although it was only for a brief moment, Lin Yu was able to clearly perceive this change. With his level of strength, his control over spiritual power had long since reached a state of unparalleled mastery.
However, after that, Lin Yu discovered that his body had indeed changed; his spiritual power seemed to be gradually becoming transparent and drifting away uncontrollably.
Inside Lin Yu's dantian, his heart, which had been beating continuously, seemed to freeze for a moment.
"Buzz... buzz... buzz..."
Lin Yu tried to mobilize the spiritual energy within his body, but to his surprise, the spiritual energy did not react at all, as if it had turned into a stagnant pool.
Lin Yu clearly felt that his limbs were gradually stiffening, and now the only thing he could move was his mental power!
She seemed to be sealed by a sudden, extremely cold aura, completely losing control over her spiritual power.
The situation before him was quite strange to Lin Yu.
Logically speaking, such a phenomenon should be a precursor to qi deviation, but Lin Yu knew his spiritual power status better than anyone. Everything had been normal just now, so how could he have gone into qi deviation for no reason?
Moreover, with the Hongmeng System overseeing things, the Hongmeng System would never allow its host to fall into danger during cultivation.
"Buzz..."
Lin Yu's vision went completely dark, and he felt that he couldn't move his eyeballs.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but just when Lin Yu almost thought he was going to be trapped in this darkness forever, his vision suddenly cleared, and at the same time, Lin Yu's body seemed to have recovered as well.
Although I've regained control of my body, I still feel some soreness.
However, the scene before Lin Yu's eyes had changed drastically. Originally, Lin Yu was in the mansion arranged for him by Daoist Shouyang, but when he opened his eyes again, he was no longer surrounded by the familiar green grass and bamboo, but by a cold and unfamiliar high platform.
