Lin Feng accompanied his fiancée and family at home. He lived very comfortably every day, and even put aside his cultivation.
It was not that Lin Feng had really become lazy, or that he was beguiled by love, but that Lin Feng’s Mental Guidance Technique had already reached the third level and met the requirements for three life transitions.
However, Lin Feng had no clue at all about the third life transition now. This was not something that could be attained just by cultivating diligently. According to Longbetham, no one could help with life transitions. He could only rely on himself.
Lin Feng’s natural talent was only average. He was able to undergo a second life transition so quickly because of various opportunities and coincidences. His experience was even richer than that of some martial artists’ over hundreds of years, which was why he could undergo a second life transition.
As for the third life transition, Lin Feng also did not know when he would be able to undergo the third life transition if he cultivated step by step.
Beep-beep-beep.
Suddenly, Lin Feng’s communicator rang.
Lin Feng picked up his communicator and realized that it was the Invincible Fist Sage. This was really novel. Normally, Sages would not contact each other unless there was something important.
“Dean, what’s the matter?”
“Lin Feng, I’ll have to trouble you with something. I need your help regarding the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead.”
“The Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead is one of the Four Forbidden Places. What’s going on?”
Lin Feng had a shock. As a Sage, he naturally knew many secrets. For example, the Four Forbidden Places were places that even Sages were fearful of. Demon emperors and other strange powers that threatened Sages lay within.
In fact, the Nine Sages guarded the Four Forbidden Places respectively.
“Something is indeed going on, so I need your help. You’ll know the details when you come to the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead.”
“All right, I’ll come as soon as possible.” Lin Feng hung up.
Something was going on at the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead. As a Sage, he naturally had the duty to go. Moreover, the Invincible Fist Sage had personally contacted him. Lin Feng would not refuse.
It seemed like his leisurely days were about to end.
“Chenchen, I have to deal with something. It might take a while. Are you staying in Central Sea or returning to the League of Guardians?”
Qu Chen did not ask about the details. She knew that Lin Feng was a Sage, and shoulders all the matters of humanity. Hence, she said gently, “I’ll return to the League of Guardians and help you manage the matters in the League of Guardians.”
“That’s just as well. Zhang Qiji will be going to the League of Guardians soon. You can also help him.”
Hence, Lin Feng bade farewell to his family and took the airship. He first sent Qu Chen back to the League of Guardians, and asked the Guardian to pay attention to protecting Qu Chen and the League of Guardians Headquarters.
Then, Lin Feng boarded the airship and headed straight for the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead.
Lin Feng’s airship flew at the fastest speed possible to the coordinates of the Invincible Fist Sage, flying over barren expanses of the Outland. Although this place was very barren, it was actually the world of dire beasts. There were even flying dire beasts.
A group of flying dire beasts attempted to intercept Lin Feng’s airship, but they were all blasted apart by Lin Feng’s Tide Combat Body. Even so, Lin Feng encountered at least ten waves of flying dire beasts along the way.
And this was while flying in an airship. If he were using ground transportation tools, he would probably encounter more than merely ten waves of dire beasts. Even hundreds of waves would come as no surprise.
Only the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead could be considered the depths of the Outland. This was also Lin Feng’s first time venturing so deep into the Outland. The dire beasts he saw were simply innumerable, dense, and infinite.
Only then did he realize that this world was not actually the world of humans, but the world of dire beasts. How many dire beasts could he kill alone, ten thousand or a hundred thousand?
So what if they could kill millions or tens of millions of dire beasts?
There were at least trillions of dire beasts in the entire Outland. They were innumerable, and impossible to annihilate completely.
No wonder the Nine Sages of humanity were all worried and not as optimistic as ordinary people. That was because the Sages stood in high positions and saw afar. They naturally knew how fearsome the dire beasts were.
Soon, Lin Feng saw a base up ahead. It was a magnificent base. Back then, it must have taken countless manpower and resources to build it in the depths of the Outland.
Even so, it was only due to a Sage overseeing this base that it could survive.
“The Grotto Base!”
Lin Feng knew that this was the Grotto Base, guarded by the Invincible Fist Sage. Its main goal was to keep an eye on the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead.
As the airship slowly descended, many martial artists came to welcome him.
There were almost no Metamorphic Realm martial artists in the Grotto Base. They were all Divine Realm martial artists at the very least. All of them were elites among elites. In other places among humanity, they could all dominate an area each.
They were all at least Legates!
Not to mention that there were Meta-divine martial artists, and the Invincible Fist Sage. Almost all the elites of the Myriad Academy were here. It was enough to show how much importance the Invincible Fist Sage attached to the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead.
The airship landed, and the Invincible Fist Sage personally came out to welcome him.
Thud.
The cabin door opened, and Lin Feng flew out.
“It’s Sage Lin Feng.”
“He’s really so young. I’ve long heard that Sage Lin Feng is the most outstanding genius in the history of our Myriad Academy. The rumors are true. He’s so young, only in his twenties.”
“Back then, I thought that Dongfang Sheng was the most outstanding genius. Now, it seems like Sage Lin Feng simply surpasses all geniuses!”
All the Divine Realm and Meta-divine Realm martial artists in the Grotto Base were very envious of Lin Feng. They had guarded the Grotto Base for so many years, but none of the Meta-divine Realm martial artists could undergo four life transitions to become a Sage.
Unexpectedly, their junior who had only stayed in the Myriad Academy for a short period of time became a Sage at one go.
However, no matter what, the martial artists in the Grotto Base felt natural affinity towards Lin Feng. The reason was very simple. Everyone knew that Lin Feng was from the Myriad Academy. Even if Lin Feng had established the League of Guardians, he definitely had close attachments to the Myriad Academy.
“Sage Lin Feng, you’re finally here.” The Invincible Fist Sage came forward personally with a broad smile on his face.
“Dean, just call me Lin Feng. How dare I call myself a Sage in front of you?” Lin Feng was also very respectful towards the Invincible Fist Sage.
“Haha, although I don’t care about unnecessary etiquette, you’re a Sage. This is an indisputable fact.”
The Invincible Fist Sage led Lin Feng into the reception hall of the base. Only the Invincible Fist Sage and Lin Feng remained inside.
“Dean, you said that something is going on in the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead. What exactly is it?” Lin Feng did not beat around the bush and asked directly.
“There’s indeed a problem. The Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead were quaking non-stop a few days ago, and the quaking became more and more frequent and intense. I have an ominous feeling about it. Hence, I plan to enter the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead personally to investigate the matter! In fact, if we join forces, we may be able to resolve the problem of the Eighteen Grottoes of Dragonhead once and for all!”
