Chapter 1281 — The Energy That Suddenly Rose
The chamber—
Had remained silent for days—
Perhaps weeks—
No one counted anymore—
Because cultivation erased the meaning of ordinary time—
Spiritual energy flowed endlessly through the mountain peak—
Dense—
Pure—
Almost liquid—
And then—
Without warning—
The entire chamber trembled—
A wave of spiritual pressure erupted outward—
Not from one person—
But four—
Chapter 1282 — The Breakthrough That Happened Again
Yang Lin's eyes slowly opened—
Calm as always—
Beside him—
Su Qinglan's aura surged upward—
FeiFei's spiritual energy spiraled violently around her—
And Han Qing's cultivation exploded forward simultaneously—
The barriers holding them back—
Collapsed instantly—
Empire Realm—
3rd Stage—
Broken through—
At the same time—
Chapter 1283 — The Ones Who Were Shocked
Han Chen's eyes widened immediately—
"…Again?"
Ning Mei stood up abruptly—
Unable to hide her shock—
"They only reached Empire Realm 2nd Stage recently…"
Even Daji—
Who rarely reacted—
Opened her eyes fully—
Silent—
Yet clearly surprised—
Because this speed—
Was absurd—
Completely unreasonable—
Chapter 1284 — The Time That Grew Shorter
The spiritual pressure gradually settled—
But the atmosphere within the chamber did not calm—
Because everyone understood what this meant—
Every breakthrough—
Reduced the time remaining—
Reduced the distance between them—
And the greater cultivation world—
Han Chen slowly smiled—
"…Looks like we'll be leaving sooner than expected."
Ning Mei nodded softly—
A faint excitement appearing in her eyes—
Even Daji's gaze shifted briefly toward Yang Lin—
Quietly observing him—
Chapter 1285 — The One Who Wasn't Surprised
Meanwhile—
Yang Lin remained completely calm—
As if this outcome had already been expected—
No excitement—
No pride—
No reaction at all—
Only stillness—
FeiFei looked at him blankly—
"…Why do you look completely unsurprised?"
Han Qing was still trying to stabilize her breathing—
Clearly unable to process what had just happened—
Even Su Qinglan's calm expression showed faint disbelief—
Because this breakthrough came far too quickly—
Chapter 1286 — The Explanation That Was Given
Yang Lin looked toward them quietly—
Then spoke—
Calmly—
"With each of my breakthroughs…"
A faint silence followed—
"My cultivation insights are shared with all of you naturally."
The chamber instantly went quiet—
Su Qinglan blinked slowly—
FeiFei froze completely—
Han Qing stared at him in disbelief—
"…Shared?"
Yang Lin gave a small nod—
"As my understanding deepens…"
"So does yours."
Chapter 1287 — The Truth That Sounded Unreal
FeiFei's mind nearly stopped—
"…That's impossible…"
Cultivation insights—
Were among the most difficult things to obtain—
Every realm—
Every breakthrough—
Required comprehension—
Experience—
Enlightenment—
Yet Yang Lin was saying—
His own understanding naturally affected theirs—
Han Qing looked completely stunned—
"…That shouldn't even exist…"
Even Han Chen and Ning Mei fell silent—
Because they knew exactly how terrifying that ability truly was—
Chapter 1288 — The Calm That Made It Worse
And yet—
Yang Lin remained entirely calm—
As if none of this was unusual—
"To cultivate together…"
"Means to walk the same path."
His voice carried no arrogance—
Only certainty—
"If I move forward…"
"You will naturally follow."
The simplicity of those words—
Made them even harder to comprehend—
Chapter 1289 — The Feeling That Quietly Changed
The chamber slowly returned to silence—
But the atmosphere had completely changed—
Because everyone now realized something—
Following Yang Lin—
Was not merely companionship—
It was opportunity beyond imagination—
Even Daji—
Who had already reached the peak long ago—
Quietly narrowed her eyes—
As if reconsidering the true extent of Yang Lin's existence—
Chapter 1290 — The Distance That Continued To Shrink
Outside—
The endless blue sky stretched across the heavens—
Clouds drifting beyond distant floating mountains—
Ancient sects and spirit pavilions hidden far beyond the horizon—
The cultivation world still waited—
Unaware—
That the group beneath this mountain—
Was rising faster than anyone should—
And with every breakthrough—
The day they would finally step into the greater world—
Drew closer—
