Chapter 1994 - 453: Great Immortal Second Realm
The King of Fire believed that his daughter was definitely not inferior to Lin Yifan. The outcome of who would win or lose was still uncertain.
In the Golden Luang Hall, the King of Fire was majestic and fearless; but once in the Heart-nurturing Hall, he became timid and humble.
This is the power of a rising star with immense potential. Letting him go meant facing the potential consequence of future retaliation.
Far from the Imperial Palace of the Heavenly Fire Kingdom, Lei Ming continually praised Lin Yifan's bravery in the Golden Luang Hall, even saying he would learn from Lin Yifan in the future.
Lin Yifan felt heavy-hearted and could not find joy.
More than anyone else, he knew that if it were not for Princess Fire Lotus's exaggerated words to intimidate the King of Fire, he might not have left the Imperial Palace of the Heavenly Fire Kingdom so easily today.
Princess Fire Lotus captured him to the palace to force him into submission and make him her husband.
In fact, it was also a test to see if he would really stake his life against it.
Lin Yifan's heart was already with someone, and he did not want to involve anyone else, especially since he was not from this world and could not bear to waste Princess Fire Lotus's youth.
Even if she couldn't have him, without destroying him, Princess Fire Lotus still loved him.
He felt grateful, but it was destined that there was no chance for the two of them to be together.
...
At night, while Lin Yifan was sleeping in the forest, he suddenly sensed a disturbance.
He thought it could be pursuers, so he immediately grabbed the sleeping Lei Ming and flew away from their resting place.
In his slumber, Lei Ming sensed he was moving away from the branch and the ground, and instinctively felt frightened.
Just as he was about to shout, a large hand covered his mouth, preventing him from speaking.
In his fear, Lei Ming quickly glanced at the person grabbing him.
Finding out it was Brother Lin, he felt relieved.
Brother Lin would definitely not drag him away without reason; something must have happened. So, he focused completely on observing everything around them.
Sure enough, shortly after they left, a group of black-clad men appeared at their original location.
The group of black-clad men all had weapons in their hands, looking fierce and malicious; and the power aura they emanated seemed to possess Mysterious Immortal Power.
Anyone who could release an aura of the Mysterious Immortal Realm must be at or above the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
It was terrifying that there were experts of the Mysterious Immortal Realm aiming to kill them.
Lin Yifan believed these black-clad men must be cultivators from the Heavenly Fire Kingdom; otherwise, they would not specifically deploy experts of the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
As for exactly who sent them, he could not know.
The top official who chased them to the Heavenly Fire Kingdom found nobody there and began dividing people to search everywhere for Lin Yifan and Lei Ming.
At this time, Lin Yifan and Lei Ming were atop the trees, unless these black-clad men flew up to the trees to search, they would not find any trace of them.
The black-clad men did fly up the trees to search, but only in low altitudes and did not search higher up.
If they had searched higher, it would have taken too much time, clearly not conducive to their pursuit of those two brats.
Finding nothing, the black-clad men quickly gathered to seek the opinion of the top official.
The top official felt that the two brats' aura was no longer nearby, and thought they might have already gone far, so he immediately left to pursue elsewhere.
Lin Yifan and Lei Ming sighed in relief.
The situation just now was too dangerous, they were almost discovered by the black-clad men flying up the trees to search.
Fortunately, the hiding place had enough branches and leaves to block them, otherwise the consequences would have been unpredictable.
This place, to be precise, the Heavenly Fire Kingdom, was not a place to stay; it was better to leave as soon as possible.
After the black-clad men went far away, they immediately set off, fleeing in another direction.
Two days later, they left the Heavenly Fire Kingdom without any danger and regained their freedom.
The top official, after days of unfruitful search, ultimately gave up.
He originally wanted to kill Lin Yifan, seize the Winged Fire Pearl, and return to beg for credit from the Emperor; now that dream was shattered.
He was not sent by the King of Fire but acted on his own, wanting to help the King of Fire release some anger.
After all, he was trained by the King of Fire himself and was also the King's favorite; he was loyal to the King of Fire and couldn't bear to see him stifled with anger.
...
Having found the Winged Fire Pearl, Lei Ming was no longer of any use, so Lin Yifan sent Lei Ming back on his own.
Lei Ming, having finally gotten out, naturally would not return so easily.
Moreover, he knew that being by Brother Lin's side meant having meat to eat; how could he easily let it go?
Faced with this situation, Lin Yifan had no choice but to be honest: "I'm looking for my wife, don't come along and cause trouble."
"Brother Lin, at least I have a secret weapon and can help you in critical moments; you should think twice," Lei Ming offered a highly advantageous condition for himself, leaving Lin Yifan with no room to resist.
In the Fiery Mountain Range, Lei Ming indeed helped him immensely, and without Lei Ming, he would have had a lot of trouble, at least reducing the usage of the scroll.
After thinking about it, Lin Yifan asked, "You have a secret weapon?"
"Of course, before setting off, my father the Emperor gave me quite a few secret weapons for self-defense," Lei Ming replied.
"It seems your father cares for you a lot."
"Of course, and someone has to think about who will inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Leizhen in the future."
"Alright, alright! As long as you can offer the secret weapon, I'll take you along, otherwise go roll away by yourself."
Fearlessly, Lei Ming immediately took out a secret weapon and handed it to Brother Lin to inspect.
Lin Yifan took it effortlessly and, after discovering it was indeed a remarkably powerful secret weapon, agreed to take Lei Ming on training.
In the secluded mountains, after roaming and training across various countries for more than a month, Lin Yifan showed signs of breaking through to a new realm.
He quickly sought a quiet place to retreat and make a breakthrough.
Lei Ming was shocked by Brother Lin's advancement speed.
Just over a month ago, Brother Lin was in the Great Immortal First Realm; now, in just over a month, he was about to break through to a new realm, which was unimaginable and incomprehensible.
In fact, Lin Yifan had not broken through a realm for more than two months, yet Lei Ming was unaware of this.
The breakthrough process went smoothly, and the Great Dao did not harm him. Lin Yifan successfully advanced to the Great Immortal Second Realm.
Now, even when facing a master of the Great Immortal Fifth Realm, he had the ability to defeat them.
Upon emerging from his retreat, Lin Yifan happened to see the sky filled with colorful rays.
He had already advanced, and with the colorful rays appearing here, perhaps Lei Ming was also breaking through to a new realm?
After searching around, he found Lei Ming.
It turns out that these colorful rays were indeed summoned by Lei Ming, who was really breaking through to a new realm.
Everyone has their own path in Cultivation, and excessive involvement is counterproductive.
What Lin Yifan could do was stand guard around and provide Lei Ming a peaceful world.
For ordinary people, breaking through a realm was certainly not as fast as him, so he waited nearly half a day before Lei Ming successfully stepped into a new realm.
This breakthrough to a new realm took a lot of effort. In any case, Lei Ming was now covered in injuries, weak in aura, pale-faced, and urgently needed an Elixir for treatment.
Another hour passed before his condition improved.
