Chapter 1038 New Cultivation Realm (2)

?

Once Lin Fan stepped out, he couldn't help giving a sigh.

He had expected something to happen when he was in the meeting with the elders, but that didn't seem to be the case.

The system had stayed silent the entire time.

So he couldn't help being disappointed when he came out.

It seemed like he really did have to consider going to the Lin Astral Family about this matter. While it would cause a large problem and take a long time, he couldn't just cause trouble for his family by running off again.

But before he could come to that decision, the system notification suddenly appeared.

"You have unlocked a new special cultivation realm."

When Lin Fan heard this, he couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.

Before even opening the panel, he could already guess what kind of cultivation realm the system offered him. Then when he actually opened it and saw what it was, there was a look that showed that he wasn't surprised by what he saw.

As expected, it was the Phoenix Race homeworld.

As he had expected, the system had been watching and listening to everything.

But it was only when he had no other choice that the system would act.

It was almost as if the system was alive and deciding everything for him.

Lin Fan just silently stood there for a bit which surprised the elders that were guiding 

him.

They turned to ask him if something was wrong, but Lin Fan just told them that it was nothing before walking in silence. The look in his eyes made it clear that he was lost in thought.

When they arrived back at the Azure Dragon Tribe, Lin Fan didn't go into the secret room right away.

Instead, he found a private place to have a conversation.

As for who he was having a conversation with…it was the system.

If someone had passed by and seen what had happened, they would have thought that Lin Fan was crazy. That was because to an outsider that didn't know what was happening, it would have seemed like Lin Fan was just talking to himself.

At first, Lin Fan just stood there without saying a thing before he suddenly said, "You're there, aren't you?"

There was no answer that followed this, but Lin Fan didn't expect one in the first place.

Of the many times that he had tried to talk to the system, there wasn't a single time where he had succeeded.

Every time that he had tried to engage the system, he had always been met with silence.

This time wasn't an exception as all that met his question was more silence.

Lin Fan waited a bit longer before not minding the silence and asking, "Just what do you want?"

Just like before, there was silence that met this question.

But Lin Fan didn't give up as quickly as last time and just stood there in silence.

While it seemed like he wasn't thinking anything, there were actually many things that were passing through his mind. Many of these things were things that had happened in the past and had involved the system.

As he thought through these things, the thoughts that he had began changing.

It was as if he was beginning to lose more and more faith in the system and even had thoughts about finding ways to get rid of the system.

But that couldn't be blamed on him when he had a system that kept guiding him around with things like missions and didn't tell him a single thing. It was clear that there was some kind of plot involving him that was dragging him further and further in.

Once he got too deep, he wouldn't be able to run away even if he feared for his life.

As these thoughts filled his mind, there was a certain person in a golden palace that became more and more worried.

Finally, Lin Fan asked the final question that he had, "Do you plan on hurting me?"

This question wasn't actually a question that he had planned on asking, but since this system had been with him for so long and it had "helped" him in many situations, he did feel close to it.

Not to mention, it was the only thing that reminded him that he was a transmigrator.

So he couldn't help wanting to take it as his partner.

Not receiving an answer from the system, Lin Fan wasn't surprised. He just gave a sigh and was about to leave when…

"The system was made specifically for the host and has no intentions of hurting the host. Is that answer satisfactory?"

Lin Fan's foot that had been raised couldn't help freezing in the air when he heard this.

He was silent for a bit longer before asking the system, "What do you want?"

Once again, the system fell silent and didn't say a single thing. It was as if the system was deliberating, but at the same time, it was as if this was something that the system couldn't talk about.

Lin Fan once again started having certain thoughts…

But then the system said, "Keep following the path that is ahead of you, even if it is to meet the five sacred beast races. At the very least, you'll learn a bit about the God Realm and what it means to be a god. Once you know more, see if you want to walk on the path that I have set for you."

This time, Lin Fan couldn't help being taken aback.

That was because he had clearly heard the system use the word "I".

It was as if the system was talking about itself, but Lin Fan knew that it wasn't the system that was saying this. Rather, it was the one who had designed the system, the one who had given it to him.

It should be one of the Gods from the world of gods.

Lin Fan knitted his brows slightly when he heard this and he asked, "Why can't you just give me a simple answer?"

After a bit of silence, the system said, "If you receive the answers now, you won't reach the conclusion that you're meant to reach. Only when you put in the effort to reach the end, will you have your opinion and your own ideas. Only when you reach the end on your own will you be able to properly decide what you want."

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows even more when he heard this.

There was a long period of silence that followed as many different thoughts passed through Lin Fan's mind, but this time, the context was very different.

Based on the experiences that he had, he had already figured out that something must have happened in the world of gods.

For them to create this system and even rely on a transmigrator, it was clear that they were getting desperate.

Since that was the case…then Lin Fan had no choice but to accept the words that the system had said and see things through to the end.

He also felt that this was what he owed to himself after everything that he had gone through.

When these thoughts passed through Lin Fan's mind, that person inside of the golden palace let out a sigh of relief.

He had been able to buy time, but just how much time would he be able to buy?

Eventually, Lin Fan needed to know the truth…

After making up his mind, Lin Fan confidently walked off without asking the system another thing. He knew that the system or whatever was behind the system would be able to read his thoughts to a certain extent, or else they wouldn't have said anything just now.

So Lin Fan went back to the secret room where the others were anxiously waiting for him.

When they saw him come in, they immediately asked about what the elders said.

Once they heard that the elders had approved of the plan to head to the Phoenix Race, the one that let out the biggest sigh of relief in the end was Feng Ling.

If the elders didn't allow them to go, then they wouldn't be able to reach deep enough into the Phoenix Race to find out what was happening.

While Lin Fan might be able to go there, they wouldn't have anyone to talk to and figure out the problems of the Phoenix Race.

So it was good that they were able to get help from the Dragon Race.

Though Feng Ling did feel a bit of guilt about dragging the Dragon Race into this private matter.

As for the two days wait, she knew that this was something that was expected. It took time to set these things up, so she knew that it couldn't be rushed…or at least it couldn't be rushed too much.

Lin Fan had already done quite a bit by shortening it down to two days.

She would have thanked Lin Fan for this, but he was busy being attacked by Qing Bao Lan right now.

Qing Bao Lan had thought that Lin Fan would come back with Xiao Feng and she had gotten herself worked up about it. So when she saw that Lin Fan was back by himself, she was crushed and she took out all those bad feelings on Lin Fan.

Qing Ao would have been there to comfort Qing Bao Lan, but this time, he was looking at Feng Ling.

So in the end, Lin Fan was left to suffer Qing Bao Lan's "wrath".

Though the one that suffered was Qing Bao Lan whose little fists hurt from hitting Lin Fan.
