When Yun Lintian returned to his room, he put Qingqin, who was already falling asleep, on the bed and covered her with the quilt before walking to the living room, where everyone was waiting for him.
"What happened?" Lei Feifei couldn't help asking.
Yun Lintian took a sip of water and asked. "Do you know about a spirit body?"
"Spirit body? You mean a body that manifested from an artifact's spirit?" Lei Zhenxiang said with a frown. "I have read about it but never seen it with my own eyes."
"Correct." Yun Lintian looked at Lei Zhenxiang and said further. "I won't hide anything from you. Qingqing is a spirit body of my artifact."
Except for Han Bingling and the others who already knew about this, everyone was shocked to hear it.
"Then what happened to her?" Lei Zhenxiang recovered from the shock and asked curiously.
"She used too much of her power earlier to protect us." Yun Lintian said. "The woman covering from head to toe is likely to be a spirit body, too. She used her power to pry into our bodies, and Qingqing blocked it."
"She's a spirit body?" Han Bingling was surprised. She didn't feel anything except for a powerful aura from Madam Leisure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYun Lintian nodded. "It shouldn't be a mistake. Qingqing told me herself."
"This place is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons." Ren Mingzhu sighed in awe. Even though she had a father who stood at the peak of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm, it didn't prevent her from getting amazed by the powerhouses here.
Lei Zhenxiang frowned deeply. "If she's a spirit body, then who is her master?"
As soon as he said this, everyone immediately fell into silence. What did it mean? Madam Leisure was extremely powerful already. What about her master, the owner of the artifact?
"Could it be the Boundless Desert Emperor?" Lei Feifei suddenly said. "Except for him, there shouldn't be any person who is qualified enough to own such a powerful artifact."
Qing Wuji and the others nodded in agreement. Even though they had no idea how powerful the Boundless Desert Emperor truly was, it was highly possible to be him.
"This person is too mysterious. I can't find a single clue about him since we came to this place." Gong Yanhong said. "Except for his name, we literally know nothing."
Everyone glanced at each other and fell into silence once more.
Yun Lintian thought for a long time and said. "Forget it. We will eventually know later. Let's prepare for the upcoming venture."
The competition would end in two days, and it would be time to set off toward the Central Ruins afterward.
As for Madam Leisure, Yun Lintian didn't believe she would dare to come over again after getting blocked by Qingqing once.
As much as everyone wanted to discuss this further, there was no clue to continue. They simply returned to their respective rooms and waited for the time.
Inside the bedroom, Yun Lintian lay on the bed with Han Bingling in his arms while staring at the ceiling in a daze.
"Are you thinking of the Boundless Desert Emperor?" Han Bingling drew a circle on his chest boringly while asking.
"To this point, I'm not sure what kind of stance he would take. If he wants to attack me, he should have done it long ago. Why bother to wait until now?" Yun Lintian said. He was helpless on this matter since he had no clue to analyze further. All he could do was wait to enter the Central Ruins and figure it out himself.
Han Bingling smiled charmingly and snuggled closer to his chest. "In fact, you don't have to think about it. There are too many possibilities. It's impossible for us to figure it out. Like you said before, we will eventually know it later."
Yun Lintian didn't say anything. Although he said that, he couldn't stop thinking about it. It was his habit, after all.
Seeing that Yun Lintian was distracting again, Han Bingling curled her lips and gradually sat on top of him, revealing her peerless naked body.
Yun Lintian's gaze was immediately attracted by the beautiful picture in front of him, and a certain part of him was awakened.
"Let's not think about it, okay?" Han Bingling said softly while adjusting her position. Her voice was extremely seductive, causing Yun Lintian's blood to boil.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWithout thinking further, Yun Lintian immediately turned over and pushed her to the bottom. Soon, the room was filled with heavenly melodies, upsetting Linlin, who was staying in the side room again.

Three days later. An increasing number of profound practitioners were starting to depart toward the Central Ruins. Although many of them couldn't enter the ruins, it didn't prevent them from looking at it. After all, this was a rare opportunity.
The Central Ruins were at the center of the Boundless Desert. The place was normally controlled by the Boundless Desert Emperor's forces and Yuan Duyi. Without their permission, whoever dared to approach this place would be killed directly.
"So this is the Central Ruins." Standing on the sea of sand and looking at the dense sandstorms in the distance, Lei Feifei said with a frown.
Judging by the look of it, she didn't know how everyone was going to pass through such a powerful sandstorm.
Yun Lintian stared at the sandstorms in the distance and tried to perceive The Earth, but he couldn't feel it in the end. This made him doubt further. What was happening to The Earth?
At this moment, more than twenty people were standing not far away from Yun Lintian. These people exuded the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm's aura. Their faces were cold as they looked at everyone who came today.
These people were no other than the guards who were protecting this place under the Boundless Desert Emperor's order.
Yuan Duyi walked forward and said to the stout man, who seemed to be the leader of the group, and said. "Everyone is here. Shall we start?"
The stout man swept his gaze over all the ten participants and paused on Yun Lintian's group before saying. "Let's start."
