Chapter 1291: Return

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the blink of an eye, a Sanctuary powerhouse fell powerlessly, unable to retaliate at all. Caradio was so frightened that his liver and guts seemed to be on the verge of falling apart. He actually turned around, and tried to flee.

Although Sanctuary powerhouses were high and mighty like gods in the eyes of ordinary people, they were afraid of death too. In fact, they were even more afraid of dying than ordinary people. The more one had, the more afraid they were of losing everything. Sanctuary powerhouses were existences that stood at the peak of Anril. Regardless of their inherent life expectancy, their lifespan would be prolonged, so they naturally were even more afraid of losing everything compared to mortals.

Hence, when watching his companion die, Caradio didn’t even think of getting revenge or anything. Anyway, the other party was already dead. He wasn’t willing to give up everything he had for the sake of a dead companion. As for the elites of the Sea Serpent Clan, he didn’t have time to think about them at all. In the eyes of Sanctuary powerhouses, even those elites were considered nobodies who were only worthy enough of being cannon fodder..

Caradio turned around and fled, but Lin Li did not intend to let him off the hook. He pointed the Helios’ Scepter forward, and a magic palm instantly emerged from the void, stopping Caradio from leaving. Immediately afterwards, Caradio seemed to have collided with the palm, and he landed in the middle all of a sudden.

Bang! With a muffled thud, the Sanctuary powerhouse was actually crushed by the giant palm.

The two Sanctuary powerhouses died one after another, and the elites of the Sea Serpent Clan couldn’t care about continuing to surround the island. Of course, given their strength, they would no longer pose a threat to the Bellerophons without the help of Sanctuary powerhouses even if they fought with all their might. What could they do if they didn’t flee?

However, the elites of the Sea Serpent Clan soon realized that the space around them had been sealed at some point. Regardless of how hard they slammed their heads against the wall, and even when their heads began to bleed, they couldn’t take another step forward. Everyone felt extremely hopeless because now that the two Sanctuary-level elders had died, what were the chances of survival for nobodies like them?

At this moment, Lin Li stepped down from the deck of?The Star, and made his way to the island in the air, taking one step at a time. In fact, he wasn’t interested in killing the nobodies of the Sea Serpent Clan. Thus, he merely looked downwards, and coldly said, “Relay my message to your Great Monarch. If he doesn’t want the Sea Serpent Clan to be erased from the Endless Ocean, you’d better behave yourselves!”

As Lin Li said that, the elites of the Sea Serpent Clan also discovered that the power that sealed the space had also suddenly disappeared. However, despite facing such a situation, they did not run away in a moment of panic, for they feared that their behavior would make Lin Li displeased. Instead, they thanked him respectfully for sparing their lives before surging into the bottom of the sea and fleeing in all directions.

The elites of the Sea Serpent Clan naturally didn’t think that Lin Li was joking. There was barely anyone who could contend with his power and ability to kill two Sanctuary-level elders.

After the army of the Sea Serpent Clan retreated, Lin Li arrived in the center of the island, and saw the Bellerophons who had been protected by Norfeller.

The Bellerophons were no strangers to Lin Li, but they didn’t expect that a big shot like Lin Li would pay so much attention to a small clan like theirs who didn’t have much to offer. However, even though they couldn’t figure it out, it was a matter of fact that Lin Li had saved them, and this wasn’t the first time he had done so. Furthermore, Lin Li had long sent the vampire Norfeller to protect them.

Hence, upon sight of Lin Li, the Bellerophons immediately knelt down on the ground, and expressed their gratitude to Lin Li with a salute.

Seeing this, Lin Li waved his hand. Immediately afterwards, a strong force made all the people of the Bellerophon Clan stand up. He then asked, “Which one of you is the clan leader of the Bellerophons?”

A Bellerophon with a golden conch hung in front of his chest immediately stepped forward, and first bowed to Lin Li respectfully before saying, “Respected Master Felic, I’m Akana, the clan leader of the Bellerophon. Thank you so much for saving us when we were hopeless and in despair.”

Lin Li waved his hand with a faint smile on his face, and said, “Clan Leader Akana, you don’t have to be so polite. I’m actually very interested in your abilities, but I didn’t have the time to visit you previously, so I sent Norfeller to do so on my behalf.”

One ought to be glad or proud to hear that someone was interested in their abilities, but Akana looked rather helpless as he said, “You must be joking, President Felic. Our abilities are completely useless in this era. If there is anything you need us to do, we will certainly comply, but please don’t have much hope.”

Over the past thousands of years, the Bellerophon were almost considered good-for-nothings among the various Sea Clans of the Endless Ocean. Thus, even the clan patriarch, Akana, couldn’t help but develop an inferiority complex and sound rather humble at the mention of his clan’s abilities.

Lin Li could tell that Akana was not trying to avoid his request, but rather it was because he truly felt inferior. Hence, Lin Li smiled calmly, and said, “Clan Leader Akana, you don’t have to underestimate yourself. The usefulness of your abilities depends on what they are used for. Okay, I will skip the pleasantries, and get straight to the point. I hope you can select some people, and let them return to the Tower of Dusk with me. In addition, I will give you a letter, and you can arrange for your clansmen to go live with the Octopus Clan or the Siren Clan. I believe that they will take care of them on my account.”

Although the situation of the Bellerophons in the Endless Ocean was not as terrible as that of the Seahorse Clan, they were still pushovers. This time, they had spent all of the clan’s savings that had been accumulated over thousands of years during the auction of the Coral Staff at the expense of offending the Sea Serpent Clan. They had done so precisely because they were hoping that they could use it to change the fate of the entire clan.

Akana didn’t expect that Lin Li, who had already become a household name in the Endless Ocean, would develop an interest in the special ability of their clan. Besides, based on Lin Li’s arrangement, it was obvious that he didn’t just want to hire only a few Bellerophons. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been necessary for him to trouble the Octopus Clan and the Siren Clan for their sake.

With the protection of the Octopus Clan and the Siren Clan, the Bellerophons would at least be able to live better lives than before, even though there might not be a drastic change in their quality of life. However, more importantly, being able to establish connections with Lin Li was a rare opportunity that many people dreamed of.

Hence, as long as Akana was not a fool, he could not possibly refuse. He frantically nodded, and exclaimed, “Thank you so much, President Felic, everything shall proceed according to your arrangements!”

Akana personally selected 30 Bellerophons, all of whom were said to be the most talented youngsters in the clan. Of course, given the ability of the Bellerophons, the most talented ones were at most only level-5 or level-6. Akana seemed rather awkward when he handed the Bellerophons to Lin Li.

However, what Lin Li wanted was not a bunch of strong fighters. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have approached the Bellerophons. Thus, the strength of the Bellerophons didn’t matter to him at all. As long as the Bellerophon had the special ability to incite, they were enough for him.

Taking 30 Bellerophons away with him, Lin Li returned to?The Star, which then embarked on a journey back to the Breezy Plains. Norfeller was made to stay behind temporarily to help Akana with making arrangements for the matters of the clan for the time being in case the Sea Serpent Clan hadn’t learned their lesson, and came looking for trouble again. Norfeller’s duties would be completed only when the Bellerophons had moved to the sea area occupied by the Octopus Clan and Siren Clan.

Half a month later, the huge vessel,?The Star, sailed into the harbor of the Tower of Dusk.

Under Lin Li’s orders, the shipbuilders on?The Star?immediately resumed with the construction of a new ship with a large amount of data from?The Star‘s voyage. Lin Li wasn’t satisfied with having just one battleship, and since?The Star?had passed the test of a long voyage, it was time to use it as a model for new battleships, which Lin Li planned to produce in bulk.

The development of the Tower of Dusk in the Breezy Plains had reached a bottleneck, and if he wanted to continue to grow and develop, he could only do so by expanding beyond the Breezy Plains. On the mainland, the Breezy Plains was flanked by the Ledin Kingdom and the Felan Kingdom, so while the Tower of Dusk’s businesses could be expanded, the influence itself couldn’t really be expanded. Thus, he would have to expand in the direction of the sea, and obtain countless resources from it.

The idea of developing towards the Endless Ocean was something that came to Lin Li’s mind when he was building?The Star. When he went to the Gilded Kingdom this time, he had even built a great reputation for himself, and achieved great fame that would be extremely helpful to the development of the Tower of Dusk in the Endless Ocean. With his identity as a Guru of Inscription, there was probably no one in the Endless Ocean who would dare to provoke him easily, be it the Gilded Kingdom, the seven Overlord Sea Clans of the Endless Ocean, or the Illuminati.

Of course, the development of the Tower of Dusk was not the most important thing for Lin Li. Lin Li had a vague feeling that all the mysteries and doubts he had been having were about to be unraveled soon. The most important thing he had to do now was to improve his strength. No matter what the Immortal King was actually intending to do, and regardless of what the mysteries were really about, he would have enough confidence to face everything in the future only if he was strong enough.

Besides, for Lin Li, the transformation of the Sky Castle was undoubtedly a crucial factor to improve his strength as soon as possible. Lin Li knew very well that his desire to reach the Divine-realm wasn’t something that he could fulfill within a short period of time, so the modified Sky Castle would definitely be of great help to him in the future.

Lin Li was the one who designed the original transformation plan of the Sky Castle as a last resort in response to the lack of sufficient resources for the transformation. Thus, it definitely came with greater restrictions, and many of his ideal facilities and plans couldn’t be implemented due to the constraint.

Hence, upon returning to the Sky Castle, Lin Li gathered Gavin and the rest who were in charge of the transformation project, and started modifying the transformation plan for the Sky Castle. After all, things were different now, and even if he put aside the Endless Ocean for the time being, Connoris’ takeover of the Endless Abyss would provide an abundance of resources for the transformation of the Sky Castle.

After making the arrangements for the transformation of the Sky Castle, Gavin reported to Lin Li that an emissary of the Dwarf Kingdom had been waiting in the Tower of Dusk for more than two months.

Before going to the Gilded Kingdom, Lin Li had given half of the blueprint of the Sky-breaker to the Dwarf Kingdom, and put forward a proposal for them to cooperate to build the Sky-breaker. However, the senior executives of the Dwarf Kingdom were undecided, and had differing attitudes towards the Tower of Dusk because of the halved blueprint of the Sky-breaker. Some thought that they should ask the Tower of Dusk to return the other half of the blueprint, while some thought that they could cooperate with the Tower of Dusk. In fact, some even suggested that they resort to brutal force to snatch the blueprint back from them.

In the end, when Lin Li set sail to leave for the Gilded Kingdom, the Dwarf Kingdom finally reached a certain consensus, and sent an envoy to the Tower of Dusk to negotiate about the blueprint of the Sky-breaker. However, at that time, Lin Li was busy searching for answers and studying the Divine-Smith-level mageweath. Of course, he didn’t have time to meet the envoy.
