### **Chapter 1381 — The One Who Never Died**
The chamber remained silent—
After the ancient pulse beneath the battlefield awakened—
No one spoke for a long moment—
Because even from countless miles away—
They could feel the faint pressure leaking from the middle region—
Then—
Yang Lin calmly opened his eyes—
And quietly said—
"That old man is still alive."
The moment those words fell—
Daji and Ning Mei's expressions changed instantly—
Because there was only one "old man" terrifying enough—
To make Yang Lin mention him directly—
Ning Mei's voice became slightly heavy—
"…The wounded Ancient king of Rui Star?"
Yang Lin nodded once—
"He awakened."
The room froze completely—

### **Chapter 1382 — The Seal That Opened Every Three Years**
Wind drifted softly outside the chamber—
Yet the atmosphere inside felt increasingly tense—
Yang Lin calmly continued—
"The battlefield seal opens once every three years."
"And in two days…"
"It will open again."
Han Qing's breathing slowed unconsciously—
Because everyone understood what that meant—
Every opening of the ancient battlefield—
Brought countless cultivators from across the Inner Upper World—
Not only for opportunities—
But for ancient inheritances—
Immortal techniques—
Buried treasures—
Fragments of Immortal King intent—
And legendary ruins left behind from the ancient era of the Rui star

### **Chapter 1383 — The Place Where The Laws Did Not Exist**
FeiFei softly asked—
"…Will the Inner World laws suppress everyone there too?"
Yang Lin calmly shook his head—
"No."
The room immediately became quiet—
Because throughout the Inner Upper World—
Cultivators above Earth Immortal Tenth Stage Peak—
Were heavily suppressed by the fragmented laws—
Yet inside the ancient battlefield—
Those suppressions did not exist—
Because the battlefield itself—
Originated directly from the ancient ara of the Rui star—
Its laws were incomplete—
Broken—
And entirely different—
Meaning—
True power could be unleashed there—
---
### **Chapter 1384 — The Things Hidden Inside**
Yang Lin's gaze remained calm—
"Inside the battlefield…"
"There are creatures that survived since ancient times."
"Ancient beasts."
"Broken immortal souls."
"And old beings whose cultivation once stood within the Immortal King Realm."
Han Qing felt chills run down her spine—
Because just hearing those words—
Already made the battlefield sound like a forbidden land—
Daji quietly added—
"Some of them…"
"…are older than entire sects."
The chamber became silent once more—
---
### **Chapter 1385 — The Powerful Forces Gathering**
News of the battlefield opening—
Spread across the Inner Upper World like wildfire—
Countless sects—
Ancient clans—
And immortal families—
Immediately began moving—
Because every opening—
Created new legends—
And buried countless corpses—
Among the arriving forces—
Were the Four Great Immortal Sects—
The Heavenly Void Sect—
The Azure Flame Sect—
The Nine River Palace—
And the Eternal Moon Pavilion—
Alongside them—
Came the Five Ancient Families—
The Luo Family—
The Qin Family—
The Bai Family—
The Shen Family—
And the Gu Family—
Each possessing terrifying foundations—
---
### **Chapter 1386 — The Experts That Arrived**

Shen Family Lord Shen Taixu—
Gu Family Patriarch Gu Jianli—
All standing at terrifying realms between Earth Immortal Tenth Stage Peak and Peak Tenth Stage Completion—
Behind them—
Followed countless elders—
Most standing between Earth Immortal First Stage—
And Earth Immortal Fifth Stage Peak—
---
### **Chapter 1387 — The Geniuses Of This Generation**
But the true focus—
Were the younger geniuses entering the battlefield—
Because the battlefield restricted bone age—
Only younger cultivators could enter deeply into certain sealed regions—
Among them—
The Heavenly Void Sect's strongest disciple—
Xu Canghai—

Known for killing opponents across realms—
Azure Flame Sect genius—

Possessing Ancient Flame Bloodline—

Known as one of the most beautiful women of the younger generation—
The ancient families also brought monstrous talents—
Luo Tianyu—
Qin Xue—
Bai Chen—
Shen Yutong—
And Gu Xuan—
All standing between Empire Realm First Stage—
And Empire Realm Third Stage Peak—
Each possessing terrifying talent—

### **Chapter 1388 — The Group That Arrived Quietly**
Two days later—
The ancient battlefield finally appeared—
A massive shattered world floating between heaven and earth—
Surrounded by ancient sealing formations—
The sky above it distorted endlessly—
Ancient laws flowing like broken rivers—
Outside the battlefield entrance—
Countless sects and families gathered densely—
Immortal ships filled the skies—
Ancient beasts roared across clouds—
Then—
A small group quietly arrived—
Yang Lin—
Su Qinglan—
FeiFei—
Han Chen—
Han Qing—
Ning Mei—
And Daji—
Their arrival was calm—
Without grand momentum—
Yet the moment Daji and Ning Mei appeared—
Many old experts instantly narrowed their eyes—
Because even with their cultivation suppressed—
Their aura still carried unimaginable depth—
---
### **Chapter 1389 — The Whispers That Spread**
Whispers quickly spread among the gathered cultivators—
"Who are they?"
"That white-haired woman…"
"Her aura feels terrifying…"
"And the black-robed man beside them…"
"I can't sense anything from him at all…"
Many geniuses secretly observed Yang Lin—
Yet the more they looked—
The less they could understand—
Because Yang Lin's presence felt strangely ordinary—
But also impossible to perceive clearly—
Xu Canghai frowned slightly—
"…Strange."
Yue Bingxin silently looked toward Yang Lin—
For reasons she herself couldn't explain—
Her instincts warned her not to approach casually—
---
### **Chapter 1390 — The Whisper Only A Few Heard**
The ancient battlefield trembled faintly—
As the three-year seal slowly weakened—
Cracks spread across the massive formation surrounding the entrance—
Ancient aura leaked outward continuously—
Causing even Earth Immortal experts to become serious—
Then—
Very softly—
Almost like a whisper to himself—
Yang Lin spoke—
"Several Immortal King remnants are awake now."
Daji and Ning Mei's expressions changed instantly—
Because they understood the true meaning behind those words—
Not dead remnants—
Not lingering intent—
Awake—
Meaning—
Some ancient existences within the battlefield—
Still possessed consciousness—
And somewhere deep beneath the shattered ancient world—
An old pair of eyes—
Slowly opened within endless darkness—
