Chapter 701

Synchronous Advancement
Translated by Yan of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

One month later, an enormous stretch of dark clouds gathered in the sky above Ghost Tomb Mountain Range.

Several flashes of lightning would occasionally flash through the dark clouds, and the thunder made it seem as if a heavy rain was about to fall. The people of White Bone Town were already used to seeing this.

Within this past year, they had already witnessed the dark thunderclouds at least ten times before. Every time it was extremely impressive and they could essentially see it and hear it even from the very edge of the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range. At the beginning, everyone made a huge fuss about it and almost believed that the world was ending, but after it appeared two or three times in a single month, they all calmed down.

If some outsider grew alarmed over it, the citizens of White Bone Town would even look down on them. After that, many people knew that the people of White Bone Town all liked to look down on outsiders’ panic. As a result, when more outsiders came across this kind of situation, they didn’t dare to make it too obvious. Right now, when they saw the dark clouds again, everyone merely glanced at it before continuing whatever they were busy with. Very few people cared enough to take a second glance.

However, the other people weren’t calm. From the moment the dark clouds started to gather above Ghost Tomb Mountain Range, Lin Ming was so startled that he jumped, his expression both shocked and happy, but still a little worried.

“This aura, could it be that Xiao-er is about to advance?” Lin Gu stood up with surprise. Even though he had never experienced this kind of situation when advancing, he could still tell that it was definitely someone strong who was about to advance. Furthermore, this aura was much more powerful than he had imagined, powerful to the point of being beyond reasonable limits.

Lin Ming frowned. “It seems so, but it feels as if there’s something extra.”

Lin Gu looked worried. “What’s extra? Haven’t you already experienced it before? Will something happen to Xiao-er this time while advancing? Aren’t these dark clouds a little bit too excessive?”

“I also think it’s strange. Back then, when I advanced into seven stars, it wasn’t this odd. I keep feeling as if there’s something extra in the dark clouds above us!” Lin Ming also remained perplexed.

When Lin Gu saw that he couldn’t pinpoint why, he simply turned and left.

Lin Ming hastily pulled him to a stop. “Where are you going?”

Lin Gu didn’t even look back when he responded, “I’m going over to the palace to take a look, or else I won’t feel at ease.” Last time when Lin Ming’s son was in secluded cultivation, it was almost fatal. This time, no matter what he couldn’t just sit and do nothing.

“You can’t!” Lin Ming forcefully rejected him.

“Why not?” Lin Gu looked back and stared at him, a trace of stubbornness and obstinate appearing on his refined face.

Lin Ming felt his heartstrings tug with his stare. It had been a very long time since he had last seen Lin Gu look like this, and it made his heart itch. The lines of his face immediately relaxed, and he chuckled. “A-Gu, I know that you’re very worried about Xiao-er. I’m also worried about him, but you also know that in these circumstances, you can’t transport anything. Even if you don’t use a transport circle, by the time you hurry over there, it’ll have ended.”

Lin Gu knew that what he was saying was very logical, but he was still worried.

Lin Ming quickly said, “A-Gu, you have to believe in that damn brat. He isn’t an impulsive person. I imagine that he’s been preparing for this for a long time already, or else he wouldn’t have chosen now to do it. Also, his wife is still at his side. With him there, there shouldn’t be too many problems.”
