With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Right now, there was nothing that Lin Fan could do in this place.

Until he became stronger and he upgraded the system, there was nothing that he could do to the immortal artifact that was sealed here.

Since that was the case, there was nothing to gain from wasting too much time in this place.

Though Lin Fan did make sure to reduce the death energy that was flowing out of the temples to a certain degree. At the same time, Lin Fan went around looking for some of the spirit beasts that had been disturbed by the increase in death energy concentration.

These were the spirit beasts that had found their way up above ground and had caused trouble for the disciples of the Love Sect.

He was dealing with them before they could reach the surface, so that they wouldn't have to worry about anything.

Even if these spirit beasts could control death intent, they just weren't a match for Lin Fan and his suction force. All of the death energy that was released by the spirit beasts were all absorbed by the punches that Lin Fan released.

They didn't stand a chance against him since he neutralized all of their attacks.

Lin Fan even gathered these spirit beasts and drained them for a while before putting them out of their miseries.

The death energy that they provided was good nourishment for the Nine Desolation Tree Seed.

After that was all taken care of, Lin Fan floated up into the sky and reached the roof above him.

He was in the exact same place that he was previously when he arrived in this place.

With a wave of his hand, the grains of dirt went into the roof above him and there was a force that opened up the same path as before. As soon as he opened up the path, Lin Fan had no hesitation as he flew away from this place.

Though the path that was opened up immediately closed behind him as he continued rising up.

When he came up to the surface, the hole completely closed behind him.

If they didn't see it, they wouldn't have known that there had been a hole there previously.

Lin Fan was planning to look around to see if he could find anyone, but the moment that he came to the surface…

"Master!"

"Sect master!"

There were many voices that rang out around him.

Lin Fan was surprised to find that it wasn't just Huang Xie and Xiao Ming that were here, there were many other members of the Love Sect that were here. It was the elders and the disciples of the Love Sect that had all gathered in this place.

Only it wasn't that they all just gathered in this place, there were many different tents that had also been pitched. Find your next read on empire

It seemed that they had created an entire shelter where the hole had been. With the way that they hung around the camp and even guarded around the hole, it was as if they had been waiting for Lin Fan the entire time.

As soon as he came out, Lin Fan was surrounded by all the different members of the Love Sect.

The elders were the ones that approached the quickest along with Huang Xie and Xiao Ming, the rest of the disciples weren't as fast as the elders, so they only formed the outer circle.

After surrounding him, they all looked around him as if they were trying to see if he was hurt at all.

There was a bitter smile that appeared on Lin Fan's face, but he didn't say anything as he waited for them to finish. He knew that it would be simpler if he didn't do anything and just accepted what they were doing.

When it was over, Senior Brother Ying asked, "Sect master, what happened down there?"

The others immediately perked up when they heard this.

They all looked like they wanted the answer to this question.

It was just that Lin Fan didn't give them that answer.

Instead, he said, "It's not something that you need to know. Just keep sending the disciples out to find their opportunities and look after them. I'll be resting in the tent for a bit."

They looked disappointed when they heard this, but they didn't stop him since they knew that he must be tired after what happened.

It had already been three days since Lin Fan went into the hole and they had no idea what happened to him during his time down there, they were just certain that it wouldn't have been easy.

So no one wanted to stop Lin Fan from getting a rest now that he was back.

But as Lin Fan headed into the tent, he waved at Huang Xie to follow him.

Huang Xie was surprised and confused, but he still followed Lin Fan into the tent in the end.

Only Lin Fan didn't want to talk to Huang Xie in the first place.

The one that he actually wanted to talk to was Hei Gui.

When they were alone in the tent, Lin Fan said, "Call him out, I want to talk to him."

Huang Xie knew who Lin Fan was referring to, but there was a moment of hesitation as if he didn't want to do it. But in the end, he still called out Hei Gui for Lin Fan.

Hei Gui was surprised to be called out by Lin Fan, but he still asked, "What happened down there?"

Hei Gui was genuinely curious since he had never heard of something being under Death Valley before. From what he had heard about the Five Great Sects, they had only ever explored the area above the ground and never mentioned a place under Death Valley.

Lin Fan didn't say anything at first as if he was judging Hei Gui which made Hei Gui even more confused.

But in the end, Lin Fan started giving him some ideas of what was under Death Valley.

"So what's the source of the death energy?" Hei Gui asked in a curious voice.

Lin Fan didn't answer this question and instead asked, "Do you know anything about the All Time Sect and the Chaos Sect?"

"Chaos Sect?!" Hei Gui said in a shocked voice.

Judging from this, it seemed that Hei Gui did know what the Chaos Sect was. But it didn't seem like he knew what the All Time Sect was since he didn't react as much to that.

Lin Fan didn't mind this for now and continued by asking, "What is the Chaos Sect?"

A bitter smile appeared on Hei Gui's face as he said, "I never thought that I would hear about the Chaos Sect after all this time. It really has been a long time since I've heard that name."

Both Lin Fan and Huang Xie knitted their brows when they heard this.

After a while, Hei Gui said, "I don't know where you learned about the Chaos Sect, but the time of the Chaos Sect is long past. The Chaos Sect was an ancient sect that was the precursor to the Five Great Sects, or at least that was what I heard. I was never actually able to confirm this."

"Precursor to the Five Great Sects?" Lin Fan asked in a shocked voice.

Hei Gui gave a slow nod before saying, "That's what I've heard about them. I don't know how valid this information is, but…I've also seen some things that do confirm this."

After a moment of thought, Hei Gui added, "Though that only applies to the four righteous sects, it doesn't apply to the Heavenly Demon Sect. I've never seen anything linking the Heavenly Demon Sect to any ancient sects. It was as if they had always been there."

Lin Fan knitted his brows again, but he eventually gave a nod to show that he understood.

But even after this nod, he still asked, "What about the All Time Sect, have you really not heard anything about them?"

This time, it was Hei Gui's turn to knit his brows.

The look on his face was as if he was seriously thinking about this, but in the end…

"I've really never heard anything about them." Hei Gui said with a shake of his head.

Lin Fan didn't say anything at first as if he was waiting for Hei Gui to say something else, but it didn't seem like there was anything else that Hei Gui had to say.

So in the end, Lin Fan gave another nod and waved his hand before saying, "You guys can leave now, I need some time to rest."

Hei Gui nodded and disappeared without a word, but Huang Xie didn't leave right away as he stood there with a worried look on his face.

Seeing him like this, Lin Fan patted Huang Xie on the shoulder and said, "I'm fine, I really am fine. I'm just a bit tired after being down there."

Huang Xie didn't respond at first, but he eventually gave a nod and said, "Alright, please rest up, master."

Then he turned to leave, though he did turn back from time to time with a worried look on his face.

Lin Fan just smiled as he watched Huang Xie leave.

The moment that Huang Xie went out the door though, there was a frown that appeared on his face.

Those four righteous sects really did act the same way as those from the Chaos Sect that he met, so he believed that they would have some connection.

Only what happened to the remnants of the All Time Sect?
