"laugh!"
A sword intent as thin as a hair pierced the wall, like spider silk seeping into tofu, constantly drilling deep holes inside.
Su Lin closed his eyes slightly, and after more than ten minutes, he slowly released the spiritual energy from his palm.
"alright."
He turned to look at Xiao Linlin, and together with his entourage, they saw the newly appearing information notification.
Congratulations to survivor "Su Lin" for earning the "Patience Badge"!
A golden light suddenly descended from the sky, floating in front of Su Lin. Xiao Linlin raised her small hand and grabbed it; it was a new badge.
"Brother, you're amazing! You got it done so quickly!"
Xiao Linlin chuckled as she played with the badge in her hand, while Li Xingtian nodded with satisfaction: "Lin'er's talent is indeed remarkable. Her control over inspiration is exquisite and ingenious."
Instead of using spiritual energy to break through the walls, they broke through to a sufficient depth according to the rules themselves, proving that the [new cave] has no height requirement.
"Um."
Su Lin nodded slowly. His attendants did not bring up the content of their previous discussion, and Su Lin did not want to ask any further questions.
He knew that if he kept asking Xiao Linlin about things she didn't want to talk about, he wouldn't get any answers and would only be led astray by her.
He had already prepared some answers; and he could try to change some aspects of the future.
"Let's go."
Su Lin looked up and saw that the safety membrane at the entrance had disappeared. He stepped through without looking back.
The world outside the cave wasn't a new world; instead, as the view swayed, they quickly landed in a brightly lit waiting area.
You have acquired a new badge type, and its effect can be triggered at any time.
[Patience Badge (Privilege)]: In this promotion match, one of your individual strength types will be randomly restored, or there is a 50% chance that two individual strength types will be randomly restored. The privilege of a badge can only be used once. After use, the badge loses its privilege, but it can still be retained as proof of successful promotion.
“Use privileges.”
Su Lin didn't delay. The moment the information notification appeared, he used the privilege of the Patience Badge, and a ray of colorful light appeared beside his hand.
Su Lin reached out and clenched his fist, and the Breaking Luck Sword slowly emerged from his hand.
At the same time, a second ray of colored light emerged from his body, and the luck-enhancing protective gear attached to his body slowly appeared, allowing him to put it on again.
"We're lucky this time; we've managed to revive two of our strongest projects at the same time!"
Xiao Linlin was a little surprised, and looked at Su Lin with a grin: "Brother, there's only one badge left. We should wait for our old friend before that."
"An old friend?"
Su Lin looked at Xiao Linlin, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Xu Zhiyi?"
"Yes, brother, look at the ranking information."
Su Lin looked in the direction Xiao Linlin was pointing: "A small number of people on the leaderboard are stuck on the progress of obtaining four badges. Strong people like Luo Han and Wang Dingguo have long since collected four badges but have not yet gone to get the fifth one."
"I think it's not that the fifth badge is too difficult, but that they have the same tacit understanding and don't go to the final step of promotion."
"Of course, I think it's impossible for everyone in the waiting area except my brother to be united and in sync; the probability is too low."
"Therefore, the only reason all of this could have happened is because of Xu Zhiyi. She is stopping us and using her own methods to keep most people here, preventing the first person to be promoted from appearing in the waiting area for a long time."
As soon as Xiao Linlin finished her analysis, Su Lin saw a woman walk out from the crowd in the distance, smiling as she approached him, surrounded by her followers.
It was Xu Zhiyi. Just as Xiao Linlin had analyzed, she appeared at the perfect moment when Su Lin obtained the fourth badge and took the initiative to contact Su Lin.
"Mr. Su, we meet again."
Under Su Lin's watchful gaze, Xu Zhiyi quickly approached and smiled and nodded.
"Um."
Su Lin nodded slowly, looking the woman up and down.
Xu Zhiyi put away her playful demeanor, met Su Lin's gaze calmly, and suddenly smiled: "Mr. Su, it's really rare that you didn't kick me out this time."
“We can talk, let’s be more open and honest.”
Su Lin said calmly, "No need for nonsense, let's find a quiet place."
"As you wish."
Xu Zhiyi smiled, magically flipped her hand to reveal a card, and flicked it lightly.
A transparent ray of light passed through them, forming an absolute information barrier between Su Lin and himself, completely blocking the senses of his followers and others.
"Your skills have improved again."
Su Lin scanned the barriers with his divine sense and found that even he could not perceive the crowd just a step away.
"Mr. Su is joking. It's not just you who is getting stronger; everyone here is working hard for themselves."
Xu Zhiyi tossed her hair aside, and Su Lin asked calmly, "So what are you working hard for, and what kind of future do you want?"
In this temporary space, there were only Su Lin and Xu Zhiyi, and no one else, so there were many questions that could be asked more directly.
"A free future, just like what Mr. Su pursued."
Xu Zhiyi tilted her head and suddenly smiled: "Of course, it also includes some lofty ideals, but it might make you laugh if I mention them, so there's no need to."
"Actually, from the very beginning, my husband and I had the same pursuits. We shared common goals and interests, which is why I firmly believed that we could become partners."
"Really? You're still targeting friends?"
Su Lin put away his smile and asked directly, "Since you have the talent of prophecy, you should know what kind of partners I will accept. You can use more appropriate methods to approach me instead of making me resist you."
