The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 268: Traveling around the world and understanding the world

Yun Che smiled at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with satisfaction and pride. He gently patted Lin Yi's shoulder and said approvingly, "You've done very well, Lin Yi. I believe that in the days to come, you will become a leader in the world of cultivation."

Lin Yi took the shimmering jade pendant from Yun Che, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. This jade pendant contained the essence of Yun Che's inner fire. He carefully wore it on his body, as if he could feel a warm and powerful force protecting him.

"Master, I will definitely work hard and live up to your expectations." Lin Yi said firmly, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Yun Che nodded, gazing deeply into the distance. “The path of cultivation is endless. Only through constant exploration and understanding can one achieve breakthroughs. I have decided to travel the world, comprehend the universe, and seek more opportunities and enlightenment.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi felt a surge of reluctance. But he knew this was the only way for his master to improve his cultivation and pursue a higher realm. So, he suppressed his inner turmoil and said respectfully, "Master, take care on your journey. I will practice diligently at home and await your return."

Yun Che smiled and patted Lin Yi's shoulder, then turned and set off on his journey. His figure stood tall and straight in the morning sun, like a warrior about to embark on a journey.

Yun Che journeyed westward, passing countless mountains, rivers, and streams. He stood atop a towering peak, overlooking the magnificent scenery below. The mountains stretched endlessly, shrouded in clouds and mist, like a moving ink painting.

“The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is truly rich.” Yun Che took a deep breath, feeling the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him, and couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

Just as he was immersed in the beautiful scenery, a rapid roar of an animal shattered the tranquility. Yun Che frowned and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a gigantic beast galloping wildly from the mountains and forests. This beast was covered in crimson scales, its eyes were like torches, and it spewed blazing flames from its mouth, appearing extremely ferocious.

"Is this... the Scarlet Flame Beast?" Yun Che was startled. He knew full well that this strange beast was powerful and formidable. But as a cultivator, he naturally wasn't afraid of a challenge.

The Scarlet Flame Beast seemed to have noticed Yun Che's presence. It roared and suddenly accelerated towards him. Yun Che dodged the Scarlet Flame Beast's attack with ease. He quickly formed seals with his hands and chanted, "Flame Slash!"

Following Yun Che's command, a blazing flaming blade burst out from his hand and flew straight towards the Scarlet Flame Beast. Seeing this, the Scarlet Flame Beast spewed out a ball of flame from its mouth, attempting to block the attack of the flaming blade.

However, Yun Che's flaming blade was so powerful that it instantly penetrated the Scarlet Flame Beast's flame barrier and fiercely slashed into its body. The Scarlet Flame Beast let out a scream and its huge body fell heavily to the ground.

Yun Che retracted his flaming blade and walked over to the Scarlet Flame Beast. He looked at the injured beast, a surge of pity welling up in his heart. But as a cultivator, he knew he couldn't show mercy to his enemies. So, he steeled his heart and ended the Scarlet Flame Beast's suffering with a single strike of his sword.

“Alas, this is also your fate.” Yun Che sighed softly, took out the Scarlet Flame Beast’s beast core, and put it in his pocket.

Yun Che continued on his journey and came to the ruins of an ancient and mysterious city. This ancient city was once glorious, but now only broken walls and ruins remained, telling of the vicissitudes of the past.

Yun Che walked through the ruins, taking in the historical atmosphere of this ancient city. He walked to a dilapidated temple, and his eyes were drawn to a string of mysterious runes on the temple wall.

These runes shimmered with a faint light, as if imbued with some mysterious power. Yun Che's heart stirred, and he reached out to touch them. In an instant, a powerful wave of energy emanated from the runes, enveloping him completely.

Yun Che felt his vision go dark, as if he were drawn into a mysterious space. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a world filled with fantasy. It was filled with swirling clouds and mist, and a fairy-like aura drifted in the air, like a fairyland.

"Where is this...?" Yun Che looked around, his heart filled with doubt. At this moment, an old voice rang out in his ears: "Welcome, young cultivator. This is the Rune Dimension. Only those who truly understand the way of runes can enter here."

Yun Che was shocked when he heard this. He asked respectfully, "Senior, are you the guardian of this rune space?"

The old voice sounded again: "Indeed, I am the guardian of the Rune Space. Your ability to enter here means that you already have the potential to comprehend the way of runes. I am willing to teach you the art of runes and help you further your cultivation."

Yun Che was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly bowed, “Thank you for your cultivation, Senior.”

In the days that followed, Yun Che diligently cultivated within the rune space, gradually mastering the essence of the rune technique. He not only learned how to draw runes and unleash their power, but also comprehended the subtle connection between runes and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

When Yun Che walked out of the rune space, his cultivation had already greatly improved. He felt the surging power in his body, and his heart was filled with confidence and anticipation.

Yun Che left the ancient city ruins and continued westward. He crossed a vast desert, feeling the scorching heat and desolation.

Just as he was exhausted and thirsty, a clear voice rang in his ears: "Hey, are you okay?"

Yun Che looked up and saw a woman in red standing before him. This woman had a beautiful face and a graceful figure, like a blooming desert flower.

“I’m fine, thank you for your concern, young lady.” Yun Che smiled faintly and bowed.

The woman in red looked at Yun Che's bewildered appearance and couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Looking at you like this, you must be lost. How about this, I will lead you out of this desert."

Yun Che was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly expressed his gratitude, “Thank you for your help, young lady.”

Led by the woman in red, Yun Che successfully walked out of the desert. As they walked and chatted, they gradually became familiar with each other. Yun Che learned that the woman in red was named Hong Ling, a cultivator from a distant land.

“Miss Hong Ling, why are you walking alone in this desert?” Yun Che asked curiously.

Hong Ling smiled slightly and said, "I came here to look for a precious medicinal herb. This herb only grows deep in the desert and is extremely rare. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Upon hearing this, Yun Che couldn't help but admire Hong Ling's courage and determination. They had traveled together, overcoming many hardships and dangers. As they spent time together, Yun Che and Hong Ling gradually developed a deep friendship.

One day, Yun Che and Hong Ling arrived at the entrance of a mysterious secret realm. This secret realm is said to hide countless treasures and opportunities, but it is also full of unknown dangers.

"Let's go in." Hong Ling looked at the entrance to the secret realm, her eyes flashing with excitement.

Yun Che nodded and entered the secret realm with Hong Ling. They passed through a dark forest and arrived in front of a huge cave. Rumbling sounds could be heard from within the cave, as if some enormous creature was wreaking havoc within.

“Be careful.” Yun Che warned, and walked into the cave carefully with Hong Ling.

Shortly after they entered the cave, they saw a gigantic monster rushing out from the darkness. The monster was clad in black armor, its eyes flashed like lightning, and it breathed out a chilling cold air, making it look particularly terrifying.

"Is this... a giant ice beast?" Hong Ling's face changed. She knew very well that this kind of monster was very powerful and difficult to deal with.

Yun Che took a deep breath and stood back to back with Hong Ling. They knew that facing such a powerful enemy, only unity could defeat it.

The giant ice beast roared and charged towards Yun Che and Hong Ling. Yun Che quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered, "Flame Storm!"

Following Yun Che's command, a fiery storm of flames erupted from his hands, heading straight for the giant ice beast. Seeing this, the giant ice beast spewed out a stream of cold air from its mouth, trying to resist the attack of the fire storm.

However, Yun Che's firestorm was so powerful that it instantly penetrated the ice beast's cold barrier and slammed into it fiercely. The ice beast let out a scream and its huge body fell heavily to the ground.

But at this moment, the giant ice beast suddenly rose from the ground, its eyes flashing with madness. It opened its mouth wide, and a powerful suction force came out of its mouth, trying to suck Yun Che and Hong Ling in.

Seeing this, Yun Che and Hong Ling quickly mobilized their cultivation to resist the suction. However, the ice beast was too powerful, and they gradually felt powerless.

“This isn’t a solution.” Yun Che was burning with anxiety. He looked at Hong Ling beside him, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes. “Hong Ling, you go first. I’ll hold it back.”

Hearing this, Hong Ling's eyes flashed with tears: "No, I can't leave you alone."

"Don't be silly. You'll only become a burden to me if you stay." Yun Che steeled his heart and pushed Hong Ling away. He turned to face the giant ice beast, quickly forming seals with his hands, preparing to launch the final attack.

At this moment, a golden light burst out from Yun Che's body, instantly enveloping him completely. Yun Che felt a powerful force surge into his body, and his cultivation level was greatly improved at this moment.

“Is this… the power of Heart Fire?” Yun Che was shocked. He had not expected that at this critical moment, the power of his Heart Fire would explode like this.

He felt the power surge within him, his heart filled with confidence and determination. He rushed towards the giant ice beast, clenched his fists, and slammed into it fiercely.

The giant icy beast let out a scream, its massive body gradually crumbling under Yun Che's bombardment. Finally, it collapsed to the ground with a loud thud, and there was no more movement.

Yun Che looked at the fallen icy beast and breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at Hong Ling and said with a smile, "We succeeded."

Hong Ling looked at Yun Che, tears and admiration glistening in her eyes: "Yun Che, you are truly amazing."

Yun Che smiled and shook his head: "This is also thanks to the power of your heart fire. Without it, I would not be able to defeat this ice beast."

They continued to go deeper into the secret place,
