2572 Tunnel is Built!
After Lin Yuan pried Chu Ci’s arms away from him, he told Chu Ci and the Moon Empress, “Master, Chu Ci, can you wait for Wen Yu and me here? I will open a Space Tunnel here. There is a high possibility that it will be linked to the other side of the Barren Sea. If you’re interested, you can head to the other side with me.”

Chu Ci said cheerfully, “Lin Yuan, I’m willing to go with you!”

There was nothing that Chu Ci wanted more than to remain by Lin Yuan’s side.

If she could head to the other side of the Barren Sea with him, she would be able to stay with him for a long time. This would mean that she would be able to train with her brother.

The Moon Empress also wanted to go to the other side of the Barren Sea with Lin Yuan to explore what was there.

But she soon gave up on that idea because she now handled many of the Radiance Federation’s administrative matters on the Spacetime Elder’s behalf. There were too many things in the Radiance Federation she needed to worry about and attend to. She needed to do her best for the Radiance Federation now that she had undertaken this responsibility.

Hence, the Moon Empress reached out and patted Chu Ci’s shoulder as she told Lin Yuan, “Let Little Ci go with you. I’ll be at the Radiant Moon Palace waiting for you to return. Remember to keep yourselves safe while you’re out there training and exploring. Don’t allow yourselves to fall into danger!”

Despite knowing that Lin Yuan was already stronger than her, the Moon Empress still could not help but nag at him.

Lin Yuan nodded seriously before saying, “Wen Yu, hold an Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting now! I’ve already told you about Bei Xu’s situation. When we get there, send the Ethereal Jellyfish’s main tentacle to Bei Xu immediately!”

As the Astronomical Parliament’s Stars increased, Wen Yu needed less time to prepare for the parliamentary meeting. Previously, she needed more than half an hour. But now, she could kickstart the parliamentary meeting almost immediately.

Otherwise, she would have begun preparing for the ritual when she learned that Lin Yuan was about to arrive.

The other members of the Astronomical Parliament had not been aware of this parliamentary meeting. Bei Xu had told Lin Yuan about his situation but had decided not to inform the other members of the Astronomical Parliament.

Since they obtained the Thoughts Letter Paper, the frequency of parliamentary meetings decreased because they could discuss most matters through the Thoughts Letter Paper.

Lin Yuan had been very busy of late and had not spent physical time with Wen Yu for a long time.

He had not had time to inform the others this time. As a result, many members of the Astronomical Parliament were caught off guard!

Nonetheless, they immediately stopped what they were doing, found a place without anyone else, and responded to the call!

Lin Yuan had already removed the Ethereal Jellyfish’s main tentacle, and Wen Yu zeroed in on Bei Xu’s location. She used the Astronomical Parliament’s Star Spirit Seat and paid the required cost of laws to deliver the Ethereal Jellyfish’s main tentacle to Bei Xu.

At that moment, Bei Xu appeared in the Astronomical Parliament.

The figures in the Astronomical Parliament were comprised of souls, willpowers, and laws. Lin Yuan and Wen Yu could sense how weak Bei Xu was. From this, Lin Yuan knew that he was in grave danger. Luckily, he was still alive!

Once Bei Xu appeared, he said, “Leo, they have captured and brought me back to the city. I am now being held in an underground prison. There are many experts in the city. If you deliver something to me—”

Before Bei Xu could finish speaking, Wen Yu immediately cut in. “The item is going to reach you at any moment. You don’t have to worry about our safety. If Leo has decided to save you, it means you don’t have to worry about your own safety. Otherwise, Leo would not have put all his business aside and chosen to hold this parliamentary meeting!”

Bei Xu suddenly felt a wave of shame. But at the same time, he was touched. Something like this would never have happened if he had only been more careful!

By this time, Yin Lin, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, Bu Po, and Peace had all appeared amongst the constellations. Only Wo Lun and Ta Lei were still absent.

Given that the most important matter at hand was saving Bei Xu, Lin Yuan did not explain the situation to the five of them now. Instead, he decided to end the parliamentary meeting before summoning the Ethereal Jellyfish’s last main tentacle.
Next, he tossed out a large handful of Diamond Item-Storing Walnuts.

The Ethereal Jellyfish absorbed the spatial energy within the Diamond Item-Storing Walnuts and tried to establish a connection with the main tentacle he had delivered to Bei Xu.

At first, the Ethereal Jellyfish was unsuccessful in linking up with the main tentacle. But as it continued to absorb more spatial energy, it slowly started to react and its tentacles waved around in front of Lin Yuan.

The Ethereal Jellyfish began babbling as it waved its antenna around, signaling Lin Yuan that its link to the main tentacle was still weak. It needed more spatial energy to fully open the Space Tunnel.

As the Ethereal Jellyfish’s grade continued increasing, so did its intelligence.

Thus, the Ethereal Jellyfish could give Lin Yuan an estimate of how many more Item-Storing Walnuts it required.

The Ethereal Jellyfish still needed at least 400,000 Item-Storing Walnuts in order to build the Space Tunnel.

This number exceeded Lin Yuan’s estimate. Luckily, he nurtured the Item-Storing Walnuts continuously.

If the Ethereal Jellyfish’s main tentacle had already been sent over but Lin Yuan did not have enough spatial energy to open the Space Tunnel, he would be put in a very awkward spot!

Lin Yuan sent the Medusa Snake Demons to collect and transport the Item-Storing Walnuts. Otherwise, it would take him a very long time to move all 400,000 Item-Storing Walnuts on his own.

With the help of the Medusa Snake Demons, the Ethereal Jellyfish received enough Item-Storing Walnuts to build the Space Tunnel.

The Moon Empress was taken aback by the Item-Storing Walnuts that Lin Yuan had produced.

There were very few spiritual ingredients that contained spatial energy. It was unlikely for the Radiance Federation to come up with this same number of spiritual ingredients that contained spatial energy.

As the spatial energy continued to ripple and bubble, the Ethereal Jellyfish’s dark red body turned silver, and the silver glow warped the nearby space.

Fortunately, the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift was sufficiently stable. Otherwise, the Ethereal Jellyfish’s opening of this Space Tunnel would have had an effect on the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift.

Slowly, a silver door formed in front of the Ethereal Jellyfish.

Lin Yuan stored Chu Ci and Wen Yu inside the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad. He nodded at the Moon Empress, then stepped through the door that the Ethereal Jellyfish had created.

Due to the tangling of space, it was difficult for Lin Yuan to keep track of time.

After an unknown amount of time had passed, he finally saw a glimmer of light in front of him. He emerged from the door with a skull-splitting headache.
