By the third attempt, the Origin Force inside had undergone a qualitative change, allowing his Biological Level to successfully evolve from Rare Eighth Order Great Perfection to Rare Ninth Order.

Lin Zichen cared very much about why Shen Qinghan, who had been sharing a bed with him, had never once dreamt about the Abyssal Butterfly.

"Never had one, not even once."

Facing Lin Zichen's question, Shen Qinghan shook his head in response.

After hearing this answer, Lin Zichen fell into deep thought.

Was the appearance of this dream unrelated to the location?

Was it only something that he and his parents experienced?

Could no one else have this dream?

Well, there was also the nearly three-month-old sister who might have had it.

...

About an hour later.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan successfully arrived at the leading family of Nanjiang Province—the Yuan Family.

The two had thought that this great family would have an extremely luxurious palace.

But upon entering, they found it was an ancient-looking mansion.

Everything inside looked very retro.

However, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan didn't pay much attention to these details. They entered the mansion and, following the butler, proceeded into a room, where they saw Yuan Dongzhi, unconscious.

The usually imposing Yuan Dongzhi now appeared as a ghastly pale vegetative person, motionlessly lying in bed.

And the usually flirtatious Liu Chuanwu was now sitting by the bed, carefully looking after Yuan Dongzhi.

Lin Zichen stepped forward to check on Yuan Dongzhi's condition.

He released his spiritual power.

It smoothly infiltrated her body, roaming everywhere.

He carefully inspected every corner.

After a thorough examination,

Lin Zichen found that Yuan Dongzhi's soul had sustained severe damage, visibly marked by many cracks, which was horrifying to behold.

With such severe damage, no wonder she had become a vegetative person, unconscious.

Had Yuan Dongzhi not been a Rare Level fighter, she probably would have succumbed to brain death already.

"Lin Zi, how did the examination go?"

Seeing Lin Zichen retract his spiritual power, Shen Qinghan immediately asked, unable to wait.

Lin Zichen shook his head, "Principal Yuan's injury is to the soul, which touches upon the areas I know nothing about. I am powerless."

If Yuan Dongzhi had merely sustained severe physical injuries, Lin Zichen would still be able to treat her with Qi-Blood transfusion.

But Yuan Dongzhi's injury was to the soul, which he truly could not treat.

"In that case..."

Shen Qinghan felt somewhat disappointed.

Later, Lin Zichen also helped to check Liu Chuanwu and discovered his soul was also injured, which he could not treat either.

Seeing that he couldn't help, Lin Zichen didn't insist. He and Shen Qinghan simply cared for the two for a while and soon left the Yuan Family.

The Yuan Family themselves had an Epic Level Expert.

If something even an Epic Level Expert couldn't accomplish, how could he possibly do it?

When leaving, the Yuan Family's patriarch, a powerful Epic Level Expert, invited Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan to have dinner.

Lin Zichen wasn't interested and politely made an excuse to decline.

Tomorrow they were to return to the Origin Land.

In this last night, he and Shen Qinghan just wanted to be home with their parents.

After all, once they entered the Origin Land, it would be at least three months before they could see their parents again.

Although Lin Zichen wasn't as home-loving as Shen Qinghan, he still missed his parents deeply after not seeing them for three months.

...

Time flew swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, the next morning had arrived.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan got up early and made a rich breakfast for their parents and sister.

Their culinary skills surpassed those of Zhang Wanxin.

The porridge, soy milk, and buns they made kept their parents and sister eating nonstop.

Especially Lin Ziying, who, with a spoon constantly shoving porridge into her mouth in her right hand and also stuffing a bun into her mouth with her left hand, looked like a beggar who had been starved for days on the street.

Lin Zichen watched his foodie sister across from him, and while he felt that it was incongruous, he also found it adorable.

The incongruity lay in the fact that his sister was just a three-month-old baby girl, yet her appetite surpassed that of an adult.

The adorableness was in how naive Ziying looked while eating; her cheeks puffed out like Crayon Shin-chan from Sakura Country.

"Husband, look how happy our baby eats; it seems our son and Han Han's cooking really is better than mine," Zhang Wanxin said.

Zhang Wanxin watched her incessantly eating daughter, her face still graceful and full of doting smiles.

Lin Ziying was the second daughter she had given birth to after turning forty, and she doted extremely on this young little girl.

While munching on a bun, Lin Yansheng nodded in agreement, saying, "Their cooking skills indeed seem a bit better than yours; it's a case of the student surpassing the master."

Hearing this response, Zhang Wanxin's face darkened instantly.

She could admit her cooking was inferior to her son's and future daughter-in-law's, but as her husband, Lin Yansheng shouldn't have.

Seeing her face turn grim, Lin Yansheng realized he had misspoken. He immediately shut his mouth and silently bowed his head to continue eating his bun.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan couldn't help but laugh at this scene.

When someone belittles themselves, as a listener, it's best not to agree by saying "right" but to say, "No way, that's not true at all."

Zhang Wanxin didn't stay upset for long and soon regained her normal expression. She then turned to Shen Qinghan, "Han Han, you're staying overnight here with Xiao Chen every day; your parents don't mind?"

While sipping on her porridge, Shen Qinghan replied, "My dad has some objections, but my mom doesn't; she can't wait for me to sleep with Xiao Chen every day."

On hearing this, Zhang Wanxin immediately beamed with a smile, "That's like your mom, thinking exactly like me."

She, just like Xu Meng, couldn't wait for Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan to sleep together daily, hoping to become a grandmother sooner.

Nowadays, besides spending two hours a day typing, she had lots of idle time.

For this reason, she earnestly hoped for another baby in the house to keep her busy.

...

After finishing breakfast.

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan played with Lin Ziying for a while before they left the house and flew toward the Capital City, returning to the Origin Land to shine brightly.

On their way to the Capital City, the couple chose not to take a military helicopter, but instead chose to expend spiritual power for Flight Control to practice their flying skills.

Soon, the two of them flew from Shanhai University to the headquarters of the Military District in Capital City.

After landing, they proficiently verified their identities and went through the biological passage to return to the long-missed Origin Land.

Back in the Origin Land.

Lin Zichen immediately went to the Abyss behind the city, wanting to see from the outside if this so-called "Abyss," the Life Forbidden Zone, was really the same as the pitch-black space he dreamt about in his dreams.

He wanted to verify.

Unfortunately, before he even got close to the periphery of the Abyss, he was stopped by someone.

The Abyss was very dangerous, even Legendary Level Experts did not dare to ensure they could come back alive.

And Lin Zichen, although a genius, still only ranked as a Rare Level biological being.

The general guarding the area behind the city and adjacent to the Abyss did not think Lin Zichen would survive in the Abyss, thus did not permit him to enter.

Seeing that the Abyss was off limits, Lin Zichen did not insist.

He only thought to himself that once he reaches the Legendary Level, he would explore the Abyss.

...

In the blink of an eye.

Several days had passed.

That morning, as dawn just broke, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan left their dorm early, flying towards the direction of the city gate.

Their strength had now reached the Rare Level category, allowing them to freely detach from the Alien Human Level Genius team and choose to act independently.

Under this premise, Lin Zichen decided to join the city's survey team to venture outside the city.

The city's survey team was primarily responsible for surveying the landscape of the Origin Land to expand the understanding of its range.

To join the survey team, one had to be at least a Rare Level or above.

The team leader himself was an Epic Level Being, and among them, he was on the stronger side.

After all, exploring new maps requires substantial strength, otherwise, one might end up in the belly of a beast shortly after entering risky areas.

"Has everyone gathered yet!"

Seeing the time to depart was nearing, the survey team's captain shouted in a loud voice.

...
