《This Is A True Friend, He Will Stand Up When Things Go Bad》 Chapter 1 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Jade Lotus town was a small border town in a remote area of the Qing Xuan Continent. In this border town, there were three prominent families, Lin, Su, and Li, who occupied the resources of Jade Lotus town equally. Today, there were no clouds in the sky, and the sun shone brightly. In the land of the Lin family, a 16-year-old boy was leaning against a big tree with his hands behind his head. The young man placed his right foot on his left and crossed them while chewing a blade of grass in his mouth. The warm sunlight bathed him through the gaps between the leaves, and he looked very comfortable. ¡°Unknowingly, I have lived in this world for sixteen years.¡± Lin Tian raised his lazy eyes and looked at the sky as he muttered. Lin Tian¡¯s thoughts slowly sank into the past with this soft voice. He was not a person from this world. Sixteen years ago, he suddenly transmigrated and was reborn into this mystical world in the nine regions. Lin Tian, who transmigrated and was reborn, was a collateral descendant of the Lin family. And his parents in this life had passed away due to an accident when Lin Tian was young, so he didn¡¯t have any impression of them. But perhaps his parents had brought some contributions to the Lin family before they died. After they died, they brought Lin Tian back to the Lin family to be adopted. It was not to the extent that he would starve to death on the streets and end his life in advance. ¡°F*ck. Why is it that those who transmigrate are either princes or holy sons of the holy land? Furthermore, they¡¯ve awakened all sorts of cheat-like golden fingers. ¡°It¡¯s fine that I don¡¯t have a prestigious identity. I don¡¯t even have the standard golden fingers of a transmigrator. Furthermore, my cultivation talent is extremely low. ¡°After cultivating for sixteen years, I¡¯m still only at the initial stage of the body strengthening stage.¡± Thinking back to the past ten years, Lin Tian became angrier and angrier. He couldn¡¯t help but point his finger at the sky and Grumble angrily. In the nine regions, mortals could obtain powerful abilities through cultivation. A cultivator who cultivated to the extreme could move mountains, overturn seas, reverse the stars, and shift the stars with ease. The cultivation realms from low to high were the body strengthening stage, Qi refining stage, sea of soul stage, and spiritual soul stage. In Jade Lotus town, the highest cultivation realm was the spiritual soul realm, and cultivators of this realm were the strongest combat strength of the three great clans. At Lin Tian¡¯s age, most people had either reached the late stage of the body strengthening realm or had already broken through to the Qi refining realm. For example, he had only reached the early stage of the body strengthening realm at sixteen, and he was the only one in Jade Lotus town. Lin Tian seemed to have vented a lot of the resentment and anger in his heart after cursing at the sky. His expression became gentle, and he sighed softly: ¡°Why did I help that old woman back then?¡± Before he transmigrated, Lin Tian was a good student in the 21st century. He had always believed in helping others when they were in trouble. However, when he was doing his internship in his third year of university, he met an old lady who collapsed under the sun. She moaned in pain and kept waving her hand. Seeing this, Lin Tian did not say anything. He went forward and helped the old lady into the shade. He even accompanied her to the hospital. Just as Lin Tian was about to leave, the old lady suddenly grabbed his hand and insisted that Lin Tian had knocked her down. She wanted to compensate him for the medical and recovery nutrition fees. This shocked Lin Tian greatly. For the first time, the faith that he had been holding onto was shaken. He took out all the money he had and gave it to the old lady. Only then was he able to leave and get rid of the old lady¡¯s entanglement. On the way back, Lin Tian was in a daze because of this matter. Therefore, he did not notice the huge cart speeding toward him when he was crossing the road. He was directly sent flying into the sky. When Lin Tian woke up again, he was already in this mystical world. Furthermore, his memories from his previous life followed him as he traveled through time and was reborn. At the thought of this, Lin Tian¡¯s expression turned gloomy. He couldn¡¯t help but sigh, ¡°It¡¯s tough to be a good person!¡± ¡°I, Lin, swear that I will never do a good thing again in this life.¡± Just as Lin Tian was sighing and swearing in his heart, a crisp voice was heard. ¡°Lin Tian, what are you saying over there?¡± An innocent young girl walked into the courtyard with light footsteps. The person who came had long, silky hair that danced in the wind. She had long, slender eyebrows, eyes that sparkled with Starlight, a sharp nose, and a small cherry-like mouth. She looked like a lively and beautiful young girl. Her green, willow-colored, thin gown gave her a youthful and cute look. This young girl was the youngest daughter of the master of the Lin family, Lin Yu¡¯er. She was about the same age as Lin Tian. Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er had grown up together in the Lin family since they were young, so their relationship was pretty good. Seeing Lin Yu¡¯er walk over without waiting for her to speak, Lin Tian¡¯s face was expressionless as he said in a flat tone, ¡°I¡¯ll make it clear in advance. If you need help, don¡¯t look for me. I¡¯m not unable to help.¡± Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, Lin Yu¡¯er was stunned at first. She only wanted to look for Lin Tian and didn¡¯t want to ask him for help. Moreover, her current cultivation was at the advanced body strengthening stage, and Lin Tian was only at the early stage of the body strengthening stage. How could he be of any help? ¡°You took the wrong medicine today. You¡¯re so rude right away.¡± After coming to her senses, Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s face was slightly angry. She pouted her tiny mouth and snorted lightly, saying, ¡°Besides, with your current cultivation level, you won¡¯t be able to help me if I really need your help.¡± Hearing Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s words, Lin Tian thought and said in a daze, ¡°That seems to be the case.¡± ¡°It seems that someone from the family is coming today. Do you want to go over and look?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er did not care about Lin Tian¡¯s dazed look and directly told him the purpose of her visit. Lin Tian thought for a moment. Since he only had this talent for cultivation, it wouldn¡¯t have much effect no matter how much he cultivated. Thus, he agreed to go and take a look with Lin Yu¡¯er. ¡°Anyway, I don¡¯t have anything to do today. It¡¯s also good to join in the fun.¡± At the same time, the head of the Lin family, Lin Zhenshan, and some core members of the Lin family gathered in the Lin family¡¯s main hall. Among them, Lin Zhenshan¡¯s strength was the strongest. He was already a late-stage sea of soul realm cultivator, while the others were all in the Sea of Qi realm. Besides the Lin family, there were also four cultivators dressed in sect attire in the main hall. Each of them exuded an extraordinary aura. They were all in the Sea of Qi realm at a young age. Just like the elders of the Lin family, they could tell that the cultivation of talent of these four people was higher than that of ordinary people. ¡°Miss Liu Qing can be said to be the favored daughter of heaven. She has already joined the number one sect in the Qing Xuan continent at fifteen.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. At fifteen years old, her cultivation has already reached the intermediate stage of the Qi refinement realm. Compared to Miss Liu Qing, the young master of our Lin family is far inferior.¡± At this moment, in the main hall, a few elders of the Lin family were flattering a beautiful and pretty young girl. However, Liu Qing¡¯s emotions were unmoved throughout the entire process. Her expression was arrogant, and her gaze was cold, giving people a feeling of being a thousand miles away from her. Looking at the noisy main hall, Lin Zhenshan, sitting high on the family head¡¯s seat, coughed lightly. The elders in the main entrance immediately tactfully stopped talking, and the entire Main Hall immediately fell silent. Following that, Lin Zhenshan looked at the cold-faced Liu Qing. Although he felt a little unhappy about this, he still revealed a smile and said, ¡°You should be here for the engagement with Haoyu, right?¡± At this time, Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er had already arrived at the side of the main hall. After hearing Lin Zhenshan¡¯s words, they raised their eyebrows and whispered softly, ¡°Don¡¯t bully the young and poor?¡± The Haoyu in Lin Zhenshan¡¯s mouth was the young master of the Lin family, Lin Haotian, who had grown up together with Lin Tian. He was slightly older than Lin Tian, so Lin Tian called him big brother. Initially, Lin Haoyu¡¯s talent in cultivation was powerful. When he was ten years old, he had already cultivated to the advanced stage of the body strengthening state. He was only one step away from breaking through to the Qi refining state. The advanced stage of the body strengthening state at the age of ten was a genius that had never been seen in Jade Lotus town. At that time, everyone thought highly of Lin Haoyu¡¯s talent and thought that he would definitely become a powerful figure in the future. However, some accidents happened later, causing his foundation to be damaged, and he became trash that could not cultivate. Now, Lin Haoyu actually had a marriage contract. His fianc¨¦e was also a favored daughter of the heavens. Combined with these circumstances, Lin Tian immediately thought of a specific novel from his previous life that broke off an engagement. Just as Lin Tian was astonished, Liu Qing, who had an arrogant expression, finally said the first thing she said when she arrived at the Lin family¡¯s main hall. ¡°That¡¯s right, I came to the Lin family today to break off my engagement with Lin Haoyu.¡± Chapter 2 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°It really is such a melodramatic plot. Looks like there are melons to eat.¡± After Lin Tian heard Liu Qing¡¯s words, he was even more certain of the future developments. He looked like he was watching a show. However, Lin Yu¡¯er, beside him, was not as calm as he was. She was outraged as she glared at Liu Qing in the main hall. Lin Haoyu, who Liu Qing had annulled, was Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s biological brother. When the members of the Lin family in the main hall heard Liu Qing¡¯s words, they were all stunned on the spot. The elders of the Lin family knew about the engagement between Lin Haoyu and Liu Qing. This was precisely because they knew that they would compliment Liu Qing so much just now. ¡°Liu Qing, are you joking with Your Words?¡± Lin Zhenshan put away his smile just now. With a serious expression, he took the initiative to probe. ¡°I never joke about my marriage.¡± Liu Qing¡¯s attitude was firm, and she shouted sternly, ¡°The current Lin family has declined and suffered in this small border town. Now Lin Haoyu has lost his cultivation and become a waste.¡± ¡°And now I have joined the number one sect in the Qing Xuan continent. I¡¯m destined to soar to the sky.¡± ¡°The engagement with Lin Haoyu is a hindrance to me. It will only affect my future development.¡± ¡°Moreover, the engagement between Lin Haoyu and me was made privately before I was born. You didn¡¯t ask for my permission.¡± ¡°Therefore, I came to the Lin family to cancel this ridiculous engagement personally.¡± After hearing Liu Qing¡¯s words, some of the members of the Lin family in the main hall had ugly expressions, while some of them were gloating. ¡°As expected, the next step should be to take out a treasure to entice Lin Haoyu to agree to the annulment of the marriage.¡± Lin Tian muttered softly. His eyes were filled with an expression exactly as he had expected. Lin Zhenshan, seated in a high position, furrowed his brows tightly, his expression displeased. No matter what, his Lin family was still a large family clan. Now that the woman annulled the marriage, he could not bear to lose face no matter what. Immediately after, Lin Zhenshan asked with a heavy expression, ¡°Did your parents go through your parents when you came to the Lin family to break off the engagement?¡± When the Lin family had not yet declined, Liu Qing¡¯s family had been suppressed by other competing families. It had already reached the point of bankruptcy. During the crisis, the Liu family sought the help of the Lin family, which was how they were able to get out of their predicament and use the situation to develop rapidly. Later on, to repay the Lin family¡¯s help and to deepen the relationship between the two families, the infant Lin Haoyu and Liu Qing made a marriage contract. ¡°My parents knew and agreed, but because of their previous friendship with you, they didn¡¯t follow me to the Lin family.¡± Liu Qing¡¯s expression was calm as she said this. ¡°Haha, the relationship between the Liu family and us, the Lin family, don¡¯t dare to climb high.¡± Lin Zhenshan suddenly sneered at himself. As the head of the family, he had already seen through the fickleness between people. ¡°Since your parents have already agreed to support your choice, I can¡¯t say anything more.¡± ¡°But if you want to break off the engagement, you have to see if my son Haoyu agrees.¡± ¡°If he doesn¡¯t agree, this marriage will not change.¡± Although the Lin family had declined, the family¡¯s backbone still existed. How could Lin Zhenshan tolerate being ridden on the head by a little girl like Liu Qing? After saying that, Lin Zhenshan said to the middle-aged man beside him, ¡°Lin Fu, go and see where Haoyu is.¡± ¡°Okay, patriach.¡± Just as he said that a stern voice suddenly came from outside the main hall. ¡°There¡¯s no need to trouble uncle Fu. I¡¯m already here.¡± A handsome youth walked into the main hall and stopped in front of Liu Qing. It turned out that after Lin Haoyu knew that his child¡¯s betrothed, Liu Qing, had come to the Lin family today, he, with his meticulous thoughts, quickly guessed that the other party had come with ill intentions. Hence, when he arrived at the main hall, he did not directly enter but instead eavesdropped outside the main hall. Lin Haoyu¡¯s sudden appearance attracted everyone¡¯s attention. Some of the elders began to whisper among themselves. ¡°This young family head sure knows how to find the right time. Why did he only appear when Liu Qing said he would break off the engagement?¡± ¡°Hehe, I just don¡¯t know how he will deal with this awkward situation.¡± ¡°It hasn¡¯t been a day or two since Lin Haoyu became a good-for-nothing. What is this bit of humiliation?¡± Hearing the discussions between the Lin family, Liu Qing was confident that the young man in front of her was her fianc¨¦, Lin Haoyu, whom she had never met before. She immediately said, ¡°You came just in time. As long as you sign the agreement to end the marriage, I will give you a treasure that can repair your body and allow you to cultivate again.¡± As she spoke, Liu Qing flipped her right palm upward. As the storage ring on her finger flickered, a green, spiritual fruit the size of a pigeon egg appeared in her palm. ¡°This is a green jade green heart fruit, a black grade spirit herb. It has the effect of rebuilding one¡¯s foundation. It is extremely rare.¡± ¡°The one in my hand is a thousand years old and is even rarer.¡± After hearing Liu Qing¡¯s introduction, everyone from the Lin family stared at the green jade green heart fruit in her hand with their eyes wide open. Spirit herbs were divided into four grades: Heaven, earth, black, and yellow. The Heaven grade was the best, and the yellow grade was the least. The highest spiritual medicine that had appeared in Jade Lotus town was only a black grade spiritual medicine. Moreover, it was a rare spiritual medicine that was hard to come by for ten years. There was no market for it. Liu Qing¡¯s first move was an earth-grade spiritual medicine. How could the members of the Lin family covet it? Even Lin Zhenshan¡¯s gaze was slightly wavering at this moment. He wanted to go up and persuade Lin Haoyu to accept this fruit. However, Lin Haoyu was unmoved by this. He did not seem to mind. After seeing Lin Haoyu¡¯s attitude, Liu Qing¡¯s eyes revealed some dissatisfaction. She had already taken out such a treasure, but the other party was indifferent. Then, she continued, ¡°Presumably, the current Lin family wouldn¡¯t be able to take out this green jade green heart fruit. Only if you consume this spirit fruit and restore your foundation you might have a chance to restore the family¡¯s glory in the future.¡± ¡°Moreover, even if you, Lin Haoyu, don¡¯t agree, I, Liu Qing, will definitely not fulfill the marriage contract and marry a good-for-nothing like you.¡± At this time, Lin Haoyu¡¯s cousin, Lin Xinran, jumped out and said in a strange tone, ¡°Lin Haoyu, you¡¯d better agree. In any case, your current appearance is not worthy of sister Liu Qing.¡± ¡°It¡¯s better to accept this spirit fruit and restore your foundation. Why not?¡± Lin Xinran¡¯s cultivation was at the advanced stage of the body strengthening stage. Her age was one year different from Lin Haoyu¡¯s. Still, the former was far inferior to the latter in terms of talent cultivation. This was also why Lin Haoyu had often stolen Lin Xinran¡¯s limelight since he was young, and Lin Xinran had been eyeing him ever since. ¡°Xinran, stop fooling around.¡± Lin Xinran¡¯s father, Lin Zhenhai, called out softly. After hearing Lin Zhenhai¡¯s words, Lin Xinran did not say anything else because her goal had been achieved. Lin Xinran¡¯s words directly exposed Lin Haoyu¡¯s situation, and Lin Haoyu began to fall into a difficult decision. The atmosphere in the hall immediately became awkward. Everyone was waiting for Lin Haoyu¡¯s decision. If Lin Haoyu accepted Liu Qing¡¯s spirit fruit, it would be a slap to the Lin family¡¯s face. If he didn¡¯t accept it, Liu Qing would obviously not continue to fulfill the engagement. The Lin family¡¯s face would still not be any better. In any case, no matter what Lin Haoyu¡¯s choice was, he would definitely be criticized by the Lin family in the future. His lineage would definitely lose the support of the Lin family in the future. Such an outcome was what Lin Xinran wanted. ¡°That Liu Qing is really going too far. No, I want to go in and give her a good scolding and stand up for my brother.¡± Seeing her brother¡¯s sad look, Lin Yu¡¯er was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves and wanted to rush into the main hall. As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Tian grabbed Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s hand and said calmly. ¡°Don¡¯t be so agitated. What can you do if you go in?¡± ¡°Can you beat that Liu Qing?¡± As soon as she finished speaking, an electronic synthesized notification sounded in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. [Ding! The host is watching a big show. The help system has been bound!] Chapter 3 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Why did the system wake up at this time?¡± Lin Tian was stunned when he heard the system notification. ¡°Wait a minute.¡± Lin Tian seemed to have heard the phrase ¡°Helping others¡± from the system notification. He suddenly felt that something was wrong and quickly tried to communicate with the system. ¡°System, I think I just heard you say that helping others is fun. What does that mean?¡± [ host can help others solve their current predicament. After completing the mission, you will receive a lottery ticket. ] ¡°What the F * CK is wrong with this? Why would I awaken such a crazy system?¡± Hearing the system¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian could not help but curse in his heart. ¡°I just swore not long ago that I would never do anything good in my life, and now you¡¯re doing this to me. Are you playing with me?¡± Just as Li Tian was grumbling, the system¡¯s notification sounded again: [ Ding! ] [ the system has successfully activated, starting to send out the novice gift bag! ] [ Congratulations, host, you have obtained a bronze ten-draw lottery ticket! ] ¡°HMM?¡± ¡°Bronze ten-draw lottery?¡± Hearing the system¡¯s novice gift bag notification, Lin Tian could not help but feel a little surprised. The system¡¯s notification continued to ring. [ do you want to use the bronze ten-draw lottery ticket now? ] ¡°Do you even need to ask? Of course, I want to draw!¡± Hearing that there was a ten-draw lottery, Lin Tian immediately forgot about the nature of the system¡¯s mission and started to draw without hesitation. In the next second, a virtual screen that did not belong to the dynasty appeared before Lin Tian¡¯s eyes. On it was a circular plate filled with ancient characters. Following that, a white light flashed from the circular plate and instantly covered the entire virtual screen. Very quickly, the white light dispersed to reveal the icons of the ten items. [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred-year cultivation base!] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining ten Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining forty Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining forty Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining thirty Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining fifty Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a heaven-grade spirit herb: Spirit Jade!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten Spirit Stones!] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten Spirit Stones!] After the system finished the lottery, Lin Tian had no time to carefully examine the items he had obtained from the lottery when the system¡¯s notification sounded again. [Ding! Triggering the mission scene!] [Mission details: Help the young master of the Lin family, Lin Haoyu, get out of his predicament, and slap the woman in the face.] [Mission reward: Bronze ten-in-a-row lottery ticket!] ¡°A 100-year cultivation base?¡± ¡°This system lottery can actually draw cultivation!¡± Looking at the prizes on the virtual screen, Lin Tian could not help but be shocked. He could not help but sigh in his heart: ¡°Sixteen years. I transmigrated to this fantasy world for a whole sixteen years. I spent sixteen years peacefully.¡± ¡°Today, I finally awakened the golden finger that belongs to me. I will no longer be a little transparent.¡± The Humble Lin Tian did not dare say that he wanted to dominate the world. He had to set a small goal first. ¡°System, how do I receive the prize?¡± Lin Tian asked. [The prize that the host draws will be stored in the system¡¯s exclusive storage space. Click on the item in the storage space, and the host can directly use it.] Following the method taught by the system, Lin Tian silently chanted ¡°storage space¡± in his heart. The virtual screen instantly changed to the storage space panel. The storage space panel was filled with boxes, and there were three icons of the items in the boxes. They were [100-year cultivation base], [200 Spirit Stones], and [Spirit Jade]. [Spirit Jade: Heaven-grade spiritual herb. Consuming it can strengthen and repair one¡¯s foundation, and it can also increase the user¡¯s foundation by a certain amount.] In the first box on the first row was the icon of [100-year cultivation base], a ball of blue energy. Lin Tian joyfully reached out and clicked on the [hundred-year cultivation] icon. Lin Tian felt a surge of power surging into his body in the next second, slowly circulating in his body. The process was very comfortable. After a few breaths, Lin Tian clearly felt that his cultivation had broken through two small realms from the initial body strengthening stage and soared to the early stage of the Qi refining stage. This shocked Lin Tian greatly, and he was overjoyed. Lin Tian¡¯s sudden increase in cultivation caught Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s attention. It should be said that after Lin Tian awakened the system, Lin Yu¡¯er had already noticed that something was wrong with Lin Tian. Just now, when Lin Tian was communicating with the system and during the lottery draw and when he used his [hundred-year cultivation], he was communicating with the air. In Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s eyes, Lin Tian¡¯s expression alternated between anger, surprise, and pointing at the air. She suddenly felt that Lin Tian¡¯s aura seemed to have increased, becoming even stronger than hers. ¡°Lin Tian, What¡¯s wrong?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er had a puzzled look on her face. She thought that she was shaking Lin Tian slightly, but in fact, she was shaking him crazily. Lin Tian¡¯s head was almost shaken off by her. After being shaken by Lin Yu¡¯er, Lin Tian hurriedly withdrew his attention from the system. Lin Tian looked at Lin Yu¡¯er with an expressionless face. He reached out to pinch her little face and said indifferently, ¡°What are you doing?¡± ¡°Ah, it hurts, it hurts! Stop it quickly!¡± ¡°I saw that you suddenly looked strange. The aura on your body seemed to have become much stronger. I was just a little curious.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er shook off Lin Tian¡¯s hand and explained. After Lin Yu¡¯er mentioned it, Lin Tian noticed that his cultivation level had increased. He was only focused on enjoying the feeling and did not notice it. Then, he smiled happily and said, ¡°Hehe, this is a secret.¡± Lin Tian, who had read many novels in his previous life, knew very well that after a transmigrator awakened a cheat, he must not tell others this important rule. Then, Lin Tian turned his gaze to Lin Haoyu in the main hall. The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he said softly, ¡°Big Brother, let your little brother help you get back at him later.¡± After experiencing the effects of his [hundred years of cultivation], Lin Tian could only say, ¡°It smells so good!¡± Thus, he had already decided to break his oath and help Lin Haoyu. At this moment, in the Lin family¡¯s main hall, Lin Haoyu¡¯s face was gloomy. After hearing what Lin Xinran said, the dignity in his heart began to waver. Lin Haoyu used the corner of his eyes to glance at Lin Zhenshan. Seeing the worry in his father¡¯s eyes, he understood that his father had already worked a lot for him. He thought to himself, ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s time to end all of this.¡± Actually, when he heard that Liu Qing had come to the Lin family, Lin Haoyu had already planned to break off the engagement with him. However, Liu Qing¡¯s burning desire made Lin Haoyu unwilling to follow her thoughts. In the end, Lin Haoyu took out the marriage contract and prepared to go all out to make a decision. Seeing the marriage contract in Lin Haoyu¡¯s hand, a sinister smile appeared on Liu Qing¡¯s face, and she became complacent. ¡°It¡¯s okay to break off the engagement, but if you take your things away, I think it will dirty the Lin family.¡± Seeing Liu Qing¡¯s complacent look, Lin Haoyu¡¯s face turned gloomy as he said this. As he spoke, Lin Haoyu grabbed the marriage contract with both hands and planned to tear it up. ¡°Wait a minute, I have something to say!¡± Just as Lin Haoyu tore up the marriage contract, Lin Tian broke through the door and shouted loudly, attracting the gazes of everyone. Chapter 4 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Why did a collateral descendant like Lin Tian barge into the Lin family¡¯s main hall?¡± Lin Tian had been adopted by the Lin family since he was young. Usually, he would follow behind Lin Yu¡¯er and Lin Haoyu. Therefore, many elders and stewards of the Lin family recognized him. ¡°Lin Tian, you told me not to be rash. Why did you barge into the main hall on your own?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er saw Lin Tian suddenly run into the main hall. Afraid that he would cause any trouble inside, she hurriedly followed him and ran into the main hall. At this moment, the fifth elder of the Lin family stood up and berated him: ¡°Lin Tian, how dare you barge in here so casually without looking at this place?¡± After berating Lin Tian, he said to Lin Yu¡¯er, who was standing behind Lin Tian, ¡°Yu¡¯er, you¡¯re not young anymore. Even if you want to play, you have to look at the occasion. Hurry up and bring Lin Tian out.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er was at a loss as to responding to the fifth elder¡¯s accusation. Her body swayed left and right, not knowing how to react. At this moment, her heart was also on the verge of breaking down. It was clearly Lin Tian who barged into the Lin family¡¯s main hall. Why did it seem like he was saying that I brought him in? ¡°Lin Tian, why are you here?¡± Lin Haoyu asked. Lin Tian¡¯s sudden appearance made Lin Haoyu¡¯s tensed nerves relax a little. Lin Tian did not reply immediately. He first greeted Lin Zhentian. ¡°Lin Tian greets the master and the young master.¡± Then, he spread his hands and pretended to be indignant. He said, ¡°I really can¡¯t stand it anymore. That¡¯s why I came in to help you.¡± ¡°Help me?¡± Lin Haoyu was puzzled. He couldn¡¯t understand why Lin Tian, usually quiet, would say such a thing. ¡°It seems that the Lin family is really in decline. Any Tom, Dick, or Harry can just barge into the family¡¯s main hall.¡± Liu Qing looked at Lin Tian contemptuously and mocked him. Then, she urged Lin Haoyu. ¡°Lin Haoyu, why are you still in a daze? Quickly agree to break off the engagement.¡± Hearing Liu Qing¡¯s urging, Lin Haoyu¡¯s face once again became gloomy. ¡°Wait!¡± Lin Tian interrupted again. Then, ignoring Liu Qing¡¯s murderous gaze, he looked at Lin Zhenshan, who was in the position of the family head, and asked, ¡°Family head, I want to ask, did her family initiate the engagement between my big brother and this crazy woman?¡± ¡°You said it was a crazy woman!¡± Liu Qing said fiercely with a cold light. Lin Tian didn¡¯t even look at her, completely ignoring her. When he barged in, Lin Tian had asked Lin Yu¡¯er about Liu Qing¡¯s cultivation, and the answer he got was the advanced stage of the Qi refinement realm. Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation had reached the Qi refinement realm, so he wasn¡¯t afraid that Liu Qing could kill him instantly, so he wasn¡¯t scared of Liu Qing¡¯s threat. ¡°Yes, back then, the Liu family indeed suggested it.¡± At first, Lin Zhenshan was puzzled about how Lin Tian, a side sect disciple, would know about this. Then, he thought he should have learned about it from Lin Yu¡¯er, so he did not intend to probe further. After Lin Tian received confirmation, he immediately turned his head and pointed at Liu Qing, scolding angrily, ¡°Then you are really shameless. Back then, when you saw the Lin family¡¯s enormous power, you wanted to climb up to a higher position, so you licked your face and engaged with my big brother.¡± ¡°Now that the Lin family is declining, you want to break the agreement and kick the Lin family out, right?¡± ¡°You really are a whore after setting up a memorial arch.¡± After Lin Tian finished speaking, everyone present was instantly dumbfounded. ¡°This Lin Tian usually doesn¡¯t show his true colors. Who would have thought that he would really dare to say something!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t say. Lin Tian¡¯s mouth is really good. He speaks one set of words after another.¡± Some of the Lin family members familiar with Lin Tian looked surprised as they discussed among themselves. ¡°This Lin Tian is too fierce. Why don¡¯t we quickly take him away? If we continue to scold him like this, I¡¯m afraid it will cause trouble for Miss Liu Qing.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. The Lin family and the Liu family are no longer the same as before. If we don¡¯t Stop Lin Tian now, I¡¯m afraid that something big will happen to the Lin family in the future!¡± Some of the Lin family members who were not familiar with Lin Tian looked worried and wanted to stop Lin Tian. They were worried that if he continued to scold Lin Tian like this, he would cause big trouble. ¡°Where did this idiot come from?¡± At this moment, Lin Tian was just a fool in Lin Xinran¡¯s eyes. His expression was as if he was watching a show. The more chaotic the situation was, the better it would be. It would be more advantageous for their branch to seize power. After Lin Zhishan heard Lin Tian¡¯s words, he looked at Lin Tian strangely. He couldn¡¯t help but think to himself, ¡°This Lin Tian is usually very obedient, but he can actually say these words today. It¡¯s astonishing.¡± ¡°Lin Tian, thank you very much for speaking up for me.¡± Lin Haoran¡¯s eyes widened, and a faint smile appeared. Lin Haoran didn¡¯t expect that when he was in such a difficult situation, it would be Lin Tian who would speak up for him. On the other side, Liu Qing was stunned when she heard Lin Tian¡¯s words and did not react. Liu Qing¡¯s face was livid at Lin Tian¡¯s anger the next second. The anger in her heart rose, and the aura on her body also rose. From a young age, Liu Qing displayed terrific intelligence. She could see everything and remember everything. After coming into contact with cultivation, she displayed fantastic talent. She reached the advanced stage of the body strengthening stage in the first year of cultivation and was hailed as the favored daughter of the heavens. Now that she had come to the Lin family, she was actually called a whore by Lin Tian. Liu Qing had never been humiliated like this before. She immediately raised her hand and wanted to attack Lin Tian. ¡°Stop!¡± Lin Zhenshan shouted sternly. At the same time, the aura around his body suddenly increased explosively. Waves of air swept across the entire Lin family¡¯s main hall. ¡°Even if the Lin family has already declined, the Lin family still exists. It¡¯s not your turn to help teach the Lin family disciples a lesson.¡± ¡°Furthermore, Lin Tian¡¯s words are not wrong. This engagement was initiated by Your Liu family. It¡¯s unreasonable for you, Liu Qing, to come to the Lin family to break the engagement.¡± ¡°I believe that your elders can not afford to lose face. That¡¯s why they let you come to the Lin family alone.¡± Upon hearing this, Liu Qing¡¯s anger rose. She naturally understood that the Liu family was at fault for breaking the engagement. However, as the favored daughter of the heavens, how could she tolerate her future husband being a good-for-nothing who could not cultivate. ¡°Today, I came to the Lin family as Liu Qing, a Qing Heng Sacred Sect disciple. I¡¯m not the daughter of the Liu family.¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to cancel this engagement no matter what. See how the Lin family resolves this yourself?¡± The moment the ¡®Green Hengsheng sect appeared, the elders of the Lin family were instantly shocked. Even Lin Zhenshan, who had been shouting loudly just now, could not help but withdraw his aura, his face turning solemn. The atmosphere at the scene instantly turned extremely cold. However, Lin Tian did not care which sect disciple you were from. At that moment, the system¡¯s task in his heart was the greatest. He immediately stood in front of Liu Qing and thundered, ¡°The river flows east for thirty years, and the river flows west for thirty years. Don¡¯t you bully poor young people!¡± ¡°Today, I will speak on behalf of big brother. It is impossible to break off the engagement. Only brother can only divorce his wife. If you are dissatisfied, come at me!¡± Chapter 5 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Good brother, I have not taken care of you for nothing in the past. If anything happens, you really have to do it.¡± After Lin Haoyu heard Lin Tian¡¯s words, he was almost moved to tears. On the other side, when Liu Qing heard Lin Tian¡¯s ridicule, she was anxious and angry. Because of Lin Zhenshan¡¯s strength suppression, she would definitely be at a disadvantage if she made a move now. She could only endure this resentment. After some thought, Liu Qing suppressed her emotions and took out the green jade green heart fruit again, intending to persuade him with words. ¡°Lin Hao, are you sure you won¡¯t consider breaking off my engagement? As long as you are willing to accept my breaking off the engagement, I will give you this green jade green heart fruit.¡± ¡°You have to think carefully. This green jade green heart fruit can repair your foundation, allowing you to once again step onto the path of cultivation.¡± ¡°Although you are still not worthy of me after your cultivation, your life should be better than now. You might even have the chance to become your father¡¯s successor and become the head of the Lin family.¡± This time, Liu Qing¡¯s tone was gentler and was no longer as aggressive as before. He was against Liu Qing¡¯s Green jade green heart fruit because Liu Qing¡¯s attitude just now was too challenging to accept. Liu Qing¡¯s words made Lin Haoyu hesitate again. After all, what Liu Qing said was right. As long as he recovered his strength, he would not be looked down upon by others. Lin Tian saw that Liu Qing had managed to regain his momentum after much difficulty. Naturally, he would not agree to it. ¡°You have the nerve to take out trash like this?¡± Lin Tian looked at the green jade heart fruit with disdain and chuckled softly. As he spoke, he took out a piece of irregular transparent white jade the size of a palm. For a moment, rich spiritual energy filled the entire Lin family main hall. ¡°Isn¡¯t this¡­ isn¡¯t this the heaven rank spiritual medicine, Jade Spirit Marrow?¡± At this moment, some of the elders in the Lin family main hall were all in shock. Their eyes widened in disbelief. This was because they recognized that the irregular white jade in Lin Tian¡¯s hand was jade spirit marrow, a spiritual medicine. When the Lin family guards declined, they had seen jade spirit marrow in the family treasury. However, the Jade Spirit Marrow was a heaven-grade spiritual medicine, very rare even when the Lin family¡¯s Wei city was in decline. These Lin family elders did not expect that Lin Tian, as a member of the side family, could actually take out a jade spirit marrow. Then, Lin Tiancheng took out a piece of jade spirit marrow and gave it to Lin Haoyu under everyone¡¯s watchful eyes, causing everyone present to gasp in amazement. ¡°I remember that apart from being able to repair one¡¯s foundation, this jade spirit marrow can also improve a cultivator¡¯s foundation.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. If Lin Tian were to eat this piece of jade spirit marrow, his cultivation aptitude would definitely improve. Still, he actually gave it to the young master so generously.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Lin Tian to be so loyal and sincere to Lin Haoyu.¡± Lin Haoyu stared blankly at Lin Tian. His mouth opened slightly, but he didn¡¯t know what to say. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said something. ¡°Lin Tian, I¡¯m really grateful to you!¡± Lin Haoyu didn¡¯t dare to believe Lin Tian¡¯s actions. His heart was even more moved as he thought to himself, ¡°Lin Tian is really a brother!¡± Liu Qing, standing at the side, was also shocked when she saw the jade spirit marrow that Lin Tian had taken out. For a moment, the pride on her face was gone. What replaced it was confusion, helplessness, and shock. ¡°What is the background of this person?¡± ¡°He actually took out a heaven-grade numinous treasure. When he gave it to Lin Haoyu, he did not even blink his eyes!¡± She came to break off the engagement today because was always wrong. Even the Numinous Treasure used to compensate Lin Haoyu was less than the others. Therefore, Liu Qing immediately felt ashamed. The entire situation in the Lin family¡¯s main hall instantly turned around. At this moment, Liu Qing no longer had any means to force Lin Haoyu to agree to break off the engagement. In the end, she could only stare at Lin Tian, her gaze as vicious as a poisonous snake. Lin Tian did not care about Liu Qing¡¯s gaze at all. The angrier the other party was, the happier Lin Tian was. Because this meant that the other party was at her wit¡¯s end. The angrier she was, the more effective the face-slapping effect would be. ¡°I, Lin Haoyu, will not marry a vain woman like you. Today, I have decided to divorce you. Please get out of the Lin family immediately.¡± Having obtained the Jade Spirit Marrow, Lin Haoyu instantly felt confident. He threw the marriage contract at Liu Qing¡¯s face and shouted sternly. Lin Haoyu had been suppressing his emotions ever since Liu Qing had announced that she was withdrawing from the marriage. He was unable to release it. When he threw the marriage contract at Liu Qing, the pressure in his heart was finally released. His heart instantly felt much better, and a smile appeared on his face. Lin Haoyu was feeling better now, but Liu Qing, who was opposite him, was much angrier. ¡°You¡­¡± Liu Qing clenched the marriage contract tightly and pointed at Lin Haoyu in exasperation, but she couldn¡¯t say anything. Although she had already gotten what she wanted initially, she was still holding back the anger in her heart. She was a proud daughter of the heavens, but she was actually broken off from the marriage by a good-for-nothing. If word got out, it would be worse than marrying a good-for-nothing like Lin Haoyu. How could she swallow the resentment in her heart? Following that, Liu Qing turned her gaze to Lin Tian. Her face was filled with anger as she said fiercely, ¡°Your name is Lin Tian, right? ¡°I will remember you. Just you wait.¡± ¡°After today¡¯s humiliation, I will definitely return it to the Lin family, especially you, Lin Tian.¡± After saying that, Liu Qing led her men and left in a sorry state. When most of the Lin family members in the Lin Family Hall saw Liu Qing leave in a sorry state, they could not help but smile. Some of them could not help but laugh out loud, making Liu Qing even angrier. However, some members of the Lin family did not want to see this result, such as Lin Xinran. After seeing that Lin Haoyu had obtained the jade spirit marrow, Lin Xinran could not help but feel worried. She was afraid that after Lin Haoyu recovered his foundation, it would be even more difficult for her Lin family branch to fight for the Lin family¡¯s sovereignty. ¡°Now that a proud daughter of the heavens has her eyes on me, it seems like this mission won¡¯t Be So Easy!¡± Looking at Liu Qing¡¯s disappearing figure, Lin Tian secretly ridiculed in his heart. [Ding! The host has helped the Lin family¡¯s young master, Lin Haoyu, out of his predicament and successfully slapped Liu Qing, who came to break off the engagement. The mission is determined to be completed.] Ten bronze lottery tickets have been distributed to the storage space. You can view and use it at any time.] ¡°The system is pretty effecient.¡± Hearing the notification of the completion of the mission, Lin Tian was immediately delighted. He was already guessing what good things he would get from the lucky draw. Chapter 6 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation After hearing the notification of the completion of the mission, Lin Tian bowed slightly to Lin Zhenshan, who was sitting on the family head seat, and said in a hurried tone, ¡°Family head, I still have some matters to attend to, so I won¡¯t continue to disturb your meeting.¡± ¡°Well, since you have other urgent matters to attend to, you can do your work first.¡± Initially, Lin Zhishan wanted to ask Lin Tian where this jade spirit jade had come from and thank him for defeating Liu Qing¡¯s spirit. However, seeing that he wanted to leave now, he could not force him to stay. After obtaining Lin Zhishan¡¯s permission, Lin Tian immediately turned around and walked out of the Lin family¡¯s main hall. He had always wanted to return to his room as soon as possible and continue using the bronze ten consecutive lottery ticket. ¡°Lin Tian, Wait for me.¡± Seeing that Lin Tian had left, Lin Yu¡¯er followed him. After all, there was no use for her to stay in the Lin family¡¯s main hall. At night, Lin Tian dragged his heavy body back into his room. It was more like a woodshed. When he pushed open the door and entered, he saw that both sides were lined with long, neatly stacked logs and chopped firewood. Lin Tian did not work for nothing in the Lin family. Chopping firewood was his daily work. At the end of the room, there was a one-meter wide wooden board. That was Lin Tian¡¯s bed. ¡°That girl, Lin Yu¡¯er, really has a lot of problems. I¡¯ve finally gotten rid of her.¡± Lin Tian sat on the wooden board bed and made a creaking sound. Then, he complained. It turned out that after leaving the Lin family¡¯s main hall, Lin Yu¡¯er had been following Lin Tian to ask about the origin of the Jade Spirit Jade. And how could she be so brave all of a sudden? She dared to barge into the Lin family¡¯s main hall to reprimand Liu Qing and support Lin Haoyu. As for the system that had just awakened, Lin Tian naturally could not tell Lin Yu¡¯er about it. He could only randomly make up a story. But as the saying went, one lie would need more lies to cover it. Today, Lin Tian deeply understood the meaning of this sentence. He racked his brain to think of many stories before he managed to fool Lin Yu¡¯er. In fact, if it wasn¡¯t for such a melodramatic system, why would lin Tian do such a thing today? When Lin Tian returned to his senses, the sky had already darkened. It was already nighttime. After sitting on the bed for a while, Lin Tian went to the door and peeked out. He looked around to see if anyone had passed by. After making sure that no one was around, Lin Tian closed the door again. In his heart, he silently chanted the system to come out. Because it was his first time awakening the system, he ignored his behavior, which caused Lin Yu¡¯er to be suspicious. Therefore, Lin Tian didn¡¯t want to be seen by others in this lucky draw. He didn¡¯t want to waste his energy explaining it to others. As he chanted in his heart, the virtual screen appeared again in front of Lin Tian. Lin Tian was pleasantly surprised at the virtual screen floating in the air. His heartbeat couldn¡¯t help but quicken. Opening the system¡¯s storage space, a bronze lottery ticket lay quietly in the first box. Next to it was the icon of 200 spirit stones. Lin Tian didn¡¯t plan to pay attention to it for the time being. That was because the lottery was the most important thing at the moment. ¡°The first lottery helped me breakthrough to the aura refining realm. I wonder what good things will the lottery bring me this time?¡± Lin Tian opened the bronze lottery ticket expectantly, and a burst of white light flashed on the virtual screen. After the white light disappeared, the item icons appeared one by one. [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a heaven-rank cultivation technique¡ªheaven and earth sacred technique] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining 30 Spirit Stones] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a 100-year cultivation base] [Congratulations, host, for receiving 60 Spirit Stones] [Congratulations, host, for getting a heaven-rank martial skill¡ªHeavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist] [Congratulations, host, for receiving a 100-year cultivation base] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining 30 Spirit Stones] [Congratulations to host for obtaining 100 years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining 40 Spirit Stones] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining 40 Spirit Stones] ¡°D*mn! A sky-high price cultivation method and a heaven-rank martial skill! ¡°This system really is not bad. It¡¯s like sending me charcoal in a snowstorm!¡± Lin Tian looked at the lottery rewards on the virtual screen with a face full of pleasant surprise, and his heart couldn¡¯t help but be excited once again. ¡°I was just thinking about where to get cultivation techniques and secret manuals, but I didn¡¯t expect this lottery to solve my problem in one go.¡± In this fantasy world, one only had cultivation talent in the early stages, and high cultivation didn¡¯t have much combat power. A high-grade cultivation technique could increase your cultivation speed and increase the control of your spiritual power and the strength of the spiritual power in your Dantian. A good cultivation technique book could turn one¡¯s spiritual power into a powerful attack method. However, as a disciple of the Lin family¡¯s side branch, if Lin Tian did not make any significant contributions to the Lin family, he would not have had the opportunity to enter the Lin family¡¯s scripture depository and come into contact with those cultivation techniques and cultivation technique books. .. However, the ten consecutive draws this time solved the problem of Lin Tian¡¯s lack of cultivation techniques and cultivation technique books, making up for the gap in his cultivation. ¡°This time, besides cultivating cultivation techniques and secret manuals, I drew another 300 years of cultivation. My luck is excellent.¡± Lin Tian muttered to himself excitedly. ¡°I wonder what kind of realm my cultivation will reach with these 300 years of cultivation?¡± He had already opened up all of his 300 years of cultivation as he spoke, and warm energy suddenly surged into his body. Very quickly, Lin Tian felt that the spiritual energy in his Dantian was growing and changing. From the first few strands of spiritual energy, it increased to dozens of strands, then to hundreds of strands, continuously increasing. Crack! Crackle! Kacha! Under the impact of the 300 years of cultivation, Lin Tian let out the sound of bones and tendons ringing together. Accompanied by a series of crisp sounds, Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation broke through to the advanced stage of the Qi refinement realm. The spiritual energy in his Dantian also reached more than 9,000 strands. ¡°Phew!¡± Two hours later, the digestion of his three hundred years of cultivation had ended, and Lin Tian let out a breath of turbid air. After the breakthrough, he carefully sensed the realm and felt that his entire body had become much more relaxed. However, the power in his body was becoming more and more terrifying. ¡°I wonder how much stronger I am now?¡± Lin Tian looked around the room and murmured softly. The wood on the wall had attracted his attention. Then, he came to a row of long logs, his right hand holding the woodcutter he usually used to chop wood. Then, he took out the long top log and threw it into the air. The woodcutter in his right hand quickly hacked at the log. A shadow flashed across the air quickly, but the long log did not change. ¡°Can¡¯t Hack it open?¡± Lin Tian complained softly. The long piece of wood fell to the ground and was instantly split into two halves in the next second. ¡°So it¡¯s because my blade is too fast. This piece of wood hasn¡¯t reacted yet,¡± Lin Tian said in surprise. After experiencing the strength of the advanced stage of the refinement realm, Lin Tian turned his attention to the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique¡± and the ¡°Heavenly Tiger collapsing fist¡± at the back. Chapter 7 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation [Heaven-rank cultivation technique¡ªheaven and earth sacred technique: by using supreme power to train one¡¯s spiritual power, the strength of the cultivator¡¯s spiritual power will be far higher than that of a cultivator of the same realm.] [Do you want to learn the heaven and earth sacred technique?] ¡°Yes.¡± Lin Tian first took out the heaven-rank cultivation technique¡ªthe heaven and earth sacred technique. He planned to cultivate the cultivation technique first before practicing the techniques and martial techniques. Then, after Lin Tian confirmed his reply, an unfamiliar yet familiar memory flooded into his mind. A series of obscure and mysterious cultivation techniques appeared in his mind. As the cultivation technique was passed down, Lin Tian could not help but mutter the cultivation technique softly. Moreover, the spiritual energy in his Dantian started to circulate automatically simultaneously. It slowly flowed through his body¡¯s meridians and disseminated according to a certain pattern. The aura on Lin Tian¡¯s body also slowly changed, and his aura continued to increase. The surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be pulled by a certain force, turning into spiritual mist that gathered around Lin Tian and seeped into his body. After cultivating the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique¡± for a while, the 9,000 strands of spiritual energy in Lin Tian¡¯s Dantian gradually converged and merged, squeezing into an even stronger spiritual energy. During the entire process of refining the spiritual energy, Lin Tian felt extremely smooth, and unknowingly, he started to cultivate in a daze. After another two hours, the spiritual energy in Lin Tian¡¯s Dantian had almost converged and merged. The 9,000 strands of spiritual energy were squeezed into 3,000 strands, refining two-thirds of it. However, Lin Tian felt that his strength was much more muscular after refining the spiritual energy than before. ¡°Refining the spiritual power and making it purer and more solid, is this the effect of the ¡®Heaven and Earth Sacred Technique¡¯?¡± Carefully sensing the surging power coming from his body, Lin Tian exclaimed joyfully. It was a pity that there were no other cultivators to guide him. Otherwise, he would know the extent of his true strength. However, Lin Tian guessed that he should be able to easily crush the other party when facing a cultivator of the same realm. After realizing that he could not refine the remaining spiritual energy, Lin Tian shifted his attention to another cultivation technique, the heavenly tiger collapsing fist. [Heaven rank martial skill¡ªHeavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist: A set of fist martial skills that was comprehended by observing the heavenly tiger¡¯s battle prowess¡­ Those gifted with exceptional talent will reveal the Heavenly Tiger¡¯s divine aspect in each of their moves, intimidating the powerful enemies in all directions.] ¡°This martial skill has the heavenly tiger divine aspect. How powerful is this?¡± Looking at the information about the ¡®Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist,¡¯ Lin Tian¡¯s eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light, and his expression was shocked. Which man would refuse the appearance of a super cool Heavenly Tiger Divine Aspect when releasing his martial skills? Lin Tian couldn¡¯t wait to receive the memory inheritance of the ¡®Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist.¡¯ Like the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique,¡± an unfamiliar memory appeared again in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. The difference between the two martial arts inheritance was that in the memory inheritance of the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist,¡± Lin Tian seemed to be standing in front of a huge heavenly tiger, watching every move of the Heavenly Tiger. Soon, the inheritance of the ¡°Heavenly tiger collapsing fist¡± ended. Lin Tian recalled the memory inheritance just now, followed the feeling, and started to practice the ¡°Heavenly Tiger collapsing fist.¡± At this moment, Lin Tian seemed to have entered a state. His eyes were lifeless, but there seemed to be a figure dancing in his eyes, which was exactly the same as Lin Tian¡¯s movements. For a moment, it was unknown whether Lin Tian was learning from the figure in his eyes or the figure in his eyes was following Lin Tian¡¯s movements. As he practiced the ¡°Heavenly Tiger collapsing fist,¡± Lin Tian¡¯s movements gradually sped up, and he faintly emitted an aura. That imposing aura slowly formed the outline of a mighty and domineering Heavenly Tiger. Lin Tian did not know that although his talent in cultivation was extremely poor, his comprehension ability was terrifying. The divine power aspect of a heaven-rank martial skill had already entered the rudiments on the first practice, and he had even comprehended its essence, conjuring the divine power aspect of the Heavenly Tiger. This level of comprehension ability was far beyond Liu Qing and Lin Haoyu from before. At this moment, Lin Tian¡¯s Aura had reached a peak, but he didn¡¯t know that he had been immersed in cultivation. Lin Tian swung a straight fist in the next second, and a trace of aura broke free from his suppression and leaked out, instantly stirring up all the firewood in the woodshed. ¡°What the hell?¡± Lin Tian was shocked and recovered from his state of immersion. Seeing the messy firewood in front of him, he didn¡¯t hurry to tidy it up. Instead, he ran to the door to check. ¡°Fortunately, no one is nearby.¡± Seeing that it was quiet outside the door, Lin Tian patted his chest and let out a sigh of relief. At this time, Lin Tian hadn¡¯t thought about how to explain the ¡°Fortuitous encounter¡± he had obtained. He didn¡¯t want to be captured by the Lin family and hung for interrogation. After noticing that no one was around, Lin Tian closed the door. He obediently picked up the scattered firewood on the ground. ¡°Today is really a good day¡­¡± Lin Tian, who had learned both martial arts and martial arts, was in an excellent mood. He hummed a little song from his previous life when he squatted down to pick up the firewood. After piling up the firewood again, Lin Tian ended his day of cultivation and went to bed to sleep. The next morning. Knock! Knock! Knock! Lin Tian, who was sound asleep, vaguely heard someone knocking on the door. Lin Tian rubbed his sleepy eyes and slowly walked to the door. Creak! ¡°Uncle, is there no firewood again!¡± Lin Tian stuck his head out as the old wooden door slightly creaked. He realized that the person who came was not the kitchen servant who wanted the firewood, but the little princess of the Lin family, Lin Yu¡¯er. ¡°Lin Tian, your actions yesterday were really amazing. The entire family did not dare to make a sound, and only you dared to stand up and refute.¡± After seeing Lin Tian, Lin Yu¡¯er started chattering excitedly. ¡°Moreover, you made that Liu Qing speechless. It¡¯s really gratifying.¡± ¡°After leaving the main hall yesterday, you kept saying that. Aren¡¯t you tired of it?¡± Looking at the excited Lin Yu¡¯er, Lin Tian¡¯s heart did not waver at all. This was because Lin Yu¡¯er had repeated this sentence countless times. Lin Tian¡¯s original intention was not to help Lin Haoyu, but to complete the system¡¯s mission. In fact, Lin Tian did not want to be the first to stand out. ¡°Why did you come looking for me today?¡± Lin Tian asked. Although Lin Yu¡¯er had a good relationship with him, she was the youngest daughter of the Lin family head. It was already good enough that she occasionally looked for him for a chat. ¡°I almost forgot what I was doing.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er patted her head and said. ¡°My father is looking for you. He wants you to go to the family meeting hall now.¡± Hearing that Lin Zhenshan was looking for him, Lin Tianxin thought, ¡°Could it be that my performance yesterday was too stunning and moved him?¡± Then Lin Tian simply washed up and followed Lin Yu¡¯er to the family meeting hall without much thought. ¡°Look over there. Lin Tianchao is walking over here.¡± ¡°Lin Tian? is he the person who saved the young master¡¯s reputation?¡± ¡°Yes, that¡¯s right, it¡¯s that Lin Tian.¡± On the way, when the Lin family disciples saw Lin Tian, they all whispered to one another, their eyes filled with admiration. Lin Tian felt very strange after hearing this. He was really just doing this to complete the system¡¯s mission! Chapter 8 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Just as Lin Tian followed Lin Yu¡¯er to the Lin family¡¯s meeting hall, inside the Lin family¡¯s meeting hall. In front of a large oval table sat many vital figures of the Lin family. Among them, Lin Zhenshan sat at the innermost seat of the family head position. On Lin Zhenshan¡¯s right was the young master of the Lin family, Lin Haoyu. On his left was Lin Zhenshan¡¯s younger brother, Lin Zhenhai. If Lin Tian had come to the scene, he would have realized that everyone in the family meeting hall had been seen in the Lin family hall yesterday. Strangely, there was an empty seat beside Lin Haoyu, and the rest of the chairs were filled with people. ¡°When we broke off the engagement with Liu Qing yesterday, it was very satisfying, and we vented our anger. However, have you considered the consequences of angering Liu Qing?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. You have to know that the Liu family behind Liu Qing is not the small family from back then. After offending them this time, I¡¯m afraid that our Lin family will receive an unprecedented blow.¡± At this moment, the Lin family¡¯s meeting hall discussed the consequences of offending Liu Qing yesterday. After Liu Qing¡¯s Liu family received the Lin family¡¯s help back then, they took the opportunity to climb up the Lin family¡¯s high branch with the engagement of their descendants. With the help of the Lin family¡¯s influence, the Liu family rapidly developed and became one of the top families in the Qing Xuan continent today. As the Lin family was suppressed by powerful enemies, the situation was the opposite of the rising Liu family. They gradually declined and moved to the border town of Jade Lotus town. If the Liu family wanted to mess with the Lin family now, the Lin family would not be able to withstand the blow of the Liu family at all. ¡°Yesterday, you should have advised Haoyu to accept Miss Liu Qing¡¯s annulment. This way, not only would you be able to avoid the hostility of a powerful enemy family, but you would also be able to obtain a green jade heart fruit.¡± An elder who was not present yesterday said. ¡°That¡¯s right. Doesn¡¯t everyone know what our Lin family has become?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Do some people still think that our Lin family is still the same Lin family that once dominated a region?¡± ¡°If we can¡¯t even give up this bit of dignity, I think that becoming the head of the Lin family in the future will only bring disaster to the Lin family.¡± For a moment, a few elders of the Lin family criticized Lin Haoyu¡¯s actions yesterday. In response, Lin Haoyu sat quietly on the chair and did not say anything. He did not say anything to refute these elders of the Lin family. This was because the declining Lin family was not so united. The Lin family was divided into three factions. The head of the Lin family, Lin Zhenshan, was one faction, Lin Zhenhai was one faction, and there were neutral factions on both sides who did not take sides. Lin Haoyu understood that the elders who criticized him this time were all on his second uncle¡¯s side. Now, he hoped that he would lose his temper in anger. This way, they would have a chance to strip him of his position as the young master and then pull his father, Lin Zhenshan, down from his position as the head of the family. Therefore, he had to endure it now to not expose his weakness. Faced with the burning pressure from Lin Zhenhai¡¯s bloodline, the elders on Lin Zhenshan¡¯s side immediately stood up and explained: ¡°The matter of Liu Qing breaking off the engagement is also private to her. Moreover, after a night, she hasn¡¯t seen anyone discuss it outside. I think this matter hasn¡¯t been spread out yet.¡± ¡°I think so too. Liu Qing has always been called the favored daughter of the heavens. Her marriage with Haoyu should only be known by the Lin and Liu families. I think she would be too embarrassed to let others know that the favored daughter of the heavens once had a fianc¨¦.¡± ¡°Moreover, in our Lin family, the Liu family would not have the face to directly attack us. However, they would definitely not be able to avoid some small obstacles.¡± ¡°Everyone, quieten down¡±!¡± Just as Lin Zhenshan¡¯s faction and Li Zhenhai¡¯s faction were arguing non-stop, the neutral faction¡¯s fifth elder of the Lin family, who had been silent the whole time, said ¡°I¡¯ve received news that the Liu family¡¯s little girl went to the Li family before she left Jade Lotus town yesterday. ¡± ¡°And she went to visit the Li family in the name of the Liu family.¡± As soon as he said this, the people of the two factions immediately quieted down. Their faces were full of shock and fear. No matter how much internal strife the two sides had, when the Lin family encountered a crisis, they still had a sense of propriety. The Li family that Liu Qing visited was an enemy family of the Lin family, a competitor in business. Liu Qing knew that her Liu family was unreasonable, so she was embarrassed to directly use the Li family¡¯s influence to destroy the Lin family. Thus, she used the name of the family to visit the Li family, intending to use their hand to eradicate the Lin family ¡± ¡°This Liu Qing is really a good scheme! She actually thought of using the hands of others to kill someone. ¡± ¡°If I had known earlier, the Lin family wouldn¡¯t have saved the Liu family back then. F*cking great, now that we¡¯ve saved an ingrate.¡± Some of the hot-tempered elders directly cursed. When the head of the Lin family, Lin Zhenshan, heard this news, his brows were tightly knitted. His face was gloomy as he sat silently on the chair, thinking of something. For a moment, the atmosphere in the Li family¡¯s meeting hall was gloomy. At this moment, Lin Yu¡¯er pushed open the door of the meeting hall, and Lin Tian followed behind her. The people of the Lin family, who had lowered their heads to think, instantly cast their gazes on Lin Tian. Looking at the lifeless meeting hall, Lin Tian raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately felt a trace of unease. He thought to himself ¡± ¡°Did something happen again?¡± ¡°Lin Tian, come in and sit beside me.¡± Seeing that Lin Tian had arrived, Li Haoyu¡¯s depressed expression disappeared. He immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Tian slowly walked to the empty chair beside Lin Haoyu and sat down ¡± ¡°Lin Tian, thank you very much for helping Haoyu and the Lin family out yesterday.¡± Lin Zhenshan looked at Lin Tian and said with a faint smile ¡± ¡°The young master is my good big brother. He treats me well. ¡± ¡°Therefore, how can I watch the young master being humiliated by that woman?¡± Hearing Lin Zhenshan suddenly talk to him, Lin Tian stood up and said righteously, ¡°When I found that Jade Spirit Jade on the mountain, the first thing I thought of was to give it to the young master. ¡± ¡°I believe that with this Jade Spirit Jade, the young master will definitely be able to restore his foundation. When that time comes, he will definitely be able to restore the glory of the family! ¡± ¡°Alright!¡± Upon Lin Tian¡¯s generous speech, the elders below could not help but feel their blood boiling. They could not help but exclaim in surprise. The atmosphere in the Lin family meeting hall was immediately stirred up by Lin Tian. Under such a lively atmosphere, the elders of the Lin family also overlooked how Lin Tian came to know about the small issue of the Jade Spirit Jade. Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s speech, Lin Haoyu was the most touched among the people present. If it were not for the fact that he and Lin Tian were both men, Lin Haoyu would even have thought of giving his body to someone else. At the same time, if Lin Tian had the ability to read the minds of others, he would discover that Lin Haoyu beside him was communicating with the minds of others ¡± ¡°See, this is my good brother. He is not as shrewd as you think.¡± ¡°Humph, he is alright, but I still have to warn you that you must be wary of others. Don¡¯t regret it when you are about to die.¡± It turned out that Lin Haoyu was communicating telepathically with the soul of this powerhouse who was residing on his ring. Chapter 9 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Why would I say something like that on a whim?¡± Lin Tian muttered to himself unhappily as he walked into the courtyard of the Lin family. At this moment, Lin Tian was holding an embroidered purse with a hundred taels of gold in it. This was the reward given to him by the head of the Lin family. It would definitely be a vast sum of money for Lin Tian if this was before. However, after getting 400 spirit stones from the help system, this 100 taels of gold was just a tiny amount of money. According to the exchange rate of this fantasy world, one spirit stone could be exchanged for 100 taels of gold. In other words, Lin Tian now had 40,000 taels of gold on him. And the Jade Spirit Jade that Lin Tian gave to Lin Haoyu was even more priceless. ¡°Why don¡¯t you take back the Jade Spirit Jade?¡± ¡°I¡¯m such an idiot.¡± Lin Tian complained again, but there was nothing he could do. After all, the other party¡¯s strength was there, and he couldn¡¯t compete with the other party. Fortunately, he had a system that could draw a lottery to comfort him. Otherwise, exchanging a hundred taels of gold for a jade Spirit Jade would really be a loss. ¡°Hey, Lin Tian, what are you thinking about this time?¡± Just as Lin Tian felt a little depressed, a crisp voice came from behind. Lin Tian heard the voice and guessed that it was Lin Yu¡¯er. He said in a strange tone, ¡°I¡¯m thinking about how to spend the hundred taels of gold that your father gave me.¡± ¡°Hehe, that¡¯s easy to do. You just need to go shopping with me in the city.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er giggled when she heard about spending money. ¡°I refuse to go shopping with you. I think you have your eyes on my wallet.¡± Lin Tian rolled his eyes at Lin Yu¡¯er. He hid the embroidered purse behind his back to avoid Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s gaze as he spoke. However, this was not why Lin Tian rejected Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s request to go shopping. He wanted to go back and continue cultivating the ¡°Heaven and Earth Sacred Technique¡± and the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er, beside him, was displeased when she heard Lin Tian¡¯s words. She pursed her lips and snorted lightly: ¡°You¡¯re so good, Lin Tian. I¡¯ve helped you so many times in the past. Now, you¡¯re not even willing to accompany me to go shopping with such a small request.¡± Lin Tian thought about it. When he entered the Lin family previously, Lin Yu¡¯er had indeed helped him a lot. ¡°Alright then, I¡¯ll accompany you to visit Jade Lotus town today.¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go quickly. Otherwise, it¡¯ll be dark soon.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er said happily and pulled Lin Tian out of the house. ¡°Are you sure it¡¯s going to be dark soon?¡± Lin Tian covered his eyes with his left hand and raised his head to look at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky. He said expressionlessly. As one of the three big families in Jade Lotus town, the Lin family¡¯s courtyard would definitely not be located in the corner of Jade Lotus town. Therefore, after Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er walked out of the Lin family¡¯s gate, they quickly arrived at the most prosperous street in Jade Lotus town: Chang Rong Street. On both sides of the street, shops and restaurants are lined with banners and trademarks of shops. On the way, there were many stalls and hawkers on the street, shouting loudly at the passers-by. ¡°Chang Rong Street is still bustling with so many people.¡± Lin Tian looked at the bustling street and said lightly. ¡°But it¡¯s precisely because of the crowd that I don¡¯t want to go shopping.¡± However, Lin Yu¡¯er, traveling with him, overlooked Lin Tian¡¯s complaint. Instead, she looked at Chang Rong Street with excitement. ¡°This ice-sugar gourd looks so delicious!¡± ¡°Wow, Lin Tian, come quickly. This little sugar figurine is so interesting. The Boss said that it can be eaten.¡± ¡°Lin Tian, smell this osmanthus cake. It smells so sweet!¡± ¡°Lin Tian¡­¡± Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s eyes lit up when she arrived at the Jade Lotus town. She had already run to a few stalls selling snacks like a little rabbit. The most important thing was that every time Lin Yu¡¯er picked up a snack, she would immediately change to another stall, leaving Lin Tian behind to pay for her. ¡°To think that you are the eldest daughter of the Lin family. Why do you still have me, a poor child, to pay for it?¡± Lin Tian grumbled as he took out the money to settle the bill. However, Lin Tian was just saying that. He actually did not feel unhappy about paying for Lin Yu¡¯er from behind. After all, when Lin Tian was unhappy in the Lin family, Lin Yu¡¯er brought him delicious food many times to let him live through those days. The sun was high in the sky, and it was noon. ¡°Lin Tian, I can¡¯t walk anymore. Let¡¯s find an inn to rest.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er said tiredly. Lin Tian carried big and small bags as he slowly followed behind Lin Yu¡¯er. His face was filled with helplessness. At this moment, Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er had basically walked through all the delicious and fun streets in Yulian town. Moreover, they did not stop midway. They had been shopping all this while and had been buying nonstop. It was usual for Lin Yu¡¯er to be tired from shopping now. After hearing Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s words, Lin Tian immediately ridiculed, ¡°Why don¡¯t you see how much food you¡¯ve eaten and how long you¡¯ve walked?¡± As he spoke, Lin Tian looked around for an inn to rest. After a while, he saw a canvas with the word ¡°tea¡± hanging in the air at a corner not far away. ¡°Hang in there. There¡¯s a teahouse up ahead. We can rest soon.¡± Hearing that there was a teahouse ahead for them to rest, Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s listless eyes lit up again, and she regained her spirit. ¡°Then what are we waiting for? Let¡¯s hurry over.¡± After saying that, Lin Yu¡¯er walked quickly to the teahouse in front. ¡°This young Miss!¡± Lin Tian shook his head gently, and his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile. Then, he followed Lin Yu¡¯er. Just as Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er walked into the teahouse¡¯s entrance, a figure suddenly fell in front of them. Lin Yu¡¯er could not help but be startled and immediately dodged to the back of Lin Tian. Before Lin Tian could clearly see the person who had fallen to the ground, he heard a strange voice. ¡°Seriously, what kind of trash dares to come and concern the second young master of My Li family these days?¡± Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er raised their heads and saw that the person who spoke was their sworn enemy, the second young master of the Li family, Li Yinjie. In Lin Tian¡¯s impression, this Li Yinjie was not a good person. Usually, he relied on the power of the Li family and his cultivation of the advanced stage of the body strengthening stage to commit crimes and abuse in Jade Lotus town. He had never done anything good. At this moment, the attendant beside Li Yinjie was holding onto a woman who was crying. Apparently, this woman was forced, but no one in the teahouse dared to step forward to stop her. Except for the person who fell to the ground just now. ¡°Li Yinjie, you molested a good woman in broad daylight. You will be punished.¡± Lin Rong got up and pointed at Li Yinjie as he cursed angrily. ¡°It seems that you still haven¡¯t suffered enough. Continue to beat him. I want to beat him until his mother can¡¯t recognize him.¡± Li Yinjie said coldly to Lin Rong, and then three attendants walked out from behind him. ¡°Lin Ronghua!¡± Lin Tian recognized that person¡¯s identity as Lin Rong, who was from a branch of the Lin family and immediately called out his name. Hearing someone call out his name, Lin Rong immediately turned his head and looked back. ¡°Lin Tian, Miss Lin Yu¡¯er.¡± At this moment, Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er saw the bruises on Lin Rong¡¯s face. Then, without saying anything, Lin Yu¡¯er quickly walked in front of Lin Rong and shouted loudly, ¡°Let¡¯s see who dares to come over.¡± Li Yinjie¡¯s follower recognized Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s identity and was ordered by Lin Yu¡¯er to stay where he was. The scene quickly descended into a confrontation. ¡°Lin Rong, what exactly happened?¡± Lin Tian went up and asked. Lin Rong did not delay and told the whole story in just a few words. It turned out that Li Yinjie was flirting with decent women in the teahouse. Lin Rong could not stand Li Yinjie¡¯s behavior, so he went up to stop him. In the end, he was beaten up by Li Yinjie¡¯s follower. After listening to Lin Rong¡¯s explanation, Lin Yu¡¯er praised him for doing a good job. Regarding this, Lin Tian was speechless and ridiculed in his heart: ¡°Seriously, what¡¯s the point of pretending to be b without strength?¡± At this moment, a notification sounded in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. [Ding! Triggered scenario mission!] [Mission: Help Lin Rong escape Li Yinjie¡¯s oppression.] [Reward: One black-grade lottery ticket!] Chapter 10 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Hearing the system¡¯s mission notification, Lin Tian could not help but pat his forehead and grumble in his heart, ¡°As expected of the system that helps others. It helps others when they are in trouble, right?¡± Just as he focused on the system¡¯s mission, Lin Yu¡¯er and Li Yinjie started arguing at the side. As the second young master of the Li family, Li Yinjie naturally recognized Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s identity. He saw Li Yinjie looking at Lin Yu¡¯er with a lecherous expression, his eyes all but filled with lewd. ¡°Oh, isn¡¯t this the beloved daughter of the head of the Lin family, Miss Lin Yu¡¯er?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you for a long time. Miss Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s beauty has become even more beautiful. Look at this little face.¡± As he spoke, Li Yinjie boldly reached out his hand to touch Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s porcelain doll-like snow-white face. Slap! Lin Yu¡¯er slapped Li Yinjie¡¯s demonic hand away with a fierce expression. She glared at Li Yinjie fiercely and said, ¡°I¡¯m warning you. Show me some respect.¡± ¡°Hahaha¡­¡± Upon hearing Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s words, not only did Li Yinjie not feel afraid, he even laughed maniacally and said arrogantly, ¡°Don¡¯t you know the relationship between our two families?¡± ¡°You are really naive to actually say, ¡®show me some respect to the people from the opposing families. Haha, I¡¯m dying of laughter.¡± Seeing that his young master was laughing, the servants at the side also joined in the laughter. The ear-piercing and annoying laughter caused Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s heart to be filled with anger. She clenched her fists tightly, and her shoulders trembled from the rage. ¡°You¡­¡± Lin Yu¡¯er couldn¡¯t take it anymore. She squatted down slightly and pushed her feet backward, causing fine dust to fly everywhere. Then, she dashed toward Li Yinjie, who was laughing maniacally. In a breath¡¯s time, Lin Yu¡¯er had crossed five meters and arrived in front of Li Yinjie. Then, Lin Yu¡¯er gathered her strength with her right hand and swung her fist. An invisible fist wind attacked Li Yinjie. ¡°With your strength, you want to fight with me?¡± ¡°You really overestimate yourself.¡± Facing Lin Yu¡¯er, who was rapidly approaching, Li Yinjie was not flustered. The clothes on his body fluttered even though there was no wind. Then, he quickly grabbed Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s right hand. ¡°I have already cultivated to the middle stage of the Qi cultivating stage. How can a body strengthening stage advanced like you fight with me?¡± Li Yinjie said with a sinister smile. ¡°D*mn it! Let go of me quickly. If my father finds out, you won¡¯t have a good ending.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er thundered as she struggled to free herself from Li Yinjie¡¯s palm. ¡°Your father? Let me tell you, our Li family has just received the attention of a large family. Your Lin family will obediently be annexed by our Li family.¡± As he spoke, Li Yinjie had a hungry expression on his face. He wanted to move closer to Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s neck. Looking at Li Yinjie, who was getting closer and closer, Lin Yu¡¯er immediately felt fear in her heart. She shouted, ¡°Don¡¯t come.¡± At this moment, Li Yinjie, who was still thinking of molesting Lin Yu¡¯er, suddenly felt a piercing pain in his right wrist. Immediately, he was in so much pain that he had no choice but to open his palm. Before turning his head to check what had happened, he was sent flying with a slap. ¡°If you don¡¯t have any strength, don¡¯t go up there and act pretentious.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s voice rang in Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s ears. The latter turned to look at Lin Tian in surprise. Tears were rolling in her eyes as she said excitedly, ¡°Just now, I thought that I was going to be¡­¡± ¡°Alright, Alright. There are so many people here watching. Everyone is making a fool of themselves.¡± Lin Tian gently patted Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s shoulder and comforted her in a soft voice. Then, he looked at Li Yinjie, who had been sent flying by him and secretly cursed in his heart. ¡°I just checked the system mission. How did things develop to such a State?¡± When the guests at the teahouse saw Lin Tian¡¯s slap that sent Li Yinjie flying, they were instantly stunned. ¡°Who is this person? How dare he hit the second young master of the Li Family?¡± ¡°From the looks of it, this person isn¡¯t that old. It seems like Jade Lotus town is going to have another genius!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. The second young master of the Li family just said that his cultivation is in the intermediate stage of the Qi refinement realm. This means that this person¡¯s strength is probably in the advanced stage of the Qi refinement realm!¡± Lin Tianping rarely left the Lin family compound. In addition, his strength before he awakened the system was weak, so not many people knew his identity. At this moment, after Li Yinjie¡¯s followers realized that their master had been hit, they rushed to Lin Tian to get back at him. However, even Li Yinjie, who was in the intermediate stage of the refinement realm, was sent flying by Lin Tian¡¯s palm. So what if his followers were in the body-strengthening realm? Lin Tian stepped forward and waved his tiny hand. One of his followers was sent flying and landed on the table beside him, crushing him into pieces. In just a short while, the three lackeys of the Li family were sent flying by Lin Tian¡¯s palm. ¡°The awakening system is indeed powerful. Now, we don¡¯t even need to use the ¡®Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist¡¯to deal with these people.¡± Looking at his own battle record, Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but feel delighted. ¡°Wow, Lin Tian, when did you become so powerful?¡± At this moment, Lin Yu¡¯er finally reacted. It was Lin Tian who had helped her out just now, and his face was filled with shock. How could Lin Yu¡¯er not be surprised when that noob, who had always been in the early body strengthening stage and had always been weaker than her, suddenly protected her today. Before Lin Tian could explain to Lin Yu¡¯er about his cultivation state, Li Yinjie, who had been slapped away, got up from the ground. He stared fiercely at Lin Tian and guessed in his heart, ¡°Where did this kid jump out from? could he be a cultivator from another city?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not right. The clothes on his body are clearly the clothes of a descendant of the Lin family.¡± After some speculations, Li Yinjie believed that Lin Tian should be the bodyguard sent by the Lin family to protect Lin Yu¡¯er. There wasn¡¯t any big power behind him. Then, Li Yinjie said fiercely to Lin Tian, ¡°Where did this servant come from? How dare he hit me so hard?¡± ¡°Even my father has never hit me like this in my entire life.¡± ¡°I will definitely not let you off today. I want you to die!!!¡± As the second young master, Li Yinjie naturally knew about Liu Qing¡¯s visit to the Li family yesterday. Therefore, he believed that his Li family was about to annex the Lin family with the support of a large family. Therefore, even if he were to take the life of a collateral branch disciple of the Lin family now, what? How could the Lin family have the extra energy to fight for justice for the collateral branch disciple, Lin Tian. ¡°I¡¯ve long heard that the second young master of the Li family has no morals or upbringing. So it¡¯s because he lacks the love of his father.¡± Lin Tian spread his hands and gave a sympathetic look as he sarcastically said. ¡°Hahaha¡­¡± Lin Tian¡¯s words caused the people in the teahouse to laugh involuntarily. ¡°D*mn it. Don¡¯t be so arrogant.¡± Hearing the laughter around him, Li Yinjie¡¯s anger became even more intense, and his face couldn¡¯t help but become ferocious. ¡°Just now, it was only your sneak attack that succeeded. This time, I won¡¯t let you touch it again.¡± After saying that, Li Yinjie circulated his cultivation technique and burst out imposingly. His clothes fluttered even though there was no wind, and the wind blew loudly. After displaying his excellent state, Li Yinjie no longer hesitated. His body was like a bow accumulating strength as he instantly pounced toward Lin Tian. ¡°Be careful of Lin Tian.¡± Seeing the imposing aura that Li Yinjie released, Lin Yu¡¯er couldn¡¯t help but worry for Lin Tian. ¡°Don¡¯t worry.¡± After Lin Tian said that leisurely, he slowly stepped forward to meet the attack. Very quickly, Li Yinjie¡¯s right foot brought a strong wind from his leg as it attacked Lin Tian. The strong wind swept through the air, making whooshing sounds. However, in front of Lin Tian¡¯s absolute strength, any of Li Yinjie¡¯s moves were like paper. As Lin Tian mobilized the spiritual energy in his Dantian, a vigorous and powerful aura instantly burst out and covered Li Yinjie¡¯s entire body. After sensing Lin Tian¡¯s powerful aura, Li Yinjie¡¯s expression immediately changed. ¡°How is this possible? When did the Lin family have such a strong person like you?¡± Li Yinjie¡¯s aura burst like a bubble, and when he was pressed to the ground by Lin Tian. ¡°F*ck. You dare to attack my Lin Family? Haven¡¯t you heard of my name in the underworld?¡± ¡°You better remember this now. If you have any problems in the future, come at me. Whoever cowers is the grandson.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s punches were aimed at Li Yinjie¡¯s face. Not long after, Li Yinjie¡¯s face became like a pig¡¯s, and his speech became unclear. Chapter 11 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Lin Yu¡¯er saw Li Yinjie almost getting beaten up, and she quickly went up to Lin Tian and tried to persuade him. ¡°Lin Tian, stop beating him up. If you kill Li Yinjie, this matter will be difficult to resolve.¡± Lin Tian thought that Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s sounded reasonable when he heard that. He then stopped and shouted to the terrified followers beside him, ¡°You lackeys, hurry up and carry your master away. If the treatment is not done in time, don¡¯t blame me for being harsh.¡± When the Li family lackeys saw that Lin Tian had left Li Yinjie, they rushed to their young master¡¯s side to check on him. How could they be in the mood to listen to Lin Tian? At this moment, Li Yinjie had already lost his focus after being slapped by Li Tian. His mouth was still chattering, and he didn¡¯t know what to say. Seeing this, his lackeys hurriedly carried Li Yinjie away and returned to the Li family to seek treatment. After Li Yinjie was carried away, the crowd surrounding the teahouse immediately cried out in surprise. ¡°Good job!¡± ¡°That Li family bully finally got taught a lesson today.¡± ¡­.. ¡°Miss Yu¡¯er, Lin Tian, thank you so much for today.¡± On the other side, Lin Rong walked in front of Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er and said excitedly, ¡°If it weren¡¯t for your help, I¡¯m afraid I¡¯d be lying in bed for a year and a half.¡± ¡°Lin Rong, you¡¯re treating me like an outsider.¡± Lin Tian patted Lin Rong¡¯s shoulder and said excitedly, ¡°We¡¯re both Lin family members. Of course, we have to help each other.¡± ¡°Moreover, I have no special characteristics. I just can¡¯t stand evil people who bully men and women.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s words made Lin Rong even more grateful, and Lin Yu¡¯er couldn¡¯t help but feel touched. ¡°Lin Tian is really a good person!¡± Just as Lin Tian was enjoying Lin Yu¡¯er and Lin Rong¡¯s touched gazes, the system mission notification sounded in his mind. [Ding! Mission: Help Lin Rong escape from Li Yinjie¡¯s oppression has been completed.] [Mission reward: One black-grade lottery ticket has been sent to the storage space. ] ¡°Black Grade Lottery Ticket?¡± ¡°A new system item has been activated.¡± Hearing that the mission reward had been sent, Lin Tian was delighted. ¡°I want to go back now. If you want to continue shopping, get Lin Rong to accompany you,¡± Lin Tian said to Lin Yu¡¯er in a hurry. At this moment, he couldn¡¯t wait to go back and check the new lottery ticket. ¡°No, I have to hurry home now and tell my father about the Li family¡¯s bullying.¡± Thinking of Li Yinjie¡¯s face just now, Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s small face revealed a fierce look. ¡°I won¡¯t go back with you guys for now. Now, I have to find a pharmacy to get some medicine.¡± Lin Rong gently stroked the lump on his face and said indifferently. Then, Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er returned to the Lin family. ¡°Are you sure you don¡¯t want to follow me to find my father?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er asked Lin Tian before they parted ways. ¡°If he finds out that you saved me, he will reward you again.¡± ¡°No, no, I still have something to do, so I¡¯ll take my leave first.¡± Lin Tian only had the system¡¯s reward in his heart. As for Lin Zhenshan¡¯s reward, what would he get? Very soon, Lin Tian returned to his room. Before opening the system, he carefully checked his surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, he locked the door. Actually, it was just a piece of wood stuck on the door. He had no choice. The living conditions were so tough. ¡°System, open the storage space.¡± After doing everything, Lin Tian called out the system and checked the mission reward. Following Lin Tian¡¯s soft call, a light blue virtual screen appeared before Lin Tian. The screen directly jumped to the storage space panel. Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but exclaim, ¡°This system is really human-like.¡± There were only two items in the storage space at the moment. One was 400 spirit stones. As for the use of spirit stones, Lin Tian¡¯s previous status was too low, so he didn¡¯t know much about it. Moreover, he didn¡¯t have any use for it at the moment. However, according to Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s usual description, Lin Tian, who had 400 spirit stones, could already buy a large courtyard in Jade Lotus town that wasn¡¯t any weaker than the Lin family¡¯s. This time, the other item was the reward: a black grade lottery ticket. ¡°Previously, I helped Lin Haoyu solve Liu Qing¡¯s problem and got ten consecutive lottery tickets. This time, I got one. Is it because the difficulty of this mission is low?¡± Lin Tian looked at the Xuan grade lottery tickets on the virtual screen and muttered softly. The system seemed to have heard Lin Tian¡¯s words, and it directly explained to him in the next second. [The system¡¯s lottery tickets can be divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black, and yellow. Heaven is the highest level, and yellow is the lowest level.] [The higher the level of the lottery tickets, the higher the quality of the prizes that the host will get.] [The last two lottery tickets are the lowest yellow lottery ticket.] ¡°This means that I will get a better item in this black-level lottery ticket.¡± After the system¡¯s explanation, the doubts in Lin Tian¡¯s heart were solved, and he looked forward to the lottery ticket even more. Holding the anticipation in his heart, Lin Tian called out softly, ¡°Use the black-level lottery ticket.¡± Following that, the black grade lottery ticket on the virtual screen turned into light particles and dispersed. A seven-colored python appeared and coiled out. After the seven-colored python had completed its nine revolutions, it spat out a red medicinal pill and stopped on the virtual screen. ¡°This system is quite interesting. A higher grade lottery ticket can have other special effects.¡± Lin Tian looked at the virtual screen before him and couldn¡¯t help but exclaim. The information of the medicinal pills drawn in this lottery ticket was directly displayed at the bottom. [Heaven-grade medicinal pill-dragon-tiger spiritual origin pill: Made from the blood essence of a true dragon and the blood essence of a godly tiger as the main ingredient. It is refined from various spiritual herbs for forty-nine days and contains supreme pure spiritual energy. The user has a chance to obtain the dragon-tiger true soul within.] ¡°Dragon-tiger true soul?¡± ¡°If I obtain the Divine Tiger Primordial Spirit within it, I wonder if it will strengthen my Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist?¡± Thinking of this, Lin Tian no longer hesitated. He silently received the ¡®dragon-tiger Primordial Spirit Pill.¡¯ A faint light flashed, and a scarlet red pill appeared in Lin Tian¡¯s hand. Lin Tian immediately swallowed it. The two auras instantly exploded after the pill entered his mouth, turning into a stream of pure energy that flowed in Lin Tian¡¯s body. Moreover, Lin Tian faintly heard the roars of dragons and tigers, which made his spirit rise. Very soon, Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation base broke through the bottleneck of the Qi refinement realm with the help of the ¡°Dragon and Tiger Spirit origin pill.¡± He cast his sea of Qi in his Dantian and reached the early stage of the Sea of Qi realm. Chapter 12 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation As a heaven-grade pill, the dragon-tiger spiritual origin pill¡¯s medicinal efficacy was not something that could be easily refined by someone in the aura refining realm. Therefore, after Lin Tian consumed the dragon-tiger spiritual origin pill, he had been cultivating in his room, circulating the heaven and earth sacred technique to refine its medicinal efficacy. After Lin Tian went into closed-door cultivation, the situation in Jade Lotus town began to shake. Perhaps they had the support of the Liu family behind Liu Qing, that the Li family became more and more impudent in the town, and the tension between them and the Lin family became more intense. The Lin family¡¯s business and shops were often harassed by the Li family. When the disciples of the two families met on the streets, they would fight each other. To resolve the conflict between the Lin family and the Li family, Lin Zhenshan, the head of the Lin family, had been running up and down all day long. His entire person had become much more haggard. Lin Yu¡¯er looked at her father, who was getting thinner by the day. Her heart was filled with sorrow. When she wanted to talk to Lin Tian about her troubles, she found that his room was tightly shut. Initially, Lin Yu¡¯er thought Lin Tian was sleeping there and wanted to forcefully demolish his room door. However, when she got close to the wooden door, she felt a strong energy and a steady breath coming from inside. Lin Yu¡¯er withdrew her thoughts of violently opening the door because she knew that Lin Tian was currently cultivating inside and should not disturb him. ¡°Sigh, Big Brother is currently cultivating in seclusion, and Lin Tian is also cultivating in seclusion.¡± As she said that, Lin Yu¡¯er turned around and left, leaving behind a lonely figure. Time passed, and soon five days had passed. At this moment, in the Lin family¡¯s meeting hall, a group of core members of the Lin family was all present, discussing the current situation. Lin Zhenshan, sitting on the family head seat, had turned his head, which was initially full of black hair, into a patch of white hair. There were a few more wrinkles on his face, and he looked much older and more haggard. ¡°The Li family is really going overboard these days. They often send people to our Lin family¡¯s restaurant to cause trouble.¡± ¡°And they don¡¯t call people to cause trouble. Instead, it¡¯s the people of the Li family who directly cause trouble.¡± ¡°They came in to eat a few mouthfuls and said that the ingredients weren¡¯t fresh. Then, they flipped the table and smashed the stool.¡± ¡°It¡¯s obvious they don¡¯t take our Lin family seriously.¡± A chubby middle-aged man with a fat head and big brain looked excited. When he spoke, the fat on his body trembled. ¡°That¡¯s right. Not long after our Lin family¡¯s jewelry shop received a batch of goods, a few people came in.¡± ¡°They were either making things difficult for the shop assistants or trying to take advantage of the female shop assistants.¡± ¡°After that, they said they were unhappy and directly smashed the shop. Before the new batch of jewelry was sold, many of them were smashed.¡± ¡°They left without any compensation after saying, ¡®We are from the Li family.''¡± A skinny man dressed in beautiful clothes was also excitedly talking about the evil deeds of the Li family. These two people were the direct descendants of the Lin family. They were in charge of the Lin family¡¯s restaurant and jewelry business, respectively. After they talked about it, other people in charge of the Lin family¡¯s business told them about the Li family¡¯s harassment of the Lin family over the past few days. For a moment, the Lin family¡¯s meeting hall was filled with noise. Lin Zhenshan¡¯s head was splitting from listening to it, but he couldn¡¯t do anything about it. ¡°Family head, I wonder where young family head went when the Lin family was in such a difficult situation?¡± At this moment, Lin Zhenhai suddenly asked about Lin Haoyu¡¯s situation with a strange tone. The current situation of the Lin family was so chaotic. How could Lin Zhenhai, who had been keeping a close eye on the position of the family head, let go of the influence of Lin Zhenshan¡¯s faction? After hearing Lin Zhenhai¡¯s question, the other elders looked at Lin Zhenshan. They also wanted to know why the future Young family head of the Lin family did not appear in the meeting hall at This Moment? ¡°Zhenhai, you are overthinking. After taking the jade spirit marrow, Haoyu¡¯s cultivation foundation is recovering. He is currently in closed-door cultivation.¡± Lin Zhenshan¡¯s expression was calm as he said indifferently. ¡°Moreover, after Haoyu comes out of closed-door cultivation this time, I believe his strength will definitely become stronger.¡± ¡­.. Just as the Lin family¡¯s meeting room was bustling with noise, Lin Tian¡¯s side had basically finished refining the medicinal efficacy of the ¡°Dragon and Tiger Spirit origin pill.¡± At this time, Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation had already broken through to the late stage of the sea of souls realm. This result surprised even him. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that after eating a medicinal pill, I would directly break through two realms from the late stage of the Qi refining realm to the Sea of Souls Realm.¡± Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in admiration as he felt the spiritual power in his dantian like a vast ocean. Moreover, the spiritual sea in Lin Tian¡¯s dantian was formed by the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique¡± after being compressed many times. The spiritual power contained in it was far stronger than that of the ordinary sea of souls realm cultivators. With the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique¡± and ¡°Heaven Lake Collapsing Fist,¡± Lin Tian now could cross realms and challenge others. Just as Lin Tian wanted to use the ¡°Heaven and earth sacred technique¡± to continue his cultivation, he realized that the speed of absorbing spiritual Qi had become much slower. He could hardly absorb any more spiritual qi. ¡°Eh? I¡¯ve already reached the peak of the sea of souls realm. Am I about to break through to the Spirit Soul Realm?¡± After Lin Tian discovered his own cultivation situation, he muttered softly. From what Lin Tian knew about cultivation, breaking through to the spiritual soul tier was unlike the previous few tiers. One only needed to continuously absorb spiritual qi and forge it in the direction of the spiritual ocean tier. To break through from the spiritual ocean tier to the spiritual soul tier, one needed to nurture one¡¯s spiritual soul. This required the birth of a demon core to nurture one¡¯s spiritual soul. As for a demon core, it could only be obtained by hunting powerful demonic beasts. ¡°Alright, Next, I need to find a powerful demonic beast.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s expression was resolute as he spoke in an indifferent tone. His eyes flickered with a bright light, filled with yearning for the future. After understanding the path of cultivation, Lin Tian began to plan to leave his clan to hunt demonic beasts. Chapter 13 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Before Lin Tian left, he needed to go to the kitchen. He needed to inform the kitchen manager there. Because he was initially in charge of the firewood in the kitchen, it belonged to the people in the kitchen. This time, he would definitely not be back for a while. He needed to hand over some work. The firewood that Lin Tian lived in was next to the kitchen, so he arrived at the kitchen after a few steps. At this moment, the kitchen was busy preparing lunch for the Lin family. In the kitchen, a tall and thin middle-aged man was commanding the chefs with a severe expression. The tall and thin middle-aged man was the kitchen manager that Lin Tian was looking for. ¡°Uncle Lin is busy,¡± Lin Tian greeted him. This middle-aged man was a good friend of Lin Mingtian¡¯s father when he was alive. He was also a member of the side branch of the Lin family. Therefore, the middle-aged man asked Lin Tian to call him that. ¡°Yo, I haven¡¯t seen you for a few days. Where have I been fooling around for You?¡± Upon hearing Lin Tian¡¯s voice, uncle Lin immediately turned to look at Lin Tian and said with a smile. ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯ve only recently found the feeling of cultivation. I¡¯ve been cultivating in my room for the past few days.¡± Lin Tian said slowly. After hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, uncle Lin recalled when Lin Tian had helped the young master out of his predicament and when he had taught the Li family¡¯s second young master a lesson. He understood that Lin Tian must have encountered some sort of fortuitous encounter to have the ability to do such a thing. ¡°You had been in the limelight a while ago. Suppose you didn¡¯t help the young master out of his predicament. In that case, you¡¯d be helping Miss Yu¡¯er out of the second young master of the Li family¡¯s harassment.¡± Uncle Lin said with a faint smile but then immediately reminded him. ¡°I don¡¯t know what kind of expert you¡¯ve received guidance from, but you¡¯ve offended the young master of the Li family. I hope you¡¯ll pay attention to your safety when you go out.¡± ¡°I know that. Don¡¯t worry, Uncle Lin.¡± ¡°Oh right, you came to find me for something, right?¡± ¡°You said I offended the Li family¡¯s second young master a while ago. I don¡¯t think hiding in the Lin family like this is a good idea.¡± ¡°So I plan to hide outside for a while and gain some experience.¡± Lin Tian said lightly. Initially, Lin Tian planned to tell Uncle Lin directly about going to the demonic beast mountain range to hunt demonic beasts. However, when he thought about how his previous strength was so terrifying that he could even kill a chicken in their eyes, now that he had suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, he was going to hunt demonic beasts. This would probably attract the attention of others, so Lin Tian planned to hide his true, current situation to avoid causing unnecessary trouble. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Uncle Lin. I still have a batch of firewood in my room. That should be enough for you to burn for another month.¡± ¡°Firewood is just a small matter. I want to remind you to be careful when you go out to train,¡± said uncle Li. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll be leaving first.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian turned around and left. ¡°Wait a minute.¡± At this moment, uncle Lin suddenly shouted from behind him. ¡°During the few days you were in closed-door cultivation, I saw Miss Yu¡¯er outside your room several times. I don¡¯t know what she wanted to find you for.¡± ¡°So before you leave, you¡¯d better go and look for her and see why she wants to look for you?¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± Hearing that Lin Yu¡¯er wanted to look for him, Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but feel puzzled. ¡°I remember that before I went into seclusion, I didn¡¯t seem to have made arrangements with her.¡± Unable to figure out the whole story, Lin Tian responded. ¡°Then I¡¯ll go and look for Miss Yu¡¯er now.¡± At the same time, Lin Yu¡¯er just happened to walk out of the room, heading toward the kitchen. ¡°Sigh, I¡¯m not in a good mood. As expected, I still need to eat something to be happy.¡± Not long after, Lin Tian and Lin Yu¡¯er met in the Lin family residence. In the courtyard. ¡°Lin Tian, you¡¯re finally out.¡± Seeing Lin Tian¡¯s figure, Lin Yu¡¯er said excitedly. ¡°These few days, because of the Li family¡¯s targeting, everyone in the Lin family has been busy. I don¡¯t know what I can do either. I¡¯m so bored to death.¡± The moment they met, Lin Yu¡¯er talked endlessly about the worries of the past few days. ¡°The Li family¡¯s targeting? Did something happen to the Lin family again?¡± Hearing Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s words, Lin Tian immediately asked. According to the previous two system missions, Lin Tian had probably figured out the premise of triggering the system mission scenario. That should be because someone or something related to Lin Tian had gotten into trouble, and the system would issue a mission to that person. Therefore, Lin Tian was a little happy when something happened to the Lin family. That was because he could continue to receive the reward for his cultivation through completing the mission. Then, Lin Yu¡¯er told Lin Tian everything that had happened to the Lin and Li families over the past few days. However, after listening to Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s explanation, the system¡¯s notification did not ring in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. ¡°Strange, why didn¡¯t the mission scenario trigger?¡± Lin Tian muttered softly. ¡°What are you mumbling about?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er said. ¡°Nothing. I was thinking of going out to train and bring something along?¡± Lin Tian smiled and said embarrassedly. ¡°What? You want to leave the family and go out to train?¡± Lin Yu¡¯er heard Lin Tian¡¯s plan and could not help but feel slightly surprised. From what Lin Yu¡¯er knew, there shouldn¡¯t be too much of a difference in strength between her and Lin Tian. But now that Lin Tian had already planned to train outside while she still had to stay in the Lin family, such a difference couldn¡¯t help but make her a little surprised and envious. ¡°This is a divine explosion talisman. This talisman paper contains a full-strength attack of the spiritual soul state. ¡°If you encounter any danger outside, it might be able to save your life.¡± As she spoke, Lin Yu¡¯er took out a long, pale blue talisman. Some obscure words were carved on the talisman, and its surface looked very smooth and soft. ¡°You should keep this talisman for yourself. I remember you once said that the Lin family¡¯s patriarch secretly gave it to you to save your life.¡± ¡°If I take it, what will you do if you encounter danger in the future?¡± Lin Tian tactfully rejected Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s good intentions. After all, with his current strength, even if he fought against a spiritual soul realm cultivator, it was not as if he was powerless. One had to know that he was currently cultivating two earth-rank cultivation techniques. ¡°You should take it. If I stay in the Lin family, what danger will I encounter? It¡¯s not like you are going out to train now.¡± Lin Yu¡¯er did not care about Lin Tian¡¯s reaction and stuffed the godly explosive talisman into Lin Tian¡¯s hand. Lin Tian saw Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s attitude and did not let her good intentions down. He took the godly explosive talisman and said, ¡°I¡¯ll take this godly explosive talisman. Take it as me owing you first. Then, when I find something good outside, I¡¯ll definitely bring it back for you.¡± ¡°Alright, then it¡¯s a deal. You Can¡¯t go back on your word.¡± Seeing that Lin Tian didn¡¯t reject her anymore, Lin Yu¡¯er immediately revealed a smile. Lin Tian didn¡¯t have many clothes and luggage. After chatting with Lin Yu¡¯er, he returned to his room to pack up for a while before leaving the Lin family home. This time, his target was the training grounds for the cultivators of the Qing Xuan Continent¡ªthe demonic beast mountain range. The mountain range of demonic beasts was just like the literal meaning. It was not the territory of humans, and all kinds of demonic beasts lived there. In the mountain range of demonic beasts, besides demonic beasts, there were also many spiritual plants and herbs. Those spiritual plants and herbs grew naturally in heaven and earth. Therefore, their vitality and spiritual energy were basically higher than the spiritual plants and herbs cultivated in the cultivators¡¯ enclosure. Therefore, the disciples of the various sects and the itinerant immortal cultivators of the Qing Xuan continent often came to the demon beast mountain range to gain experience and pick up spiritual herbs. Over time, the Demon Beast Mountain Range became the training ground that the cultivators of Qing Xuan continent had to go through. Chapter 14 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Although Jade Lotus town was only a small border town in the Qing Xuan continent, the herb business in the town was not to be underestimated. Caravans often visited various places in the Qing Xuan continent to search for spiritual herbs. Among them, some caravans went to the vicinity of the Demon Beast mountain range to buy the spiritual herbs of explorers. As one of the three big families in Jade Lotus town, the Lin family also had their own caravans that went to the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Thus, he found the Lin family caravan after Lin Tian left the Lin family, hoping to hitch a ride. After transmigrating to this fantasy world, Lin Tian had always been too weak to venture outside the Lin family. Thus, he had never left Jade Lotus town since he was young. The furthest he went was the outskirts of Jade Lotus town. Thus, Lin Tian had no idea how to get to the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Lin Tian was quite lucky. When he found the Lin family¡¯s caravan, they happened to set off for the Demonic Beast mountain range today. The Lin family was not big. If something happened, it would quickly spread throughout the entire Lin family. Everyone in the Lin family knew that Lin Tian had insulted Liu Qing and beaten up the second young master of the Li family. Therefore, when the members of the Lin family¡¯s caravan saw that Lin Tian wanted to hitch a ride, they agreed without hesitation. The Demon Beast mountain range was extremely vast. It was not an exaggeration to say that it ran through the entire Qing Xuan continent. There was an entrance to the Demon Beast mountain range thousands of miles away from Jade Lotus town, but that was only the tip of the iceberg. After seven days and seven nights of turbulence, Lin Tian finally arrived outside of the Demon Beast Mountain Range. ¡°Entering from here is considered entering the demon beast mountain range. It¡¯s not as peaceful as on the road. There might be demon beasts jumping out at any time and place.¡± ¡°You have to be 120% alert. Don¡¯t underestimate the danger of this Demon Beast Mountain Range.¡± The leader of the Lin family¡¯s caravan pointed at the dense forest not far away and said to Lin Tianyu earnestly. ¡°Alright, I will take note. Uncle Lin Ge thanks you for caring for me all the way.¡± Lin Tian said with a smile. Lin Ge was the leader of the Lin family¡¯s caravan. On the way, he told Lin Tian many secrets about the Demon Beast mountain range and took great care of him. At this moment, Lin Tian followed the Lin family¡¯s caravan to a plain. The Lin family¡¯s caravan would not enter the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Instead, they would go to the city outside the Demon Beast mountain range to buy spiritual plants and herbs. The rest of the journey would require Lin Tian to go alone. After that, Lin Tian bade farewell to the Lin family¡¯s caravan and walked straight into the mountain range of demonic beasts with confidence and determination. Only when Lin Tian entered the mountain range of demonic beasts did he genuinely realize how vast it was. Those with a slightly poor sense of direction would probably lose their sense of direction after entering. The surroundings were filled with towering spiritual trees and overgrown shrubs. From time to time, birds and beasts would hear all kinds of strange cries. Lin Tian held a snow-white and bright longsword in his right hand. He cautiously looked around and slowly walked into the depths of the demonic beast mountain range. Lin Tian was out for the first time but still a little nervous. Before he set off, Lin Tian had specially gone to the weapon store in Jade Lotus town to pick up this sword. Although Lin Tian had never learned any sword techniques, how could he not have a longsword when traveling in the world. Which man didn¡¯t have an illusion that he had a memory of walking the world with a sword? ¡°Roar!¡± Just as Lin Tian was wandering in the demonic beast mountain range, a leopard-shaped demonic beast in the Qi refining realm pounced on him from the spiritual tree. After breaking through to the spiritual sea realm, Lin Tian¡¯s senses were greatly enhanced by the abundant spiritual power. When the leopard-shaped demonic beast appeared, Lin Tian also noticed it at the first moment. Looking at the rapidly descending leopard-shaped demonic beast, Lin Tian did not feel panic and even felt a trace of excitement in his heart. ¡°Is This a demonic beast? I can finally test my current strength.¡± As he spoke, Lin Tian mobilized the spirit sea in his dantian. The aura around his body suddenly burst out, sweeping up the surrounding leaves and scattering in all directions like a wave of air. Then, he held the sword in his right hand and attacked the leopard-shaped demonic beast. After the leopard-shaped demonic beast felt Lin Tian¡¯s spirit sea realm aura, it couldn¡¯t help but feel shocked and immediately retreated in fear. With a frightened expression, it seemed to be saying, ¡°How did a Qi refining realm demonic beast like me provoke such a person! ?¡± However, there was no medicine for regret in this world, and it was useless for the leopard-shaped demonic beast to regret now. A silver light flashed and slashed from the bottom to the top, causing bright red blood to spill into the air. Da Da! After Lin Tian landed on the ground, he saw that the leopard-shaped demonic beast was no longer breathing. It had already been cut in half by his sword. ¡°It¡¯s so easy. It seems that this demonic beast isn¡¯t powerful.¡± Lin Tian muttered softly. After killing this demonic beast, he wasn¡¯t as excited as he had imagined. He did not even use much of his strength in that sword attack before the other party died. Moreover, the sword¡¯s body in his hand was not stained with the blood of the demonic beast. ¡°This demonic beast does not have a demonic core. Perhaps I need to go deeper before I can meet a demonic beast with a demonic core.¡± Lin Tian rummaged through the leopard-shaped demonic beast¡¯s body and discovered no trace of a demonic core. After saying that, Lin Tian headed deeper into the mountain range of demonic beasts. After that, Lin Tian did not know how far he had walked and how deep the mountain range of demonic beasts was. He walked from day to night and encountered many demonic beasts along the way, but most of them could not withstand his sword. His sword skills were clearly not profound, so it could only be said that those demonic beasts were too weak. Without exception, Lin Tian didn¡¯t find any demonic cores on those weak demonic beasts. ¡°Looks like I need to set up camp and rest here tonight.¡± Lin Tian looked at the pure white full moon in the sky and said calmly. ¡°Hiss, hiss, hiss!¡± Just when Lin Tian was leaning against the spiritual tree to rest, the sound of snake-like tongues was heard. Not far from Lin Tian, a snake-shaped demonic beast appeared. It was hiding in the darkness, staring at Lin Tian, who was ¡°Sleeping.¡± ¡°Eh?¡± Lin Tian didn¡¯t open his eyes when he sensed the demonic beast¡¯s presence. He pretended to be asleep, and at the same time, he was on guard against the attack of the demonic beast. The demonic beast seemed to have sensed that Lin Tian had fallen asleep, and it slowly approached with its long body, leaving a long and thin mark on the ground. Just when it was five meters away from Lin Tian, the snake-shaped demonic beast suddenly burst out, and it rushed into Lin Tian like a bow and arrow. ¡°Sea of Souls Realm Demonic Beast!¡± At this time, Lin Tian sensed the strength of the demonic beast. It was actually in the same sea of souls realm as him. He couldn¡¯t help but feel shocked. He quickly jumped up from the ground and dodged the attack of the snake-shaped demonic beast. In the next second, Lin Tian was hit by the snake-shaped demonic beast on the spot he had just left. It stirred up a cloud of dust, mixed with some wood shavings of spiritual wood. After landing on the ground, Lin Tian quickly steadied his body and stared forward with a serious expression. When the smoke and dust dispersed, a ten-meter-long python was revealed. On the python were flower-like patterns, with two small bumps on its head. ¡°This can¡¯t be the sky-shocking patterned python, right?¡± After seeing the full appearance of the attacking Demonic Beast, Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in surprise. Thanks to Lin Yu¡¯er, Lin Tian had seen the information about the sky-shocking patterned python in the Ten Thousand Beasts picture book in her hands. It was said that this patterned heaven-shocking python was a Sea of Souls Realm Demonic Beast when it was born, and it naturally broke through to the Spirit Soul Realm when it reached adulthood. Most importantly, its body contained the bloodline of a true dragon, and it could transform into a flood dragon when it reached adulthood, reaching a higher level of demonic beast. Facing the patterns of a heaven-shocking python, Lin Tian put away his long sword and assumed the stance of the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist.¡± Lin Tian didn¡¯t want to die by using a long sword that he wasn¡¯t good at to deal with this kind of innate advantage demonic beast. With the circulation of the Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist, Lin Tian¡¯s Aura became even stronger. The sky-shaking python on the opposite side kept spitting its tongue at Lin Tian. Its eyes didn¡¯t move away from him, as if it had already decided to eat him. ¡°Ha!¡± Lin Tian shouted, and his feet immediately exploded with power. His body turned into an afterimage and quickly rushed toward the sky-shaking python the next second. Lin Tian crossed a distance of more than ten meters and arrived in front of the patterned heaven-shocking python. Before Lin Tian could punch, the python swung its tail first. The powerful tail smashed fiercely towards Lin Tian, who was on the ground. In response, Lin Tian withdrew his fist stance and dodged to the side. Then, taking advantage of this opportunity to attack, he punched out, bringing with it a powerful fist wind as it fiercely smashed onto the python. Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! The heavy fist sent the snake flying, and it let out a painful howl. But before Lin Tian could be happy, the serpent flipped over and attacked again. Thus, the man and python fought. After an hour, the insufferably arrogant patterned heaven-shocking python finally fell to the ground and could not get up. At this time, Lin Tian was already covered in dust, and his clothes were full of holes. Without much rest, Lin Tian slashed open the python¡¯s head with his sword. ¡°I¡¯ve finally found the demon core!¡± Looking at a muddy ball, Lin Tian said happily. ¡°Stop, don¡¯t think about leaving here today.¡± After Lin Tian took out the demon core, a voice came from not far away. Chapter 15 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation After hearing the sound of someone nearby, Lin Tian didn¡¯t hesitate and quickly hid, concealing his aura. In this desolate demon beast mountain range, the most dangerous existences weren¡¯t the demon beasts but the human cultivators. In his previous life, Lin Tian had read many such stories. Soon, a white figure flashed past the place where Lin Tian had fought with the heaven-shocking python, and Lin Tian happened to be hiding nearby. At this moment, a streak of flame streaked across the sky like a shooting star. A breath later, it hit the white figure in front of him. Bang! Accompanied by a series of explosions, a streak of flame appeared, illuminating the surrounding spiritual plants and flowers and Lin Tian¡¯s face. However, no one noticed him. Thanks to this white light, Lin Tian could clearly see the white figure of a cultivator. It was a young man. Lin Tian could not see his face clearly as the white light had not appeared for long. According to Lin Tian¡¯s guess, this person should be a few years older than him. Rustle! Rustle! Before Lin Tian could think further, a series of hurried footsteps came. Although Lin Tian couldn¡¯t tell how many people were there by their footsteps, he knew that there were many of them. ¡°Wang Shouyun, let¡¯s see where else you can run to.¡± Soon after, six more people arrived nearby. The leader, Ye Chenwu, shouted fiercely. Lin Tian could vaguely see six people: four men, and two women, through the faint moonlight. These six people were about the same age as the white-clothed cultivator, probably under 20. Among them, Wang Shouyun¡¯s cultivation was the highest, at the late stage of the Qi and blood realm, followed by Ye Chenwu, who was at the middle stage of the Qi and blood realm. The other five cultivators were all at the late stage of the Qi and blood realm. And these people were all around the same age as him, which meant that the other party should be a local prodigy. This strength was even stronger than Liu Qing, who was in the late stage of the Qi refinement realm a few days ago. ¡°Bah!¡± The white-clothed man who had called Wang Shouyun spat out a mouthful of blood. He stared at the six people chasing him with a disdainful expression and said with contempt, ¡°Tch, Ye Chenwu, don¡¯t be too arrogant. You¡¯re just taking advantage of the number of people.¡± ¡°If you have the ability, come out and fight me one-on-one!¡± ¡°Come out and fight me one-on-one!¡± When he said the last sentence, Wang Shouyun couldn¡¯t help but Roar angrily. ¡°Hahaha!¡± Seeing Wang Shouyun¡¯s flustered and exasperated look, Ye Chenwu and the other six couldn¡¯t help but laugh at the side. ¡°Wang Shouyun, are you scared, silly? I have the numerical advantage, so why would I want to fight you one-on-one?¡± Ye Chenwu laughed wildly and said, but then he shouted sternly, ¡°Stop talking nonsense. Wang Shouyun, hurry up and hand over the treasure. Otherwise, even if you are the successor of the Heavenly Sword Sect, you won¡¯t be able to get out alive.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. Young Master Wang, you should know that it¡¯s not a rare thing for a heaven¡¯s favorite to die in the Demonic Beast mountain range every year.¡± One of the female cultivators in a purple robe said coldly. ¡°Indeed, the treasure got us into an argument.¡± Lin Tian, hiding in the dark, couldn¡¯t help but curse in his heart after hearing their conversation. On the other side, Wang Shouyun looked at Ye Chenwu angrily. ¡°Wishful thinking.¡± ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, you should be prepared to die.¡± While speaking, Ye Chenwu didn¡¯t dawdle anymore. He mobilized the spiritual power in his dantian, and the aura around him soared. Seeing this, the five people around ye Chenwu also circulated their cultivation techniques, releasing their own auras. For a moment, aura waves surged through the forest, forming several turbulent currents that blew away the fallen leaves on the ground. The violent air currents swept up the surrounding leaves, causing the leaves on the spirit trees to rustle. Lin Tian, hiding in the bushes at the side, reached out his hands to grab the branches in front of him, stabilizing them so that his figure wouldn¡¯t be exposed. Wang Shouyun, who was alone, was not willing to be outdone. His powerful aura burst out with a roar. Before the two sides had even started fighting, the auras of both sides had already collided and were facing off steadily. Looking at the almost level situation, it was apparent that Wang Shouyun¡¯s aura was superior. However, this was only a level of aura. In actual combat, Wang Shouyun still did not have much advantage. As Ye Chenwu¡¯s figure swayed, the other five quickly attacked Wang Shouyun with weapons in their hands. Facing the multi-directional attacks of Ye Chenwu¡¯s six people, Wang Shouyun could only defend with great difficulty, unable to find an opportunity to counterattack. Wang Shouyun had just sent two people¡¯s attacks flying with a single sword strike when the attacks of the four people behind him immediately followed. This was repeated over and over again. Soon, Wang Shouyun¡¯s spiritual energy and physical strength were exhausted, and he was at a disadvantage. Lin Tian, who was watching the show from the side, had already roughly figured out the ins and outs of the incident through eavesdropping on their conversation. This group of young people was all elites of some factions, and they had specially come to this demonic beast mountain range to train. That Wang Shouyun was an elite of the heavenly sword sect. While training in the demonic beast mountain range, he had found some valuable treasures, and another group of people had discovered them and wanted to seize them. Hence, Wang Shouyun was hunted down by another group of people. ¡°From what these people said, I guess the power behind them is not something I can afford to offend for the time being. I¡¯d better leave.¡± Lin Tian looked at the seven people fighting fiercely and muttered softly. The purpose of coming to the mountain range of demonic beasts this time was to find the demonic core and use it to nourish the spiritual soul to break through to the spiritual soul realm. Now that he had already obtained the demonic core of the shockingly patterned python, Lin Tian did not want to interfere in anything. Besides, the few of them were currently fighting, so naturally, they would not pay attention to anything else. It was a good opportunity to leave. Lin Tian did not know if they would let him go if they found his tracks? ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± As he said that, Lin Tian turned around and was about to sneak away. [Ding!] At that moment, the system notification sounded in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. [Detected host watching a show. Triggered scenario mission: Help Wang Shouyun escape from ye Chenwu¡¯s pursuit.] [Mission reward: Xuan Grade 10 consecutive lucky draw * 1.] ¡°F*ck! Xuan Grade 10 consecutive Lucky Draw!¡± Seeing the mission reward, Lin Tian was pleasantly surprised. He could not help but exclaim but quickly covered his mouth with his hand. Then, he turned his head to look at the people behind him. Ye Chenwu and the others did not hear Lin Tian¡¯s voice. They were still engaged in a heated fight. When Wang Shouyun, Ye Chenwu, and the others had exploded their auras just now, Lin Tian had sensed that the strongest among them was only in the sea of the Qi realm. It was just a piece of cake for him. ¡°It seems that it¡¯s time for me to be kind and helpful again.¡± The corners of Lin Tian¡¯s mouth rose slightly, forming a faint smile. Chapter 16 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Just as Lin Tian had decided to accept the system mission to help Wang Shouyun escape, Wang Shouyun could no longer withstand the siege of ye Chenwu and the others. Ye Chenwu suddenly retreated from the siege of Wang Shouyun and took out a red talisman from his pocket. Then, he quickly opened and closed his mouth and chanted a spell. As Ye Chenwu chanted, the talisman in his hand gradually emitted red light, and a faint power rose. Wang Shouyun, who was trapped, saw ye Chenwu¡¯s actions from the corner of his eye and cursed inwardly, ¡°Not good, scarlet flame amulet!¡± Wang Shouyun recognized this scarlet flame amulet. It was fast and powerful, and its power had the power of an early sea of souls realm attack. He had been hit by this amulet just now. He had also brought a few crimson flame amulets when he came to the Demon Beast mountain range this time. Still, they had all been used in the previous battle between the Demon Beasts. ¡°Shou Yun Wang, you should be happy. This is the last crimson flame amulet I have.¡± As he spoke, Ye Chenwu held the Crimson Flame amulet between his fingers and waved it toward Shou Yun Wang. The next second, the Scarlet Flame appeared again and flew towards Wang Shouyun with a swoosh. Wang Shouyun looked at the approaching flame, and his eyes quickly moved left and right, trying to find a flaw to dodge the scarlet flame amulet. However, the few people present were not the elites of the current era, so how could they not guess this little bit of thought. Each of them stared at Wang Shouyun with a strict defense, completely surrounding him. Helpless, Wang Shouyun could only raise his sword and cut through the scarlet flames. In the blink of an eye, the sword attached to the spiritual power came into contact with the scarlet flames emitting a scorching temperature and causing an explosion. Several wisps of flames exploded and dispersed in all directions. Wang Shouyun was also forced back a few steps by the violent force. The light of the explosion clearly reflected Wang Shouren¡¯s figure. The five people surrounding him saw this big opening of his and quickly launched an attack. Each of their attacks was its own unique technique. Each of them aimed at his vital point, intending to kill him. Seeing the vicious and vicious attacks on the five people, Wang Shouren immediately mobilized his spiritual energy. Taking the risk of being injured, he forcibly changed his posture to block the attacks of the five people. Ding! Dang! Clang! A series of crisp sounds of swords clashing could be heard. Wang Shouyun used his strange body to dodge backward. However, with every step he took, there would be blood on his body. After five moves, Wang Shouyun did not die. He forcefully moved his body to avoid the fatal wound. However, the result was that his bones and tendons were damaged, and he could not move anymore. Wang Shouyun could not dodge the following attacks. He was like a fish on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered. ¡°Ya ya ya, the dignified young master of the Heavenly Swords Gate has fallen into such a sorry state.¡± Ye Chenwu looked at the blood-stained Wang Shouyun with sarcastic sarcasm. At this time, Wang Shouyun¡¯s inverted hand sword inserted itself into the ground. The snow-white sword slightly shook, struggling to support the body, does not fall. Wang Shouyun has a face of anger and fierce eyes in front of Ye Chenwu. ¡°Wang Shouyun, I don¡¯t want to kill you either. As long as you call out the treasure, I¡¯ll spare your life.¡± Ye Chenwu looked as if he had the victory scroll in his hands. A fake smile appeared on his face as he said indifferently. ¡°Wishful thinking!¡± Wang Shouyun would rather die than submit. He enunciated each word clearly. ¡°Since you want to die, I¡¯ll fulfill your wish.¡± After saying that, Ye Chenwu raised the long sword in his hand, and a cold light flashed. Then, he leaped up and stabbed at Wang Shouyun¡¯s glabella. Looking at the sword continuously enlarging in his eyes, Wang Shouyun still had a fearless expression on his face as he looked straight ahead. Just as Ye Chenwu¡¯s long sword was about to stab into Wang Shouyun¡¯s glabella, a fierce tiger¡¯s roar came from above his head. Roar! Seeing this, Ye Chenwu hurriedly turned upwards to meet the unknown attack above his head. However, before raising his head to see the attack clearly, he felt a heavy force hit his chest, and he could not help but fly backward. The people behind him reacted quickly and caught Ye Chenwu, but they were still forced back a few steps by the powerful force before stopping. ¡°Six people fighting one person, can¡¯t you all have a little more face?¡± Lin Tian¡¯s face was filled with disdain as he said calmly. ¡°Who are you?¡± Ye Chenwu, who had stabilized his body, said with a puzzled expression. ¡°I¡¯m just a kind person who just passed by.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s face was still expressionless as he said indifferently. ¡°Since you¡¯re just a passerby, I advise you to leave quickly and not meddle in other people¡¯s business,¡± Ye Chenwu said. ¡°That¡¯s right. We¡¯re from the Bei Xuan faction. You can¡¯t afford to offend us.¡± The others agreed. ¡°That¡¯s what they say, but I don¡¯t have other hobbies. I just like to see injustice on the road and draw my sword to help.¡± ¡°I¡¯m definitely going to interfere with his matters today.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s expression was calm, without the slightest hint of panic. The main reason was that he didn¡¯t know what kind of existence the heavenly sword faction and the Bei Xuan faction were. Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, Wang Shouyun could not help but feel touched. Lin Tian did not know about the existence of the north mystery sect, but Wang Shouyun did. The North Mystery Sect and the Heavenly Sword sect were top sects in the Qing Xuan Continent. They were sects that could shake the Qing Xuan continent with a stomp of their feet. In Wang Shouyun¡¯s eyes, Lin Tian was not afraid of the threat of the North Mystery Sect and wanted to protect a stranger like him. How could he not feel it? ¡°Brother, you should leave. The six of them are not ordinary people.¡± ¡°I respect you very much for saying that.¡± Wang Shouyun persuaded Lin Tian to leave. He did not want Lin Tian to die for him. He did not sense Lin Tian¡¯s true strength when Lin Angel used the ¡°Heavenly Tiger collapsing fist¡± earlier. ¡°Rest well. Since I have decided to help you, I will naturally protect you.¡± Lin Tian said slowly, and then he said to Ye Chenwu and the others, ¡°Besides, these cats and dogs that only know how to besiege don¡¯t pose a threat to me.¡± Chapter 17 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°How dare you call us cats and dogs?¡± ¡°You are going to pay for what you said.¡± Hearing Lin Tian compare them to cats and dogs, Ye Chenwu and the others were furious and looked ferocious. ¡°Don¡¯t think you can defeat me just because you beat me back. That was just a sneak attack from you.¡± ¡°Now that you want to protect Wang Shouyun, you should be prepared to die with him.¡± Ye Chenwu, who was arrogant, did not believe that Lin Tian was stronger than him when he saw Lin Tian, who was a few years younger than him. This was his arrogance since he was young. He would not allow others to be more talented than him, and he did not want to believe this. As he spoke, Ye Chenwu again mobilized the spiritual power in his dantian, and his aura burst out again. The few heaven¡¯s favorites beside him erupted with a violent aura like ye Chenwu. As the violent aura burst out, their clothes and hair fluttered in the wind, and their eyes stared at Lin Tian. Their eyes were like venomous snakes, staring at their prey. Lin Tian saw the aura of Ye Chenwu and the others, and his expression was calm. He didn¡¯t seem to care at all. He spread his hands and said indifferently. ¡°In order to save everyone¡¯s time, all of you should attack together. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if you attack one by one. What big words. I don¡¯t know if your hair is fully grown or not. ¡°However, if you don¡¯t say so, we also intend to do so.¡± Ye Chenwu sneered and said. Then, Ye Chenwu exerted strength with his legs and turned into an afterimage as he rushed toward Lin Tian. The five elites behind him followed closely. When they were about to approach Lin Tian, they quickly pulled away and surrounded him. Sensing that they wanted to surround him, Lin Tian took the initiative to take a few steps forward in order to prevent Wang Shouyun from getting involved in the battle. ¡°I don¡¯t want the character target to die, or my mission reward will be ruined.¡± With this in mind, Lin Tian walked forward while circulating the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Crushing Fist.¡± Following Lin Tian¡¯s stance, a weak tiger roar was heard. When the people present heard it, they couldn¡¯t help but look surprised. Lin Tian stretched out his left hand with his palm facing upwards and his fingers slightly bent. He gestured to Ye Chenwu and said, ¡°Come here quickly, you piece of trash.¡± Ye Chenwu, who was rushing over, saw Lin Tian¡¯s gesture and understood the disdain in his eyes. The anger in his heart grew even more intense. ¡°How dare you underestimate me? I will definitely make you pay.¡± Ye Chenwu roared, and the sharp longsword in his hand quickly slashed toward Lin Tian. Facing the oncoming Ye Chenwu, Lin Tian calmly threw a punch. A strong and powerful fist wind rushed towards Ye Chenwu. On the way, the fist¡¯s wind swept up pieces of fallen leaves, leaving a long scar on the ground. How could a sea of qi realm cultivator like ye Chenwu withstand a punch from Lin Tian? Moreover, the martial technique Lin Tian used was an earth-grade martial technique, which significantly increased Lin Tian¡¯s strength. Soon, Ye Chenwu¡¯s sharp longsword cut into the solid and powerful fist wind and was sent flying by Lin Tian¡¯s punch as expected. The powerful fist wind instantly sent ye Chenwu¡¯s longsword flying. The remaining force sent him flying backward rapidly. He was like a sandbag streaking through the air before falling to the ground. ¡°Young Sect Master!¡± Seeing that Ye Chenwu was sent flying with one punch, the other five prodigies of the North Mystery sect hurriedly shouted at him. However, their attacks did not decrease. They were rapidly approaching Lin Tian. However, even their strongest, Ye Chenwu, was not a match for Lin Tian¡¯s single strike. What could the other five do? Lin Tian casually waved the move of ¡°Heavenly Tiger Crushing Fist.¡± The other five were like kites with their strings cut as they quickly flew backward. The powerful force landed on the fragile bodies of the five, causing them to spit out a mouthful of blood. The blood splattered on the ground, dyeing the soil red. ¡°Sea of Souls realm warrior?¡± After taking Lin Tian¡¯s punch, Ye Chenwu realized something was wrong with Lin Tian. ¡°Who are you? You have reached the Sea of Souls Realm at such a young age!¡± After the Bei Xuan faction members were sent flying, they panicked and looked at Lin Tian with fear. At this moment, even Wang Shouyun, who was severely injured, was shocked when he saw Lin Tian beat the members of the Bei Xuan faction back with one punch after another. ¡°Do you want to change your name? Do you want to change your surname? My surname is Lin, and ¡®Tian¡¯ is a single word.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s expression was calm as he said. ¡°Lin Tian?¡± Ye Chenwu whispered Lin Tian¡¯s name softly, but he could not find the corresponding person¡¯s information in his mind. He thought to himself, ¡°Could this person in front of me be a genius disciple from another continent?¡± Realizing that he could not defeat Lin Tian, Ye Chenwu did not drag things out. Without saying anything, he turned around and left with a few people. At this time, the sound of the system mission completion notification rang in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. [Mission: ¡°Help Wang Shouyun escape from Ye Chenwu¡¯s pursuit¡± completed.] [Reward: One Black Grade ten-row lottery ticket has been distributed to the storage spa. Please take note.] Seeing that the mission had been completed, Lin Tian was delighted. He had no intention of catching up to Ye Chenwu. After all, he had only taken action to complete the mission. Seeing that ye Chenwu had left, Wang Shouyun took out a medicinal pill that emitted a faint medicinal fragrance from his chest pocket and recovered his injuries in peace. After a few breaths, Wang Shouyun¡¯s face became much redder under the medicinal pill¡¯s recuperation. He was no longer as pale as before. Seeing that his mission had been completed, Lin Tian felt there was no need for him to stay any longer. He turned around and was about to leave. ¡°Wait a moment.¡± Just as Lin Tian was about to leave, Wang Shouyun suddenly shouted from behind. ¡°Is there anything else?¡± Lin Tian asked. ¡°Brother, my name is Wang Shouyun. I¡¯m grateful for saving your life this time,¡± Wang Shouyun said slightly. ¡°It¡¯s like this. Right now, I¡¯m seriously injured. If I return to the Heavenly Sword sect alone, I¡¯m afraid that I¡¯ll encounter gangsters on the way. I hope that you can escort me back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. There will definitely be a heavy reward after this.¡± ¡°Heavenly Sword Sect?¡± At this moment, Lin Tian recalled that Ye Chenwu had also mentioned a sect, the North Mystery Sect, so he asked curiously. ¡°The Heavenly Sword Sect that you mentioned and the North Mystery Sect that those people mentioned, what kind of power are these?¡± Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, Wang Shouyun was slightly stunned. He could not help but think in his heart, ¡°Now, there are people who don¡¯t know about the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery Sect.¡± Then, Wang Shouyun patiently introduced the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery Sect, as well as the grudge between him and Ye Chenwu. It turned out that Wang Shouyun was the young sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, while Ye Chenwu was the young sect master of the North Mystery Sect. Among them, the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery Sect were at the top level in the Azure Mystic Continent. After explaining, Wang Shouyun thought for a while and once again made a request to Lin Tian: ¡°During this experiential learning, I obtained a treasure, so I want to ask you again if you could escort me safely back to the Heavenly Sword Gate.¡± Chapter 18 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but I refuse.¡± Lin Tian expressionlessly rejected Wang Shouyun¡¯s request. After hearing Wang Shouyun¡¯s explanation, it was obvious that both the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery sect were powerful forces. To the Lin family now, it was obvious that the Lin family was not a powerful force. To casually get involved in the conflict between the young sect masters of the two forces would easily bring disaster to the Lin family. It might even lead to the destruction of the Lin family. At that time, he would become the sinner of the Lin family. ¡°Brother, don¡¯t be in a hurry to refuse. Don¡¯t worry. I will definitely not let you return empty-handed if I ask you to help. ¡°Whether it¡¯s saving me this time or safely escorting me back to the Heavenly Sword Sect, I can do my best to satisfy your request as long as the Heavenly Sword Sect has it.¡± Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s direct refusal, Wang Shouyun hurriedly said. Right now, in this demonic beast mountain range, let alone a human figure, there wasn¡¯t even a ghost. Besides Lin Tian, Wang Shouyun couldn¡¯t find anyone else who could escort him back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. Therefore, he had to firmly grasp onto Lin Tian, this life-saving straw. According to his understanding of Ye Chenwu, Ye Chenwu would definitely not let him off so easily. Moreover, he had a treasure with him at this time. Ye Chenwu would ambush him on the way home and snatch the treasure again. ¡°Actually, I¡¯m not as good as you think. The reason why I helped you earlier was first that I had a reason.¡± ¡°Secondly, I had no idea that you guys were the young sect masters of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery Sect, the successors of the two superpowers.¡± Lin Tian said calmly. ¡°I¡¯m just a member of a small family. If I were to get involved in the matters between you guys, it¡¯s hard to guarantee that the family behind me would not be affected.¡± ¡°And this time, I came to the demonic beast mountain range just to find the demonic core to nourish my soul.¡± Right now, he didn¡¯t have the strength to challenge a powerful force like the North Mystery Sect. If the north mystery sect found out he was supporting the Lin family, it would be a disaster. As for the protection of the Heavenly Sword sect, Lin Tian didn¡¯t dare to completely believe it. He wasn¡¯t sure if the heavenly sword sect would directly turn against him and abandon him. In the pugilistic world, people were vicious. Lin Tian understood this. However, Wang Shouyun didn¡¯t give up just because Lin Tian rejected him again. Especially when he heard Lin Tian¡¯s last words and understood Lin Tian¡¯s current needs, he was even more confident. He was afraid that he didn¡¯t know what Lin Tian wanted. As long as he knew what Lin Tian wanted, he could give in to his desires. Thus, Wang Shouyun said to Lin Tian again: ¡°As long as you escort me back to the Heavenly Sword Sect, I can use the young master¡¯s privilege to open the sect¡¯s treasure vault and let you choose any precious demon nucleus.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s heart was somewhat moved when he heard that Wang Shouyun could open the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s treasure vault for him and choose any demon nucleus. His left hand could not help but support his chin as he pondered. ¡°I saw the power of your moves just now. I think you must have already reached the late stage of the spiritual ocean tier. That¡¯s why you came to the demonic beast mountain range to look for demon cores.¡± ¡°I think you should also know that the better the quality of the demon core, the stronger the spirit soul it will nurture. Then, after breaking through to the spiritual soul tier, your strength will receive a greater increase.¡± Seeing that Lin Tian was already tempted, Wang Shouyun was delighted. He immediately struck while the iron was hot and praised the benefits of the precious demon core to Lin Tian. Lin Tian still didn¡¯t reply Wang Shouyun directly. He stood on the spot and thought about the pros and cons of this matter: ¡°This Wang Shouyun seems to be right. The demon core of the heaven-shocking python I just obtained is a rare species for an ordinary demon core. But it is still not enough compared to other precious and powerful demon cores. In addition, the heaven-shocking boa was only in its infant stage, and its demon core had not fully developed yet. Its quality was also much worse than it was in its adult stage. ¡°And the Heaven Sword sect is one of the top sects in the Qing Xuan continent. Such a powerful force should have even more powerful and precious demon cores in their treasury.¡± ¡°If that¡¯s the case, why don¡¯t I go and take a look?¡± After some consideration, Lin Tian felt that the advantages of escorting Wang Shouyun back to the Heaven Sword sect were greater than the disadvantages. Thus, he said. ¡°Alright, I will accept the mission of escorting you back to the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± ¡°However, don¡¯t forget the demon nucleus you promised me. If you lie to me, I will definitely not let you off easily.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Why would I lie to you?¡± Upon hearing that Lin Tian had agreed to escort him, Wang Shouyun¡¯s face immediately lit up with joy. He hurriedly said, ¡°If you have the chance, you can visit nearby cities and ask around. I, Wang Shouyun, have always been a man of my word.¡± ¡°Alright, stop boasting there. ¡°What are we going to do next?¡± Lin Tian interrupted Wang Shouyun and asked him what to do next. ¡°Look at me now. I should at least rest on the spot.¡± Wang Shouyun pointed at the wounds on his body and said awkwardly. Lin Tian didn¡¯t notice Wang Shouyun¡¯s wounds just now. Now he saw many wounds on his body, and a trace of blood was slowly flowing out. ¡°Disciples like you who go out to train should have medicine on you, right?¡± Lin Tian said. ¡°Of course. I swallowed a pill just now to alleviate my injuries. Otherwise, I might not be able to talk to you now.¡± Wang Shouyun explained. ¡°I can¡¯t believe it. Then you should heal yourself first. ¡°I¡¯ll stand guard by the side to prevent other demonic beasts or cultivators from disturbing you.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian came to a spiritual wood and sat down. ¡°Thank you.¡± Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian with gratitude and thanked him. After swallowing the medicinal pill, Wang Shouyun should have used his spiritual power to digest the medicinal effects. However, since there was no one to protect him then, he was afraid that he would be disturbed during the healing process, so he didn¡¯t treat him directly. Now that Lin Tian had agreed to protect him, Wang Shouyun could digest the medicinal effects peacefully and heal himself. The next morning, Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes and looked at the rising sun. He tried his best to stretch his arms and loosen up his muscles and bones. ¡°So comfortable!¡± Lin Tian did not fall asleep the entire night. He kept his eyes closed and always observed the situation around him. This was to protect Wang Shouyun, who was recuperating beside him. ¡°Lin Tian, thank you so much for protecting me for the night.¡± Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian and said with a smile. After a night of treatment, Wang Shouyun¡¯s injuries had greatly recovered. At least he could stand up and hurry on his way. ¡°You don¡¯t have to thank me so early. If you want to thank me, just wait until you return to the Heavenly Sword sect and bring the precious demon nucleus to thank me.¡± Lin Tian glanced at Wang Shouyun and said expressionlessly. ¡°Seeing that your breathing is stable now, you should be able to set off.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go. The earlier I send you back, the earlier I can go home.¡± ¡°Haha, Lin Tian, you¡¯re really an interesting person.¡± Wang Shouyun laughed lightly and said. Then, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun set off on the road to the Heavenly Sword Sect. Chapter 19 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Lin Tian, who had never left Jade Lotus town, did not know any other places outside of it. Naturally, he did not know the way to the Heavenly Sword Sect. Thus, on the way, Lin Tian asked Wang Shouyun for the location of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Regarding Lin Tian¡¯s question, Wang Shouyun patiently explained it to Lin Tian. However, when he answered Lin Tian¡¯s question, Wang Shouyun was very curious. How did Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation ability come about? When Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian, he felt like an inexperienced kid who didn¡¯t know anything. Lin Tian didn¡¯t know what Wang Shouyun thought of him, and he didn¡¯t care what the other party thought of him. However, after Wang Shouyun¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian now understood more of the layout of the Qing Xuan Continent. This nine regions continent was divided into nine continents, and the Qing Xuan continent was one of them. The Qing Xuan continent was divided into four regions, north, south, east, west, and north. There were cities of all sizes under the four regions for the next hundred years. The Lin family that Lin Tian was in was a small city at the border of the eastern region of the Qing Xuan Continent. It was very inconspicuous. In his previous knowledge, Lin Tian knew that the Lin family was a small city at the border of the Qing Xuan Continent. That was all. The Heavenly Sword sect was located in the southern region of the Qing Xuan Continent. It was more than 3,500 miles away from where they were now. According to Wang Shouyun, it would take them about five days to return to the Heavenly Sword Sect. They could only rest for six hours a day on the road. Moreover, they could only reach this speed with mounts. Therefore, after leaving the mountain range of demonic beasts, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun first visited nearby cities to look for mounts. After two hours of traveling, Lin Tian soon saw human buildings. It was a simple and crude city. Outside the city, there were some simple walls made of yellow earth. They were only two or three stories tall. ¡°¡®Yellow Earth City. This name sounds similar to its appearance.¡± Lin Tian looked at the signboard high above the city gate and said softly. Calling it a signboard was an exaggeration. From the looks of it, it was just a tattered wooden board with the words ¡°Yellow Earth City¡± engraved on it. Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s sarcastic words, Wang Shouyun explained to him, ¡°It is difficult to build a city outside the Demon Beast mountain range. Every once in a while, a large number of demon beasts will run out of the mountain range ¡°They would destroy everything in their way, including the city outside. ¡°And this city was just a short rest for the cultivators and a trading point for the merchants. Everyone didn¡¯t have a sense of belonging to the city. ¡°Therefore, no one was willing to protect the city outside. In the end, the city outside the Demon Beast mountain range could come and go as they pleased. There was no consideration for safety at all. ¡°However, the main reason was that this place was remote in the past, and there were no valuable medicinal herbs or demon beasts. Therefore, no power was willing to build a strong city here to defend against the invasion of Demon Beasts.¡± After listening to Wang Shouyun¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian thought, ¡°That¡¯s true. Why would they spend so much effort to build something without benefits?¡± The city gate of the Yellow Earth City was only six meters tall, which was even worse than the city gate of the Jade Lotus town. Looking from the outside, it seemed very desolate and cold. Two strong physique echelon cultivators stood next to them. Their clothes were all over the place, and they didn¡¯t look like soldiers. At a glance, they could tell they were purely used to fill the numbers. The scene inside became much more lively after passing through the city gate and entering the Yellow Earth City. People came and went. Vendors were setting up stalls everywhere. On the top of the stalls, there were mostly medicinal herbs and short weapons. There were only a few high-rise buildings, and the tallest restaurant only had three floors. After entering the city, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun separated. He let Wang Shouyun search for his mount alone. Meanwhile, he planned to find a more secret place to check the black grade ten consecutive lottery ticket he had just obtained. Previously, after completing the mission, Wang Shouyun had been by his side, so Lin Tian had no chance to open the system. Then, Lin Tian came to the last restaurant in Huangtu City and asked for a separate room. With the waiter leading the way, Lin Tian came to a room that was more than ten square meters. ¡°This is too small. A bed takes up more than half of the room¡¯s space.¡± Lin Tian looked at the narrow space in the room and complained. ¡°Look at what you said, sir. In this wilderness, it¡¯s already good enough to have a bed to sleep on.¡± The waiter smiled and said. ¡°But you guys are too much. With a room like this, you can only stay for a day with 50 taels of gold,¡± Lin Tian said. ¡°50 taels of gold can buy a large courtyard in Jade Lotus town.¡± ¡°Master, this is your first time in the Demon Beast Mountain Range. Who knows how many times loess city has been destroyed by demon beasts.¡± ¡°Our restaurant was also destroyed. Our manager hasn¡¯t even recovered the capital to build the restaurant.¡± As the waiter said this, he started to worry. Seeing this, Lin Tian didn¡¯t say anything more, telling him not to come over and disturb his rest. ¡°It¡¯s really a black market.¡± Lin Tian was ridiculed again, and the system appeared in his heart, opening his storage space. Seeing the shining silver lottery ticket, Lin Tian¡¯s displeasure from being cheated by the black shop immediately disappeared, and his face was full of joy. ¡°Let me see what good things the lottery ticket will bring me this time?¡± As he spoke, Lin Tian started to use the lottery ticket. The Rainbow Python that he saw last time came out of the lottery ticket again and slowly circled nine times on the virtual screen of the system. The seven-colored python¡¯s body would become bigger every time it circled around. By the time it was injured nine times, its body had already occupied the entire virtual screen. It opened its bloody mouth, and ten small light spots flew out of it. The system¡¯s notification sound rang out as well. [Congratulations, host, for obtaining an Earth-grade magic treasure: The Four Seas Heart Pendant] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining 10 Spirit Stones.] [Congratulations! You have acquired 100 years of cultivation.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 30 Spirit Stones.] [Congratulations! You have obtained an earth-rank magic treasure-the heaven-shaking finger tiger.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 100 years of cultivation.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 100 years of cultivation.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 100 years of cultivation.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 40 Spirit Stones.] [Congratulations! You have obtained 20 Spirit Stones.] [The lucky draw item has been distributed to the storage space. Please check carefully!] After the system notification ended, the system swiftly transferred the virtual screen to the storage space interface. ¡°Looks like the system isn¡¯t so rigid after all. It even knows how to jump to the screen I want in advance.¡± Lin Tian smiled faintly. Then, Lin Tian clicked on the protective artifact he had just drawn. The four seas return heart pendant. He looked at its introduction. [Four Seas Returning Heart Pendant: Forged from a thousand-year-old cold jade under the deep sea, it contains powerful water elemental energy and can withstand a full-strength attack from a late-stage spiritual soul realm expert.] [Note: If the wearer¡¯s surroundings contain water elemental energy, or if they block fire elemental moves, the protective power will be doubled.] Seeing the introduction of the system, Lin Tian could not help but suck in a breath of cold air in shock and exclaimed, ¡°D*mn! This protective magical treasure is too strong!¡± Chapter 20 - Alive Chapter 20 Alive What did it mean to block a full-strength attack from a late-stage spiritual soul realm expert? That meant Lin Tian could carry the four seas heart returning pendant and jump around in front of spiritual soul realm cultivators. Anyway, those spiritual soul realm cultivators couldn¡¯t break the pendant¡¯s shield. Moreover, the four seas heart returning pendant had an even more powerful hidden attribute. Under special circumstances, it could double its defense. If Lin Tian were to encounter a fire-type early-stage soul realm expert or an eearly-stagesoul realm expert in a place rich in water elements, the other party might not be able to break the four seas heart returning pendant. How could lin Tian not be pleasantly surprised by a magic treasure that could cross two levels to fight? Following that, Lin Tian withdrew from the introduction of the Four Seas Heart returning pendant and opened the next magic treasure with a smile ¡ª the heaven-shaking finger tiger. This time, the ten lottery prizes of the black grade were quite in line with Lin Tian¡¯s wishes, making up for his lack of defense and attack. (Heaven Shaking Finger Tiger: Using fine mica iron as the main material, gold essence has been added to the casting process, increasing its shocking ability. Even if used by Sea of Souls realm cultivators, it can easily shatter the hard cloud rock.] ¡°Isn¡¯t the cloud rock mainly used for the floor material of the arena? I remember it is a rock that even spirit soul realm cultivators can not shatter.¡± Looking at the introduction on the virtual screen, Lin Tian muttered softly. In his memory, Lin Yu¡¯er had once introduced the cloud rock to him. Then, without hesitation, Lin Tian took out the sky-shaking finger tiger. A white light flashed and floated into Lin Tian¡¯s palm. The light dissipated, revealing a pair of finger tigers. Then, a cold and heavy feeling was transmitted to his hand. Lin Tian carefully observed the sky-shaking finger tiger. The surface of the heaven-shaking finger tiger was gray, giving off an ancient aura. Two thin and long golden lines were carved on its sides, making it look extraordinary. Then, Lin Tian put it into his hand and immediately felt that his hand contained an extremely powerful force. Without thinking much, Lin Tian stood up and punched a few times in the air, and the wind from his punches was blowing. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind. ¡°What if I use the Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist?¡± As he thought about it, Lin Tian activated the spiritual power route of the Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist, and a powerful aura rose from his body. The air around Lin Tian suddenly became heavy. The ten-square-meter small room was creaking under the pressure of his aura as if it was about to collapse. Seeing this, Lin Tian immediately stopped, and the surroundings became quiet. ¡°Looks like this place isn¡¯t suitable for experiencing the heaven-shaking finger tiger,¡± Lin Tian said lightly. Then, Lin Tian also took out the four seas returning heart pendant and wore it around his neck. Then, he took out the four hundred years of cultivation that he had just drawn, and a pure power suddenly appeared in Lin Tian¡¯s body and flowed into his dantian. One breath later, Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation broke through to the middle stage of the Sea of Souls realm. ¡°It seems that the later stages of the realm require more and more spiritual power. The previous 300 years of cultivation allowed me to break through to a new realm.¡± ¡°The current 400 years of cultivation only allowed me to break through from the initial stage of the Sea of souls realm to the middle stage of the Sea of Souls Realm.¡± Lin Tian felt the increase in spiritual power and was lightly ridiculed. Knock, Knock, knock! At this time, there was a knock on the door. Lin Tian opened the door and saw Wang Shouyun standing outside. ¡°How did you know I was in this room?¡± Lin Tian asked. ¡°You are the only one who has a room in this restaurant today. Just ask the waiter, and you will know,¡± Wang Shouyun answered. ¡°I have already prepared the mount and the rations for the journey. We can continue on our journey.¡± ¡°Alright, let¡¯s go.¡± Before leaving, Lin Tian was still reluctant to part with the small room. It wasn¡¯t that he had feelings for it. It was purely because he felt sorry for his fifty taels of gold. After walking out of the restaurant, Lin Tian saw two strong horses tied to the door. ¡°Red Rabbit BMW?¡± Lin Tian was slightly surprised and said softly. The Red Rabbit BMW in this world did not refer to just one horse but a kind of mount. This kind of mount had a docile character. As long as it was guaranteed to feed, it would be very obedient. Moreover, its physical strength was very vigorous, and it was very suitable to be used as a mount. ¡°This is the only mount in Loess City. Let¡¯s make do with it.¡± Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian and thought he was not satisfied with the mount. In fact, it was the opposite. Lin Zhishan had a red rabbit horse. When Lin Yuler brought him to peek at it, Lin Tian had always wanted one. Lin Tian untied the rope and jumped onto the horse. He smiled and said, ¡°No, I¡¯m very satisfied with this red rabbit horse.¡± Thus, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun rode the Red Rabbit BMW to the Heavenly Sword Sect. On the way to the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun deliberately chose a small road to avoid Ye Chenwu¡¯s pursuit. Although this reduced a lot of danger, it would increase the distance. ¡°Isn¡¯t that a city ahead? Are we going to enter the city?¡± Lin Tian looked at the city not far away and said. In the past few days of traveling, they had either taken the roads deep in the mountains or small streets in the countryside. They had avoided the city, afraid that Ye Chenwu¡¯s spies would be inside the city. ¡°Up ahead is Qingbo City, a city under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± Wang Shouyun explained with a smile. As he spoke, Wang Shouyun¡¯s tensed heart couldn¡¯t help but relax. Very soon, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun arrived at the city gates of Qingbo City. On both sides of the city, gates stood two people dressed in silvery white light armor, holding long spears. The city walls were made of sturdy green bricks. An exquisite plaque hung high above the 16-meter-high city gates, with the words ¡°Qingbo City¡± engraved in the middle, adding a bit of grandeur to it. After passing through the city gates, they saw neat and clean streets and people walking in a hurry. ¡°Lin Tian, it¡¯s been hard on you to accompany me outside for the past few days. Today, I¡¯ll give you a comfortable room to rest in,¡± Wang Shouyun said. ¡°Hehe, then I won¡¯t stand on ceremony.¡± Lin Tian naturally wouldn¡¯t refuse to enjoy this matter. ¡°No, please let me go, Young City Lord.¡± At this moment, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun heard a miserable cry. Following the sound, Lin Tian saw a group of people gathered together. In the middle, a strong man was pulling a young girl. The young girl was in the midst of a downpour. She looked very sad and pitiful. It was obvious that the mournful cry was coming from the young girl¡¯s mouth. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that under the jurisdiction of our Heavenly Sword Sect, there would be such bullying.¡± Wang Shouyun furrowed his brows and glared at her angrily. After he said that, he immediately drove his mount towards the young lady. On the other side, Lin Tian had an indifferent expression as he muttered softly, ¡°In this world where the strong prey on the weak, such things are as common as the hairs on an ox. Why bother?¡± It was obvious that Lin Tian did not want to get involved in this matter. However, the system seemed to have sensed his negative attitude and did not want to let him have his way. (Ding! Scenario Quest triggered: Rescue the young girl from Hong Dahai¡¯s invasion.] [Quest Reward: Ten consecutive bronze lucky draw tickets) ¡°I¡¯m alive.¡± The corners of Lin Tian¡¯s mouth curled up slightly as he said with a light smile. Chapter 21 - Its My Habit To Help Chapter 21 It¡¯s My Habit To Help ¡°Stop.¡± Wang Shouyun rode in his red blood BMW and shouted at the crowd. For a moment, everyone¡¯s gaze turned in Wang Shouyun¡¯s direction. Hong Dahai, pulling the young girl forcefully, turned around when he heard Wang Shouyun¡¯s voice. At the same time, he said unhappily. ¡°Which blind bastard dares to disturb my interest?¡± However, before he could see who it was, he suddenly felt a powerful force on his face. Then, he was sent flying backward. ¡°Who is it? Who is it? How dare you hit me? Don¡¯t you know that Qingbo City is my territory?¡± After Hong Dahai was sent flying, he hurriedly got up and cursed loudly in anger. ¡°I know your name is Hong Dahai, so what?¡± At this moment, Lin Tian¡¯s voice rang out. He stood beside the young girl, spread his hands, and looked at Hong Dahai with a faint smile. After the system issued a new mission, Lin Tian did not hesitate. He took a step ahead of Wang Shouyun, leaped forward, and led the attack. He did not know if he could still complete this mission if Wang Shouyun came out to stop him first? After seeing Lin Tian had made his move, Wang Shouyun steadied the red blood BMW. He had already seen that Hong Dahai was only in the advanced stage of the Qi refinement realm and couldn¡¯t pose much of a threat to Lin Tian, so he didn¡¯t plan to make a move. ¡°So what? Today, I¡¯ll let you know the consequences of provoking me, Hong Dahai!¡± Hong Dahai snarled. How could Hong Dahai endure being slapped in front of everyone in his territory? Then, he circulated his cultivation technique and burst out imposingly. ¡°Late-stage Qi refinement realm, your strength is not bad,¡± Lin Tian said lightly, at Hong Dahai¡¯s outburst. Lin Tian¡¯s evaluation of Hong Dahai didn¡¯t mean to belittle him. A few days ago, Liu Qing, who came to the Lin family to break off the engagement, was only in the late-stage Qi refinement realm at that time. She was already praised as the favored daughter of Heaven by everyone. However, for Lin Tian, who was now in the Sea of souls realm, a cultivator in the advanced stage of the Qi refining realm was nothing to him. Lin Tian didn¡¯t even use the ¡°heavenly tiger collapsing fist.¡± He only mobilized his spiritual power, and the speed that he unleashed was already so fast that Hong Dahai couldn¡¯t see his figure clearly. In just a breath¡¯s time, Lin Tian had crossed more than ten meters, jumped in front of Hong Dahai, and kicked Hong Dahai¡¯s stomach. Hong Dahai didn¡¯t even catch a glimpse of Lin Tian¡¯s figure when he suddenly felt a strong force from his stomach, sending him flying backward again. The tall Hong Dahai only stopped after he knocked down more than ten hawker stalls in succession. ¡°Young City Lord, Young City Lord.¡± At this moment, Hong Dahai¡¯s attendant finally reacted. While shouting, he hurriedly ran to Hong Dahai¡¯s side and helped him. ¡°Argh¡­¡± Hong Dahai let out a painful moan. Just as his entourage assisted him, he suddenly felt a warm current from his throat about to come out. He opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood. ¡°It¡¯s over, it¡¯s over, it¡¯s over.¡± Seeing Hong Dahai spurt out blood, the entourage beside him instantly panicked. If the city lord knew that his precious son, Hong Dahai, was injured, his entourage would definitely be vented their anger and be severely punished. ¡°What are you all arguing about? Can¡¯t you see that I¡¯ve been beaten up? Hurry up and take care of him,¡± Hong Dahai roared. Hong Dahai, who had been hiding in Qingbo city to stir up trouble, had never thought about the gap between him and Lin Tian even though he had been sent flying twice by Lin Tian. After hearing Hong Dahai¡¯s words, his followers stood up in fear and looked at Lin Tian fear. They hesitated for a moment and didn¡¯t dare to go up and deal with him. After all, Hong Dahai didn¡¯t have a brain, but it didn¡¯t mean they didn¡¯t know the difference between Lin Tian and them. However, they couldn¡¯t disobey Hong Dahai¡¯s orders. In the end, they clenched their fists and swarmed forward. They thought that by relying on the advantage of the crowd, they could suppress Lin Tian. ¡°Hehe! You want to rely on the advantage of having more people, right?¡± Lin Tian sneered and said softly. The followers of the strong physique echelon cultivators in front of him were not enough to fill the gaps between Lin Tian¡¯s teeth. Lin Tian¡¯s figure disappeared on the spot once again. When he reappeared in people¡¯s view, those followers flew out like sandbags. Hong Dahai saw that his people were all sent flying by Lin Tian, and there was no one else around him. He finally realized the gap between him and Lin Tian. Hong Dahai looked at Lin Tian with a terrified expression, and in the end, he kept repeating, ¡°Don¡¯t come over. I¡¯m the Young City Lord. If You Touch Me, my father will definitely not let you off¡­¡± Faced with Hong Dahai¡¯s threat, Lin Tian did not care at all. He only cared about whether the mission had been completed. Now that the system notification had not appeared, the mission had not been completed, and he still needed to continue beating Hong Dahai up. ¡°1, Lin Tian, hate those who bully men and women the most, especially scum like you who dare to take liberties with her in broad daylight.¡± S ¡°If I don¡¯t teach you a good lesson today, I¡¯ll take your surname.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian rushed towards Hong Dahai and smashed his hard fist on his body. With every punch, Hong Dahai spat out a mouthful of blood. A moment later, Hong Dahai was knocked unconscious by Lin Tian and rolled his eyes. Seeing Hong Dahai like this, Lin Tian stopped. After Hong Dahai¡¯s followers saw Lin Tian was far away, they immediately ran to Hong Dahai¡¯s side and quickly carried him away. The surrounding crowd immediately cheered and clapped for Lin Tian¡¯s actions. For a moment, the applause was incessant. The young girl who had just been molested by Hong Dahai walked towards Lin Tian. There were two streaks of tears on her face. ¡°Thank you for your help, young hero. If you don¡¯t mind, why don¡¯t you come to my home as a guest?¡± The young girl bowed deeply to Lin Tian to express her gratitude and said. ¡°There¡¯s no need. It¡¯s a small matter. It¡¯s my habit to help others.¡± Lin Tian tactfully refused. At the same time, a system notification sounded in his mind. [Mission: Rescue the young girl from Hong Dahai¡¯s invasion completed.) [Mission Reward: Ten consecutive bronze lucky draw tickets have been distributed to the storage space.] ¡°It¡¯s complete,¡± Lin Tian thought to himself. Wang Shouyun saw Lin Tian¡¯s humble look and could not help but sigh. Lin Tian was an upright person, worthy of being a good friend! ¡°Young hero, you just hit the young city lord. I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, the city Lord will definitely find trouble with you.¡± At this moment, the young girl who had been saved advised with a worried expression. ¡°Thank you for your reminder, but you don¡¯t have to worry. I will handle this matter.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian turned around and left. After coming to Wang Shouyun¡¯s side, Lin Tian said to him. ¡°I just hit that Hong Dahai. He seems to be the young city lord of this city. Should we leave and hide for a while?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need. This Qingbo City belongs to our Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s jurisdiction. For such scum to appear, I should take care of it.¡± Wang Shouyun said with a serious expression. Following that, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun found an inn to stay in. After entering the seal, Wang Shouyun originally planned to open two sky-class rooms. ¡°Please come this way, please.¡± Da Da Da!!! Just as the waiter was about to lead Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun to their rooms, a burst of dense footsteps suddenly came from outside the inn. A tall, big middle-aged man with a big face and beard strode into the inn. ¡°Who is the man who injured my son? Stand Out!¡± Hong Lei Hu, the mayor of Qingbo City, shouted loudly. Chapter 22 - Sea of Qi Realm Cultivator Chapter 22 Sea of Qi Realm Cultivator Lin Tian looked around and carefully observed Hong Lei Hu. From the aura on his body, he determined that his cultivation should be at the early stage of the Sea of Soul Realm. ¡°He¡¯s only at the early stage of the Sea of Soul Realm. He¡¯s not as powerful as me.¡± Lin Tian looked at Hong Lei Hu with disdain and murmured softly. Lin Tian took out the heaven-shaking finger tiger as he spoke and wore it on his hand. He planned to directly beat Hong Lei Hu up and also try out the heaven-shaking finger tiger that he had just obtained. ¡°Your son dared to take liberties with a woman on the street in broad daylight. Shouldn¡¯t he be taught a lesson?¡¯ Before Lin Tian moved, Wang Shouyun stepped forward and reprimanded him. At the same time, he mobilized the spiritual power in his dantian. Then, the aura around Wang Shouyun suddenly soared, and the strong wind blew his clothes. ¡°Sea of Qi realm cultivator!¡± After Hong Lei Hu sensed Wang Shouyun¡¯s aura, he couldn¡¯t help but say in surprise. As a city lord, Hong Lei Hu had naturally seen many people. He saw that Wang Shouyun was not even twenty years old, but he already had the cultivation of Sea of Qi realm. He guessed that Wang Shouyun should be a proud son of heaven from a certain force, so he didn¡¯t dare to act rashly. For a moment, Hong Lei Hu¡¯s expression became more cautious, and he asked in a deep voice. ¡°May I know where your teacher is?¡± ¡°Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun.¡± Wang Shouyun said word by word. Upon hearing Wang Shouyun¡¯s name, Hong Lei Hu¡¯s expression immediately turned pale. He changed his imposing manner from before and said cautiously and conscientiously. ¡°I, Hong Lei Hu, pay my respects to Young Sect Master.¡± Qingbo city was located in a small city between the eastern and southern parts of the Azure Mystic Continent. It was very far away from the Heavenly Sword Sect. Hence, Hong Lei Hu had not seen Wang Shouyun many times, which was why he did not recognize him at first glance. At this moment, Hong Lei Hu suddenly thought, could it be that when his son had molested a woman, he was crippled by Wang Shouyun in front of him. ¡°Young sect master, your arrival this time is really too sudden. This lowly one did not receive the news in advance and was not prepared to receive you.¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you come to my residence and have a seat? I¡¯ll get someone to prepare a banquet immediately.¡± Hong Lei Hu Didn¡¯t bring up his son¡¯s matter first and changed the topic to another. ¡°There¡¯s no rush. Let¡¯s talk about your son first.¡± It was apparent that Wang Shouyun didn¡¯t fall for this trick. Hong Lei Hu adapted to the situation and fiercely slapped himself a few times. He said with a sobbing tone. ¡°It¡¯s all my fault for being too busy and not teaching my son well. That¡¯s why he did something bad today.¡± ¡°It¡¯s because my son didn¡¯t teach his father well. Young sect master, please let him off this time. I¡¯ll definitely teach him a good lesson when we get back.¡± ¡°I¡¯m only an old man. He¡¯s my only son. Please let him off this time.¡± Wang Shouyun was an upright person, but he was also a softhearted person. When Wang Shouyun saw a grown man like Hong Lei Hu suddenly begging for mercy for his son, he said, ¡°Alright, I¡¯ll believe you this time. Next time, if I find out that Hong Dahai once again bullied men and women and committed many evil deeds, I¡¯ll definitely kill him myself.¡± ¡°Alright, Alright. I¡¯ll listen to Young Sect Master.¡± ¡°You can leave. I¡¯ll just stay here. There¡¯s no need to prepare anything for me. I¡¯ll only stay here for one night.¡± Hearing that Wang Shouyun wanted him to leave, Hong Lei Hu did not dare to stay any longer. He was afraid that Wang Shouyun would go back on his words. ¡°Is this really good? Exposing your identity just like that? You have to think carefully. We have been hiding from the North Mystery Sect all this while.¡± Looking at Hong Lei Hu¡¯s departing figure, Lin Tian walked to Wang Shouyun¡¯s side and said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s fine.¡± Wang Shouyun patted Lin Tian¡¯s shoulder and said with a smile, ¡°This is a city under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Sword Sect. It¡¯s my territory. Why would they leak my identity?¡± Lin Tian didn¡¯t think so. In the books he had read, there was no lack of spies among the people close to the emperors and generals. However, seeing Wang Shouyun¡¯s nonchalant attitude, Lin Tian did not overthink it. On the other side, after Hong Lei Hu returned to the city Lord¡¯s mansion, he went straight to Hong Dahai¡¯s room. At this moment, Hong Dahai¡¯s entire body was wrapped in gauze, and bright red blood kept seeping out. After Hong Dahai was carried back to the city Lord¡¯s mansion, after a round of inspection, it was found that his meridians were seriously damaged, and he had been confirmed to be a cripple. ¡°How is Father? Did you catch the person who beat me?¡± Hong Dahai, lying on the bed, asked excitedly when he saw Hong Lei Hu enter. ¡°The person who beat you, son, is the young sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He is not someone we can afford to offend,¡± Hong Lei Hu said with worry. ¡°What? Doesn¡¯t that mean that I can¡¯t take revenge?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t, I don¡¯t, I must take revenge. I must get revenge.¡± As Hong Dahai spoke, he started to cry and make a scene, just like a three-year-old child. Hong Dahai¡¯s current personality was all because Hong Lei Hu doted on him since he was young When Hong Lei Hu Saw Hong Dahai¡¯s appearance, he couldn¡¯t help but feel his heart ache for him. Then, he sucked in a breath of cold air and comforted him. ¡°Alright, Alright, I¡¯ll think of a way for you.¡± As he spoke, Hong Lei Hu¡¯s gaze instantly became vicious. Not long after, Hong Lei Hu was writing a letter in the study. On it was written: Wang Shouyun is in Qingbo City and will be leaving tomorrow. After he finished writing, Hong Lei Hu handed this letter to a trusted aide and solemnly said to him. ¡°There¡¯s a teahouse ten miles outside of Qingbo City. Go there quickly and hand this letter to the owner.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The aide left immediately after he finished speaking Looking at the back of the leaving aide, Hong Lei Hu said softly, ¡°Wang Shouyun, Oh Wang Shouyun, since you¡¯ve ruined my son¡¯s cultivation path, then don¡¯t blame me for revealing your information to the Bei Xuan faction.¡± On the other side, Lin Tian, who was staying in the heaven-ranked room, was opening the system and consecutively drawing the ten bronze tickets. [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation.] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation.] (Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation.] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation.] [Congratulations, host, for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation.] [The items from the draw have been distributed to the storage space. Host, please take note and collect them!] ¡°D*mn! It¡¯s all cultivation this time!¡± Looking at the prize on the virtual screen, Lin Tian suddenly felt a little surprised. This time, he actually had a cultivation of one thousand years. But then he was excited again and said happily. ¡°It seems that my strength will be greatly increased again.¡± Then, Lin Tian used his cultivation of one thousand years, and rich spiritual power instantly surged into his body. Very soon, Lin Tian¡¯s realm broke through to the late stage of the sea of souls realm, and he clearly felt a huge amount of spiritual power in his dantian. At this moment, Lin Tian felt so much spiritual power in his body that he couldn¡¯t use it up. It was as if his body was about to explode from the spiritual power. ¡°It seems this bursting feeling won¡¯t disappear before I break through to the spiritual soul realm.¡± Lin Tian said lightly. At the same time, he was already planning to nurture his spiritual soul and prepare for breaking through to the spiritual soul realm. Chapter 23 - Wang Shouyuns Confidence Chapter 23 Wang Shouyun¡¯s Confidence The following day, Wang Shouyun arrived outside Lin Tian¡¯s room. Knock! Knock! Knock! Just as he knocked on the door, Lin Tian opened it and came out. It turned out that Lin Tian had already woken up and was sitting cross-legged on the bed. He had long heard Wang Shouyun¡¯s footsteps coming from afar. ¡°Have you¡­ become much stronger?¡± Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian in surprise. Wang Shouyun sensed Lin Tian¡¯s aura and felt that he seemed to have become stronger. And this was just one night. ¡°I¡¯m alright,¡± Lin Tian said calmly, but in his heart, he was surprised by Wang Shouyun¡¯s sharpness. ¡°Then let¡¯s continue.¡± Then, Wang Shouyun did not continue to pay attention to him. After saying that, he walked out of the inn. After leaving the inn, Lin Tian kept looking left and right, constantly alert to the situation around him. He waited until Lin Tian and the others walked out of Qingbo City¡¯s city gate before he spoke up the next day. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that there really wasn¡¯t anyone who stopped us. Looking at how Hong Lei Hu barged into the inn yesterday, I thought he would inform ye Chenwu about it.¡± ¡°Hahaha, I¡¯ve already said that this is the territory of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Why would they betray me?¡± Wang Shouyun smiled confidently with a relaxed expression. Since Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun entered the southern region of the Azure Mystic Continent, which was under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun had been leading Lin Tian along the main road. This made their speed much faster. Previously, it took Lin Tian and the others five days to travel from Huangtu City to Qingbo City, and they walked about 1,500 miles. This time, it only took them three days, and they had already crossed 2,000 miles, arriving at the foot of the mountain where the Heavenly Sword sect was located. At this time, the luggage on the horses of Lin Tian and the others had become flat, and there was not much food in it. Fortunately, they were about to reach the Heavenly Sword Sect, so there was no need to worry about food. Standing at the foot of the mountain, Lin Tian looked at the mountain range in front of him. Dense spiritual trees and forests covered the mountain range, greatly relaxing Lin Tian. In the distance, more than ten peaks rose from the ground and shot up into the sky, making people marvel at them. Even though he was standing at the foot of the Heavenly Sword Gate, Lin Tian could feel the concentration of spiritual energy here was even denser than the spiritual energy outside. After returning to the foot of the Heavenly Sword Gate, Wang Shouyun¡¯s tensed expression and heartstrings along the way suddenly relaxed, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face. ¡°The terrain of Your Heavenly Sword Gate is indeed formidable. Just the spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain is denser than the spiritual energy outside.¡± Lin Tian took a deep breath of the spiritual energy, and a refreshing smile appeared on his face as he said with a face full of enjoyment. ¡°Then do you want to go up and have a seat? The spiritual energy in the Heavenly Sword Sect is even denser than here.¡± ¡°And as a friend, why don¡¯t we treat you well when you come to my place?¡± Wang Shouyun said with a smile. If he had just met Wang Shouyun, Lin Tian would not have agreed to his invitation. As the saying went, the human heart was sinister in a dog-eat-dog world. He also didn¡¯t know if Wang Shouyun was tricking him into joining the sect, then killing him. Although he was only sixteen, his cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm. After the ordinary evil cultivators saw it, they would probably want to capture and dissect him to see why his cultivation talent was so powerful. However, after a few days of traveling, Lin Tian gradually saw Wang Shouyun¡¯s character. In addition, Lin Tian felt that he had already broken through to the late stage of the Sea of souls realm, and the spiritual power in his body was overflowing. Now, he needed properly nurture his spiritual soul and prepare for the breakthrough into the spiritual soul realm. And in a large force like the Heavenly Sword Sect, with such a high concentration of spiritual power and the existence of many experts, no one should disturb him. Therefore, Lin Tian thought the heavenly sword sect should be an excellent place to cultivate, so he agreed. ¡°Then I¡¯ll accept it respectfully. I¡¯ll have to trouble you for a while,¡± Lin Tian said. ¡°There¡¯s no need to be so polite with our friendship,¡± Wang Shouyun said. After hearing that Lin Tian had agreed to go to the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun was happy. In Wang Shouyun¡¯s heart, Lin Tian¡¯s Sea of souls realm cultivation had already recognized him as a genius-level character. He was just about to introduce Lin Tian to the elders of the Sky Sword sect. Making friends with powerful people was also the education that Wang Shouyun had received since he was young. ¡°We only need two more mountains to see the three gates of the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± After saying that, Wang Shouyun continued to ride his red blood horse toward Heaven¡¯s sword gate. Just as Lin Tian was about to follow Wang Shouyun, he suddenly felt a chill behind him. Without any hesitation, he immediately shouted. ¡°Be careful! Dodge!¡± Wang Shouyun, initially relaxed, immediately tensed up after hearing Lin Tian¡¯s shout. He instantly gave up on his red blood horse and jumped to the right. Bang! Before Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun landed in the air, they heard an explosion from their original position. When they turned around, they saw the red blood BMW that had accompanied them for a while. It turned into a pile of blood and exploded. However, there was not much time left for Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun to feel sad for the red-blooded BMW. After landing on the ground, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun stabilized their bodies and quickly looked around to see who was attacking them. ¡°To be able to dodge my move, your strength isn¡¯t bad.¡± At this moment, an old and deep voice sounded in the air. Hearing the voice, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun immediately looked up and saw a gray-robed old man flying over. ¡°Spiritual soul realm expert!¡± Seeing the aura of the person who came, Lin Tian¡¯s expression couldn¡¯t help but become serious, and he exclaimed softly. ome ¡°Lin Tian, are you sure this person is a spiritual soul realm expert?¡± After Wang Shouyun heard Lin Tian¡¯s surprise, a trace of shock appeared on his face. ¡°I can¡¯t guarantee, but the other party¡¯s cultivation is definitely above the spiritual sea realm.¡± Lin Tian answered Wang Shouyun¡¯s question while keeping his eyes on the old man in front of him. After the gray-robed old man appeared, Lin Tian could clearly sense that his spiritual power was stronger than his. Lin Tian didn¡¯t think anyone in the spiritual ocean tier would be stronger than him if his spiritual power were stronger. Although the spiritual power of the gray-robed old man in front of him was stronger than Lin Tian¡¯s, it wasn¡¯t much stronger. Therefore, Lin Tian guessed that the old man should be a spiritual soul tier cultivator. ¡°Senior, I¡¯m Wang Shouyun, the young sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve met you, senior. I wonder if there¡¯s some misunderstanding between you and us?¡± Wang Shouyun cupped his fists at the gray-robed old man and said. Wang Shouyun knew the two combined were no match for the gray-robed old man, so he did not dare fight back directly. ¡°I know your identity. There is no enmity between us,¡± The gray-robed old man said lightly. ¡°Then why did you¡­¡± Before Wang Shouyun could finish his words, the gray-robed old man said directly, ¡°My name is Mo Yun. I came to look for you for the treasure in your arms.¡± ¡°Bei Xuan Gate Elder, Mo Yun?¡± Hearing the name of the person who had come, Wang Shouyun was shocked and said in surprise. Chapter 24 - Mo Yun, Spiritual Soul Realm Expert Chapter 24 Mo Yun, Spiritual Soul Realm Expert ¡°Do you know this person?¡± Lin Tian saw Wang Shouyun¡¯s shocked expression and immediately asked. ¡°This is also the first time I¡¯ve seen this Mo Yun. However, when I was in the sect, I often heard of the name Mo Yun. ¡°I heard that although this Mo Yun is an elder of the Bei Xuan sect, he likes to tease people whose cultivation level is weaker than his. Moreover, he is vicious and merciless. He is not liked by the top sects in the Qing Xuan Continent. ¡°This time, he came to me to ask for the treasure. It Must Be Ye Chenwu who instructed him to come.¡± Wang Shouyun¡¯s expression was solemn, and his tone could not help but become heavy. When he thought of the cruel methods that the elders of the Heavenly Sword sect had used against Mo Yun, his heart suddenly trembled. ¡°HMPH, besides being vicious and merciless, Mo Yun should also be a very sinister person.¡± Lin Tian looked at Mo Yun unhappily, his eyes filled with disdain. Because Mo Yun was a spiritual soul realm expert, when dealing with him and Wang Shouyun, he actually used as despicable a method as a sneak attack. ¡°Against this spiritual soul realm Mo Yun, I can¡¯t deal with him. Hurry up and Summon Your Heavenly Sword sect elder¡¯s disciple or something,¡± Lin Tian said softly to Wang Shouyun. Lin Tian had come to escort Wang Shouyun back to the Heavenly Sword sect for the demon nucleus, not to throw his life away. He had thought that the opponents he met on the way were just noobs like Ye Chenwu, but he had never thought that there would be a spiritual soul realm Mo Yun. Moreover, it was Mo Yun who was playing dirty tricks. Under such circumstances, Lin Tian would, of course, choose to run away. ¡°Uh, this¡­¡± At this moment, Wang Shouyun was suddenly in a difficult position. ¡°Don¡¯t stutter at such a critical moment. If you have something to say, quickly say it.¡± Seeing Wang Shouyun¡¯s expression, Lin Tian immediately felt a trace of unease. ¡°Our Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s address is vast. We still need to cross a mountain before we can call people over.¡± Wang Shouyun said embarrassedly. ¡°Then don¡¯t you have any magic treasures or talismans on you? Can you call for Your Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s people?¡± ¡°When I left, I left too quickly and forgot to bring them with me.¡± After hearing Wang Shouyun¡¯s words, Lin Tian was instantly petrified. ¡°Then I don¡¯t care about you. I¡¯m preparing to escape.¡± Just as Lin Tian said these words, the sound of a system notification suddenly rang in his mind. ¡°F*ck. System, don¡¯t tell me to deal with this spiritual soul realm Mo Yun now.¡± Hearing the system notification, Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but shout furiously in his heart. [Detected that the host is in the middle of an incident, triggering a scenario mission: protect the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun, under the attack of a late-stage spiritual soul realm cultivator, Mo Yun, until someone from the Heavenly Sword Sect arrives.) As soon as the system mission came out, Lin Tian had already observed the surrounding environment, looking for an opportunity to sneak away. He was already prepared to reject this mission. Who knew if this mission would send him to his death? The system¡¯s notification sound was still playing [Mission reward: 1 Earth-grade ten-string lucky draw] ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°Earth-grade ten-string lucky draw?¡± Hearing the mission reward this time, Lin Tian, who was about to escape, was stunned for a moment and thought to himself. ¡°This helping system knows how to torture people. It actually released an earth grade 10 consecutive lucky draw.¡± ¡°Damn it, why can¡¯t I risk my life to accept this mission?¡± However, he was afraid that he would really risk his life this time and lose his life in the lucky draw! Just as Lin Tian was still hesitating whether to continue protecting Wang Shouyun, Mo Yun began to make his move. Mo Yun opened his hands and raised them. The aura on his body immediately swept through the surrounding flowers and trees like a violent storm. For a moment, gusts of wind blew up sand and dust, mixed with withered grass and fallen leaves. The violent aura made Wang Shouyun raise his hands to block it. ¡°Wang Shouyun, since you are not willing to hand over the treasure, then I can only take it personally.¡± ¡°Violent wind splitting claw!¡± As he said this, Mo Yun shouted in a low voice. His palm turned into a claw and condensed a powerful spirit energy wind current into his hand, turning into a black shadow that attacked Wang Shouyun. Along the way, Mo Yun¡¯s hands continuously crossed and rotated in front of him. Several sharp wind blades appeared in front of him, drawing many cracks on the ground. Upon seeing this, Wang Shouyun immediately summoned his long sword and activated the heavenly sword sect¡¯s cultivation technique. The aura on his body immediately soared. Then, he looked sharply at Mo Yun, who was charging toward him, and shouted, ¡°You old fart, don¡¯t think that just because you¡¯re old, I¡¯m afraid of you.¡± After saying this, he waved the long sword in his hand, and a silver ray of cold light shot out. In the next second, the sharp wind blades in Mo Yun¡¯s claws collided with Wang Shouyun¡¯s silver light long sword, actually emitting a clear sound of blades colliding. Cling! Clang! Wang Shouyun continuously changed the sword style in his hand, using exquisite sword techniques to resist Mo Yun¡¯s several wind blades. However, the difference between his cultivation and Mo Yun¡¯s was really too great. ¡°Your sword techniques are definitely outstanding, but unfortunately, no matter how hard a qi and blood realm cultivator works, they still can¡¯t defeat a spiritual soul realm expert after two realms.¡± After saying this, Mo Yun became serious, revealing his true strength in the late stage of the spiritual soul realm. The wind blades in his hand instantly became stronger. In the next second, Wang Shouyun¡¯s long sword was sent flying by a wind blade. The rest of the wind blades followed closely behind, cutting towards his body. When those sharp wind blades slashed onto the body of the third Wang Shouyun, a heavenly tiger roar sounded behind him. Roar! Immediately after, a fierce and powerful fist wind fell from the sky, scattering all the wind blades in front of Wang Shouyun, turning into a gentle wind that fluttered in the air. ¡°If you want to kill Wang Shouyun, you have to ask me whether I agree or not.¡± Lin Tian landed between Wang Shouyun and Mo Yun. He pointed at Mo Yun with his left hand and said proudly. Wang Shouyun was touched. He thought to himself, ¡°As expected of my good brother. I knew you wouldn¡¯t abandon me like this.¡±. If Lin Tian knew that Wang Shouyun was thinking of such disgusting words, he would probably run away immediately. ¡°Oh, and who are you? You¡¯re a late-stage sea of souls realm cultivator, and you want to stop me, Mo Yun, from doing my job?¡± Mo Yun looked at Lin Tian and smiled, revealing his uneven teeth, making his face look slightly more sinister. ¡°Who am I? Why won¡¯t you give it a try and find out.¡± As he spoke, Lin Tian mobilized the spirit sea in his dantian. A vast ocean of spirit power surged through his meridians, causing Lin Tian¡¯s aura to suddenly soar into the sky. It was like a heavenly pillar formed by a hurricane, causing Wang Shouyun to be unable to help but feel shocked when he saw it, and his heart was highly amazed: ¡°Such a powerful aura, is it really the aura of the Sea of souls realm? Is this really the spiritual soul realm?!¡± Even Mo Yun, who was in the late stage of the spiritual soul realm, didn¡¯t look as relaxed as before when he saw Lin Tian¡¯s aura. His eyes immediately became solemn. Then, Lin Tian Yun performed the ¡°heavenly tiger collapsing fist¡±. The heavenly tiger divine power image followed his movements and faintly appeared in front of his eyes. Chapter 25 - A Fierce Battle With Mo Yun Chapter 25 A Fierce Battle With Mo Yun Mo Yun saw Lin Tian had started to move, and his aura was getting stronger and stronger. He was afraid that something might happen later, so he decided to take the initiative to attack first. ¡°You¡¯re just a kid. Stop your arrogance.¡± As he spoke, Mo Yun summoned two short sabers half a meter long. The body of the sabers gathered countless turbulent spiritual energy, causing the swords to emit waves of coldness as if they could easily take the lives of others. In the next second, Mo Yun disappeared from Wang Shouyun¡¯s eyes, causing him to shout in surprise, ¡°Mo Yun has disappeared.¡± ¡°Stop arguing over there. Hurry up and run back to the Heavenly Sword Sect to get help.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s Back was facing Wang Shouyun as he shouted in a low voice. His eyes were staring straight ahead, and his eyeballs were constantly rolling. Mo Yun¡¯s figure disappeared from Wang Shouyun¡¯s eyes. That was because his eyes could not keep up with Mo Yun¡¯s speed. At this moment, Mo Yun¡¯s figure constantly swayed in Lin Tian¡¯s eyes. Mo Yun¡¯s footsteps were very strange. Sometimes he was on the right, and sometimes he floated to the left. It was hard to catch him. The next moment, Mo Yun brandished his two sabers and came in front of Lin Tian, slashing down with the sharp wind blades. Lin Tian stomped heavily with both feet, holding the heaven-shaking finger tiger tightly as he smashed towards Mo Yun¡¯s wind blades. The sharp blade collided with the powerful sky-shaking finger tiger, causing sparks to burst instantly. The air pressure caused by the collision was like a huge wave that swept toward Lin Tian¡¯s surroundings. It stirred up smoke and dust, covering Lin Tian and Mo Yun¡¯s figures. However, very quickly, the thick smoke and dust were pushed away by Lin Tian and Mo Yun¡¯s imposing manner, and the two figures appeared again. However, the heavy pressure made Lin Tian feel a little breathless. Lin Tian¡¯s face was squeezed together, and he gritted his teeth to resist Mo Yun¡¯s attack. When the attack failed, Mo Yun immediately pulled away, then waved his two sabers and kept slashing at Lin Tian. ¡°Look at you, I guess my attack is not easy to bear.¡± Mo Yun attacked while speaking, affecting Lin Tian¡¯s mentality. Lin Tian didn¡¯t say anything. He kept waving his ¡°Heavenly Tiger Crushing Fist¡± to block Mo Yun¡¯s attacks. Ding-Ding! Ding-Ding! For a moment, the battle between Lin Tian and Mo Yun was like forging iron. ¡°This won¡¯t do. If this continues, my spiritual power will definitely be exhausted by this Mo Yun.¡± Thinking of this, Lin Tian suddenly erupted, and the outline of the heavenly tiger divine appeared behind him. Then, he unleashed a punch, and an incomparably powerful aura surged toward Mo Yun. This aura was not the slightest bit weaker than the aura of the spiritual soul realm on Mo Yun¡¯s body. ¡°What?¡± Seeing Lin Tian¡¯s aura eruption, Mo Yun was also very surprised and hurriedly swung his two blades horizontally in front of him. Very quickly, a powerful fist wind enveloped Mo Yun¡¯s entire body instantly. The airwaves that burst out swept out a tornado, wreaking havoc on the surrounding trees and flowers. Lin Tian knew that this punch alone would not be able to destroy Mo Yun or even seriously injure him. Then, he took out the godly explosive talisman that Lin Yu¡¯er had given him and quickly injected his spiritual energy into it. As the spiritual energy was injected into the godly explosive talisman, the surface of the godly explosive talisman lit up, and Lin Tian also felt a violent power coming from it. Without thinking much, Lin Tian immediately threw the activated godly explosive talisman into Mo Yun, who was in the tornado. In the next second, a huge explosion sounded, and a huge pillar of fire shot up into the sky. The hot air wave was as strong as a gale, sweeping all directions. Even Lin Tian was blown away by the fierce heat wave. After a few breaths, everything calmed down. ¡°It should be over, right?¡± Lin Tian got up from the ground and said indifferently. As he spoke, he looked around and saw some sparks burning on the ground. Those were probably dead branches and leaves burned by the heat wave. Suddenly, he felt a chill again. He hurriedly threw a punch in that direction. In the next second, a heavy force came from the heaven-shaking finger tiger. However, Lin Tian¡¯s punch dispersed the wind blades that came at him. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that a little brat like you would actually force me to this extent,¡± Mo Yun growled. At this time, the gray robe on Mo Yun¡¯s body had already become tattered, and his hair was like a bird¡¯s nest. ¡°Hmph, you¡¯re not bad either. In my estimation, you should be dead,¡± Lin Tian retorted, unwilling to show weakness. Lin Tian appeared very strong on the surface, but in reality, he was panicking in his heart. ¡°What should we do? We¡¯ve used all the methods we can now, but we can¡¯t defeat Mo Yun. We won¡¯t really die here, will we?¡± ¡°Wait, where¡¯s Wang Shouyun?¡± At this moment, Mo Yun noticed that Wang Shouyun was missing from the scene. Mo Yun didn¡¯t expect Lin Tian to be able to withstand his attack at first. He was too excited fighting with Lin Tian just now, so he didn¡¯t notice Wang Shouyun¡¯s departure ¡°I¡¯ll let you go for now. When I get the treasure from Wang Shouyun, I¡¯ll come back and take your life.¡± After saying that, Mo Yun quickly chased after the heavenly sword sect. ¡°I hope Wang Shouyun can be faster. You¡¯ve already found the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± Lin Tian said calmly. Then, he followed Mo Yun and rushed toward the Heavenly Sword Sect. Not long after, Lin Tian saw the figures of Wang Shouyun and Mo Yun on the top of a mountain. However, Wang Shouyun¡¯s situation was not optimistic at the moment. He was being suppressed by Mo Yun. The gap between the sea of Qi realm and the spiritual soul realm was too big. In addition, Wang Shouyun did not have Lin Tian¡¯s powerful cultivation method and martial technique, nor did he have a Dharma treasure like the Heaven Shaking Finger Tiger. ¡°Kid, are you not going to hand over the treasure?¡± Mo Yun held his saber with both hands and stared at Wang Shouyun as he said fiercely. Wang Shouyun frowned and looked at Mo Yun in front of him with a serious expression. At this moment, he was only one mountain away from the Heavenly Sword sect, five kilometers away. But that five kilometers was so far away. Now, he had to hand over the treasure or Die! But this treasure was essential to his future cultivation. It could be said that it was related to whether he could break through to the spiritual soul realm later. For a moment, Wang Shouyun was caught in a dilemma. ¡°Stop dawdling. I will chop you to death since you are unwilling to hand it over. Then, I will bring your corpse back to the north mystery sect to look for the treasure.¡± As he spoke, Mo Yun stopped dawdling. He raised the long saber in his hand and slashed at Wang Shouyun, who was on the ground. At this moment, a sharp sword aura seemed to cross the void. In the blink of an eye, it hit Mo Yun¡¯s body and sent him flying. ¡°Who are you? How dare you commit murder near My Heavenly Sword Sect?¡±. Following a loud shout, an elder of the Heavenly Sword sect appeared with a long sword in his hand. Mo Yun saw that the people from the Heavenly Sword sect had appeared and couldn¡¯t help but feel resentful. He knew that he wouldn¡¯t have the chance to get the treasure this time. ¡°Even if I don¡¯t get the treasure this time, I will still kill you, Wang Shouyun.¡± Mo Yun exploded again as he spoke, brandishing several wind blades toward Wang Shouyun. The elder of the Heavenly Sword sect naturally wouldn¡¯t sit idly by. He flashed his body and brandished his sword to disperse the wind blades clashing with Mo Yun. However, this was precisely what Mo Yun wanted. After tangling with the elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Mo Yun took out a talisman. Under Mo Yun¡¯s urging, that talisman actually emitted the might of the Divine Soul Realm. ¡°Not good.¡± When Wang Shouyun and the Heavenly Sword sect saw the charm, they could not help but feel uneasy. ¡°Go to Hell.¡± Mo Yun shouted in a low voice, and the charm in his hand immediately turned into a streak of fire and rushed toward Wang Shouyun. At the critical moment, Lin Tian appeared in front of the fire in a flash. The Four Seas returning heart pendant in front of his chest emitted a light blue air shield wrapped around Lin Tian¡¯s body. In the next second, the Divine Soul State¡¯s fiery light collided with the light blue energy shield, creating a loud roar and bursting out with scorching flames. Chapter 26 - Lie Down And Enter The Heavenly Sword Sect Chapter 26 Lie Down And Enter The Heavenly Sword Sect Although the spiritual ocean spiritual power in Lin Tian¡¯s Dantian was stronger than the others, he was still a late-stage spiritual ocean realm cultivator. In front of the power of the Spirit Soul Realm, he still couldn¡¯t withstand it. The powerful explosion sent Lin Tian flying. The talisman¡¯s power released by Mo Yun covered the entire mountain peak and flattened it. The explosion of the talisman had also caused a wave of thick smoke, enveloping the entire mountaintop. The thick smoke dispersed shortly, revealing Wang Shouyun¡¯s figure. Because Lin Tian had blocked the talisman for Wang Shouyun, Wang Shouyun had not suffered any injuries. Wang Shouyun immediately searched for Lin Tian¡¯s figure. He quickly found Lin Tian lying on the ground not far away. Without much thought, Wang Shouyun quickly moved to Lin Tian¡¯s side to check on his injuries. ¡°Lin Tian, how are you?¡± Wang Shouyun gently shook Lin Tian and asked. However, Lin Tian did not react and was in a coma due to his serious injuries. Although most of the damage from the talisman explosion was blocked by the Four Seas returning heart pendant on his chest, a small portion of the damage still hit Lin Tian. At this moment, a small crack had already appeared on the Four Seas returning heart pendant. This was the price it had to pay for resisting the power of the Divine Soul Stage Talisman. Lin Tian was able to survive due to the four seas returning heart pendant¡¯s special attribute. When faced with fire-type moves, its defensive ability was more than doubled. Without activating its special attribute, the Four Seas returning heart pendant was already able to block a full-strength attack from a late-stage divine soul stage cultivator. After activating the special attribute, it could barely withstand an attack from an early-stage spiritual soul realm cultivator. At this moment, Wang Shouyun noticed Lin Tian¡¯s chest was heaving slightly. When he noticed that Lin Tian was still alive, the tensed heartstrings in his heart instantly relaxed. ¡°If you hadn¡¯t blocked Mo Yun¡¯s talisman just now, I would have definitely died,¡± Wang Shouyun said with a sigh. Wang Shouyun couldn¡¯t help but feel very touched by Lin Tian¡¯s stand-up. ¡°From now on, you¡¯re my good brother.¡± On the other side, Mo Yun was fighting against the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s divine soul realm expert, or rather, he was being suppressed by the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s divine soul realm expert. Lin Tian¡¯s divine explosion talisman and Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist just now, although it didn¡¯t defeat Mo Yun, it still caused some damage to Mo Yun to a certain extent. It caused Mo Yun to be forced to retreat in front of the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s spirit soul realm experts, and he didn¡¯t have any extra strength to counterattack. ¡°Hahaha, that kid is finally dead.¡± ¡°My Heavenly Flame Talisman has the power of the early stage of the Spirit Soul Realm. A late-stage sea of souls realm cultivator actually dared to block it with his bare body. It¡¯s already good enough that he still has his corpse intact.¡± Mo Yun, who was in the middle of the fierce battle, saw Lin Tian unconscious, and Wang Shouyun, who was beside him with a sad expression. He thought that Lin Tian was already dead, so he laughed happily. However, he didn¡¯t feel proud for long before he was killed by a divine soul realm expert of the Heavenly Sword Sect with one sword strike. A silver light suddenly appeared, and a sharp sword qi pierced out, instantly piercing through Mo Yun¡¯s heart. Mo Yun¡¯s laughter ended abruptly, and he died outside the Heavenly Sword Sect just like that. ¡°Humph, a divine soul realm cultivator, bullied a sea of qi realm cultivator with so much strength, yet he¡¯s still so smug. How embarrassing.¡± At the same time, the other disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect finally arrived. They surrounded Wang Shouyun and asked, ¡°Young Master, are you okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine. But my brother, Lin Tian, is unconscious now. Help me take a look at his injuries.¡± Wang Shouyun quickly said to the people beside him. As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple of the heavenly sword sect took out a small bottle from his pocket and poured out a brown medicinal pill. This pill was the healing pill that Wang Shouyun had taken when he met Lin Tian in the demonic beast mountain range ¡ª the Golden Creation Pill. Wang Shouyun had already finished the golden creation pill when he was in the demonic beast mountain range, so he didn¡¯t have any pills for Lin Tian to take. Then, the Heavenly Sword sect disciple stuffed the golden creation pill into Lin Tian¡¯s mouth and took out a water bag for Lin Tian to swallow. Then, the gentle medicinal power exploded in Lin Tian¡¯s mouth and flowed into his body, healing the pain in his body. After a few breaths, Lin Tian¡¯s aura became much more stable under the treatment of the Golden Creation Pill. This meant that the golden creation pill was starting to take effect. While Lin Tian was healing, the Heavenly Sword sect disciple asked Wang Shouyun. ¡°Young master, who is this person?¡± ¡°This is Lin Tian. I met a genius cultivator while training in the demonic beast mountain range.¡± Then, Wang Shouyun introduced Lin Tian to everyone. ¡°Previously, I obtained a treasure in the demonic beast mountain range. After that, I was discovered by Ye Chenwu of the North Mystery Sect. He led five aura refining realm cultivators to chase after me.¡± ¡°After a period of chasing, I was finally surrounded by them and was heavily injured by the six of them.¡± ¡°Right then, Lin Tian suddenly appeared and defeated ye Chenwu and the others with just a few moves, saving me from ye Chenwu¡¯s hands.¡± ¡°At that time, I was heavily injured, so I asked Lin Tian to escort me back to the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± ¡°The journey was quite smooth, but when we returned to the foot of the Heavenly Sword Sect, we were ambushed by Mo Yun.¡± ¡°With brother Lin Tian¡¯s strength, he could have just left.¡± ¡°But for me, he chose to stay and fight against Mo Yun, and he even blocked a fatal blow for me.¡± ¡°If not for Lin Tian¡¯s bare body resisting Mo Yun¡¯s talisman, which was comparable to a divine soul realm attack, I might not be able to talk to you guys here anymore.¡± After listening to Wang Shouyun¡¯s story about Lin Tian, the heavenly sword gate disciples were instantly touched and could not help but sigh. ¡°There aren¡¯t many people in this world who are so kind and righteous. This Lin Tian is really a deep friend!¡± ¡°This Lin Tian is really a hero. He dares fight against a spiritual soul realm warrior at a young age.¡± ¡°This Lin Tian¡¯s talent is really incredible. He looks like he¡¯s only in his teens, but he has already cultivated to the late stage of the spiritual ocean realm. What¡¯s there to be afraid of?¡± At this time, Wang Shouyun looked at the disciples of the heavenly sword sect and said, ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about it there for now. Let¡¯s bring Lin Tian back to the sect for treatment.¡± ¡°Yes, Young Master.¡± With that, two disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect carried a stretcher over and gently placed Lin Tian into the stretcher. Thus, Lin Tian was carried into the heavenly sword sect by the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Chapter 27 - Red Mist Illusion Chapter 27 Red Mist Illusion The inner sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect was divided into the outer and inner sects. The inner sect was located in the deepest part of the Heavenly Sword Sect. It was also the mountain peak that Lin Tian saw before. Those were the residence of the sect master, elders, and personal disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect. Heavenly Sword Sect, Qingyang Peak. On the peak of Qingyang Peak, the trees were shaded, and a cave abode could be vaguely seen. This was the cave abode of the young sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun. At this moment, a fierce argument was going on inside Wang Shouyun¡¯s cave abode. ¡°Father, when I was in the demonic beast mountain range, I promised Lin Tian that as long as he escorted me safely back to the Heavenly Sword Sect, I would be given a precious demonic core. ¡°Now You¡¯re telling me that I shouldn¡¯t give him the demonic core of the savage beast from the desolate land. Aren¡¯t you asking me to be a person who doesn¡¯t keep his word? ¡°Growing up, you taught me to be a man of my word and principles,¡± an excited Wang Shouyun said. In the speech, Wang Shouyun could not help but dance in excitement to express their hearts of dissatisfaction, anger. ¡°But the demon nucleus that you want to send is the nucleus of a savage beast of wasteland that I had specially prepared for you, not any ordinary demon nucleus.¡± Unlike Wang Shouyun¡¯s emotional expression, his father, Wang Yuankun, spoke to him calmly. The desolate savage land beast that Wang Shouyun was talking about was a demonic beast that had the blood of a quasi-dragon in its body. If one used the soul that was nurtured from its demonic core, there was a chance that it would give birth to the qi of an actual dragon. This was something Wang Yuankun had specially found for his son, Wang Shouyun. In order to find this desolate land savage beast¡¯s demon core, Wang Yuankun had spent a lot of effort to find it. Moreover, a cultivator¡¯s soul in the Spiritual Ocean tier was related to breaking through to the Spiritual Soul tier later. A good soul could greatly increase the success rate of breaking through to the Spiritual Soul tier. This was also why Wang Yuankun disagreed that Wang Shouyun gave the desolate savage land beast as a reward to Lin Tian. ¡°But father, Lin Tian has already saved me twice. He is not just a bodyguard, but the benefactor who saved my life twice.¡± Wang Shouyun continued. He still wanted to fight for the best demon nucleus for Lin Tian. In fact, Wang Shouyun never originally planned to give the Savage Beast¡¯s demon nucleus to Lin Tian. He wanted to use his privilege to open the sect¡¯s treasury and let him choose a demon nucleus from it. However, when he met Mo Yun at the foot of the Heavenly Sword sect, Lin Tian didn¡¯t abandon him. This gesture alone deeply touched Wang Shouyun. Then, on the top of the mountain, it was Lin Tian who stepped forward and used his body to block the talisman that had the power of the Divine Soul Realm for him. If Lin Tian hadn¡¯t blocked the talisman, Wang Shouyun would have died on the top of the mountain. Although Lin Tian had blocked that talisman at that time, the enormous power, it had created terrified Wang Shouyun greatly. At that moment, Wang Shouyun had already regarded Lin Tian as a good friend of his. It was precisely because of this that Wang Shouyun wanted to give this savage beast to Lin Tian. ¡°Lin Tian is already at the late stage of the sea of souls realm. He is only one step away from breaking through to the spiritual soul realm. ¡°Thus, I feel he needs this Yellow Earth Savage Beast¡¯s demonic core more than I do.¡± ¡°After all, I am only at the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm now. I am still far from the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm.¡± ¡°I still have time to continue searching for the next desolate Earth Savage Beast¡¯s demonic core.¡± Wang Shouyun once again pleaded on behalf of Lin Tian. Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation talent was obviously much stronger than his own. Wang Shouyun felt Lin Tian should use the savage beast¡¯s demonic core more. Wang Yuankun looked at Wang Shouyun¡¯s sincere face and his originally determined heart started to waver. After a long silence, Wang Yuankun¡¯s heart softened. He shook his head gently and said softly. ¡°Forget it. Anyway, this savage beast core was meant for you. You can do whatever you want with it.¡± When he heard that Wang Yuankun agreed to give the savage beast core to Lin Tian, Wang Shouyun¡¯s tensed face immediately relaxed and revealed a happy smile. ¡°Just now, you said that Lin Tian saved you twice. I think we should find something else as a favor to save your life,¡± Wang Yuankun suddenly said. ¡°Huh? Father, what do you mean?¡± Wang Shouyun asked. ¡°That Savage Beast Core is the reward you promised him in the demonic beast mountain range. But, I don¡¯t think it can be used as a favor to save your life,¡± Wang Yuankun said lightly. ¡°Then, father, what do you think is suitable to accompany him? Open the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s treasure pavilion and let Lin Tian pick a treasure randomly? Or let Lin Tian go to the scripture pavilion and randomly pick an offensive and defensive secret manual?¡± After hearing Wang Yuankun¡¯s words, Wang Shouyun felt it made sense and said, ¡°You can¡¯t have either of these. How can my precious son¡¯s life be worth one or two treasures or one or two secret manuals?¡± Wang Yuankun shook his head again and continued, ¡°Do you still remember the floating illusionary realm?¡± ¡°Of course. Isn¡¯t that the secret realm that will open in three months?¡± Wang Shouyun answered. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you want to¡­¡± Wang Shouyun suddenly thought of something and immediately became excited. ¡°That¡¯s right. I plan to give Lin Tian a spot in the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s red mist illusory realm.¡± Before Wang Shouyun could finish his words, Wang Yuankun said directly, ¡°That would be even better. I believe that with his and my skills, we will be able to find many spiritual herbs in the red mist illusory realm, or even Heaven and Earth Numinous Treasures.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to be happy so early. This is just a thought of mine. You have to know that the quota for the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s Red Mist illusion is not something that I can decide alone. After that, I will hold a meeting and discuss with the elders to see if I can get a quota for Lin Tian¡¯s Red Mist illusion.¡± Wang Yuankun had directly poured cold water on Wang Shouyun. ¡°That¡¯s true,¡± Wang Shouyun said lightly. The red mist illusion was a mysterious space discovered in the Qing Xuan continent. No one knew how it had appeared. They only knew that the spiritual power in this illusion was extremely rich, at least three times higher than the outside world. In this illusion with rich spiritual power, many coveted spiritual treasures of heaven and earth were nourished. However, the quota to enter the red mist illusion had already been controlled by the top sects in the Qing Xuan Continent. Ordinary cultivators had no chance to enter the red mist illusion at all. Through the ranks of the sects, the quota to enter the red mist illusion would be allocated. The stronger the sect, the more quotas would be allocated. On the other hand, there would be fewer quotas, or even no quotas. At that moment, a disciple of the heavenly sword sect came to Qingyang Peak to report: ¡°Sect Master, Young Master, Lin Tian has awakened.¡± Chapter 28 - Heading To The Treasure Pavilion Chapter 28 Heading To The Treasure Pavilion After hearing the news that Lin Tian had woken up, Wang Shouyun immediately expressed that he would make a trip there first. In order to allow Lin Tian, who was seriously injured, to receive better treatment, Wang Shouyun directly arranged for him to stay at the Medicine Valley of the Heavenly Sword Sect. As the name implied, the Medicine Valley was the residence of the Medicine Masters of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the place where the medicine fields were planted. The Medicine Valley was located at the bottom of the valley between the peaks of the Sky Rapier Sect. Spiritual energy was gathered and enveloped the entire medicine valley through a formation. It was used to nourish the herbs in the medicinal fields and cultivate excellent spiritual herbs. Flat wooden houses were built in the Medicine Valley, middle of the medicinal fields. All the wooden houses were arranged neatly. In one of the tiny houses, Lin Tian was holding his head as he looked at the unfamiliar room. He said softly, ¡°Where is this place? I remember that before I fainted, I seemed to have blocked the talisman that Mo Yun threw out for Wang Shouyun.¡± ¡°Damn it, if it wasn¡¯t for the mission, I wouldn¡¯t be so stupid as to block the talisman.¡± Lin Tian had stood up and blocked the talisman for Wang Shouyun because he had a deep relationship with Wang Shouyun, nor was it to fulfill his duty of escorting him. He was simply afraid that if Wang Shouyun died, the system¡¯s mission would be announced as a failure. If that happened, he would lose an earth grade ten consecutive lucky draw. This was the last thing he wanted to see. With three lucky bronze draws and two black grade lucky draws, Lin Tian had transformed from body-strengthening trash to a late sea of Soul Realm Genius within a month. How terrifying would his strength increase if he obtained an earth-grade lucky draw item? Lin Tian, who had just woken up, did not know how long he had been unconscious. However, he felt that he had almost recovered. At the very least, it should not be a problem for him to get up and walk. Then, Lin Tian looked around and found that he was in a simple room. There was no furniture in the room. There was only a small bed, a small table, and the tea on the table. In addition, the room was filled with the pleasant smell of herbs, making people feel very comfortable. Lin Tian got off the bed with curiosity and came to the door. He stretched his head out to explore the surrounding environment. Then, Lin Tian saw green plants outside. Judging from the appearance of the plants, Lin Tian guessed that they should be newly developed seedlings of herbs. He also saw a few cultivators walking around in the herbal field. The clothes of those cultivators were similar to Wang Shouyun¡¯s. Therefore, Lin Tian guessed that this was Wang Shouyun¡¯s Heavenly Sword sect. ¡°Strange, the Heavenly Sword Sect should be sword-related. Why is there such a big herbal field here?¡± Looking at the surrounding herbal fields, Lin Tian muttered to himself. Just as Lin Tian was puzzled, he felt someone approaching him. Then, Lin Tian turned his head and saw that it was Wang Shouyun. ¡°Lin Tian, how are your injuries?¡± Wang Shouyun saw Lin Tian turn his head and ask. ¡°I¡¯m fine now. I should be able to fully recover after some rest.¡± ¡°By the way, is this the Heavenly Sword Sect?¡± ¡°How can there be such a medicinal field? It doesn¡¯t look like a sect that practices swordsmanship.¡± Lin Tian pointed at the medicinal fields not far away and asked. ¡°Of course, this is the heavenly sword sect¡¯s territory. Otherwise, why would I be here?¡± ¡°But this is the medicine master valley, which mainly grows spiritual herbs.¡± Wang Shouyun patiently explained. ¡°The spiritual herbs responsible for the daily cultivation of the disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect were specially developed by us. ¡°If the spiritual herbs of the disciples of our Heavenly Sword Sect were all purchased from outside, it would be a huge expense. ¡°No matter how rich our Heavenly Sword Sect is, we can¡¯t afford it.¡± After listening to Wang Shouyun¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but sigh, ¡°It seems that running a sect isn¡¯t that simple!¡± ¡°You should have no problem walking now, right?¡± Wang Shouyun asked. ¡°There¡¯s no problem walking now,¡± Lin Tian said. ¡°Are you taking me somewhere?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t we say before in the Demonic Beast mountain range? As long as you escort me back, I will give you a precious demonic nucleus as a reward.¡± ¡°I remember. For this demonic nucleus, I almost lost my life. Let¡¯s go. I¡¯ll take you to the treasure pavilion to pick out a demon core now.¡± Then, Lin Tian followed Wang Shouyun to the treasure pavilion of the Heavenly Sword Sect. After leaving the Medicine Valley, Lin Tian came to a martial arts practice field and saw the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples waving their swords. These heavenly sword sect disciples were not old, but their cultivation levels were mainly in the Qi Refinement realm. Except for some eight, nine, and ten-year-old children, these children¡¯s cultivation levels were all in the body strengthening realm. At that age, Lin Tian was only a child playing with mud. But these children had already entered the heavenly sword sect to cultivate. This was enough to prove that these children¡¯s cultivation talent was extraordinary. ¡°The Heavenly Sword sect is worthy of being a top power in the Qing Xuan Continent. They actually found so many talented cultivation seedlings.¡± Lin Tian could not help but sigh when he saw them. When they passed by the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s martial practice field, one of the heavenly sword sect disciples noticed Lin Tian and shouted, ¡°Look, it¡¯s Lin Tian.¡± For a moment, all the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivators on the martial practice field turned their heads and looked at Lin Tian. Lin Tian immediately felt awkward. Those Heavenly Sword Sect disciples looked at Lin Tian and wondered what they were talking about? They seemed very surprised. Just as Lin Tian was about to ask Wang Shouyun, two disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect walked up to him. Judging from their auras, Lin Tian could tell that these two disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were in the early stage of the Qi and Blood realm, two minor realms lower than Wang Shouyun. However, judging from their faces, they should be a few years older than Wang Shouyun. ¡°Young Master, is this Lin Tian beside you?¡±One of the Heavenly Sword sect disciples asked. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m planning to bring him to the treasure pavilion now,¡± Wang Shouyun said. After receiving confirmation, the two excitedly grabbed Lin Tian¡¯s hands. ¡°Brother Lin Tian, thank you so much for not backing down when facing a spiritual soul realm expert. You still risked your life to protect our young master.¡± ¡°You were so brave to be able to block even a spiritual soul realm talisman.¡± Lin Tian felt a little embarrassed when he heard their warm praise. He then said embarrassedly, ¡°I¡¯m not as powerful as you think. I¡¯m just a layman.¡± ¡°I did it because of the precious demon nucleus that Wang Shouyun promised.¡± ¡°Brother Lin Tian is indeed as Young Master had said. He is a very humble person.¡± After hearing what Lin Tian said, they thought that Lin Tian was just being humble. ¡°Senior brothers, Let¡¯s chat again in the future.¡± Wang Shouyun noticed Lin Tian did not want to continue, so he stood up and said. After such a small episode, Lin Tian understood why the heavenly sword sect disciples in the martial arts practice field were talking about him. It was because he had risked his life to save Wang Shouyun. After a long time, Lin Tian and Wang Shouyun finally arrived at the treasure pavilion. At this moment, Lin Tian saw a 100-meter tall building with a plaque hanging on the gate beam. There were three golden words carved on it: ¡°Treasure Pavilion.¡± Chapter 29 - Activating Earth-Grade Lucky Draw and Immortal Dharma Treasure Holy Pill Chapter 29 Activating Earth-Grade Lucky Draw and Immortal Dharma Treasure Holy Pill ¡°The big powers are really different. Even the sect¡¯s treasury is 100 meters tall.¡± Lin Tian looked up at the top of the treasure pavilion and said in surprise. ¡°Haha, it¡¯s still alright. Let¡¯s go in and pick out the demon nuclei.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you expect a demon nuclei to be waiting for you?¡± Wang Shouyun laughed softly. ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian followed Wang Shouyun into the treasure pavilion. After entering the treasure pavilion, Wang Shouyun brought Lin Tian to the secret chamber where the demon nuclei were stored. A dazzling array of demon nuclei were placed on rows of wooden racks and held on bronze discs below. Looking at the numerous demon nuclei, Lin Tian was not interested. Because he felt that none of the demon nuclei he saw was more powerful than the one in his hand. Even though the demon nucleus of the heaven-shocking python in his hand was obtained from the infant stage, it still suppressed these demon nuclei. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that Your Heavenly Sword sect only has these demon nuclei?¡± §ä§Ö Lin Tian glanced at Wang Shouyun and said coldly. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me I risked my life to escort you back and got such a useless demon core.¡± ¡°Of course not.¡± Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s unhappy mood, Wang Shouyun quickly said. Wang Shouyun, who had been saved twice by Lin Tian, now respected him very much. Naturally, he was very concerned about Lin Tian¡¯s mood. ¡°This is the lowest-grade demon core in the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s demon core warehouse. The quality and precious demon cores still need to go further in.¡± ¡°Also, before coming here, I have already prepared a precious demon core for you.¡± ¡°What kind of demon beast¡¯s demon core is that?¡± Hearing Wang Shouyun¡¯s words, Lin Tian¡¯s interest was immediately piqued. ¡°Have you heard of the Desolate Land Savage Beast? That is a demon beast that contains the blood of the Yalong¡­¡± Wang Shouyun walked into the treasure vault while introducing the desolate land Savage Beast¡¯s demon core to Lin Tian. Soon, Wang Shouyun brought Lin Tian to the most profound secret chamber. The number of demon cores here was much less than he had seen earlier. There were only six rows of wooden shelves, and each wooden shelf had four demon cores. Each demon core here exuded an extraordinary power, like a ferocious beast. Looking at these precious demon cores, Lin Tian revealed a satisfied smile and said softly, ¡°These demon cores are the right ones. This is the reason why I came to the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± At that moment, Lin Tian felt that the heaven-shocking python in his hand could no longer be taken out. He approached the demon core and carefully selected it. Wang Shouyun held a pale yellow demon core and came before Lin Tian. He said, ¡°This is the desolate land savage beast demon core that I mentioned. I spent a lot of effort to get it for you.¡± Hearing that, Lin Tian turned his attention to the desolate land savage beast¡¯s demon core in Wang Shouyun¡¯s hand. He could faintly hear a ferocious beast roar. ¡°This is indeed extraordinary!¡± After seeing it for the first time, Lin Tian was already moved by this demon core. ¡°Alright, I¡¯ve decided to choose this one.¡± After choosing, Lin Tian did not return to the house in Medicine Valley. Instead, he asked Wang Shouyun to arrange a quiet room for him. The houses in Medicine Valley were too crowded, and it was not good for Lin Tian to open the system. Wang Shouyun did not have any objections to Lin Tian¡¯s request. He immediately arranged for Lin Tian to stay at his own Qingyang Peak. Qingyang Peak was specially assigned to Wang Shouyun by the Heavenly Sword Sect. He was the only one living in the cave abode. It was very suitable for Lin Tian¡¯s quiet request. Heavenly Sword Sect, Qingyang Peak. At this moment, Lin Tian had already arrived at the new residence of the Heavenly Sword Sect. To prevent others from disturbing Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation, he arranged a private courtyard for Lin Tian. In the room, after confirming that there was no one around, Lin Tian planned to start a new lucky draw round. As he silently chanted the system in his heart, the familiar virtual screen appeared again in front of Lin Tian¡¯s eyes. Lin Tian had already opened the system¡¯s storage space interface. In addition to the five hundred spirit stones he had drawn previously, there was an additional orange earth grade ten-win lottery ticket. ¡°I wonder what good stuff the earth grade ten-win lottery will bring me this time.¡± Filled with anticipation, Lin Tian started the earth grade lottery. The orange lottery ticket turned into light particles and dispersed, and a small red flame shot out. The tiny flame turned into a magnificent Phoenix in the next second and flew out, hovering on the virtual screen. Then, prizes jumped out, emitting orange light particles, and the system¡¯s lottery notification sounded. [Congratulations, host, for obtaining the immortal cultivation method: innate spirit transformation scroll] ¡°D*mn, the first draw directly gave out the immortal cultivation method!¡± Hearing the words ¡°Immortal cultivation technique,¡± Lin Tian was stunned and excited. Before the draw, Lin Tian had thought he would get a high-grade prize in the earth-grade lottery. Still, he had never thought that an immortal cultivation technique would appear. [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a heaven-grade magic treasure-phoenix wing blade] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a heaven-ranked magic treasure-dragon pattern sword] (Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a holy pill-hundred medicinal rejuvenation pill] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining a hundred years of cultivation] [Lucky draw items have been distributed to the storage space. Host, please take note!) Because the immortal cultivation technique was drawn first, Lin Tian ignored the following prizes. At this moment, Lin Tian only had the immortal cultivation technique in his mind. After the lottery, Lin Tian could not wait to open the storage space. ¡°An immortal cultivation technique, two heaven-rank magic treasures, a saint pill, and 600 years of cultivation. ¡°This is indeed the earth-rank ten lottery draw. The items drawn are high-level. If it is not the word ¡®immortal,¡¯ the beginning of the word ¡®god¡¯ is the beginning of the word ¡®saint.¡± Looking at the prize icon emitting orange light particles, Lin Tianxin smiled in satisfaction. Then, Lin Tian spent time carefully looking at the detailed information about these prizes. Just as Lin Tian was carefully looking at the prizes, he suddenly realized that his 600 years of cultivation could not be stored. Now, it had turned into a pure and gentle spiritual power that filled Lin Tian¡¯s body, pushing his cultivation to the peak of the spiritual ocean realm. However, because Lin Tian had not yet cultivated his spirit soul and had not broken through to the spirit soul realm, his cultivation was stuck at the peak of the Sea of Souls Realm. Since the 600 years of cultivation, spiritual power was surging and flowing in his body. It triggered his injuries that had not fully recovered, making him feel intense pain. Right now, Lin Tian felt as if his body was being torn apart, and the intense pain made his facial expression involuntarily squeeze together. He gritted his teeth and endured it. Without overthinking, Lin Tian immediately took out the holy pill-hundred herbs rejuvenation pill and consumed it. He mobilized his spiritual energy to refine the pill. When Lin Tian¡¯s spiritual energy stimulated the holy pill, a gentle force was like a river, quickly healing Lin Tian¡¯s injuries. Just now, Lin Tian had seen the information about this holy pill. Its greatest effect was its super healing ability. Even if your heart was pierced through and you were the only one still alive, this holy pill could still pull you back from the gates of Hell. With such a powerful healing ability, it was a piece of cake to treat the injuries on his body. After a few breaths, he could no longer feel any pain, but the power of the holy pill continued to burst forth. Lin Tian immediately sat cross-legged and circulated the ¡°heaven and earth holy technique¡± to refine the power of the holy pill. Chapter 30 - Do I Still Need To Comprehend The Systems Cultivation Technique? Chapter 30 Do I Still Need To Comprehend The System¡¯s Cultivation Technique? After an unknown period of time, Lin Tian had completely refined the remaining power of the sacred pill, and the spiritual power in his body had already been perfected, unable to increase any further. After treating all the injuries on his body, Lin Tian turned his gaze towards the first cultivation technique, the Innate Soul Formation Technique. After checking the introduction of the system, this immortal cultivation technique, the Innate Soul Formation Technique, could improve the innate aptitude of the cultivator. It could also enhance the spiritual power to a certain extent, thus increasing the cultivator¡¯s strength. However, this immortal cultivation technique had a special feature, which was that the lower the realm, the lower the difficulty of improving one¡¯s innate aptitude. On the other hand, the higher the realm, the harder it would be to improve one¡¯s innate talent. Therefore, this immortal cultivation technique was the best opportunity when one was in the body strengthening stage. Unfortunately, Lin Tian had already cultivated to the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm and missed the best opportunity to cultivate. In order to not drag this out, Lin Tian planned to start cultivating this immortal cultivation technique before he broke through to the spiritual soul realm. Then, Lin Tian looked at the virtual screen in front of him, looked at the immortal cultivation technique icon, and clicked it open. Following that, an unfamiliar memory flooded Lin Tian¡¯s mind. Lin Tian knew that this was teaching him an immortal cultivation technique, so he didn¡¯t deliberately resist him. Before long, all the incantations of the immortal cultivation technique, as well as the meridians and routes of the circulation of spiritual power, were all engraved in Lin Tian¡¯s mind. Lin Tian recalled the incantations in his mind, and according to the routes of the circulation of the spirit energy, he mobilized the spirit energy in his dantian. In the next second, magical power was emitted from Lin Tian¡¯s body. It was a white light mist. The white light mist slowly enveloped Lin Tian¡¯s body. Lin Tian immediately felt as if he was trapped in a swamp, and it was difficult for him to breathe. He also felt his entire body burning, as if his entire body was burning, but this feeling quickly disappeared, along with the white mist that enveloped Lin Tian. At the same time, Lin Tian immediately withdrew from the cultivation state of the [Innate Soul Formation Technique). After he withdrew, Lin Tian felt that his body was covered in sweat, and his entire body was sticky. However, Lin Tian didn¡¯t think too much about this sticky feeling. He was even more curious about why he had exited from the cultivation state of the (Innate Soul Formation Technique]? Thus, he said to the virtual screen in front of him, ¡°System, why did I exit from the Cultivation State?¡± ¡°It¡¯s like a sudden pause while cultivating the [Innate Soul Formation Technique]¡± ¡°Is there something wrong with this immortal cultivation technique?¡± Very quickly, the system¡¯s electronic synthesized voice sounded in Lin Tian¡¯s mind: (All the items in the system are fine. The reason you suddenly quit cultivating is that you haven¡¯t comprehended this immortal cultivation technique.] ¡°The cultivation technique is given by the system. Do I need to comprehend it by myself?¡± Hearing the system¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian was very surprised. ¡°Isn¡¯t this the kind of technique that can be learned at once? ¡°And those cultivation techniques and martial arts secret manuals that you gave me before, aren¡¯t they all learned at once? Lin Tian clearly remembered that when he had just obtained the ¡°Heaven and Earth sacred technique¡± and the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist¡±, he could directly cultivate them after he had passed down the cultivation technique and martial arts. He never had to repeatedly read the cultivation techniques and martial techniques manuals, and he didn¡¯t have to spend too much effort on them. [This is because the host¡¯s comprehension ability is stronger than others. Because you have a high comprehension ability, you are able to learn other cultivation techniques smoothly without any obstacles.) (But this ¡°Innate Soul Formation Technique¡± is an immortal cultivation technique, and it isn¡¯t something that other mortal cultivation techniques and martial techniques can compare to.) ¡°The difficulty of learning this Innate Soul Formation Technique, is far higher than the cultivation technique that the host had previously drawn.¡± ¡°You mean that my cultivation aptitude is extremely poor, but my comprehension ability is extremely strong!¡± The system¡¯s words once again shocked Lin Tian. Ever since he came to this world, he had never realized that he actually had the advantage of having an extremely strong comprehension ability. This made him happy, thinking that he was not a loser at the beginning. After all, according to the system, he only needed one second to comprehend the cultivation techniques and secret manuals below the immortal path. This was a super powerful talent! Then, Lin Tian put his mind on the technique again. Right now, Lin Tian needed to learn this immortal cultivation technique even more, because his cultivation talent was still very poor. And this ¡°Innate Soul Formation Technique¡± was a cultivation technique that could improve this shortcoming of his. One had to know that Lin Tian could only cultivate the Sea of Souls realm because of the thousand years of cultivation that he had drawn from the system. ¡°Good, since the system said that my comprehension ability is super strong, and it drew this cultivation technique for me, it means that I can definitely learn this.¡± Lin Tian murmured softly. Thinking of this, Lin Tian continued to try to cultivate the innate soul formation technique. Then, Lin Tian started to fight against the innate soul formation technique. He decided that if he could not master the innate soul formation technique, he would not step out of this room. In the beginning, Lin Tian only entered the cultivation state for one to two minutes. As Lin Tian continued to try, the time he entered the cultivation state lasted for more than ten minutes, half an hour, then one hour¡­ As the sun set and the moon rose, five days quickly passed. During those five days, Lin Tian¡¯s temperament constantly evolved. Blood-colored sludge kept discharging from his body and adhered to the surface of his skin, emitting a bloody stench. However, Lin Tian was immersed in cultivation and did not feel the changes in his body. On the fifth day, at noon, Lin Tian was finally able to circulate the innate soul formation skill for a cycle. This meant that Lin Tian¡¯s ¡°Innate soul formation skill¡± had already started to learn the basics. Lin Tian slowly opened his eyes that had been closed for a long time, and his eyes couldn¡¯t help but become sharp. If Lin Yu¡¯er was here, she would have noticed that Lin Tian¡¯s eyes had become much brighter. ¡°This ¡®innate soul formation technique¡¯ is indeed powerful. Now, I can sense the surrounding spiritual energy even more acutely, and I can use all kinds of cultivation techniques with ease.¡± Lin Tian carefully sensed the changes in his body and muttered to himself. ¡°Wait, what is this smell?¡± At this moment, Lin Tian felt the stench emanating from his body. He immediately went to the well outside the courtyard to fetch water to wash the dirt off his body. During the process of washing, Lin Tian guessed that the dirt should be the impurities in his body, which was the ¡°culprit¡± that caused his cultivation difficulties. After washing off the dirt on his body, Lin Tian returned to his room again. This time, he did not continue to cultivate the innate soul formation technique, but took out the savage beast demon core of the desolate land. Lin Tian was now planning to refine the demon core, nurture his spirit soul, and prepare to break through to the Spirit Soul Realm. Chapter 31 - Refining Demon Core and Cultivating Spirit Soul Chapter 31 Refining Demon Core and Cultivating Spirit Soul After returning to his room, Lin Tian took out the demon core of the savage beast of the desolate land he had just obtained. Savage beasts of the desolate land were not found in the Azure Mystic Continent. This was a demon beast unique to the great desolate continent. Of course, if a powerful cultivator had tamed it, it would be another story. After all, there were countless sects and powers in these vast nine regions of the continent. Among them, some sects mainly tamed demon beasts. This savage beast of the desolate land was huge in size, and its four limbs were thick and strong. Usually, when it walked on the ground, it would cause a weak earthquake within a mile. Although it didn¡¯t have scales to protect its body, its skin was rough, its flesh was thick, and it possessed extraordinary defensive power. Even if it was just a newborn savage beast cub, cultivators below the Sea of Souls realm couldn¡¯t break its skin, let alone adult savage beasts of the desolate land who had experienced countless battles. And the savage beasts were able to contend for hegemony in the great desolate continent. Besides its super-strong defense, there was another reason. That was that its bloodline contained the Yalong True Blood, which allowed it to naturally produce pressure on other low-species demon beasts, intimidating other demon beasts. When he got the savage beast nucleus of the desolate land, Wang Shouyun introduced the origin of this demon nucleus to Lin Tian. According to Wang Shouyun, this savage beast¡¯s demon core was found by the leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Shouyun¡¯s father, Wang Yuankun, who had gone to the great desolate continent to find it. To refine the demon core, one needed to pour their own spiritual energy into it. Then the spiritual energy would be converted into strands of special energy, which would be fed back to the cultivator. Then, the cultivator would channel the special energy fed back by the demon core into his dantian, allowing the special energy to gather and condense in a single point. Then a spirit soul would be born. Very soon, Lin Tian began circulating the ¡°heaven and earth sacred technique.¡± He mobilized the spirit sea in his dantian, which was like a vast ocean, and rich spiritual energy surged through Lin Tian¡¯s meridians. Then, Lin Tian used both hands to release spiritual energy toward the Savage Beast¡¯s demonic core. Under the guidance of the Spiritual Energy, the Savage Beast¡¯s demonic core slowly floated into the air. However, other than that, there was no other phenomenon. It was as if Lin Tian was merely guiding a pale yellow bead to float into the air. After a few breaths, under Lin Tian¡¯s constant infusion of spiritual energy, the demonic core of the savage beast in the air finally showed some changes. The demonic core of the savage beast in the air suddenly emitted a powerful aura and let out a series of low roars. It was as if the savage beast was slowly waking up With the appearance of the powerful aura, Lin Tian could also feel the power returned by the savage beast¡¯s demonic core. Lin Tian understood this was the beginning of refining the beast¡¯s demonic core. Without overthinking, Lin Tian absorbed the energy from the desolate land savage beast as if he was absorbing spiritual energy. He slowly guided the energy back into his dantian and formed the embryonic form of the spirit soul. Two hours later, in Lin Tian¡¯s dantian, a pale white energy ball appeared on the sea-like spirit sea. This was the embryonic form of the spirit soul. If the leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun, knew that Lin Tian had created the embryonic form of the spirit soul, he would definitely think of a way to keep him in the Heavenly Sword sect for only two hours. In the Qing Xuan Continent, the fastest genius to cultivate the spirit soul would take a month. However, Lin Tian only spent two hours. This proved that Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation talent was among the top geniuses in the Qing Xuan Continent. Perhaps it was because Lin Tian had already reached the entry-level of the innate soul formation skill, which significantly improved his innate talent and allowed him to form the embryonic form of the spirit soul so quickly. At the same time, an aura also appeared on Lin Tian¡¯s body, which was the aura of a powerful demonic beast. The spiritual energy emitted from Lin Tian¡¯s body actually floated into the sky, drawing the outline of a powerful and domineering demonic beast. ¡°This should be the true dragon qi that Wang Shouyun mentioned before.¡± Lin Tian opened his eyes and said softly as he felt the powerful and domineering aura. Lin Tian withdrew the spiritual power from the desolate land savage beast. After refining it for a period of time, Lin Tian already felt a wave of fatigue, so he decided to take a break for now. At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly remembered that he had obtained two precious artifacts from the lottery, so he wanted to try them during his break. Lin Tian stretched out his right hand and silently chanted ¡°phoenix wing blade¡± in his heart. A three-finger-wide, one-meter-long long blade appeared in his hand. Today, Lin Tian carefully observed the phoenix-shaped blade he had just obtained. The knife maker picked up a tragically thorned phoenix that was brass in color. The knife¡¯s handle was carved with feathers, which increased the friction between the user and the knife. It made the user¡¯s grip stronger and added some beauty to the knife. The back of the knife was straight, and the tip had a slight curve. Overall, it looked strong and powerful, even stronger than Mo Yun¡¯s two long knives. Then, Lin Tian held the knife tightly and mobilized the spiritual energy from the past, attaching it to the knife¡¯s body. As the spiritual energy was channeled into the blade, the phoenix-winged blade gave off an intimidating aura, and a faint cry of a Phoenix could be heard. Lin Tian slashed at the air a few times. The sound of the blade cutting through the air could be heard, and a few streaks of blade energy could be seen with the naked eye. This surprised Lin Tian a little. After all, he had never trained in blade techniques before but could produce a blade. However, the Taotie was very transparent, and only a thin shadow of the saber could be seen with the naked eye. ¡°Damn, I can actually produce saber qi. Is it because of my amazing comprehension ability?¡± Lin Tian looked at the phoenix-shaped saber in his hand and murmured softly. This time, he found another use for his comprehension ability. Then, Lin Tian put away the phoenix-winged saber and took out another treasured weapon, the dragon-patterned sword. Scales appeared on the body of the dragon pattern sword. The head of the dragon pattern sword was a brass dragon head. The dragon pattern sword was three fingers wide and 1.3 meters long. This dragon pattern sword was slightly longer than the Phoenix Wing Saber. Lin Tian wanted to try and see if his comprehension ability could be used in the way of the sword. He wanted to use the dragon pattern sword to release sword qi. Lin Tian mobilized the spiritual power in his body and waved a few more swords in the air. As Lin Tian waved the dragon pattern sword in his hand, a wonderful feeling arose from his heart. It was as if the dragon pattern sword in his hand was a part of his body. Lin Tian rotated his right hand, and silver light and cold shadow appeared. Sharp Sword Qi suddenly rose from the dragon pattern sword. For a moment, a sharp sword Qi appeared around Lin Tian. ¡°As expected, I¡¯m a genius. I drew sword Qi on my first qi cultivation.¡± After a while of practice, Lin Tian stopped and said excitedly. Through the Phoenix Wing Saber and the Dragon Pattern Sword, Lin Tian confirmed that his super comprehension ability could be used on divine weapons. At this moment, Wang Shouyun came to the courtyard to look for Lin Tian. He was immediately attracted by the dragon pattern sword in Lin Tian¡¯s hand and stared at the dragon pattern sword. ¡°Lin Tian, this sword of yours isn¡¯t that simple! Its pressure is already comparable to the sect-guarding treasure sword of our Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± Wang Shouyun exclaimed in surprise. Lin Tian had never seen any famous swords, so he didn¡¯t feel the power of this dragon vein sword. It wasn¡¯t until he heard Wang Shouyun say that the dragon vein sword was on the same level as the sect-guarding treasure sword of the Heavenly Sword sect that he understood how powerful the dragon vein sword given by the system was. Moreover, this was a divine weapon like the dragon vein sword, and he also had a phoenix wing saber. ¡°Why have you come to see me?¡± Lin Tian put away the dragon vein sword and asked. Wang Shouyun was about to ask Lin Tian if he could let him try the dragon vein sword, but when he saw Lin Tian put it away, he revealed a hint of disappointment. Then, Wang Shouyun said, ¡°The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect asked me to bring you to see him.¡± ¡°The sect master wants to see me?¡± Lin Tian asked with slight surprise. Chapter 32 - Heavenly Sword Sects Main Hall Chapter 32 Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s Main Hall Heavenly Sword Sect, Sky-reaching peak. Sky-reaching peak was the highest peak among all the peaks of the Heavenly Sword Sect. It shot straight into the sky and pierced into the clouds above. Unlike the other peaks, the sky-reaching peak had no spiritual plants. The entire mountain peak was steep, and from afar, it looked like a sharp sword. On the top of the peak, there wasn¡¯t a single tree or flower. There was only a majestic palace, and that was the main hall of the Heavenly Sword Sect. In front of the main hall was a vast square, and on the square stood two huge stone sculptures of demonic beasts. The demonic beasts looked mighty, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, giving off a domineering aura for the entire day. Behind the stone sculptures of demonic beasts, there was a wide staircase. The lowest stone steps were neat and orderly, with thousands of stone steps leading straight to the main hall of the Heavenly Sword Sect. The main hall of the Heavenly Sword sect was dark gray in color, giving off a solemn aura. At the entrance of the main hall, there were two large and rough stone pillars. On the side of the stone, pillars were carvings of ferocious demonic beasts, exuding a powerful and domineering aura, causing everyone who saw it to feel a sense of intimidation. At this moment, twelve cultivators in gray robes stood in the main hall of the sect. The youngest among these twelve people was in his thirties, and there were also a few elders. These people all exuded a powerful aura, with the lowest cultivation level at the middle stage of the spiritual soul realm. That day, the Heavenly Sword sect¡¯s spiritual soul realm elder who killed Mo Yun was also among them. These twelve cultivators were elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect. In front of them was the master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun. In the depths of the hall, there was a nine-meter-high platform. Wang Ningkun was sitting on the sect master¡¯s seat. At this moment, Wang Shaoyun and Lin Tian slowly walked in from the entrance of the sect hall. ¡°Damn, Wang Shouyun, Your Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s sect hall is so domineering!¡± Tomorrow, he curiously looked at the sect hall¡¯s environment and said slowly. Today, he was like a farmer who had just entered the city, feeling extremely curious about the heavenly sword sect¡¯s main hall. ¡°Lin Tian, the sect leader, and elders are still in the sect¡¯s main hall. Quiet down for a moment,¡± Wang Shouyun reminded him softly. Hearing this, Lin Tian immediately followed quietly. Very soon, Lin Tian followed Wang Shouyun to the bottom of the high platform in front of the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s sect leader, Wang Yuankun. ¡°Disciple Wang Shouyun greets the sect master,¡± Wang Shouyun said respectfully to Wang Yuankun. When there were outsiders, Wang Shouyun would address Wang Yuankun respectfully. When the two of them were alone, they would address each other as father and son. ¡°Junior Lin Tian greets the sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± Lin Tian also greeted Wang Yuankun respectfully. Wang Shouyun had especially reminded Lin Tian before coming to the main hall of the sect. ¡°No need for formalities!¡± Wang Yunkun said faintly from the high platform. At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly noticed the old man next to him. He was the Spirit Soul Realm expert who had defeated Mo Yun that day. Then, he smiled at him and said happily, ¡°Aren¡¯t you the old man from the Heavenly Sword sect who appeared when Wang Shouyun and I were being chased by Mo Yun?¡± ¡°Haha, that¡¯s right. That¡¯s me.¡± The elder of the Heavenly Sword sect laughed out loud. He wasn¡¯t angry when Lin Tian called him an old man and continued, ¡°But the disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect usually don¡¯t call me an old man. They call me Elder Huang.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Elder Huang. This junior is too presumptuous.¡± Lin Tian said immediately, thinking, ¡°This elder Huang has a good temper. He did not hold it against me because of this.¡± ¡°I guess you are curious about the young man that Yun ¡®er brought here. Why would he bring an outsider into the main hall of the sect?¡± Wang Yuankun said to the people below. Hearing the sect master of the Heavenly Sword sect speak, Lin Tian no longer chatted with Elder Huang. He turned his head to look at Wang Yunkun on the high platform. The other elders beside him were curious about Lin Tian¡¯s identity because they didn¡¯t come out when they fought against Mo Yun. ¡°This young man¡¯s name is Lin Tian. When Yun ¡®er was training in the demonic beast mountain range, she was besieged. It was Lin Tian who saved her.¡± ¡°After that, he escorted Yun ¡®er, who was severely injured, back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. A few days ago, he resisted the elder of the North Mystery Sect, Mo Yun, to buy time for Yun ¡®er to escape.¡± ¡°It can be said that if it wasn¡¯t for Lin Tian, the once-in-a-thousand-years genius disciple of our heavenly sword sect would have died just like that.¡± Looking at Lin Tian below the high platform, Wang Yuankun recounted his achievements. In his heart, Wang Yuankun was truly grateful to Lin Tian for saving his son¡¯s life. After the elders in the sect hall heard about Lin Tian¡¯s deeds, they all praised him. ¡°Little brother Lin Tian, I¡¯m grateful to you for helping our young master so many times.¡± ¡°Interesting. I didn¡¯t expect that this kid was so young and so brave. He actually dared to confront that old bastard Mo Yun head-on. Hahaha.¡± ¡°The younger generation is indeed formidable. I remember that Mo Yun of the North Mystery Sect is at the late stage of the spiritual soul realm. To survive a few moves from him, he must be quite capable!¡± At this moment, an elder of the Heavenly Sword sect stood out and asked, ¡°Sect leader, May I know what realm this little brother Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation is at now?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. I¡¯m also quite curious about his cultivation realm. He was actually able to resist Mo Yun and not die.¡± ¡°Who isn¡¯t curious about this? Everyone present, who can face a late-stage spiritual soul realm cultivator at his cultivation level?¡± The Elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect said their own things. For a time, the main hall of the sect became noisy and lively. ¡°Quiet. The dignified elder of the Heavenly Sword sect is making a big fuss. Isn¡¯t this a joke for Lin Tian?¡± Wang Yuankun looked at the elders below the stage and said in a serious tone. Seeing that his sect master was about to lose his temper, the elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect immediately stopped talking. Lin Tian could only respond with a smile. ¡°Lin Tian, can you tell me about your current cultivation level?¡± Wang Yuankun didn¡¯t directly tell Lin Tian about his cultivation level. Instead, he asked Lin Tian about it. Wang Yuankun naturally already knew about Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation level. However, Lin Tian¡¯s performance was truly astonishing. Wang Yuankun believed Lin Tian would definitely be a genius no weaker than himself in the future and had already regarded him as a cultivator of the same level. Therefore, Lin Tian¡¯s cultivation level still had to be inquired about. ¡°This is nothing. I am now at the late stage of the spiritual ocean tier. I am just a step away from breaking through to the spiritual soul tier to nurture my soul.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s expression was calm as he said indifferently. However, the elder of the heavenly sword gate beside him was not calm after hearing that. His expression suddenly changed, and he stared at Lin Tian with his mouth agape. He was greatly shocked in his heart. ¡°This Lin Tian looks young, but he¡¯s already at the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm!¡± ¡°This cultivation talent is even more amazing than young master!¡± ¡°Young master has already reached the late stage of the Sea of Souls Realm at eighteen, and he is already a once-in-a-thousand years genius of the Heavenly Sword Sect. This Lin Tian is even more monstrous!¡± After Lin Tian finished speaking, other than elder Huang, who had seen Lin Tian fight, Wang Shouyun, who had been saved twice by Lin Tian, and the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun, everyone else in the main hall was discussing Lin Tian in surprise. Wang Yuankun, who was on the high platform, saw the situation below and felt it was time to get down to business. He said, ¡°In order to repay Lin Tian for saving Yun ¡®er from danger twice, I plan to grant Lin Tian a spot to go to the red mist illusory realm.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the elders, who had been discussing animatedly a second ago, fell silent in the next second. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. At this moment, all the elders of the Heavenly Sword sect turned their gazes to Wang Yuankun, who was standing on the high platform. Their faces were filled with shock, and their hearts were incomparably shocked. Chapter 33 - The Red Mist Illusion Quota Chapter 33 The Red Mist Illusion Quota Heavenly Sword Sect, the peak of Tongtian Peak. The atmosphere of the Heavenly Sword Sect was terrifyingly calm in the main hall. This was all because the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun, suddenly said that he would give the quota of the Red Mist illusion to an outsider, Lin Tian. At this moment, an old elder of the Heavenly Sword sect stood out and said with a solemn face, ¡°Sect master, it¡¯s true that Lin Tian saved young master¡¯s life, but isn¡¯t it against the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s interests to use the quota of the Red Mist illusory realm as a reward?¡± As the person involved, Lin Tian felt a little confused. He seemed to be in trouble with the Heavenly Sword sect, but he had no idea what had happened? ¡®What is the quota of the Red Mist illusory realm that the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s sect master just mentioned?¡¯ Lin Tian pondered. Unable to figure it out, Lin Tian turned his head to look at Wang Shouyun, thinking that he should know something. However, just as he turned his head, he saw Wang Shouyun¡¯s calm expression. Lin Tian then thought, ¡°Wang Shouyun actually has such a calm expression. He definitely knows something.¡± At this moment, a female elder of the Heavenly Sword sect also stood out to express her opinion on this matter, saying, ¡°I also feel that the quota for the Red Mist illusion should not be given to an outsider. All the elders present, including the sect leader, when they were young, which one of them was not a top prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sect?¡± ¡°When everyone was a disciple of the heavenly sword sect, they had once obtained a quota for the Red Mist illusion.¡± ¡°As for what kind of world is inside the Red Mist illusion, everyone has a clear idea.¡± ¡°Everyone here has more or less gained a lot from the Red Mist illusion. The sect leader even obtained a connate numinous treasure and broke through to the Divine Soul Realm.¡± ¡°Giving the spot in the Red Mist illusion to an outsider means that our heavenly sword sect might lose a divine soul realm expert.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Xie Ling is right. We can¡¯t just give up the spot in the Red Mist illusion.¡± After the Heavenly Sword Sect elder Xie Ling finished speaking, the other elders with the same thought immediately chimed in. Wang Yuankun, who was in the sect leader¡¯s seat, saw the opposing voices and thought that this matter wouldn¡¯t work out. He sighed softly and planned to announce that this proposal was canceled. He would think of other plans to thank Lin Tian for his kindness. ¡°I think there¡¯s no problem with the sect leader¡¯s proposal. It¡¯s not a big deal to give the spot in the Red Mist illusory realm to Lin Tian.¡± Just as Wang Yuankun was about to speak, elder Huang, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up. ¡°Old Man Huang, it¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t like me usually. But now, with this Red Mist illusion, you still want to throw a tantrum and deliberately go against me?¡± Seeing elder Huang suddenly agree to Wang Yuankun¡¯s suggestion, Xie Ling immediately shouted at elder Huang. As she spoke, Xie Ling¡¯s hands did not stop. She rolled up her sleeves, looking as if she wanted to fight with elder Huang. ¡°Xie Ling, don¡¯t be rash. Elder Huang is only expressing his opinion.¡± Seeing this, the elder beside Xie Ling hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. Lin Tian looked at the four of them holding onto Xie Ling, but he could not seem to stop her. He could not help but think to himself, ¡°This female elder is so fierce. She fights with each other at the slightest disagreement. The Sky Sword sect is really interesting.¡± On the other side, elder Huang ignored Xie Ling¡¯s emotions and continued to say, ¡°Lin Tian saved the young master¡¯s two life and death situations. I think everyone understands this and agrees.¡± ¡°And the young master is of great significance to the Sky Sword sect. He has reached the late stage of the Qi and blood realm at the age of eighteen. He has broken the record of the youngest Qi and blood realm in the Sky Sword sect. He is the sect leader two years earlier than the previous record holder.¡± ¡°With the young master¡¯s talent in training, it is only a matter of time before he breaks through the bottleneck of the spiritual soul realm and breaks through to the Spirit Ascension realm. It is not impossible for him to break through to the genuine force realm.¡± ¡°Thus, the young master¡¯s future is closely related to the future of the Heavenly Sword sect.¡± ¡°This time, Lin Tian did not save the young master¡¯s life. Most of it is the future of the Heavenly Sword sect. is his contribution not worth getting a spot in the Red Mist Illusion Realm?¡± After hearing old Huang¡¯s words, some of the elders who disagreed earlier started to waver. They began to agree with old Huang¡¯s thoughts. The noisy Xie Ling also quieted down. Lin Tian, who was involved, felt embarrassed about this. His face couldn¡¯t help but turn red in embarrassment as he thought to himself, ¡°The reason why I saved Wang Shouyun back then was purely because of the system¡¯s mission. I¡¯m really embarrassed to be praised by Old Huang.¡± In the end, elder Huang added, ¡°And the disciples who go to the ephemeral illusion might not be able to find any great opportunities. It¡¯s just like how Xie Ling came out empty-handed when she was injured.¡± Elder Huang¡¯s words once again aroused Xie Ling¡¯s anger. She wanted to pounce on elder Huang again, and she kept saying, ¡°He deliberately went against me. If I don¡¯t teach him a lesson, how can I still be called Xie Ling!¡± ¡°Xie Ling, stop messing around. This is the main hall of the sect. There are outsiders here.¡± The elder next to Xie Ling stopped her again. ¡°Is there any other elder who wants to express his opinion?¡± Wang Yuankun looked at the elder below the stage and said slowly. ¡°I still don¡¯t agree.¡± As soon as Wang Yuankun finished speaking, Xie Ling said directly. ¡°I don¡¯t agree either.¡± The other elders who disagreed also stood out and echoed. In the end, five of the twelve elders held a different opinion. The four elders chose to abstain and maintain a neutral opinion. Only elder Huang and the other three elders supported Wang Yuankun¡¯s proposal. Seeing this, Wang Yuankun didn¡¯t say anything more and directly announced, ¡°There¡¯s no need to vote for me. So, Lin Tian, I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ll think of other ways to make it up to you later.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter. I¡¯ve already gotten what I wanted.¡± Lin Tian said embarrassedly. After listening for so long, he was still in a daze. However, it was not important anymore. He had already gotten the demon core this time, and the other things were just passing by. At this moment, Wang Shouyun, who had been watching calmly, suddenly walked out and said, ¡°Lin Tian saved my life, so I¡¯ll give him my spot in the Red Mist illusion.¡± ¡°This way, he won¡¯t be able to take the spots of the other disciples.¡± ¡°Shouyun, are you crazy? If you miss the Red Mist illusion, you won¡¯t have a chance next time.¡± Xie Ling immediately shouted. Lin Tian was also confused. From what Xie Ling said, the red mist illusion seemed very important to Wang Shouyun. Moreover, until now, Lin Tian still didn¡¯t know what the Red Mist illusion was? Wang Shouyun seemed to see through Lin Tian¡¯s confusion and explained the red mist illusion to Lin Tian. It turned out that the Red Mist illusion was a secret realm that was jointly managed by the Qing Xuan continent, the great desolate continent, and the nine spirit continent. It opened once every three years. wa The secret realm was rich in spiritual energy, and there were many treasures of heaven and earth and great opportunities such as immortal inheritances. However, there was a limit to the number of people in the mystical realm, and no one over the age of 20 was allowed to enter. The mystical realm quotas were distributed to the sects and forces of the three continents. Among them, the heavenly sword sect had three quotas. Chapter 34 - Lin Yuers Letter, The Lin Family Hurries Chapter 34 Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s Letter, The Lin Family Hurries After listening to Wang Shouyun¡¯s explanation, Lin Tian could not help but feel shocked. He was surprised that this so-called Red Mist illusion actually had an immortal inheritance. He also understood why Xie Ling and the other elders of the Heavenly Sword sect were not willing to give him the spot in the Red Mist illusion? However, what Lin Tian was more conflicted about now was the immortal inheritance in the Red Mist illusion. If news of this immortal inheritance could be spread, it meant that someone in the Qing Xuan continent, the tremendous desolate continent, and the nine spirit continent had obtained an immortal legacy. Lin Tian had just experienced the power of the immortal path cultivation technique and modified his innate talent. Therefore, Lin Tian knew that he still needed to become stronger. After all, he was not the only one who had the immortal path cultivation technique. Therefore, Lin Tian did not stand on ceremony towards Wang Shouyun¡¯s quota for the Red Mist illusion. He directly said, ¡°Then I won¡¯t stand on ceremony.¡± ¡°Lin Tian, you¡¯re being too polite. We have a life-and-death relationship.¡± Seeing that Lin Tian accepted the quota for the Red Mist illusion, Wang Shouyun was very happy. He really wanted to give the quota to Lin Tian. Xie Ling saw Wang Shouyun¡¯s expression and understood that he was determined to give the quota for the Red Mist illusion to Lin Tian. However, she did not want Wang Shouyun to miss this opportunity. Thus, Xie Ling said, ¡°Shouyun can not go to the Red Mist illusion, so I will give you the spot for my disciple, Xinyu. I will tell her about Xinyu.¡± Xinyu was Xie Ling¡¯s disciple, one of the best among the younger generation of the Heavenly Sword Sect. She was seventeen this year and had cultivated to the middle stage of the Sea of Qi realm. The spot for the Red Mist illusion had always been in the heavenly sword sect. The most promising and most talented young disciple had always been chosen. Xinyu was one of the three quotas. ¡°No, that¡¯s junior sister Xinyu¡¯s opportunity. I can¡¯t selfishly snatch the opportunity that belongs to her.¡± After hearing Xie Ling¡¯s words, Wang Shouyun immediately said. At this moment, Lin Tian¡¯s view of Xie Ling also changed. He thought to himself, ¡®It seems that this Xie Ling is also thinking for the Heavenly Sword sect¡¯s sake. She actually directly gave her disciple¡¯s opportunity to Wang Shouyun.¡¯ At this moment, the sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun, also said, ¡°Xie Ling, there¡¯s no need to say anymore. Shouyun¡¯s spot will be given to Lin Tian. The other two spots will remain unchanged. This matter is settled.¡± Seeing that the sect master had already spoken, Xie Ling did not continue speaking. In addition, if her disciple really lost this opportunity, she would also feel sorry for him. After the Red Mist illusory realm¡¯s matter was settled, Wang Yuankun asked Wang Shouyun to bring Lin Tian out of the sect hall. After all, there was nothing for Lin Tian to do. On the way back, Lin Tian was thrilled. This time, he did not expect to get such an opportunity just to complete the system¡¯s mission of helping others. ¡°Mo Yun didn¡¯t get that talisman for nothing. It was worth it to get a chance to enter the Red Mist illusion.¡± Lin Tian thought to himself. At this moment, Lin Tian remembered that Wang Shouyun had only explained the general situation of the Red Mist illusion, but he didn¡¯t mention when it would open. ¡°Shouyun, how long until the Red Mist Illusion Opens?¡± Lin Tian asked Wang Shouyun beside him. ¡°Haven¡¯t I told you about this yet?¡± ¡°Haha, I¡¯m Really Sorry.¡± Hearing Lin Tian¡¯s question, Wang Shouyun realized that he had left out this question. ¡°This time, the Red Mist illusion will only open half a month later.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not a lot of time. When will we head to the Red Mist illusion?¡± ¡°Our Heavenly Sword Sect has the heaven-defending immortal boat. It will take about five days to reach the Red Mist illusory realm. However, we will set off a period of time in advance so that our disciples can adapt to the outside environment.¡± ¡°So you don¡¯t have to worry about time. You can recuperate first before setting off.¡± Although Lin Tian¡¯s injuries had been completely healed by the holy pill a few days ago, Lin Tian was worried that his recovery speed would attract the attention of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Hence, he did not inform Wang Shouyun that he had fully recovered. After that, Lin Tian informed Wang Shouyun that he had almost fully recovered from his injuries on the fourth day after receiving the Red Mist illusion quota. He could set off for the Red Mist illusion. The higher-ups of the Heavenly Sword sect decided to set off the next day and head for the Red Mist illusion. The next day, Lin Tian practiced his sword techniques with the dragon vein sword in his courtyard. Five days ago, after leaving the main hall of the Heavenly Sword sect, Lin Tian asked Wang Shouyun to borrow a book on swordsmanship and saber techniques. With the Phoenix Wing Saber and the dragon-patterned sword, how could Lin Tian bear to let them be covered in dust? Therefore, during these five days, Lin Tian was either refining the demon cores of savage beasts in the desolate land or practicing his swordsmanship and saber techniques. He asked Wang Shouyun to bring him some ordinary martial techniques. After all, his main martial technique was still the ¡°Heavenly Tiger collapsing fist.¡± Lin Tian didn¡¯t think an outsider like him would be able to learn a martial technique that was even more advanced than the heavenly tiger collapsing fist. Moreover, it was hard to say if any martial techniques in the heavenly sword sect were even more advanced than the heavenly tiger collapsing fist. Just as Lin Tian was practicing his sword technique, a voice suddenly sounded. ¡°We will set off for the Red Mist illusory realm today. You are still practicing. No wonder you are so strong.¡± Lin Tian looked over and saw Wang Shouyun walking into the courtyard. ¡°Are they gathering already?¡± Lin Tian asked. Although Lin Tian lived in Wang Shouyun¡¯s Qingyang Peak, everyone cultivated on their own and did not visit often. Usually, when Wang Shouyun looked for Lin Tian, something happened. Wang Shouyun took out a letter and said, ¡°Not yet. The immortal boat will probably set off in the evening.¡± ¡°Someone sent you a letter. I brought it for you.¡± Lin Tian immediately felt uneasy after hearing that someone had sent him a letter. He had only told Lin Yu¡¯er about his visit to the Heavenly Sword Sect. If it was Lin Yu¡¯er who sent the letter, did it mean something had happened to the Lin Family? Thinking of Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s trouble, Lin Tian immediately took the letter and took a look. He saw that the sender of the letter was ¡°Lin Yu¡¯er.¡± Lin Tian immediately tore open the envelope without thinking much and took out the letter to check. [Lin Tian, when you see this letter, you must not return to Jade Lotus town. Hide as far away as you can.] The first sentence of the letter allowed Lin Tian to escape. This made Lin Tian¡¯s heart burn with anxiety, and it also confirmed the unease in his heart. Chapter 35 - Heaven-Grade Reward For Saving The Lin Family Chapter 35 Heaven-Grade Reward For Saving The Lin Family (The Li family borrowed Liu Qing¡¯s influence and gained the support of a large faction, the North Mystery Sect. They are preparing to send people to Jade Lotus town to join forces to attack the Lin family.] (The second young master of the Li family, Li Yinjie, who you once beat up, is looking for you everywhere. He claims that after he catches you, he will skin you alive to vent his hatred.) After reading Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s letter, the system notification sounded in his mind before Lin Tian could react. [Ding! Host has suddenly triggered a scenario mission. Mission content: The Lin family is in a critical moment. Host needs to return to the Lin family as soon as possible to defeat the joint attack of the Bei Xuan faction and the Li family and save the Lin family.] [Mission Reward: 1 Heaven-grade lottery ticket] ¡°Is it that serious?¡± After reading Lin Yu¡¯er¡¯s letter and receiving the mission notification, Lin Tian¡¯s face turned gloomy and his eyes turned serious. The crisis this time was much more serious than what Lin Tian had expected. The Li family was able to get the support of the Bei Xuan faction. This was something that Lin Tian had not expected. Lin Tian had learned from Wang Shouyun that the Bei Xuan faction was the one who had chased him from the demonic beast mountain range and wanted to snatch his treasures. Even Mo Yun, who had heavily injured him, was an elder of the North Mystery Sect. The North Mystery Sect was a sect that was on the same level as the Heavenly Sword Sect. If Lin Tian had not awakened the system, he would never have interacted with a sect like the Heavenly Sword Sect. In the eyes of the Heavenly Sword sect, the three magnates in Jade Lotus town were just a small village. The Heavenly Sword Sect could easily send out an elder, and they would be able to take over the entire Jade Lotus town. Because in Jade Lotus town, the highest cultivation level was only at the early stage of the sea of souls realm, and the number of people didn¡¯t even exceed one slap. And they were basically the kind of people who couldn¡¯t die. Even the Qi and blood realm cultivators were only about ten people. Without thinking too much, Lin Tian decided to return to the Lin family now. He wanted to rush to the Lin family before the people of the North Mystery Sect arrived at Jade Lotus town. Even if the North Mystery Sect had a spirit soul realm expert, or even an even stronger spirit Ascension realm expert, Lin Tian still had to rush back. ¡°Shouyun, the Lin family is in trouble. I need to return to Jade Lotus town immediately. You can go for the quota of the Red Mist illusion realm this time.¡± Lin Tian said to Wang Shouyun. Returning to the Lin family this time would definitely not solve the Lin family¡¯s problem in a short time. Therefore, Lin Tian knew that he wouldn¡¯t be able to make it in time for the opening of the Red Mist illusion. When he heard Lin Tian would give up the Red Mist illusion to return to the Lin family, Wang Shouyun was very surprised. This was because the quota for the red mist illusion was an extremely important matter in the integration of the Qing Xuan continent. If he missed the Red Mist illusion trial this time, Lin Tian would have to wait for another three years before he had the chance to enter the Red Mist illusion. Moreover, the world was unpredictable. Who knew what would happen in the future? Would Lin Tian be able to get another chance to enter the red mist illusory realm. Wang Shouyun immediately asked, ¡°What happened to the Lin Family? How could you be willing to give up the trial?¡± ¡°Do you know? After you give up this time, you might not have the chance to enter the red mist illusory realm again.¡± ¡°I know.¡± Lin Tian nodded and continued, ¡°But now, the Li family is preparing to attack the Lin family.¡± ¡°Lin Family? Are you talking about your family?¡± Wang Shouyun asked in confusion. Lin Tiancai noticed that he had never talked to Wang Shouyun about himself. Then, Lin Tian told Wang Shouyun, ¡°I come from a small place called Jade Lotus town. There are Lin, Su, and Li families there. Among them, the Lin family and the Li family are sworn enemies. ¡°Just now, the Lin family sent a letter saying that the Li family has already obtained the support of the North Mystery Sect. Now, they are sending people to Jade Lotus town with the intention of destroying the Lin family. ¡°The person who wrote the letter did not ask me to go back and help. Instead, he asked me to run away from Jade Lotus Town and avoid the pursuit of the Li family. ¡°Tell me, how can I not go back?¡± After hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, Wang Shouyun was instantly touched by the mutual concern and concern between Lin Tian and the Lin family. ¡°A person who is afraid that someone outside will be hurt and won¡¯t be allowed to come back.¡± ¡°Someone outside is worried about his family and will give up the mystic realm¡¯s trial to return.¡± ¡°The relationship between your Lin family is too good.¡± For some reason, Wang Shouyun¡¯s eyes started to tear up as he spoke. After that, Wang Shouyun did not continue to force Lin Tian to stay. He sent Lin Tian to the gate of the Heavenly Sword sect and gave him a black cloud beast mount to ride back. This black cloud beast had a graceful body, its limbs were muscular, and its body was covered in black fur. When it ran, it was like a black shadow flashing past. ¡°The speed of this black cloud beast is several times faster than the red-blooded BMW you bought in Loess City. I estimate that you will be able to return to Jade Lotus town in three to four days.¡± Wang Shouyun said to Lin Tian. ¡°Thank you, brother.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian directly rode on the black cloud beast and left. This time, Lin Tian did not give up the Red Mist illusion for the system¡¯s heaven-grade lottery ticket. This time, Lin Tian wanted to go back and save the Lin family and that silly girl, Lin Yuler. Wang Shouyun looked at Lin Tian who was far away and could not help but sigh, ¡°This Lin Tian is a really good man who values friendship and loyalty!¡± Suddenly, Wang Shouyun seemed to have thought of something and muttered softly, ¡°The Li family can call for people, Lin Tian. It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t have people to support you.¡± A moment later, Wang Shouyun came to the main hall of the sect. The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Wang Yuankun, and a group of elders were in the main hall of the sect, and there were two young disciples, a man and a woman. They were the other two holders of the red mist illusory realm quota, Xinyu and Yuan Lei. ¡°Chengyun, what do you want me to call the elders of the sect for?¡± Wang Yuankun looked at Wang Chengyun. ¡°It¡¯s like this. Lin Tian has just left the sect and returned to the Lin family,¡± Wang Shouyun said. As soon as he said this, Xie Ling immediately burst into laughter. Since Lin Tian had left, it meant that the spot would be returned to the Heavenly Sword sect. In contrast to Xie Ling, Elder Huang had a puzzled look on his face and asked, ¡°Did something happen to the Lin family when Lin Tian returned at this time?¡± ¡°Yes, the enemy family of the Lin family went to the Bei Xuan faction. Now, the Bei Xuan faction is sending people to the Jade Lotus town to kill the Lin family. ¡°After Lin Tian received the news, he immediately gave up on the quota and rushed back to the Lin family,¡± Wang Shouyun immediately replied. ¡°Good, you can go to the Red Mist illusion now,¡± Xie Ling said happily. Ever since she heard that Lin Tian had given up on the red mist illusory realm, she had been grinning from ear to ear. Wang Shouyun didn¡¯t seem to be happy about Xie Ling¡¯s words. His face had been lifeless ever since he entered the main hall of the sect. Wang Yuankun was, after all, his father. He could tell what Wang Shouyun was thinking at a glance. He said, ¡°Then what do you plan to do now?¡± Hearing his father¡¯s question, a smile finally appeared on Wang Shouyun¡¯s face. He said firmly, ¡°I want to bring people to the Lin family to support Lin Tian.¡± Chapter 36 - The Current Situation of The Lin Family Chapter 36 The Current Situation of The Lin Family Qingxuan continent, outside the mountain range of demonic beasts, Huangtu City. After three days and four nights of nonstop travel, Lin Tian finally returned to Huangtu city on the fourth day. The speed and endurance of this black cloud beast were indeed much greater than the previous red blood BMW. Even after four days of continuous running, it still looked full of energy. Lin Tian led the black cloud beast as they walked in the city. Wherever they passed, they attracted the attention of the surrounding people. It was all because of the lively black cloud beast in his hand. ¡°A high-level mount, the Black Cloud Beast! Which family¡¯s young master is this person?¡± ¡°For someone to have a mount like the Black Cloud Beast, other than sects like the Heavenly Sword Sect and the North Mystery Sect, who else could have it?¡± ¡°Heavenly Sword sect, North Mystery Sect! F*ck, it¡¯s actually these big powers. I originally wanted to beat them up and snatch the Black Cloud Beast.¡± ¡°Beat them up? HMPH, this black cloud beast is only qualified to be obtained by the elites of those sects. Any one of them can be killed in this small place.¡± ¡°Ah, this kid looks like he¡¯s only in his teens. How strong can he be?¡± ¡°The current young master of the Heavenly Sword sect is in the late stage of the Qi and blood realm at eighteen¡­¡± Lin Tian ignored the discussions of those people and continued to walk on his own. He didn¡¯t rush back to the Lin family immediately. Instead, He came to Yellow Earth City first to find out the current situation in Jade Lotus town. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be undefeated in a hundred battles? If he rashly returned to Jade Lotus town, perhaps it would only make the situation worse. No matter what time it was, a resting place like an inn would always have the information you wanted. Not long after, Lin Tian arrived at the inn that had previously opened a room for fifty taels of gold. When the inn¡¯s waiter saw Lin Tian, his eyes shone with a golden light as if he had seen a mountain of gold. He immediately greeted him with a smile and said warmly, ¡°Young master, are you here to stay again?¡± ¡°Do you still recognize me?¡± Lin Tian glanced at the waiter and said lightly. ¡°Ever since this inn opened, you¡¯ve been the only one staying here. How Could You Not Remember?¡± The waiter said with a smile. Lin Tian couldn¡¯t help but roll his eyes at this and thought, ¡°So, I¡¯m a big fish in the water, right?¡± ¡°I¡¯m not staying here today. I just came back from the outside, and I want to eat something.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian handed the Black Cloud Beast¡¯s leash to the waiter and walked straight into the inn. It was daytime, and many guests were on the inn¡¯s first floor. The twenty or so tables were almost full. Most of the guests were dressed in shabby clothes. Only the guests at the two tables were dressed neatly. Lin Tian came in front of the well-dressed guests and asked, ¡°There are no more empty tables in the inn. Can I sit here?¡± It was not that Lin Tian disliked shabby clothes. It was just that the well-dressed people were probably businessmen from the nearby cities and knew more about the recent happenings. Those with shabby clothes must have just come out from the demonic beast mountain range and probably had not heard about the recent news. As expected, after Lin Tian got permission and sat down, they started to talk about the situation in Jade Lotus town. ¡°What did you say you were here for? The Bei Xuan faction has arrived at Jade Lotus Town, right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Yesterday, the Bei Xuan Faction Elder brought a group of Bei Xuan faction disciples to Jade Lotus Town.¡± ¡°And I heard that the Elder was a spiritual soul realm expert. The weakest of those disciples was a sea of Qi realm cultivator.¡± ¡°This bei Xuan faction is too powerful. Doesn¡¯t that mean that the Lin family has already been destroyed?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think so. They said they would give the Lin family one day to disband their clan and leave Jade Lotus town. Otherwise, they would personally come the next day and exterminate the Lin family.¡± ¡°Eh, is that today?¡± At this moment, the waiter came to their side and asked with a smile, ¡°Dear guests, where is the young master who is sitting here?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that person here?¡± As he said that, the customer turned his head to look at Lin Tian¡¯s original seat but found that there was no one there. He couldn¡¯t help but feel puzzled. When Lin Tian heard that the north mystery sect was going to visit the Lin family today, he had already rushed out. He rode the Black Cloud Beast back to the Lin family anxiously. Through this investigation, Lin Tian basically had a rough idea. tas The strongest strength of the other party was only in the spiritual soul realm. With his current strength, it wouldn¡¯t be a problem to challenge the other party. Lin Tian was afraid that spiritual soul realm cultivators were still hiding behind. He did not dare to guarantee that the four seas heart returning pendant would still be able to withstand it? ¡°The Lin family has to put in some effort!¡± Lin Tian thought to himself. On the other side, in Jade Lotus town, the Lin family was utterly unafraid of the threat of the Bei Xuan sect. All the restaurants and shops were still open for business. However, other than the Li family members, there were no other customers. Before the Bei Xuan faction members had even arrived at Jade Lotus town, the Li family had already announced that they had the support of the Bei Xuan faction and wanted to destroy the Lin family. At this time, who would dare to get involved in the conflict between the Lin and Li families? ¡°Hey, shopkeeper, why haven¡¯t the dishes been served yet?¡± In the Lin Family Restaurant, a member of the Li family shouted at the top of his voice. While he was speaking, he was still using his chopsticks to knock on the white ceramic bowl, rudely clanking away. This was the Li family deliberately causing trouble, affecting the Lin family¡¯s restaurant¡¯s business. In such a situation, not only did they appear in the restaurant, but all of the Lin family¡¯s business shops had such customers. Without exception, these customers were all ordinary members of the Li family. ¡°Shopkeeper, can we just watch the Li family stir up trouble here?¡± ¡°Why didn¡¯t the master send someone to maintain order?¡± ¡°The Lin family won¡¯t have a good time either. How can we deploy any manpower?¡± The shopkeeper said helplessly. Jade Lotus town, Lin family¡¯s courtyard. An old man in a gray robe stood proudly outside the Lin family¡¯s main gate. He looked at the Lin family plaque and said indifferently, ¡°Is this the Lin Clan?¡± The old man¡¯s gray robe had the words ¡°Bei Xuan¡± embroidered. The Bei Xuan faction¡¯s leader, Liu Yun, had come to Jade Lotus town. Behind Liu Yun stood seven cultivators in Bei Xuan faction robes. Each of them exuded a strong aura. The weakest among them was in the Qi and blood realm. Li Zhen, the clan leader of the Li clan, and Li Yinjie stood respectfully to the side. A large group of Li clan disciples surrounded the Bei Xuan faction members. ¡°Elder Liu, this is our target this time: The Lin family.¡± At this moment, Li Zhen was like a lapdog, bowing and nodding beside the old man. ¡°Then I want to know. What confidence does the Lin family have? They actually disobeyed my words.¡± Liu Yun said disdainfully. After saying that, Liu Yun took the lead and walked toward the Lin family. The guards on both sides of the Lin family¡¯s main gate had already left. The main gate was opened as if saying, ¡°Our Lin family is waiting for you inside.¡±. At the same time, in the main hall of the Lin family¡¯s main courtyard. Lin Zhenshan¡¯s expression was solemn. He sat on the seat of the family head, with Lin Haoyu standing behind him. The Lin family¡¯s elders sat at the bottom of the main hall, with the Lin family¡¯s consecrated guards standing behind them. The Lin family members, who had some basic strength, were currently standing guard around the Lin family¡¯s main hall. Everyone stared at the outside of the main hall without saying a word. The atmosphere was extremely heavy. ¡°Family head, the Li family has brought people from Bei Xuan faction in.¡± At this moment, a Lin family member ran over and shouted. Not long after, Lin Zhenshan saw Liu Yun¡¯s figure appear in front of him and the crowd behind him. Chapter 37 - The Lin Familys Shocking Change Chapter 37 The Lin Family¡¯s Shocking Change ¡°I¡¯ll give you one more chance. Either you disband and leave Jade Lotus Town, or we¡¯ll use force to chase away your Lin family.¡± Liu Yun walked into the Lin family¡¯s hall and said to Lin Zhenshan. Before Lin Zhenshan could say anything, Li Zhenxian, who was beside Liu Yun, said, ¡°Elder Liu, why are you still talking nonsense with them? We already gave them a chance to escape yesterday. They won¡¯t run.¡± ¡°And the entire Lin family is standing here. Isn¡¯t it obvious that they disagree with your Bei Xuan Faction?¡± ¡°If we don¡¯t teach them a lesson, they¡¯ll think that your Bei Xuan faction is easy to bully.¡± ¡°Li Zhen, you old thing, other than fanning the flames, what else do you have?¡± Lin Xinran pointed at Li Zhen¡¯s nose and scolded. This time, Lin Zhenhai did not scold Lin Xinran for being insensible, allowing her to scold Li Zhen. Lin Zhenhai and the others, who usually did not get along with Lin Zhenshan, did not leave when the Lin family was in a deep crisis. ¡°You¡­¡± Scolded by a junior of the Lin family for being an old man, Li Zhen instantly became furious. Because Lin Xinran was right, Li Zhen did not have any other abilities other than fanning the flames. In terms of family strength, the Lin family had two sea of soul realm cultivators, and the Li family only had him. The Lin family had four seas of soul realm cultivators, and the Li family had two, so there were two fewer. The Li family had sixteen strong body realm cultivators, and the Lin family had almost twice as many as the Li family, with thirty strong body realm cultivators. The difference in strength between the two families was rather significant. It was precisely because of this that Li Zhen dared to confront the Lin family directly with the support of the Bei Xuan Gate. ¡°Patriarch Lin, what is your choice?¡± The Bei Xuan Faction Elder, Liu Yun, ignored Li Zhen¡¯s ruckus. His attention was on Lin Zhenshan, who had always been the leader of the Lin family. ¡°If you want to disband our Lin family, then we will have to see what you can do,¡± Lin Zhenshan said. As he spoke, a powerful aura burst from Lin Zhenshan¡¯s body. The table beside him started to shake from his aura. In an instant, a huge aura swept through the hall like a violent wind. ¡°Interesting, your aura is even more vigorous than ordinary sea of souls realm cultivators. Even in the North Mystery Sect, there are very few seas of souls realm cultivators who are your match. No wonder the Li family needed to find the North Mystery Sect,¡± Liu Yun said lightly. Hearing Liu Yun¡¯s praise for Lin Zhenshan, Li Zhen couldn¡¯t help but feel a little embarrassed, thinking to himself: ¡®Big Brother, I¡¯m here to ask for your help. Why are you so focused on praising the enemy?¡¯ Then, to show that he did not need Lin Zhenshan to be weak, Li Zhen also activated his cultivation technique and burst out with his own aura. However, he could not withstand Lin Zhenshan¡¯s aura at all. Instead, he was entirely suppressed by the other party. Liu Yun shot a disdainful glance at Li Zhen as if he was talking about his pig-like teammate. ¡°Huang Li, you usually stay in the sect to train hard. It¡¯s rare for you to leave the mountain. Go up and ask Patriarch Lin for advice.¡± Liu Yun faced Lin Zhentian and said calmly. Liu Yun knew Li Zhen¡¯s strength was not a match for Lin Zhentian, so he sent his disciple behind him. As soon as he finished speaking, a thin, weak man walked out from behind and said, ¡°Yes, master.¡± In the next second, Huang Li¡¯s clothes fluttered even though there was no wind, and an aura that was not weaker than Lin Zhentian rose. Then, without any warning, Huang Li suddenly exerted his strength, and his figure flashed, turning into an afterimage as he attacked Lin Zhishan. ¡°Hmph!¡± Lin Zhishan snorted coldly, and his large hand slapped the table. His entire body then rose into the air, and met Huang Li¡¯s attack. After a breath, Lin Zhishan and Huang Li¡¯s fists and palms met mid-air, and an intense air wave suddenly surged in the Lin family¡¯s hall. For a time, all the accessories in the Lin family¡¯s hall were blown wildly by the airwave, and some were blown off. Those strong physique echelon members of the Lin family could not withstand it and were pushed to the wall behind by the violent airwave. Many strong physique echelon members of the Li family were also directly blown outside. ¡°This Lin Zhenshan is so strong, to be able to fight evenly with the sea of Souls Realm Disciples of the North Mystery Sect.¡± Li Zhen¡¯s expression was shocked, and he exclaimed ¡°Noisy!¡± Liu Yun looked at Li Zhen unhappily, and at the same time, a burst of aura suddenly shot out from his body, charging straight at Li Zhen. Li Zhen had never thought that Liu Yun would suddenly attack him and did not set up any guard against Liu Yun at all. In the next second, Li Zhen was sent flying by Liu Yun¡¯s aura and fell to the ground. ¡°Elder Liu, why is this¡­¡± Li Zhen steadied himself and was about to ask Liu Yun why he suddenly attacked him, but when he saw Liu Yun¡¯s unfriendly gaze, he shut his mouth again. As Liu Yun¡¯s disciple, Huang Li naturally felt unhappy when he saw his disciple fighting with a cultivator from a border town. In Liu Yun¡¯s eyes, cultivators from a small town like Jade Lotus were just trash that could not be put on the stage. On the other side, after Lin Zhenshan and Huang Li¡¯s attack, they felt that the hall of the Lin family was too narrow. They directly broke open the hall¡¯s ceiling and continued to fight on the roof. Then, Liu Yun, who was in a bad mood, glanced at the members of the Lin family and said casually, ¡°Kill them.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± After saying that, the disciples of the North Mystery Sect began to call out their weapons. Some drew their swords, some drew their crescent blades, and some drew their spears. ¡°What arrogance. No matter how lonely the Lin clan is, no one can bully them.¡± Seeing this, the elders of the Lin clan roared and circulated their cultivation techniques, causing the aura around them to soar. ¡°The Li clan disciples will follow Bei Xuan faction and destroy the Lin clan today!¡± Li Zhen shouted in excitement after he heard Liu Yun¡¯s words. It was as if he had already seen the end of the Lin family. For a moment, the crisp sound of blades clashing against each other rang out within the Lin family. The unbridled spiritual power undulations were destroying everything around them. Very quickly, under the joint attack of the Li family and the Bei Xuan faction, the Lin family gradually fell. On the other side, Lin Zhenshan relied on the Lin family¡¯s ancestral martial arts to force Huang Li to retreat, unable to fight back. Just as Lin Zhenshan was about to suppress Huang Li, he was stopped by another sea of souls realm expert from the North Mystery Sect. But even if the two attacked together, Lin Zhenshan was still not at a disadvantage. The momentum of the three exchanges sent the entire roof of the Lin family¡¯s hall flying. Finally, Lin Zhenshan¡¯s luck lifted his spirit, and the sea of souls in his Dantian surged restlessly. At the same time, a thick and overbearing power appeared in his hands. Lin Zhenshan¡¯s eyes focused. He looked at Huang Li and Huang Li coldly, as if he was looking at two defeated opponents. Huang Li looked at Lin Zhenshan in disbelief and said in fear, ¡°How can such a poor and remote place have such a terrifying spiritual ocean realm cultivator like you!¡± ¡°The world is so big. Why not?¡± Lin Zhenshan asked in a deep voice. Immediately after, he shouted and pushed both of his palms forward. The powerful and tyrannical force smashed on Huang Li and Huang Li like a violent storm. Huang Li and Lin Zhenshan resisted with all their might. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not prevent themselves from being suppressed. Bang! Very soon, Huang Li and Lin Zhenshan crashed onto the ground, creating a bottomless pit and stirring up a cloud of dust. Lin Zhenshan looked down at Huang Li, who was in the pit, just like a powerhouse. Chapter 38 - Isnt This Li Familys Second Young Master Whose Head Got Smashed In By Me? Chapter 38 Isn¡¯t This Li Family¡¯s Second Young Master Whose Head Got Smashed In By Me? Suddenly, Lin Zhenshan felt a wave of killing intent directed at him. Without waiting for him to react, he turned his head to look and saw Liu Yun¡¯s figure gradually enlarging, and a ball of raging fire gathered in his hand. Lin Zhenshan immediately raised his hand to block it. However, the Spirit Soul Realm Liu Yun was not something he could withstand. The blazing flames instantly engulfed Lin Zhishan¡¯s figure. In the next second, Lin Zhishan flew out of the Flames in a sorry state and fell to the ground, just like Huang Li. ¡°Father!¡± ¡°Family head!¡± Lin Haoyu and the Lin family members immediately broke away from the enemy and came to Lin Zhishan¡¯s side. At this moment, Lin Zhishan¡¯s consciousness was blurry. It was apparent that he could no longer continue fighting. Looking at his heavily injured father, Lin Haoyu¡¯s heart was filled with grief. He hated himself for not having the strength. The elder in Lin Haoyu¡¯s ring looked at him, who was lowering his head and holding back his tears. He said faintly, ¡°Forget it, forget it. You can be considered a person with deep love and loyalty. I¡¯ll come and help you.¡± ¡°However, after helping you this time, I don¡¯t know when I¡¯ll be able to wake up again.¡± At the same time, old voices rang out in the ancestral hall in the depths of the Lin family¡¯s courtyard. ¡°Isn¡¯t Lin Zhenshan your grandson? Your grandson was beaten up, and you could even endure it.¡± ¡°D*mn it, if I wasn¡¯t afraid that those bastards would smell it and come here, I would have long gone out and slapped those people to death.¡± ¡°Hey, that Kid Lin Zhenshan has fallen. Do you want to make a move?¡± ¡°Hahaha, no rush, no rush. I feel that there¡¯s an interesting kid rushing over.¡± Outside the Lin family¡¯s hall. Li Zhen saw Lin Zhenshan had been beaten to the ground by the Bei Xuan faction¡¯s elder Liu Yuan and had lost his spirit. He immediately stood up and said arrogantly, ¡°The strongest family head of the Lin family, Lin Zhenshan, has fallen to the ground and cannot get up. Your Lin family should not stubbornly resist. Put down your weapons and surrender.¡± ¡°Bullsh*t! If you have the ability, come out and fight me one-on-one. See if I won¡¯t smash your head in!¡± The fiery-tempered fifth elder of the Lin family angrily pointed at Li Zhen¡¯s nose and directly scolded him. ¡°That¡¯s right. Without the help of the North Mystery Sect, who do you think your Li family is?¡± The other members of the Lin family also followed the Lin family¡¯s fifth elder and shouted angrily. Not a single one of them stood out to surrender. Li Zhen did not get angry at the Lin family¡¯s curses. Instead, he said righteously, ¡°So what? As long as My Li family wins, your Lin family will lose. I don¡¯t care about anything else.¡± ¡°In any case, your Lin family is now destined to be annexed by my Li family. I hope that you can still have such backbone in a while.¡± Li Zhen¡¯s eyes and tone could not help but become vicious when he said this. Towards Li Zhen¡¯s shamelessness and scoundrel, the Lin family could only look at them with a face full of anger. However, some of the core elders of the Lin family did not have a trace of panic on their faces at this moment. They knew that the strength of the Lin family was not just as it appeared on the surface. as In the depths of the Lin family ancestral hall, there was the elder generation of the Lin family who had cultivated for many years. Although they did not know the strength of the elder of the Lin family, they knew that every elder of the Lin family had the strength to kill everyone here in an instant. This included the elder of the North Mystery Sect, Liu Yuan. However, if the elder of the Lin family made a move, it would attract the attention of powerful enemies and cause even worse trouble. ¡°¡­¡± Therefore, it was not the time for the Lin family to be in a crisis. Those elders of the Lin family were all living in seclusion in the secret chamber of the Lin family. ¡°Alright, I won¡¯t waste my time with you guys. ¡°Leave the women behind, and kill all the men,¡± Li Zhen pointed at the defeated soldiers of the Lin family and said slowly. After saying that, the Li family disciples started to move and slowly walked toward the Lin family members. Da Da Da! At this moment, the sound of hooves rang out, and the sound continued to grow louder. Suddenly, a figure crossed over the head of the Li family disciples and landed in front of the Lin family members and the Li family members. It immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. ¡°So many people. Are you guys having a gathering?¡± Lin Tian¡¯s cheap voice suddenly sounded. ¡°Lin Tian!¡± ¡°Lin Tian!¡± Lin Haoyu and Li Yinjie immediately recognized the person as Lin Tian, who had ¡°Disappeared¡± for a long time, and immediately exclaimed. The others unfamiliar with Lin Tian looked at Lin Tian, who had suddenly barged in with a dumbfounded expression. After returning, Lin Tian briefly scanned his surroundings. He saw the cracked floor, the damaged stone pillars, and the bloody corpse. He could not help but frown and sigh: ¡°Looks like I¡¯m late.¡± ¡°Wait, why isn¡¯t Lin Yu¡¯er Here?¡± After not seeing Lin Yu¡¯er, Lin Tian panicked. He immediately went to Lin Haoyu¡¯s side and asked worriedly, ¡°Young master, why didn¡¯t I see Miss Yu¡¯er?¡± ¡°Yu¡¯er isn¡¯t here. She followed the family¡¯s old women and children to hide somewhere else,¡± Lin Haoyu explained. Hearing that Lin Yu¡¯er was fine, Lin Tian¡¯s flustered heart immediately calmed down, and a smile appeared on his face. ¡°Lin Tian, your brain must have been kicked silly by a donkey.¡± At this moment, Li Yinjie mocked him from behind. ¡°I¡¯ve been looking for you for so many days without any news. I didn¡¯t expect you to come back to die in the end.¡± Lin Tian turned around and stared at Li Yinjie seriously without saying a word. A few seconds later, Lin Tian¡¯s expression suddenly changed. With a puzzled look, he asked indifferently, ¡°Who the hell are you? Do I know you very well?¡± Hearing that Lin Tian did not remember him, Li Yinjie felt that he had been ignored. He pointed at Lin Tian angrily and shouted, ¡°You beat me up in the restaurant last month, and now you have forgotten me!¡± ¡°Oh, so you are the second young master of the Li family, Li Yinjie, who was beaten to a pig¡¯s head by me.¡± After hearing Li Yinjie¡¯s words, the corners of Lin Tian¡¯s mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled. Only then did Li Yinjie realize that he had been played by Lin Tian. The anger in his heart grew even more intense as he held onto his sharp sword and wanted to chop Lin Tian Up. However, Bei Xuan sect elder Liu Yuan suddenly appeared before him and blocked his way. ¡°You Are Lin Tian?¡± Liu Yuan asked with a calm expression. ¡°Are you deaf? Didn¡¯t you hear your master, the second-hand master of the Li family, call my name just now?¡± Facing the enemy of the Lin family, Lin Tian did not give him any face at all. He retorted in a harsh tone. ¡°Elder, don¡¯t listen to his nonsense. He is trying to sow discord between us. Lin Tian is using someone else to kill him!¡± After hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, Li Yinjie immediately came to Liu Yuan in fear and explained in a humble tone. ¡°Do you think this old man doesn¡¯t Know?¡± Liu Yuan said without changing his expression, but at the same time, he swung his left hand and sent Li Yinjie flying. At this time, Lin Haoyu came to Lin Tian¡¯s side and asked, ¡°Why are you back? Didn¡¯t Yu¡¯er write a letter to tell you to hide far away?¡± ¡°Young master, do you think Lin Tian is a coward?¡± ¡°As a member of the Lin family, when the family is in danger, I will definitely not live in vain.¡± Hearing this, Lin Tian¡¯s expression was solemn as he said with a serious expression. As soon as he said this, Lin Haoyu heavily patted Lin Tian¡¯s shoulder. His expression was moved as he said, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, the Lin family will definitely not break up. We will definitely survive this crisis.¡± The other members of the Lin family were also moved by Lin Tian¡¯s feelings towards the family. ¡°He¡¯s about to die, yet he still plays the role of a sensationalist. Ridiculous.¡± Liu Yuan¡¯s untimely voice rang out. His eyes stared at Lin Tian like a poisonous snake, as if he wanted to swallow Lin Tian whole. ¡°Before I came to the Lin family, someone told me to pay special attention to someone. I must kill that person.¡± Facing Liu Yuan¡¯s gaze, Lin Tian stared back fearlessly and said with a faint smile, ¡°That person can¡¯t be me, right?¡± ¡°It seems you still have some self-awareness and know that you¡¯re annoying,¡± said Liu Yuan. ¡°Who dares to touch my good brother?¡± At this moment, a familiar voice came from the sky. Lin Tian looked up and saw Wang Shouyun leading a group of disciples from the Heavenly Sword Sect. Chapter 39 - Cant We Just Fight It Out? Chapter 39 Can¡¯t We Just Fight It Out? The sudden arrival of the heavenly sword sect attracted the attention of everyone present. The expressions of the Lin family and the others were puzzled, and their faces were gloomy. They did not know why the faction that had appeared this time was here. Could it be that it was another helper Li Zhen had called over? On the other side, when Li Zhen saw Wang Shouyun and the others appear, he was also dumbfounded. He thought of the words that Wang Shouyun had said when he first appeared, ¡°Who dares to hurt my good brother?¡± He guessed that it was probably a helper that the Lin family had hired. He could not help but feel nervous as he thought to himself, ¡°It can¡¯t be that the Lin family will reverse the situation, right?¡± Lin Tian was very surprised by Wang Shouyun¡¯s sudden arrival. He went up to him with a delighted expression and asked, ¡°Why are you here? Have you given up on the mayfly illusion?¡± ¡°Your family is in trouble. As your good brother, how can I sit back and do nothing?¡± Wang Shouyun said lightly. The Lin family members saw that the person who came was Lin Tian¡¯s acquaintance, not Li Zhen¡¯s. The tension in their hearts instantly relaxed. Lin Tian looked behind Wang Shouyun and saw an acquaintance, elder Xie Ling, who was once dissatisfied with him getting the spot in the Red Mist illusion. ¡°Why is this elder Xie Ling here? Doesn¡¯t she hate me?¡± Lin Tian pretended not to care and asked Wang Shouyun in a soft voice. However, Xie Ling heard every word Lin Tian said. Xie Ling was also angry at this. She said calmly, ¡°I came here to see what kind of ability the young master of our Heavenly Sword sect is willing to give up the mystical realm quota.¡± Halfway through her words, Xie Ling suddenly turned to look at Liu Yun of the North Mystery Sect. Her eyes were full of sharpness. ¡°Secondly, I want to teach the north mystery sect who hurt my young master a lesson.¡± ¡°Haha, Xie Ling, you are still the same. You like to boast shamelessly and boast,¡± Liu Yun laughed, disregarding Xie Ling. At this time, Wang Shouyun stood out and criticized Liu Yun. ¡°Your North Mystery sect meddling in the conflicts between the families in the small border cities is not following the rules of the Qing Xuan continent¡¯s sects, right?¡± ¡°If this gets out, you can call on the sects of the other two regions to work together to exterminate the North Mystery Sect.¡± The members of the North Mystery Sect had yet to panic, but Li Zhen already felt afraid. ¡°The Li family is a subordinate family of our North Mystery Sect. It was bullied, so it sent me to stand up for it. Isn¡¯t this reasonable?¡± Liu Yun immediately came up with a reason, which sounded hard to refute. After all, if the subordinate family was bullied and couldn¡¯t get back at it, how could the other subordinate families be willing to stay under the sect? At this time, Liu Yun asked Wang Shouyun, ¡°Then why is Your Heavenly Sword sect here?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you want to interfere in the family fight in a border town?¡± ¡°They will be besieged by other sects in other areas.¡± ¡°Humph, Lin Tian is my good brother. His family is in trouble. Is there a problem for me to help him?¡± Wang Shouyun Zhen asked. Lin Tian was impatient and said, ¡°Why are you still talking so much with the people of North Mystery Sect? It¡¯s not the first time we fought with them. Why not just fight with them directly?¡± As he spoke, Lin Tian had already put the heaven-shaking finger tiger on his hand. At the same time, the spirit sea in his dantian continued to mobilize spiritual power, activating the ¡°heaven tiger collapsing fist.¡± A powerful and terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Lin Tian¡¯s body. It was as fierce as a wave of air, blowing away everything in the surroundings. as a Wd Lin Haoyu, who was close to Lin Tian, had just recovered to the advanced body strengthening stage. He could not withstand this aura and could not help but retreat more than ten meters before stopping. ¡°When did Lin Tian become so strong? He is even stronger than my father.¡± Lin Haoyu looked at Lin Tian¡¯s back with a shocked expression and sighed with emotion in his heart. Lin Tian¡¯s outburst instantly shocked everyone, especially Li Yinjie. At this moment, he had no intention of seeking revenge on Lin Tian. It was already good enough that he was not killed. ¡°Leave that old thing to me. You guys can do whatever you want with the rest.¡± After saying that, Lin Tian clenched his heaven-shaking finger tiger tightly and used the move from the ¡°Heavenly Tiger Collapsing Fist.¡± He pounced at Liu Yun with fierce and overbearing momentum. ¡°What big words. A mere sea of souls realm cultivator actually dares to challenge me. He really doesn¡¯t know the immensity of heaven and earth.¡± Liu Yun also started to circulate his own cultivation technique. A wave of hot aura suddenly burst out to resist Lin Tian¡¯s aura. In an instant, Lin Tian¡¯s fierce and overbearing aura and Liu Yun¡¯s hot aura clashed in mid-air, creating a fierce airwave that quickly swept out in all directions. The weaker cultivators were directly swept into mid-air by the fierce airwave. For a moment, a large empty space suddenly opened up around Lin Tian and Liu Yun. ¡°Your aura can actually contend with mine!¡± Liu Yun said in surprise. Obviously, Liu Yun was very surprised that he didn¡¯t see Lin Tian being sent flying. ¡°That¡¯s because you¡¯ve cultivated to the level of a dog,¡± Lin Tian mocked. In addition, he held the heaven-shaking finger tiger in his hand and charged up his strength to punch. A fierce and tyrannical fist wind rushed toward Liu Yun. ¡°Your mouth is quite powerful, but I wonder if your strength is as powerful as your mouth?¡± Liu Yun said with a cold snort. He clenched both of his hands at the same time and pushed his cultivation method to the extreme, bursting out a blazing flame to meet Lin Tian¡¯s fierce fist wind. In the next second, fist and palm collided, once again bursting out a strong qi wave, shaking the floor under Lin Tian and Liu Yun¡¯s feet, creating many cracks that extended out for more than ten meters, stirring up waves of sand and stones into the air. ¡°You, a sea of souls realm warrior, can actually withstand my full-strength attack!¡± Seeing Lin Tian was still not blown away, Liu Yun was dumbstruck, and his expression was terrified. He could not help but exclaim in surprise. With the [Heaven and earth sacred art] to temper the sea of souls, and the [Innate soul formation art] to improve his innate talent, coupled with the (Heaven shaking finger tiger) and the [Heavenly tiger collapsing fist), Lin Tian¡¯s battle strength had long surpassed sea the sea of souls realm. Even if he met Mo Yun, who was in the late stage of the Spirit Soul Realm, Lin Tian was confident he could defeat him. ¡°It seems that your strength is already like this. Then, it¡¯s my turn to use my ultimate move.¡± Lin Tian¡¯s expression was indifferent as he said lightly. After he finished speaking, Lin Tian began to change his stance. His aura suddenly soared again, and there was the faint sound of a tiger¡¯s roar, shocking the hearts and souls of others. As Lin Tian punched out, the heavenly tiger¡¯s divine aspect appeared behind Lin Tian. Then, it merged with the wind of the fist, and its strength instantly increased by three times, rapidly pouncing toward Liu Yun. ¡°What¡­ What is this thing?¡± Seeing the heavenly tiger divine aspect getting closer and closer, Liu Yun desperately ignited the red flames of spiritual power in his hand and gushed toward the heavenly tiger divine aspect, trying to block the approach of the Heavenly Tiger Divine Aspect. However, all of this was in vain. Boom!!! With a loud boom, a huge hole appeared in the wall of the Lin family, and a huge pit appeared simultaneously. Liu Yun lay at the bottom of the pit, motionless and quietly lying on the ground. Chapter 40 - Averting Crisis, And Mystic Realms Opening Time Delayed Chapter 40 Averting Crisis, And Mystic Realm¡¯s Opening Time Delayed The battle between Lin Tian and Liu Yun was extremely grand, and the people who were fighting on the other side could not help but draw their attention over it. When the dust settled and revealed Liu Yun at the bottom of the deep pit, Li Zhen and the others immediately turned pale with fright. ¡°This Bei Xuan Sect¡¯s elder Liu Yun is a spiritual soul realm expert. How could he fall at the hands of a child-like Lin Tian?¡± Li Zhen looked at Liu Yun¡¯s corpse and muttered in a daze. Liu Yun¡¯s failure meant that his Li family had lost the battle with the Lin family this time. The consequences of this failure would be the destruction of the Li family. Li Zhen deeply understood that the Li family would no longer exist in Jade Lotus town after this battle. The Bei Xuan sect, represented by Huang Li, did not hesitate when they saw their master¡¯s death. They immediately turned around and fled. Without the support of the North Mystery Sect, the Li family¡¯s disciples were just a bunch of mobs. It did not take long for them to be suppressed by the Lin family and the Heavenly Sword Sect. The Lin family and the Li family were the three magnates of Jade Lotus town. The battle between them would definitely attract the attention of the entire town. Hence, there were spies from various forces outside the Lin family. After the Lin family defeated the Li family, the news spread like wings to the entire Jade Lotus town. It even spread to other cities. For a time, the news of the Lin family and the Li family spread like wildfire in Jade Lotus town. The Li family disciples who were causing trouble in the Lin family¡¯s business shops heard that the Lin family suppressed the Li family head and the rest. They were completely dispirited and dispirited. On the other hand, the Lin family was the opposite. Each and every one of them acted like they were injected with stimulants and used brute force to chase away the Li family disciples who were causing trouble in their shops. Thus, the crisis of the Lin family was resolved perfectly with the help of Lin Tian and the Heavenly Sword Sect. While cleaning up the battlefield, Lin Haoyu and the other elders of the Lin family came to Lin Tian¡¯s side and asked, ¡°Lin Tian, who are these experts who have come to support us?¡± ¡°Each and every one of them has extraordinary strength. We can not underestimate them!¡± Lin Tian pointed at Wang Shouyun who was walking over, and said, ¡°This is the young sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He is the one who led the people of the Heavenly Sword Sect to help us this time.¡± ¡°What? The Heavenly Sword Sect!¡± After Lin Haoyu and the Lin family heard Lin Tian¡¯s introduction, they were all shocked. Lin Haoyu already knew about the heavenly sword sect. After all, before he lost his cultivation, he had already left to think about which sect he wanted to join in the future? And the Heavenly Sword sect was one of the sects Lin Haoyu had recognized. Therefore, Lin Haoyu had a certain understanding of the Heavenly Sword Sect. In Lin Haoyu¡¯s memory, the Heavenly Sword sect was one of the top sects in the Qing Xuan Continent. That was because Lin Zhishan could not help the Lin family, and Lin Tian could invite the heavenly sword sect. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that you, Lin Tian, would be able to call the Heavenly Sword sect back after going out to train for a while.¡± Lin Haoyu said slowly. At this moment, Wang Shouyun heard the conversation between Lin Tian and the Lin family and immediately said, ¡°Lin Tian didn¡¯t invite us over to help, but I volunteered to organize the disciples of the Heavenly Sword sect to come to the Lin family to help Lin Tian.¡± ¡°D * mn, Lin Tian, you saved the life of the young master of the Heavenly Sword Sect? You let him come to help you?¡±Lin Haoyu said in shock. At this moment, Lin Tian said, ¡°How did you know about this? I remember that I only told Wang Shouyun about this.¡± ¡°Ah, I can¡¯t be right!¡±Lin Haoyu said excitedly. ¡°That¡¯s right. Some time ago, I was hunted down by the young Master of the North Mystery Sect, Ye Chenwu, in the Demonic Beast Mountains.¡± Then, Wang Shouyun told Lin Haoyu and the other members of the Lin family about his relationship with Lin Tian. ¡°Later, I met Lin Tian. Lin Tian saved my life under ye Chenwu¡¯s hands. He even blocked a fatal blow for me when he escorted me back to the Heavenly Sword Sect.¡± ¡°Therefore, Lin Tian is my savior and a person who owes the Heavenly Sword sect a favor.¡± Hearing that Lin Tian actually defeated ye Chenwu and saved Wang Shouyun¡¯s life, Lin Haoyu couldn¡¯t help but exclaim in surprise: ¡°Lin Tian, you really have hidden your strength well. You defeated a top-tier Heaven¡¯s favorite of the Qing Xuan Continent.¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright.¡± Lin Tian said embarrassedly, but he didn¡¯t say the reason why he became stronger. At night, the Lin family gathered people in the Jade Lotus town to hold a banquet. This was to celebrate the Lin family¡¯s passing of the calamity of extermination and also to host the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s Wang Shouyun and the others. After all, the Heavenly Sword sect had sent the young sect master and a core elder, Xie Ling. The Lin family didn¡¯t dare to neglect them. ¡°Young sect master, elder Xie, and all the Heavenly Sword Sect¡¯s cultivators thank you very much for your help this time. Once again, I represent the Lin family to toast you.¡± At the banquet, Lin Zhenshan raised his wine cup and said to Wang Shouyun and the others. After saying that, he raised his head and directly drank the wine. ¡°Patriarch Lin, you¡¯re too kind.¡± Wang Shouyun said humbly. After Lin Zhenshan drank the wine in his hand, he said to Lin Tian, who was beside him, ¡°Lin Tian, this time, the Lin family survived this calamity. You can say that you¡¯ve contributed the most. ¡°I¡¯ve already decided to give you a small independent courtyard in the Lin family compound. If you have any other requests, feel free to mention them.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need, family head. I¡¯m already satisfied with being able to obtain a small independent courtyard.¡± ¡°Moreover, I came back purely to solve the Lin family¡¯s problems. I didn¡¯t think of coming back only because I wanted to obtain something.¡± Lin Tian smiled and replied. Lin Tian felt that there was nothing in the Lin family that could attract him. After hearing Lin Tian¡¯s words, the image of Lin Tian in their hearts couldn¡¯t help but become much greater. At this moment, a heavenly sword sect disciple suddenly came to the Lin family. Under the leadership of the Lin family¡¯s servant, he found Wang Shouyun. After seeing Wang Shouyun, the disciple of the Heavenly Sword sect immediately said, ¡°Young Master, the sect leader has ordered you to immediately return to the sect and prepare to head to the red mist illusory realm.¡± ¡°Hasn¡¯t the immortal boat heading to the red mist illusory realm already set off?¡± Wang Shouyun asked with a puzzled expression. ¡°The sect leader has received news that there seems to be an accident in the red mist illusory realm, causing the opening of the secret realm to be delayed.¡± ¡°Furthermore, our heavenly sword sect has added a few more spots.¡± Upon hearing this, Wang Shouyun¡¯s face immediately lit up with joy. He said happily, ¡°In that case, Lin Tian can also head together to the red mist illusory realm.¡± ¡°Oh?¡± Lin Tian, who was enjoying the delicacies at the banquet, heard Wang Shouyun¡¯s words and thought to himself, ¡°From its looks, I can¡¯t afford to be idle for even a moment.¡± Following that, Lin Tian said a simple goodbye to Lin Yu¡¯er and immediately left with Wang Shouyun, preparing to head towards the mayfly illusion.
