What was even more terrifying was that an extremely exaggerated aura of the Martial Body Realm suddenly appeared in the residence on the east side of the outer sect’s courtyard.
This feeling caused Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan to be shocked.
This aura was… the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm!
“Oh…”
Gong Ziliang looked at Lin Xiao’s residence outside the window curiously.
“Look, look, am I right?”
“Little Xiao is definitely ill. Ah no… there’s definitely something wrong with him!”
“To advance by one grade a day, who in the entire Martial Spirit Continent can do this? Who can be so abnormal?”
“Could it be that he’s been doing this chores in the sect all day and discovered some shocking cultivation techniques and martial techniques?”
“I’m going to suck up to Little Xiao!” Shangguan Yan immediately jumped up and said excitedly.
Gong Ziliang cried out in surprise, “This… is really unbelievable…”
…
In Lin Xiao’s residence.
“Elder Yao, this is great. I have advanced to another stage!”
In the room, the green-clothed Lin Xiao with short black hair slowly opened his eyes.
Then, Lin Xiao subconsciously took a breath. The spiritual qi in the room turned into a stream that was absorbed into his body.
Fortunately, there were no other cultivators present. If anyone saw this scene, they would be stunned.
The seventh-stage Martial Body Realm could not absorb spiritual qi like the Qi Refinement Realm. Usually, the Martial Body Realm had to sit down and sense the spiritual qi of heaven and earth without any distractions, slowly taking it for themselves.
Now, with a gasp, spiritual qi entered his body.
This was indeed insane…
“Not bad, not bad. Little Xiao, as long as you break through to the Qi Refinement Realm, you can officially cultivate the Spirit Burning Imprisonment Technique.”
“You have to know that every realm requires burning spiritual qi and cultivating all over nine times. That’s extremely difficult!”
“You have to think carefully!”
An old voice sounded from the bottom of Lin Xiao’s heart. Only he could hear this voice.
When he heard this, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, Elder Yao. I, Lin Xiao, have decided that the former prodigy of the Lin family is already dead!”
“The person speaking to you now is only an outer sect disciple of the medium-grade sect, the Profound Heaven Sect’s Lin Xiao!”
When he said this, the room was silent.
Then, a voice that had been waiting for a long time slowly sounded in Lin Xiao’s heart, “Sigh, it was all my fault. Forget it. From today onwards, I’ll teach you pill refinement techniques!”
“The resources required for the Spirit Burning Imprisonment Technique are too much to think of for now. You have to re-cultivate every realm nine times, and you don’t have great wealth now. This path of cultivation is not easy to walk.”
“Fortunately, your talent is not bad. In addition, your luck is not bad.”
“If not for that pool of smelly water, it would have been difficult for us to meet again.”
At this moment, Lin Xiao revealed a bitter smile and said, “Elder Yao, although I’m a little unwilling, now that things have come to this, I’ve also thought it through. You don’t have to blame yourself.”
“I understand that you’re doing this for the sake of survival. Although I’ve suffered quite a bit over the years, now that you’ve appeared, my opportunity has also come.”
“Look, I’ve advanced three stages in three days.”
Hearing this, Elder Yao felt a little relieved and laughed happily, “Hahaha, right, right, right, that’s right! From today onwards, the two of us will live together. I also hope that one day, I can return to that continent!”
“However, speaking of which, we really have to thank that smelly water. Oh right, Little Xiao, do you feel anything? Does that smelly water feel familiar?”
Hearing Elder Yao’s question, Lin Xiao’s heart paused. He nodded slightly and said thoughtfully, “This is indeed the case. Although that water is extremely smelly and made me unconscious for an entire day and night, it made me encounter you again. I really have to thank it.”
“Moreover, I can sense that the smelly water seems to be from someone I’m familiar with.”
“I haven’t seen him in a few days. I wonder how he’s been recently and if his realm has changed.”
Hearing this, Elder Yao slowly exhaled and said, “I also feel that familiar feeling. It’s not far from you, but let’s not talk about this for the time being.”
“When you break through to the Qi Refinement Realm, I’ll hand the pill refinement technique and the Spirit Burning Imprisonment Technique to you. After that, you can also choose to descend the mountain and enter the mortal realm. You can use the refinement of medicinal pills to earn more spirit stones to let you burn the spiritual qi.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiao nodded. Then, he stood up, opened the door, and walked towards the courtyard.
Two souls in one body was originally the most common trope in fantasy novels, but now, it happened to Lin Xiao of the Martial Spirit Continent.
There were too many things that had happened. This was also something that Lin Xiao was unwilling to mention now.
The moment Lin Xiao stood up and opened the door, he was stunned. He saw two former friends outside the door staring at him.
Lin Xiao: “???”
Gong Ziliang: “???”
Shangguan Yan: “???”
The three of them were stunned for a moment.
At this moment, as Gong Ziliang sized up Lin Xiao, he nudged Shangguan Yan with his shoulder and whispered, “Heh, Little Yan, do you think… you can defeat Little Xiao now?”
The moment he saw Lin Xiao, he saw that the dejectedness had disappeared. Now, he was actually like a sharp sword that was extremely dazzling!
This was a new life!
When Shangguan Yan heard this, he smacked his lips and said, “Hmm… I don’t know. I’m 50% confident, maybe.”
Immediately, Gong Ziliang was stunned and looked at Shangguan Yan in surprise.
Damn!
Was he bragging?
50%?
However, that was true. Shangguan Yan’s current cultivation level was at the ninth-stage Martial Body Realm, and Lin Xiao was at the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm. This difference was two stages, and Shangguan Yan indeed had the advantage.
However, since Shangguan Yan himself said 50%, it was obvious that he had also seen the commotion that Lin Xiao had made in the room just now.
Although he was at the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm, the spiritual qi in his body was extremely shocking.
Therefore, Shangguan Yan did not dare to be confident in completely winning against Lin Xiao. He could only say that he was about 50% confident in winning.
However, the feeling Lin Xiao gave Gong Ziliang was that even if he was at the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm, he would definitely be able to match up to 50 people in the outer sect competition!
Of course, there was also another abnormality. That was, Lin Xiao rose three stages in three days!
At this moment, Lin Xiao saw that Gong Ziliang and Shangguan Yan were discussing something softly, so he asked faintly, “What are the two of you looking at? Looking at my handsome face that you haven’t seen in a few days?”
When he heard that, Shangguan Yan heaved a sigh of relief and said, “It’s confirmed. This is our Little Xiao. He’s still so shameless.”
Gong Ziliang nodded and said, “Yes, like you, he’s really narcissistic.”
Lin Xiao agreed, “The three of us are the same.”
“Hahaha…”
The three of them looked up and laughed..
