Lin Xiu stood there quietly and smelled the blood on the tip of his nose. Then, he stomped his right foot on the ground!
A two-meter deep crack appeared on the originally flat ground. Lin Xiu raised his leg and kicked the corpse into the pit. He clenched his fist and stopped thinking about it.
Beside the tent, Lin Wentian was adding firewood to the temporary fire. When he saw Lin Xiu, he moved to the side and gestured for Lin Xiu to sit down.
"Everyone has a reason to become stronger. Little Xiu, tell me, why do you want to become stronger?" Lin Wentian looked at his grandson.
After thinking about it, the pale face of his father appeared in Lin Xiu's mind, as well as the figure of his mother who worked hard every day, then he said slowly, "In order to let the people I care about not suffer, in order to protect the feelings in my heart."
"If the world is really dark, I am willing to burn myself just to bring a moment of light to the people I care about."
Lin Wentian looked at Lin Xiu with admiration and felt that his grandson had walked out of that murderous state. Lin Wentian then changed the topic, "Little Xiu, although your strength is not bad among the younger generation, your cultivation level is still too low."
Lin Xiu nodded his head, he understood his weakness. His physical strength was strong and his elemental energy was also vigorous, but his cultivation level was still lower than others.
After thinking about it, he looked at his grandfather, "Grandfather, according to you, in your opinion, what are my chances of winning in the City Lord Residence selection in a month's time?"
After pondering for a moment, Lin Wentian looked at his grandson with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"The degree of your elemental energy is comparable to a warrior in the later stages of the Blood Refinement Realm, and the strength of your physical body is even stronger. According to the information gathered by the clan, there are only five disciples in the city who have broken through to the Tempered Bone Realm, and the City Lord Residence selection has a quota of five people. I'm afraid your current strength is not enough. "
Hearing Lin Wentian\'s words, Lin Xiu\'s expression darkened. This special training was not only to nurture their combat abilities but also to allow them to break through under the immense pressure from their families. He had to grab hold of this opportunity.
Lin Wentian sighed slightly and then said, "Alright, don't think so much, there is still a month, do your best."
With that, Lin Wentian returned to the tent.
Looking at the night sky, Lin Xiu collected his thoughts and jumped onto a tree. He sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate again.
The elemental energy in his body surged like a river, and the mist-like elemental energy filled Lin Xiu's dantian. He silently recited the Thousand Layer Body Refinement Technique and focused on controlling the flow of elemental energy in his meridians, then slowly seeping into every inch of his flesh and blood.
The moon was bright and the stars were few as the crows flew south.
Sparkling and translucent dewdrops began to adorn Lin Xiu's hair. It was already autumn and the temperature at midnight was very low, but Lin Xiu was completely unaware of it.
The Thousand Layer Body Refinement Technique was indeed a rare technique. Every time he cultivated, his physique would become stronger.
After a few days of cultivation, Lin Xiu's essence qi had reached the peak of the middle stage of the Blood Refining Realm. Compared to the late stage, he was only a thin layer away. It would not be difficult for him to break through to the late stage of the Blood Refining Realm after the special training ended.
He opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yang who had come to his side. He nodded slightly and did not say much.
"Lin Xiu, you are very strong. Lin Feng and I are not your opponent, but there will definitely be a strong person in the Tempered Bone Realm in the selection of the City Lord Mansion. I hope you can be selected." Lin Yang looked at his cousin's back and said.
A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth. He realized that the genius of the family that he had defeated before was not inflexible and had a strong sense of belonging to the family.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
…
After a night, the group of five once again embarked on an unknown journey. After the incident last night, Lin Xiu had become much quieter, his sharp eyes observing the surroundings seriously. Lin Wentian saw all of this and was filled with joy.
If a person wanted to go far on the road of cultivation, it was obviously not enough to have the heart of a strong warrior. He also needed a meticulous mind and a calm personality. Lin Xiu was very qualified for this.
After walking for a while, Lin Xiu suddenly heard a rustling sound. He raised his hand and a ball of elemental energy shot out from his fingertip and hit a tree beside him.
"Pa!"
A jet-black insect fell from the top of the tree, its charred body was still wriggling.
Lin Wentian took a step forward and whispered to the others, "This is an Underworld Sifting Insect. Damn it, when did this thing appear here."
Seeing Lin Wentian's ugly expression, the others could not help but feel anxious.
Lin Xiu pondered for a moment, then flicked his finger with elemental energy and burned the Underworld Sifting Insect into ashes.
"The Underworld Sifting Insect itself is not that big of a deal. The key is that this insect has a special ability to release a smell. This smell does not affect humans, but it can easily attract venomous snakes and insects in the forest. What's worse is that these insects often appear in groups. "
As though to verify Lin Wentian's words, the densely packed Underworld Sifting Insects suddenly appeared from the treetops and bushes by the roadside. Then, a layer of smoke gradually rose from their bodies.
"Quickly run, don't wait for those venomous creatures to be attracted over. Otherwise, it will be really troublesome." Lin Wentian shouted.
The others did not dare to delay and quickly followed Lin Wentian's figure.
Just as they moved, a green venomous snake that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl suddenly popped its head out from the tree beside them. The scarlet snake tongue flicked in and out as a pair of vertical pupils stared coldly at the six "prey" in front of it.
Lin Yang pulled out the long sword on his back and slashed at the snake's head.
The surprising thing was that the long sword actually could not cut through the scales of the green snake and only left a faint white mark on its scales.
Lin Wentian was anxious, special training was one thing, but he could not watch the geniuses of the family die in the stomach of the snake.
Just as the snake was in pain and twisted its body to pounce on Lin Yang, Lin Wentian finally made his move.
A small dagger appeared in his hand, and his figure appeared between Lin Yang and the big snake like a ghost. Then, he fiercely stamped his foot on the ground, and his whole body suddenly flew towards the big snake like a flying sword from a bow.
"Crack!"
Lin Wentian was indeed an expert of the Harmonious Spirit Realm. The scales that Lin Yang could not even cut through with all his strength were shattered by Lin Wentian's light attack. A huge wound that was so deep that bones could be seen appeared on the head of the snake.
