Murong Qianling looked at Lin Xuan's back, her eyes flashing. The woman behind her sighed, "With his strength, I estimate that he will soon challenge a core disciple. At that time, he may be able to enter the Trial Ground of Blood."
"Trial Ground of Blood!" Murong Qianling exclaimed, "The trial ground that opens once every seven years!"
The woman smiled, "When it opens this time, a group of disciples with potential will be sent in. Even you will have the opportunity to enter. This time, you must seize this opportunity!"
"Trial Ground of Blood?" Murong Qianling's eyes had a trace of excitement.
Lin Xuan didn't know about these matters. He returned to his residence and opened a simple defensive array. Then, he treated his injuries and consolidated his realm.
Inside his body, under the pressure of Elder Xue, the potential of his spiritual power had been stimulated, and the eighth spiritual vein had loosened a lot. Lin Xuan took this opportunity to constantly circulate the Longevity Art. Two hours later, he broke through to the eighth level of the Pulse Condensation Period.
The internal injuries on his body were quickly healed under the effects of the Longevity Art. Lin Xuan turned his gaze to the sword intent seed.
The golden sword intent seed was much larger than before, and the aura it emitted was frightening. Lin Xuan knew that he had finally comprehended a trace of sword intent, and not just sword force.
"I didn't think that your sword intent seed would germinate so quickly." Wine Lord repeatedly praised, "You have both the thunder and wind attributes in your body. You can consider fusing them into the wind and thunder attributes."
"Since you have recognized me as your master, I will teach you well!" Wine Lord said with a serious face.
Next, Wine Lord began to ask about Lin Xuan's cultivation progress, including some of the martial arts he had learned. Lin Xuan answered them one by one, and through his communication with Wine Lord, he learned that his Longevity Art had only reached the first level.
Besides the Long Sword Art, the Phantom Thunder Steps had reached the Large Success stage, and he could condense thunder phantoms. The Gale Sword Art was only missing the last move, and the Protective Sword Art was at the peak of the first level.
However, Lin Xuan's greatest harvest was the Seed of Sword Intent. He had comprehended a trace of Sword Intent, and it had increased his attack power by several times. Now, if he met a martial artist of the Pulse Condensation Stage, he would be able to put up a fight.
Moreover, the Seed of Sword Intent also had many potential benefits. For example, Lin Xuan's mental strength and willpower were extremely strong. This would allow him to have a strong resistance to Temptation Illusion attacks in the future.
Under Wine Lord's guidance, Lin Xuan began to consider merging the Gale Sword Art and the Thunder Sword Art together …
The next morning, Lin Xuan went to the Herbal Hall as usual.
His main purpose was to pay attention to a special mission, a mission to rescue the Hundred Herb Hall, in which he could obtain herbs that could restore the soul. Although Wine Lord had awakened, Lin Xuan wanted to have more of these herbs just in case.
This mission was still in progress, but according to the previous situations, the chances of success were not high.
When Lin Xuan asked again, the Managing Elder informed him that the team that had accepted this mission had failed, and Lin Xuan could accept it.
Immediately, he did not hesitate and accepted the mission.
However, this mission was a level six mission, and was extremely dangerous. It was not something that a single disciple could complete.
This was a mission for five people. Lin Xuan took a token and went back to wait.
Three days later, news came from the Herbal Hall that there had been a change to the mission.
Lin Xuan prepared everything and went to the Herbal Hall. However, he was somewhat surprised by what happened next. The Managing Elder stood to the side with a wry smile, and explained the reason to Lin Xuan.
It turned out that the number of disciples who had come to accept the mission far exceeded the stipulated number.
"Isn't this mission very dangerous? Why are there so many people?" Lin Xuan did not understand.
"Because there was a core disciple who accepted the mission this time, so all the other disciples rushed over like ducks." The Managing Elder explained, "In this situation, there needs to be a simple competition. Only the strongest will have the chance to take the mission."
"So that's how it is!" Lin Xuan understood. He strode over and said to the group of people, "I took a token for the Hundred Herb Hall mission. If anyone is not convinced, you can challenge me!"
The crowd that was still arguing completely quieted down after hearing Lin Xuan's words. The group of disciples looked at Lin Xuan cautiously, their eyes full of fear.
They had seen Lin Xuan kill Zhang Qian with their own eyes. Furthermore, he did not back down even when facing Elder Xue. They did not dare to provoke such a fierce person.
"So it was Junior Brother Lin who took one of the tokens. If that's the case, let's fight for the remaining three." A disciple laughed and said.
The Managing Elder was surprised. He thought that these people would snatch it by force, or even gang up to bully him. After all, Lin Xuan's cultivation was not very high.
However, he did not expect that when this group of people saw Lin Xuan, it was as if they had seen a core disciple. They even spoke carefully.
"That's strange!" The Managing Elder was amazed.
Not long after, three people won the battle. These three people were all at the eighth level of the Meridian Stage. Two of them were youths, and one was a young girl.
The three of them greeted Lin Xuan, then stood together to wait for the other core disciple. Through the three disciples, Lin Xuan learned that the core disciple was called Fan Chong. His cultivation was at the ninth level of the Meridian Stage, and he was ranked ninth on the stone tablet.
Core disciples were definitely existences that all inner sect disciples had to look up to. Every core disciple was abnormally strong, and could be said to be the king of the same level. Even fighting across realms was not difficult for them.
Therefore, this difficult level six mission became extremely popular with the addition of a core disciple.
And this mission was a rescue mission. Hundred Herb Hall was located in a border town in Yunzhou. Because it was attacked by demonic beasts, the town was in danger.
Most of the people from Hundred Herb Hall escaped, but a few of the pharmacists were trapped in the town, along with hundreds of precious herbs from Hundred Herb Hall.
The surviving members of Hundred Herb Hall sent a request for help to the Black Heaven Sect, and thus this mission was created.
Lin Xuan understood the mission while waiting for the core disciple to arrive. However, after the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, no one appeared. After an hour, still no one appeared.
"Could it be that senior apprentice brother Fan forgot?" A few disciples guessed. Lin Xuan frowned slightly, but did not say anything.
After waiting for a full two hours, the core disciple finally appeared.
This was a youth with an arrogant face. His eyes were always looking up, and even his chin was raised. He casually glanced at Lin Xuan and the others, then frowned and said, "With such low cultivation, you're just going to die!"
The three youths behind Lin Xuan changed their expressions. They did not expect the core disciple to say such words. Although they could not compare to the core disciple, these words were too hurtful.
Lin Xuan also frowned slightly. He glanced at the people behind the core disciple, and immediately understood that this guy wanted to bring his own people.
However, he had accepted this mission first, and it was very important to him. How could he just give up like this?
