"Brother …"
As soon as Lin Huang walked out of the meeting room, he bumped into Lin Xin who was standing at the door.
Naturally, he knew that Lin Xin had been waiting there more than an hour ago. Huang Tianpu and the rest must have leaked the news of his return.
He could not leave the meeting room, so Lin Xin did not barge in to disturb him. She had been waiting outside.
Seeing Lin Xin again, Lin Huang noticed that her combat strength had reached the peak of imperial-level. The intensity of her aura was extremely close to virtual god-level.
"You've grown taller again after a year." Lin Huang patted Lin Xin's head while smiling.
A year ago, Lin Xin was just over 1.6 meters tall. She was close to 1.7 meters now. Her shoulder-length hair was tied into a ponytail, and the childishness on her face had faded. She had grown into a beautiful lady.
Lin Xin said nothing, but tears were welling up in her eyes.
"Look, I didn't say anything. Why are you crying?" Lin Huang looked at Lin Xin while smiling. It had been a year since they last met, but this girl was clearly much calmer now. It was clear that she had gone through many things in the past year.
"I'm not crying!" Lin Xin covered her eyes with her palms, secretly wiping away the tears in her eyes.
Her tears were gone, but her eyes were still a little red.
"Alright, you're not crying. It's not considered crying if your tears don't fall to the ground," Lin Huang said and handed her a pack of tissues.
Lin Xin took the tissues and wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes. She then lifted her head to look at Lin Huang again.
"Brother, how have you been this year?"
Although she was outside the meeting room, she could not hear what was being discussed in the meeting room due to the barrier. However, based on her knowledge, there were many powerhouses in the great world. Lin Huang must have suffered a lot when he left with his combat strength below virtual god-level.
"I'm alright." Lin Huang shook his head. "Although there are many experts in the great world, I'm not the type to make enemies easily. In fact, most of the time was spent cultivating and running around. There weren't many dramatic encounters. It's not like the protagonist will be hunted down for all sorts of reasons no matter where he goes. "
"You, on the other hand, have changed a lot over the past year. Not only has his imperial-level reached its peak, but even his Sword Dao has elevated to level-5 … Hmm, I don't think he's been slacking on his Sword Dao cultivation. I wonder how's his gun cultivation going? "
"I didn't slack off in my firearms training, okay?" Lin Xin said angrily, "I'm ranked on the Firearms Master Leaderboard."
"Oh, let me see." After saying that, Lin Huang opened the ranking list. After glancing through it, he was slightly surprised.
Lin Xin's name was ranked first among the imperial-level gunmasters.
Lin Xin, who had been secretly observing Lin Huang's expression, revealed a proud expression when she saw the surprise on Lin Huang's face.
"Oh, not bad. You're ranked first. It seems like you didn't slack off, "Lin Huang praised while smiling.
"I can't break through virtual god-level, so I can only spend my time practicing gunfighting and sword skills," Lin Xin mumbled softly.
"You can't break through virtual god-level?" Lin Huang was stunned to hear that. "Can't you elevate your combat strength by eating Life Crystals? According to this elevation method, theoretically, you only need to change your Life Crystals into something with Divine Power, such as Divine Stones or Divine Crystals. "
"No, I've tried using Divine Stones and Divine Crystals, but there's no reaction." Lin Xin shook her head helplessly. "Mr. Fu asked me to try killing virtual god-level monsters. I tried, but there's still no reaction after killing them."
"It's obvious that you have a special elevation condition …" Lin Huang frowned slightly and thought for a moment. "Have you tried eating Godheads?"
"Eating Godheads?!" Lin Xin's eyes widened when she heard that. "Didn't they say that even True Gods can't destroy Godheads? Can you really eat something like that? "
"Cultivators usually don't eat Life Crystals. You've eaten God knows how many of them like peanuts." Lin Huang could not help but complain. "If you don't want to try it, we'll think of something else."
"Then … I'll try it." Lin Xin hesitated for a moment but nodded anyway.
He took out a Virtual God rank-1 Godhead from his storage space and handed it to Lin Xin.
Lin Xin took the Godhead with a strange expression.
It was a Godhead that was completely red with some black patterns. It looked a little like a gem.
Lin Xin held it in front of her eyes and observed it for a while. Then, she closed her eyes and stuffed the Godhead into her mouth.
"Don't force it if you can't bite through it. Don't swallow it directly," Lin Huang added immediately.
However, at that moment, the expression on Lin Xin's face became even more strange. "You're too late. It's already in."
"…" Lin Huang was speechless. "Don't you feel like you're going to choke?"
"No, it tastes like pudding. It melts in my mouth, so I accidentally swallowed it."
"Pudding? Even I can't bite through this thing." A virtual god-level Godhead could be said to be the toughest thing in a Virtual God's body. It was even stronger than a god relic. Even if one was a Virtual God rank-1, the strength of the Godhead in one's body could only be destroyed by Rule Bending Power. Naturally, it was inedible to ordinary cultivators.
Therefore, when he heard Lin Xin describe it as like pudding, Lin Huang found it a little hard to imagine.
"Do you feel anything? Or do you need to spend some time refining it first? "Seeing that Lin Xin did not look like she had eaten something unclean, Lin Huang asked again.
"It seems like it's possible!" Lin Xin only responded after immersing her consciousness into her inner world for a moment, "The Godhead disintegrated automatically in my inner world. Not only did it release a huge amount of Divine Power, but it also left behind a lot of inherited memories. However, one Godhead doesn't seem to be enough … "
As soon as Lin Xin finished speaking, Lin Huang, who was standing aside, grabbed a handful of Virtual God rank-1 Godheads.
"The Godhead will fill you up. Let's see how much you can eat."
Lin Xin took the Godheads and tossed them into her mouth one by one. She swallowed them quickly like jelly beans.
She only stopped after eating nine Godheads in a row.
"It seems like it's almost done. I feel like the Divine Power in my body is reaching saturation. I need to go into closed-door cultivation!"
She passed the remaining Godheads to Lin Huang as soon as she was done speaking.
"Take it yourself. What if you need it later?" Lin Huang did not take it. Instead, he handed her a storage ring. "Apart from Virtual God rank-1 to 9 Godheads, there are also some Divine Crystals in here. You can use them first."
"Thank you, brother!" Lin Xin turned around and left in a hurry after thanking him.
She could not wait to elevate to virtual god-level.
"This girl's physique is really enviable." Lin Huang could not help but sigh in his heart as he watched Lin Xin leave. "If I had this physique, I'd definitely have reached heavenly god-level long ago, let alone lord-level!"
