On Sunday morning, Lin Huang and Lin Xin arrived at a mountain at the border of Wangyou Forest.
Thunder stood at the top of the mountain and Lin Huang summoned Bloody. "Bloody, help me look for a Purple Dress Demon. It would be best if it's an iron-level rank-1 monster. If you can't find one, an iron-level rank-2 monster would do."
Bloody immediately released a large number of Leech Pods and started searching the forest.
In less than half an hour, Bloody found what Lin Huang was looking for.
"I found it. There's an iron-level rank-1 Purple Dress Demon in the north of the center of the forest." Bloody extended two of its antennae and marked the coordinates on the map of Lin Huang and Lin Xin's Emperor's Heart Rings.
"Alright, I'll wait here. If I get too close, I might affect your Life Seed." Lin Huang leaped off Thunder's back. "Thunder, leave the area as soon as you bring her to the destination."
Thunder nodded. It flapped its wings and left with Lin Xin.
More than 10 minutes later, Thunder landed on an empty ground. After Lin Xin got off, it flapped its wings and disappeared.
Lin Xin, who was wearing a long shirt and pants, looked at the coordinates that Bloody had marked. It was less than a kilometer away from her.
Soon, she had two GrayEagle17s in her hands. She checked the magazines and confirmed that they were all armor-piercing bullets. She then headed towards the monster.
A kilometer was not a long journey. Lin Xin arrived at the destination soon and saw the Purple Dress Demon.
Hiding beside the bushes, Lin Xin was panicking as she looked at the withered land and the monster that was staring blankly at the same spot.
Although the Purple Dress Demon was only an iron-level rank-1 monster, it looked no different from the iron-level rank-3 monster that Lin Huang had killed a year ago.
Her face was a strange white mask, and she had six jade-like crystal arms. Her purple dress was floating about 20 to 30 centimeters off the ground, and her feet couldn't be seen.
"This thing is just a little ugly, there's nothing scary about it. You're a Gun Mechanic, just don't let it get close to you. " Lin Huang's voice came from the earpiece on his Emperor's Heart Ring. He was observing Lin Xin's situation through Bloody's Leech Pods. "If you feel nervous, take a few deep breaths to calm yourself down."
Lin Xin did as she was told. Bloody's Leech Pods were not considered as complete life forms, so it would not affect the rules of obtaining Life Seeds. Knowing that, Lin Huang got Bloody to monitor the entire process.
After taking a few deep breaths, Lin Xin's heartbeat slowed down. She looked at the two GrayEagle17 in her hands and whispered to herself, "I'm a Gun Mechanic. As long as I don't let it get close to me, I should be able to kill it with a set of gunfighting skills!"
As soon as she finished her sentence, Lin Xin stood up and activated her gunfighting skill, Shoot at Random. Countless armor-piercing bullets shot out, drowning the Purple Dress Demon in an instant.
A series of explosions were heard, and there was a woman's scream and shriek. The sound did not stop, and neither did Lin Xin stop firing her guns.
She didn't stop her attack until the miserable howl disappeared completely.
As the dust from the explosions faded, Lin Xin saw that the Purple Dress Demon was lying on the ground. There were not many parts of its body that were intact, and the mask on its face was broken. Apparently, it was dead.
"It's dead. Get closer to it now. Don't wait for the Life Seed to collapse." Lin Huang's voice was heard.
Lin Xin heard him and immediately walked towards the dead body. Just when she was a few steps closer, a white glow shot out from the broken mask of the Purple Dress Demon, covering Lin Xin completely …
Ten minutes later, Lin Xin woke up.
"Wait here for a while. I'll get you with Thunder." Seeing that Lin Xin had opened her eyes, Lin Huang's voice was heard through the earpiece.
Soon, Thunder and Lin Huang landed next to Lin Xin.
After recalling Thunder and Bloody, Lin Huang took out a storage ring and passed it to Lin Xin. "There are 10,000 Life Crystals in there. They're mainly for you to absorb Life Power to fill up your Life Wheel. Of course, you can also use them as pocket money. "
"That's too much …" Lin Xin knew very well that a standard unit of Life Crystal was equivalent to 100 years of Life Crystal pieces. A year of Life Crystal pieces was equivalent to 100,000 credit points. 10,000 Life Crystals was a fortune to many gold-level people.
"It's not much. Training is a money-burning process. The later you get, the more Life Crystals you'll need." As soon as he finished his sentence, Lin Huang did not say anything else. He summoned his dimensional relic and dragged Lin Xin into it. They returned to the Martial Arts Academy.
Compared to Lin Huang's previous level-up, Lin Xin's kill this time was effortless. She used the armor-breaking bullets and gunfighting skills to blast the Purple Dress Demon into pieces, completing the transformation of her Life Wheel.
A few days after leveling up, aside from attending classes, Lin Xin spent most of her time filling up her Life Wheel in the training room. After leveling up to iron-level, she could now learn many beginner gunfighting skills that she was previously unable to learn. She knew that her biggest problem was that she did not have enough Life Power.
Time flew by and it was Wednesday.
In the evening, as Lin Huang was training with Bai, his Emperor's Heart Ring vibrated.
As soon as he picked up the call, Lin Xin's face was projected.
"Xin Er, what's wrong?"
"Brother, is there anyone else next to you?" Lin Xin asked.
"Only Bai."
"Oh, I think there's something wrong with my body." Lin Xin said hesitantly.
"Where are you? I'll go look for you! "Lin Huang frowned.
"I'm in training room No. 28."
"Give me a minute, I'll be right there!" Lin Huang turned around and looked at Bai. "Let's call it a day. I don't know how Xin Er is doing."
Bai nodded, and Lin Huang recalled him immediately. He then left the battle training ground quickly.
Three minutes later, Lin Huang knocked on the door of training room No. 28. Lin Xin immediately opened the door. As soon as Lin Huang entered, she locked the door immediately.
"What's wrong?" Lin Huang asked immediately.
"Brother, do you remember that Xiao 7 can swallow Life Crystals directly?" Lin Xin asked.
Lin Huang nodded.
"I realized that I can too …" Lin Xin said softly.
"What do you mean? You swallowed a Life Crystal by accident? "Lin Huang did not understand what Lin Xin meant.
"It wasn't by accident. I did it on purpose …" Lin Xin shook her head and explained, "Here's what happened. I've been absorbing Life Power from Life Crystals to fill up my Life Wheel. I thought the normal way was too slow. I only absorbed tens of Life Crystals after a few days. Then, I thought that Xiao 7 could swallow Life Crystals directly. I then put a Life Crystal in my mouth to test it … As soon as the Life Crystal entered my mouth, it fell automatically and entered my body through my throat. Then, I realized that the Life Power in my Life Wheel has increased tremendously. I tried two more and it's the same … "
"Is that even possible?" Lin Huang thought it was unbelievable. He had never heard of a human absorbing Life Crystals directly. If someone could do that, that person's combat strength would increase much faster than Lin Huang's. Lin Huang would still need to go out to fight monsters while the others could just sit at home and eat Life Crystals like candy.
"Is there something wrong with my body?" Lin Xin asked worriedly.
"Eat one for me to see later." Lin Huang placed his hand on Lin Xin's shoulder and inserted his Life Power into Lin Xin's body, spreading all over Lin Xin's body. "You can do it now."
Lin Xin took out a Life Crystal from her storage space and threw it into her mouth. She opened her mouth, allowing Lin Huang to see the changes in the Life Crystal. The Life Crystal turned into a white mist on her pink tongue in less than two seconds and went into her throat.
Lin Huang then sensed a gush of Life Power entering Lin Xin's body all of a sudden and went into Lin Xin's Life Wheel.
Lin Huang was even more confused as he saw that. The intrusion of Life Power did not make sense as it did not go through any of the Life Power routes in Lin Xin's body. It appeared out of nowhere and went into Lin Xin's Life Wheel in an instant.
After checking Lin Xin's Life Wheel, Lin Huang then withdrew his Life Power.
"It seems like there's nothing wrong with your body. Although it's a strange way to obtain Life Power, it might be because of your unique physique. I think it might be the effect of some unique bloodline that was activated after you leveled up to iron-level. Don't worry about it … "Lin Huang comforted her.
"Is that so …" Lin Xin was relieved.
"I'll keep it to myself. Don't tell anyone about it, including your best friends in the dorm. If someone were to leak the news about your unique physique, it might attract the attention of the underworld. They might even capture you and use you as a lab rat. "Lin Huang warned her.
"Yes, I promise I won't tell anyone!" Lin Xin nodded immediately. The incident with the Saints had made her afraid of the underworld.
"Don't break through to iron-level rank-2 for the time being after the first circle of Life Power in your Life Wheel is filled. I'll get you a disguise relic. You can break through after you've put on the disguise relic. "Lin Huang did not want Lin Xin to expose her speed of leveling up.
One must know that Lin Xin had plenty of Life Crystals at the moment. If she did not need to hunt for Life Seeds at each level, with her current physique, she might be able to level up to gold-level rank-3 in less than a week by consuming Life Crystals. It would be ten times easier than what Lin Huang had done.
"A relic …" Lin Xin's eyes lit up. She knew that only a transcendent could use it. She then asked worriedly, "Can I use it?"
"It's a unique relic. You don't have to activate it. Just put it on and it'll suppress your aura." Lin Huang nodded and explained.
"Oh yeah, these three equipment rings are a gift for you to celebrate your leveling up to iron-level. I ordered them a long time ago but they just arrived yesterday. I'll give them to you today. "Lin Huang then took out three black rings from his storage space.
Lin Xin took them immediately and played with them excitedly. "What are they?"
"Two custom-made modified BlackEagle33 and one of the latest Black Demon Armor. The modifications on the two BlackEagle33 are different. One of them increases your attack speed while the other increases your attack strength. You'll have to get used to it. "
"Thank you, brother! You're the best brother in the world! " Lin Xin thought it would be great to have a BlackEagle33. She did not expect that Lin Huang would give her two modified BlackEagle33. The value of the gift was beyond her imagination.
Another week had passed since Lin Xin realized that there was something wrong with her physique. Lin Huang had finally ordered a disguise relic. He had spent a lot of money to get the grade-5 relic. It was a metal bracelet. It could fool almost anyone below immortal-level.
After giving the bracelet to Lin Xin, Lin Huang taught her a skill to hide her aura for safety reasons.
