That night, Lin Muyu received the pardon edict from Qin Yin. She was extraordinarily efficient. She brought Fengxi, Xu Jiantao, and the others to the slums in the east of Lanyan City and read the edict to everyone. Then, she gave the edict to Situ Sen. With this edict, he could pardon any servant related to the Heaven Judgment Society.
As for the Gold Hun Coins, it took Jin Xiaotang half a day to gather three million Gold Hun Coins. However, in exchange, Lin Muyu had to forge some Dream of Returning Peaks and a batch of weapons for the Chamber of Commerce. She had nothing better to do anyway.
… …
Six days passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Muyu's injuries had recovered by ninety percent. Her strength had mostly recovered, and there were signs that she was stronger than before. Her battle qi had become thicker and purer. As her strength improved, the God Binding Chains and Martial Soul Gourd also became stronger day by day. This was something he could feel.
Early in the morning, the Holy Temple was silent. Frost covered the ground on this winter morning, and the temperature dropped sharply. It was so cold that people shivered. It seemed that the first snow of the year was about to arrive.
In the center of the hall, a purple stone was placed there, surrounded by Ge Yang, Zhou Yao, Baili Fu, and Zheng Shanhe, the four deacons, Ge Yang, Zhou Yao, Baili Fu, and Zheng Shanhe. In addition, even Qu Chu was there. He was reading a thick book with a face full of suspicion.
"Qu, did you find it?" Lin Muyu asked with a smile.
"Not yet." Qu Chu shook his head.
Lin Muyu smiled. "Why don't we forget about it? There's no need to name my Martial Soul, right?"
"That won't do." Ge Yang's tone left no room for argument. "Yu, you are now the Grand Deacon, the soul of the empire's cultivation world. If we can't even identify your Martial Soul and name it, then I'm afraid the Myriad Soul Canon will no longer be the number one canon in the world regarding Martial Souls."
"Okay then …" Lin Muyu drank her tea.
After a while, Qu Chu finally lost his patience. He closed the book and said, "I'm afraid ….. there was no mention of Yu's Martial Spirit in the books of our ancestors. In my opinion, why don't we test the strength of our Martial Spirits ourselves, and determine the levels of our Martial Spirits, then we can just name them."
Ge Yang laughed, "Alright, that's what I mean too."
Qu Chu nodded, "Yu, go to the Testing Stone and summon your green gourd. Push your martial spirit's power to the highest level."
"Yes, Qu."
Lin Muyu stood up and walked to the Testing Stone. This stone was collected from deep within the mountains. It possessed natural spiritual energy and was naturally sensitive to human Martial Spirits. Lin Muyu gently placed her palm on the stone. The golden gourd emerged from her body. As Lin Muyu activated her Dou Qi, the light became more and more intense. In the blink of an eye, it let out a "weng weng" sound, illuminating the entire Temple.
The light on the Testing Stone continued to shine. It changed from green to green, then to black, then to deep red, and finally stopped at purple.
"It's purple now ….." Ge Yang was overjoyed. "Qu's Martial Spirit has already reached the purple first grade. Under Yu's cultivation, this gourd Martial Spirit has already advanced to the first grade!"
"En."
Qu Chu twirled his beard and laughed, "Yu is indeed talented. He can do what others can't! I can feel that this green gourd Martial Spirit has the essence of the Seven Luminaries Xuan Force. As Yu grew, the essence of the Martial Spirit was changed by the Seven Luminaries Xuan Force. That's why its power is so powerful. In my opinion ….. Yu's first grade Martial Spirit should be named Seven Luminaries Holy Gourd. Deacon Ge Yang, what do you think? "
Ge Yang chuckled, "Good name. Qu is really knowledgeable. This Seven Luminaries Holy Gourd is enough to become a first grade Martial Spirit!"
Ge Yang picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote the name of Seven Luminaries Holy Gourd on the second page of the Book of Ten Thousand Souls. At the same time, there were six other first grade Martial Spirits: God Binding Chain, Demon Blood Saber, Purple Dragon, Eight Desolate Sword, Dragon Beard Vine, and Stepping Fire Tiger.
Qu Chu squinted his eyes and said, "Yu, summon your God Binding Chain and push your power to the highest level."
"Yes, Qu."
Lin Muyu gave a low shout, and nine golden God Binding Chains appeared around her. Light swirled around her, and as Lin Muyu exerted her strength, the golden light expanded explosively. At the same time, a faint starlight from the Nine Heavens appeared around the golden light, and the power of the stars seeped into the God Binding Chains, giving off a domineering aura!
The light on the testing stone continued to expand until it turned purple. Then, blue starlight appeared above the purple. It was a spectacular sight.
"Wow, it can't be?" Zhou Yao was dumbfounded.
Bai Lifu's eyes also widened, "Could it be … Deacon's God Binding Chain has surpassed the first grade Martial Spirit?"
Ge Yang's hands were trembling, and he was very excited, "Yu's God Binding Chain … seems to have changed."
"Yes …"
Qu Chu smiled as if he was looking at a fire, "I don't know why, but the Star Arts that Ah-Yu cultivates can actually fuse with the God Binding Shackles, causing the Star Arts that are infused with the God Binding Shackles to be even more overbearing. This is really a stroke of luck. The power of the God Binding Shackles is indeed above the first class of martial spirits. Deacon Ge Yang, how do you think we should classify it?"
Ge Yang's breathing was a little hurried, and his face was red, "This … this is a miracle. In the history of the Holy Temple, there has never been a situation like this. A Martial Spirit that surpasses the first grade, are we going to create a new classification for Martial Spirits?"
Qu Chu smiled, "That's not impossible … Deacon Ge Yang, don't be too excited. I can boldly tell you that after Her Highness Yin cultivates the Dragon Beheading Art, her God Binding Chain seems to have been strengthened by the Dragon Beheading Art, and its power is also slightly higher than the first grade. If we really want to create a new classification, then Yu and Xiao Yin's Martial Spirits are enough to be classified as Martial Spirits of the first grade."
Lin Muyu coughed, "Deacon Ge Yang, then let's do it, Martial Spirits of the first grade … it sounds a little stronger than the first grade Martial Spirit."
"Okay, this old man obeys!"
Ge Yang immediately wrote "Martial Spirits of the first grade" on the draft of the Ten Thousand Soul Canon, and raised his head, "But … as they are both God Binding Chains, how should we name them?"
Qu Chu pondered for a moment, then said, "Yu's Martial Spirit shall be named Star God Binding Chains, and Xiao Yin's Martial Spirit shall be named True Dragon God Binding Chains. This is also in line with the will of the heavens. Her Highness Yin has the bloodline of an Emperor and the body of a True Dragon, so she is probably the only one who can cultivate the True Dragon God Binding Chains."
Lin Muyu happily returned to her seat and sat down again, then said, "I can finally hold my head high. Super First Grade Star God Binding Chains, First Grade Seven Luminaries Immortal Gourd. From now on, my name will be written in the annals of the cultivation world of the Empire, right?"
Qu Chu couldn't help but laugh, "Not only the annals of the cultivation world, even the annals of the Empire will definitely have a page of your name. Maybe later generations of historians will even write a personal chronicle for you! That is a rare honor, the Empire has existed for thousands of years, but only a few dozen people have had the honor of writing a chronicle. "
Lin Muyu said with a smile, "Fame to me is like a floating cloud in the sky …"
Before she could finish, a temple guard outside said respectfully, "Grand Deacon, Princess Tang Xiaoxi requests an audience!"
"Ah, Xiao Xi is back?"
"Yes, she is just outside the hall!"
"Let her in … ah no … I'll go get her!"
Lin Muyu didn't even care about the Dragon Spirit Sword on the table and flew out of the main hall. Qu Chu, Ge Yang, Zhou Yao, and the others all smiled knowingly. Although Lin Muyu was now the Grand Deacon of the Temple and one of the commanders of the Empire's major armies, she was still a hot-blooded young man after all.
Outside the grand hall, the cold wind was blowing, causing Tang Xiaoxi's white leather robes to flutter lightly. Tang Xiaoxi stood gracefully on Skyspan Street, the strong wind causing her to blink her eyes repeatedly, her long eyelashes seeming to struggle in the strong wind. It was only when Lin Muyu walked out, dressed in the white robes of the Imperial Forest, that Tang Xiaoxi's eyes lit up. Seeing the person she had been thinking about day and night had a completely new demeanor, it was as if her heart was about to melt.
"It's cold outside, let's talk inside."
Lin Muyu gently grabbed her hand and led her into the Temple. Suddenly, Tang Xiaoxi blushed and her heart was as warm as the sun.
Behind them, a group of generals of the State Army and several guards of the Temple were all smiling. Everyone in Lanyan City knew that Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi had a very close relationship. They also knew that Lin Muyu, the foster son of the former Emperor, had a very good relationship with the current Emperor, Qin Yin. Therefore, almost every man in Lanyan City was envious of Lin Muyu, who had two supreme beauties in the Imperial Capital. This was something that ordinary people dared not think about.
"Xiao Yin, you must have something to do in Lanyan City, right?" Lin Muyu asked with a smile.
"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do …" Tang Xiaoxi looked at her with a hidden bitterness.
"Yes … yes!"
Lin Muyu smiled and said, "How's the matter of the Demon Clan in the Forest of Infinity?"
"It's alright." Tang Xiaoxi gently held his arm. Suddenly, her eyes turned red and she said, "I heard that you went to the Yihe Kingdom …"
"It's alright, it's alright …" Lin Muyu patted the back of her hand and said, "I've brought Brother Qin Lei's head back and buried it under the National Monument. If I don't do this, I won't be able to rest in peace. Xiao Xi, you must be able to understand me."
"But …" Tang Xiaoxi wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
"Let's talk about the Demon Clan." Lin Muyu smiled and said, "The Demon Clan's Marshal QianFeng has deliberately built all kinds of siege weapons, planning to attack the Empire's territory from the west. I'm worried that once the Demon Clan really succeeds in their invasion, our human army's power will be unable to resist them. At that time, I'm afraid we'll have to rely on the Demon Clan's military power."
"The Demon Clan isn't having an easy time either."
Tang Xiaoxi pursed her red lips and said, "The temperature in the Forest of Infinity is unpredictable. This spring and summer, the sun has been blazing in the sky and there's very little rain, resulting in a severe drought. The wild plants in the forest have a very poor harvest, so the food for the Demon Clan has become very little. Autumn has just arrived, and it's snowing continuously. The entire west of the Demon Subduing Pass has become a sea of snow. A few days before I came, thousands of Demon Clan starved to death. So this time, I came to Lanyan City to borrow food from Xiao Yin …"
"Ah?"
Lin Muyu was slightly stunned. She touched her nose and said, "Shall I accompany you to see Xiao Yin?"
"Mm, okay!"
