"Alright, since you're so confident, I won't make things difficult for you. As long as you lose, you'll cripple your own arms and apologize to my grandson on your knees. How about that?"
The Third Elder looked at Lin Tian and smiled.
"Tian 'er, don't be angry with this old man. This bet is unfair to you!"
Before Lin Tian could speak, he was interrupted by Lin Longxiao. This bet was too harsh. Lin Tian was almost certain to lose unless a miracle happened.
However … how could there be so many miracles in the world?
"What, you don't dare?"
Seeing Lin Longxiao stop him, the Third Elder couldn't help but sneer. He said sarcastically, "As expected, trash will always be trash. You only know how to talk."
"Haha, Third Elder, don't try to provoke me. Since I proposed this bet, I naturally won't go back on it. How about this … if you don't believe me, we can make a Tendo Oath. "
Lin Tian said indifferently, ignoring Lin Longxiao's words.
"Tendo Oath?"
The Third Elder's eyes flashed. He nodded and said, "Alright, then let's make a Tendo Oath!"
Seeing that the two had reached an agreement and signed the bet on a piece of parchment, Lin Longxiao was burning with anxiety. He wanted to persuade Lin Tian to stop.
The Tendo Oath was the strictest oath in the Nine Heavens Ten Realms. It was supervised by the Tendo. Any cultivator who made it could not go against it.
Otherwise, it would lead to a Tendo backlash. The consequences were very serious. Basically, no one was willing to bear it.
"Tian 'er, you have to think carefully."
Seeing that the two had already dripped their blood essence on the parchment and were about to complete the oath, Lin Longxiao said anxiously, "I know you're anxious to prove yourself, but we have plenty of time in the future. There's really no need to compete with this old man."
"Father, don't worry. I'll win."
Lin Tian said awkwardly.
Although he had accepted his current identity, some words were still a bit tongue-twisting.
"Are you really confident?"
"Really, I promise!"
Lin Tian said solemnly.
Seeing this, Lin Longxiao knew he couldn't persuade him. He sighed, "Alright, since you have chosen to gamble, I will support you and believe in you."
As he spoke, Lin Longxiao took out a small purple grass from his bosom in front of the Third Elder. It was completely transparent, and from the outside, one could see that there was a faint brilliance flowing within.
This stalk of grass was the Grade 2 Spiritual Medicine that Lin Hong had consumed before – Purple Spirit Grass. It contained pure Spiritual Qi, which could quickly replenish Spiritual Qi and help Qi Condensation cultivators cultivate.
"What a waste …"
The Third Elder looked at the Purple Spirit Grass and his eyes flashed with passion. If he could obtain this Purple Spirit Grass, his grandson Lin Zhi's injuries would not only be healed quickly, but his cultivation would also improve.
"Such a precious elixir was actually given to that trash Lin Tian. What a waste …"
Lin Yuan and Lin Zhi's eyes were filled with jealousy. They couldn't help but mutter in their hearts, thinking that Lin Tian didn't deserve this Purple Spirit Grass.
Unfortunately, this was something that Lin Longxiao had risked his life to find in the Yunyang Mountain Range. It was his private property, and he could give it to anyone he wanted.
"Tian 'er, take this Purple Spirit Grass. It should help you cultivate faster."
Lin Longxiao said as he stuffed the Purple Spirit Grass into Lin Tian's hands.
This stalk of Purple Spirit Grass was originally intended for Lin Muyu to consume so that she could enter the Blazing Sun School in her best condition for the fall examinations. But this time, Zhao Yu had come and brought her to the Blazing Sun School in advance. Hence, Lin Longxiao had kept this Purple Spirit Grass for himself, intending to use it to heal his injuries.
But now, he had seen Lin Tian and Third Elder make a bet. Even though he knew that this Purple Spirit Grass wouldn't be of much use, and might even be a waste, Lin Longxiao still gave it to Lin Tian so that he would have a better chance of winning.
Looking at the young Purple Spirit Grass in his hands, Lin Tian only felt that it was heavy. At this moment, this useless elixir that he couldn't even be bothered to look at in the past was even more precious than the so-called sacred elixir.
Because it wasn't just an elixir, it was also a gift.
Lin Tian didn't reject Lin Longxiao's kind intentions. He silently kept the Purple Spirit Grass, and then gave a refreshing smile.
He didn't make any promises or unnecessary explanations. In a month's time, he would use the facts to prove that Lin Longxiao's investment was not wrong.
It was only Level-7 of Qi Gathering. To Lin Tian, it wasn't difficult at all. If he wanted to, he could break through at any time.
But the more Lin Tian was like, the more important he was to the foundation of the early stages.
He had shattered the Tendo not only because he wanted to see what was on the Tendo, but also because he wanted to borrow the power of the Tendo to erase all the flaws he had left behind from his previous mistakes.
Therefore, Lin Tian wasn't in a hurry to practice.
Otherwise, he would really be able to gather qi with a single thought, and even break through to the Tempered Body stage without any problem.
"Are you done?"
The Third Elder stood at the side and urged impatiently.
"What are you rushing me for? Are you rushing to reincarnate? "
Lin Tian glanced at Third Elder indifferently and then pressed his thumb on the drop of Third Elder's blood essence on the parchment.
Third Elder snorted coldly and didn't want to argue with Lin Tian. The most important thing now was to immediately complete the bet.
Once the bet was completed, Lin Tian would still be dead.
Third Elder quickly pressed his hand on Lin Tian's blood essence and impatiently infused it with Spirit, as if afraid that Lin Tian would suddenly regret it.
This was an ancient ritual that no one knew when it had originated. It was also a common method used by practitioners of a lower level to establish wagers of the Tendo.
The moment the Spirit was infused, the parchment lit up with a strange light.
Immediately after, a complicated pattern appeared on the parchment and absorbed all the words on the parchment, faintly emitting a supreme power.
The two men's blood essence was also attracted and transformed into lines of blood that quickly flowed toward the pattern of light.
It was neither fast nor slow. Lin Tian and Third Elder's blood essence turned into two rings of light the size of a thumb. There were countless intricate runes engraved on them, like a small formation. Then they turned into two blood shadows that respectively flew into the space between Lin Tian and Third Elder's eyebrows.
In that instant, Lin Tian and the Third Elder both vaguely felt as if they had formed an indescribable connection with the world, and they could faintly sense a strand of supreme heavenly might that could not be challenged.
"The bet is complete, hahaha, Lin Tian, cherish your last month of good days …" Third Elder saw the parchment lose its light and shatter into pieces. He knew that the oath had been completed and couldn't help but open his mouth to laugh loudly. He was undoubtedly going to win this bet.
"Kekeke, Lin Tian, I didn't expect you to be so stupid. You actually dared to use the Tendo Oath to make this bet. You really are a fool."
Lin Zhi also stood up with the help of a guard. He looked at Lin Tian with a sinister smile and said, "Hmph, I'm looking forward to the appearance of you kneeling in front of me in a month."
