Chapter 927
Promotion and Bone Conferment
Just as Lin Xuan said, although Lin Xiao was unprepared, he activated 10% of the Four Symbols Sacred Body, which unleashed extremely strong energy that enveloped him. The energy lightning, which was like a pillar of heaven, could not harm Lin Xiao in the slightest.
Lin Xiao was bathed in the baptism of the heavenly tribulation lightning, which cleansed the impurities and some hidden injuries in his body.
Lin Xuan sat to the side, watching Lin Xiao's changes with great interest.
"This kid does have a bit of my style from back then. It wouldn't be a bad idea to take him as a disciple."
Lin Xuan was also moved by compassion at this moment. After all, the Four Symbols Sacred Body was an extremely strong physique, and coupled with Lin Xiao's upright character, taking him under his wing would definitely be a worthwhile deal.
This tribulation lasted for seven days and seven nights before it ended. Normally, a breakthrough in the Profound Immortal Realm would take at most three days and three nights. A breakthrough that lasted seven days and seven nights required either terrifying talent or the envy of the heavens.
Although the Four Symbols Sacred Body is powerful, it is not enough to attract the wrath of the heavens. Therefore, it is time for Lin Xiao's talent to be truly displayed.
"Ahhh~"
Lin Xiao suddenly roared to the sky, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances he had accumulated over the years.
Lin Xuan let Lin Xiao do as he pleased, without any intention of stopping him.
"I am Lin Xiao, and I thank Elder Xuan for his life-saving grace. Without Elder Xuan, I think I would have lived a mediocre life and would have been helpless in the face of the truth about my parents' disappearance!"
Lin Xiao knelt down in front of Lin Xuan with a thud.
Lin Xuan accepted Lin Xiao's kneeling, because Lin Xuan was worthy of it, and Lin Xuan should accept this kneeling.
"Hehe, you're not bad, kid. Follow the plan I've set for you. In three years, you might not reach the peak of the Profound Immortal Realm, but reaching the sixth or seventh tribulation shouldn't be a problem."
Lin Xuan chuckled lightly, his words and expression brimming with undeniable confidence.
Lin Xiao felt his heart pounding. If that were true, then he should be able to find out the truth about his parents' disappearance soon.
"Of course, before that, I'll also give you a life-saving treasure."
Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback by Lin Xuan's words and looked at Lin Xuan with confusion.
Lin Xuan didn't explain further. Instead, he reached out and summoned Prince Xueye's storage magic treasure. With a sudden squeeze, the storage magic treasure shattered.
Seeing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but swallow.
As the storage artifact shattered, the remains of the Blood Phoenix Beast hidden within were revealed.
"This Blood Phoenix Beast truly lives up to its title as the Beast King. Its aura is terrifying. Even in death, it still sends chills down my spine."
Lin Xiao stood before the enormous skeleton of the Blood Phoenix Beast, his eyes filled with longing, which then turned into a complex expression.
"But even such a powerful creature could not escape death."
"Hehe, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, and big fish have even bigger fish to eat. Although this Blood Phoenix Beast is the Beast King, above it are the Beast Emperor, the Demon Lord, and the Demon Emperor. In front of beings more powerful than it, it is nothing but an ant."
Lin Xuan's words strengthened Lin Xiao's belief in becoming stronger.
"Elder Xuan, how did you become like this?"
Lin Xiao looked at Lin Xuan with curiosity.
At this moment, the image of that world-destroying figure reappeared in Lin Xuan's mind.
Sealed Heaven Demon God!
One of the Ten Supreme Demon Gods, he could destroy Lin Xuan's body with just a glance.
This feeling of helplessness is like facing an invincible god; the sense of despair is like a small boat on the ocean encountering a tsunami, leaving one utterly helpless.
"I am like this Blood Phoenix Beast, encountering an existence that is hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times stronger than myself, and thus ended up in this state. But I am luckier than him; at least I am still alive, while he has already been annihilated."
Lin Xuan didn't hide the cause of his death; in fact, he even seemed a little sentimental. "What?!"
Lin Xiao was deeply shaken. Although he had some guesses, he still couldn't help but feel his heart trembling when he heard Lin Xuan say that.
In Lin Xiao's mind, Lin Xuan was an extremely powerful being, who could even suppress Wu Feng, the commander-in-chief of their empire, even as a soul.
However, this Xuan Lao was actually shattered by an even more powerful being, turning his physical body into a soul.
"Always remember, there are always people better than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. Your Four Symbols Sacred Body is indeed the most outstanding physique, but in this vast Immortal Realm, there are physiques even stronger than yours. Even if your physique is inferior to yours, you may still have some other miraculous methods. Always be careful."
"Lin Xiao has learned a lot!" Lin Xiao bowed to Lin Xuan in response.
Lin Xuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Alright, now that you've reached the Profound Immortal Realm, our training is officially about to begin. Of course, before that, you'll receive an extra protective talisman."
Under Lin Xiao's puzzled gaze, Lin Xuan used his Origin Qi to envelop the Blood Phoenix Beast's skeleton. This power caused the skeleton to compress rapidly, and in just a few breaths, the skeleton gradually disappeared, leaving behind a pair of bone wings and three drops of blood.
"These bone wings are the wings of the Blood Phoenix Beast. Once you absorb them, no one in the Profound Immortal Realm can keep up with your speed, and even those in the Earth Immortal Realm who are not good at speed will have difficulty keeping up with you. As for those three drops of blood, they are the essence blood of the Blood Phoenix Beast extracted from the entire skeleton, which will be useful for your Four Symbols Sacred Body."
"Thank you very much, Elder Xuan. I will repay your great kindness many times over in the future!"
……
Snow Moon Empire.
"Damn it! My storage magic item is shattered!"
Lin Xuan crushed Xue Ye's storage magic item, and Xue Ye, the owner of the magic item, could naturally sense it.
"Aaaaaah, I must kill him! I must kill him!"
At this moment, Xueye could no longer maintain his tall and imposing image, and his entire face became distorted.
It wasn't just because something was lost, but because the lost item was something his father, the emperor, had specifically requested!
"Your Highness, His Majesty summons you!"
Inside the Crown Prince's palace, several figures dressed in python robes descended.
Upon seeing the group of people clearly in the snowy night, his body stiffened abruptly, and his lips trembled slightly.
These men were his father's personal guards, and they only obeyed his father's orders. The fact that they came in person at this time was enough to show that his father was extremely angry!
Seeing this, Elder Mo also had a bitter expression on his face. He had initially told the Crown Prince to take the Blood Phoenix Beast's remains back first, but the Crown Prince refused. Now that something had happened, he, as the protector, could not escape responsibility!
"I understand. Please lead the way, seniors."
He wore a mournful expression on his face in the snowy night, but forced himself to remain calm.
Within the Snow Moon Empire, in the Snow Mountain Range, Lin Xiao, resembling an ascetic monk, killed a Xuanxian Realm demon beast with a single punch.
"Elder Xuan, I feel like I'm full of power!"
Lin Xiao was in high spirits at this moment.
Lin Xuan nodded in approval as he looked at Lin Xiao's combat strength. It was indeed impressive; the enhancement that the Four Symbols Sacred Body had brought to Lin Xiao's body far exceeded expectations.
"Oh, by the way, Elder Xuan, why didn't you kill Xue Ye?"
Lin Xiao suddenly asked.
Lin Xuan recalled that snowy night and looked at Lin Xiao with great interest.
"That person is passable, but becoming a rival on your path to growth isn't necessarily a bad thing for you."
"Understood, Elder Xuan. I will finish him off personally." (End of Chapter)
