Demon God Body Tempering Method

On the carriage, Zhou Yurou repeatedly summoned and withdrew her Lotus Flower martial soul.

She gazed happily at the exceptionally bright yellow spirit ring spinning around the Lotus Flower martial soul.

Lin Li did not mind and simply watched her show off. As the carriage swayed along the road, she lifted the curtain over the window.

Outside the carriage were all kinds of Soul Masters hurrying along. Then, as the carriage slowly passed a wooden gate that seemed to have been shattered beyond recognition—

A barely noticeable smile, uglier than a cry, curled across her lips. Soul Town, I'm back. Dad, Mom, do you know? I'm already a Soul Grandmaster.

Are you happy? I think you must be happy!

Once the carriage had traveled far from Soul Town, she immediately reined in her emotions and lowered the curtain, only to see the worried look on Zhou Yurou's face.

Zhou Yurou had discovered that ever since she added a spirit ring to her martial soul, she could sense others' emotions through Spiritual Power.

And just then, she had felt an overwhelming sorrow, as piercingly cold as the depths of winter.

Lin Li shook her head and said, "The worst days are already behind me. Thinking back on them now only brings unnecessary trouble."

Zhou Yurou did not know how to comfort her and could only sit quietly by her side.

Lin Li smiled and patted the hand resting on her shoulder. "I'm fine. It was a long time ago."

Zhou Yurou hummed and said, "Xiao Li, with your strength, you can probably choose to attend an intermediate Soul Master Academy already."

Lin Li hummed, then rubbed her cheek and said, "But at my current age, it wouldn't be suitable for me to go to an intermediate Soul Master Academy so early. Don't worry, I'll remain at Saint Er Junior Soul Master Academy for six years."

Zhou Yurou's eyes immediately lit up. "Really?"

Lin Li hummed. "Yes, but I won't accompany you for your Soul Master registration."

Zhou Yurou asked in confusion, "Why?"

Lin Li smiled. "The earliest person on the continent to break through to the Soul Grandmaster realm was Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect. He was six years and eight months old when he did so. I plan to go when I'm six years and seven months old."

Zhou Yurou nodded in understanding. "Oh my god, I never expected Xiao Li's talent to be even greater than Clear Sky Douluo's!"

Lin Li smiled, but at the mention of Clear Sky Douluo, a nearly tangible viciousness hid within her eyes.

In the first carriage, Ye Lian had been resting with her eyes closed while using Spiritual Power to probe the surroundings, so she heard the two girls' conversation as well. When she heard Lin Li's words—

Her heart could not help but stir. This girl understood the principle that the tallest tree catches the wind thoroughly.

But she herself had not understood it back then. She sat quietly in the carriage, her right fingers unconsciously tracing the gemstone ring on her right ring finger.

Though the carriage was not moving quickly, its gentle swaying gradually lulled Lin Li to sleep against the carriage wall.

When Zhou Yurou saw that Lin Li had fallen asleep, her eyelids also grew heavy. Soon, the sound of their steady breathing filled the carriage.

It was already nine at night when they returned to Saint Er Junior Soul Master Academy. The moment the carriage stopped, Lin Li woke up. She shook Zhou Yurou beside her.

Zhou Yurou slowly woke from Lin Li's shaking as well. She yawned and asked, "We're at the academy?"

Lin Li hummed. "Let's go. We'll head back to the dorm and get a good night's sleep."

Zhou Yurou hummed. After the two got out of the carriage, they found that everyone except Ye Lian looked bleary-eyed.

Clearly, they had all taken a nap in the carriage. Ye Lian glanced at them and said, "Go back and rest properly. You have three days off."

Everyone hummed in agreement before returning to their dorms. Ye Lian also let out a deep yawn.

Although they had not gone Soul Hunting in the inner region these past few days, staying in the outer region for several days while holding back during Soul Hunting had been exhausting. Even though they were only Hundred-Year Soul Beasts—

The effort she had to expend was no less than fighting a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast alone.

She sighed. "I wonder when I'll be able to see you again."

When Lin Li returned to the dorm, it was exactly as it had been before she left. Though she had only been gone three or four days, she had somehow developed a measure of attachment to this place.

Lin Li did not plan to cultivate anymore. After taking a bath, she lay down on her bed.

The next morning, as the first light of dawn emerged, Lin Li opened her eyes.

She realized that she had grown a little lazy these past few days, but starting today, she had to work hard at cultivating again.

Lin Li revealed a helpless smile. At that moment, the information from the two books rewarded by the system—the Demon God Body Tempering Method and the Myriad Herbs Record—

Instantly flooded into her mind. The Demon God Body Tempering Method—

This Body Tempering Method was meant to forge a physique that even divine artifacts could not harm. Once cultivated to mastery—

Every inch of the body's skin would become like meteoric iron from beyond the heavens, impossible to break. The pressure it could withstand would also be beyond the reach of ordinary people. It was an extremely suitable Body Tempering Method for the cultivation rules of Douluo Continent.

At this moment, half the weight in Lin Li's heart lifted. She had originally been wondering how she would find a way to temper her body when cultivating her second martial soul, but now she no longer needed to search.

As for the Myriad Herbs Record, it not only contained the uses of all herbs and spirit herbs in the world, but also secret formulas for concocting all kinds of medicine. Poisons and tonics alike were all included.

Paired with the Demon God Body Tempering Method, it could achieve twice the results with half the effort! However, cultivating the Demon God Body Tempering Method required using the ferocious aura in Soul Beast blood to temper her body—

Or boiling all kinds of rare medicinal ingredients into a medicinal bath to temper it.

Aside from these two methods, one also had to undergo countless battles and constant tempering. Only by step-by-step enduring torturous, almost self-destructive madness could one rapidly master the Demon God Body Tempering Method.

Lin Li felt that whoever had created the Demon God Body Tempering Method was truly ruthless, to think of such a—well, self-serving but torturous cultivation method!

She sighed helplessly, washed up, changed into fresh clothes, and headed for the cafeteria.

She planned to eat more. In a while, she would go to the shop to buy some things. After cultivating, who knew how exhausted she would be!

First Cafeteria. Ever since Lin Li and Zhou Yurou had become friends and meal buddies, Lin Li usually ate at the Third Cafeteria.

But she could not go to the Third Cafeteria now. After the Blood Fiend Demonic Phoenix obtained its Second Spirit Ring and her strength reached the level of a twenty-something Soul Grandmaster, her energy requirements had become much greater.

If ordinary food were to satisfy her energy needs, her appetite would probably rival that of a dragon.

The Third Cafeteria's overall structure resembled the cafeterias from her previous life, with rows of serving windows where people could get food. It also had the largest number of diners.

Unlike the lively, down-to-earth atmosphere of the Third Cafeteria, the First Cafeteria's architecture carried a more refined air. Entering it felt like stepping into an ancient European banquet hall. Everything was exquisitely crafted, and everything exuded luxury.

She had originally wondered how a junior Soul Master Academy could possess such wealth, but then, that night, she had openly witnessed the irresistible charm of her own headmaster.

But when she thought of Tang Yuehua's Moonlight Pavilion, she understood. Most of the food in the First Cafeteria was made from the finest parts of Soul Beasts, so most of those who ate here were wealthy students and academy teachers.

However, she ran into someone unexpected here.

Handsome-faced, with a cold and aloof temperament—who else could it be but Ling Xuan?

Lin Li greeted him. Upon hearing her voice, Ling Xuan could not help but shrink back. It could not be helped; the terror of being dominated by her over the past month had been too horrifying.

When Lin Li saw his reaction, her face darkened. She left him there and directly ordered many generous, delicious dishes.

But when she saw the prices, she secretly rejoiced that she did not have to pay!
