Ling Qingzhu

Form Creation Realm Grand Completion!

Feeling his current strength, Lin Langtian smiled faintly and said with satisfaction.

In truth, he had had the chance to use this opportunity to break through to the Qi Creation Stage in one go. However, cultivating too quickly was not necessarily a good thing. If his foundation became unstable, it would be a tremendous loss.

In less than a month, he had risen from Origin Core Realm Great Perfection to the Half-step Qi Creation Stage. That was already an enormous leap; too much was as bad as too little.

"This Golden Spirit Wheel Mirror truly is extraordinary..." Recalling that terrifying devouring force, Lin Langtian could not help but sigh.

He had finally gotten to enjoy the treatment of a protagonist...

After breaking through, Lin Langtian did not leave the Clan Treasury immediately. Instead, he chose to remain inside and begin consolidating his realm.

Another three days passed. When Lin Langtian opened his eyes once more, the powerful aura within him was finally firmly under his control. His entire person seemed to have shed all traces of the ordinary; even a Nirvana Stage expert would be unable to discern his current strength.

"Alright, it's time to go out..." After concealing the aura of his breakthrough, Lin Langtian smiled faintly and muttered to himself.

Half a month ago, he had only just broken through to the minor completion of the Form Creation Realm. If it were discovered that he had now reached the grand completion of the Form Creation Realm, it would inevitably arouse the clan's suspicions.

Although he was currently the strongest among the Lin Clan's younger generation, and the clan treated him quite well, human hearts were worth nothing in the face of profit.

Thus, to prevent such a situation, Lin Langtian had remained in the Clan Treasury for several extra days, solely to hide the aura of his breakthrough.

Outside the Clan Treasury, as Lin Langtian emerged from seclusion, the stone door that had been shut tight for over half a month finally rumbled open slowly.

"How was it, Langtian? What grade of Spirit Treasure did you obtain?"

The instant the Clan Treasury's stone door opened, Lin Zhi and the others hurried forward and spoke to the young figure who was slowly walking out.

"Heh, I did not disappoint. I obtained an Earth-grade Spirit Treasure, the Spirit Wheel Mirror."

When he mentioned the Spirit Wheel Mirror, Lin Langtian's gaze flickered. Clearly, he had not revealed the unexpected events that had occurred within.

Naturally, Lin Zhi and the others did not press further. Instead, they congratulated him. "Congratulations, Langtian. To wield an Earth-grade Spirit Treasure at such a young age, you are outstanding even among the younger generation of the Great Yan Empire.

"One day, you will surely become the Great Yan Empire's number one genius."

Lin Langtian merely smiled at Lin Zhi and the others' flattery, not taking it to heart.

What did the Great Yan Empire amount to? His ambitions had long since moved beyond it.

However, just as Lin Langtian was preparing to bid them farewell, Lin Zhi suddenly remembered something and stopped him. "Right, Langtian. There was originally something I needed to inform you of, but when I learned of your breakthrough, I was so delighted that I forgot.

"You have spent over half a month in the Clan Treasury now. Judging by the time, that person should be arriving soon."

"Oh? Who is it?" Lin Langtian asked curiously.

"A disciple sent to the Great Yan Dynasty by a Super Sect. Her name seems to be... Ling Qingzhu," Lin Zhi said slowly.

"Ling Qingzhu?"

Hearing that name, Lin Langtian was startled, and a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes.

Naturally, he was no stranger to the name. She was the female lead of the original timeline and Lin Dong's beloved. Not only did she possess a powerful background, but her talent was astonishing as well. She was practically the dream goddess of countless young men.

Lin Langtian searched through the memories in his mind. If nothing had changed, this favored daughter of heaven, Ling Qingzhu, was indeed about to arrive in the Great Yan Empire. And guided by fate, she would form a bond with Lin Dong...

"Yes. It seems this Ling Qingzhu also has quite a strong background within that Super Sect, and she maintains certain ties with the Great Yan Empire's Imperial Clan. More than half a month ago, the Imperial Clan began preparing a welcoming ceremony.

"To welcome this disciple of a Super Sect, the Imperial Clan has even specially arranged a grand auction in the Imperial Capital one month from now. All of the empire's upper class will be invited, and an invitation has been sent to you as well.

"If you have the time, Langtian, you can pay her a visit. After all, if you successfully pass the Hundred Dynasties War challenge, you will likely join one of these Super Sects too. It would be good to make an acquaintance with this disciple beforehand," Lin Zhi suggested.

Hearing this, Lin Langtian frowned slightly, clearly not agreeing with Lin Zhi's view.

Who was Ling Qingzhu? She was the successor to the next palace master of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace, a Super Sect. Both her background and talent were exceptional.

In her eyes, the Great Yan Empire was likely as insignificant as dust. The so-called geniuses of the Great Yan Empire were merely ants with a little talent.

With Lin Langtian's current strength, although he was indeed among the first-rate in the Great Yan Empire, he was still far from worthy of catching Ling Qingzhu's attention.

Given that, Lin Langtian naturally would not go fawning over someone indifferent to him, even if that person was Ling Qingzhu.

Still, although he had no interest in attending Ling Qingzhu's welcoming ceremony, Lin Langtian decided to make a trip to the Imperial Capital.

After all, he had quite a few ideas about the auction being held by the Imperial Clan.

Since it was an auction specially arranged to welcome Ling Qingzhu, the Imperial Clan would surely bring out some of its prized treasures. Otherwise, it would be too shabby, and they would be unable to present them before a favored daughter of heaven like Ling Qingzhu.

With such an opportunity, he could go and see whether he could pick up something useful.

"Then I must thank Elder Lin Zhi for informing me. Once I have rested for a while, I will set out for the Imperial Capital," Lin Langtian said, cupping his hands toward Lin Zhi in thanks.

"Heh, no need to be so polite," Lin Zhi said with a smile, waving his hand.

When Lin Zhi mentioned Ling Qingzhu, Lin Langtian suddenly thought of something and asked him another question.

"Does the clan have any medicinal pill that can heal someone whose body has been ravaged by Yuan Power, leaving them unable to cultivate?"

"Unable to cultivate because the body was ravaged by Yuan Power?" Lin Zhi was taken aback. After pondering for a moment, he said, "If that person's strength is below the Origin Core Realm, the Green Wood Spirit Pill in the clan can help heal and restore them.

"But if that person's strength is above the Origin Core Realm, I'm afraid only the Imperial Clan possesses such medicinal pills."

"Below the Origin Core Realm, the Green Wood Spirit Pill..."

Lin Langtian murmured softly. Then a glint of delight flashed through his eyes. If he remembered correctly, Lin Dong's father, Lin Xiao, was at the Heavenly Yuan Realm—he had not surpassed the Origin Core Realm.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian said to Lin Zhi again, "I have a matter to trouble Elder Lin with. Could you help me find out whether there is anyone in the main clan who has close ties with the Yan City Lin Branch?

"Find that person for me. I need to entrust them with a task."

"The Yan City branch?" Lin Zhi was startled by Lin Langtian's strange request and gave him a surprised look before nodding.

Though he did not know the reason behind it, since Lin Langtian had given the order, he, as a member of Lin Langtian's faction, naturally would not refuse.

"Alright, leave it to me..."
