"Xu Qin, are you joking with me?"

While Lin Xuan was slaughtering pigs, Outer Elder Xu Qin once again arrived at Ice God Peak.

At this time, the Peak Lord of Ice God Peak, Liu Ruyan, was staring at Xu Qin with displeasure.

The pressure emanating from her involuntarily made Xu Qin, a True Essence Realm expert, tremble all over.

Hearing Liu Ruyan's words, Xu Qin smiled bitterly, "Peak Lord Liu, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, this junior would never have believed it. If Peak Lord Liu doesn't believe me, you can extract my memories."

Liu Ruyan's pupils shrank, and a look of surprise appeared on her iceberg-like face for the first time.

Xu Qin had already said this much, so the matter was likely true.

Extracting memories would directly damage one's foundation, and no one would joke about such a thing.

"A ten-thousand-year Useless Body, entering Body Tempering in three days, Yellow Grade Low-Rank Tiger's Roar Fist proficient..."

"What exactly is the reason?"

Liu Ruyan frowned deeply. With her hundreds of years of experience, this matter also made her scalp tingle.

One had to know that even Yu Bing had only just entered the middle stage of Body Tempering at this time.

This was because Yu Bing was born with a divine body and had the best resources available.

Lin Xuan, a Useless Body, why was his progress so rapid?

Could it be that the aptitude test was wrong?

As soon as the thought arose, Liu Ruyan shook her head and threw it out of her mind.

The aptitude test could never be wrong. The Divine Firmament Holy Land had used this method for ten thousand years, and there was absolutely no problem.

But all of this simply couldn't be explained.

"Forget it, perhaps this is fate. He can be considered qualified to stay in the Holy Land. I only hope that it won't affect Yu'er's cultivation."

In the end, Liu Ruyan could only sigh softly in her heart.

"Buzz!"

However, at this moment, a terrifying power broke through space and suddenly descended within the main hall of Ice God Peak.

"Senior Brother!"

Liu Ruyan bowed slightly. An energy phantom appeared in the void in front of her, reflecting the appearance of a middle-aged man.

"Outer Elder Xu Qin greets the Holy Lord!"

Xu Qin was shocked and quickly bowed deeply at ninety degrees.

"Ruyan, you're being too reckless. Why did you accept a Useless Body as a disciple?"

"Do you know that our Divine Firmament Holy Land has now become a laughingstock among the various immortal sects? The First Elder's report woke me up from my seclusion."

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord did not pay attention to Xu Qin, but instead looked at Liu Ruyan with a gloomy expression.

Liu Ruyan raised an eyebrow, "Who dares to laugh at my Divine Firmament? I will personally visit them to argue."

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord twitched his lips and raised his hand to his forehead.

"Alright, I don't want to start a war with anyone. I don't care what you're thinking, but don't forget what you said. If he doesn't enter Body Tempering after half a year, he will be expelled from the Holy Land immediately."

"Senior Brother, he has already entered Body Tempering and has also cultivated a Yellow Grade Low-Rank martial skill to the level of proficiency."

Liu Ruyan said immediately after the Holy Lord finished speaking.

"Hmm?"

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord frowned, "Are you joking with me?"

Liu Ruyan shook her head gently.

"Boom!"

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord's phantom trembled, and an extremely powerful aura erupted. Xu Qin suffered an undeserved disaster and was directly blown away, but fortunately, he was not injured.

"A Useless Body who successfully entered Body Tempering three days after joining, and is proficient in a Yellow Grade Low-Rank martial skill? Was there an error when testing his aptitude?"

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord's words were filled with disbelief.

"There were no problems with the test, but this is indeed true."

Liu Ruyan's voice was melodious.

The Divine Firmament Holy Lord was silent, and the light in his eyes flickered.

After a long time, he finally relaxed his brow, "Perhaps he had some fortuitous encounter in the past, but it will be difficult to sustain. All the immortal sects are watching us make fools of ourselves."

"The Three Sects Trial is in a month. I hope the peerless talent you have can shut them up."

After the Divine Firmament Holy Lord finished speaking, his figure slowly faded away.

"Please rest assured, Senior Brother!"

Liu Ruyan's clear and cold voice rang out, as if she was thinking of Yu Bing, and her iceberg-like temperament melted a little.

Lin Xuan, the person involved, did not know anything about what happened at Ice God Peak.

At this moment, he had already completed his morning task of slaughtering ten pigs and was heading to the back mountain with a specially made scythe.

"Ten pigs, stealing 30 years of time, and Bloodline Power beyond measure. A huge profit."

Without rushing to cut pig grass, Lin Xuan found a secluded spot, sat down cross-legged, and submerged his consciousness into the Soul Suppressing Pagoda.

"Cultivate!"

As the thought flashed through his mind, the Bloodline Power in the first level of the Soul Suppressing Pagoda immediately surged, gathering towards him.

Lin Xuan's Blood Essence surged, every drop of blood in his body was boiling, and his Bloodline Power was increasing madly.

In the first year, his own Bloodline Power doubled.

In the second year, nearly a third of the absorbed Bloodline Power was consumed.

In the fourth year, the Bloodline Power was almost exhausted, and Lin Xuan reached a bottleneck, about to enter the mid-stage of Body Tempering.

In the fifth year, all the Bloodline Power was consumed, and the Blood Essence within Lin Xuan's body surged like a river, emitting a 'rumbling' sound as it flowed.

Suddenly, Lin Xuan's aura erupted, the flow rate of Bloodline Power within his body instantly soared, and an extremely terrifying power was born.

"Mid-stage of Body Tempering!"

Lin Xuan opened his eyes, his eyes filled with joy.

"Continue, raise the Tiger's Roar Fist to Great Accomplishment!"

Originally, there were 22 years of stored time remaining. He gained 30 years from slaughtering pigs and two years from killing Zhang Tao. Now, after consuming five years, there were still 49 years left. Lin Xuan felt he could splurge a little.

He began cultivating the Tiger's Roar Fist.

In the third year, Lin Xuan finally felt it was difficult to make any further progress and began to ponder deeply.

In the fourth year, he gained nothing.

Finally, in the fifth year, Lin Xuan figured out the key point, and the Tiger's Roar Fist entered the Minor Accomplishment stage.

In the sixth year, the comprehension realm of the Tiger's Roar Fist was rapidly improving, even directly encountering a bottleneck.

This time, it was even more difficult. In the seventh, eighth, and ninth years, Lin Xuan couldn't grasp the essentials.

It wasn't until the tenth year that Lin Xuan pondered the posture of a fierce tiger and finally broke through that profound barrier.

Great Accomplishment of the Tiger's Roar Fist!

"Aow..."

Lin Xuan opened his eyes and threw a punch, a tiger's roar erupted from his body, and the surrounding weeds scattered and flew.

"Finally, Great Accomplishment!"

Lin Xuan withdrew his consciousness from the Soul Suppressing Pagoda and let out a long breath.

Including the previous six years of entry and proficiency, it had taken him a full sixteen years to cultivate the Yellow Grade, low-rank martial skill, Tiger's Roar Fist, to Great Accomplishment.

With such aptitude, he was simply useless. If it weren't for the Soul Suppressing Pagoda, there would be no point in cultivating at all.

There were still 39 years left, but the Bloodline Power was exhausted. Continuing to cultivate was as slow as a snail's pace, so Lin Xuan didn't waste any more time.

"I need to earn contribution points and exchange them for a saber technique at the Martial Pavilion. The Pig Slaughtering Blade made of refined steel is obviously struggling against demonic beasts. I still need a mortal weapon."

Lin Xuan suddenly felt a great responsibility on his shoulders. The path of cultivation was truly not easy.

Collecting his thoughts, Lin Xuan began to cut pig grass. Now that he was at the mid-stage of Body Tempering, his speed of cutting pig grass was very fast. In less than an hour, Lin Xuan carried the pig grass down the mountain.

At this time, Niu Fang quietly arrived at the breeding farm.

He went directly to the person in charge of the breeding farm. They spoke for a while, and then he left with a cold smile
