Breaking Through the Body Forging Realm

"Lin Xuan, Body Tempering mid-stage."

Ling Yan showed no reaction even after Lin Xuan announced his name.

However, upon hearing Lin Xuan's cultivation realm, she slightly furrowed her brow.

"Are mere servants now so disrespectful to the outer sect? Since when are Body Tempering mid-stages being allowed in?"

Ling Yan's voice was cold as she looked at the chief steward.

At that moment, not only the chief steward but even Lin Xuan felt immense pressure.

Lin Xuan was secretly shocked; the gap between Blood Refinement mid-stage and the Body Forging Realm was indeed significant.

The chief steward was terrified and hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Ling Yan misunderstands. Lin Xuan defeated Niu Fang, the original Body Tempering late-stage steward, a few days ago and seized the position."

"Oh?"

Ling Yan's gaze finally landed on Lin Xuan.

"You defeated a Body Tempering late-stage while at Body Tempering mid-stage? You're quite capable?"

A hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes at the appropriate moment.

"This disciple was merely fortunate," Lin Xuan replied calmly.

The group of servants cast glances at him, clearly displeased.

Some of them had been present that day; Lin Xuan's victory was not luck but genuine strength. Saying that now was no different from flexing.

Ling Yan keenly noticed this, and the curiosity in her eyes deepened.

"Luck is also a manifestation of strength. Very well, you will come with me. We depart at noon. Go to the stables and get a Gale Wind Horse; say I sent you."

After speaking, Ling Yan turned and left directly, decisive and efficient, without any hesitation.

The group of servant stewards was stunned, especially those at Body Tempering peak-stage, who looked at Lin Xuan with even greater displeasure.

"Hmph... truly lucky."

"Body Tempering mid-stage, can he even fight demonic beasts? Don't go and never return."

"Alright, disperse. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

The chief steward said softly, and the crowd then shut their mouths and left.

Afterward, he looked at Lin Xuan: "Junior Brother Lin, congratulations. I didn't expect you to be noticed by Senior Sister Ling Yan. If you have a bountiful harvest, don't forget to treat Senior Brother to a medicinal meal."

"I will!"

Lin Xuan smiled slightly, but his heart was somewhat heavy.

There were not so many coincidences in the world. Although this Ling Yan showed nothing unusual, with Chen Ze's reminder, Lin Xuan had to be vigilant.

Of course, Lin Xuan had no intention of refusing to go.

Now, obtaining both time and blood essence was difficult, and Yan Hui Mountain was a good place to go.

Perhaps he could obtain a large amount of time and blood essence there, and he had the Soul Suppressing Pagoda as his trump card.

Although Ling Yan was at Blood Refinement mid-stage, he might not be able to kill her, but with his proficient Concealed Breath Stride, Lin Xuan was confident he could leave unscathed.

"Alright, Junior Brother, go and prepare well. I await your good news."

The chief steward patted Lin Xuan's shoulder and then turned to leave.

Lin Xuan ignored him and walked toward the resting area.

At noon, Lin Xuan arrived at the stables on time to collect a Gale Wind Horse.

Gale Wind Horses, like Wild Boars, were creatures with demonic beast bloodlines, but compared to Wild Boars, Gale Wind Horses were more docile.

At the Divine Firmament Holy Land's mountain gate, below the Floating Training Grounds, under the towering mountain gate, Ling Yan was already waiting.

"Since you're here, let's go. Follow me!"

Ling Yan did not waste words and directly rode away, and Lin Xuan hurriedly followed.

Fifty miles, at the speed of a Gale Wind Horse, was crossed in less than two quarters of an hour.

Yan Hui Mountain stretched for eight hundred miles. Entering it, lush trees blotted out the sky, and only occasional rays of sunlight could be seen filtering through the leaves.

"My mission is to go thirty miles deep into Yan Hui Mountain to kill an Earth-Rending Bear at Blood Refinement mid-stage and retrieve its heart and bones."

"Along the way, you will be responsible for leading the horse and dealing with some Body Tempering Realm demonic beasts. I need to maintain my optimal condition."

In Yan Hui Mountain, Ling Yan's cold voice echoed back.

"Yes, Senior Sister!"

Lin Xuan replied, but the vigilance in his heart rose again.

Ling Yan had not revealed anything, but Lin Xuan had to be wary.
