Chapter 9

"Bang!"

A muffled sound echoed from the Life and Death Arena, and everyone watching widened their eyes in astonishment.

No one could have imagined that the reversal would come so quickly.

A Useless Body, entering the sect for three days, forcefully killing a fifth-grade aptitude disciple who directly entered the outer sect – this had never happened in the history of the Holy Land.

One must know that a fifth-grade aptitude directly entering the outer sect meant stepping onto the path of immortality in one step.

For those servants, reaching that step would take at least half a year, and that was on the premise that they had a third or fourth-grade aptitude.

A Useless Body entering the path of immortality in three days was simply shocking.

"Pfft!"

On the Life and Death Arena, Zhang Tao spat out a mouthful of blood, his terrified eyes wide.

"You…"

He looked at Lin Xuan, endless regret surging into his heart. The joy and pride of stepping onto the path of immortality were completely shattered at this moment.

He regretted it. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have provoked Lin Xuan in the first place. If he had another chance, he would definitely not provoke Lin Xuan again.

Zhang Tao's gaze gradually lost its luster, and his vitality faded away.

"Buzz!"

At this moment, the Soul Suppressing Pagoda in the depths of Lin Xuan's mind trembled. Then, within the Myriad Ages in an Instant space, a ball of Blood Essence energy emerged, and a wisp of faint light was drawn in.

"It actually absorbed two years' worth of time? As expected, the stronger the existence, the more time it can steal."

"But what is this Blood Essence energy?"

Lin Xuan didn't pay attention to Zhang Tao, frowning in thought.

He was about to use his mind to understand the suddenly appearing Blood Essence energy, but a voice interrupted his thoughts.

"You dare to kill Young Master Zhang?"

It was none other than Zhang Tao's follower, Ma San, from Clearwater Town.

Beside him, Liu Qi also looked at Lin Xuan in disbelief.

"Idiot!"

Lin Xuan curled his lips, looking at the two like idiots. "Don't worry, I'll send you both on your way sooner or later."

With that, Lin Xuan gave a bloodthirsty smile.

"Ah!"

Ma San and Liu Qi finally reacted, screaming and retreating.

Their faces turned as white as paper in an instant. At this moment, they both admired their own courage for daring to question this evil star.

They were really tired of living. He was someone who even killed Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao, a genius who had already stepped onto the path of immortality…

Because of fear, Ma San and Liu Qi were trembling all over.

Lin Xuan stopped paying attention to them, turned around, and prepared to leave the Life and Death Arena.

"Outer sect disciples can receive 10 sect contribution points per month. In a Life and Death Arena challenge, the victor obtains everything from the loser."

A familiar voice rang in Lin Xuan's ears, causing him to stop.

Looking around, he quickly saw the figure of Elder Xu Qin.

Lin Xuan bowed to Xu Qin from afar, squatted down, took off Zhang Tao's disciple token, and directly transferred the contribution points from Zhang Tao's token into his own.

Then, he jumped off the Life and Death Arena and headed towards the animal breeding garden.

"Whoosh..."

Only after he left did a commotion erupt at the Life and Death Arena.

"Heavens, is he really a Myriad Ages Useless Body?"

"A Myriad Ages Useless Body, entering the path of immortality three days after joining the sect, killing a fifth-grade aptitude outer sect disciple… the test must have been wrong, it must have been wrong."

"I remember him. He received the Body Strengthening Pill like me, not the Body Forging Pill. That means he entered the Body Forging Realm with the Body Strengthening Pill. He must have trained his physique to the extreme beforehand…"

"That means his cultivation path will still be very difficult in the future. After all, he is a Useless Body. The aptitude test can't be wrong."

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. The original shock quietly disappeared.

No one would admit that they were inferior to a Useless Body; they were just jealous.

While everyone was discussing, the servant in charge, Niu Fang, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What a waste, killed by a Useless Body. I called him Senior Brother for nothing, and didn't get any benefits."

Muttering, Niu Fang turned his gaze towards the direction Lin Xuan left, a faint killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Lin Xuan didn't know any of this. As he walked towards the animal breeding garden, he focused his mind on the first level of the Soul Suppressing Pagoda.

As his thoughts touched the ball of Blood Essence energy, a strong power was immediately injected into his body, and his Blood Essence began to boil.

A flash of light appeared in Lin Xuan's eyes, and his heart was filled with joy. "This is actually Bloodline Power!"

"In other words, killing beings with cultivation not only steals time but also Bloodline Power."

"Hahaha..."

Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh. In this way, even with his Useless Body, his cultivation progress wouldn't fall behind.

As long as he had enough Bloodline Power, he could quickly complete the Four Mortal Realms.

At this moment, the blood-colored energy had been completely absorbed, and half a month had passed inside the Soul Suppressing Pagoda.

Lin Xuan's consciousness returned to his body, and he immediately felt a significant increase in his Blood Essence, enough to equal a year of his own cultivation.

"Pig butchering, pig butchering!"

"If I remember correctly, Wild Boars are all in the early Body Forging Realm. If killing one pig allows me to absorb so much Bloodline Power, I'll quickly reach the mid-Body Forging Realm."

Lin Xuan's face was full of excitement as he quickened his pace towards the breeding garden.

"Breeding Room Three, slaughter ten in the morning, then go to the back mountain to cut a thousand pounds of pig feed. Slaughter ten more in the afternoon, and then come to me to collect contribution points."

Under the arrangement of the breeding garden supervisor, Lin Xuan went directly to Breeding Room Three.

Inside the breeding room, a Wild Boar several times larger than an ordinary pig, with sharp fangs, was staring at Lin Xuan with bloodthirsty eyes.

"Niu Fang, you deserve to die! Your days as a miscellaneous duty elder are over."

The moment he saw the Wild Boar, Lin Xuan's eyes turned cold.

Although this Wild Boar was raised, it was also in the early Body Forging Realm. A handyman who hadn't reached the Body Forging Realm would probably die if they got close.

The determination to kill Niu Fang now had the added urgency of 'as soon as possible'.

Regaining his composure, Lin Xuan didn't think too much. He drew the Pig Slaughtering Blade from his waist and stepped into the breeding room.

"Grunt, grunt..."

The Wild Boar immediately charged towards him on all fours.

Lin Xuan's eyes sharpened, and he thrust out the steel blade in his hand.

"Six Forms of Pig Butchering, First Form, Deep Throat!"

After ten years of pig butchering and decades of studying pig butchering techniques with the help of the Soul Suppressing Pagoda, Lin Xuan's every move was perfect.

Whether it was an ordinary pig or this Wild Boar with the bloodline of a demonic beast, it couldn't cause any trouble in front of Lin Xuan.

In just a few seconds, the Wild Boar fell to the ground, its bloodthirsty eyes still filled with disbelief.

"Buzz!"

The Soul Suppressing Pagoda vibrated, and a ball of blood-colored Bloodline Power and a faint glow were absorbed.

"More Bloodline Power than Zhang Tao, and it stole three years of time."

"Heh... Fifth-grade talent is inferior to a pig."

Lin Xuan sneered, dragged the Wild Boar away to process it, and then continued butchering pigs.

If the dead Zhang Tao knew what Lin Xuan was thinking at this moment, would he be so angry that he would come back to life...?
