In the room, Lin Langtian's expression was thoughtful. After a long while, a surge of spiritual impact suddenly erupted from his Mud Pill Palace.

The moment it surged out, Lin Langtian's mind moved. He quickly controlled the spiritual power, then continuously formed hand seals, modifying this spiritual power.

As the hand seals were rapidly formed, the formless spiritual power immediately changed. In the blink of an eye, the formless spiritual power condensed into a terrifying spiritual great hand that was a zhang in size.

This spiritual great hand not only had form but also exuded an aura of slaughter. Black spiral patterns coiled around the palm, and at a glance, one could tell its killing power was extremely formidable.

However, the only flaw was that its form appeared too illusory, merely a superficial resemblance. It was nowhere near as powerful as the Demon God's Hand condensed by Cao Kun's Spiritual Fire.

Of course, Lin Langtian had only just learned this Demon God's Hand and was only a Two-Seal Talisman Master. Being able to reach this point was already quite good. Once he became more proficient, it would likely be much better than it was now.

In the room, Lin Langtian was clearly very interested in this Demon God's Hand. Being able to master this Qi-grade Spiritual Secret Skill so quickly indicated that his talent had indeed increased significantly.

He continuously dispersed the spiritual great hand and then condensed it again, in order to become proficient with that special sealing technique as quickly as possible.

Under this enjoyable training, the form of the 'Demon God's Hand' gradually solidified at a slow pace...

Over the next three days, Lin Langtian barely left his room. All his time was spent tempering his spiritual power and cultivating the Qi-grade Spiritual Secret Skill he had just obtained, the Demon God's Hand.

In just three days, Lin Langtian's cultivation was extremely intense. He even consumed the Ninth-grade Spirit Medicine, Breakthrough Flower, that he had purchased at the Royal Auction House.

The results of this consumption were quite significant.

Lin Langtian's Primal Energy cultivation had now successfully broken through to the Qi Shaping Realm, and his strength had once again climbed!

Moreover, the Natal Talisman Seal within his Mud Pill Palace had condensed into a solid, physical form. From the talisman seal, Lin Langtian could clearly feel a powerful force rapidly condensing.

Furthermore, in the center of the solid-looking Natal Talisman Seal, there was a faint, extremely small crack. This was not damage, but a sign of reaching the peak of a Two-Seal Talisman Master.

By continuously absorbing the vast spiritual power of the Talisman Master sealed within the Golden Spirit Wheel, Lin Langtian's spiritual power cultivation was also constantly increasing.

When this crack completely split open, this Natal Talisman Seal would split into three, and that would be the time he advanced to a Three-Seal Talisman Master!

As for the 'Demon God's Hand,' Lin Langtian had also become much more proficient. Although he hadn't tested its power yet, he figured he could probably fight some Yuan Dan Realm experts with just his spiritual power alone.

As his spiritual power grew stronger, this would become one of Lin Langtian's trump cards.

When the morning of the fourth day arrived, Lin Langtian, who had recuperated his state to its peak, slowly opened his eyes. A black light flashed through his pupils before disappearing without a trace.

"It's time to go back to Lin City..."

Lin Langtian leaped off the bed. Calculating the time, he had been in the Imperial Capital for over a month. Although his trip had yielded considerable gains, he still had an important task to complete.

That was to find a High-level Demonic Spirit!

Ever since Spirit Aunt had fallen into slumber, Lin Langtian had been searching for information about High-level Demonic Spirits. Unfortunately, perhaps because the Great Yan Dynasty was too remote, High-level Demonic Spirits were extremely rare.

Even in a bustling place like the Imperial Capital, Lin Langtian had not obtained any information about the trading of High-level Demonic Spirits, which disappointed him somewhat.

After all, once Spirit Aunt woke up, not only would he possess an incredibly powerful trump card, but he would also gain a teacher who could guide him through any difficulties in his cultivation.

Although Spirit Aunt was a Divine Beast and not skilled in human cultivation methods, with her knowledge, even a few casual pointers would benefit Lin Langtian greatly.

After much thought, Lin Langtian decided to prepare to return to Lin City. He would utilize the vast energy of the Lin Clan and his own identity as a Law Enforcement Elder to search for information about High-level Demonic Spirits.

The Great Yan Dynasty was vast, and perhaps some High-level Demonic Spirits were buried in some Ancient Ruins...

Having made up his mind, Lin Langtian informed Lin Tao, the steward of the Lin Mansion in the Imperial Capital, and then, along with Lin Ke'er and the other four, embarked on the journey back to Lin City.

Compared to the journey there, the return trip would undoubtedly take much less time.

In just three days, Lin Langtian and the others successfully arrived at Lin City from the Imperial Capital.

Lin Langtian was somewhat puzzled by this. He had been expecting Huangpu Ying to cause some trouble along the way, but the journey back to Lin City had been smooth sailing.

However, on second thought, if Huangpu Ying dared to ambush him halfway, even as the strongest genius among the younger generation of the Huangpu Clan, he probably couldn't bear the consequences.

This guy, true to his name, was like a shadow in the dark, never openly seeking a fight to the death.

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian stopped thinking about these matters. Huangpu Ying was just a minor character.

As long as he was given some more time to grow, he could even take down the entire Huangpu Clan!

The moment he stepped into Lin City, Lin Langtian could feel an unusual atmosphere. The surrounding pedestrians looked at him with fervent admiration in their eyes.

Lin Langtian was also somewhat puzzled by this.

Lin City was the stronghold of the Lin Clan. Those who lived here were naturally members of the Lin Clan or people close to them. Therefore, they were not unfamiliar with Lin Langtian.

However, even as the former number one genius of the Lin Clan, he had never enjoyed such reverence.

Beside him, Lin Ke'er seemed to have noticed something. Her beautiful azure eyes flickered, and she looked at Lin Langtian with a charming smile.

"It must be that Brother Langtian's divine might in destroying the Mystic Tiger Gang in the Imperial Capital has reached Lin City. This has greatly boosted the prestige of our Lin Clan, which is why everyone looks at Brother Langtian with such pride."

Lin Chen and the others beside them also nodded. Among the younger generation, there had been no one with such achievements as Lin Langtian in the past hundred years, it was unheard of!

Lin Langtian was slightly stunned by this, then chuckled and shook his head.

He hadn't expected a great battle to earn him so many fans.

However, he didn't become too complacent.

After all, popularity and prestige were not very useful in a world of Xuanhuan. Only strength was the hard truth.

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian smiled slightly, then spurred his horse onward, heading towards the largest mansion in the city center, the headquarters of the Lin Clan.

As soon as he entered the gates of the Lin Clan, a guard quickly walked up. With a look of admiration and respect, he said to Lin Langtian, "Law Enforcement Elder, the Clan Leader requests your presence."
