Delin sighed with emotion: "Linley, perhaps I have always underestimated this little fellow, Lei Lin!"

Linley asked curiously: "Underestimated? What do you mean?"

Delin: "I previously only thought that this little fellow Lei Lin could break through to the Saint Realm, but with only medium elemental affinity, it would be basically impossible for him to make any further progress after reaching the Saint Realm!"

"But just now, when this kid was provoked and went all out, I finally confirmed it!"

"As long as this little fellow continues to grow, he will definitely be able to reach the Saint Realm!"

Linley: "Σ(⊙▽⊙"a, definitely able to reach the Saint Realm!!!"

Delin: "That's right, definitely able to reach the Saint Realm."

"Because the most important hurdle to breaking through to the Saint Realm has already been cleared by him. The reason he hasn't broken through yet is simply due to a lack of accumulation!"

"I'm old, I really am... old!"

"In the future, not to mention another god-level expert appearing on the continent, but at least the emergence of another existence at the peak of the Saint Realm is a certainty!"

Linley: "Grandpa Delin, what is that hurdle to breaking through to the Saint Realm?"

Delin smiled and said: "It is not yet time for you to consider such things. Wait until you reach the ninth rank in the future before thinking about it!"

"Right now, I should congratulate you, little fellow. As long as the secret records of your clan are correct, I might be able to witness the birth of a so-called Dragonblood Warrior with my own eyes!"

Linley, who was just about to continue questioning, felt his head get patted. Coming back to his senses, he looked at Lei Lin and heard him ask strangely: "What happened to you just now? You were staring blankly. Was it because my speed was too fast and it scrambled your brains?"

Linley snapped out of it and immediately changed the subject: "Brother Lei Lin, your speed just now was truly fast. Is that a speed that can be reached at the seventh rank?"

"It looked like magic, but it wasn't quite magic. It didn't look like a battle technique either?"

Lei Lin laughed: "Hmm, that is the Lightning Step I created myself, specifically for escaping. It's fast, right? According to my teacher, the speed is already comparable to a ninth-rank expert."

"And because I can fly, ordinary ninth-rank magic beasts can't catch up to me. In this Magic Beast Mountain Range, as long as I don't run into a flying ninth-rank magic beast, they basically have no hope of catching me!"

Lei Lin wasn't just saying this casually. This Lightning Step had indeed consumed a vast amount of his energy, fusing various knowledge he had exchanged for with the various acceleration, lightness, and explosive magic of the lightning attribute in the Coiling Dragon World.

After all, only by staying alive can one output damage!

Of course, he had also fantasized about whether he could use this to gain entry into the profound mysteries related to the speed of the Law of Lightning, but...

He had no concrete feeling about it at all, or rather, he wasn't sure if he had comprehended any related profound mysteries. After all, he had no one to compare himself to. As for the increase in speed, could the performance of being comparable to the ninth rank serve as proof?

Heh~, he was already cheating; if he couldn't suppress experts of the same rank, would that even be normal?!

As he spoke, he quickly took out a magic container used for storing precious herbs from his body and said: "Linley, I don't have any spare magic containers with me, and you won't be able to get ninth-rank dragon blood in the short term, so I will keep these Blue Heart Grass for you for now!"

"After we return, I will use two stalks of Blue Heart Grass to make a potion to preserve them, trying my best to ensure the medicinal properties, and then keep the other two in my Magic Laboratory to keep them as fresh as possible."

"Of course, the most important thing is the dragon blood."

"I can't do anything about Saint Realm dragon blood, but I will find a way to get you a portion of ninth-rank dragon blood as soon as possible for the awakening test. You should prepare yourself during this time."

"A Dragonblood Warrior, it really is something to yearn for!"

"Let's end this training trip here. We need to head back first; the processing of the Blue Heart Grass cannot be delayed!"

While Lei Lin was chattering away, he took out several special crystal test tubes: "Right, let me draw a few tubes of blood first. It's a pity I only brought a few test tubes for this trip, and my tools aren't complete. This small sample is only enough for some preliminary work."

"After we return to the kingdom, I'll give you a comprehensive physical examination, trying my best to ensure..."

Listening to what sounded like Lei Lin's increasingly terrifying words, Linley inexplicably felt a chill down his back, feeling that his future seemed a bit ominous.

"Wait, wait, Brother Lei Lin, the Living Dragon Blood used to activate the bloodline has a time limit. It must be fresh or have left the body for only a few minutes at most. We can't rush it. Besides, I plan to go back to my hometown first to see my father and brother. As for the specific physical exam, blood drawing, and so on, let's talk about it after I return home!"

"There's no need to be so urgent, really no need!"

Lei Lin was startled: "Back to your hometown? Hmm, it's reasonable to spend time with family and relax after finishing a training trip!"

"As for the limitations of the dragon blood, don't underestimate my level as an Alchemist. It's just a matter of maintaining its activity; I have plenty of ways to handle that."

Afterward, he took out two test tubes that already contained magic beast blood, poured the blood out, and used magic to clean them before saying: "But this matter really shouldn't be rushed. Then let me draw two more tubes of blood to try and complete the preliminary preparations as much as possible!"

Squeak squeak~ (Enough, too much~, too much~)

Feeling Linley's dread at the sight of the two new test tubes, Beibei, who shared a mental connection with him, couldn't help but stand up to stop Lei Lin.

But Lei Lin, who couldn't understand and didn't want to understand what Beibei meant, had his eyes light up: "Hmm, come to think of it, Beibei, you are a mutated magic beast, right? I only thought you were cute before, but being able to mutate to the point of easily slaughtering a seventh-rank Velociraptor is quite extraordinary!"

"Give me a tube of blood too!"

"Hahaha~"

In the end, Lei Lin, having drawn a tube of blood from both Linley and Beibei, laughed loudly like a Devil King who had achieved some great feat and left.

Anyway, they were already on the outskirts of the Magic Beast Mountain Range, and with Linley and Beibei's strength, there wouldn't be any danger.

Linley, who remained in place, looked at the pile of sixth and seventh-rank Magic Cores left behind by Lei Lin and couldn't help but be stunned, sighing: "Brother Lei Lin, even if he wasn't from a noble family in the Royal Capital, just by relying on training in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, he could probably easily support his family!"

Beibei was also staring at the Magic Cores in Linley's hand, inexplicably feeling greedy, and swallowed one in a single gulp: "Squeak~ (Boss, Lei Lin is actually a pretty good guy!)"

Delin, who was on the side, also looked at Linley and said: "To be able to befriend such a person, you really are..."

Before he could finish, the lightning-fast Lei Lin appeared in front of Linley again: "Almost forgot, take this."

Taking the crystal handed to him by Lei Lin, Linley asked: "Brother Lei Lin, what is this?"

Lei Lin held an identical crystal: "A magic item I developed—a Communication Crystal. As long as both of us input magic power at the same time, we can communicate."
