Chapter 196 (1/2)

Of course, Lin Xun had no idea what happened in the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists, but he felt contented and considered this visit fruitful.

After he was authenticated as a primary spiritual tattooist, he found it more convenient to make money, for he didn’t need to do everything by himself.

As he was back home, Shue Jin who had been slept soundly got up suddenly and shouted, “My wine, where is my wine?”

“I didn’t forget it.”

With a smile, Lin Xun took out a newly bought jar of Soul-burning liquor from his Storage Ring and threw it to Shue Jin.

“Your trip seems very fruitful,” Shue Jin glanced at Lin Xun.

“Not bad. I don’t need to rush around anymore. As long as I refine a spiritual weapon, I’ll consign it to the Commune for sale.”

Lin Xun told Shue Jin what had happened in the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists.

To his surprise, Shue Jin suddenly said with a sneer, “There is no free lunch. He must be up to something. Kid, I have to remind you. Since Chu Feng dares to sign the ‘God-Devil Agreement’ with you, he must have a bigger picture.”

Lin Xun nodded, “That’s what I am thinking. I bear in mind that I have to pay a price as big as the gain I obtain.”

Having known that Lin Xun understood the principles therein, Shue Jin sighed with emotion, “You’ll know that a person’s favor is the most difficult thing to pay back in the world!”

He seemed to recall something, shook his head dispiritedly, and fell asleep with the jar in his arms.

Looking at Shue Jin, Lin Xun thought for a while. Afterward, he smiled and walked into his room.

A grasp of mundane affairs is genuine knowledge, and understanding of worldly wisdom is true learning. Since his childhood, Lin Xun knew that if you cared about it, the so-called people’s favor was heavier than a mountain; but if you didn’t give a damn, it was lighter than a goose feather.

If Chu Feng made any improper demand someday in the future, Lin Xun would have to carefully think about it.

If it were something within his ability, Lin Xun would definitely lend a hand. But that was something in the future. At least for now, he didn’t have to worry about it.

…

After entering his room, Lin Xun spent a couple hours refining a Snowfall Saber, a Blood-bronzed Spear, and a pair of Gusty-wind Boots at one fling with all the spiritual inks and materials he bought.

The three spiritual tools were all quality middle-grade spiritual weapons of Human-rank. Besides, totally unlike that of those traded in the market, their power was improved greatly after Lin’s refining.

Ooh~

Lin Xun heaved a long breath of foul air. He could refine only three spiritual tools a day at most based on his cultivation and spiritual energy at present.

He was unable to refine one more.

However, Lin Xun didn’t know that it was already a miracle for a spiritual tattooist to refine three spiritual weapons without a failure in only a few hours!

It was nearly impossible for other spiritual tattooists to do that!

An ordinary spiritual tattooist would spend three to five days refining a Snowfall Saber. Besides, he couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t fail.

From this aspect, one should know how terrifying Lin Xun’s cultivation was in spiritual tattoos.

There were some reasons. On one hand, he had learned a lot on spiritual tattoos from Master Lu and practiced inscribing since his childhood; on the other hand, his extremely profound cultivation foundation and greatly domineering spiritual energy provided strong support for him to inscribe spiritual tattoos.

More importantly, a trace of mysterious fluctuation of the Gate to Heaven guaranteed the 100% success of refining spiritual weapons each time. Consequentially, he wouldn’t fail.

What was more unbelievable was that the spiritual weapons refined by Lin Xun saw great improvements in their power!

All the above factors together facilitated Lin Xun to possess the unimaginable accomplishments and techniques in spiritual tattoos.

After he put the refined spiritual weapons away, he started to practice Meditating Magic and Nature Insight & Spirit-Devour Scripture as usual.

When he left the Bloodthirsty Camp, he had just reached the Human-gang Realm. Now, he needed to strengthen and consolidate his cultivation and get himself well prepared for the Province Test held in half a year.

As far as Lin Xun was concerned, the practitioners qualified for the test were all powerful figures who stood out among thousands of people after rounds of selection.

It was no exaggeration to say that the practitioners who were qualified to attend the test had already proved that they were extraordinarily powerful.

Under such circumstances, Lin Xun didn’t dare to slack off however confident he was.

Late at night, Lin Xun was in bed awake after finishing his practice. He was thinking what he needed to do next.

“I have to refine a set of weapon and equipment to maximize my fighting ability during the Province Test.”

“Besides, I need to gather some intelligence about this test and analyze the fighting ability of each practitioner involved, so I can fully prepared.”

“But, the top priority now is to consolidate my cultivation. Now that I have just reached the Human-gang Realm, I should have a reference point to judge my advantages and disadvantages…”

After having a rough picture of what to do the next day, he fell asleep.
