Chapter 346 - Three Strongmen (1/2)

As Vulture and Young Ke expected, in just one night, news about Lin Xun spread all over the Forbidden City fast, causing numerous comments and uproars.

Some people jokingly called Lin Xun the Youngest Patriarch of Aristocratic Family in the Forbidden City.

Certainly, there was another title full of stinging humor, the Most Lonely Aristocratic Leader in the Peaks!

The fact behind these jokes was that Lin Xun was really too young.

He was only in his teens. There was no other leader of aristocratic families got such a high position at this age.

Moreover, being alone, he as the successor of Lin Family was in such a pitiful situation. He just got a name without any wealth and human resources in a precarious situation.

All in all, Lin Xun’s name was sounded in the Forbidden City overnight. People enjoyed talking about his news, which made him popular. But his reputation was neither better nor worse.

…

Lin Xun didn’t know all this.

He had closed door practicing during these seven days.

Heart-cleansing Peak was peaceful in these days. All the chores and things were solved orderly by Vulture.

On the evening of the seventh day, Lin Zhong went to the third floor of Heart-cleansing Peak as usual. He needed to report many things to Lin Xun, so he came here every day.

Lin Zhong didn’t want to disturb Lin Xun as Lin Xun was still in the practicing room.

Seeing the bronze gate was closed as before, he was ready to leave.

At this moment, a dull sound hummed. The closed bronze gate was slowly opened.

Lin Zhong’s spirit was suddenly refreshed. Lin Xun finally came out!

He looked around and saw Lin Xun walking out.

To Lin Zhong’s surprise, compared with the past, Lin Xun’s temperament at present was more extraordinary. His dark eyes were deep and clear and he behaved calmly and sedately.

Immediately, Lin Zhong realized that Lin Xun’s cultivation was improved. He beamed and cheered, “Congratulations to your promotion to Heaven-gang Realm!”

Lin Xun smiled and asked, “Granddad Zhong, how long have I been here?”

“Seven days.”

Lin Xun was in a trance.

He didn’t expect that his cultivation was improved as overflowing water when he swallowed the root of Infant-shaped Snow Ginseng at this time.

Lin Xun keenly realized this promotion was totally different from the past. Not only his power, but also his body and soul had a comprehensive transformation!

All this made him forget the passing of time in his practice. Until now, he figured out that it took him seven days to advance.

Since this promotion took him a week of time, he harvested a lot. First, as he promoted himself to Heaven-gang Realm, the strength of Earth-gang realm in his body was transformed into Heaven-gang Realm perfectly. His spirit power was more than twice as strong as before.

At the same time, his body and soul had been further transformed and become stronger. Lin Xun had previously tested that ordinary weapons could hardly scratch his skin!

In his Sea of Consciousness, more than ten soul stars had been lit up this time. So there were 72 soul stars twinkling in his Sea of Consciousness at present. They shed gentle light and nourished his soul constantly.

All of these made Lin Xun’s spiritual perception improved a lot. He was able to detect all the information for ten thousands meters around!

This was Heaven-gang Realm.

By improving from Earth-gang Realm to Heaven-gang Realm, practitioners could understand the general trend of heaven and earth and perceive the meteorological phenomena in the world. This change was like a rebirth for a practitioner.

All his cultivation, soul and body’s transformation meant that he was accumulating strength for the next new stage, Sea Spirit Realm!

This was a process of building up momentum. The more profound his accumulation was, the more benefits he would obtain when breaking through to Sea Spirit Realm.

“Young master.”

Lin Zhong said, “There are many things going on these days when you practiced. I need to report them to you.”

“Tell then, Granddad Zhong,”

Lin Xun went downstairs.

“Seven days ago, according to your order, I contacted Shi Yu and finished my task.”

Lin Zhong followed Lin Xun while reporting to him.

“You’ve done it?”

Lin Xun was surprised.

“Yes, Childe Shi Yu had already publicized your reputation through spiritual light curtain in the Forbidden City. Now your name was being publicized everywhere in the Forbidden City.”

Lin Zhong explained.

Lin Xun smiled, “I didn’t expect that Shi Yu is so influential. I owed him much as he took the use of spiritual light curtain.”

Lin Zhong continued, “Childe Shi Yu also asked me to tell you that he is going to hold an auction in ten days. At that time, he will invite many top-class forces in the Forbidden City to participate. If you are interested, you can go at that time.”

Lin Xun nodded, “I see. Is there anything else?”

Lin Zhong replied, “In addition, Vulture has returned and recruited three powerful people to Heart-cleansing Peak. He said that you can have a look in person when you’ve finished practicing. ”

Lin Xun was stunned, “He only recruited three people?”

Lin Zhong responded with a strange look, “Yes, only three people. But according to my observation, none of them is a simple person.”
