10 Legendary Levels
Fragment of Primordial Origin?
Lin Xueqin stared at the floating text with mouth gaping wide. Then, his face slowly shaped into that of ecstasy.
Sure enough, his choice was adequate. Fortunately, instead of choosing the 'Legendary Levels of Spirit Refinement', he absorbed the diary. Otherwise, he would have regretted his decision!
However, Lin Xueqin suddenly frowned.
What did Senior Zhou Yan mean by Apostles?... So the Outer Gods have already invaded the Inner World long ago...and had chosen their apostles?
But what troubled Lin Xueqin wasn't that but the fact that the apostles seemed to be Traitors of the Inner World. After all, the Outer Gods were the arch-enemies of this world...
"Forget it. I'll eventually meet them anyway," Lin Xueqin's eyes flashed with a cold light. "It's best for all of you not to mess with me! I, Lin Xueqin, only wish to seek the mystery of the boundless cosmos. Force me, I shall grant you death, and slaughter you until no bones and ashes would remain!"
Lin Xueqin took in a deep breath. He then commanded the system to use the «Fragment of Primordial Origin»
[You have used the Fragment of Primordial Origin. Unlocked the following functions...]
[Detection: Once the user is around ten zhang(20 m) of a person with a rare absorbable constitution, the detection would automatically alert the host. Passive Skill]
[Inspection: The user would be capable of inspecting anyone and anything. There's no limitation. Active Skill]
Lin Xueqin's eyes shone seeing the description. The more he read, the more his hands trembled in excitement.
Jackpot!
Bloody Jackpot!
With these skills, he would have more chances of absorbing good things than those crappy ones. It would also aid him not to waste his 'Daily Absorption' into something bad.
As he thought up here, the more excited he became. Although he was greatly troubled by the matter of the Outer Gods and the Apostles, this surprise has compensated his troubled heart.
At that moment, Lin Xueqin suddenly pondered. Since he was already here, he might as well cultivate before leaving.
Lin Xueqin nodded at this decision. He decided that he would leave once he achieved the strength of the Golden Core Realm.
When he remembered the Lin Family and his great plan, he felt a magma erupting in his heart.
I, Lin Xueqin, will annihilate the Lin Family...Overturn the Mulberry Town. This is my promise to the Lin Xueqin of this world!
The next day, Lin Xueqin waited for the time of his daily absorption...
[Absorbed 'Legendary Levels of Spirit Refinement?']
[Absorb!] Lin Xueqin replied.
[Absorbed Legendary Levels of Spirit Refinement. You have obtained the Spirit Refinement's secret formula...]
[Man Formula: Consume five hundred old herbs 500x]
[Earth Formula: Consume 10 million spirit stones]
[Heaven Formula: Consume herbs. The more and higher grades the herb are, the more successful on achieving Heaven stage Spirit Refinement]
After looking at the words, Lin Xueqin closed his eyes and briefly scanned the secret formulas.
Man Stage: After achieving it, one would awaken the Spirit Manipulation while spiritual energy would enhance by twofold
...
Earth Stage: After achieving it, one would gain a complete awakening of the Spirit Manipulation while mental strength increases twofold.
...
Heaven Stage: After achieving it, one could finally utilize the Spirit Manipulation.
A while later, Lin Xueqin opened his eyes with excitement. Indeed, the secret formula did not disappoint him!
The formula had listed the way on how to cultivate the legendary levels of Spiritual Refinement!
After having this thought, Lin Xueqin could not wait for tomorrow to arrive as he sat in meditation.
The next morning, within the cave, hundreds of herbs were scattered in the ground. Nearby, Lin Xueqin sat cross-legged, eyes closed.
He waited for the refresh of his Daily Absorption. A sound buzzed inside his head, jolting him awake. Next, he rubbed his hands in excitement as he circulated the Man Formula. Then, he mumbled, "Absorb hundreds of herbs."
[You have absorbed herbs 500x. Absorbable energy obtained.]
Lin Xueqin did not hesitate to absorb the energy. He then guided these energies into his flesh as they make their way to his dantian.
With a rumbling sound, a torrent of energies crashed into his dantian, filling it up completely. The foundation around the dantian lit up.
However, Lin Xueqin did not allow it to build a Foundation Establishment. Instead, he allowed the Man Formula to circulate to the max.
With the Man Formula, the rumbling in the dantian slowly subsided. The Foundation Establishment that was about to form crumbled, turning into wild energies.
With the knowledge imprinted on him, Lin Xueqin knew that he had to navigate these wild energies, then let them form into a singular orb.
Face full of sweat, Lin Xueqin navigated the wild energies which were rampaging on his dantian, letting it form into a small orb. Half a long hour later(1 hour), Lin Xueqin opened his eyes with excitement.
"Man stage, Spirit Refinement achieved!"
As he said that, Lin Xueqin collapsed on the ground, his face full of smiles...
...
...
...
These two days, the mulberry town has it rough. The Lin Family seemed to turn into a vicious beast out for blood. The Heavenly Battle Troops, which were the personal soldiers of the Lin Family, were fully dispatched into the four gates of the town, not letting anyone leave for the time being.
Many tried to fight with them. Screams and blood rang out in these two days, yet corpses remained the next morning.
All of this huge horror was because someone had stolen the books in the Public Library. It seemed that the continuous unfortunate events had greatly infatuated the Lins, which its anger finally erupted...
The Xin family had also recently become the topic of discussion. When Xin Wuque, the young master of the Xin Family, had offended the tyrant in the public plaza a few days ago, the Lin Family came knocking on their door.
Five businesses they own were robbed which caused the Xin Patriarch to gritted his teeth in frustration. He even coughed blood on the spot when he heard that his unfilial son had offended the tyrant of the town.
Xin Wuque had his days rough. His father had beaten him, cursing him, and spanking him with ten rods. He was also grounded for a week with no food nor alcohol or women. He had to read the 'Morality Book' which is said to be the most tedious book that exists. It was said after two days of his imprisonment, he couldn't bear the insanity and howled like a dog...
At this moment, Lin Wen, the Patriarch of the Lins, stood blankly in his courtyard. The glass that he was holding had cracked a bit. His thoughts preoccupied with the future of the Lins...
What's happening?
Whose bastard is targeting us?
After stealing all the wealth we accumulated, he did not even spare six books!
And that god damn Lin Xueqin... who helped him escape?
Damn....it!
"Patriarch, patriarch, bad news!"
A voice rang out. Lin Wen immediately awake from his trance to stare at a male servant running towards him.
"What happened?"
The male servant cupped his fists and knelt. He said, "Patriarch, there are two things...The first one is that...we found five fresh corpses this morning."
"What?!" Lin Wen's eyes popped open. He roared, "Tell me what happened!"
The male servant quavered, "He...they....their blood were sucked dry."
Lin Wen's hands were trembling. With gritted teeth, he enunciated, "LIN XUEQIN!"
His roar shook the entire Lin Household. Many heard it and they shivered in fear. The male servant who was nearby almost fainted.
"Find that bastard now! What happened to the protectors? Why haven't they found that little bastard yet?!"
The male servant opened his mouth. "Patriarch, they were doing a tedious job..."
"What job?" Lin Wen was puzzled. However, when the male servant opened his mouth, Lin Wen almost fainted.
"...With women."
Lin Wen was stunned. Face red, hands trembling, he almost lost control of his spiritual energy. If he had lost control, the life of this pitiful male servant would have been over.
"Call them right now!" Lin Wen tried his best to remain cool-headed. He suddenly remembered. "What's the other news?"
"That..." The male servant hesitated.
"Speak!" Lin Wen felt furious at that sight.
"Alright...Patriarch, it just that..." The male servant's voice flushed here, "Lin Mingyue is pregnant..."
"And you're going to be the Grandfather."
"..."
Lin Wen did not know whether to laugh or cry. Blood rushed to his head, and he fainted...
"..."
The male servant was stunned. He hurriedly ran out, shouting,
"Patriarch has fainted, quick help him!"
