" Lin , would you come with me to the sacred family ?"
[ Heart Demon Soul Contract is reacting to the words of Shen Xiu ]
[ Head Demon Wish : Listen and obey the commands of Shen Xiu ] [ Duration : ∞] ( - )
Lin Lingtian couldn't help but frown as he pushed the Minus button and removed the status .
' Yeah , right like I will follow the commands of some dead Stockholm Syndrome's victim . Wait ....'
Lin Lingtian smiled at her and said ," No ."
Shen Xiu who was expecting him to faithfully go with her to the sacred family , opened her eyes in shocked .
" hahaha Lin , I must have misheard that ."
" Xiu , I want to ask something ."
" What ?" Annoyances and some traces of anger were evident in her voice .
" Why did you play with my heart ? "
" W....What ?! "
" Was it fun to play with my heart ? "
" I have no idea what you are talking about."
Hearing what she said, Lin Lingtian's anger within him began to surge. The [ War God Technique ] began to surge his soul sea as his soul force could not be suppressed any longer as his soul realm began to constantly shake. Sounds of war cries could be faintly heard, a cyan light burst into the sky, powerful aura began spreading throughout four directions.
In just a moment, being affected by intense emotion caused Lin's soul force to jump, his soul realm seemed to be undergoing transformation.
Streams of light overflowing all over two directions with Lin Lingtian as the center. Soul force began to form into a pair of wings , with an opaque black bones .
( A.N : This is Lin Lingtian's Soul Forming Wings )
"Soul forming!" Seeing this scene, Shen Xiu's face was full of shock .
Soul forming. This is the caused by the ultimate pureness of soul force! Demon spiritist that could soul form is extremely rare and normally only can be done by gold ranked genius demon spiritist. Within every ten gold rank demon spiritist, there might not even be one that could reach the realm of soul forming. However, once a demon spiritist gain the ability to soul form, his soul force would be extremely powerful. The future achievements are at least a black gold rank demon spiritist and above, there are even possibility of reaching legend rank!
( Slash )
Lin Lingtian's Wing pierced through the wall behind Shen Xiu .
" I will ask again , Why did you play with my heart ?"
Shen Xiu looked at the Soul Wing and smiled warily .
" Lin ....What are you talking about ? I have Always loved you ."
' You , To think you had such high potential . I must make him think I love him . If he can join the sacred family then we would rise to the top of Glory City . And I will be the wife of a legend rank expert .'
Lin Lingtian's wing was a blur as it came near her neck and stopped just below her voice box .
[ Heart Demon Soul Contract is reacting to your actions ]
[ Pain : Unimaginable pain will engulf your body ] [ Duration : 1 hour ] (+ - )
Due to the burning pain , Lin Lingtian stopped and pushed the minus button to terminate the status .
Sweat dripped down Shen Xiu's face .
( Gulp )
She felt , she had almost died .
Lin Lingtian frowned as his plan backfired . He wanted to push Shen Xiu to say that she played with his heart and this may had affected the Heart Demon Soul Contract but it backfired , he didn't know why but she was still claiming she loved him .
The wings on his back dissipated as he began walking out of the room but ..
" Wait , Lin ." Shen Xiu said as she threw an interspatial ring towards him .
Winking at him she said ," That ring has multiple pills that would help you in your Cultivation , If you want more just ask me."
Walking out of the room towards the Holy Orchid Library he wanted to find out about the Artic Cold Disease out of curiosity , what did Glory City suggest was the cure for this aliment ?
It didn't take him long to find the school library. It was a large and decorative three story building with well maintained bushes surrounding the exterior walls. Walking into the entrance , it was obvious this place housed quite a large collection of books, tomes, and scrolls. The layout was spacious with little alcoves walled off by tall bookcases. It's well lit, and there's a soft smell of parchment in the air.
A roughly cleared throat draws my attention away from the view and to a middle-aged man standing behind a finely carved desk.
I decide to take the intuitive, "Excuse me sir, but could you please help me in finding a book about the Artic Cold Disease ?"
The middle aged man indifferently looked at him and then grabbed a book from the shelves and handed it to him .
Lin Lingtian began reading the book
" The Artic Cold Disease ... Treatment of Artic Cold Disease is the Consumption of medicine made from combining Golden Striped Grass with Imperial Sky Grass for ten days.
Rest well and stop cultivating at night until completely cured.
Massages on bruised Areas by the Daoyin Technique ."
After reading about the Artic Cold Disease and the Daoyin Technique , he couldn't help but smile , this truly was a different world .
Grabbing a few more books on Alchemy , Basics of Inscription Array , Meridians , Soul Force Lin Lingtian began to immerse himself in this Alien Like Word as each word he read and memorized left him more thirsty for knowledge .

[ Holy Orchid Institute : Central Gate ]
Walking outside he found multiple stalls outside of the Holy Orchid Institute , Lin Lingtian thought about what should he do ?
The War God Technique was an overbearing technique but the most gain one could get from it was during times of battle .
The War God Technique was different as unlike other technique which absorbed soul force and causes the user to advance in the ranks while it allowed the user to absorb large amounts of soul force but advancing in ranks of cultivation only happened during battle .
He had the [ War God Technique's chant ] status along with the [ Wood Yin Infusion ] which would logically cause him to become a 2 Star Bronze rank during his class but it didn't because he was not in battle . But in exchange for that his meridians are constantly being stressed out and his soul force is rising in quality , increasing the strength and quality of his foundation . While he was still a 1 star Bronze rank , the quality and strength of his soul force was equal to that of a 2 Star or even a 3 star bronze rank .
Walking through the stalls , Lin Lingtian used the [ Appraisal] on everything he saw .
Nothing had yet caught his eye .
The War God Technique also had the user form his core or his second heart before they achieve silver rank .
The core or second heart for him should be created using the blood of a demon beasts with the yin-wood attribute .
The War God Technique : Army of the Underworld had the information on what demon beasts would be perfect for him cultivating a second heart or core .
The Snow Sakura Demon Beasts .
The Corpse Woodland Elder .
The Artic Yin Lotus Fairy .
.
.
.
.
Those were some of the demon beasts that were perfect for creating his second core which will form the base of his army .
The Second Heart or core is his connection to his army .
The War God Technique when he achieves Silver rank would allow him to battle the souls of demon beasts and other living things on the astral plane . He had to battle them and make them submit to him . With that a connection will form between the souls that will form his army with his second heart .
The second heart will slowly form into his version of the demon spirit .Taking the talents and innate abilities of members of his army to form into his version of the Demon Spirit , creating the most ideal Demon Spirit for him .
That was just the first ability granted by the War God Technique . He was definitely looking forward to uncovering all the other abilities .
Lin Lingtian looked at Nie Li as he thought ,' So what is our resident time traveller doing ? '
According to the War God Technique's soul force manipulation , soul force filled his ear drums . His hearing began to enhance to superhuman level .
[ Soul Force enhancing your hearing ]
[ Hearing Enhancement : 1000% increase in hearing and sound perception ] [ Duration : 1 hour ] ( - + )
Pushing the plus button until duration became infinite .
Lin Lingtian stopped flowing soul force as his hearing was enhanced by the status.
"Du Ze, we'll go buy Black Pool Grass," Nie Li said.
"What are you planning to do?" Du Ze curiously asked.
Nie Li laughed mysteriously, "Black Pool Grass has a certain paralysis effect, but the efficiency is very low. It is generally used to smear on wounds to relieve some pain. As for Zoysia grass, it Is a very common weed so no one hasas found a use for them yet. However, if it's used with a fusing agent and Black Pool Grass, it can greatly strengthen the paralysis effect of the Black Pool Grass."
Du Ze was stunned for a moment and then
asked, "How strong is the paralysis effect?"
Nie Li laughed and said, "It doesn't have much effect on ordinary demon beasts. The effect is worse than a low-grade paralyzing agent. But did you know that the Horned Sheep never eats Zoysia Grass?"
"Horned Sheep?" repeated Du Ze and went silent for a moment. As if he vaguely guessed something, his eyes lit up, "Nie Li, would you happen to be an alchemist?"
"An alchemist?" Nie Li thought awhile and laughed, "I guess so."
Nie Li started mixing the grasses and fusing agents, getting a total of six full bottles of the drug.
Holy Orchid Institute Training Grounds
The training grounds were established by the Legend rank Demon Spiritualist Lord Ye Mo and the principal of the school, who was a Black Gold rank Demon Spiritualist. The training grounds were surrounded by towering walls. Every year, experts in Glory City would capture some low level demon beasts and place them into the training grounds. Any Holy Orchid Institute student who is below Silver rank, can enter the grounds. Students can hunt the demon beasts inside and obtain fur, demon crystals, and various other beast materials from them and dispose of them freely at their own choice. Some of the poorer students can hunt inside the training ground to help with their family's financial situation.
Nie Li's group of three haven't even reached 1-star Bronze rank, yet. So the place that they are going to is the training grounds safest area. There are only Horned Sheeps in that area. Although Horned Sheeps are very aggressive in nature, they are still herbivores. Therefore, their attacks would only cause serious injuries. So they can be considered safe.
Nie Li's group of three entered the training grounds after they had their identities verified by the guards at the entrance.
[ Training Grounds Apprenticeship Area ]
Within the sparse trees, there would be patches of grass fields with Horned Sheep slowly pacing them. Their eyes were red. Occasionally, they would prick up their ears to listen. Once an outsider enters their territory, they would mercilessly attack him.
( A.N : This is the Horned Demon sheep )
Suddenly, an abnormal sound was heard. The Horned Sheep closest to Nie Li's group let out a growl and rushed towards the direction of the abnormal sound.
"That Nie Li, he actually told me to be the bait.
Simply outrageous!" Lu Piao looking at the
Horned Sheep that was charging towards him.
This scared the crap out of him, making him
stumble as he ran backwards.
Meanwhile, Du Ze and Nie Li were hiding in
the bush. They were holding crossbows in
their hands.
"My goodness! This Horned Sheep is so scary!
Shoot, shoot it" Lu Piao yelled. When he saw
the Horned Sheep getting closer, he ran nonstop .
"This Lu Piao, didn't we agree to have him stay still and not move? The Horned Sheep would have surely fallen for the trap. However, once he ran, the sheep deviated from the trap's direction," Nie Li frowned. The trap is actually a small, two finger pit and once the Horned sheep carelessly stepped into the trap, it would have definitely fractured its leg. Firing bolts at it, once that happened, would have caused the result to be much better.
Seeing Lu Piao run in a panic, Du Ze also got
nervous and continuously pulled the trigger at the sheep. *shu shu shu* Three crossbow bolts shot out from the crossbow.
That Horned Sheep is a demon-ized creature. it hasn't been injured so the reaction of the Horned Sheep is extremely fast. When it sensed the three bolts that were being shot at its direction, with its fast reflexes, it immediately made a few jumps and caused the three crossbow bolts to graze passed the sheep, hence, dodging the bolt.
"What? Missed ?! "
Lu Piao was perplexed as the Horned Sheep's horn closed in on him. Thinking that Nie Li and Du Ze actually made this kind of mistake; he almost bursted into tears in his heart. He began to think that he made a mistake in making friends. If the sharp horn reaches him, it will instantly be able to make his ass flowering.
When he saw the Horned Sheep dodge the crossbow bolts, and continued its charge at Lu Piao, made Du Ze's hands covered in sweat. If he tried to load another bolt onto the crossbow, he would be too late. He could imagine the scene of Lu Piao's butt being stabbed by the Horned Sheep's horn in his head.
"Nie Li, what should we do…." Du Ze immediately went silent after speaking halfway. He was afraid to disturb Nie Li.
Nie Li half squatted. His left arm was straightened with the crossbow over his left arm. His right hand was clenching the trigger. His eyes were glued to the sight and the crossbow was so stable it was as though it was placed onto a holder.
Du Ze had an indescribable feeling. Nie Li had yet to fire a bolt, but Du Ze had a feeling that the bolt will surely hit the Horned Sheep. Nie Li, at this moment, was like a cheetah crouching in the bushes, waiting for his prey. He was releasing an awe-inspiring aura.
Nie Li pulled the trigger and a crossbow bolt was unleashed. The bolt that left turned into a silvery light and gracefully flew quickly. The angle that Nie Li targeted was in the blind spot of the Horned Sheep's sight.
"It hit!"
Seeing the bolt fly passed, Du Ze's heart was surprised. Nie Li gave him a weird feeling. It was as though he was a veteran shooter.
The Horned Sheep didn't manage to dodge in time.
Plop!
The bolt hit the back leg of the horned sheep.
Thud!
The horned sheep fell onto the ground wailing, landed in front of Lu Piao and raised dust all around it.
Lu Piao was gasping for air. He was extremely nervous. When he saw the Horned Sheep wailing nonstop, couldn't help thinking, 'My god, that was too exciting! My goodness, my butt was spared.'
Lin Lingtian a few meter away behind the tree heard a cry of the Demon Horned Sheep .
Opening his eyes as he saw a Demon Horned Sheep charging at him .
A normal human from Earth would have panicked but Lin Lingtian was a practitioner of the War God Technique which gave him multiple benefits in the heat of battle .

[ War God Technique level 2 ]
[ War God's Battle Instincts : 300% increase in Weapon Mastery , Spacial Awareness , Hand to Hand Combat , Fear Nullification ] [ Duration : 1 hours ] ( - + )
Lin Lingtian didn't felt fear but an excitement for battle which quickly went away as he saw the Demon Horned Sheep charging at him in slow motion .
Lin Lingtian sighed as he kicked the Demon horned Sheep charging at him like a soccer ball .
His kick the moment it touched the head of the beast met little to no resistance as the headless corpse of the Demon beast hit the ground beside him .
Lin Lingtian who had the [ War God Technique's Chant ] status along with [ Wood Yin infusion ] status as he gains 30 soul force points in under a hour .
10 hours had gone bye from when he got the War God Technique which theoretically who have accumulated 300 soul force points meaning due to the War God Technique , Lin Lingtian's power was equal to that of a 3 star bronze rank .
A purple aura erupted from Lin Lingtian's body .
