Elder White sighed. “Ling Xiao, listen. Since the inner disciples are not allowed to intervene in the Outer Sect, they usually can’t compete with the outer disciples, but during the joint training, this rule doesn’t exist, and those punching bags of the Inner Sect would regard the disciples sent from the Outer Sect as buckets to vent their anger.”
“They want to treat me as a bucket to vent their anger? It depends on whether they have that ability.”
Ling Xiao smiled confidently.
“Good! This seat knows that you won’t have any problems! Go back and prepare. Tomorrow, take this seat’s ‘Stainless Token’ and Inner Sect’s ‘invitation letter,’ and go to the Inner Sect to participate in the joint training along with Jian Xing and Lin Feng.”
Stainless Celestial Worthy was very satisfied with Ling Xiao’s attitude.
How could the number one of the Outer Sect be without this kind of courage?
He also didn’t ask Ling Xiao to have a brilliant result in the Inner Sect’s joint training. As long as he didn’t lose to those low-ranked punching bags of the Inner Sect, it would be enough.
As for Jian Xing and Lin Feng, those two were the current number two and number three of the Outer Sect, and both were Half Great Masters.
Ling Xiao had seen Jian Xing before: he had smashed the other party’s arrogance with one finger in the Desperate Tower.
Later, he then lost to Zhao Zhi, but after Zhao Zhi was promoted to the Inner Sect, he returned to second place.
The other disciple was named Lin Feng and was already twenty-six years old. He had always remained practically unshaken in fourth place.
However, because others had been promoted in succession, he finally became the third of the Outer Sect.
Ling Xiao was not very familiar with these two, but their relationship was not bad.
After all, in the Outer Sect, almost all disciples had accepted Ling Xiao’s guidance. Those two were no exception.
Now, both of them were on the verge of a breakthrough. If they could achieve better results in this joint training, their promotion shouldn’t be an issue.
Naturally, almost all geniuses of the Inner Sect were their enemies. It could be estimated that basically everyone wanted to crush them so as to strengthen their self-confidence.
Ling Xiao didn’t know how many geniuses the Inner Sect had.
However, Lan Yu’er, Ming Tian, and Leng Hao were all heaven’s favorites. He believed that the number of people with similar talents wouldn’t be lacking.
Hei Suo, Zhao Zhi, and the others were slightly lacking, but even like that, they could definitely crush outer disciples like Jian Xing and Lin Feng.
The Inner Sect was definitely a place where heroes gathered.
Ling Xiao also wanted to take advantage of this occasion to learn more about these geniuses and make preparations for the ‘Moon Advent Festival Tower Climbing Ceremony’ later.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.
Although Ling Xiao was confident, he was not arrogant.
Only by knowing more about an opponent, would you ensure victory!
Leaving the Outer Main Hall, Ling Xiao entered the cultivation state again.
Since the sword soul clone had been successfully refined, it greatly increased his cultivation speed.
Now that he was about to participate in the Inner Sect’s joint training, he must continue to strengthen himself so as to not lose face after going to the Inner Sect.
Thinking about it, there should be many people waiting to trouble him in the Inner Sect.
By increasing his strength by one point, the probability of losing face would also decrease by one point.
It was still morning when he left the Outer Main Hall.
When Ling Xiao opened his eyes from cultivation, it was already midnight.
Breakthrough!
He had broken through from Peak Rank One Transcendent Realm to Initial Rank Two Transcendent Realm. This process was simply too easy.
It was so easy that even he couldn’t believe it.
This was probably all due to his foundation being well laid.
When in the Martial Vein Realm, he had raised all three of his potentials to the extreme limits of the Martial Vein Realm. After his breakthrough, the first three stages, Marrow Cleansing, Convert Blood, and Open Aperture, had already been completed.
Therefore, his rapid progress was, in fact, reasonable.
At this moment, he had already left Zhao Zhi, Zhao Ci, Dai Yuling, and the others far behind.
It could be estimated that even peerless geniuses like Ming Tian and Leng Hao weren’t as good as him.
One should know that ordinary martial artists might never reach Rank Two Transcendent Realm from Rank One Transcendent Realm.
Even geniuses with immortal-grade treasured bodies needed several months to breakthrough.
A divine-grade treasure body might need less time, but it would not be shorter than a month.
However, Ling Xiao’s situation was too special. It took him only a few days to reach Rank Two Transcendent Realm from Rank One.
After he broke through to Initial Rank Two Transcendent Realm, he left consolidating his cultivation base to one of the sword soul clones.
The other sword soul clone was responsible for cultivating various entry gold-grade martial arts, which would be used to upgrade <Cloud Dragon Divine Walk> and <Nine Demon Gods Art>.
Now that he had reached Rank Two Transcendent Realm, <Cloud Dragon Divine Walk> obviously couldn’t keep up with his cultivation base. It needed an upgrade.
<Nine Demon Gods Art> was the same.
In any case, he had obtained many entry gold-grade martial arts from the Outer Moonlight Tower of the Moonlight Sect, Wan Ben’s Governor Residence, and those disciples of the Sword King Sect.
He had enough materials to upgrade these two magical techniques.
The movement technique was a necessity and couldn’t be delayed at all.
As for his main body, he began to sort out all his powers——
<Heavenly Dragon Golden Body>: A superior gold-grade martial art at the initial fifth layer. By thoroughly remolding himself and possessing complete Heavenly Dragon Blood, he could be reborn from a drop of blood!
However, this didn’t mean that he was invincible. After all, if an absolute power directly bombarded him into fine powder, he couldn’t even think about being reborn from a drop of blood.
However, at least within the Transcendent Realm, if someone wanted to kill him, it would truly not be easy.
Solely relying on his physical strength, he could suppress martial artists below Rank One Transcendent Realm without even using true essence.
<Twelve Golden Lotuses Formula>: A rare gold-grade martial art but suspected to be a peak gold-grade martial art or higher. At present, it is at the third layer, grasping the power of three celestial phenomena, wind, thunder and rain, that can be freely used with martial skills.
So far, within the Transcendent Realm, very few martial artists had ever been able to cultivate <Twelve Golden Lotuses Formula> to the third layer.
<Snow Lotus Sword Art>: A rare gold-grade martial art, of which he had completely mastered the first four of five styles. His comprehension of the fifth style, ‘Ice Storm’, was at about 60%.
The fifth style was a cumulative move. Its might approached the sum of the first four styles. Once used, it would be very terrifying.
If combined with <Twelve Golden Lotuses Formula>, it would be even more terrifying.
<Divine Prison King Fist>: An entry gold-grade martial art, which he had already cultivated to the perfection realm and was still in the process of comprehending.
Ling Xiao’s goal was to cultivate it to the sublimity realm. Like that, the might of this fist technique wouldn’t lose to rare gold-grade martial arts.
<Bronze Sweep Sword Controlling Technique>: At the perfection realm. He could use Big Dipper Sword Formation to trap and kill opponents or launch a surprise attack.
<Shadow Transformation Sword Art>: A peak gold-grade martial art with two phases. He had to consolidate thirteen sword soul clones in the first phase.
At present, there were only two sword soul clones, which was just the start.
