Chu Yunxi? A proposal?
Long Chen was stunned. “Isn’t Chu Yunxi the 18-year-old genius? He’s proposing to Liu Lan, instead of Liu Ling?”
Longchen thought Liu Yuan had misspoken.
“Yes, it’s Liu Lan. Everyone knows Yunxi has been harbouring a crush on Liu Lan for awhile now, but it’s normal for you not to know since you’ve only just joined the Lingwu family.”
“An 18-year-old crushing on Liu Lan… Interesting.”
Long Chen snickered, but at the thought of Liu Lan’s alluring beauty and her thrilling, mature aura, it was no wonder that anyone would be captivated by her. If Long Chen did not have Lingxi around, he might even be tempted.
“Sigh. Lan’er is probably going to marry into the Green Emperor Hall, but if Chu Yunxi enters the inner faction, Lan’er will definitely have a higher status as well.”
Liu Yuan sighed ruefully.
“This exceedingly alluring delicate flower is going to be offered up to a pig?” Long Chen scolded inside.
Seeing Long Chen so silent as if he had no interest in this, Liu Yuan immediately exclaimed, “Anyway, you should leave and refine that beast spirit.”
“Elder Yuan, what was it about teaming up with Chu Yunxi?” Long Chen did not forget about this.
“The inner faction selection is similar to that of the outer faction selection. There are two rounds, and the first is a compet.i.tion between teams of two. You and Chu Yunxi are members of the Green Faction and can be made into a team. As for more concrete details regarding the selection, I’ll tell you in detail sometime later. If I were to tell you now, I’m not certain if there are any changes to the rules.”
Long Chen nodded and bid Liu Yuan farewell, returning to his residence.
After reaching, Lingxi came out from the sword and seemed to be elated, wandering around everywhere, wrinkling her nose and humming little tunes.
“Little Xi, what’s got you so happy?”
“I’m not going to tell you! Hmph!”
Long Chen teased, “Could it be because beautiful Liu Lan is going to get married?”
Lingxi was astonished. “How did you know? Hmph, I’ve seen that stinking woman trying to get fresh with you. It’s about time she got married!”
“Hm…” Long Chen had long since made sense of Lingxi’s thought processes.
“Do you think I have a chance in the inner faction selection?” Long Chen sat in the bas.e.m.e.nt.
“Of course. Isn’t there still some time? You’re still at the Human Dan Realm, and merely at the bottom-most level in terms of cultivation. Cultivation works very quickly. By merely training a little here and there, I mentioned to break through to the Heaven Dan Realm.”
Lingxi’s tone of difference as she said this surprised Long Chen.
“When she was younger, she must definitely have been high above everyone else. How would she know how hard peasants like us have to work to achieve the same results…”
After refining the Spirit Gra.s.s, Lingxi’s energy was at its peak. She spent the day running everywhere in the residence, and Long Chen let her do as she liked.
As long as he had a bit of time, it would be used for cultivation.
“It’s about time to refine the blood of those two Giant Demonic Vicious Bears. If it’s in in my cosmos pouch for too long, its effects might decrease.”
There were still five days until that proposal thing Chu Yunxi was going to do. In those five days, n.o.body would bother Long Chen either, and he decided to completely refine the blood of these two beasts.
“Two level 4 profound grade demonic beasts filled with blood only allowed me to improve by a little. There’s still a huge distance to the Earth Dan Realm…”
Long Chen picked out the Spirit Congealing Bead with the Enchanted Purple Dragon inside. This was a treasure to all beast cultivators, but it was useless to Long Chen. He was a dragon cultivator, not a beast cultivator.
What he needed was the blood essence inheritance of an ancient dragon, and not a beast spirit…
“Regular beast cultivators probably would have completely refined this beast spirit by the start of the selection. If Old Liu doesn’t see that I’ve refined it, I wonder how he’s going to kill me. Ugh, I need to find a way to exchange it for a hundred thousand deity jades secretly.”
However, Long Chen could not think up anything in a short period, and so kept the beast spirit well and took out the Thunder Flame Crystals.
“I’ve used up almost all the Thunder Flame Crystals. My limit right now should be 30 of them, so in these five days, I’ll fuse with another 3 such that my Thunder Flame Physique can reach a higher level!”
A rank 1 Thunder Flame Physique would require fusion with 10 Thunder Flame Crystals, while for rank 2, he believed he was almost there. As long as he broke through a certain limit, he would definitely be able to obtain the rank 2 Thunder Flame Physique.
A rank 2 Thunder Flame Physique was comparable to a profound high-grade body tempering technique, and would definitely be very formidable!
Four days slowly pa.s.sed, and on the morning of the fifth day, Long Chen finally escaped from pain and suffering. While using Origin Reversion to heal himself, he was excited, “I’ve fused with a total of 30 Thunder Flame Crystals, and my body is now three times as powerful as when I had just fused with the first. However, it still has yet to become rank 2.”
Only after his body completely recovered under Origin Reversion did Long Chen stand up and wriggle his limbs.
“As my body becomes stronger, the effects of Origin Reversion decrease. If my body reaches the level of a high-grade profound technique, Origin Reversion will definitely weaken further.”
