Cultivation System: Stronger with Age

Teeth, leg bones, hip bones, including the skull, had all undergone Metamorphosis... If someone were to cut open his flesh right now, they would be astonished to find that every one of his bones was as lustrous as jade and incredibly solid!

Lin Xuankong's eyes filled with joy. I've finally reached the Late Stage of the Fourth Layer!

Back then, Chief Steward Jiang Yuran, Grand Chief Steward Gao Yunchao, and Wu Liangye were all at this Realm too! In the entire Yin Talisman Sect, only a few people are at a higher Realm than me now. As for overall combat power... I haven't fought them yet, so I'll assume they're stronger for now!

Besides, his various Cultivation Techniques were rapidly improving as well. The Blood Eating Technique had reached Entering the Hall level.

Nowadays, during a single meal, he could devour over a thousand pounds of Demon Flesh without any negative effects on his digestion!

His Perfect Qi Blood was approaching its limit of 500,000 points. To increase the Qi Blood limit again... I'll probably have to wait until I'm seventy! Of course, the current nearly 500,000 points of Perfect Qi Blood already represented an absolutely terrifying reserve.

Such an amount of Perfection Level Qi Blood, when converted to Transcendent Qi Blood, was roughly equivalent to two to three million points—equal to the Qi Blood replenished by one hundred thousand servings of Nine Revolutions Qi Replenishing Soup!

The entire Yin Talisman Sect, with its thousands of disciples, consumed far less than this daily. It would take all of them together many days to deplete such a terrifying amount of Qi Blood!

The most delightful development was that both the Fierce Tiger Roar Bone Technique and the Blood-Burning Secret Technique had advanced in Realm once again, substantially increasing their Explosive Power multiplier.

Now, once I erupt, my speed and Explosive Power will surely be even more formidable!

If the current me, wearing the thirty thousand pounds of Exorcism Equipment, were to face that Mysterious Female Cultivator again, even if she only wore a light white robe, she definitely couldn't surpass my speed. Even without using my other numerous trump cards, I could absolutely knock her down instantly and beat her mercilessly!

While Lin Xuankong was pondering, Lin Jiao suddenly ran out from the neighboring room, his clothes disarrayed.

"Look quickly! The color of the Demon-Suppressing Array in the sky has changed from red to green! We can leave the valley! This is truly great news, exceptionally good news! Hahaha!"

From the stone house on the right, Zhao Yufei walked out, looking energetic. For the past two days, in the presence of her fellow sect members like Nalan Yunzhu, she had felt a bit shy about staying in the same stone house as Lin Xuankong. So, she had stayed separately for a few days and, as a result, seemed noticeably more spirited.

"It's time to return to Great Marsh Prefecture!" Zhao Yufei said, gazing at Lin Xuankong with a complicated expression.

The many events during the trip to Demon-Suppressing Valley had far exceeded my expectations... This journey to Demon-Suppressing Valley has subtly altered my destiny, leading me down a path I never imagined. Moreover, I firmly believe that not only has my fate changed because of Lin Xuankong, but in the future, the destinies of the entire Yin Talisman Sect, Great Marsh Prefecture, and even the wider world—countless lives—might be transformed because of him! The journey to Demon-Suppressing Valley was merely the beginning!

...

「Yin Talisman Sect Hall.」

Four Grand Chief Stewards, along with Ma Jiang and other Stewards, all wore puzzled expressions. Each of them carefully examined Zhao Yufei, Lin Xuankong, and Hu Shuo, who were seated in the lower positions.

Jiang Yuran, dressed in a moon-white long robe, frowned and asked, "Because that Mysterious Female Cultivator killed most of the Tier Three Demons in Demon-Suppressing Valley, everyone else returned safely, apart from Steward Xu Bei? And that Mysterious Female Cultivator was so powerful that even Chu Qing couldn't last ten breaths against her?"

"Later, another mysterious Martial Cultivator appeared, defeated that Mysterious Female Cultivator, and received the Marsh Python Demon Pearl as a reward?"

Hu Shuo glanced at Lin Xuankong awkwardly before looking up and saying, "That's roughly how it went. We heard it from others, as we didn't leave Juefeng Mountain most of the time."

These words were true. He only knew that Lin Xuankong had instantly killed those Tier Three Marsh Pythons. As for Lin Xuankong's subsequent, more ferocious feats, he had indeed heard about them from others.

Unfortunately, he had promised Lin Xuankong to keep it confidential, so he couldn't reveal the matter of killing the Tier Three Marsh Pythons... This Elder Steward felt as if he had swallowed twenty-five little mice, their claws tearing at his insides!

"Liy Changming was defeated, Chu Qing lost, and even the Mysterious Female Cultivator capable of commanding Ding Rui and the Holy Dragon Association was defeated... Who exactly was the one who defeated *that* Mysterious Female Cultivator?"

Jiang Yuran's bright eyes were filled with amazement. She was extremely familiar with the Martial Cultivators of Great Marsh and knew how formidable Liy Changming and Chu Qing were, which was why she was so astonished.

Grand Chief Steward Wu Liangye and Grand Chief Steward Gao Yunchao also exchanged surprised glances.

Grand Chief Steward Wu Liangye sighed, "Liy Changming is a distinguished figure among the younger generation of Great Marsh Prefecture. Even I would struggle to defeat him!"

"If I were to go up against Chu Qing, with his enigmatic Spiritual Snake Technique and the infamous White Snake Venom on his weapon... I doubt I would last ten moves against him!"

"The Mysterious Female Cultivator who defeated Chu Qing within a few breaths, and the mysterious Martial Cultivator who defeated *her*—who on earth could they be?"
