C122 Entering the Imperial City
He touched his chin and said to himself, "It's not good to be handsome. As long as I do something small, it will attract so much attention. I am really troubled!"
Yang Jian was speechless.
Huge Spirit God was speechless.
They didn't hear anything!
Lin Xiao curled his lips when he saw Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God looking in front of him with serious expressions. He said, "Alright, I need to cultivate during this period of time. Don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes."
Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God nodded.
Lin Xiao entered the secret chamber in County Governor Mansion and started to concentrate on cultivating the Eight Nine Profound Arts.
It was very difficult to cultivate the Eight Nine Profound Arts, not only because it was difficult to collect materials, but also because the cultivation technique required a great amount of perseverance to succeed.
After all, he needed to absorb the Iron Essence into his body and then use his flesh and blood body to carry the Iron Essence. It was the same as forcefully stuffing a piece of metal into his cells. One could imagine the pain.
But Lin Xiao was not afraid!
If he wanted to obtain a stronger strength, he would have to endure even more pain.
Lin Xiao clenched his fists tightly, crazily absorbing the Iron Essence Qi. Streams of dark air flowed through his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth into his body.
The conflict between the Iron Essence and the cells caused Lin Xiao to feel incomparable pain. He couldn't help but let out a roar.
However, he still gritted his teeth and persisted. After half a month, Lin Xiao finally refined all of these Iron Essence Qis.
The iron ore deposit beside him had already turned into sand and stone.
Lin Xiao's body, on the other hand, had a metallic texture. If someone knocked on his body, they could even hear the sound of metal.
Lin Xiao exhaled a breath of air. Crisp sounds like fried beans erupted from all over his body. The color of his skin instantly returned to the color of flesh.
He had finally completed the first layer of the Eight Nine Profound Arts!
However, he still didn't know the power of this first layer.
With great curiosity, Lin Xiao heavily punched the wall, leaving a deep fist mark on it.
"This..."
Seeing the fist mark in front of him, Lin Xiao showed a surprised look.
When he punched just now, he did not use any Dao Arts. He only relied on the strength of his physical body, but he still smashed a mark on the specially made wall.
One should know that even if a Spirit Separating Stage Peak didn't use the Dao Art, they wouldn't be able to leave a mark on the wall.
His physical strength had already surpassed the Spirit Separating Stage!
Currently, Lin Xiao had only cultivated to the first layer. If he continued to cultivate, Lin Xiao wouldn't dare to imagine how terrifying his physical strength would be.
If possible, Lin Xiao really wanted to cultivate to the third layer in one go.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
The Genius Contest, which was held once every sixty years in Beiwu Empire, was about to begin!
If Lin Xiao still didn't set off for Imperial City, He might not make it in time. Lin Xiao didn't want to miss out on the Genius Contest.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao walked out of the secret chamber.
"Master, you have finally come out!"
Seeing Lin Xiao coming out, Yang Jian immediately greeted him.
During this period of time, Yang Jian had been guarding the secret chamber's door 24 / 7. Although he knew that there would be no danger in County Governor Mansion, he had still been guarding here.
When Lin Xiao saw Yang Jian, he also revealed a satisfied expression. "You have worked hard."
"Protecting you is my duty."
Yang Jian revealed a smile and said respectfully.
Lin Xiao nodded and asked Yang Jian to find his other subordinates. He instructed them. "Yang Jian, Huge Spirit God, and I are going to the Imperial City to participate in the Genius Contest. Help me guard the Jiangcuo County and Guang'an County, and wait for my successful return!"
"Yes."
The other subordinates nodded their heads one after another. Da Ji and Yunshan, on the other hand, wanted to say something but stopped themselves.
Da Ji, Yunshan and Lin Xiao had not reunited for long and were about to be separated again. The two of them could not bear to part with Lin Xiao, but they could not stop him.
As for Mu Qing, she didn't care about Lin Xiao leaving.
As the fourth member of the Elites Rank, she also had the invitation letter from the Genius Contest, so she could enter the Imperial City with Lin Xiao.
After comforting Da Ji and Yunshan, Lin Xiao brought Mu Qing, Yang Jian, and Huge Spirit God out of the Guang'an County and headed to the Imperial City.
Huge Spirit God transformed into a giant and carried Lin Xiao and Mu Qing on his shoulders. He jumped up, and Yang Jian also transformed into a white rainbow and followed behind Huge Spirit God.
With Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God's help, it only took Lin Xiao and the others three days to cross half of Beiwu Empire and arrive at the Imperial City of Beiwu Empire.
The Genius Contest was about to begin, and the Imperial City was bustling with noise and excitement. There was a long line of people lining up at the entrance of the Imperial City. Because the Genius Contest was very famous, many people wanted to see the Genius Contest.
Lin Xiao and the others landed on the ground and lined up obediently.
Unknowingly, two hours had passed. Just as Lin Xiao and the others were about to reach the front of the line, a playboy cut in line as if there was no one else around.
The few people standing in front of Lin Xiao were all ordinary people. They entered Imperial City just to watch the show. When they found out that this playboy was very rich, even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to criticize him. Their actions made this playboy very satisfied.
But just as he was feeling proud, a hand grabbed his collar. "I hope you can line up at the back!"
"Do you know who I am? I am the son of City Lord of Tianyang City. How dare you ask me to line up with you!" The playboy's collar was grabbed by Lin Xiao. His expression was very discontented as he cursed fiercely.
"I don't care who you are. The queue is the rule here!"
Lin Xiao rolled his eyes at the playboy. He did not put Lin Xiao in his eyes at all. He used a little strength in his hand. "Do you want to get lost by yourself, or do you want me to make a move?"
"You are courting death!"
Hearing this, the playboy's expression changed.
He was the son of City Lord. Usually, in Tianyang City, anyone who saw him would be respectful to him. However, this man in front of him had embarrassed him in front of so many people.
His behavior was extremely detestable!
Without even thinking, this playboy directly raised his hand. A green light circulated on his hand, and a burst of energy rushed towards Lin Xiao.
Although he was a playboy, the cultivation was still not bad. It had already reached the Divinity level 6. Usually, in the Tianyang City, there were very few opponents.
Although the man in front of him had kept his cultivation, he shouldn't be too strong.
However, he never expected that Lin Xiao would easily break his attack and slap his face. With a cold expression, he said, "Since you are rude to me, I will slap you in the face!"
Slap?
This man actually slapped him!
playboy was completely dumbfounded. He covered his face and stared at Lin Xiao for a long time before he finally reacted. He shouted in disbelief: "You actually dare to hit me!"
