Soul Devouring Sword Master

After leaving the Li family, Lin Xiao went to Lingdan Pavilion to buy some materials, and then went to Wenjian Academy.

Along the way, Lin Xiao felt relaxed all over, and his mood had never been so comfortable.

Perhaps, it was because of the destruction of the Dugu family that he no longer had to worry about it all day long, always guarding against the murderous intentions of the Dugu family.

However, Lin Xiao knew very well that even if the Dugu family no longer threatened him, he could not take it lightly because there was still a Nangong family.

Among the eight major families, the Nangong family ranks first. Its overall power is ten times that of the Dugu family. It is also one of the three major forces in the Star Empire.

The three major forces of the Star Empire are Wenjian Academy, Lingdan Pavilion, and the royal family. Although the royal family's surname is Murong, they are actually controlled by the Nangong family and are just puppets.

Therefore, the actual three major forces are the royal family and the Nangong family.

Dealing with the Nangong family is much more difficult than the Dugu family. What Lin Xiao has to do now is to seize the time to improve his cultivation and strive to advance to the top ten in the one-month competition for pride.

After returning to the academy, Lin Xiao locked himself in a bamboo building and practiced in seclusion.

First, Lin Xiao spread out the purchased materials and the three figs, refining and blending them according to the requirements of the Spirit Swallowing Art.

One day later, the third level of Spirit Swallowing Technique was completed.

After the Spirit-Swallowing Technique reached the third level, the spiritual energy in the Qi Mansion changed from pale gold to pure gold, and the power to swallow the earth's spiritual energy became three times stronger.

After that, he started practicing crazily.

With the help of the Spirit Swallowing Art, Lin Xiao's cultivation level improved rapidly.

Half a month later, the sixth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm was achieved.

Of course, Lin Xiao was not focused on improving his cultivation, and he never fell behind on the skills.

He has been practicing and studying the Wind and Thunder Palm, Sword Qi Storm, Qi Sword Finger, and the Immortal Golden Body Technique, and every time he has lived a very fulfilling life.

Before I knew it, there were only three days left before the battle for the pride list.

At this time, Lin Xiao walked out of the bamboo building, and his aura was much stronger than before.

Today, he has reached the late sixth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Although he has not reached the third level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, his actual spiritual energy burst and concentration are comparable to the eighth level of the ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm.

Coupled with his understanding of potential and the blessing of many techniques, his true combat power is definitely comparable to the average ninth level peak of the Spiritual Transformation Realm.

It is worth mentioning that Lin Xiao couldn't open the ring left by Lin Xiao's father for a while, as if it was bound by some kind of restriction. He tried several times without success, which gave him a headache. .

"Boss, you are out of seclusion."

Lin Xiao was walking casually when a voice suddenly came from behind.

Chen Fan ran to Lin Xiao and opened his arms as if to show off, "Look, boss, I am much thinner than before."

"Well, I'm a little thinner than before."

Lin Xiao nodded, but even so, Chen Fan's body shape is still a bit fatter. But before, it was all fat and puffy, but now he feels more muscular.

It seems that this guy has worked hard to lose weight.

"Boss, then I can follow you from now on."

"Can,"

Lin Xiao nodded. It was obvious that this guy really wanted to mess with him. "However, let me declare first, don't use my name to cause trouble everywhere. In that case, I will not care about you."

"Of course,"

Chen Fan chuckled and then said, "Boss, you are going to participate in the pride list. I have prepared things a long time ago. Let's go to the Imperial City together."

"Well, let's go."

After Lin Xiao and the others left Wenjian Academy, they came to a transportation union and planned to rent a griffon.

However, what they didn't expect was that the union was so crowded that they couldn't squeeze in.

Fortunately, Chen Fan was smart and knew how to get in through the back door, and he managed to get a griffin by buying connections.

Otherwise, it might not be their turn even if they wait.

The two sat on the griffin and flew to the imperial city.

Around them, there were thousands of griffons rising into the sky, heading towards the imperial city just like them.

After all, the Pride List is a grand event held once every three years in the Star Empire. It gathers the evil talents of the entire empire. At that time, all the major forces will go, and many big names who are not seen on weekdays will also show up. Naturally, many people want to go. Look, even if it’s not for competition.

On the many griffons, some talented boys and girls were sitting or standing, all with burning eyes, looking in the direction of the imperial city, eager to show off their skills on the pride list and become famous in one fell swoop.

Thousands of gryphons flew together in the sky, fluttering their wings and the wind roared, the scene was extremely spectacular.

In this dense group of griffins, Lin Xiao sat cross-legged quietly, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

Beside him, Chen Fan took out two chicken legs at some point, one in each hand, and ate them with big mouthfuls, his mouth full of oil.

"Boss, how about a chicken drumstick?"

"No, I'm not hungry."

"As for the meat skewers, I also have cherry blossoms here."

"No need, just eat."

"How about grilled fish?"

"..."

----

The gryphon was very fast, and soon after, Lin Xiao and the two arrived at the imperial city.

The Imperial City is the political center of the entire Star Empire and the most prosperous place.

Tens of thousands of griffons landed outside the imperial city at the same time.

According to the regulations of the Imperial City, those who are not powerful in the Mysterious Spirit Realm cannot fly over the Imperial City.

After getting off the griffon, Lin Xiao and Chen Fan entered the imperial city.

It must be said that the imperial city is indeed magnificent, with tall buildings standing in rows, magnificent and grand. The street at the main gate alone is dozens of feet wide, and people often pass by on powerful monsters, and there is a constant stream of traffic.

"Finally we have arrived at the imperial city."

Lin Xiao's expression moved slightly. If he had the chance, he would definitely find a way to contact Nangong Shi, and it would be best if he could find out some news about his father.

"Boss, let's find a place to rest."

Chen Fan said on the side.
