156: Chapter 155: Target, Wenxue Sect!

Lin Xuan followed the method and purified the remaining few spiritual medicines.

Several groups of crystal-clear liquid floated midair, emitting a fragrance of herbs.

“Next is the fusion,” Lord of Wine said, and then he handed Lin Xuan an engraving.

This was a relatively complex engraving, about two to three times harder than the purification engraving.

Concentrating, Lin Xuan mobilized his soul power with all his might and, after failing once, finally succeeded in drawing the Fusion Rune.

The luminous groups of liquid were drawn by him, slowly converging, and then fusing.

This process was very slow and consumed a great deal of soul power.

Beads of sweat appeared on Lin Xuan’s forehead, his face slightly pale, but his eyes shone brightly.

At last, the liquids successfully converged.

“Finally, it is time to refine,” Lord of Wine said slowly.

An engraving was drawn by Lin Xuan, and the fist-sized liquid tumbled, with impurities being squeezed out again…

The air gradually filled with a strange fragrance, becoming ever more intense.

Lin Xuan took out a wine jug, poured the spiritual liquid in the air into it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

This was his first time refining, his technique was far from adept, and his soul power and spiritual power had been greatly depleted, leaving him extremely tired.

Lord of Wine rarely smiled, “For a first attempt at successful refining, your talent is fairly good.”

Lin Xuan took a sip from the wine jug and let out a bitter smile.

Compared to what Lord of Wine had refined, it was far too inferior!

“It seems I need more practice,” Lin Xuan put the wine jug aside and began to meditate to recover.

For the whole day, he practiced in the house.

During this time, Tong Lan came once, found she couldn’t enter the room, and then left.

The next day, Lin Xuan went out, planning to say goodbye to the Tong Family.

He was headed for Snow State.

With his speed, plus the interim cultivation and other matters, it would take about a month to arrive.

Calculating the days, now was the perfect time to leave.

He found Tong Lan to bid farewell.

“Brother Lin, I will hold your kindness in my heart.

Should you ever need anything, just ask,” Tong Lan said earnestly.

Lin Xuan waved his hand and then left the Tong Family.

He wandered around the city once more, bought some items, and then left the city.

Holding a map of Xia Country, Lin Xuan checked his direction and began his arduous journey.

According to his plan, most of it would be through mountain roads, which would allow him to hunt some demon beasts and search for spiritual medicines.

He spent most of the time cultivating, even while traveling.

During this period, he killed quite a few demon beasts, and was also hunted by demon beasts.

A fifth-rank demon wolf chased him for four to five days and nearly ate him.

In the end, Lin Xuan escaped.

At night, by a small river.

Lin Xuan lit a fire, roasted two wild beasts, and prepared to have a feast.

Suddenly, that heart-throbbing feeling appeared again as if a pair of eyes were staring at him from the darkness.

Lin Xuan’s brow furrowed tight; it seemed he had truly been targeted.

“Kid, use thunder.

His body is full of yin evil qi, scared of yang and the firm,” Lord of Wine reminded him via telepathy.

Lin Xuan planted the longsword by his side, then his body sparked with golden arcs of electricity, crackling loudly.

Indeed, the mysterious green-haired man did not approach but stared at Lin Xuan from a distance.

However, the danger had not been eliminated.

Lin Xuan had to maintain the thunder and lightning across his body to deter the green-haired man.

As dawn broke, the eerie green-haired man disappeared into the mountains.

Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief, his face a bit pale.

Releasing thunder for the entire night, even with his substantial spiritual power, he had almost collapsed.

Fortunately, he had obtained quite a lot of Spiritual Wine in the Blood-colored Heavenly Palace.

He drank a cup and his Spiritual Power recovered quickly.

He couldn’t act alone anymore, Lin Xuan felt heavy-hearted.

Having entered Snow State, the environment had drastically changed, the cold Yin energy was strong, and the green-haired man was likely to make a move.

He had to find a reliance to deter the green-haired man.

The border town of Qing Province was just ahead, he decided to check it out first.

Lin Xuan put away the map and dashed towards the distance…

Zhen Ancient City, the border town of Qing Province, close to Snow State.

The climate here was vastly different from the central part of Qing Province; it had become extremely cold.

The ground was covered in snow, and snowflakes drifted in the air; passersby all wore thick beast skin coats.

Lin Xuan, thinly clothed, walked through the town, drawing some sidelong glances.

Rarely did one see someone dress like him; even the Martial Artists wore beast skin coats.

Not wanting to draw attention, he walked into a nearby shop.

“Dear guest, please come in!”

The shop assistant greeted Lin Xuan with a welcoming smile.

Seeing Lin Xuan dressed so lightly, he knew business was at hand.

“Dear guest, our shop’s clothes are famous throughout the town!

Even Martial Artists from Snow State come to buy!”

Looking at you, you must be heading to Snow State.”

“Let me tell you, Snow State is too cold, simply not fit for living!”

“I’ll find you a thick coat, it will keep you absolutely warm!”

The shop assistant chattered incessantly.

“How do you know I am going to Snow State?” Lin Xuan asked with a smile.

“Everybody knows that Wenxue Sect in Snow State has become a Third-Grade Sect.”

“All the Martial Artists are heading there, and you, guest, at first glance seem to be a person of profound martial ability, you must be going there too!”

Lin Xuan smiled and pointed at a snow-white bear skin coat, “I’ll take this one.”

“Dear guest, you really have a good eye!” the shop assistant beamed, “This coat is made from the skin of a Fourth-stage White Demon Bear, it is guaranteed to keep you warm!”

“Moreover, it also offers some defensive power.”

“Fourth-stage Demon Beast!” Lin Xuan was surprised; no wonder he could feel a heavy aura from it.

“Thirty thousand low-grade spiritual stones.” The shop assistant said with a smile.

Lin Xuan was not surprised; the skin of a Fourth-stage Demon Beast was indeed expensive.

This white bear coat had traces of faint Demon Energy on it, it obviously wasn’t processed properly, the shopkeeper must have known, so it was only sold for thirty thousand low-grade spiritual stones.

If it were in normal conditions, it should be worth fifty thousand spiritual stones.

After paying the spiritual stones, Lin Xuan put on the white bear coat and then left.

Indeed, after putting it on, it was much warmer, and the skin of a Fourth-stage Demon Beast, ordinary Spirit Sea Third Realm Martial Artists would find it hard to damage.

However, this coat had some faint Demon Energy on it; if a Martial Artist wore it for long, it could potentially harm the body.

But Lin Xuan had a way to remove the Demon Energy.

Golden arcs surged on his body, enveloping the entire coat as if draping it with a layer of golden gauze.

Tendrils of faint black air emerged and disappeared into the atmosphere.

Lin Xuan cleared away the Demon Energy with the Power of Thunder and Lightning, making the coat even warmer, and its defensive power greatly increased.

Lin Xuan’s Thunder power was very high-grade; not even Thunder Martial Arts of two Spirit Ranks could compare to his.

This Thunder came from the treasure mountain of Xuantian Sect, Cloud Thunder Mountain, and was exceedingly precious.

As he walked down the street, Lin Xuan heard something that excited him.

There was to be an auction in three days’ time; reportedly, there would be many valuable items.

Lin Xuan had long wanted to auction off his Xuan-grade treasure saber; it seemed this was a good opportunity.
