“Hmm!” Zhao Ziqi nodded.

“Good, I’ll take you away!” Lin Xuan pulled Zhao Zi Qi along, then swept the surrounding with his icy gaze.

“If you want this young master’s life, you’re still far from capable!

Just wash your necks and wait, when this young master returns, it will be your day of demise.”

Lin Xuan’s voice, cold and biting, echoed around.

Behind him, a dark sword suddenly appeared and swiftly enlarged, a spinning black hole enveloped Lin Xuan and the two.

The sight shocked everyone’s hearts.

Jiu Mo Yan and Yu Qingcheng felt a thump in their chests, and immediately they made a swift move to intercept Lin Xuan.

However, they were still a step too late.

The black hole completely devoured Lin Xuan and his companion, then disappeared quickly.

“Ah, damn it!”

Jiu Mo Yan’s attack missed, and he roared in anger.

He had been so close, just a whisker away from capturing Lin Xuan and obtaining his secrets.

But, Lin Xuan had still managed to escape.

Yu Qingcheng was also shocked; she hadn’t anticipated that Lin Xuan had such a means of escape.

“Junior Brother Ying, quickly check for that thief’s location,” Jiu Mo Yan turned and said swiftly.

From within the ranks, Ying Wuji nodded and then quickly began to sense and search.

“How is it, did you find him?” Jiu Mo Yan asked anxiously.

“Hmm?” Ying Wuji nodded, then his face showed a strange expression.

“Where is that thief?” Jiu Mo Yan asked urgently.

The others also craned their necks, eager to know where Lin Xuan had fled to.

Ying Wuji stretched out his hand, pointing ahead, “If I’m not wrong in my sensing, that man is right there.”

Everyone looked forward, and one by one, their faces took on a peculiar look.

Even Jiu Mo Yan was taken aback: “Junior Brother Ying, are you sure you sensed correctly?

That place is the Ancient Demon Bull Cave.”

…

In the gloomy cave, a black vortex materialized out of nowhere, rapidly expanded, and then two figures emerged.

“Where is this?” Zhao Ziqi grabbed Lin Xuan’s arm tightly as soon as they landed, nervously looking around.

“Don’t just stand there, quickly conceal our energy!” Lin Xuan’s face was pale, his voice very weak.

Zhao Ziqi did not dare to delay, and she quickly set up an array to hide their presence.

Her movements were so fast they were almost instantaneous.

Once he sensed their energy disappear, Lin Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“If I’m not mistaken, this is the Ancient Demon Bull Cave.”

“What?” Zhao Ziqi nearly exclaimed; her eyes were round with shock as she carefully observed her surroundings.

She had thought Lin Xuan would leave the palace, not imagining they would end up in such a perilous place.

Then she asked in confusion, “How did we end up here?”

“Could it be because of that black vortex?”

Lin Xuan just smiled and did not speak.

“Hmph!” Zhao Ziqi pouted and did not pursue the matter further.

After that, she crossed her arms over her knees and sat down.

Lin Xuan also sat cross-legged, quickly consuming Spiritual Wine and circulating a spell to heal his body.

He had not only suffered severe internal injuries but had also forcefully activated the Devouring Sword, nearly depleting his Soul Power.

Hence, he must recover as quickly as possible.

Half a day later, he opened his eyes and finally sighed in relief.

“I need to break through; can you keep watch for me?” Lin Xuan said.

Seeing that Zhao Ziqi agreed, Lin Xuan then took out a piece of Earth Essence.

“For me?”

Zhao Ziqi was stunned when she saw Lin Xuan’s actions.

To think he would share such a crucial thing with her.

“You’re sure about this?

Once you ask to study it early in the morning, you can’t regret it later.”

“Take it, you saved my life; you deserve this.”

Lin Xuan stuffed a piece of Earth Essence into her hands, then took out another piece and began to consume it.

He needed to strengthen his body as quickly as possible in order to break through.

Lin Xuan chose a spot at the deepest part of the Ancient Demon Bull Cave.

Furthermore, both of their presences had already disappeared; unless the Ancient Demon Bull investigated the cave carefully, it would not be able to find them.

Just as Lin Xuan began to absorb the Earth Essence, the likes of Jiu Mo Yan outside had somber expressions.

“Junior Brother Ying, you say that thief is inside the cave?” Jiu Mo Yan was astonished.

He simply could not believe that Lin Xuan would enter the Ancient Demon Bull’s lair.

Ying Wuji was speechless too, he tried to sense again but found that Lin Xuan’s presence had already vanished.

“Their aura has disappeared, but the last place it was definitely inside that cave.”

Jiu Mo Yan’s face darkened with uncertainty, and then his figure flickered as he rushed towards the cave.

However, before he could get close, a huge, shadowy figure charged out, its angry roar shaking heaven and earth.

The Ancient Demon Bull, wielding a bronze giant axe, came thundering over, causing the whole land to tremble.

Jiu Mo Yan had no choice but to retreat quickly.

Upon seeing Jiu Mo Yan and the others, the Ancient Demon Bull’s eyes reddened, and it charged at them with demon energy billowing all over.

“Not good, retreat!” Everyone panicked and fled, not daring to approach.

“Brother Jiu, what do we do now?”

“Leave a few disciples here; if they spot that kid, signal us immediately.”

“Everyone else, come with me to the Exquisite Pavilion.” Jiu Mo Yan said resentfully.

Following that, Yu Qingcheng made the same decision, and a group of people swiftly departed.

…

A piece of Earth Essence was held in Lin Xuan’s hand; then he activated the Longevity Technique and began to absorb the energy within.

Streams of white light swirled around him, forming a white glowing barrier.

Zhao Ziqi witnessed this and quickly manipulated the array to cover all their energies and sights.

Outsiders couldn’t see inside nor sense any aura.

The white barrier enveloped Lin Xuan, and life essence started flowing into his body soon after.

This was the purest form of life’s energy, unadulterated by any impurities.

The energy entered his body, quickly merging and transforming his physique.

Time flowed, and in the blink of an eye, one day and one night had passed.

During that time, the Ancient Demon Bull had come in once, almost causing Zhao Ziqi to cry out.

Fortunately, the Demon Bull didn’t discover anything and left soon after.

The light around Lin Xuan dissipated and surged into his body.

Then he opened his eyes.

That piece of Earth Essence had been completely absorbed by him.

He could sense the changes in his body—his Life Physique had greatly improved, and every piece of his flesh, bones, and muscles were improved, each inch brimming with powerful strength.

Zhao Ziqi was shocked as she looked over.

Because she saw a faint glow circulating over Lin Xuan’s body, extremely delicate, like the skin of a baby.

She had only seen such a condition in Venerables before and had not expected Lin Xuan’s physical constitution to reach this level.

Of course, this didn’t mean Lin Xuan’s bodily strength could compete against a Venerable’s.

Instead, his life level was now comparable to that of a martial artist in the Venerable Realm.

The practice of martial arts was about continually strengthening and breaking through, elevating the body to a higher level of life.

Although Lin Xuan was still at the Spirit Transformation Realm in terms of cultivation, his life level had already broken through to that of the Venerable Realm.

That is to say, from now until the Venerable Realm, every stage he faced would have no bottlenecks.

As long as his cultivation and strength reached the necessary threshold, he would be able to ascend.

You should understand, that’s incredibly terrifying!
