Chapter 563 - 405: Blood Soul Bead, Unexpected Harvest? Accepting a Mission

Instantly, all the disciples’ gazes fell upon Lin Chang’sheng. They wanted to see if Lin Chang’sheng still dared to continue challenging.

"That’ll be all for today! Many thanks, Elder Fang!"

Lin Chang’sheng was not arrogant enough to believe he could defeat a Late Stage Integration disciple right now.

He chose to back down immediately!

After all, the difference between Middle and Late Stage Integration was already huge, let alone when he was only at the Early Stage.

"Very well! Then the cave mansions of those sixteen disciples are yours! If no one challenges you in seven days, you may continue to use them!"

Elder Fang smiled warmly, seeing that Lin Chang’sheng hadn’t let his strength go to his head. Such rare talent is truly precious!

"Thank you, Elder Fang!"

Lin Chang’sheng replied politely.

"Cultivate well. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave!"

With that, Elder Fang turned and departed.

The other disciples were reluctant for it to end, but seeing things wrap up, they soon left as well.

On the contrary, a few disciples stayed behind in front of Lin Chang’sheng.

Among them were Wang Huisheng, Zhang Haoran, and the others.

These disciples were the ones who had gone to participate in the Celestial Pride List, so they were somewhat familiar with Lin Chang’sheng.

"Junior Brother Lin, haven’t seen you for a year, and you actually broke through to the Integration Stage?"

Wang Huisheng exclaimed in astonishment.

Lin Chang’sheng’s performance today had really stunned him.

First, Lin Chang’sheng broke through to the Integration Stage; second, Lin Chang’sheng charged up Heaven-Reaching Peak, soaring directly to the sixteenth level in one go—this was absolutely unprecedented.

Wang Huisheng had heard that in the past, there was a peerless talent whose gifts and strength were equally exceptional, but even he couldn’t reach the sixteenth spot.

Sounds like Lin Chang’sheng’s talent is even greater than that renowned genius.

"Just stumbled upon a bit of good fortune, that’s all."

Lin Chang’sheng said humbly.

After a bit more friendly chatting, the group bid farewell and left.

After everyone had gone, Elder Liu Feng came to find Lin Chang’sheng.

"Hold onto this—it’ll help your cultivation!"

Elder Liu Feng handed a blood-red bead to Lin Chang’sheng.

Lin Chang’sheng saw the mighty blood energy swirling within the bead, and instantly knew this was no ordinary item.

"Sixth Elder, this is too valuable, I—"

"No need to stand on ceremony. It’s not that useful to me, but in your hands it’ll be much more effective!"

Elder Liu Feng pressed the red bead into Lin Chang’sheng’s palm.

"Focus on your cultivation. If you need anything, come find me anytime!"

Elder Liu Feng promised.

Yu Qianxue was worried—mainly because he didn’t know Lin Chang’sheng yet.

But Liu Feng felt Lin Chang’sheng was a man of loyalty and honor; as long as you treated him sincerely, he’d never do anything selfish or harmful.

Because when they returned, they were chased by the Celestial Nether Sword Sect, and Lin Chang’sheng held the rear, letting Wang Huisheng and the others escape first—that said it all.

Lin Chang’sheng was no heartless fair-weather friend.

"Thank you, Elder Liu! I will not let you down!"

Seeing this, Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t refuse any further.

"Good, good!"

Elder Liu Feng chuckled, gave him a few more words of advice, then left.

Liu Feng felt that Lin Chang’sheng joining the Immortal Palace was a source of honor for them.

If the sect didn’t do everything it could to cultivate such a talent, it might backfire.

Should another sect offer better terms, Lin Chang’sheng might choose to leave.

So, even if Liu Feng couldn’t persuade the Sect Leader to help wholeheartedly right now, he’d still do all he could to support Lin Chang’sheng’s cultivation.

This blood-red bead was a Blood Soul Bead taken from a mighty spirit beast.

Within it was not only the powerful blood and energy of the spirit beast to help cultivators strengthen their bodies, but also tremendous soul power, able to nourish a cultivator’s Divine Soul.

Truly, a multi-purpose treasure.

After bidding farewell to Elder Liu Feng, Lin Chang’sheng stepped into his cave mansion.

The spiritual energy around this cave was at least ten times denser than outside.

And inside the cave, he discovered an array formation.

Lin Chang’sheng inspected it—it was a Spirit Gathering Array.

With spiritual spring energy and the array’s help, a day of cultivation here equaled ten days outside.

No wonder the disciples training on Heaven-Reaching Peak advanced so quickly, leaving ordinary disciples in the dust.

"Sword Elder, I’ve successfully joined the Immortal Palace. Isn’t it time you tell me where the Loose Immortal Cave Mansion is?"

Lin Chang’sheng asked Sword Elder.

Were it not for Sword Elder’s promise, Lin Chang’sheng wouldn’t have been so determined to join the Immortal Palace.

"Ahem—"

Yet, as soon as Lin Chang’sheng finished speaking, Sword Elder coughed twice to ease the awkwardness.

This gave Lin Chang’sheng a bad feeling. "Don’t tell me you were just fooling me?"

Usually, he’s the one tricking others; if he got played by Sword Elder, he’d lose face big time.

"Why would I? It’s just that you’re still not strong enough—going now would be too dangerous. Once you reach Mahayana Stage, I guarantee I’ll tell you!"

Sword Elder said slowly.

"If you lie to me, you can kiss your physical body goodbye!"

Lin Chang’sheng retorted.

It’s not like he doesn’t have leverage over Sword Elder. If the old guy dared to lie, he wouldn’t get off easy.

"Why would I lie to you? What do I get out of it? Don’t worry!"

Sword Elder replied with a smile.

Lin Chang’sheng didn’t press further. Right now, his main focus was improving his cultivation.

He sat cross-legged, preparing to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around him.

But then he remembered that in his Storage Space, he still had a Heaven and Earth Immortal Vein over three zhang in length.

He took it out immediately.

With the Immortal Vein there, the spiritual energy in the area grew even richer.

Lin Chang’sheng activated the array, sealed the cave mansion, and calmly began circulating the Void Saint King Technique for his cultivation.
