#55 - Kill Lei Bao and destroy Xie family
【Task: Become a One-Mark Symbol Master. Reward: Spirit +2, Comprehension +2, Elementary Symbol Talent +2. Completed, claim reward?】
“Claim!”
【Spirit 23 (One in a Hundred) — Spirit 25 (One in a Hundred).】
【Comprehension 19 (Outstanding) — Comprehension 21 (One in a Hundred).】
“Hoo~ Awesome! Improved again.”
Lin Yun felt a cool sensation in his mind, very comfortable.
“My spiritual power has become much stronger. After condensing the symbol mark, my control over spiritual power has also greatly improved. Now it's much easier to cast the Beast Control Technique, and the condensed spiritual imprint is also more stable.”
Lin Yun felt the changes in his spiritual power and became even more satisfied.
“Now, practice the Nether Profound Sword.”
“Try creating a task!”
【Task: Practice controlling the Nether Profound Sword for one minute. Reward: Elementary Proficiency in Spiritual Power Control +1.】
“This works too, that's great.”
Lin Yun immediately began practicing.
Controlling the Nether Profound Sword is not learning martial arts, but the reward gained is proficiency in "Spiritual Power Control."
This is a very basic ability, like normal physical exertion and Yuan Power control.
But precisely because it is basic, it is important.
Under equal strength, power control is a very detailed thing, and these details often determine success or failure.
Lin Yun was not in a hurry to do other things.
He practiced controlling the Nether Profound Sword in the courtyard.
Having just condensed the symbol mark and become a One-Mark Symbol Master, his symbol mark was not yet solid enough and needed some time to stabilize.
The Spirit Nourishing Pill and Mind Concentrating Pill he obtained before were now perfect for use.
Lin Yun created cultivation tasks and cultivated tirelessly. With Qi Replenishing Pills, Spirit Nourishing Pills, and other pills, he could cultivate almost non-stop.
In the blink of an eye, five days passed!
【Task: Spiritual Power Control reaches Perfection. Reward: One bottle of Fifth-Grade Spirit Nourishing Pills. Completed, claim reward?】
【Task: Ancient Vortex Symbol Mark Condensation Method cultivated to Perfection. Reward: One bottle of Fifth-Grade Mind Concentrating Pills. Completed, claim reward?】
“Claim!”
He obtained two more bottles of pills.
Lin Yun was in a great mood.
Now he could easily control the Nether Profound Sword, and his spiritual power control had reached a precise and meticulous level, allowing him to control the extension of his spiritual power very well.
Now, when he released his spiritual power to investigate, Lin Yun felt that even a Heavenly Yuan Realm Late Stage expert would definitely not be able to detect it.
Only after reaching the level of Perfection in control did he realize how crude his previous use of spiritual power was.
In addition, his natal spirit symbol had also completely stabilized, and his spiritual power had increased again. Lin Yun felt that he had already reached the level of a Two-Mark Symbol Master, and in a few days, he would be able to try condensing the second symbol mark and break through to become a Two-Mark Symbol Master.
“It's time to investigate the situation of the Lei and Xie families. It would be best to kill Lei Bao, that old dog, before he breaks through to the Yuan Dan Realm, to avoid trouble.”
That night, Lin Yun got up, put Hu Ying into the alchemy furnace, and slipped out of the courtyard.
His current strength was enough to sweep through the Heavenly Yuan Realm, and with the Nether Profound Sword, he could even fight against the Yuan Dan Realm.
In the original story, Lei Bao began to deal with the Lin family after breaking through to the Yuan Dan Realm.
Calculating the time, it should be about time for Lei Bao to break through to the Yuan Dan Realm.
Since he knew the plot, Lin Yun's principle was to nip the danger in the bud.
Half an hour later!
Lin Yun, wearing a black robe exclusive to the Soul Hall elders, arrived at the Lei family.
He first used his spiritual power to investigate the situation of the Lei mansion from the outside.
After reaching the One-Mark Symbol Master level, his spiritual power could already reach every corner of the Lei mansion.
The Lei mansion was unusually deserted at night, perhaps because Lin Yun had killed four Heavenly Yuan Realm experts from their family, causing the family's strength to decline, and there were not many people in the entire Lei mansion.
Lin Yun quickly detected Lei Bao's location in a courtyard deep within the Lei mansion.
Spiritual power was like his eyes.
Lin Yun saw that Lei Bao was currently sitting cross-legged on a futon. On the table in front of him, sandalwood incense that could calm the mind was burning, and there were also a pile of fiery red stones, four fruits, and three bottles of pills.
There were more than a hundred Yang Yuan Stones.
Lin Yun recognized all four fruits, three green and one red.
The green fruits were Green Yuan Fruits, Fourth-Grade spiritual herbs.
The red one was a Fire Source Fruit, a Fifth-Grade spiritual herb.
The three bottles of pills looked like they contained ten each, so there should be thirty Yang Yuan Pills.
Judging from his appearance, he should be adjusting his breath, seeking the best state. Once he reached that state, he would immediately take the medicine and try to break through.
“Heh heh, old fellow, you haven't broken through yet, then you have no chance.”
“The resources are prepared quite richly. So many good things, and you didn't even know to send them to me as express delivery. Not proactive enough.” Lin Yun's mouth cracked into a dangerous smile.
“Heh heh heh, since that's the case, then don't blame me for coming to collect the goods myself!”
【Task: Kill Lei Bao. Reward: One bottle of Fifth-Grade Condensing Yuan Pills.】
“Whoosh!”
Lin Yun directly stepped on the Nether Profound Sword and flew at low altitude. Because he was wearing a black robe, no one noticed him in the night sky.
Arriving above Lei Bao's courtyard, Lin Yun restrained his aura and slowly landed.
A lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit!
To be safe, let's ambush him.
The latest novels are on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
Lin Yun controlled the Nether Profound Sword, turning it into a sword shadow, and with a whoosh, it shot into the room from the window, straight towards Lei Bao's crown.
The moment the sword broke through the window, Lei Bao immediately woke up.
“Who~”
However, just as he uttered a word, a spurt of blood appeared on his forehead.
“Hmm, died just like that? Too easy!”
Lin Yun opened the door and went in. He saw Lei Bao still sitting on the futon, with a bloody hole in his forehead, but his eyes were wide open like copper bells, as if he had seen something incredible. The image of the Nether Profound Sword was still in his eyeballs.
“You are a good person!”
Lin Yun opened his mouth and said quite seriously.
Immediately, he closed Lei Bao's eyes and collected the spiritual herbs, pills, and Yang Yuan Stones on the table.
“Let's see if there are any other good things.”
Lin Yun searched Lei Bao's courtyard. Before long, he found three more good things.
Three books treasured in a cabinet.
Opening them, he saw:
Third-Rate Secret Manual, 《Lei Yuan Gong》.
Fourth-Grade Martial Art, 《Thunder Flash》.
Fourth-Grade Martial Art, 《Profound Thunder Step》.
“Not bad, not bad, this is the Lei family's inheritance, much stronger than our Lin family.”
The Lin family only has Pure Yuan Finger as a Fourth-Grade martial art. After they improved the Qimen Seal, they had one more, but the Lei family has always had two. No wonder they could suppress the Lin family and the Mad Saber Martial Hall before.
Lin Yun picked up Lei Yuan Gong and roughly flipped through it. This cultivation method could actually open up eight meridians, which was also much stronger than the Lin family's Green Yuan Gong.
Green Yuan Gong can only open up four, even if it is improved by Lin Dong's Stone Talisman, it is only seven.
The strength of the cultivation method determines the speed of cultivation to a certain extent.
“Taking these three secret manuals back will improve the Lin family's foundation and strength again. I believe Grandpa and the others will be very happy.”
Lin Yun put away the books and quietly left the Lei family.
He came and went quickly!
The entire Lei family was still calm, and no one noticed that their patriarch was gone.
Lin Yun turned a few streets and arrived at the Xie family.
The same operation, first using spiritual power to investigate.
“Strange, that old dog Xie Qian is not here.”
Lin Yun was puzzled. Of the three remaining Heavenly Yuan Realm experts in the Xie family, two were at home. He didn't know where Xie Qian had run off to.
“Since I'm already here, I'll take a few.”
Lin Yun was like the life-reaping Black Impermanence. After creating a task, he silently entered the Xie family.
This time, he was not in a hurry to kill people.
The two people were only in the early and middle stages of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, so there was no need to ambush them.
Lin Yun wanted to first force them to reveal Xie Qian's whereabouts.
