86: Chapter 86 Heading to the Holy Land

"It looks like a new map has appeared again," Lin Heng said, looking at the simulator.

He didn't care about the Breakthrough of Prisoner 6, because Lin Heng could do it himself now; instead, Lin Heng's attention was entirely focused on the four words: Tianheng Continent.

"That old man said he achieved a Breakthrough to Soul Transformation." Lin Heng didn't know what this Realm was, but seeing it, he knew that Tianheng Continent was a world of cultivation.

"The main problem now is that I don't know which step of Martial Arts this Soul Transformation corresponds to," Lin Heng thought to himself.

From previous simulations and Chu Nanxuan's words, he roughly deduced that in the cultivation Realms, Qi Refining corresponds to the Martial Arts Innate, which is the first step; Foundation Establishment is the Martial Arts Saint, the second step; and the subsequent Golden Core corresponds to the Martial Arts Myth, the third step.

"Since this old man can turn dozens of Mortals into Golden Core cultivators with a single drop of blood, his Cultivation must be at least the third step or higher," Lin Heng thought.

"Forget it, it's Prisoner 6's bad luck anyway. That old man probably mistook the commotion of Prisoner 6's Breakthrough for some so-called supreme treasure."

Thinking this, Lin Heng looked at the simulator again.

The text on the simulator was still scrolling...

[Mu Xue was stunned by your kiss and blinked twice before coming back to her senses.]

[She looked at you in front of her and swallowed. Words like monster, Prodigy, and peerless Prodigy couldn't help but appear in her mind.]

[Mu Xue actually had pride; she was a Prodigy herself, but she had been defeated by you at the Pill King Competition, though this did not crush the pride in her heart.]

[At the same time, having been with you all these years, although you didn't tell each other your exact Cultivation, she felt that she should be Cultivating faster than you.]

[But today, Mu Xue realized that seeing you was like a mayfly looking up at the bright moon.]

[She looked at you, and your gaze was entirely on her.]

[The Prodigy before her had eyes filled only with a girl named Mu Xue.]

[Thinking of this, the corners of Mu Xue's eyes curved, she couldn't help but smile at you, and then grabbed your arm.]

[She opened her mouth and bit down hard.]

["Ah!!!" you couldn't help but yell.]

[Usually, when Mu Xue bit you, you wouldn't use any Spiritual Qi for defense, just feeling the pain and letting this little kitten leave tooth marks on your body.]

[But this time, this little kitten actually used Spiritual Qi.]

[It really hurts!!]

[After biting, Mu Xue wiped the saliva from her mouth, looked at the purple tooth marks she had left on your arm, and nodded with satisfaction.]

["By the way, Lin Heng." Mu Xue took a lollipop out of her pocket and handed it to you: "During the finals of the Pill King Competition back then, were you really only at the Transcendent Realm?"]

[You skillfully unwrapped the candy and handed it to this little kitten.]

[Mu Xue caught your candy but didn't put it in her mouth, instead twirling it in her hand, her eyes looking at you like a little devil.]

[Well, it looks like you don't need to explain.]

["Actually, at that time... I really was at the Transcendent Realm!" you said righteously.]

["Liar!" As she spoke, Mu Xue tackled you onto the bed: "Looking at you, you're obviously lying to me!"]

[Mu Xue held the lollipop in her hand, tapping your tongue; it was blueberry flavored.]

["Tell me!"]

["Fine, at that time I was at the Innate Realm!"]

["Wrong, you still look like you're lying to me!"]

["Then... Martial Saint?"]

["Why are you using a question, Mr. Lin Heng? And your expression tells me you still aren't telling the truth!"]

["Miss Zhou Mu Xue, actually, at that time I was already a Martial Arts Myth."]

["Nom!"]

["Didn't you already bite my neck? Wait, why are you using Spiritual Qi, General Zhou Muxue!!!"]

["Isn't my Mr. Lin Heng a Martial Arts Myth? If I don't use Spiritual Qi to bite you, how would you feel pain!!"]

["No, Miss Zhou Mu Xue, Martial Arts Myth is only the third step of Martial Arts; now I am already at the fourth step of Martial Arts!"]

["Nom!"]

[...]

[You and Mu Xue arrived at Shengjing Mountain.]

["Why did you freeze this Young Miss guarding the mountain?" Mu Xue asked, looking at the woman holding a jade flute behind you.]

[You thought for a moment: "Maybe it's a custom?"]

[Regardless of anything else, the other party had killed Prisoner 4, so you definitely had to retaliate. Prisoner 5's method of retaliation was to freeze her here for a few hours, so this time when you saw her, you also directly froze her.]

[Mu Xue blinked, not understanding what you meant.]

[As soon as the Shengjing gate was pushed open, you saw an old man standing in front of the gate, looking at you.]

[The old man was in a crisp military uniform, his hair gray but he was full of vigor. He held a long spear in his hand and had an unlit cigarette in his mouth, standing behind the gate as if he had known you would come.]

[The old man's Cultivation was the God Realm; without a doubt, he was the supreme commander of this Shengjing, Ye Tong.]

[He didn't use his Divine Sense to probe you, but Ye Tong knew there was no need for that.]

["You must be Lin Heng." Ye Tong said to you, gripping his long spear.]

[You nodded: "Junior Lin Heng, the purpose of this visit is to pay a visit to the Zhou Family."]

[Your attitude was still relatively respectful; after all, the other party was a hero guarding Shengjing.]

[Even if he was just a little ant at the God Realm.]

[Ye Tong flicked the cigarette in his mouth and waved the long spear in his hand. Immediately, a Fire Phoenix phantom appeared behind him. He looked at you: "Do you need to have your little girlfriend on the side hide?"]

[You glanced at Mu Xue; her eyes reflected that Fire Phoenix.]

["Do I need to hide?" Mu Xue said.]

["No!" your tone was calm.]

["Is that so?" Ye Tong gripped his long spear tightly and rushed toward you in an instant. His Spiritual Qi surged, and the Fire Phoenix flapped its wings, following behind him.]

[With this strike, Ye Tong held nothing back and directly used his strongest killing move.]

[Your expression didn't change in the slightest.]

[The moment Ye Tong made his move, you saw three flaws in his technique; as he moved, the flaws turned into five.]

[However, this didn't matter to you. Flaws are only useful when both sides have similar strength. For example, two tigers—one strong, one small. The small tiger can seize the strong tiger's flaw and kill it, but what if the opponent is a Tiger tank?]

[You wrapped your arm around Mu Xue's shoulder and just said softly: "Break!"]

[The long spear in Ye Tong's hand snapped, the screech of the Fire Phoenix came to an abrupt end, and the sky full of flames was extinguished in an instant, as if someone had pulled the gas line.]

[Ye Tong stepped back several paces and looked at you with an "as expected" expression.]

["You really have already achieved a Breakthrough to the fourth step!"]

[You nodded slightly, then smiled: "I wonder if we can pass now?"]

["Please!" Ye Tong made a gesture of invitation and said to you.]

[Watching you and Mu Xue leave, several Peak Martial Saint experts nearby hurried over.]

["Big Brother, are we just letting this kid leave like that?" one Martial Saint said.]

[Ye Tong glanced at him: "Old Zhang, here's a cigarette, go smoke on the side. Matters involving using one's brain don't require your participation."]

[The Martial Saint named Old Zhang took Ye Tong's cigarette and retreated to the side, looking at the people nearby: "What did Big Brother mean?"]

[The Martial Saint nearby looked at Old Zhang and sighed: "I really want to know how you, Old Zhang, managed to Cultivate to the Peak Martial Saint Realm. If we don't let that young man go, what else can we do? He is at the fourth Realm; all of us combined might not be enough to fight him!"]
