321: Chapter 318 You've finally shown yourself.

It was a woman.

She wore a plain white dress without any elaborate decorations, and her long hair was casually tied back with a wooden hairpin.

Her features were obscured by a faint mist, making them difficult to see clearly, but the Aura she exuded was enough to make the myriad worlds pale in comparison.

It was a quality of ultimate free-spiritedness, ultimate laziness, and... an absolute arrogance that simply did not hold anything in regard.

"Old hag, you're finally willing to show your face."

Su Lin looked at this illusory figure, his tone carrying a hint of nostalgia, but also a hint of gritted teeth.

This figure was none other than his cheap Master, Ling Xin, who had been missing for an unknown number of years and had once ground him into the mud.

The phantom of the white-clothed woman turned her head slightly, and the mist obscuring her features seemed to dissipate a little. She looked at Su Lin before her and let out a crisp, playful chuckle.

"Yo, isn't this my obedient disciple who keeps a straight face all day and is as stiff as a little Old Man?"

Ling Xin's voice was clear and pleasant, yet it carried a rebellious air that seemed to crave Chaos.

"What, you're finally willing to crawl up from that dilapidated Lower Realm? I thought you were going to be a local tyrant in that ant nest for the rest of your life."

"I thought the mark you left in this godforsaken place would provide some kind of cheat code for clearing the stage. After all that, you just left a holographic projection to mock me?"

"Don't look at your Master with the eyes of a jilted lover."

Ling Xin waved her hand with a righteous air.

"You must be cursing me in your heart for screwing you over, right? Save it. As for what kind of world-shaking battle happened in this dump a hundred thousand years ago, your Master is just as clueless as you."

Su Lin's eyebrows twitched wildly: "You don't know? Then why did you leave a mark here to act all profound?"

"When your Master ascended hundreds of years ago, this place was already a giant trash recycling station."

Ling Xin floated in mid-air, resting her chin on her hand.

"I wandered around for a bit and thought the scenery here was too poor, so I casually left a phantom and slipped away to play in the deeper Inner Domain. I calculated that a tough kid like you would definitely fall into this pit after Ascension, so I specially left a message to keep you from being lonely."

Su Lin took a few deep breaths, forcibly swallowing the curses that had rushed to his throat.

He finally understood where his disciples' unreliable and crazed attributes came from; the root cause was entirely in this Grandmaster. Like teacher, like disciple!

Ling Xin ignored Su Lin's constipated expression. Her gaze swept past Su Lin and looked at the other three women standing on the jade steps below.

As Chu Weiwei, Su Hongling, and Yan Rusi were swept by this gaze, they suddenly felt an indescribable, terrifying pressure descend upon them.

"Eh?"

Ling Xin seemed somewhat surprised. She looked left and right, her tone carrying a hint of obvious disappointment.

"Where's that girl Luo Ximei from last time? Why isn't she by your side?"

Su Lin replied: "The Ascension passage collapsed. I used Star Power to randomly teleport them away, and now we're separated."

"What a shame."

Ling Xin smacked her lips, making no secret of her favoritism.

"I still like that girl! That wild and crazed Demonic Path temperament is just too much to my taste. If she were here, I would definitely pass my legacy on to her."

As soon as these words were spoken...

The air below instantly dropped to freezing point.

Chu Weiwei's amethyst-like eyes shrank suddenly, and her hands hidden in her sleeves clenched tightly, her nails digging deep into her flesh.

(On what basis?!)

Chu Weiwei roared frantically in her heart. (What's so good about that fox spirit who cultivates the Demonic Path?! I'm clearly the one who has always stayed by Revered Master's side, I'm the one who used my Origin Essence Blood to detoxify Revered Master, and I'm the one who warmed Revered Master's bed! Why does this old hag only like her?!)

Her purple heart-shaped pupils flickered violently in the shadows, and morbid jealousy grew frantically in Chu Weiwei's heart like poisonous weeds. If it were anyone else, she would have already thrown a handful of poison powder to leave nothing left of them.

But the one before her was her Master's Master.

That bottomless pressure made even moving a finger difficult for her. She could only bite her lip hard, forcibly suppressing all her madness and resentment in her gut.

Beside her, Su Hongling was also full of displeasure.

She slammed her broad great sword onto the ground, making a dull thud.

Although her heart was full of complaints, Su Hongling's beast-like intuition told her that the translucent woman in mid-air was extremely dangerous and she absolutely must not talk back.

Ling Xin took in everyone's expressions below, her eyes hidden behind the mist curving into two crescents.

"Tsk tsk, it seems you're quite dissatisfied with my evaluation."

Ling Xin floated down, circled around Su Hongling, and reached out a translucent finger to lightly tap the surface of the great sword.

"Red-haired girl, it's rare to reach this level as a Body Cultivator. Unfortunately, your head is full of muscle. In this Upper Realm, it's not just strength that counts. With your head-on temperament, you'll suffer a big loss sooner or later."

Su Hongling's face turned red with frustration, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

Ling Xin then floated in front of Chu Weiwei, looking down at the seemingly pure and harmless girl.

"As for you..."

Ling Xin chuckled, her tone carrying an undisguised insight, "Pretending to be a white lotus on the outside, but completely black on the inside. All day long, you're plotting how to drug others and how to tie your Revered Master to your side. This kind of morbid possessiveness will eventually lead you to play with fire and get burned."

Chu Weiwei trembled all over, cold sweat instantly soaking her back. She felt that in front of this woman, all her disguises were torn to shreds.

Finally, Ling Xin's gaze fell on Yan Rusi, who was hiding at the back and shivering.

"A Hehuan Sect cauldron Physique? Quite a top-grade one."

"To be able to survive in such a desperate place, you're lucky. However, staying by this unlucky disciple of mine, your days won't be easy."

Yan Rusi was so scared that she knelt directly on the ground, not even daring to raise her head.

After evaluating the three, Ling Xin floated back in front of Su Lin.

"Alright, enough small talk. The energy of this phantom of mine is running low and won't last much longer."

Ling Xin put away her cynical expression, her demeanor becoming slightly more serious.

"Obedient disciple, your current cultivation is simply too weak. A mere Half-Immortal who just barely crossed the line is not even qualified to be a janitor for those large Sects in this Taihuang Immortal Domain."

Su Lin twitched his lips: "Thanks to you, I was hunted down as a heretic as soon as I ascended. It's already good that I kept my life."

"Stop complaining. Your Revered Master will give you a hand and forcibly push you to the Earth Immortal realm."

Ling Xin raised her hand, and a cluster of dazzling Immortal Qi lit up at her fingertip.

That light was pure and vast, carrying a supreme Law that transcended this broken ruin.

However, just a second before that cluster of Immortal Qi was about to touch Su Lin's forehead, Ling Xin's movement suddenly stopped.

She looked Su Lin up and down, rubbed her chin, and let out a meaningful "Eh".

"Obedient disciple, this Physical Body of yours... has a bit of a problem."

Su Lin was stunned: "What problem?"

"You've experienced too many tragic explosions and Law impacts in the Lower Realm. Although you have that messy star chart protecting you, the masculine Yang Qi of your male body has created a huge conflict with the violent and chaotic Immortal Qi of this Taihuang Immortal Domain."

Ling Xin was talking nonsense with a serious face.

"If I directly pour in the Earth Immortal Origin, your body definitely won't be able to handle it and will explode into a firework on the spot."

Alarm bells rang in Su Lin's heart, and a very ominous premonition instantly enveloped his whole body.

He knew this old hag too well. Whenever she showed this seemingly serious expression that actually hid a mischievous intent, there was definitely no good news!

"Old hag, stop playing tricks. My Physical Body has been tempered a thousand times, and I even have an inner world as support. How could I possibly not handle the Earth Immortal Origin?" Su Lin tried his best to stay calm, attempting to use logic to refute her nonsense.

However, Ling Xin didn't buy it at all.

"Obedient disciple, you were indeed someone in the Lower Realm. But in a high-dimensional space like the Taihuang Immortal Domain, that bit of foundation you're proud of is like a paper toy."

Ling Xin reached out her translucent jade finger and lightly tapped the void.

A visible golden ripple instantly rippled out, firmly pinning Su Lin to the spot.

Su Lin was horrified. He frantically mobilized the Half-Immortal Essence in his body, even trying to communicate with the Myriad Heavens Star Chart in his Sea of Consciousness to break through this confinement.

But he found to his despair that his power was like a clay ox entering the sea in the face of the Space Law Ling Xin had casually laid down, unable to cause even the slightest ripple.

"Look at you, what's the rush? Your Master won't harm you."

Ling Xin floated in front of Su Lin with a smile, her finger unceremoniously poking Su Lin's chest.

"You have excess Yang Qi, and your way of doing things is too rigid. With this kind of Physique that is easily broken by its own rigidity, if you are directly and forcibly infused with violent Earth Immortal Laws, there will be only one outcome: your Meridians will be completely shattered, and you will die from body explosion."

As Ling Xin spoke, her hands suddenly formed an extremely strange hand seal in front of her chest.

A strange light cluster, a mix of ambiguous pink and dazzling gold, quickly condensed in her palm.

The Aura emanating from this light cluster had the supremacy of the Immortal Dao Laws, yet it also carried a strange magic that made one's blood boil.

"Therefore, before helping you improve your cultivation, your Master must first give you a full-body Yin and Yang harmony modification. This way, you can perfectly absorb the great fortune that follows."

"You dare!" Su Lin's eyes widened, the veins on his forehead bulging.

He knew all too well what kind of character this unreliable Master was.

As for the so-called "Yin and Yang harmony modification", God knows what strange Laws she would stuff into his body!

"When an elder gives a gift, you cannot refuse. Stand still and close your eyes to enjoy it."

The playfulness on Ling Xin's face grew more intense as she unhesitatingly slapped that cluster of strange pink-gold light directly into Su Lin's Dantian and Qi Sea.

Boom!

The moment the light cluster entered his body, Su Lin felt as if ten thousand bronze bells were ringing in his mind at the same time.

Su Lin discovered in horror that his Meridians, which were originally as hard as divine iron, were actually undergoing a kind of irreversible reshaping under the wash of this pink-gold light.

They became wider and tougher, but at the same time, they developed an extremely sensitive characteristic.

Even the slightest flow of Immortal Qi in the surrounding air could cause his Meridians to produce an extremely strong reaction.

"Mgh..."

Su Lin gritted his teeth tightly, desperately holding back that shameful muffled groan.

His face turned bright red, and sweat rolled down his forehead like beads with a broken string.

Standing below, Chu Weiwei, Su Hongling, and Yan Rusi were all stunned at this moment.

Chu Weiwei stared intently at Su Lin's face, which had an abnormal flush, her hands crumpling the hem of her skirt into a mess.

Chu Weiwei's heart was screaming frantically. The urge to rush up and completely take Su Lin for herself was almost breaking through her rational defenses.

But hindered by Ling Xin's terrifying pressure, she could only watch helplessly, her breathing becoming much more rapid.

Su Hongling scratched her messy red hair, her face full of confusion.

"What's wrong with the Old Man? It doesn't look like he's being beaten, it looks more like... he's drunk fake wine?"

As an experienced person from the Hehuan Sect, Yan Rusi saw the mystery contained in that pink-gold light cluster at a glance. She was so scared that she quickly lowered her head, not daring to take another look, for fear that the strange methods of this high-level Immortal would affect her.

"Oh, your endurance is quite strong."

Ling Xin looked at Su Lin, who was covered in sweat but didn't say a word, and nodded in appreciation.

"Alright, the Physique modification is complete. Your Meridians are now as soft as the spirit glue in the Taixu Phantom Sea, enough to accommodate any violent energy wash."

Ling Xin put away her joking demeanor. Although her face obscured by the mist couldn't be seen clearly, the Aura she exuded at this moment underwent a world-shaking change.

One moment she was a cynical, crazy woman, and the next, she transformed into a supreme deity who dominated the life and death of the myriad worlds and held the Heavenly Dao Laws.

"Calm your mind and guard your spirit. If you dare to be distracted during the next main event, even a Great Golden Immortal also cannot save you!"

Accompanied by Ling Xin's sharp shout, she suddenly pushed her hands upward.

The entire huge underground cave shook violently, and endless primordial immortal light emerged from the bottomless cracks beneath the altar.

Under Ling Xin's guidance, these Immortal lights converged frantically towards the top of her head like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

In the blink of an eye, a pure white light ball about the size of a millstone, emitting a suffocating high-dimensional pressure, completely took shape in mid-air.

Contained within this light ball was all the remaining Origin power of this phantom of Ling Xin, and even more so, the most pure and impurity-free Earth Immortal Laws of this Taihuang Immortal Domain!
