436: Chapter 436 The Reincarnation Heavenly Sword Sect, an increasingly unorthodox system

Lin Ran was stunned, having never expected Yu Xin to suddenly become so bold.

"Eh?!"

"Aren't you being a bit too intimate?!"

"This isn't just coveting my Physical Body in private anymore, this is coveting it right out in the open, isn't it?!"

"Fairy Yu, I can apply the ointment to the previous wounds myself; there's no need for you to trouble yourself."

Lin Ran hurriedly snatched the ointment from Yu Xin's hands, looking embarrassed.

Yu Xin's gaze, deep as the starry sky, stared at his cheeks for several seconds before she suddenly smiled and wrote a large character: "Fine."

The corners of her eyes hid a trace of imperceptible crimson.

It was obvious that she had been aiming for Lin Ran's Physical Body just now, but now she also felt shy.

Over these past few months, she had been keeping Lin Ran company. Although there was no so-called living and dying together or sharing weal and woe, there was only endless ordinariness.

Yet, it was precisely this tranquil passage of time that caused her heart to overflow even more.

Her obsession with Lin Ran had progressed from not daring to look him in the eye at the beginning to her bold actions of today.

Perhaps, from the moment she faced the Lower Corpse Peng Ju in the Three Corpses Immortal Realm, everything had already had an answer.

After applying the ointment, Lin Ran soaked in the Divine Medicinal Bath for a while, and the injuries on his Physical Body were recovering rapidly.

But he knew that the vast majority of the credit for all this had to be attributed to the special ointment Yu Xin had brought from her clan.

"By the way, Yu Xin, are there any signs of the Secret Realm in the Tiandu Demon Realm opening?"

Lin Ran asked.

"Not yet."

Yu Xin shook her head and wrote.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ran thought for a moment and said: "Yu Xin, starting tomorrow, I will have to face the tempering and scouring of the final stone platform."

"This process requires forty-nine days, and it cannot be interrupted."

"Therefore, if that Secret Realm in the Tiandu Demon Realm opens suddenly while I am Cultivating, please trouble your clansmen to stand guard in front of the Secret Realm for a period of time, and do not let other forces enter."

Yu Xin nodded and wrote: "Rest assured, that Secret Realm was discovered by my clan first. As of now, no other forces know about it, so surely no other forces will enter it!"

Lin Ran laughed: "You can't be too absolute about these things. In any case, I will leave this matter to you."

Yu Xin nodded vigorously.

Meanwhile, Lin Ran felt that his Physical Body had recovered sufficiently, so he left the Divine Medicinal Bath, put on his clothes, and intended to head to the Samsara Waterfall to accept the scouring of the first stone platform!

Yu Xin seemed to suddenly remember something; she grabbed the corner of Lin Ran's clothes and wrote: "Wait a moment! You just said that you are going to accept the scouring and tempering of the first stone platform, and it cannot be interrupted for forty-nine days?!"

Lin Ran's expression was slightly puzzled: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Yu Xin looked at Lin Ran's blank, dazed expression and immediately wrote in exasperation: "Are you stupid? The scouring and tempering of the second stone platform already made you miserable, and just persisting for a few days of scouring almost made your Physical Body collapse."

"And now, you want to face the scouring of the first stone platform for forty-nine days. Can your Physical Body withstand it?!"

Watching Yu Xin, who was angry out of concern for him, Lin Ran found it somewhat amusing and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheeks: "When Revered Master knocked on the Wheel of Swords, he also experienced the trial of this stage."

"Since Revered Master could do it, why can't I?"

"Besides, before Revered Master left, he told me that the first stone platform is not like the other eight; it won't cause any substantial damage to the Physical Body."

"However... never mind, the rest isn't a big deal, nothing worth mentioning."

Lin Ran waved his hand, looking indifferent.

What he didn't say was that the scouring of the first stone platform indeed would not cause any substantial damage to the Physical Body.

But Lin Bai had told him that once one stepped onto the first stone platform, there was no turning back. If one could not persist, one would surely face Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!

Lin Bai had warned him that he must make fully comprehensive preparations before he could step onto the first stone platform!

Yu Xin looked at the indifferent Lin Ran, but she always felt that beneath this indifference lay a determination to face death without fear.

Her heart ached, and she subconsciously grabbed Lin Ran's arm tightly, as if not wanting to let him leave.

[Ding! Detected that the Host has triggered a new Heavenly Mandate Mission. Please make the following choices!]

[Option 1: It has always been This Son of Heavenly Mandate who conquers others; how can there be any reason to be conquered by a mere Samsara Waterfall and Wheel of Swords?!]

[Mission: Complete the scouring and tempering of the first stone platform!]

[Reward: 160,000 destiny points, Reincarnation Heaven-Carving Wheel of Swords!]

[Option 2: If you don't scour for forty-nine days, you'll end up with Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering?! Instead of risking your life to knock on the Wheel of Swords, you might as well lie flat and slack off to pick... *cough cough*! The Host understands!]

[Mission: Give up knocking on the Wheel of Swords and turn to conquer Fairy Jiulian!]

[Reward: 160,000 destiny points, one set of pure white nurse outfit!]

"*Cough cough!*"

Looking at the two major options given by the System, Lin Ran couldn't help but dry cough in his heart.

Oh, System!

You are really getting more and more inappropriate the older you get!

However...

This Son of Heavenly Mandate just likes a System as inappropriate as you!

It's just a pity that although the nurse outfit is very dazzling and constantly attracts his attention, the Reincarnation Heaven-Carving Wheel of Swords undoubtedly stimulates his interest even more.

"I choose one!"

Thinking of this, Lin Ran instantly made his choice.

"Fairy Yu, it's only forty-nine days; it doesn't count as too long."

"If you Cultivate with focus, let alone forty-nine days, even forty-nine years would pass in the blink of an eye."

Lin Ran looked at Yu Xin and smiled.

He gently patted the back of Yu Xin's hand and said in a gentle tone:

"I have never taken all the challenges and difficulties before me seriously, because I know they will only be stepping stones on my path to becoming a Venerable."

"Therefore, this time is the same; the mere scouring and tempering of the first stone platform cannot do anything to me."

Watching Lin Ran being so confident and transcendent, Yu Xin's right hand, which was tightly gripping Lin Ran's arm, inexplicably loosened.

Lin Ran rubbed the top of her head, turned around, and left, arriving in front of the Samsara Waterfall, looking at the first stone platform in front of him, which had the strongest scouring power and the most concentrated Reincarnation Dao aura.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Although he had just put on a great show of confidence in front of Yu Xin, facing the first stone platform with its unknown future, he still felt palpitations as he should.

Yu Xin also followed, but she just stared at Lin Ran with a worried face and did not try to stop him again.

Lin Ran carried the Wheel of Swords on his back, his figure flashed, and he rushed onto the first stone platform.

In an instant!

The strongest scouring power contained in the Samsara Waterfall, almost in an instant, began to scour Lin Ran's Physical Body away in a way that stripped away silk threads...
