With the matters here concluded, Xiao Lin and Ji Li naturally left this desolate desert.
Subsequently, the two entered a small city. With a sweep of his soul power, Xiao Lin discovered that the strongest practitioner in this small city was merely a Dou Huang. Therefore, he did not pay it much mind.
At this time, Xiao Lin and Ji Li were currently eating at an inn. Although at their current realm, they were already fully capable of abstaining from food. However, sometimes, they still liked to satisfy their appetite.
Especially since they had stayed in that Spatial Trade Fair venue within the desolate desert for nearly half a month, and after coming out, they had also fought a battle with the Gao brothers.
Now could be considered a time to relax slightly.
"Brother Ji Li, what are your plans next?"
After eating and drinking their fill, Xiao Lin also opened his mouth to ask.
After the two of them killed the Gao brothers, the relationship between each other had also drawn a step closer. When speaking about certain things, there was naturally no need to hide them away anymore.
"Me? First cultivate for a period of time, at the Spatial Trade Fair, didn't I obtain a Wind and Thunder Fury Flame? Next is naturally to refine and swallow it. Then it will be waiting for the arrival of the next Yin year, Yin month, Yin day, and Yin hour!"
Ji Li did not conceal anything either, directly stating his own plans.
"The Yin year, Yin month, Yin day, and Yin hour, is that when the formation regarding the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix you mentioned has its weakest power?"
Xiao Lin also instantly understood this point.
"Exactly! I have calculated this time, it should be the Zi hour on the second day of the second month, three years from now!"
Ji Li gave the specific time.
"Still three years?"
Muttering a sentence, at this moment, it was unknown what Xiao Lin thought of.
Looking at the silent Xiao Lin, Ji Li did not ask much either. In these three years of time, his strength could still rise by more than one level!
"What about you, Brother Lin, what are your plans?"
After a while, Ji Li asked back.
"Raise my strength, and then look for a artifact refining master to help me forge a artifact!"
Xiao Lin similarly had no intention of hiding it from Ji Li.
He had also obtained a Soul Dou Technique - Three Transformations of the Returning Soul at the Spatial Trade Fair. Next, Xiao Lin naturally needed to upgrade his application of soul techniques.
In addition, Xiao Lin was also thinking of finding some time to upgrade his current Cultivation Technique, the Starry Canon, which was only at the Mid-Level Earth Grade.
In the earlier years, because his own strength was still relatively weak, Xiao Lin wanting to deduce his Starry Canon to the High-Level Earth Grade was not only low in success rate, but also time-consuming and laborious.
Now it was different.
With the vision of his Nine-Star Dou Zun cultivation, plus his mid-stage Heaven Realm soul power, as well as his experience from these years of tempering, he had the confidence that without spending too much time, he could make the Starry Canon upgrade by another grade!
This was Xiao Lin's current plan.
Overall, he still took raising his own strength as the primary task!
"I understand, then, Brother Lin, it is also time for us to part ways."
In front of the table, Ji Li stood up, preparing to bid farewell to Xiao Lin.
At the same time, Xiao Lin also knew that it was indeed time for them to part. Although the next goals of the two arrived at the same destination by different routes, both being mainly focused on raising their own strength.
But the path walked was, after all, different.
"Brother Ji Li, then I wish you good luck, three years later, we will meet again!"
At this time, Xiao Lin had also stood up, cupping his hands toward Ji Li as he spoke.
"See you in three years!"
Having said that, Ji Li turned around to leave.
Just that, having just taken a step, he seemingly recalled something.
"Oh, right, I hope that three years later, Brother Lin, your strength won't disappoint me!"
He did not turn his head, but Ji Li's voice, however, drifted over.
"Naturally, that is also what I want to say to you."
At this moment, the two truly felt a sense of mutual appreciation.
Some people, might have known each other for a long time, but remained only a superficial relationship. But some people, even if the time spent together was not long, could still be regarded as a soulmate.
Between Xiao Lin and Ji Li, it was exactly like this now!
Ji Li left.
Not long after, Xiao Lin also left this small city.
However, regarding Ji Li's identity, Xiao Lin now already had some speculations.
Recalling the entire plot of Battle Through the Heavens, the only thing Xiao Lin could think of that could plunge a person into a daze without any resistance was the famous signature technique of that legendary person!
Combined with the thought of that mysterious white mist that had appeared inexplicably during the battle between Ji Li and Gao Hai that day, Xiao Lin became even more certain of his speculation.
"If he is a descendant of that legendary person, it seems very reasonable that Ji Li could produce a Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame Map Fragment"
Xiao Lin thought to himself silently in his mind.
Thinking about how he had actually come into contact with a descendant of such a legendary figure, Xiao Lin himself felt extremely surprised. By this time, Xiao Lin had already begun to gradually break free from the influence of the original story.
After all, what he was currently in was a real world, not a textual world within a novel. Thus, there were naturally many things and many characters in the novel that were not fully described.
Ji Li was exactly such a person.
Although Xiao Lin had now guessed Ji Li's identity, since the other party hadn't brought it up, he had no intention of piercing the layer of paper either. Therefore, after parting ways with Ji Li, Xiao Lin began to concentrate fully on his own matters.
Three Transformations of the Returning Soul, this Soul Dou Technique, Xiao Lin had already begun to cultivate it. Just like the name of this Dou Technique, cultivating the Three Transformations of the Returning Soul had a total of three realms.
The First Transformation - Soul Refining!
The Second Transformation - Soul Transforming!
The Third Transformation - Soul Condensing!
Once cultivated to the realm of Soul Condensing, Xiao Lin could even allow his soul to leave his physical body while still maintaining a solid, condensed state. A soul in that state would look no different from a normal person to the naked eye of an outsider.
Furthermore, although the Three Transformations of the Returning Soul was a Dou Technique, it was not a Dou Technique that directly allowed the cultivator to obtain a specific soul offensive or defensive method.
Instead, it allowed the cultivator to master the techniques of utilizing soul power. During this process, the cultivator could evolve it into a Soul Dou Technique on its own!
In other words, by cultivating the Three Transformations of the Returning Soul, Xiao Lin could comprehend Soul Dou Techniques that suited him right from within it.
It had to be said, this Soul Dou Technique, Three Transformations of the Returning Soul, could indeed be called miraculous.
Therefore, in the days that followed, while searching for a artifact refining master across the Central Plains continent, Xiao Lin cultivated the Three Transformations of the Returning Soul at the same time.
The latter was easy enough to manage, because Xiao Lin himself possessed a mid-stage Heaven Realm soul realm, so he naturally entered the threshold of cultivation very easily.
Not long after, Xiao Lin reached the Second Transformation of the Three Transformations of the Returning Soul, the Soul Transforming realm!
At the same time, he also comprehended two Soul Dou Techniques from it.
They were the Great Extinction Silent Sound and the Soul-Shaking Bell, respectively.
The Great Extinction Silent Sound was a purely offensive Soul Dou Technique that Xiao Lin could emit from his mouth in the form of sound, somewhat similar to the Lion's Roar in wuxia novels, but the damage was dealt to the enemy's soul!
As for the Soul-Shaking Bell, it was an offensive and defensive all-in-one Soul Dou Technique.
It condensed one's own soul power into a bell. This bell could be used to protect oneself from the enemy's soul attacks. At the same time, one could also strike the Soul-Shaking Bell to unleash a soundwave attack!
It could be said that these were two very convenient and practical Soul Dou Techniques. At this point, Xiao Lin had finally mastered Soul Dou Techniques belonging to himself!
In the future, he would no longer need to simply use his powerful Heaven Realm soul power to smash things with brute force.
He was a person with techniques now!
After mastering these two Soul Dou Techniques, Xiao Lin himself was also incredibly excited. For this day to come, it really hadn't been easy for him!
