Chapter 403 Purification and Refining
As soon as Lin Zhao woke up, she met Hu Sheng's charming fox-like eyes.

"You're finally awake." Hu Sheng quickly poured her a glass of water, then looked at Lin Zhao as she slowly sat up and asked with some concern, "Are you alright now?"

After realizing that he was still in the soul fragmentation stage, Lin Zhao moved his limbs and felt the pain coming from all over his soul. He sighed and said, "It depends on what aspect you mean."

While her spiritual state was certainly not good, Lin Zhao had never been in such good spirits.

“There are many people outside who want to see you.” Hu Sheng gestured the number of people: “A lot. They were scared off by my use of the name of the Upper Realm Heavenly Fox Clan.”

Lin Zhao knew exactly what was going on after thinking about it.

The arena broadcast the footage of her battle against Ji Wantang. Knowing that she could defeat Ji Wantang in the Divine Soul World, who wouldn't want to get to know her?

Ji Wantang had long been a powerful figure in the Divine Soul World. In the lower realm, apart from the top figures of the same level in various top planes, who else dared to face Ji Wantang?

It's a miracle that someone about the same age as Ji Wantang could beat him to one knee.

Lin Zhao leaned against the headboard and replied, "I won't see you. Also, don't tell anyone in the Upper Realm that Zhao Ling'er is Lin Zhao."

Hu Sheng was surprised for a moment: "Why? A genius of Ji Wantang's caliber would rank in the top twenty on the Upper Realm's Nascent Soul stage prodigy list. If you bring up that reputation, those arrogant guys in the Upper Realm..."

Her voice gradually faded away as Lin Zhao's expression grew increasingly indifferent.

Lin Zhao endured the discomfort in his soul and took out a bottle of perfect seventh-grade pills that he had previously refined from the spatial ring bound to his soul, and handed it to Hu Sheng: "Thank you."

"He who eats another's food is bound to do his bidding," and "He who takes another's gift is bound to do his bidding." Although Hu Sheng was not short of pills, perfect quality pills were indeed rare after reaching the seventh rank. For someone of her family background, this was a valuable item. After accepting the pill, Hu Sheng said, "Don't worry, I will definitely keep your secret."

Lin Zhao nodded before explaining, "Zhao Ling'er's identity conflicts with some of Lin Zhao's identities in our actions. To avoid giving people something to talk about, it's better to have fewer people know about it."

Hu Sheng asked, "Your weapon looks quite special. Was it a gift from an elder in your family?"

Lin Zhao's expression shifted: "Didn't you hear my and Ji Wantang's voices coming from the battle footage?"

Fox Sheng shrugged: "You two were so far apart, and your equipment was broken, so the battle footage wasn't very clear, and the sound stopped right at the beginning."

Lin Zhao was completely relieved: "It was just a chance encounter, nothing more than luck."

Hearing this answer, Hu Sheng knew Lin Zhao wasn't going to tell her, but she didn't press the matter; she was just a little curious. "Once you're better, how will we get out?"

There are still people blocking the way outside.

This is a headache for Lin Zhao too.

However, Zhao Wuchen soon approached her through the Heavenly Mirror, saying that the Zhao family would handle these matters.

I have to say, it's really comfortable to have your own people helping you with things here.

Lin Zhao sighed for a moment, then said to Hu Sheng, "We'll be able to leave soon. Thank you so much this time."

As she spoke, she took out a soul pouch from her sleeve: "There are 300,000 soul coins in here. It's just a small gift to express my gratitude."

Hu Sheng initially wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, she accepted it anyway: "I will definitely stand by your side in the future."

Lin Zhao laughed heartily: "Then thank you very much."

Although Hu Sheng's Heavenly Fox bloodline wasn't strong, she was clearly much more adaptable than those old-fashioned geniuses from the Upper Realm. Plus, given her status as a native of the Upper Realm, having more friends always meant more opportunities. After the Zhao family had made arrangements, Lin Zhao bid farewell to Hu Sheng and returned to the cave within the Blue Duck Secret Realm.

Grandma Honghu finally spoke: "That little girl was actually able to seal the connection between your soul and mine."

Ever since Lin Zhao advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, Granny Honghu has been able to communicate with Lin Zhao through their souls, but she never expected that Ji Wantang would be able to sever this connection.

Lin Zhao said, "She should also have something similar to this."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Honghu nodded and said, "Judging from the situation, you have succeeded."

Lin Zhao nodded, closed her eyes, and a somewhat chaotic phoenix aura appeared in front of her.

"The Ancient Phoenix's Fate is complete."

More than a decade later, the missing parts have finally been completed.

Granny Honghu hovered beside Lin Zhao, looking at the disjointed and chaotic Phoenix Luck, and said, "You need to organize and integrate them. This is a huge project, but once you succeed, your Phoenix Vein Technique will rise by more than one level. Perhaps your Phoenix Luck will also change because of you."

Lin Zhao nodded, looking at the chaotic Phoenix Luck before him, knowing it was a huge project. He then took out the Heavenly Mirror and told the Phoenix Medicine Sect Master about his situation, promising that he would definitely appear during the election, and that he might have to miss the Imperial Election for a while.

Soon the sect leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect replied to her, telling her to focus on her cultivation.

Lin Zhao merged with the Heavenly Mirror and, following the operation of the Phoenix Vein Technique, continuously absorbed and integrated the Phoenix Luck.

Lin Zhao didn't know how much time had passed in the secret realm. He only felt that the energy in his body was becoming more and more abundant. The warmth from his spine flowed through his whole body, making Lin Zhao feel so comfortable that he wanted to shout out loud.

She gradually removed the impure parts from the Phoenix Luck, integrating them into the remaining four parts of her Phoenix Luck.

This was a long process, but it was a process in which Lin Zhao rediscovered herself.

She could feel the return of Phoenix Luck bringing some enrichment to her spiritual roots, and the color of the spiritual energy around her was also subtly changing, from the original pale yellow to a light white.

However, this white color is somewhat different from the color of spiritual energy when a cultivator is not practicing any techniques.

As for exactly where the difference lies?
Lin Zhao narrowed his eyes as he looked at the faint golden light flickering within the vortex of spiritual energy in his hand.

"My spiritual energy cultivation technique has now reached the middle level of the Earth grade. I wonder if my technique can break through to the Heaven grade after the Phoenix Luck is fully integrated."

Grandma Honghu said, "You're almost there. You can try to reach a higher level. Your physical condition and cultivation are already capable of withstanding Heaven-grade techniques. With the addition of the Dragon Evolution Technique, breaking through to this level shouldn't be too difficult."

Lin Zhao nodded, and then continued the purification process of his Phoenix Luck within the secret realm.

……

The Ancestral Phoenix Plane, the capital of the Ancestral Phoenix Empire, the Prince Ding's Mansion.

With a pale face, Ji Wantang leaned against the cold jade couch, looking at the retainers kneeling at her feet and the men and children in her backyard. She circulated the Phoenix Vein Technique to repair her body while using recovery spiritual techniques to continuously repair the damage to her soul.

With the inheritance of the ancestral spirit, it wouldn't be difficult for her to repair her soul, but having six parts of the ancient phoenix's fortune taken away still damaged her foundation to some extent.

Ji Wantang suppressed the pain in her soul, her eyes filled with bloodlust: "I'm going to a place for the next few days and won't be back until the Imperial Election begins. I understand what you mean."

Just as some handsome men were about to express their gratitude, an invisible hand pierced through their chests: "I will take good care of your families."
