New and dark light years

Chapter 453 What level has your spear intent reached?
It took nearly two hours to complete the talisman array.

Li Lin took the Rainbow Immortal Sword outside and gently swung it. A rainbow sword aura swept across, cutting all the flowers and plants within three zhang in front of him in two.

He nodded with satisfaction.

With the blessing of the rune array, this rainbow immortal sword can unleash quite powerful sword energy even when driven by 'vital energy'.

Most importantly, it can save about 20% of 'energy', and the effect is similar regardless of whether the user uses spiritual energy, primordial energy, or yin energy as the driving force.

Such a weapon, if not a divine weapon, is at least a formidable one.

But... this weapon has a 'backdoor,' which Li Lin deliberately set up.

It has a positioning system, and the talisman array also hides an 'energy storage' function. It is hidden very well, and only people like Li Lin who are proficient in both talisman and array techniques and are at the 'mastery' level could possibly see it.

Whenever someone activates this rainbow sword, some of its energy will be 'stolen' and stored in a hidden energy storage array to continuously power the positioning system.

Then Li Lin could use his senses to perceive the approximate location of the weapon, even from a great distance.

Most importantly, this weapon is equipped with a 'self-destruct' function. If anyone uses this weapon against Li Lin or Li Lin's four wives, it will self-destruct.

After all... Li Lin and they cultivated together, and their spiritual energy came from the same source.

Li Lin carried the Rainbow Immortal Sword and came to the backyard.

The medicine was ready, and Hongluan was squatting down to feed her the medicine with a spoon.

Zeng Honglu drank it down sip by sip.

After drinking the medicine, Zeng Hongluo looked at Li Lin and asked, "Is the medicine you gave me really effective?"

Li Lin smiled and countered, "Do you know how many precious medicinal herbs are used in this medicine?"

Zeng Honglu shook her head.

Li Lin said, "You probably wouldn't understand even if I explained, so I'll just tell you the prices. The medicinal herbs I had the steward buy are all top-grade, and their value exceeds two hundred taels of silver. And that Tian Shan Snow Lotus, you might not be able to buy it even for a thousand taels of silver."

Zeng Hongluo's eyes were wide open.

Although the Zhuxian Society is very powerful, most of its members and high-ranking members are quite poor.

The most money Zeng Hongluo ever had was just over forty taels of silver, which she considered quite wealthy.

But now, a single Tian Shan snow lotus costs more than a thousand taels of silver. What kind of status do I have to deserve such expensive medicine?

A real hope ignited in Zeng Hongluo's heart, and she asked in a trembling voice, "When will I get better? When will the wounds on my face heal?"

"Your injuries should be almost fully healed by tomorrow, but as for your face... it will take at least three more days." Li Lin said, then planted the Rainbow Immortal Sword in the grass. "Three days later, your injuries will be mostly healed, and then you can leave with this sword. This sword is the merit you will earn."

Zeng Hongluo looked at the Rainbow Immortal Sword, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes.

She had seen many white jade immortal swords before, so she naturally knew that this was a 'product' of their Immortal Execution Society, but how did it end up like this? To be honest, it's quite pretty with its colorful appearance.

Li Lin said to the person next to him, "Yan Jing, Gong'er, you two move her to an empty house and keep an eye on her. Make sure she has enough to eat and drink. If she has any disloyal thoughts, you can decide whether she lives or dies."

"Okay," Li Yanjing replied.

Chu Rengong looked at Zeng Hongluo with a smug smile, as if he was plotting something.

Li Lin ignored the matter and then went to Green Mountain Pass.

Because those two acres of sacred rice are almost ripe.

In the green valley, Li Lin walked along the ridges of the rice paddies, a gentle mountain breeze rustling through the rice fields.

It also has the aroma of sacred rice.

Behind Li Lin were more than a dozen personal guards, including Su Bei, and a group of old farmers.

Li Lin looked around and asked, "It seems that the yield per mu is higher this time than last time."

"We estimate that each mu will yield about a hundred jin more." An old farmer stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Reporting to you, sir, this time we have experience and know how to plant these rice plants."

Li Lin nodded in satisfaction. If each mu yielded an extra hundred jin of spirit rice, then two mu would yield an extra two hundred jin. This would not only allow him to refine more 'Rice Lotus Golden Embryo', which is one of the basic materials for high-grade pills, but also...

The extra spirit rice can be saved up to several dozen kilograms, enough to cook some spirit rice porridge for the four women every day.

Even with dual cultivation... their spiritual energy growth rate was still a bit slow, not quite keeping up with Li Lin's progress.

After all, dual cultivation is primarily male-dominated.

Men grow faster than women. If the difference between them becomes too great over time, the effect of dual cultivation will actually decrease.

Li Lin strolled around the spirit field, then said to Su Bei and the farmers, "Take good care of the spirit rice. When it ripens, I will reward you."

"Thank you, sir."

A group of old farmers were laughing so hard their teeth almost fell out.

It's great to have a generous boss.

Li Lin arrived at the entrance of Green Mountain Pass, about to mount his horse and return to the city, when he suddenly looked up.

Because a sound came from the sky.

"Li Lin!"

At this moment, Li Lin saw Liu Shen, dressed in a blue dress, descend rapidly from the sky, with a white 'giant' following behind her.

As she landed in front of Li Lin, the giant object behind her also crashed to the ground.

boom!
The ground was shaking.

Su Bei and his personal guards could neither see Liu Shen nor the giant object; they only felt the ground shaking. They were startled at first, and then more than a dozen of them immediately shielded Li Lin in the center.

Li Lin waved his hand: "Don't worry, True Monarch Lanlin is here. You all step back."

Su Bei and his personal guards breathed a sigh of relief and retreated as instructed.

Li Lin looked at the giant object and saw that it was a pure white tiger struggling to get up from the crater it had fallen into.

It was shaking its head, clearly stunned by the fall.

Liu Shen walked up to Li Lin, put his hands on his hips and laughed, "I've found you your first great monster, and it's willing to help you."

"I refuse..." the white tiger roared.

But he stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

Because Liu Shen had grabbed a few whiskers from its left cheek in her small hand, and at the same time Liu Shen smiled with narrowed eyes, "Big Tiger, you can't go back on your word, believe me or not I'll pluck all your whiskers off!" The big tiger grimaced in pain, but dared not resist.

Li Lin cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask this Brother Hu's name?"

"Its name is Brain Tiger!" Liu Shen said, hands on her hips. "I named it that."

Li Lin smiled and asked again, "Brother Tiger, would you be willing to become a True Lord and receive the worship of all people?"

Liu Shen released the tiger's whiskers, and the white tiger shook its head. Then it lay down on the ground, raising its head to the same height as Li Lin, and said, "You must be the Paper Prince, right?"

"Have you heard of me?"

Baihu nodded: "Any great ghost with a bit of spiritual awareness who makes a living in Jin County has heard of your name. They will also try to avoid you."

Liu Shen laughed and said, "With me and my older sister protecting you, no one will dare to do anything to you, Li Lin, you can rest assured."

Listening to the two people's words, Li Lin understood... that he seemed to be secretly protected by the Tree Fairy.

"Brother Tiger, let's get back to the topic we were just discussing. Would you be willing to become a True Lord, protect this region, and earn the respect of all people?" Li Lin asked, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

The white tiger pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that... once you enter the altar, there are many things you can no longer do."

“Yes.” Li Lin nodded: “At least we can’t harm humans.”

“I have never eaten a human.” The White Tiger sighed. “In my eyes, human flesh is rotten. But I am also reluctant to become a True Lord, because once you enter the altar, you can no longer travel around.”

Oh, this is a tiger that yearns for a free life, Li Lin understood.

At this moment, Liu Shen became somewhat angry: "Tiger, this isn't what you told me before. You said you were willing."

"The past is the past, and the present is the present," the white tiger said softly, seemingly a little guilty.

Li Lin asked, "Why did Brother Hu suddenly change his mind?"

"You're one of the more powerful humans, I've heard that many humans listen to you."

Li Lin nodded: "I am the military governor of three prefectures, currently commanding 40,000 troops. In a little while, I should have 70,000 to 80,000 troops. What's wrong?"

“But…you humans are really weak. I don’t like to submit to creatures weaker than myself.” The white tiger stood up, at least ten feet tall: “Liu Shen beat me. If she made me her subordinate, I would have no complaints. But you humans are really no good.”

Li Lin smiled, turned around and waved his hand, and Su Bei's long sword immediately flew out of its sheath and into his hand.

Su Bei subconsciously glanced at the empty scabbard at his waist, then at the longsword in Li Lin's hand, filled with admiration.

Li Lin twirled his sword in his right hand, then pointed at the white tiger and said, "Brother Tiger, please enlighten me."

"Your vital energy is not showing. Do you really want to fight me?" the White Tiger asked.

At this moment, Liu Shen also got angry: "Nao Hu, I'm angry at you for acting so recklessly."

The White Tiger whispered, "Liu Shen, you should understand that I am the White Tiger, not an ordinary ghost. If his fate is not good enough, my submission to him will only bring him trouble."

Liu Shen frowned: "Then you should just submit to me."

"That's not how it works. Every cause has its effect. Trying to be clever won't work!"

Liu Shen looked at Li Lin: "I'm sorry, Li Lin... I've thought about it, and he's right. The White Tiger might not be suitable for a True Lord. I'll go and find one for you again."

Li Lin shook his head: "No need. As long as we beat him, we won't be affected by any karma, right?"

Li Lin vaguely understood that the white tiger in front of him, like Liu Shen, was not a monster in the traditional sense, but rather a natural spirit in the process of growing.

This also explains why tigers, though appearing sinister, possess an unusually clean aura.

"That's true, you're quite skilled too, but Tiger is really not simple. Even if I don't go all out, I can't beat him."

Li Lin laughed and said, "How will you know if you don't try?"

The white tiger chuckled... its tiger face could actually make a 'smiling' expression.

It's clearly a sarcastic remark.

Li Lin said nothing more, flicked his wrist, and unleashed a burst of sword energy.

The white tiger reacted quickly. Upon seeing the sword energy, it raised its enormous tiger paw, which was twice the size of Li Lin's head.

The sword energy struck the tiger's paw and immediately dissipated. The white tiger was about to laugh when it sensed something was wrong. Looking down, it discovered a red mark on its palm, from which blood was seeping out.

Ok?
Baihu was stunned. Was he... injured?

Taking advantage of its momentary daze, Li Lin swiftly switched the longsword to his left hand, while a short sword appeared in his right.

As soon as the Bone-Slaying Wine was obtained, five bolts of purple lightning struck down.

Thanks to the increase in spiritual energy, the lightning strike spell is faster than before.

The moment the five bolts of heavenly lightning formed, the white tiger finally reacted. It retreated rapidly, leaving only a blur.

The five bolts of lightning missed their mark and struck the ground, leaving five huge craters.

Looking at the charred pit, the white tiger's eyes, almost as big as a gong, flashed with horror.

But it wasn't over yet; Li Lin threw the longsword out with his left hand.

The longsword flew towards them, its trajectory subtly following a tracking arc. The white tiger opened its mouth and roared out with a deafening sound.

Visible ripples appeared in the air, and then the shockwave spread rapidly forward, sweeping up a huge cloud of dust and forming a wave like a tsunami that pressed down on Li Lin.

But at this moment, Li Lin had already retracted the Bone-Slaying Wine in his right hand into his sleeve.

He raised two fingers of his right hand together and pointed forward.

A large purple spear, entirely composed of spiritual energy, appeared in front of Li Lin's right arm.

The sky seemed to darken, with only this enormous spear thrusting towards the sonic 'tsunami' spewed out by the white tiger.

The two collided, and the tsunami shattered.

The tip of the spear was pressed against the white tiger's forehead.

Red blood flowed down the white fur.

The white tiger's eyes were filled with terror. After a long while, it asked, "What level is this spear intent at?"

Li Lin pointed two fingers at the white tiger's forehead and replied with a smile, "Grandmaster realm, is that good enough for Brother Tiger to notice?"
