I, the Holy Son of Yaoguang, am invincible in the world / Even my beautiful master is invincible.

Where is Lin Ju?

Lin Xiao asked with some curiosity.

“Well… Chief Lin returned to the underworld yesterday,” Zhou Xingshan said, his expression somewhat unnatural.

"I see! Let's go then! Let's continue our journey to Tianmo Mountain!"

Lin Xiao said simply.

Before setting off, Lin Xiao silently used the Heavenly Calculation Tool to re-analyze the situation, and the palpitation that had been weighing on his heart had disappeared.

This suggests that most likely no one will ambush him anymore.

It seems that the person behind the scenes only scratched the surface this time and did not intend to carry out the ambush. Of course, it is also possible that they are plotting a new crisis.

Lin Xiao cultivated as he walked.

He could multitask when he was in the lower realm, so he can certainly do it now.

This time, I obtained a considerable amount of primordial essence.

Lin Xiao refined the techniques one after another, and his physical body's cultivation level steadily improved.

The essence of the primordial embryo is quite extraordinary.

A single strand of primordial essence can elevate his physical body to a higher realm, though this is because his physical body is still at the level of a demon god.

If one reaches the level of a true demon god, the help will be much less.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more demanding and rigorous the requirements for cultivation resources become.

The Mysterious Mirror has once again shown unusual activity.

While cultivating, Lin Xiao took out the Profound Mirror and said with a smile, "My Duanmu missed me."

"You smooth-talking Xiao Lin, if you were in the God Realm and dared to flirt with this immortal lord, I could send you flying from the south to the north of the God Realm with a flick of my finger."

Duanmu Xianjun put on a fierce appearance.

"Immortal Lord?"

Lin Xiao's heart stirred.

The other party unknowingly revealed their identity further.

"Let's get down to business. How effective was the method I taught you?" asked Immortal Lord Duanmu.

"It works great. I have a friend who sings terribly, and it's driving Yu Ming crazy," Lin Xiao said without batting an eye.

"That friend of yours, could it be yourself?"

"Immortal Lord Duanmu asked suspiciously."

"Hahaha...How could that be?"

You seem guilty.

"Woman, stop your damn paranoia."

"..."

"..."

Time passed day by day.

Lin Xiao's cultivation progress is also steadily increasing.

Unbeknownst to him, his physical body had already reached the eighth level of True Demon God, and he was about to catch up with his cultivation level.

Of course, he didn't forget to take advantage of loopholes.

Every few days, she would spend a night alone with Yu Ming.

At those times, Zhou Xingshan would secretly suppress his hearing and silently cultivate.

[You have successfully angered Yu Ming. Reward: 20 years of cultivation (doubled)!]

You have successfully angered Yu Ming, rewarding you with two Demon Heart Fruits (doubled!)

Chapter 643 Desert City Sand Tiger

Two weeks later, Yu Ming passed away with a look of relief on his face.

When he left, his expression was peaceful, and he felt relaxed after escaping from suffering.

In contrast, Lin Xiao still felt somewhat unsatisfied.

It's rare to find a kindred spirit, and I always feel it would be such a waste to just kill them.

However, Yu Ming's mental state truly collapsed.

There are no more rewards to offer, like a bald sheep.

Sometimes, he would suddenly foam at the mouth and have convulsions.

Lin Xiao carefully calculated that Yu Ming had provided a total of two hundred years of cultivation rewards, which allowed him to reach the highest level of the True Demon God realm.

He was only one step away from becoming a Heavenly Demon God.

In addition, he was rewarded with dozens of strands of the Essence of the Primordial Embryo, which allowed Lin Xiao's physical body to reach the peak of the True Demon God level.

Then there's the "Demon Heart Fruit".

A total of ten Demon Heart Fruits were awarded as a reward.

This thing cannot improve cultivation level, but it can improve a person's physique, comprehension, etc., making it a precious treasure that increases the upper limit of growth potential.

Lin Xiao refined five of them.

He could feel that his physical condition, comprehension, and other aspects had indeed improved.

Originally, it was a 1-fold increase in comprehension, but now it seems to have increased to 100 times. Looking at it this way, the overall improvement is actually not that significant.

This is related to his very high potential.

Lin Xiao gave the remaining five to Zhou Xingshan, who silently protected him all the way, even fighting to the death without retreating, fulfilling his duty to the utmost.

They are worthy of these five Demon Heart Fruits.

After refining the five Demon Heart Fruits, Zhou Xingshan clearly gained a great deal of benefit.

His comprehension increased nearly a thousandfold.

Physical fitness has also improved significantly.

He seemed to have undergone a complete transformation, which brought a hint of excitement to the usually cold and aloof Zhou Xingshan's face.

For him, improving his cultivation level was far less important than improving his physical constitution and comprehension, as the latter determined his growth ceiling.

Cultivation levels can be achieved entirely through arduous practice.

However, it is actually very difficult to improve one's physical constitution and comprehension.

Zhou Xingshan was clearly not a person who was good at expressing his feelings. He didn't say many words of thanks, but kept his gratitude in his heart.

A thousand words of gratitude are not as meaningful as a single act of fighting to the death.

The vast desert is truly boundless.

After traveling for several more days, the outline of the city finally appeared in Lin Xiao's field of vision, and green trees began to appear on the ground, with snow-capped mountains faintly visible in the distance.

Along the way, we have encountered ambushes and witnessed terrifying desert storms. Now, seeing cities and verdant mountains, we have a unique feeling.

Spiritual practice is like reading.

The roads we've traveled, the people we've met, and the things we've experienced will all contribute to our accumulation and growth.

Before Lin Xiao set off, the Heavenly Tiger Demon King had prepared a map for him, but he didn't take it out to look at it. He had already memorized the map.

The city is called "Mo City".

Thirty thousand li west of Mo City lies Tianmo Mountain.

Upon entering Mo City, Lin Xiao was somewhat disappointed to find neither the pretentious demon princes nor the harassment of respectable women in the streets.

If you can neither show off and slap someone in the face nor play the hero and save a damsel in distress, life always feels like something is missing.

The family of the Heavenly Tiger Demon King is located in Desert City. They are the largest force in Desert City and are called the "Sand Tiger Demon Clan," a group of fierce tigers living in the desert.

The Sand Tiger Demons clearly knew in advance that Lin Xiao would be arriving, and not long after Lin Xiao entered the city, Sand Tiger Demons came out to greet him.

Almost all the high-ranking members of the clan were present.

The chieftain of the Sand Tiger Demon Clan is the younger brother of the Heavenly Tiger Demon King, and his name is "Qiuhu Demon King".

The two brothers clearly have a good relationship.

One focuses on internal affairs, the other on external affairs.

While the Heavenly Tiger Demon King was waging wars abroad, the Hill Tiger Demon King managed the Sand Tiger Demon Clan.

Compared to the Heavenly Tiger Demon King, the Qiu Tiger Demon King seemed to be more worldly-wise. He was very thoughtful and solemn in terms of etiquette, yet he was able to ensure that Lin Xiao's identity would not be revealed.

Enter the mansion of the Sand Tiger Demon Clan.

The entire mansion has a rather rugged style, with few green plants. The palace and courtyard walls are built with unique "sandstone".

"Crown Prince, you must have had a long and arduous journey westward..."

In the evening, Qiu Hu Demon King prepared a banquet to welcome Lin Xiao back.

Aside from Lin Xiao, those present were some high-ranking members of the Sand Tiger Demon Clan who had come to entertain guests, and even more so, a number of graceful young women dressed in revealing clothing, whose appearances were quite out of place.

Amidst the singing and dancing, and the fine wine and delicacies, Lin Xiao was initially quite interested in watching the dance of the alien demon race.

Then he heard Qiu Hu, the Demon King, earnestly introducing the origins of those women.

Girls from the Black Scorpion Clan, girls from the Spotted Snake Demon Clan, centipedes, and even worse, maggots and other demonic creatures...

Lin Xiaoren was almost numb from listening to it.

He immediately said he was feeling unwell and hurriedly left the banquet.

Indeed, despite the different landscapes and shared aesthetic views, cultural differences remain.
