Battling Records of the Chosen One Chapter 346 - Three Strongmen

Chapter 346: Three StrongmenTranslator: Flying Lines

As Vulture and Young Ke expected, in just one night, news about Lin Xun spread all over the Forbidden City fast, causing numerous comments and uproars.
Some people jokingly called Lin Xun the Youngest Patriarch of Aristocratic Family in the Forbidden City.
Certainly, there was another title full of stinging humor, the Most Lonely Aristocratic Leader in the Peaks!
The fact behind these jokes was that Lin Xun was really too young.
He was only in his teens. There was no other leader of aristocratic families got such a high position at this age.
Moreover, being alone, he as the successor of Lin Family was in such a pitiful situation. He just got a name without any wealth and human resources in a precarious situation.
All in all, Lin Xun’s name was sounded in the Forbidden City overnight. People enjoyed talking about his news, which made him popular. But his reputation was neither better nor worse.
…
Lin Xun didn’t know all this.
He had closed door practicing during these seven days.
Heart-cleansing Peak was peaceful in these days. All the chores and things were solved orderly by Vulture.
On the evening of the seventh day, Lin Zhong went to the third floor of Heart-cleansing Peak as usual. He needed to report many things to Lin Xun, so he came here every day.
Lin Zhong didn’t want to disturb Lin Xun as Lin Xun was still in the practicing room.
Seeing the bronze gate was closed as before, he was ready to leave.
At this moment, a dull sound hummed. The closed bronze gate was slowly opened.
Lin Zhong’s spirit was suddenly refreshed. Lin Xun finally came out!
He looked around and saw Lin Xun walking out.
To Lin Zhong’s surprise, compared with the past, Lin Xun’s temperament at present was more extraordinary. His dark eyes were deep and clear and he behaved calmly and sedately.
Immediately, Lin Zhong realized that Lin Xun’s cultivation was improved. He beamed and cheered, “Congratulations to your promotion to Heaven-gang Realm!”
Lin Xun smiled and asked, “Granddad Zhong, how long have I been here?”
“Seven days.”
Lin Xun was in a trance.
He didn’t expect that his cultivation was improved as overflowing water when he swallowed the root of Infant-shaped Snow Ginseng at this time.
Lin Xun keenly realized this promotion was totally different from the past. Not only his power, but also his body and soul had a comprehensive transformation!
All this made him forget the passing of time in his practice. Until now, he figured out that it took him seven days to advance.
Since this promotion took him a week of time, he harvested a lot. First, as he promoted himself to Heaven-gang Realm, the strength of Earth-gang realm in his body was transformed into Heaven-gang Realm perfectly. His spirit power was more than twice as strong as before.
At the same time, his body and soul had been further transformed and become stronger. Lin Xun had previously tested that ordinary weapons could hardly scratch his skin!
In his Sea of Consciousness, more than ten soul stars had been lit up this time. So there were 72 soul stars twinkling in his Sea of Consciousness at present. They shed gentle light and nourished his soul constantly.
All of these made Lin Xun’s spiritual perception improved a lot. He was able to detect all the information for ten thousands meters around!
This was Heaven-gang Realm.
By improving from Earth-gang Realm to Heaven-gang Realm, practitioners could understand the general trend of heaven and earth and perceive the meteorological phenomena in the world. This change was like a rebirth for a practitioner.
All his cultivation, soul and body’s transformation meant that he was accumulating strength for the next new stage, Sea Spirit Realm!
This was a process of building up momentum. The more profound his accumulation was, the more benefits he would obtain when breaking through to Sea Spirit Realm.
“Young master.”
Lin Zhong said, “There are many things going on these days when you practiced. I need to report them to you.”
“Tell then, Granddad Zhong,”
Lin Xun went downstairs.
“Seven days ago, according to your order, I contacted Shi Yu and finished my task.”
Lin Zhong followed Lin Xun while reporting to him.
“You’ve done it?”
Lin Xun was surprised.
“Yes, Childe Shi Yu had already publicized your reputation through spiritual light curtain in the Forbidden City. Now your name was being publicized everywhere in the Forbidden City.”
Lin Zhong explained.
Lin Xun smiled, “I didn’t expect that Shi Yu is so influential. I owed him much as he took the use of spiritual light curtain.”
Lin Zhong continued, “Childe Shi Yu also asked me to tell you that he is going to hold an auction in ten days. At that time, he will invite many top-class forces in the Forbidden City to participate. If you are interested, you can go at that time.”
Lin Xun nodded, “I see. Is there anything else?”
Lin Zhong replied, “In addition, Vulture has returned and recruited three powerful people to Heart-cleansing Peak. He said that you can have a look in person when you’ve finished practicing. ”
Lin Xun was stunned, “He only recruited three people?”
Lin Zhong responded with a strange look, “Yes, only three people. But according to my observation, none of them is a simple person.”
Lin Xun felt interested in them at once and said, “Let’s go and have a look now.”
However, Lin Zhong suggested, “Young master, let’s invite Vulture to accompany us. Those three strong men’s temper was strange.”
Lin Xun agreed.
Before long, Lin Xun saw Vulture sitting in the wheelchair, looking at the distant sea of clouds leisurely.
Young Ke was not here. She had been out of Heart-cleansing Peak almost all daytime in these days to spy on the four collateral forces of Lin Family.
“I’ve heard that you promised to go to Northlight Lin to fight with a young man named Lin Xuefeng?”
As soon as they met, Vulture uttered initially.
“Yes, I promised.”
Lin Xun nodded.
“Sea Spirit Realm man is not so easy to deal with. You could hardly win, so I think your decision was a little risky this time.”
Vulture said in a low voice.
“I know. But I just need to resist a hundred moves in this fight.”
Lin Xun smiled.
“Since you have decided, I won’t try to convince you. But I still have to remind you that the path of practicing is a long way to go. Don’t be hasty because of a duel. It will be detrimental to your practicing.”
Vulture warned.
Lin Xun knew this clearly and nodded seriously.
After all, Vulture was once a Tao Insight Realm strongman. Although his cultivation was almost the same as being abolished, he had much practice experience. His words couldn’t be wrong.
Thinking of this, Lin Xun suddenly felt a cognitive snap. He was too absorbed in practice to remember that there were many powerful people on Heart-cleansing Peak now.
Young Ke, Vulture, Zhu Laosan and even Lin Zhong were far ahead in their practicing road. If he could get their advice, he could definitely avoid many detours!
“Let’s go and meet three old friends.”
Vulture pushed the wheelchair by himself and went down the mountain.
He knew Lin Xun’s purpose for coming here without asking Lin Xun. He was knowledgeable that he could easily guess a lot of things.
…
Yanwu Field
It was a wide field built on a flat ground at the middle of Heart-cleansing Peak. It was originally a place for Lin clansmen to practice martial arts.
But in the past ten years, it had been abandoned, leaving only an empty field and lush weeds.
There were three figures in Yanwu Field at present.
A thin and worn-out man was lying on a rock, drinking and drunk.
Beside him, there was a big fat man on a pillow of a huge hammer, sleeping and drooling.
Not far away from them, another old man with gray hair and scarred face, who looked extremely ferocious, sat with legs crossed, eyes closed silently.
When Lin Xun arrived, he saw such a scene and couldn’t help being slightly shocked. Were these three strong people invited by Vulture?
Vulture introduced them with a smile, “The drinking one is called Ci Xue, the sleeping one is Yang Ling and the meditating one is Old Diao. All of them were veterans who had retired from the front battlefield. I had spent a lot of efforts to invite them to Heart-cleansing Peak.”
They were veterans?
Lin Xun thought for a moment, went up to them, cupped his hand and greeted, “Predecessors, nice to meet you. I’m Lin Xun.”
However, no one responded to him. They kept drinking, sleeping and meditating as if they hadn’t heard Lin Xun at all.
In other word, they ignored Lin Xun directly.
Lin Zhong’s heart missed a beat instantly. He looked at Lin Xun with some worry. He was afraid that Lin Xun would lose his temper.
However, Lin Xun didn’t think too much but just smiled. He turned to Vulture and said, “It seems that it’s not easy to get their recognition.”
“It’s true,” Vulture said with a smile, “They are so grumpy that I can only invite them back. It depends on you whether to let them stay here.”
Lin Xun nodded then, “I know that most talented people are arrogant like this. Otherwise, there would be little indifference between them and ordinary people?”
This sentence felt like a provocation.
However, no one took care of Lin Xun. It seemed that they wouldn’t make any response even if others abused them.
When Vulture heard this, he laughed, “That’s right. Do you have confidence to convince them?”
Lin Xun asked, “How can I convince them?”
“It’s simple,” Vulture added, “Whatever you do, as long as you get their approval, they will definitely bring you unexpected surprises in the future.”
Lin Xun immediately smiled, “You mean, no matter what I do?”
Vulture was startled. He guessed something, so the corner of his lips twitched, “Don’t overdo it.”
Lin Xun smiled more radiantly, “Don’t worry, they are all invited by you. How can I embarrass them?”
Vulture felt somehow wrong in his heart. He could not help but look at the three people in the distance anxiously. He murmured to himself that if they pretended to be too arrogant, they might pay a heavy price.
