When walking out of the registration office, Ye Lin's expression was as calm as a gentle breeze.
Although the old senior Xiao Jintian had left in anger, he had left behind a storage ring filled with many cultivation resources, as well as several Nascent Soul Stage teleportation talismans and attack talismans.
How could he not be pleased to have an old senior shower him with resources?
After leaving the registration office, he went straight to the Mission Hall to submit his three Hell-grade missions.
When the disciple in charge of registration and the surrounding Demon Suppressing Guards saw that he had actually completed the three most challenging missions in just four days, and that his demon-slaying points had directly surged by over two hundred thousand, everyone cast looks of envy and awe at him.
From then on, titles like “Tianyuan Demon Suppressing Division's Number One Ruthless Man” and “Evil Spirit Reaper” were bestowed upon him.
Ye Lin didn't care much about this. He temporarily kept the two hundred thousand-plus demon-slaying points, planning to use them later when selecting Golden Core Stage spiritual materials.
“I promised Lin Kuo back then that I'd treat him to a meal when I returned from my mission. I wonder if he's currently in the Demon Suppressing Division?”
Ye Lin muttered to himself on his way back from the Mission Hall.
Lin Kuo was the squad leader who had led him during the freshman trial, and also the colleague who had guided him when he selected the Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Qi.
He was originally going to treat the guy to a meal that day, but Lin Kuo said he was busy going on a date with his fiancée, so Ye Lin had said he would treat him after returning from his mission.
Returning to the front hall of the Demon Suppressing Division, Ye Lin asked the manager as well as several colleagues who had a good relationship with Lin Kuo. The result was always the same: Lin Kuo had never returned since the day he left the Demon Suppressing Division.
However, that guy had requested five days of leave, and with one day remaining of his time off, Ye Lin decided to come back to the Demon Suppressing Division tomorrow or the day after to find him.
Walking out of the Demon Suppressing Division, he saw that it was still early, only around noon.
Therefore, Ye Lin planned to return to his Cave Dwelling No. 1 at the Cultivation Academy first. Once he finished taking stock of his harvest from this trip, he would challenge the senior students in the top ten of the Outer Academy to advance to an Inner Academy disciple.
In truth, the small benefits of the Cultivation Academy—such as the few hundred low-grade spirit stones per month and the cultivation methods and spell training in the first three floors of the Outer Academy's Library of Scriptures—meant absolutely nothing to him.
There were only three things he truly cared about regarding the Cultivation Academy. First, the promotion of his status could grant him a boost in cultivation speed. For instance, his current status as the Eldest Senior Brother of the Outer Academy's newcomers increased his cultivation speed by 35%.
Second, after completing a year of cultivation, academy disciples would be dispatched to guard the Demon Abyss. This was what he valued most, as he could obtain massive benefits from killing evil spirits.
Third, the Cultivation Academy controlled the vast majority of cultivation resources and served as the fastest path of advancement for all cultivators without any background. Since they could advance like crazy just by killing evil spirits, no path was more suitable for him than this one.
On his way back to the academy, countless new disciples looked at him with either admiration or awe. Some bold female disciples even stood tall and swayed their bodies.
Ye Lin paid no heed to them. After returning to Cave Dwelling No. 1, he willed himself into the Sovereign Heaven of the Desolate Ancient Dao Pagoda.
Sitting cross-legged on the dojo, he opened his game panel without hesitation to check his Luck Value.
【Luck Value: 16,506
Destiny Level: First-Tier Son of Destiny
Description: One of the nine Destinies of the Heavenly Desolation Continent. Every additional 10,000 points of Luck Value will increase the Destiny Level by one tier.】
“So at the Son of Destiny level, it takes ten thousand points of Luck Value to advance by one tier?”
After reading the description on the game panel, Ye Lin had a general idea. It was perfectly reasonable that luck became harder to upgrade the higher the tier.
Once he finished his current tasks, he would continue seeking out evil spirits to unleash his “strictest fatherly love,” and his luck would surely soar once more.
Having checked his luck, Ye Lin turned his attention to the three new talents he had picked up.
They were Su Mo's Saint-grade Gold Spiritual Root, and two quasi-immortal-grade talents dropped by the dungeon illusions: Crimson Flame Physique and Regeneration Physique.
There was nothing much to say about the Saint-grade Gold Spiritual Root; he directly used the trait 【Talent Forging Pool】 to fuse it into his Chaos Spiritual Root.
But the foundation of the Chaos Spiritual Root was too powerful. A single Saint-grade Gold Spiritual Root was not enough to upgrade it from Earth-grade to Heaven-grade.
After the fusion, it merely made the Chaos Spiritual Root absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth slightly faster.
Ye Lin didn't dwell on this, because besides the trait 【Talent Forging Pool】, he also possessed the natural treasure, the ‘Cauldron of Creation’.
As long as he had enough spirit stones or energy crystals, his Chaos Spiritual Root could still be upgraded rapidly.
Leaving the Spiritual Root aside, Ye Lin focused on the Crimson Flame Physique and the Regeneration Physique.
Both were branch talents of the Phoenix bloodline. The Crimson Flame Physique granted a greater affinity to the fire attribute, making it easier to control flames and boosting the power of fire-based attacks by more than tenfold.
As for the Regeneration Physique, while it couldn't compare to Nirvana, it allowed him to consume spiritual energy to regenerate flesh and blood, making it a decent auxiliary healing-type constitution.
After some thought, he decided to use his trait to fuse these two constitutions with the ‘Circulating Heaven Stellar Physique’.
After all, one constitution was enough; having too many would make them impractical to manage. In any case, the talents in the 【Talent Forging Pool】 were guaranteed to fuse successfully with a 100% success rate, and whichever emerged stronger after the fusion would become his constitution.
“Rumble!”
As the trait was activated, the familiar phantom cauldron manifested instantly, swallowing all three constitutions in one gulp.
Finally, with a loud bang, he obtained his new constitution.
In the end, the ‘Circulating Heaven Stellar Physique’ prevailed, successfully devouring and merging with the Crimson Flame Physique and the Regeneration Physique.
After the devouring and fusion, the attributes of the ‘Circulating Heaven Stellar Physique’ were as follows:
【Constitution: Circulating Heaven Stellar Physique
Grade: Quasi-Immortal-grade
Traits: Contains the Saint-grade divine abilities ‘Overturning Rivers and Seas’ and ‘Blood Curse Heavenly Pupil’.
Quasi-immortal-grade divine ability ‘Rebirth through Fire’.
Defense and recovery capabilities increased by 40 times.】
Compared to the previous ‘Circulating Heaven Stellar Physique’, the new constitution gained the quasi-immortal-grade divine ability ‘Rebirth through Fire’, which essentially absorbed the characteristics of those two Phoenix clan constitutions, granting more than tenfold fire control and regeneration abilities.
Not only that, but the constitution's defense and recovery boosts had also increased from the original 31-fold to 40-fold.
“To improve by this much is quite decent.”
Nodding in satisfaction, Ye Lin waved his hand, taking out the drop of Divine Phoenix Origin Essence Blood, 1,000 jin of ordinary Phoenix essence blood, and the beam of stellar light he had obtained from the new dungeon.
First was the Divine Phoenix Origin Essence Blood. Its description stated that absorbing it gave a chance to obtain the bloodline of the Phoenix Clan, with a random quality.
“If one drop only gives a chance to obtain the bloodline, then what if I absorb a thousand drops? How will you counter that?”
Looking at the mysterious Divine Phoenix Origin Essence Blood in his hand, which contained terrifying energy, Ye Lin activated the trait 【Random Replication】 without any hesitation.
