The Heavenly Court possesses the Haotian Mirror, a top-grade spiritual treasure, capable of constantly monitoring the Three Realms, surveying the celestial cycles, and investigating intelligence. It can detect the actions of many rebellious demons, allowing for the dispatch of appropriate troops based on the information, ensuring minimal errors.
However, the incident with the Seven Monsters of Mount Mei was somewhat strange, as they failed to detect any information about Yuan Hong, leading to the loss of countless Heavenly soldiers and generals. The casualties were heavy, with even a Golden Immortal dying.
Lin Xuan had also pondered this secretly, believing it might be related to Yuan Hong's identity as a Tongbi Ape-Monkey, perhaps the Four Great Monkey Kings naturally possess the ability to shield themselves from celestial divination.
However, this didn't affect his career as a Heavenly general. He continued to diligently carry out numerous tasks, accumulating more merits to exchange for abundant resources.
At the Xuanxian realm, ordinary resources had minimal effect on his improvement. He needed to exchange for more valuable resources.
Therefore, aside from the once-a-millennium expedition, he often took on additional tasks, descending to the lower realms alone to slay demons and eliminate monsters, particularly powerful Xuanxian-level demons.
During these descents, he also gained an understanding of the grand scheme of the Hong Huang universe, especially the situation among the human race.
After the Witch-妖 Calamity, the human race's ascension to the role of the universe's protagonist was unstoppable.
Recently, he heard that among the human race, a descendant of the Fuxi clan, at a young age, has led the human race to achieve countless great feats!
"It seems the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors has begun."
"The first Human Emperor, the Fuxi clan..."
Lin Xuan knew, of course, who the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were. They were the most important figures among the human race.
Nüwa Saint's brother, Fuxi, severed his past, reincarnated among the human race, and eventually used the River Chart and Luo Script, held by Kunpeng, to achieve Daohood, becoming the Human Emperor, paving the way for the human race's dominance over the universe!
Every subsequent Human Emperor and Emperor was blessed with unparalleled fortune, carrying the immense Dao Luck of humanity, destined to become top-tier powerhouses, unstoppable by anyone.
However...
"These are none of my business. I can't get involved."
Lin Xuan didn't pay much attention to this. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were of such a high status, they were already being watched by the Saints, used to scheme for fortune!
To try to get involved, to claim those positions of importance, or to grab benefits, was simply seeking death. Even the Jade Emperor wouldn't be qualified, let alone a mere Heavenly general!
He could better spend that time fantasizing by completing more tasks. This was real, tangible gain.
"Recently, I've been completing tasks a little too frequently. Xuanxian-level demon-beasts in the lower realms are becoming scarce."
In the Heavenly General's Hall, Lin Xuan looked at the list of tasks, feeling a bit sentimental.
In order to quickly obtain more merit points, he diligently accepted tasks, truly a workaholic among Heavenly generals. He had personally slain many troublesome Xuanxian-level demon-beasts, earning considerable fame among the Heavenly generals, even gaining the nickname, "Demon-Slayer Heavenly General!"
Just looking at this nickname, one could see how many demons he had personally killed. Many Heavenly soldiers had heard of his reputation and held him in awe!
Demon-Slayer Heavenly General Lin Xuan, truly a ruthless figure among Heavenly generals.
"I've accumulated over three million merit points. I should be able to exchange for that thing now."
Lin Xuan looked at his accumulated merit points and nodded. He had been saving for so long. It was time to spend it.
Then, he directly spent three million merit points to exchange for a Purple-Veined Peach!
That's right, a single Purple-Veined Peach cost three million merit points, a genuine exorbitant price!
But its effects were truly worth it. The Heavenly Court Peaches were renowned throughout the universe, the most famous innate spiritual fruits of the Heavenly Court. Moreover, Peaches were classified into different levels. Among them, the Purple-Veined Peach was the most valuable. Consuming one could grant eternal life!
Furthermore, Peaches themselves contained an enormous amount of gentle spiritual energy, making them one of the best resources for refining the body. Lin Xuan did not hesitate to exchange for it. Only such an innate spiritual fruit could make his body cultivation advance by leaps and bounds.
All those tasks he had completed were for this moment of reward.
After the exchange, he happily took the Purple-Veined Peach back to his own cave abode and began to cultivate in seclusion.
Gazing at the Peach, exuding its alluring fragrance, he couldn't wait to savor its taste. He quickly devoured it in a few bites. Instantly, an immense amount of spiritual energy surged through his abdomen, bursting like stars, washing over his blood and flesh!
Lin Xuan activated his Indestructible Golden Body, radiating a dazzling golden light. His golden blood, like a sea, rapidly refined the spiritual energy of the Purple-Veined Peach.
Guided by the Indestructible Golden Body, not a bit of the boundless spiritual energy was wasted. His physical body was transforming and strengthening at a visible rate. In an instant, he had ascended a realm, reaching the mid-stage Xuanxian Realm!
But that was only the beginning. The Purple-Veined Peach contained too much spiritual energy. Subsequently, his physical energy continued to rise.
When the refinement was nearly complete, his physical energy surged again, reaching the late-stage Xuanxian Realm!
The terrifying physical aura spread, causing his entire cave abode to tremble. If he hadn't intentionally controlled it, even the earth wouldn't be able to bear his body and would naturally shatter!
"The Purple-Veined Peach truly did not disappoint me."
"With my late-stage Xuanxian Indestructible Golden Body, even ordinary Golden Immortals would find it hard to injure me! To kill me would be even more difficult! "
"Combined with my numerous talent trait attributes, I could even contend with a Golden Immortal, at least ensuring self-preservation!"
Lin Xuan couldn't hide the excitement on his face. After so many tasks, his efforts led to a sudden breakthrough, a dramatic increase in strength.
Now, even without the Chixiao Sword, his strength surpassed that of General Chen from back then. He confidently believed that he was virtually invincible within the Xuanxian Realm, capable of fighting ordinary Golden Immortals, at least to the point of self-preservation!
In the process of slaying Xuanxian-level demon-beasts, he not only continuously accumulated merit points, but also accumulated quite a few good talent trait attributes, which also significantly enhanced his underlying strength!
The attributes from Xuanxian-level demon-beasts were completely different from those of demon-beasts below the True Immortal Realm. Blue attributes were very common, red attributes were not scarce, and he even obtained a golden attribute!
Thinking about this, Lin Xuan couldn't help but look at the information of the new, powerful attributes on his panel.
