Chapter 460: Message for Gathering of Geniuses

"…Lin Hu, do you really believe that I won't be roasting you?" Lin Xiao cracked his fist as he was thoroughly tempted to roast the dragon right now. Eating a dragon might be able to help him advance.

Lin Hu was speechless. "idiot."

"You're the idiot one!"

"I mean you're too strong as in there are no beast that can be your match." Lin Hu scoffed. Hell, even magical beast rank 4 ran away because Lin Xiao could freeze them. It often made him wonder whether Lin Xiao was truly of lake element or other elements.

Lin Xiao was feeling a bit pissed off with Lin Hu's words.

Was it his mistake that he was so strong? He was only training, alright? Also, there were many people who were already at Nascent Soul Stage when they came to this ancient battlefield.

How could he be called strong when he was compared to those people?

"Are you telling me that I should challenge Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators now?" Lin Xiao asked with narrowed eyes.

"You might die."

"You…."

"Nascent Soul Stage cultivators are strong because they can use the power of their soul and create their projection. It'll start from their soul is a baby up until their soul is the same age as their real body." Lin Hu passed a look at Lin Xiao.

"Their cultivation rank depends on the soul projection that they can make. Baby to teenagers meant that their cultivation is only at Early Nascent Soul Stage (1 to 3), adult but not more than 2/3 of their real age meant that they're at Middle Nascent Soul Stage (4 to 6), and lastly nearing the same age as them until the same is the Advance Nascent Soul Stage.

While it might be rare, if your soul is too powerful, you can directly skip a rank or two. Or the opposite, if you're too weak, you won't be able to form Nascent Soul Stage."

"…I really want to beat you up. Is my soul weak?" Lin Xiao furrowed his brows and inspected his consciousness. It was vast, so vast that Lin Hu was always swimming around from here to there. Even if the dragon was using his fastest speed, it would still take him an hour to circle around.

Lin Hu's lips quivered. Actually, it was the opposite. Lin Xiao's soul was too strong that the amount of Qi that he needed to support forming the Soul Projection was much more than what other cultivators needed.

He was not sure how high Lin Xiao would reach when he grew up in the future.

But one thing for sure…. Lin Xiao would not be at Nascent Soul Stage 1.

Lin Xiao was about to ask for more when he heard a sound rang in his ear. "All cultivators gather in Shui Yan City within 3 months' time."

At the same time, the projection of a map appeared before Lin Xiao. There was a red dot, which signified his location and an X that signified the location he had to head to.

Looking at the map, Lin Xiao was dumbfounded. He turned to look at Lin Hu. "is it really possible to speak to countless people?"

"It's just an automatic message." Lin Hu was speechless by Lin Xiao's lack of knowledge. "This is an ancient battlefield, an area that's separated from the mainland. In other word, this place alone is a treasure that's controlled by countless cultivators. If they want to control the cultivators here, it'll be difficult but transmitting message should be easy."

Lin Xiao was astounded. He had already guessed that the 20 Years Ancient Battlefield was located at different plane. But he didn't expect that it would be a treasure.

"The power who control them…."

"Most of them are only at Nascent Soul Stage." Lin Hu passed a look at Lin Xiao. "What? Do you really think that they'll be at higher cultivation level?"

"…Yes."

"Nascent Soul Stage is different than Golden Core Stage. At this stage, your talent meant nothing as what important is your comprehension. In order for your soul to grow, you need to have high understanding of your cultivation path and also high understanding of your chosen element, skills, and your own heart."

Lin Hu went silent when he talked about that. Lin Xiao's path from the very beginning had been chosen for him but what kind of Emperor he wanted to be, it was all his decision.

In other word, it was still a path that belonged solely to him.

"Well, I guess I should hurry and go to that Shui Yan City. There's still 3 months but man, the distance is so long."

Lin Xiao was located far away from the city because he had just exited the Secret Region and gained some treasures. Of course, most of them were not of use to him since he was already at Golden Core Stage 9.

He would just kept them away and probably gave them to those who needed it back in Xiao Hu Kingdom.

Swish!

Traversing the forest, Lin Xiao used this chance to train his skill. Over this period of time, he also often spent his time to train and develop a unique skill because it was the only method for him to grow faster.

By combining what he knew and also his understanding, he grew faster.
