Lin Xun was taken aback but soon returned to his senses.

Fang Linhan was probably referring to the Longevity Lands successors, who had appeared today using a Saint Treasure, the Longevity Palace, as their transportation. It was pulled by a nine-headed golden flood-dragon.

However, when Lin Xun had seen the group, he had not known who among them was the current generation saint of Longevity Land.

Yu Lingkong?

What a unique and memorable name.

Lin Xun asked, Is Yu Lingkong strong?

Fang Linhan very casually sat beside Lin Xun as his lips curved like a blade. Hes one of the top peerless heaven prides in the South Wonder World. He is famous throughout South Wonder World and is naturally no ordinary individual.

Famous throughout South Wonder World!

Lin Xun was surprised. That was indeed somewhat shocking.

The West Infinity World was said to be composed of several thousand provinces. Each province was essentially a small world of its own.

The South Wonder World was probably also comparable in size.

As such, it was easy to imagine how amazing Longevity Lands current generation saint was if he was famous throughout the entire South Wonder World!

The Yu Clan was an extremely famous great clan in the ancient era. You can imagine how terrifying its foundations are from how it has survived for countless years until now.

Yu Lingkong is a direct descendent of the Yu Clan, and his ancestor is a real Saint expert!

A rare sigh was heard from Fang Linhan before he said, Yu Lingkong was born with astonishing talent and displayed his incredible potential and foundations after joining Longevity Land.

He is now not only the saint of Longevity Land, but also one of the top younger-generation heaven prides in the South Wonder World who can stand shoulder to shoulder with our West Infinity Worlds Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms current generation saintess, Ji Xingyao!

Fang Linhans eyes shone radiantly as he continued, Someone like him is absolutely a true supreme heaven pride and is akin to a rising sun that can illuminate an entire world. Even in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, theres only a tiny handful of such unrivaled individuals.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows, feeling somewhat shocked.

Fang Linhan was definitely an incredible younger-generation genius. In spite of this, he was so full of praise for Longevity Lands Yu Lingkong, which showed how much more superior he was in Fang Linhans eyes.

Fang Linhan changed the topic and said, Of course, the Ancient Wasteland Domain is too vast, and no one can tell for sure how many more amazing heaven prides there are. However, Im certain that in the current era, Yu Lingkong definitely deserves one of the spots among the supreme heaven prides.

Lin Xun felt the same. After all, the Astral Imperial Clans Shaohao who he had seen on Zinuo Mountain Fallen Star Peak, was definitely one of these hidden supreme geniuses.

There were likely many unknown talents besides himself in the current era which showed the incredible resources and foundations of the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

No one could say for sure how many hidden geniuses there were in the world.

But one thing was certain. As the battle of the great age arrived, more and more heaven-defying individuals would appear in the Ancient Wasteland Domain!

Lin Xun could not help but ask, How does the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms saintess Ji Xingyao compare to Yu Lingkong?

It wasnt because he was overly curious, but because he understood that for him to stand out among the competition and attain the legendary Apex King Stage, there was no way he could avoid numerous opponents like Yu Xingkong and Ji Xingyao!

Fang Linhan contemplated for a while before he answered, Shes extremely mysterious, and no one knows what level her cultivation has currently reached. However, many cultivators, including myself, in the West Infinity World predict that she is definitely no weaker than Yu Lingkong!

He could not help but reveal a carefree smile as he continued, Do you know? Most cultivators from the West Infinity World believe that Ji Xongyao possesses the qualifications to be the leader of the West Infinity Worlds younger generation. This might just be a form of praise, but it undoubtedly proves that she is extremely extraordinary.

Lin Xun nodded as he inwardly sighed. The Ancient Wasteland Domain was an insane place filled with numerous hidden masters and heaven prides. The more he learned about it, the more astonished he felt.

It was no wonder the Ziyao Empire emperor had said that the Ancient Wasteland Domain was the stage of the younger-generation heaven prides. Only the true elites could lead and dominate the current era!

Right, Yu Lingkong probably appeared in the West Infinity World to pay Ji Xingyao a visit. If this is true, Yu Lingkong and Ji Xingyao will likely appear together at the Dao Lantern Festival in half a year. Looks like the festival is going to be quite exciting

Fang Linhan suddenly said as his eyes shone with anticipation.

Lin Xun was taken aback. Soon after, he asked in surprise, Are you also going to participate in the Dao Lantern Festival?

Fang Linhan replied with a question of his own, Arent you?

Lin Xun thought about it and shook his head. I would be happy to experience the Dao Lantern Festival if I could. However, Im not certain if Ill have the time to participate.

Fang Linhan chuckled and rose to his feet. Theres still a long time to go before the festival. However, dont forget that Im still waiting for our duel.

After saying this, he turned around and walked to his room.

Lin Xun felt helpless. Why was this guy so fixated on fighting him? What a battle fanatic.

Who was that? Hes so handsome and can probably give Senior Brother Yue Jianming a run for his money. Xia Xiaochongs face was filled with infatuation as tiny stars sparkled in her large eyes.

Earlier, she had been staring at Fang Linhan like a lovestruck girl while he had been conversing with Lin Xun.

Now, she was openly praising Fang Linhan in front of Lin Xun, and even said that he could give Yue Jianming a run for his money. This made Lin Xun feel the impulse to smack her.

What was that supposed to mean?

She had remarked before that he could not compare to Yue Jianming and was now implying that Fang Linhan was just as handsome. Wasnt this insinuating that he wasnt as handsome as Fang Linhan as well?

Lin Xun displayed an unfriendly expression and headed outside the inn with an icy snort.

Big Brother Lin Xun, where are you going?

Xia Xiaochong hurriedly caught up to him.

Lin Xun said in a peeved voice, For a walk!

Ill come along.

Xia Xiaochong cheered.

Youre sothick!

Lin Xun sighed. He wasnt hiding that he was in a bad mood. Shouldnt she at least try to spare a thought for his feelings? But no, she was completely oblivious and was even celebrating. He was genuinely speechless.

Of course, Lin Xun wasnt actually going out for a stroll. He had won 5220 low-grade aeth essences from achieving twenty-nine consecutive victories in the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena today.

This was equivalent to roughly fifty-two mid-grade aeth essences!

It would be considered a pretty hefty sum for any cultivator.

However, it was far from enough for Lin Xun!

After leaving a large store, he was left with a measly five mid-tier Spirit Accumulation Jades, two mid-grade aeth essences, and twenty low-grade aeth essences

The five mid-tier Spirit Accumulation Jades would probably be devoured by the God Devourer Insects in mere moments!

This made Lin Xun sigh again. A person wouldnt understand how expensive it was to manage a household until they did it!

It was hard to believe that a group of grain-sized God Devourer Insects was already putting him under such financial pressure. How was he going to survive in the Ancient Wasteland Domain without money?

Earn money!

Lin Xun inwardly gritted his teeth and rubbed his palms together. He had decided to return to the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena to score big again tomorrow!

Pressure was a strong push factor. At the very least, Lin Xun currently felt exceptionally motivated.

What would the Ziyao Empire cultivators think if they were told that Lin Xun had fallen to a state where he had to worry about money and be forced to earn it in an arena?

The next morning, Lin Xun set off before daybreak.

He needed to make use of every second he had to earn the dough. Time was money a.k.a. aeth essence. In other words, every second he wasted was a piece of enticing aeth essence!

Big Brother Lin, something seems to be off about you today.

Xia Xiaochong was puzzled. She felt that Lin Xun was akin to a starving wolf that was about to go hunting with a scary look in his eyes.

Is that so?

Lin Xun was brimming with energy and motivation. However, he sighed and said, I have no choice, I was forced. Mmm yes, I was forced

Upon arriving at the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena, Lin Xuns eyes were quickly drawn by several new banners with content that would make anyones blood boil in excitement.

A mysterious youngster appears out of nowhere and has achieved twenty-nine successive victories, shocking everyone! Hes a true dark horse!

Who is this mysterious youngster? Will he be able to break Cheng Lixues record? Friends, for more information, quickly come to the Silver Pheasant Arena. You cant miss out on this thrilling event!

Mysterious youngster? Hahaha, Big Brother Lin Xun, the title they gave you sucks. Xia Xiaochong was greatly amused and could not help but laugh.

The corners of Lin Xuns mouth twitched. He never imagined that he would be used as a marketing tactic by the Silver Pheasant Martial Arena.

Lin Xun inwardly cursed, They used me without asking for my permission. The Silver Pheasant Martial Arena boss is such a crafty person!

However, for the sake of his great money-making plan, he decided to bear with it for the moment.

A certain idea began to form in his head.

It might not be bad if these s could attract stronger opponents. That would allow him to better polish his martial dao.

After all, opponents who were too weak were just boring.

Young Master, why are you here so early?

At the entrance, the attendant called Dong Ba rushed to welcome them with a happy and surprised face, grinning from ear to ear like a blooming sunflower.

Lin Xun instructed in a domineering manner, Cut the crap and dont waste any more time. Right, prepare enough aeth essence for me!

Lin Xun did not wish to waste any more time because time was aeth essence! He walked in as his fighting spirit and blood began to burn in anticipation.

Dong Ba was dumbstruck. The Young Master seems to have become a different person. I wonder what kind of stimulation he received?
