Lin Chen slightly raised his hand, pointing the tip of the fire sword at the green monster.
"Fire Art - Scorch!"
In an instant, the scorching flames left the Two-Yin Sword and flew towards the Scaly-Skinned Demon at an extremely fast speed.
"Boom…"
The space inside the room was limited, and the Scaly-Skinned Demon couldn't dodge. Its body suddenly burst into flames, and the raging fire completely engulfed it. The extreme high temperature caused it immense pain.
The Soul Seed inherent to Fire Magic provided a six-fold amplification, and combined with the Two-Yin Sword's five-fold basic amplification, Lin Chen's Fire Magic possessed thirty times the destructive power.
It was merely the most basic, entry-level Fire Magic, yet it achieved the power of High-Level Magic.
"Bang…"
In the blink of an eye, the green Scaly-Skinned Demon turned charred black and collapsed to the ground.
The Scaly-Skinned Demon was dead, but the raging flames on its body continued to burn. How could the extreme fire easily extinguish? Lin Chen waved his hand, and the scorching flames suddenly left the Scaly-Skinned Demon's corpse, dissipating into the World.
The charred outer skin suddenly cracked open, slowly spreading from the back to the head and neck, gradually revealing the employer's skin.
The Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon nearby, having witnessed the destructive power of Lin Chen's magic, immediately rushed towards the window.
Noticing the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon's objective, Lin Chen's lips curled into a slight smile.
"Want to run? Did you ask me first?"
The Two-Yin Sword glowed with a dark spirit ring, and Lin Chen vanished from his original spot. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon.
"Mind Control - Mind Wall!"
The silver-white star map was lit up again, and a void force instantly formed a void wall, blocking Lin Chen's front.
"Bang…"
The rushing Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon tried to brake suddenly, but it was already too late. Lin Chen's appearance was too sudden, and the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon crashed head-on into the Mind Wall, falling to the ground.
How could Lin Chen easily let go of such a good opportunity? Before the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon could react, the temperature inside the room sharply increased, and Lin Chen's Two-Yin Sword was once again enveloped in raging flames.
"Fire Art - Scorch!"
The scorching flames rapidly flew towards the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon. In a breath, the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon was engulfed by the raging fire.
"Bang…"
Moments later, the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon was charred black and collapsed to the ground. The scorching flames were once again retracted by Lin Chen.
At this moment, a faint light flew towards Lin Chen, merging into the Two-Yin Sword in his hand.
"Not bad, a small profit!" Lin Chen muttered to himself, the complete Spirit Core brought him a slight sense of joy.
Although the bounty for this quest wasn't much, a complete War General Level Spirit Core was enough to make up for the difference.
The charred skin on the Scaly-Skinned Mother Demon's body peeled away, revealing human skin. Lin Chen immediately picked up the blanket from the bed and covered her body.
Lingling also entered the room and saw the blanket on the hostess's body. Lingling was quite satisfied in her heart. Although Lin Chen was a bit lustful, he still had a bottom line.
Lingling then dialed 120. Not long after, an ambulance arrived. The two explained the situation and then left. The subsequent matters had nothing to do with them.
…
It was getting late, so the two found a hotel nearby, planning to rest for a night.
The hotel had a good environment and was considered the best business hotel in the vicinity. The two successfully booked two rooms and returned to their respective rooms.
Lin Chen, as usual, washed up, but then heard the doorbell. He opened the door and saw Lingling.
Lingling was wearing a white bathrobe, her hair wet and draped over her shoulders, evidently having just showered, like Lin Chen.
Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Lingling rolled her eyes at Lin Chen and complained, "You still have the nerve to say that! You're such an incompetent master. You always say you don't have time. Today, I finally got a chance to catch you. Let's see how you explain yourself now!"
Lin Chen smiled awkwardly. He was indeed inconsistent in his teaching. He brought Lingling into the room and immediately asked, "How's your recent cultivation progress?"
Lingling walked to the sofa and slowly sat down, leaning against it, giving off a lazy feeling.
"Not great, the cultivation speed is too slow. I only reached Level 43 two days ago!" Lingling said.
Lin Chen was stunned when he heard this. Lingling had innate full spirit power. After consuming the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju, her spirit power level increased by fourteen levels, directly reaching Level 24.
The Full Magic World had abundant spirit power, and cultivation speed was extremely fast. Combined with the residual medicinal power of the Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju hidden in her body, in just over a year, Lingling had advanced nineteen levels, reaching Level 43 Spirit Ancestor at the age of ten. If she were on the Douluo Continent, she would definitely be a once-in-a-million genius.
Such a fast cultivation efficiency, in Lingling's mouth, became
too slow.
You should know that before Lin Chen was sixteen, he spent a full thirteen years cultivating to Level 53 Spirit King. Compared to Lingling, his was truly slow!
"Big sis, are you kidding me? This is still slow?" Lin Chen said, speechless.
Lingling pouted her small mouth and said, "Isn't this slow? What level are you now?"
Lin Chen slapped his forehead. He said helplessly, "I'm 19 this year. How old are you? Comparing yourself to me? There's no comparability at all!"
"Is there no way to speed up cultivation?" Lingling asked with a pout.
"No, cultivating too fast is not a good thing. It can easily lead to an unstable foundation!" Lin Chen said directly.
Lingling didn't have the Yin Yang Art, nor did she have Qiu'er's assistance. Her cultivation relied entirely on ordinary meditation methods. Having such a cultivation speed was already very rare. As long as she cultivated step by step, she would be able to cultivate to Spirit Saint in less than three years. By the time she awakened her magic at sixteen, Lingling would at least be a Spirit Douluo close to a Titled Douluo.
If she wanted to speed up her cultivation now, she would only be sacrificing her future by attaching spirit rings prematurely. However, Lingling's mental force was too low. If she absorbed spirit rings now, she probably wouldn't even be able to absorb the most ordinary ten-thousand-year spirit ring.
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Lingling's face showed disappointment.
Seeing this, Lin Chen also understood why Lingling was so eager. After a moment of thought, he said, "Don't just think about cultivating quickly; you also need to train your spirit power control!"
"What is spirit power control?" Lingling asked, puzzled.
Lin Chen replied, "spirit power control is equivalent to the application of spirit power. With the same spirit power level, the higher the spirit power control, the stronger the combat power. If you can control your spirit power to the extreme, you can easily fight above your level."
Upon hearing this, Lingling's disappointed little face immediately lit up with joy. She said, "Teach me, I want to learn!"
Lin Chen smiled slightly and led Lingling to the bathroom. After filling the bathtub with water, Lin Chen lightly leaped and stood on the water surface.
A slight ripple appeared on the calm water surface. Lin Chen walked step by step on the water, without any feeling of falling.
"How amazing!"
