The Prodigies War-Novel

Chapter 382 Spirit Accumulation Realm

It was unknown how long it took for Lin Tianlong to snap out from his state of extreme shock and anger, but his face remained livid.

“This is ridiculous! This is so ridiculous!”

In the end, he couldn’t control himself anymore and unleashed a furious roar. His voice resembled that of a wild beast and terrified the two subordinates so much that they dropped to their knees.

“If you think you can use such a despicable way to make our West Creek Lin Clan submit, don’t even think about it!”

Bang!

Lin Tianlong slammed the table in front of him to smithereens.

His aura was extremely violent, like a beast going berserk. His eyes were red, filled with bloodthirst, and extremely terrifying.

It was only after a long moment that he slumped back down on his chair, and his eyes dimmed.

Stone Cauldron Alms was already terrifying enough, but there was also the Ning Clan of the Steel-Blood Army, the Never Falling Geezer Clan’s Gong Family, and the East Sea King, the Ye Clan. Lin Tianlong had lost all will to fight at the thought of his opponents!

They’re too strong!

He knew that the West Creek Lin Clan would never be able to compete with them even if they were to join forces with the Cloud West and Flying Peak Lin Clans!

He was only glad that they had only suffered business losses thus far, and that the West Creek Lin Clan wasn’t directly damaged.

However, he knew that the West Creek Lin Clan wouldn’t be able to survive if the situation continued!

A clan needed resources to support it. Without resources, it would collapse sooner or later.

Lin Xun!

It’s Lin Xun again!

Ever since that damn thing returned to Mind Cleansing Peak, he hasn’t stopped for a day. I can’t vent my hatred and anger if I don’t kill him!

This was the first time in his life that he had hated a person to such an extent yet he couldn’t do anything about it. After all, Lin Xun was safe in Mind Cleansing Peak and under the protection of powerful masters.

What to do?

Lin Tianlong’s mind was in turmoil. He soon fell into deep thought.

The Cloud Weight and Flying Peak Lin Clans have suffered the same situation as the West Creek Lin Clan.

It’s Lin Xun’s retaliation.

It had to be Shi Yu’s plan. They agreed to unite the families of Ning Meng, Gong Ming and Ye Xiaoqi to get revenge on the collateral branches of the Lin Family.

They could deal an incomparable blow without fighting head-on.

Lin Xun must know about the plan, but Shi Yu handled everything so Lin Xun is unaware that the three branches had already fallen into turmoil and suffering.

……

Time flew by. Two months had passed since Lin Xun began reviewing the art of runes.

Under Spirit Vulture’s arrangement, everything on Mind Cleansing Peak was progressing in an orderly fashion. Mind Cleansing Peak was thriving and showing signs of rising.

Everyone was very busy. Even Jiujiu. Yang Ling had taken it to the Blacksmith Workshop to take on the role of smelting master.

However, all that had nothing to do with Lin Xun.

At that moment, his long hair was draped over his shoulders like a shawl, and his beard was unkempt. Only his dark eyes were incredibly bright.

He crouched down on the dirt floor, his expression calm and focused. His dust-covered fingers casually drew across the ground.

A wisp of azure aeth power carved out numerous tracks under the control of his mighty spirit sense power like the tip of a brush.

The tracks were incredibly natural without any sparks or showy displays, just like flowing clouds and water.

Before long, Lin Xun lifted his finger and got up. Just as he was about to leave, a strange feeling surged to his heart. He abruptly paused and looked at the dirt floor.

He saw a pale green seedling break the surface of the soil from the rune pattern he had just drawn. It grew at an astonishing speed. A stem rapidly sprouted and gave birth to leaf buds.

In the blink of an eye, a one-foot-long phoenix tail grass had matured and swayed gracefully in the breeze.

The rune pattern had already faded from the ground.

A smile quietly spread across Lin Xun’s lips.

His smile was extremely bright because he knew the scene represented that he had finally reached the Spirit Accumulation Realm in the art of runes!

The so-called Spirit Accumulation involved nurturing a spiritual nature using the mysterious power of runes!

For example, the phoenix tail grass had been awakened and produced a unique spiritual nature like it had gained life force from the green wood rune. As a result, it grew in the blink of an eye!

It was similar to turning rock into gold. It seemed insignificant, but the power could turn something rotten into something beautiful!

The power was called Spirit Accumulation in the art of runes!

Only true rune grandmasters could comprehend the mystery of Spirit Accumulation, and only very few could master it in the end.

Such people were considered rare existences in the world.

This was because it was too difficult to acquire the Spirit Accumulation skill. It was a mysterious and obscure process that granted certain items and objects a spiritual nature using the art of runes.

Some rune grandmasters would never even reach the door of the Spirit Accumulation Realm even with a lifetime of hard work if they weren’t talented enough!

At least, as far as Lin Xun knew, Old Mo was only one step from controlling Spirit Accumulation.

It might be only one step, but it was more like a giant door blocking his way. Through the door was another world—a whole new world!

It was two completely different worlds.

In the empire, only rune grandmasters who had mastered the Spirit Accumulation skill had the potential to become a rune founder.

Additionally, only they could create rune armaments!

It was easy to imagine how remarkable it was for Lin Xun to be able to control Spirit Accumulation skills at such a young age.

If this matter spread out, no one would believe that a youngster could become a rune grandmaster with the Spirit Accumulation ability!

However, it might be a difficult thing for Lin Xun, but it wasn’t something remarkable.

This was because Mister Lu had shown him many Spirit Accumulation means from a young age.

Mister Lu had also indifferently said to him, “Spirit Accumulation is nothing special. It just proves that you are a true rune master. There is still a long path to go.”

Lin Xun still vividly remembered his words

When he was young, he had thought that only when he could accumulate spirit would he be able to become a respected rune master.

However, now that he had grown up, he knew that Spirit Accumulation might seem nothing special to Mister Lu, but it was no easy task to the vast majority of rune masters in the world!

“I can start to prepare now…” Lin Xun muttered, drawing a deep breath.

His eyes became indescribably bright and resolute. He no longer looked as berserk as he did a few days ago.

In his mind, his insights and comprehension into the art of runes he had obtained recently had all been digested.

He was most surprised to learn that, after these days of training, his cultivation had solidified, and he was close to breaking through to the intermediate Spirit Sea Stage!

Most importantly, when he circulated his vast aeth power in his body, he realized he had perfect control over it like it was his own arm. He didn’t feel any signs of discomfort caused by the rapid improvements in his cultivation like he did in the past.

This was an unexpected benefit from tempering his rune skills!

Every time he inscribed a rune pattern, he had to precisely control his aeth power. After thousands of times, he inevitably became incredibly skilled in it.

……

Seven days later in the Blacksmith Workshop.

As Yang Ling looked at the twelve rudimentary versions of aeth tools in front of him, a satisfied smile lit up his face.

The twelve rudimentary aeth tools included swords, spears, blades and axes, and all of them were of completely different styles.

This was what Lin Xun had asked him to help refine. Rune masters could make such materials into true earth-grade aeth tools!

Yang Ling was just puzzled about what Lin Xun planned to do with the aeth tools.

Before long, Lin Xun appeared in the Blacksmith workshop and nodded in satisfaction at the rudimentary aeth tools.

Yang Ling is indeed a rare talent in forging weapons. These rudimentary aeth tools are all top class.

Lin Xun’s long hair was tied up, his beard was cleanly shaved and his figure was graceful. He exuded an ethereal demeanor.

He put away the twelve rudimentary aeth tools and instructed, “Can you continue to help me make rudimentary aeth tools according to the standards of Earth-grade aeth tools? I will specially send someone to come and collect them when they are done.”

Lin Xun hastily left.

Yang Ling frowned in bewilderment. Could the Young Master still intend to make aeth tools by himself?

He had also heard that Lin Xun was also a rune master and that he had designed the latest Violet Hero Battleship that the empire used.

Yang Ling still couldn’t understand why Lin Xun, the master of Mind Cleansing Peak and a cultivation genius, would be tinkering with all these things and not focus on important affairs.

In the end, Yang Ling couldn’t hold back and shared his thoughts with Old Diao. Old Diao also looked bewildered and couldn’t understand what Lin Xun was doing.

Old Diao then told Blood Thorn…

It didn’t take long for everyone on Mind Cleansing Peak to know that Lin Xun, the young master in charge of Mind Cleansing Peak, was playing around with making weapons!

Many people expressed their concerns. Mind Cleansing Peak was thriving, but the master of Mind Cleansing Peak was not attending to his proper duties.

Only Xiaoke knew that Lin Xun was not doing irrelevant work but that he was an extraordinarily talented rune master.

Of course, Xiaoke was also very curious about what treasures Lin Xun planned to make from the months of preparations.

Spirit Vulture knew, but he couldn’t say it. After all, it was a shocking matter to make a rune armament and it would cause an uproar.

Of course, Spirit Vulture was certain that Lin Xun wasn’t currently making a rune armament because a rune armament wasn’t made from such rudimentary aeth tools.

What is Lin Xun planning to do?

Spirit Vulture couldn’t help but feel curious.
