It’s hard to imagine that the City Lord of the world’s most technologically advanced Space City for Demon Armor is actually a top-level Trial Taker.
"Can you help heal my wounds first? It’s really uncomfortable," Li Xiu said with a grimace.
"Sorry, I’ll heal you right away." Chu Jun hurriedly summoned the White Lotus, which hovered above Li Xiu’s head, casting beams of light that slowly repaired Li Xiu’s damaged body.
Although both the White Lotus and the Undying Bullet have the ability to heal the body, they differ slightly.
The Undying Bullet heals faster, but it’s more effective for physical injuries such as muscle tears and bone fractures, healing them extrely quickly.
The White Lotus heals much slower, but its healing is more ticulous, making it more effective for repairing damaged nerves.
The main reason Li Xiu needed the White Lotus was to repair his damaged nerves.
Seeing that Li Xiu’s injuries, although horrific, were not fatal and that recovery was just a matter of ti, Chu Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
"There’s only one event left in the Trial Taker competition that hasn’t crowned a champion. Li Qingyi has won two events, which has been a huge help. The dia outside are calling her the number one beauty Trial Taker, an acknowledged goddess-level Trial Taker, even more famous than Ye Xiyuan before," Chu Jun briefly described the situation of the Trial Taker competition.
Li Xiu was not surprised. Although Li Qingyi had just recently advanced to the Spirit Forging Level, after all, she is the president’s bloodline. Li Xiu knows best how formidable the president’s children are. Even if Li Qingyi sweeps the board, he wouldn’t be surprised.
"By the way, Old Eight has co to the City of Light and says he wants to see you. He wants to ask you for a favor," Chu Jun continued.
"I’m too tired today; I need a night’s rest. Tomorrow, you can tell Old Eight that I’m here," Li Xiu roughly guessed what Old Eight wanted from him.
"Got it," Chu Jun nodded slightly.
It took four or five hours for Li Xiu’s injuries to fully recover, primarily due to the difficulty in repairing the damaged nerves, as the White Lotus wasn’t high enough in level to heal faster.
Even though his body had healed, Li Xiu still felt a bit fatigued and quickly fell asleep after lying in bed, not waking up until noon the next day.
After getting up, washing up, and eating sothing, Li Xiu carefully reviewed the information on the Forbidden Spear’s ascension to the Divine Position Level.
There weren’t significant differences from the Spirit Forging Level version of the Forbidden Spear, apart from an enhancent of the Primordial Embryo Quality, and mainly the addition of a Light of Truth.
The Light of Truth of the Forbidden Spear is called "Forbidden Light." According to the annotations, although it has "forbidden" in the na, its ability is entirely different from that of the Forbidden Spear.
The Forbidden Light doesn’t add any forbidden abilities but instead can dispel forbidden power.
In other words, regardless of any forbidden power the opponent possesses, the Forbidden Light would imdiately dispel it. However, Li Xiu wasn’t yet sure of the full range of powers it could dispel.
Unfortunately, the ascension of the Forbidden Spear to the Divine Position didn’t prompt Li Xiu’s own body to ascend to the Divine Position.
This is the drawback of the Light Planting Technique. In general Light Casting Techniques, the contract rges with the body, and when the Life Contract ascends to the Divine Position, the body follows suit. The Light Planting Technique doesn’t offer such benefits, which has its pros and cons.
"It took two Divine Position Gemstones to ascend the Forbidden Spear. The Evil Spirit Token probably needs two Divine Position Gemstones to ascend to the Divine Position. I don’t know if two are enough for myself, given there’s still a Vampire in my body..." Li Xiu was already contemplating where to hunt Divine Position Demon Spirits for gemstones.
While contemplating, his phone suddenly rang.
Li Xiu took out his phone to see that it was Old Eight calling.
"Fourth Brother, I heard you’re back in the City of Light. I have so good tea. How about we find a ti to taste it?" Old Eight said cheerfully.
"Sure, should you co to , or should I go to you?" Li Xiu agreed without hesitation.
"Let’s go to the Natural Residence in your city; there’s soone I want to introduce you to. It’s not too convenient to go to your City Lord’s Mansion," Old Eight said.
Li Xiu didn’t ask who it was and agreed outright.
In a private room at the Natural Residence, Old Eight and a young man were sitting, drinking tea. The young man was evidently a bit nervous and uneasy.
"Old Eight, who are you going to introduce to ?" Sima Bubiao couldn’t help but ask.
Due to Li Xiu’s previous warning, Sima Bubiao didn’t dare to use his contract to cheat indiscriminately, so his performance in the Trial Taker competition wasn’t very impressive.
Sima Bubiao felt that with such a performance relying on Old Eight was hardly repaying him. Instead, he needed Old Eight’s connections to enter the Palace of Longevity. Although Old Eight was not concerned about these matters and valued him highly, Sima Bubiao was sowhat frustrated.
"I’m taking you to et my sworn brother, Fourth Brother. With your ability, entering the Palace of Longevity shouldn’t be a problem, but not everyone there has the authority to recruit mbers. Only a few people have that authority, and I can’t directly bring you in. It would be problematic if soone else recruits you. My Fourth Brother has such authority, which is why I’m bringing you to et him," Old Eight said, sipping his tea.
Sima Bubiao nodded but remained a bit nervous because it was a situation where he needed help.
Seeing this, Old Eight chuckled, "Don’t be nervous; he’s my sworn brother. It’s just a matter of saying the word."
