Lin Huang was in a long silence after closing the window of the Hunter a.s.sociation forum .
The appearance of the duo, Fu Minghan, and Qi Hao gave him extra pressure .
Both of them were not considered outstanding among imperial-level powerhouses, but they had extraordinary talent in the cultivation of the ancient methods .
He knew that there would be more Fu Minghans and Qi Haos in the future . Inevitably, there would be people who were even more powerful than the duo .
Lin Huang's emotions calmed down after a moment of silence .
He clicked into the Genius Union and logged in . He had been on checkpoint 55 the last time he logged out, and he remained on the same checkpoint when he logged in now .
Looking at the gigantic plants around him, Lin Huang knew he was still in the Secret Forest .
After confirming his direction, the internal communication line in the Genius Union rang all of a sudden when he was ready to kill .
He opened the communication page and realized it was Chan Dou who was calling .
Lin Huang pressed the b.u.t.ton to pick up . "Yes?"
"You've finally logged in! I haven't seen you here since over half a year ago . " Chan Dou was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt like he always did and a pair of black slacks . He gave people the impression that he came from a wealthy family .
"I've been busy . "
"I heard that your combat strength has had a major elevation . So, which checkpoint do you plan to get to this time?" Chan Dou asked excitedly .
"My goal's checkpoint 63, but I'm not sure which checkpoint will I be able to get to," Lin Huang said while smiling .
"It's great that you have a goal . Just work towards it," Chan Dou gave him words of encouragement .
"I don't suppose you called just for this?" Lin Huang faintly sensed that Chan Dou had something else to say .
"You saw through me . " Chan Dou chuckled . "Nothing much . I just want to tell you that I'm going to elevate to imperial-level . "
Naturally, Lin Huang knew what that meant . Elevating to imperial-level would mean quitting the Genius Union automatically . It would mean that Chan Dou would lose his chief position in the Heaven Alliance .
"That's sudden . Did something happen?" Chan Dou's unexpected decision surprised Lin Huang indeed .
"Actually, I'm almost done with the early preparations," Chan Dou said with a grin, "Indeed, something that made me choose to elevate now has happened . "
Lin Huang blinked his eyes and roughly guessed the reason .
"You'd find out about this sooner or later, so it wouldn't hurt for me to tell you now . " Chan Dou did not plan to hide anything . "The Union Government got a bunch of ancient cultivation methods from somewhere earlier . It was said that cultivating those methods could elevate a person to virtual G.o.d-level . Many organizations and clans are in discussion with the Union Government about this .
"However, the Union Government's still unwilling to open the methods to more people at the moment . They're planning to get imperial-level powerhouses to test the methods out for two years and the quota for each organization is limited . Our clan was given a few slots and one of them is reserved for me . I can only cultivate them officially when I've elevated to imperial-level .
"Initially, I didn't want to rush into it since there's already a quota reserved for me . After all, I could wait for a year or more before elevating to imperial-level . However, there was a piece of news that broke from the Hunter a.s.sociation that gave the elderly members in our clan a sense of danger . It was said that there are two people who have cultivated to holy fire-level in less than a month . They think that these two might elevate to Virtual G.o.ds a year later . Hence, they're urging me to elevate to imperial-level so that I can cultivate the ancient methods . "
Lin Huang was speechless upon hearing that . He could not believe that even Chan Dou, one of the Five Princes, could not escape being controlled by his family .
He could tell that Chan Dou was not ready to elevate to imperial-level yet . Perhaps he had yet to find a Life Base monster that was perfectly compatible, or maybe he had found it but had no confidence to defeat it .
Although such a situation in which his family rushed him into things seemed minor, in the long run, it was unfavorable for Chan Dou .
Although he was the Fourth Prince who was above all immortal-level powerhouses, if he did not choose the right Life Base monster, he would lose his t.i.tle when he achieved imperial-level and might not even be in the top ten with people of the same level .
"I think it's better that you drag it out as long as you can . Don't mess up your own rhythm . " Lin Huang could only give him that piece of advice . Although he thought that Chan Dou's clan behavior of 'killing the goose that lays golden egg' was not encouraged, he was just an outsider after all . It was not his place to comment on other people's business within the family .
"I've been dragging it out for almost two months now . There's nothing else that I can do . " Chan Dou forced a smile helplessly . Naturally, he knew what the consequences entailed . "Never mind . Let's not talk about me . "
"Try to get to checkpoint 63 this time . If you succeed, my recommendation to make you the Heaven Alliance's deputy chief will have an 80% success rate . "
"What?!" Lin Huang was stunned to hear that .
"Since Tang Lang left before the New Year, the position for deputy chief has been vacant . You were already on my waiting list . Tan Lang came looking for me later on and told me that your combat strength has elevated to immortal-level rank-3 . That's how you're the first on my list now . If not for your rather low combat strength, I'd even want to relinquish my position as chief to you . " Chan Dou could not see Lin Huang's current combat strength because Lin Huang had covered it from being displayed on the Genius Union .
"Oh right, actually, what's your combat strength now? Immortal-level rank-4?" Chan Dou could not help but ask .
"Something like that . " Lin Huang was afraid that he might scare Chan Dou if he told the truth, so he decided to hide it . Worried that Chan Dou would ask further, he changed the topic immediately . "Forget about the position . I'm very lazy . It's pretty awesome being an ordinary member . "
"Man, don't reject me . I've decided on this . " Chan Dou had made up his mind to drag Lin Huang into this no matter what . "It's just a featherbed . You'll only have to put in effort when it's necessary . The chief and the other deputies will handle the usual stuff . "
"Alright then…" Lin Huang agreed unwillingly anyway . He knew if he disagreed, Chan Dou would definitely dwell on it . "When do you plan to elevate?"
"Within this month, I guess . I can no longer drag it out . " Chan Dou forced a weak smile .
"Great . All the best . "
"Thanks, brother! The Heaven Alliance will depend on all of you in the future!"
Lin Huang felt sorry for Chan Dou after hanging up the call .
If Chan Dou elevated his combat strength following his own rhythm, he should be the best of the best among Virtual G.o.ds when he elevated to that level in the future . However, the cultivation now would mess up his rhythm . It might be difficult for him to achieve his peak performance .
"There's a Golden-armored Swine King approaching!" b.l.o.o.d.y warned through voice transmission all of a sudden .
Lin Huang turned to look at the direction the monster was coming from . The radius of his Territory skill had expanded to 7,000 meters, so he sensed the swine's movement since the beginning .
"Then, let's begin hunting!" Lin Huang snapped his fingers and summoned Bai and the bunch of imperial monsters . Lin Huang was in a long silence after closing the window of the Hunter a.s.sociation forum . The appearance of the duo, Fu Minghan, and Qi Hao gave him extra pressure .
