After leaving, Ling Xiao didn't head back to Qingxu College directly but instead made his way to the Tianyuan Treasure Pagoda.
With five days remaining until his life-and-death battle with the Blood Skeleton, he planned to use that time to break through to the Four Symbols Heavenly Realm in his cultivation.
Facing the Blood Skeleton, he actually didn't take it too seriously.
After all, the Blood Skeleton was nothing more than an insignificant stumbling block on his path forward.
The enterprise he wished to complete was too grand, too significant.
The enemies he would face were bound to be exceedingly strong.
His cultivation level at the Pinnacle of Three Talents Heaven was truly far from adequate, especially compared to the Ten Great Phoenix Children—he wasn't worth mentioning at all.
Take the day he returned from the Shenhuang Auction House, for example; had he not joined forces with Qin Huo, he couldn't have succeeded in killing the expert who pursued him.
