As soon as Talia finished speaking, Keller walked over with an iron spoon and carefully examined Lin Er.
"My senior brother has indeed grown taller compared to yesterday."
Talia said smugly, "I told you I had a good eye! What did you eat, Senior Brother? How did you suddenly grow taller overnight?"
Lin Er thought it must be because he broke through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining last night. At that time, he had already noticed that his bones had grown, but he did not notice that he had become taller.
It's actually quite difficult to notice without careful observation, which also shows that Talia is very meticulous.
Seeing the curiosity on their faces, he sensed this was an opportunity and said:
"Didn't I say yesterday that I was going to cultivate? I'm at the early stage of the second tier now."
"I see." Talia said in realization, and asked curiously, "Senior brother, if you can kill a second-tier opponent at the peak of the first tier, can you kill a third-tier opponent at the early stage of the second tier?"
Lin Er's lips twitched; he was well aware of his own strength.
The third tier is not on the same level as the second tier. For example, he is not confident in facing the third tier deer-headed demon he encountered last time. He probably will only be able to fight it when he reaches the late stage of Qi Refining, but even then, the chances of winning are still slim.
"I'm not that strong, you don't need to make wild guesses. Oh, by the way, there's one more thing."
Lin Er paused, and Talia's expression tightened, her face turning somewhat guilty.
Lin Er said, "I want that scroll from yesterday. What's its market value? I'll give it to you."
Talia breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the question wasn't about her tent.
"Senior brother, you can take it yourself. The disguise spell recorded on this scroll is basically useless. Even I can see through it. It's only worth about 60 coins."
The price wasn't expensive, but the effect Talia described was different from what he saw. In his eyes, this "Transformation" talisman was quite powerful.
Lin Er came to his senses and still took out 40 Fang coins and gave them to them.
At this moment, Flora also came out of the tent.
Lin Er quickly went over to her and told her about the scroll, and also gave her 20 Fang coins.
"I heard everything," Flora replied, slowly turning to Lin Er and asking, "Has your strength improved again?"
Lin Er nodded: "That's right."
"That's way too fast."
Flora was quite surprised. She remembered that it hadn't been a month since Lin Er's last rank promotion.
She asked herself if she, with her S-level elemental affinity, could achieve such speed.
"I've been eating some highly nutritious foods lately, so my condition has improved quite quickly."
"Such things exist? Did you use some kind of cursed item?"
Lin Er paused slightly, and had to admire Flora's knowledge, despite being so young.
"In a sense, it's like being cursed."
From the moment he began cultivating immortality, he had been resented by the elements of this world. He originally thought he was just unable to use the elements for cultivation.
He only recently learned that elements could actually materialize and attack him, but fortunately, he is no longer afraid of low-level elemental entities.
However, if they encounter a thousand-year-old ginseng spirit or a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng spirit, this level of cultivation is still insufficient.
He had no way out, so he still had to quickly improve his cultivation level; he was determined to obtain the water element from that lake.
"I see." Flora said in realization, then extended her hand to Lin Er.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Er gave Flora a strange look.
"If you need any help, please don't bear it yourself. You can tell me with confidence. Our elven race has a very strong foundation."
Flora, with a very serious expression, continued to extend her hand.
"I see."
As Lin Er spoke, he grasped Flora's hand, and a soft, smooth, and slightly cool sensation washed over him.
"Your hands are so hot! Could it be that you're practicing fire elemental magic?"
Flora suddenly spoke.
"It's not hot enough, it's just that your hands are too cold."
"Most of us elves are like that."
Lin Er glanced at Flora suspiciously, feeling she had no reason to lie, but still spoke up:
"Then you should take care to keep warm; the weather has been getting colder lately."
"Thank you for your concern, but we elves are not as fragile as you think."
Lin Er thought to herself that her performance last time was quite different; she was even less resistant to the cold than herself. It could only be attributed to Flora's stubbornness.
At this moment, Lin Er suddenly asked:
"If I suddenly started killing a bunch of elemental entities, what do you think people would think I was doing?"
Flora almost blurted it out.
"They must be acquiring elemental crystals."
Lin Er couldn't help but recall that when he refined the water element yesterday, he did find tiny blue fragments that tasted a little sweet.
"What if I eat the elemental entity?"
Flora was taken aback, and suddenly felt a deep sense of respect.
"I heard my mother say that some mages see that elemental entities contain abundant elemental power, so they try to make use of it."
Some of the madmen did try to consume elemental entities, only to have their bodies flooded with chaotic elements, causing them to explode and die.
Seeing that there were examples in this world, Lin Er felt relieved and already had a plan in mind.
He coughed and said, "Is it possible that there's a madman right in front of you right now?"
Flora frowned, as if she had witnessed something unbelievable, and she fell into deeper confusion.
"If a madman eats an elemental entity and doesn't die, then it can only be a curse."
Lin Er didn't say anything more. He thought Flora's guess was reasonable, and he would use that reason from now on.
When Flora saw that Lin Er suddenly fell silent, she realized the seriousness of the problem and stopped asking questions, pretending that she hadn't heard anything.
"I have something I'd like to ask, but you're not at the beginner level 2 yet, are you?"
Flora spoke in a deliberately low voice, clearly not wanting Keller and Talia to hear.
Seeing Flora's very serious look, Lin Er slowly replied:
"Yes."
Flora's face showed a thoughtful expression.
She had already judged that Lin Er's strength was no less than hers, and now that things have changed so much, he has definitely advanced to a higher level.
There wouldn't be such a big change from the peak of the first tier to the second tier, so it can only be from the peak of the second tier to the third tier.
"I see."
"I actually broke through yesterday and reached the peak of the second tier. Because I was suppressing the tier breakthrough, my body had some adverse reactions."
Flora's mood suddenly became quite high. Lin Er had promised her before that he would cooperate with her to kill Blackhorn.
Now that Blackhorn is hiding in the Mist Bone Nest, and its leader, the lizard-like demi-human Kolo, is a peak third-tier expert, she absolutely cannot break in to seek revenge on her own.
Now that Lin Er's strength has greatly increased, he is one step closer to killing Blackhorn.
But after she successfully takes revenge, how should she repay him...?
I originally thought the Moonlight Sword would be enough as a reward, but now the challenge has become much more difficult, and the Moonlight Sword is clearly not enough.
She had nothing left to offer.
