"Did the esteemed member of the Association look for me?" Lin Qi was quite surprised upon hearing this.

The esteemed member of the Martial Artist Association that Qin Mu mentioned had previously elevated the newly established Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall to the rankings of the wilderness forces. Although Qin Mu did not disclose this person's identity, it would be easy for him to find out as he was a certified genius martial artist of the Association.

In Chasing Light City, although the Human Race was not a weak group, they were not powerful either, and experts in the Bone Forging Realm were rare.

And this person, who held a high position in the Martial Artist Association of Chasing Light City, was highly revered by Qin Mu.

This was Liu Tianzong, the vice-chairman of the Chasing Light City Martial Artist Association.

Liu Tianzong could be said to be the anchor of stability for the Human Race in Chasing Light City, and was also the closest expert to that level.

"That's right, that esteemed member rarely returns. Once he learned you were a Bone Forging Realm expert, he wanted to meet you at the first opportunity." Qin Mu said, his eyes filled with admiration, "If you're free now, come with me. That esteemed member doesn't return often, and as you're a Bone Forging Realm expert, you are eligible to enter the city's upper echelons. This is also the reason why he's looking for you."

"Alright, let's go then." Lin Qi nodded, as there was no reason to refuse such an invitation from a strong Human Race figure.

Although he appeared highly successful to outsiders, he was well aware that the resources in Chasing Light City were limited, with all races fighting over them. With a new face like his appearing among the Human Race, the Bone Forging Realm experts of various races might secretly be gnashing their teeth.

At this moment, Liu Tianzong's invitation was actually a reminder to the other races, letting them know that the new Human Race Bone Forging Realm martial artist wasn't without backing.

Lin Qi then had Meng Wei manage the increasingly large number of vagabonds joining the Martial Arts Hall. He alone boarded the flying car with Qin Mu, heading towards the city district.

City District, Martial Artist Association.

The flying car slowly stopped at the rooftop of the Association building, which resembled a plaza. From time to time, flying cars landed and departed, and from the individuals disembarking and boarding, the Blood Qi they exuded indicated that many were Bone Forging Realm martial artists, in stark contrast to the main hall where not a single Bone Forging Realm martial artist could be seen, as if they were in separate worlds.

"The top floor of the Association is exclusively for Bone Forging Realm martial artists. Only Bone Forging Realm martial artists can land here. Refining Organ Realm martial artists are not allowed unless they have specific duties or arrangements." Qin Mu explained while leading the way and noticing Lin Qi observing the movements of Bone Forging Realm martial artists. "Moreover, beyond the rooftop, the Association building's fifty-plus floors are dedicated areas for Bone Forging Realm and above martial artists to rest and train, normally prohibiting Refining Organ Realm martial artists from entering to prevent disturbance to them."

"No wonder last time when I visited the Association, I didn't see a single Bone Forging Realm martial artist. The Association indeed has made comprehensive preparations for them." Lin Qi marveled at the Bone Forging Realm experts passing by from various races within the building.

He originally thought the gap between ordinary people and martial artists was large enough, but seeing the Association's top floor, he realized the gap between Refining Organ Realm and Bone Forging Realm martial artists was even greater.

Bone Forging Realm martial artists were chauffeured by flying cars, and the energy he could sense at the rooftop far exceeded that of the first floor lobby, its concentration was staggering, like standing in the heart of a small energy ore vein.

Cultivating here, Refining Organ Realm martial artists might not even require energy ore stones; direct cultivation would likely yield better results than using energy ore stones.

"We've arrived." Qin Mu pointed to the vice-chairman's room at the end of the corridor, "The esteemed member will only meet with you, so I'll stay outside."

"Alright, thank you, Brother Qin Mu." Lin Qi nodded, then knocked on the door.

The tightly shut alloy door slowly opened, revealing a place akin to a garden inside. Unknown species of trees and flowers were planted everywhere, and upon entering, his mind felt instantly clearer.

At the center of the room, on a floor entirely paved with energy crystal stones, sat an elder appearing sixty or seventy years old, with slightly graying hair, poring over information on his smart watch.

As Lin Qi approached within ten meters of the elder, although there was no visible Blood Qi battle flag, the moment he set foot there, it felt as though he had stepped into an ocean of Blood Qi, the intensity weighed on him like carrying ten thousand pounds.

"Is this the strength of someone on the brink of that level?" Lin Qi was utterly shaken as he observed Liu Tianzong, who was not deliberately releasing his qi and blood.

Due to cultivating three training techniques at once, Lin Qi's qi and blood did not lose to true Bone Forging Realm martial artists, but compared to Liu Tianzong before him, it was like a brook against a great river, entirely different levels.

Even without deliberately releasing qi and blood, within a radius of ten meters, not a single Refining Organ Realm martial artist could possibly harm Liu Tianzong. Indeed, ordinary Refining Organ Realm martial artists entering within ten meters of Liu Tianzong would likely find themselves immobilized.

"Not bad, your qi and blood has indeed reached the Bone Forging Realm." Liu Tianzong, satisfied, looked at Lin Qi, who was sitting atop the ground mat a meter plus distance from him. "Little Meng achieving the Bone Forging Realm recently gave me quite a surprise, and now, in just a few days, another one not of the Bone Forging Realm yet surpassing Bone Forging Realm levels, emerges."

"Vice-chairman Liu has really seen through it." Lin Qi responded somewhat embarrassed, "Though I wish to clarify the misunderstanding, unfortunately no one believes me."
