"Your disciple is ready." Xiao Yan said seriously.
Lin Feng nodded his head, "Go and pack up, we are going."
Xiao Yan replied, "Master, you are going with me?"
Lin Feng laughed, "I will not interfere in your battle with Murong Yanran, but if the Sword of
Radiance Sect dares to try anything funny, I will teach them what the rules are."
Although he said it nicely, it was what Lin Feng wanted to do.
"This is the legendary fight against the loser! This fun must not be missed!"
Lin Feng only felt that the Fire of Eight Trigrams was burning vigorously in his heart. When he first accepted Xiao Yan as his disciple, the day that he had been looking forward to had finally arrived, where he could just be an onlooker from the stronger party.
As for the Sword of Radiance Sect, it was not worth mentioning in front of Xiao Yan. They should just watch their back.
Xiao Yan laughed, "Just target those who went with Murong Yanran to Wuzhou City and we will know what the Sword of Radiance Sect is up to."
"The abode of the Sword of Radiance Sect, Xingyun Peak, is it at the southeast part of the Great Qin Empire?" Xiao Bu Dian recalled how it looked and turned his head to ask Tuntun, "I remember that you mentioned a delicious demon snake meat in the southeast part of the Great Qin Empire?"
Tuntun nodded his head and licked her lips, reminiscing about it, "Blue Cloud Horn Snake, the taste is fairly good."
Xiao Bu Dian answered with a "Mm" and came before Xiao Yan, saying seriously, "Big Senior, let me follow you. If Murong Yanran and his sect dare to pull any trick, I can give you a hand."
"Get lost!" Xiao Yan replied furiously, "Just tell me directly if you want to catch demons, do not act so high and mighty around here."
Xiao Bu Dian laughed cheekily, "My main aim is to cheer you on, anything else is just a bonus."
Lin Feng shook his head while laughing and he was just looking at the crowd without worrying much. Even if Xiao Bu Dian tagged along, it would be nothing much.
Zhu Yi remained at the mountain to guide the new disciples. Wang Lin and Yang Qing were both training hard. Besides Xiao Bu Dian, Lin Feng brought Yue Hongyan along too.
Yue Hongyan and Yang Qing was different. She did not suit a style of meditation to cultivate her skills. In other words, engaging in a practical battle would be more efficient in helping her achieve a breakthrough.
Xiao Bu Dian looked at Xiao Yan and was distracted suddenly. After a while, he turned his head and looked at Lin Feng, saying, "Master, after Big Senior’s tasks have been settled, I will like to find my parents."
Lin Feng nodded his head, replying, "I had kept a lookout for news of your parents, but they have not returned back to your Shi family clan. There has been no news in the past few years."
"The most probable thing is that they may have stayed in an alternate dimension, that is why news of them was cut off."
Xiao Bu Dian opened his eyes wide and looked worried, "Master…."
Lin Feng laughed slightly, "Do not be worried. You may not know something, which is that whoever possesses a cultivation in the Aurous Core Stage within the Shi Family Clan will leave their Natal Light in the clan temple, forming a connection with my soul. If my soul does not perish, their Natal Light will not burn out."
"Your father left the family because of you, but your Shi family did take pity on the ancestors of your father and yourself, thus they continue to keep the Natal Light of your father." Lin Feng followed with, "I recently received news that your father’s Natal Light is intact."
Xiao Bu Dian heaved a sigh of relief, but he was still a little worried.
Zhu Yi, who was at a corner, said gently, "Master, in half a year’s time, it will be the scholarly examination again. I will like to attend this examination."
"Please do not be worried, Master. I will not affect my guidance of the disciples on the mountain."
Lin Feng looked at him, answering him slowly, "I have always been at ease when you do things.
This examination is definitely a very apt opportunity for you to realize your dream."
Zhu Yi nodded his head in silence.
He and Lin Feng were both sure that the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Great Zhou Empire were in a period of honeymoon. To take care of Lin Feng’s emotions, the Zhou Emperor Liang Pan would not dare to be stingy.
If Zhu Yi could top this examination, he would be able to give his mother, Meng Bingyun, fame and a comfortable life.
With Liang Pan’s edict, even the Marquis of Xuanji, Zhu Hongwu, had to obey.
As to how much he could get, it depended on how much Zhu Yi knew about the circumstances of the Great Zhou Empire.
Before embarking on their journey, Lin Feng went to Wang Lin’s cave after explaining many things to Kang Nanhua and Miao Shihao.
Wang Lin saw that Lin Feng had arrived and stopped his cultivation immediately, greeting Lin Feng. Lin Feng waved his head and passed Wang Lin a ceramic jar that was full of elixirs.
"Master?" Wang Lin was a little confused. Lin Feng said, "This ceramic jar contains the celestial elixirs of the Heavenly Master Sword Sect. There are seven elixirs in total. You shall consume them according to the situation. Although this elixir can be consumed with effect for a couple of times, its effectiveness will dwindle over time."
Wang Lin received the celestial elixirs but did not realize that anything was amiss. In the entire sect, only he was suitable to consume such an elixir.
Using the elixir to help in the cultivation was definitely not as reliable as one’s own cultivation, as the foundation was not as stable. Xiao Yan, Xiao Bu Dian, Zhu Yi and even Yang Qing and Yue Hongyan would hope to cultivate based on their own hard work and not through consuming elixirs.
Even if they wanted, Lin Feng would not allow.
If it was the Trāyastriṃśa Elixir of Creation, then it would be a different issue. It was a different level than the Celestial Elixir. There were no side effects after consuming it and its effects were unbelievable.
But Wang Lin was different. His natural Innate Ability was too low, thus it was predestined that his Qi Cultivation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage was slow like a turtle’s crawl. He would need longer than others.
But attaining both full points for Innate Ability and Determination could ensure that even if Wang
Lin had to rely on the elixir to increase his cultivation, he could perfect the foundation that was not naturally reliable and achieved significant results.
If it were not for the fact that the effectiveness of the elixir decreases after each use, Lin Feng would have thought of a way to produce the celestial elixir in huge amounts and fed them to Wang Lin.
That was why when Wang Lin received the celestial elixir, he had only gratitude in his heart for Lin Feng and never thought that he would attract the unhappiness of his fellow sect members if he was to consume everything for himself.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Lin, saying gently, "Lin, you have a strong will and that is your strength. I will not say any further, but I need to remind you that you must never rush. More haste, less speed."
Wang Lin lifted his head and looked at Lin Feng. He felt that Lin Feng’s gaze had pierced into his heart.
When battling various opponents, the differences were not that obvious yet. But during the process of capturing Tuntun, many took turns to spar with her and revealed the gaping differences in the cultivation of Lin Feng’s disciples.
In terms of practical battle, the strongest currently was his most senior disciple, Xiao Yan. He repressed Tuntun, who substituted the Gengjin Tiger King’s corpse for her flesh, contained the Gifted Engulfing Theurgy and the Grand Sun Primordial Fire.
The combination of the Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire and the Grand Sun Primordial Fire brought about a frightening pressure, causing Kang Nanhua and Miao Shihao to stare at it and scared Tuntun away.
Strictly speaking, Zhu Yi did not make a move but eventually used his Great Boundaries of the Celestial Light and Darkness Mandala to contain Tuntun.
Xiao Bu Dian was also not directly involved and he gained a cheap advantage because of Zhu Yi.
But after Lin Feng removed Zhu Yi’s Light and Darkness boundaries, Tuntun did not dare to make any wrong movement beside Xiao Bu Dian.
Xiao Bu Dian, whose Nine Holed Aurous Core could spit and swallow up the Earth, had the most vigorous mana that trumped all of Lin Feng’s disciples. After cultivating the Heaven Shaking Thunderstorm, the destructive abilities of Xiao Bu Dian’s strong flesh and soul became even more frightening.
The Bastille Black Dragon clan was the strongest amongst the Immemorial Celestial Dragons.
Even among the demonic clan, it was also one of the strongest. But if Jieyu did not form the demon soul and promote to a demon lord, he might not be able to overcome Xiao Bu Dian.
As they clashed head on, Tuntun was unable to deal with the three of them.
Among the remaining, Yue Hongyan was not around. Yang Qing and Wang Lin clashed with Tuntun and were repressed by her easily.
Especially when Tuntun engulfed Wang Lin’s destructive powers, nothing happened to her at all.
With the same magnitude of power as the Destruction of Heaven and Earth, the collapse of Zhu Yi’s Light and Darkness boundaries caused her to be paralyzed.
Wang Lin was not like Yang Qing who doubted himself. But he would double his efforts because of the hate for his own uselessness.
Staying beside Xiao Yan and the rest caused great stress among the others. Once they could not convert stress into motivation, they would be greatly burdened.
Calculating the amount of time spent in the Heavenly Cosmic Ray World, Wang Lin had already been held down for many years. Fortunately, his determination was strong enough. If it was another person, he would have collapsed in a defeatist attitude or be consumed by a jealous mind.
Lin Feng looked at Wang Lin quietly. Wang Lin was very calm and nodded his head vigorously,
"Your disciple will follow your teachings and will take great care."
After acknowledging Wang Lin, Lin Feng brought Xiao Yan and the rest out of Mount Yujing and proceeded towards Xingyun Peak, the location of the Sword of Radiance Sect.
He did not control Mount Yujing and caused it to descend. That would be too attention-seeking. But its nature had changed. It was no longer a sparring session between the disciples, but an attack on someone else’s house.
However, Lin Feng had his own way of seeking attention.
The best tool was Jieyu, who had just promoted to the level of a demonic lord.
Everyone stood in a line on Jieyu’s back and flew towards the direction of Xingyun Peak in a blink of an eye.
"There is no need to travel through space." Lin Feng told Jieyu. "Just fly there all the way. Let these guys understand the beauty of the mountains and broaden their minds."
Lin Feng decided to make this planned battle as recognized as possible. This allowed him to boost his own reputation and the reputation of his sect outside of Mount Kunlun.
Riding a dragon of the level of a demonic lord across the borders was definitely not low profile at all.
Very soon, Lin Feng’s and the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ reputation became more and more pronounced as they traveled from Mount Kunlun to Xingyun Peak.
On Xingyun Peak, the elders of the Sword of Radiance Sect also heard about Lin Feng’s impending arrival at their abode, causing the huge crowd to open their eyes wide.
"Azure Clouds Grandmaster has not found Murong Yanran?"
