Chapter 1080: Just A Punch!
Still inside the palace, Lin Feng sat down cross-legged. The force was still there, however, Lin Feng felt more relaxed than before. Of course, it was still oppressive, but Lin Feng understood it a lot better and on top of that, he was getting used to it.
Pure sun Qi revolved around him and Lin Feng absorbed that force. The palace was filled with pure Qi. Even without using stones, he could still absorb plenty of pure Qi. Therefore, he could practice cultivation calmly in there. Lin Feng was determined to become stronger.
At that moment, inside the palace, some marks appeared and revolved in the palace.
Bzzz!” the energies exploded in the palace and surrounded Lin Feng. He was bathing in dazzling lights. He was getting familiar with the Earth and sky, as if he was fusing together with it. It was a natural strength.
Qiong Qi opened his eyes and looked at Lin Feng. Interesting. His eyes were twinkling as he sat down respectfully. Since he had turned into an animal, he hadn’t been that close to the strength of the path. Tiantai’s emperors seemed like they attached a lot of importance to the path. They hoped their best cultivators could learn about it as soon as possible.
Every emperor attached importance to the path. Tiantai’s emperors were no different.
The sun became even more dazzling. Lin Feng was sitting and bathing in those golden lights. The celestial Qi of the palace became even thicker and richer, and definitely more dazzling.
That was the energy of the ten thousand things of creation: trees, flowers, water… Water started flowing around Lin Feng. It seemed like an illusion.
Lin Feng was sitting motionless as he looked calm and serene. Qiong Qi looked at him respectfully. It was as if there was nobody around Lin Feng. It was like the big bang, the creation of the universe.
The fire became even more intense and Lin Feng felt hot. Soon the fire illuminated the room.
Lin Feng lost the notion of time as he was already holding his Tian Xuan stone. It was glowing now as strange lights and energies flowed in Lin Feng’s body. He was trying to understand them. He attracted them to his brain, into his spirit. He was in his void world which looked like the outside world, but more distinct, clearer.
His spirit was absorbing the strength of the Earth and sky.
“I’m absorbing the Earth and sky.” thought Lin Feng. He was more and more surprised by his spirit. It was extraordinary. He was wondering how he had obtained such an extraordinary spirit. He could use it to memorize holy marks, skills, … now he could use it to focus the strength of the path, the Earth and the sky!
Lin Feng didn’t stop practicing cultivation. It felt so comfortable to study there after all. The pure Qi he absorbed was also incredibly fresh: so rich and thick. His fire became stronger. Everything was so distinct in his brain.
After three more days, Lin Feng’s fire slowly disappeared. The dazzling lights around him faded and the atmosphere became calm again. The illusion gradually disappeared. There were only fading lights in the palace, like the mysterious intent of the path.
“What a strange palace!” thought Lin Feng. It contained an explosive force. Lin Feng practiced three days and reached the top of the fourth Tian Qi layer, one more step and he’d break through to the fifth Tian Qi layer.
Lin Feng turned around and looked at Qiong Qi. Qiong Qi said nothing. He had sensed the strength of the path and that was great. Besides, he couldn’t hide his cultivation level anymore either.
“Level five Tian level beast, he hid his cultivation level! I knew it!” thought Lin Feng. Qiong Qi had become stronger than him earlier. Each time he became stronger, he didn’t mind staying next to Lin Feng and doing nothing.
Qiong Qi sensed something, he opened his eyes and looked at Lin Feng. “You inspected my cultivation level!”
“You lied to me!” said Lin Feng. Qiong Qi looked at Lin Feng in a disdainful way and said, “You were just too slow.”
“Slow?” Lin Feng was speechless. After having broken through to the Tian Qi layer, he had progressed so fast. He wasn’t slow at all.
Lin Feng walked into the palace and looked at the illusion in the mirror again. Lin Feng was determined this time. He had practiced hard for three days and now he could use the force of the Earth and sky to a higher degree. He tried to attack the mirror again, but it was always the same.
He continued for half a month and continued becoming stronger. Lin Feng believed that he needed to go out and face dangerous situations to break through to the fifth Tian Qi layer.
The path of cultivation was mysterious and there weren’t any fixed rule. Cultivators had to understand cultivation to become stronger.
Lin Feng went down the stairs and stopped on the fourth group of steps, he saw a big road and there were many people residing there. Qiu Yue Xin, Lin Ruo Tian, and so on. For them, it was the same, they also had to face illusions with their own self inside.
“Lin Feng!” said Qiu Yue Xin when she saw Lin Feng. She suddenly looked relaxed and smiled at him. She said, in a gentle way, “When you practice cultivation, you forget everything, you haven’t come in a month!”
“I missed you, that’s why I came now.” said Lin Feng smiling. Qiu Yue Xin rolled her eyes and said, “You’re such a flirt.”
“Lin Feng, brother, you want to come and try?” said Lin Ruo Tian. He was also getting attacked by the mirror. Even though Lin Feng had refused to join the Lin Clan, Lin Ruo Tian still considered Lin Feng a close friend.
“That illusion is so annoying. The emperors want us to understand how they created those illusions. We can’t pass this test.” said Qiu Yue Xin. She was obviously annoyed. She came from a rich and powerful family so she understand what that test consisted of.
Lin Feng raised his head and said, “It seems like analytical and understanding skills are the most important thing for the emperors. Once we pass those tests, we can join them on the tenth floor.”
“Maybe.” whispered Qiu Yue Xin.
Lin Feng walked towards the illusion, his reflection appeared, motionless.
Lin Feng stepped forwards, the Earth and sky emitted a bumping sound. Some strength was flowing into Lin Feng’s hand. He punched the illusion and a sound spread in the air. Natural strength immediately flowed into his body.
“Kacha!”
Lin Feng’s reflection shook, force flowed in the reflection and it disappeared, it was destroyed. Qiu Yue Xin and Lin Ruo Tian were completely astonished.
They couldn’t destroy their reflections and Lin Feng could destroy his with only one punch?
