Lin Xing never expected that this time his encounter with the heart demon would actually take a full twelve days! He didn't feel like it had been that long. It was just a moment of being in a daze and then a fight.
Had it really been that long!?
Walking on the square of Tongtian Peak, the surrounding area was still filled with steaming and lingering fog that never dispersed throughout the year. The Yuqing Palace stood at the end of the sea of clouds, towering high as if it were holding up the sky.
He was here again.
These days, Lin Xing had been staying in Longshou Peak. Occasionally, he would go to Dazhu Peak, but only to visit Ling'er.
He hadn't met Su Ru. He was a bit scared, worried that Su Ru would slap him in anger.
Lin Xing had basically figured out his own situation. That damn it thing didn't infect him but rather "amplified" his desires.
Everyone has the seven emotions, six desires, and various impurities such as greed, anger, and ignorance. Lin Xing was like opening the door to the evil in his heart, but essentially, Lin Xing was still Lin Xing.
Lin Xing wasn't exactly a good person. If he became bad, so be it. Anyway, from the beginning, he didn't plan to be a righteous figure.
The only thing that made Lin Xing feel conflicted was Su Ru.
That time, he was impulsive under the temptation of that mysterious will. Lin Xing always felt a bit like he had slept with someone while drunk. Every time he went to Dazhu Peak, he was on tenterhooks, fearing to meet Su Ru.
"It seems I need some time to get used to this." Also, judging from the situation, was he going to have a harem in the future?
Actually, if he did, so be it! Lin Xing had already figured it out these days. With the heart demon completely gone, his Daoist arts had also rapidly advanced to the eighth level of the Jade Pure Realm. There was nothing to worry about.
Lin Xing was just very depressed. He felt as if he had done something I'm sorry Jin Ping'er and Bi Yao, and a sense of cheating lingered (Author: Damn it, is Bi Yao yours now??).
These days, Lin Xing would sometimes have sudden thoughts. What if he didn't become evil but suddenly became a psychopath and still thought it was perfectly normal?
Damn it, thinking of this, Lin Xing couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. What on earth was that thing? It was so powerful!?
It was simply treating people like marionettes!
Fortunately, he had defeated it.
Step by step, Lin Xing walked forward while thinking, entering the tall building in front.
Stepping up the steps, going up layer by layer, Lin Xing's spiritual power turned into a large net and spread towards the Yuqing Palace.
After devouring that thing, Lin Xing's spiritual power had expanded to an unimaginable and overpowered level, so much so that he couldn't fully control it now. The hazy clouds and mist seemed to be dispelled by the wind, slowly retreating in front of Lin Xing and revealing a clear path.
Even when Lin Xing tried his best to control it, his spiritual power, or rather his mental power, still affected the physical objects. Such a huge amount of spiritual power was unimaginable for any cultivator.
Lin Xing's spiritual power could now slightly replace his five senses. Without seeing or hearing, he could feel the appearance of the Yuqing Palace. And he was even more sensitive to certain restrictions.
The first time he came to the Yuqing Palace, Lin Xing only discovered that restriction. This time, with a little observation, he had completely understood it.
The application of the water attribute was a small variation of the water - based Daoist arts, repelling the approach of "water". Fog, which was essentially water, was naturally within this scope.
Lin Xing couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his initial choice. He didn't major in any one Daoist art or any one weapon. Instead, he dabbled in a bit of everything all at once.
At the beginning, he might not have been as strong as those who specialized in one thing, but the further he went, the more his potential was revealed.
Especially for Lin Xing.
As his Daoist arts became increasingly profound and with the recent removal of the heart demon, Lin Xing could always have a sense of comprehension by analogy unintentionally. Before, he only had a deep understanding of "water", but now, even for things that were not "water" and "thunder", Lin Xing could still vaguely understand or see something from them.
And if the Eight Trigrams were fully awakened, almost ninety percent of the Daoist techniques could find their corresponding parts in it.
All kinds of Daoist arts and the Eight Trigrams representing all things. vaguely,they coincided.
Entering the Yuqing Palace, the people inside had already arrived. However, when Lin Xing saw Su Lingfeng and Zeng Shushu, he was slightly taken aback.
That's right. The peak masters weren't blind. How could they overlook the true masters? This experience was also a rare opportunity.
Lin Xing walked up to the others and said in a low voice, "I didn't expect that I'm the last one."
Lu Xueqi had a cold face.
Qi Hao was smiling hypocritically.
Zeng Shushu looked at Lin Xing, who had defeated him in just a few moves, with some embarrassment.
Su Lingfeng? Even more hateful. She stood there with a faint smile, her beautiful eyes looking at Lin Xing, as if waiting for him to make a fool of himself.
No one spoke. Damn it! It was so awkward!
At a crucial moment, it was the honest Xiaofan who spoke up and relieved Lin Xing's embarrassment: "Senior Brother Lin Xing, you, hello!" His voice was timid, as if he had been bullied by someone.
Damn it! I just stole your senior sister. Do you need to be so afraid of me?
Zeng Shushu was a sociable person. After being stunned for a while, he finally joined in: "What's the big deal? It's just for fun. And Little Lin Xing, you're the main character today..."
Uh... Little Lin Xing? Are we that close?
"Junior Brother Lin Xing is young, but his Daoist arts are truly admirable." Su Lingfeng also spoke up.
Then the few people started chatting non - stop, only Lu Xueqi kept a cold face. Every time Lin Xing looked at her, he felt that this beauty was looking at him with hatred.
"If there were no one here, she would probably strike me with her sword." Lin Xing thought.
"By the way, I heard from my father that this time we're going to Kunsang Mountain for an experience." Zeng Shushu's gossip finally attracted Lu Xueqi's attention for the first time.
"Kunsang Mountain is great. I've been there!" Lin Xing quickly tried to show off in front of the beautiful Miss Lu.
"How dare you go to such a dangerous place!" "Junior Brother Lin Xing is really powerful!" "..."
"Humph, of course. At that time, the situation was ——"
Just as Lin Xing was about to brag wildly, he was suddenly interrupted by the old man Dao Xuan, who started the routine sect - leader speech mode: "In this Seven - Peak Martial Competition, our Qingyun Sect has a great abundance of talents. After many rounds of competitions, finally... To avoid missing out on any pearls hidden in the ocean, two more disciples have been added to this experience, demonstrating the prosperity of our Qingyun Sect... The rise of the righteous path is just around the corner. After discussions among the various peaks... This time in Kunsang Mountain..."
The so - called sect - leader speech was to turn one sentence into ten sentences, and still make it logical, and even make people excited and not feel bored. At the same time, he would infuse the noble spirit into it, constantly teaching the disciples. And it was said in a way that was as natural as a flying antelope leaving no tracks, fully demonstrating the connotation of the sect - leader and the prosperity of the Qingyun Sect for the next generation...
This kind of speech required a cultivation of a hundred years to deliver.
This was the common thought of the six people below.
"Alright, that's all about this speech —— cough cough, about the experience. Lin Xing, come here first. This is the prize for the champion of the Seven - Peak Martial Competition, the Liuhe Mirror."
Damn it! Finally, the Liuhe Mirror!
Lin Xing trotted up excitedly.
