Chapter 157: The Eighth Layer of Transformation Realm
Mei Jianxue came to find him before Tianxuan returned to Xiaoshui City. Lin Yan knew this and couldn't help but feel grateful for Mei Jianxue.
Lin Yan did not forget that when Mei Jianxue was arguing with him just now, she once said that she helped conceal her news of her walking out of Dragon Island in front of Qingjue and Tianxuan. It can be imagined that Mei Jianxue has to bear not little pressure, because as long as Mei Jianxue is a little careless and reveals any information about him, she will immediately be seen by old foxes like Qingjue, especially Tianxuan.
This time Qingjue was killed mysteriously, Tianxuan would definitely rush back to Qingwu Gate to deal with the funeral. Mei Jianxue deliberately found himself to solve the matter just now before this time, which naturally avoided a lot of trouble for himself.
Lin Yan was always afraid of Tianxuan, who had only met once.
Not only because Tianxuan is knowledgeable, he is an old fox, but also because his strength is vulnerable in front of Tianxuan.
This made him feel insecure, so of course he could not leave any handle for Tianxuan to catch him, otherwise he would probably finish the game. You know, he killed the head of Qingwu Sect. As a master of Qingwu Sect, Tianxuan, who is the master of Qingwu Sect, will definitely kill him without hesitation.
Fortunately, Tianxuan probably wouldn't doubt him yet, which made him feel more at ease.
However, if he doesn't want to see Tianxuan, it doesn't mean he can really disappear.
In fact, the day after Mei Xue left, Lin Yan set out on the way to Qingwu Gate.
Although Lin Yan was very reluctant to go to Qingwu Sect, he naturally wanted to avoid Tianxuan, and he naturally didn't want to mourn the old man Qingjue.
But in order not to arouse others' suspicion, he must go and pretend to be very sad. Who asked his competition quota to be given by the Qingwu Sect? Besides, his relationship with the Qingwu Sect must be pretty good on the surface. Now that the head of a sect is dead, it would be really against common sense if he does not appear.
In this way, Lin Yan only made a little preparation, and after wearing a black dress, the boss in his heart reluctantly went out.
There are many people going to Qingwu Sect today, but Qingwu Sect is not lively at all.
Because Qing Jue died, all the people who went up to Qingwu Mountain came to pay their respects.
Seeing many people wearing clothes of the same color as themselves on the stone steps leading to the mountain, Lin Yan complained in his heart: Everyone has become a savage figure. At least from the surface, it is really impossible to tell who is close to Qingjue, and who has always been incompatible with Qingjue.
Of course, in terms of acting skills, Lin Yan will never lose to these seniors who are twenty or thirty years older than him.
A sad and regretful expression naturally appeared on Lin Yan's face, and it was always accompanied by going up the mountain. During this process, no one would think that Lin Yan killed Qing Jue, and no one would know that Lin Yan was secretly cursing Qing Jue in his heart at this moment.
After entering Qingwu Gate, he naturally received the treatment he deserved for the mourning guests. He walked a few times in front of the mahogany coffin where Qingjue was lying, expressing his regret for Qingjue's "dying young", and comforted Qingjue's family, and the condolences came to an end.
During this period, Lin Yan inevitably encountered Qingfeng.
Perhaps because of his death, his father was particularly sad. Although Qingfeng was surprised that his "love rival" could still come back from Long Island, he did not ridicule him on the spot. He only showed obvious hostility in his eyes.
Facing Qing Feng's unkind eyes, Lin Yan just smiled in his heart and did not take it seriously.
Lin Yan knew that it was Qing Jue's idea to send a killer to Long Island to kill him. Qing Feng must not know the details. Otherwise, as soon as Qing Jue died, Qing Feng should immediately point his finger at him, but Qing Feng did not.
So, now Qingfeng looks at himself, and still only regards himself as his "love rival" of "fighting for the junior sister of Snowfall".
"Young Master Qingfeng, the head of Qingjue has gone, please forgive me and follow the changes." Lin Yan said last and then left the mourning hall.
Lin Yan had no intention of provoking Qingfeng, but if Qingfeng still blocked himself in the pine and cypressed as he did at the beginning and threatened to break his legs, Lin Yan would not mind giving Qingfeng a little color, so that Qingfeng could know that he was no longer Lin Yan, who had only the strength of the innate realm.
Soon, the guests who came to pay their respects came out of the mourning hall one after another and left Qingwu Gate.
But Lin Yan could only stay where he was because Senior Tianxuan said that he would talk to him after he finished his work.
Although Lin Yan was reluctant in his heart, he could not refuse and had to stand near the mourning hall, with an extremely solemn expression on his face, which really made him feel uncomfortable.
A full hour later, it was probably because of the work that Tian Xuan sent someone to invite him to a private room.
In the room, Tianxuan looked energetic, but the bloodshot in his eyes showed that since the death of the leader Qingjue, the master and Dinghai Dinghai Needle, had worked a lot of effort and troubled for the safety of the Qingwu Sect.
After saying hello and having a polite greeting, Lin Yan quietly waited for Tianxuan to explain the purpose of the conversation.
Tian Xuan asked himself to come here, and he definitely did not regard himself as a suspect who killed Qingjue, but should have just asked what happened on Dragon Island.
As expected, after Tianxuan said a few words, the topic naturally fell on his escape from Dragon Island.
"Lin Yan, I thought I wouldn't see you from now on. I'm very happy that you could come back." Tian Xuan sat on the Grand Master's chair, stroked his long white beard, and looked kind to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan dared not express any dissatisfaction in front of this old fox, and immediately bowed and said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern for Senior Tianxuan. Boy's life is cheap. Maybe God hates taking me, so he actually let me survive, haha."
Lin Yan kicked this topic back as a ball.
Lin Yan knew that with Tianxuan's experience, he naturally understood that he did not want to discuss anything about Dragon Island. If Tianxuan really respected his little character, he would naturally not ask again.
But as Lin Yan expected, Tianxuan did not intend to give up just like that and could not get any information about Dragon Island.
So Tianxuan simply relied on his seniority as an elder: "Oh? I heard that the noise was very loud when Long Island was sealed. Even the lake water of the inland lake was evaporated. The fish and beasts inside were all dead, leaving only the skeletons. Lin Yan, you can come out of the Dragon Island safely. If you are very lucky, I don't believe it. Lin Yan, don't you mind telling me, the old man, what happened on Long Island, right?"
"I have lived for more than a hundred years, but I'm just curious about such a novel thing!"
Tianxuan held the teacup and drank a few sips of tea, covered it with a smile on his face.
Lin Yan cursed "Old Fox" in his heart, but calmly said the set of words he had prepared before going to Qingwu Mountain.
"Actually, the boy also thinks that it is really a very lucky thing to be able to come out of Dragon Island. If it weren't for God's mercy on me, I wouldn't believe it if I was beaten to death."
Lin Yan pretended to be glad to survive the disaster, his tone was filled with happiness and contentment, as if even every breath of air that he could breathe now was an endless gift from God to him.
"Oh? Lin Yan, your luck is really good? Tell me, let me listen too." Tian Xuan smiled.
Lin Yan said slowly, "When the Dragon Island suddenly changed, my younger brother's first reaction was to escape outside. But at that time, you also knew that I was the weakest among a group of trainees, only the strength of the innate realm, but unfortunately I ran into a Qingfeng wolf. Haha, the Qingfeng wolf is only in the early stage of the Transcendence Realm, and I can't make any trouble in front of any other trainees, but I just can't do it. The younger brother was entangled by the damn Qingfeng wolf, and his life was at stake. At that time, although I knew that the Dragon Island was changing, it was the younger brother's most concerned about to save his life under the claws of the Qingfeng wolf."
"Your strength is still not as good as the Qingfeng Wolf after all. When I thought I would die, the Dragon Island mutation finally broke out completely. I only felt that the air around me was moving rapidly. Later, I realized that the Dragon Island was shaking violently. Then the Qingfeng Wolf disappeared for no reason. The younger generation was also wrapped in a ball of air and broke away from the ground. However, it was probably because of the shock that he fainted. But good luck started from this time. I didn't expect that I was swept by a strange wind and was magically taken out of the Dragon Island. But maybe the seniors didn't believe it. When I woke up again, I found that there were a few red blood wild ginseng around me, and my strength had increased a lot. What surprised me even more was that I had been unconscious for several months!"
At this point, Lin Yan stopped.
This set of rhetoric seems to be talking about the Book of Heaven, but there are indeed no loopholes in the middle. Lin Yan is naturally not afraid that Tian Xuan will continue to get entangled in this issue.
After hearing this, Tianxuan could only laugh for a while, but never mentioned this matter again.
It is probably Tian Xuan also knew that it would be difficult to reach the sky if this younger generation in front of him who was young but very old in dealing with things.
Moreover, Tianxuan also believes that this junior is a friend but not an enemy after all, and with his own identity, he must not force him to ask questions.
So, Tianxuan could only change the topic and began to chat with Lin Yan about some topics that were not nutritious.
Although the atmosphere in the room was pretty good, the conversation ended in twenty minutes.
Tian Xuan personally sent Lin Yan out of the room.
Lin Yan was not proud of this, and he still did all the etiquette he should have done before leaving Qingwu Sect.
"Even an expert like Tianxuan wants to learn the secrets on Dragon Island through me. It seems that others will only be more interested in me. Poor me, I was just forced to stay on Dragon Island by those two giant dragons, but I caused so much trouble. It seems that I have to try to show up as little as possible before the city-wide competition is held."
After making up his mind, Lin Yan secretly went to Tiansha Gate the next day, naturally to thank Qiu Li for helping him escape from the Qingwu Gate that day.
After visiting the two sects in two days, Lin Yan moved out of the courtyard to be on the safe side and quietly ran to the hinterland of Niutou Mountain alone.
Lin Yan is preparing to stay here for a while until the city-wide competition is held half a month later.
During this period, I naturally ignored the affairs at the foot of the mountain and had to practice during this peaceful period.
With the help of the Bull Demon King, his strength has reached the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, and it is not a big problem to deal with this whole city competition. But when he thinks that if he enters the Tiandi City where masters walk all over the streets, let alone seeking justice from the Lin family, he must protect himself. With this strength, it is probably a big deal.
Therefore, for half a month, except for the necessary meals and sleeps, he was practicing wholeheartedly.
Continuing to cultivate vital energy according to half of the secret book of the nameless mind method is the focus of cultivation. Only by increasing the level and quantity of vital energy can we complete the breakthrough. Sword moves, star array diagrams and the four sounds of the bull and demon are all auxiliary means. Lin Yan has always seen this clearly.
Fortunately, although half of the secret book is extremely precious, it is not profound. In other words, the secret book expresses the most profound method of practicing vital energy in the most concise and easy-to-understand words, which saves Lin Yan a lot of time and allows Lin Yan to avoid many detours. At least from the first day of practicing vital energy until now, Lin Yan has not shown any sign of being possessed by the devil.
Half a month of continuous cultivation of vital energy in the battle sword space is equivalent to two and a half months outside. Even though the daily progress is small, the achievements achieved after a long period of accumulation are quite impressive. In addition, the previous swallowing of goblin energy, red blood wild ginseng and dragon egg made the vital energy in the body more abundant than that of warriors of the same level. Therefore, after half a month, Lin Yan finally made another breakthrough and successfully reached the eighth level of the Transcendence Realm!
Lin Yan was really happy to feel the vitality that was moving freely in his meridians.
Lin Yan did not expect that the time it took to break through from the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm to the eighth level would be so short. In addition to thanking the magical battle sword space, Lin Yan would of course be even more grateful to someone - Bull Demon King.
It was Bull Demon King who helped him reach the seventh level of the Transcendence Realm and helped him improve his physical fitness so that he could make his breakthrough today.
Moreover, the Bull Demon King was indeed magical. After forcibly improving his strength, he did not feel any discomfort.
The second magical power that has not been shown has finally emerged with this breakthrough, which is still related to the characteristics of the body.
Smart ears and eyes.
This is the second magical power that Lin Yan has obtained.
Unlike "copper and iron bones" that need to be used to play their roles, once the "clear ears and bright eyes" magical power is generated, it will completely improve your hearing and vision without any signs of subsidence.
The benefits this brings to Lin Yan are obvious.
In addition to being able to see clearly and hear clearly five times better than before, of course, Lin Yan's spiritual consciousness is more sensitive. It can be imagined that when fighting against others, relying on this magical power can make it easier to get a chance to gain a fighter and detect dangers more early.
In short, with the improvement of hearing and vision, his spiritual sense has been enhanced, allowing him to adapt to complex and changeable environments more.
After obtaining this magical power, Lin Yan was very happy. With it, it was equivalent to making up for some of his own disadvantages.
This disadvantage refers to the aspects of spiritual awareness when compared with others.
Lin Yan knew that since he embarked on the martial arts journey, it was only more than half a year. Compared with those of his peers who had been practicing for five or ten years, he had obviously gained less cultivation insights and experiences. Naturally, without the long cultivation time like others, he was always a weakness in spiritual awareness.
However, the emergence of the "clear ears and bright eyes" magical power automatically improved his spiritual sense a lot, and quickly made up for the shortcomings in this area.
...
After a simple cleaning, Lin Yan quickly went down Niutou Mountain and returned to the courtyard.
Tomorrow, the whole city competition for young masters in Xiaoshui City, which is once every two years, will begin.
Chapter completed!
