"Feeling the huge gap, do you want to crawl into a hole now?"
"Did my strength make you all lose face? If so, I'm sorry, because that's exactly what I wanted!"
Feeling the terrified and worshipful gazes of the crowd, Liang Hao's vanity was greatly satisfied.
True Person Zisong never expected a Nirvana Realm expert to appear in his sect.
He had lived for over three hundred years and still hadn't touched the threshold of the Nirvana Realm, stuck at the half-step Nirvana Realm for two hundred years.
"Alright, Liang Hao, don't scare them."
Shen Zhao waved his hand, signaling Liang Hao to step back.
After the pressure dissipated, he said to True Person Zisong, "Rest assured, our Public Arbitration Council is all about fairness and justice. We won't inexplicably make things difficult for anyone.
We just want to prove what kind of genius your precious disciple truly is, that's all."
True Person Zisong's arrogance was clearly not as strong as before. He cupped his hands and said, "I await instructions from the Public Arbitration Council's Enforcement Elder."
Shen Zhao said, "Since this genius Lin is so heaven-defying, I assume dealing with disciples from other sects shouldn't be a problem, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Lixian immediately stood up. "That's right. Since he's a genius, he naturally wouldn't fear exchanging pointers with disciples from other sects. My Tianqing Sect is willing to take the lead. I wonder if your precious disciple dares to accept the challenge?"
True Person Zisong glanced back at Lin Feng, and saw Lin Feng nod confidently.
"Alright, since this little genius Lin has agreed, I will send a disciple from my sect to accept the challenge."
He Lixian didn't give True Person Zisong a chance to back out and immediately called his personal disciple: "Bai Mu, you will exchange experience with this little genius, Lin Feng."
"Yes, Master!"
A Tianqing Sect disciple, about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, gracefully flew onto the high platform.
Upon seeing Bai Mu take the stage, True Person Zisong and the other Qingyun Sect disciples turned green with anger.
"He Lixian, aren't you going too far! You actually sent a Soul Sea Realm, second-rank disciple to deal with my beloved disciple! My disciple is only at the peak of the Spirit Gathering Realm!"
True Person Zisong roared in frustration.
Not wanting to face the accusations from everyone, that old fox He Lixian remained unfazed, his nostrils turned up towards the sky, and he spoke shamelessly: "Since they are all personal disciples, what's wrong with me letting my disciple have a match with your disciple?
My disciple isn't some kind of genius, he's definitely no match for your genius disciple, so what's the rush?"
True Person Zisong was furious but was stopped by Lin Feng: "Master, trust me."
"Feng'er, do your best. I'll be watching you."
Now that things had come to this, True Person Zisong couldn't interfere and could only retreat to the side, watching his beloved disciple with concern.
Bai Mu clasped his hands towards Lin Feng: "Junior Brother Lin, please."
Lin Feng pouted: "Please go easy on me, Senior Brother Bai Mu."
After the two exchanged pleasantries, they both assumed their stances.
Liang Hao asked, "Big Brother, who do you think will win?"
Ding Buer laughed, "Isn't this obvious? Soul Sea versus Spirit Gathering? You could beat him blindfolded!"
Shen Zhao said, "No, Bai Mu isn't a match for Lin Feng."
Ding Buer asked in surprise, "Master Shen, are you serious?"
Shen Zhao said, "In terms of pure strength, Lin Feng couldn't possibly beat Bai Mu. But you don't know, Lin Feng has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Let's wait and see."
At this point, he quietly said to Fahai, "Master Fahai, can you reveal Lin Feng's true colors? The next match depends on you."
"Amitabha. The sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the shore!"
Fahai recited a Buddhist name, then suddenly asked,
"After it's done, can this lowly monk obtain quite a few treasures from him?"
At this moment, the two people on stage, who had been still, began to radiate fighting spirit.
Next moment, Bai Mu took the initiative, unleashing the Tianqing Sword Technique to strike directly at Lin Feng's vital points.
Lin Feng's eyes turned cold, and he used the Green Mountain Swordplay to defend and wait for an opening. The two of them were instantly entangled, and in a single instant, they exchanged dozens of moves.
Seeing this scene, everyone was incredibly shocked.
"My god, guess what I saw! A Spirit Gathering Realm cultivator can actually fight on par with a Soul Sea Realm cultivator!"
"Am I dreaming?"
"Could it be that the cultivation of the entire world has decreased a thousandfold, but his hasn't?"
The audience below were in constant discussion, while on the stage, the shadows of swords and lights intertwined, making it hard to tell who was winning.
"Senior Brother Sect Leader, why is Bai Mu entangled with a Spirit Gathering Realm cultivator for so long?"
"This Bai Mu, he just likes to play around. His personality is like mine, always enjoying toying with his opponents, giving them a glimmer of hope before extinguishing it mercilessly. Sigh, I'll have to give him a good talking-to when we get back."
"I see."
The three of them exchanged smiles, completely oblivious to the fact that things might be about to spiral out of control.
After ninety moves, both of them landed simultaneously.
Bai Mu retreated three steps, while Lin Feng retreated five. It was clear that Bai Mu had the upper hand in swordsmanship, but he still couldn't do anything to Lin Feng.
"Good kid, your body technique is truly strange. This isn't the Qingyun Sect's light body technique, is it?"
"I obtained this set of body techniques when I was ten years old, senior brother. You flatter me."
"Very good, now the game is over. It's time for you to see my true strength."
Bai Mu dropped his longsword, immediately turning his hand into a palm and executing the Overturning Heaven Palm.
"Watch my Overturning Heaven Palm!"
As his words fell, a wave of qi in mid-air transformed into a green palm print, heavily descending towards Lin Feng's head.
Lin Feng decisively abandoned his sword. Golden light suddenly erupted from his body, forming a three-foot-wide qi wall around him. He also quietly took out a purple talisman and quickly crushed it.
The next moment, as the giant palm descended, the unavoidable palm force was absorbed and dissipated. Then, Lin Feng pushed both palms towards Bai Mu.
A doubled Overturning Heaven Palm rapidly rushed towards Bai Mu.
Bai Mu, caught off guard by this change, desperately tried to resist.
Boom~
A massive explosion erupted, sending Bai Mu flying off the stage, spewing out a mouthful of tomato juice.
"What!"
Everyone was caught off guard by the sudden turn of events and gasped in unison.
Bai Mu had already lost consciousness when he landed.
Looking back at Lin Feng, he was still standing in the same spot, completely unfazed.
True Person Zisong, witnessing this, was surprised but also wore a look of pride. He glanced at the crowd, as if saying, "See? This is my personal disciple!"
However, the counterattack Lin Feng had just unleashed was clearly not one of his own unique techniques, but he didn't mind. After all, he knew that Lin Feng had already mastered some skills before becoming his disciple.
At this moment, the faces of He Lixian and his group had turned the color of pig liver. They could only order someone to help Bai Mu back to recover from his injuries.
A Spirit Gathering Realm cultivator defeated a Soul Sea Realm cultivator. Just how heaven-defying was this kid's talent?
Seeing True Person Zisong's smug expression, He Lixian felt a myriad of grass-mud horses stampede through his heart.
Just as True Person Zisong was about to vindicate Lin Feng, Shen Zhao spoke up, "Young Hero Lin, was the talisman you used just now the Netherworld's Qi-Reversal Talisman?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Lin Feng trembled slightly upon hearing this.
True Person Zisong immediately roared, "Young Hero Shen, I don't know what grudges you have with my beloved disciple, but why do you keep targeting him! What Netherworld are you talking about!"
Lin Feng also said, "I used a Mysterious Gate talisman just now, given to me by a wandering Daoist when I was young, who said it could save my life at a critical moment."
"Is that so?" Shen Zhao sneered, "Purple and blue talisman paper have always been essential for the talisman masters of the Nine Nether Yellow Springs Realm to inscribe talismans. The Mysterious Gate talismans of the other eight realms are all based on yellow paper,
"And the condition for activating the purple talisman must be the cultivation of Nine Nether evil techniques. Lin Feng, do you want to explain how you activated the purple talisman in your hand?"
Lin Feng clenched his fists. "I told you, these talismans were truly given to me by a wandering Taoist. I don't understand what you're talking about."
"Is that so?" Shen Zhao sized up Lin Feng with a playful look.
At this moment, Mo Xinchen, who had been silent, spoke up, "Young Hero Shen, are you mistaken? We didn't sense any evil Qi at the scene just now."
"The reason you can't sense the evil Qi is because the evil technique he cultivates isn't yet proficient enough. It can be completely covered up with orthodox Mysterious Gate cultivation methods. As long as he reverses his meridians, he can convert the evil Yuan he cultivates into orthodox Mysterious Gate spiritual Qi. It's normal that someone who earns three thousand a month can't see through it."
Mo Xinchen was immediately at a loss for words.
After Shen Zhao finished explaining, he looked at Lin Feng again, his gaze sharp and piercing. "Lin Feng, I'll give you one chance. Tell me the origin of the evil technique you cultivate, and perhaps I can consider sparing your life!"
Lin Feng said angrily, "Young Hero Shen! Why are you defiling my reputation like this? We have no grievances in the past, nor any enmity recently. Why are you slandering me like this!"
"Slander? Heh..."
If Shen Zhao hadn't lived through nine lifetimes and understood this person's wicked nature, that he wouldn't do anything that involved other people, he might have believed this guy's innocent nonsense.
"Alright, since you say you haven't cultivated evil techniques and have nothing to do with the Nine Nether, then prove it to us again."
"How do I prove it?"
"Amitabha."
As Lin Feng finished speaking, Fahai slowly rose and walked towards the high platform.
After Fahai came before Lin Feng, he put his hands together and said, "Benefactor, the sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the shore. This humble monk gives you a chance to be honest."
Lin Feng's pupils shrank: "What do you mean?"
"The little monk cultivates the Prajna Heart Sutra, which specifically counters all evil auras. If the benefactor has a clear conscience, would you dare to compete with this little monk?"
Upon hearing this, a bead of cold sweat slowly trickled down Lin Feng's forehead.
He looked at True Person Zisong, casting a pleading gaze.
However, True Person Zisong was currently in a rage, eager to prove that his disciple was unrelated to the evil cultivators. He immediately said, "Feng'er, prove it to them. Your master believes he hasn't misjudged you."
"Junior Brother Lin, I believe in you!"
Lu Xuanji also cast a trusting glance at Lin Feng, albeit a timid one.
Lin Feng took a deep breath, his resentment towards Shen Zhao deepening further, but he still decided to try his luck.
"Master, if that's the case, then please be merciful!"
Shen Zhao saw this scene and couldn't help but smile.
"A waste who still has to rely on women to succeed. Let's see how long your disguise can last today!"
Fahai and Lin Feng confronted each other for a moment. Lin Feng decided to take the initiative and quickly end the battle, preventing his secrets from being exposed.
"Master, take this!"
This move was the Tianqing Sect's River and Mountain Palm, with palm force flowing continuously, like a school of fish crossing the river.
However, Fahai didn't dodge or evade, staying in place, closing his hands, and silently reciting a mantra.
Clang!
The next moment, the Arhat Golden Bell appeared, and the River and Mountain Palm's force immediately struck the energy shield.
In an instant, the sound of Buddhist chanting filled his ears, making Lin Feng dizzy and disoriented. The original, orthodox Mysterious Gate qi within his body began to exhibit a strange, black-and-green, demonic aura.
"Ugh!"
Struck by the chanting, Lin Feng momentarily lost his mind. His face contorted with malice, and he instinctively channeled his inner energy, activating the Corpse Blood Palm, and slamming it heavily towards Fahai.
Seeing this scene, True Person Zisong's face turned ashen.
It's over!
His own disciple, as expected, harbored a wicked skill.
