Chapter 80: The Main Character's Template! What, the Tang Family?! - 20,000 Words (Part 2)
What is Great Sun Burning Heaven? That's like a hand-rubbed nuclear bomb!
It would explode right above them, and if not stopped, the Spirit Mountain of the Moonseizing Sect would suffer.
At the very least, several mountains would be flattened! He was confident he could stop it, but that would expose his strength and arouse suspicion.
So if he didn't have to intervene, it was better not to.
"Lin Fan, the Sect Master."
Liu Ergou expressed his disbelief, "You're being too... cautious."
"Never mind, I'll keep my word. If there's a need to intervene, I won't hold back."
"That's a problem, and also..."
"You need to be careful."
Lin Fan advised.
Liu Ergou became even more reluctant upon hearing this.
Are you looking down on me?!
How dare you!
He had originally planned to take some healing pills, but now he stubbornly refused to do so.
I'll see just how shocking the aftermath of these two Fourth Firmament Realm youngsters' battle can be!
At the same time, in the sky above, both of them almost simultaneously completed their preparations.
"Heaven Splitting..."
Sizzle!
The longsword unsheathed, and Wen Jian's aura instantly transformed, becoming akin to a divine being...
"Great Sun Burning Heaven!"
A fireball flew out from Xiao Ling'er's palm.
"Sword Drawing Technique!"
Buzz!
The longsword slid out of its sheath, and a white silk thread slowly tore through the sky.
Great Sun Burning Heaven vs. Heaven Splitting Sword Drawing Technique!
Boom!!!
In an instant, a terrifying explosion engulfed the heavens and earth.
The massive fireball, carrying an inexplicable might, devoured everything, and the white line also vanished.
Then, under the gaze of the crowd, the fireball surged forward.
And then, it expanded at an even more terrifying speed.
Boom!!!
Another deafening blast, and in that moment, the sun seemed to hang in the sky, burning everything in its path!
"Not good!!!"
The six sect members' scalps tingled, and they were shocked beyond words.
"Block it!!!"
"Don't be careless!"
The Fifth Firmament Realm cultivators rushed out, doing their utmost to resist.
But...
Upon touching the aftermath of the Great Sun Burning Heaven, their defenses failed completely.
"Ah?!"
Liu Ergou's face twitched, and he inwardly knew something was wrong.
But he had already boasted...
"I'll suppress it!!!"
His hair and beard stood on end as he gave it his all.
He managed to stop it, preventing the Spirit Mountain from being consumed, but he, who was already severely injured, instantly felt a sweetness in his throat.
He quickly forced it down, feigning nonchalance.
But...
His heart trembled, and his hands shook violently.
Why didn't I listen to their advice?
If I had listened, prepared in advance, and taken healing pills, even if it was just for a moment, it wouldn't have been like this!
At most, I would have needed to rest for ten or half a month to recover to my peak state, but now? Even with healing pills, it would take around the same time, and I might not even recover to my prime condition!
"I'm fine right now, but it's all for show, just to keep up appearances!"
Liu Ergou looked up at the sky, where Xiao Ling'er and Wen Jian were engulfed by the blazing sun, and couldn't help but wonder, "Are all young people these days so extraordinary?"
I once witnessed a contemporary Saint-level figure in action, but I didn't see them being so powerful?
How come now...?!
"Thank you, Liu Ergou, for your intervention!"
"Sizzle, it's too incredible."
"If not for Liu Ergou, we might have..."
"They're too strong. Is this the power of a Saint-level figure? Despite being a whole realm apart, we couldn't even withstand the aftermath!"
By their side, the six sect elders and sect masters were astounded, their mouths agape.
But Liu Ergou had no time to listen to their complaints; he hurried to heal himself quietly, lest he faint in front of everyone and lose face!
"This woman... she's a demon."
The two Protectors, Great Powers of the Seventh Firmament Realm, were also shocked.
Jianzi must be extraordinary to be a Sword Master! Otherwise, how could he be a Sword Master?
A Sword Spirit Sacred Body should be this powerful, and moreover, the Heaven Splitting Sword Drawing Technique is one of the Moonseizing Sect's supreme techniques.
That seemingly light and airy white line was, in reality, capable of defeating even Fifth Firmament Realm cultivators at the second and third levels! Even if they didn't die, they would be left crippled.
But they were also shocked by the power of Xiao Ling'er's Great Sun Burning Heaven. When the two techniques collided and combined, even their aftermath was equivalent to the full-power strike of a Fifth Firmament Realm cultivator at the sixth or seventh level!
For the first time, they felt a sense of worry.
"Jianzi... he..."
"Is he about to lose?"
Sizzle!
A flash of sword light shone, as if splitting the heavens and piercing through the blazing sun.
The fire receded, and the crowd finally saw the current situation.
Xiao Ling'er was injured, blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
Across from her, Wen Jian stood, but he looked even more miserable. His clothes were completely burned away, leaving only the crucial areas covered, and even his hair was gone.
His skin was red, obviously burned by the high temperature.
The sword in his hand was also red-hot, and if it had been any hotter, it would have melted.
Xiao Ling'er swallowed the pill, enhancing her cultivation to the Sixth Level of the Fourth Cave Heaven Realm. She then counterattacked, engaging Wen Jian in a fierce battle.
Both of them were exhausted.
They no longer used terrifying techniques like Great Sun Burning Heaven and Heaven Splitting Sword Drawing Technique, but instead fought in close quarters!
There wasn't as much noise as before, but it was even more dangerous.
Sword Qi crisscrossed, and punches fell like mountains.
In just a few minutes, they had already exchanged hundreds of moves, both sides suffering injuries, but Xiao Ling'er emerged victorious, leveraging her secret techniques and the realm boost from elixirs to gain the upper hand. She seized the opportunity with keen insight and delivering a powerful punch straight to Wen Jian’s vulnerable side.
"Mountain-Crushing Strike!"
Thud! Wen Jian’s entire body trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, then flew backward like a cannonball, falling unconscious, unable to continue the fight.
“……”
The two Seventh Stage Protectors exchanged glances, their expressions extremely complicated.
Then, like a flash, before Wen Jian slammed into the ground, one of them gently caught him with a soft force to prevent further injuries.
“Fortunately.”
One of them sighed lightly, “Though the injuries are severe, they are not irreparable.”
“Only this Xiao Ling'er actually……”
They were bewildered.
This was the Moonseizing Sect!
Back its peak, it wouldn’t be surprising if a disciple of the Moonseizing Sect defeated the Sword Child, but now, this small Moonseizing Sect, with its hidden dragons and tigers, could even defeat the Sword Child?
The other Protector whispered, “The Sword Child was too hasty. He had just awakened his sacred body recently, and many of his techniques were yet to be mastered. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have lost.”
“Indeed.”
However, there was a thought they didn’t voice.
Even all that, Xiao Ling'er was no easy opponent.
She was definitely a Saint Child level talent!
Even if they waited a year, the Sword Child might still not be able to win. It would be better to……
However, Wen Jian seemed to sense their thoughts. He struggled to open his eyes and said, “I lost. Let’s go. We’ll come back in a year.”
“If I don’t defeat her, I will never claim invincibility. And……”
“My Dao Heart is unstable, my sword intent is impure!”
Upon hearing this, the two Protectors deflated significantly.
Forget it.
Sword cultivators value integrity the most, and the later the cultivation, the more they pursued a flawless Dao Heart and pure sword intent. If they were to destroy the Moonseizing Sect themselves, it might ruin the Sword Child's future.
“Then let’s go.”
The two of them supported Wen Jian and, transforming into sword light and fleeing.
A low voice resonated across the land: “Moonseizing Sect, it must be destroyed by our Spirit Sword Sect. Whoever acts will be our enemy!”
The sword light rapidly vanished.
……
In the distance, six experts from the Chen and Jiang families exchanged glances, all feeling their scalps tingle with dread.
They were shocked by the strength of a top-tier sect and even more by Xiao Ling'er’s might.
A same-stage battle, and she defeated the contemporary Sword Child?!
“Not good!”
In their shock, they sensed impending disaster.
“Moonseizing Sect, we can’t touch it. And with Xiao Ling'er’s strength, the Liu Family is too close to her. Once she becomes a Sixth Firmament Realm cultivator, our two families…… How many can stand against her?!”
Chen Six’s lips twitched. “Based on the combat strength she displayed, once she reaches the Sixth Firmament Realm, even just after breaking through, she could easily slay all six of us.”
The other five were displeased, wanting to retort.
But after careful thought, they could only bitterly smile.
This…… was the truth!
Yet, they were clearly from different eras!
Separated by generations, and now, they were about to be overwhelmed by the next wave?
This sense of powerlessness made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
In the Immortal Martial Continent, a 'thousand years' was generally considered an era.
In short, if two people were within a thousand years apart, they could be considered contemporaries. To dominate an era meant to be the pinnacle of talent and combat strength for a thousand years, the best of the age.
But they were all over a thousand, even two thousand years older than Xiao Ling'er.
Separated by generations.
Yet, they suddenly realized they might be suppressed soon.
What kind of peerless talent was this?
It made them feel powerless and despairing……
“Sigh, let’s retreat.”
“Fortunately, though they’ve allied, the Liu Family is the Liu Family, and the Moonseizing Sect is the Moonseizing Sect. Perhaps, we can try to befriend the Moonseizing Sect……”
“Fortunately, we didn’t directly attack the Moonseizing Sect just now. Perhaps there’s still a chance.”
They were unwilling to move again.
They were scared.
Even if waiting might give them a chance to eliminate the six sects, the current problem wasn’t the minor fish of the six sects.
“Speaking of……”
On the way back, Chen Six muttered, “The son of the Jade Lynx Palace’s leader is also unusual. He could stand against me for a few rounds at the Fourth Firmament Realm without dying. He must be a talent.”
“???”
The other five Sixth Firmament Realm experts exchanged glances. “When did talents become so common?”
Damn!
Why don’t our two families have such talents?!
……
“Sister is mighty!”
Xiao Ling'er descended, her aura immediately weakening, entering a weakened state.
The seven mascots immediately gathered around her, cheering incessantly.
After a brief exchange with them, Xiao Ling'er strode to Lin Fan, bowing deeply, “Master, your disciple has not disgraced the sect.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Yulin and the others from the six sects all froze.
Unbelievable and hard to contain!
You guys are also a third-rate sect!
A third-rate one!!!
And among third-rate sects, your overall strength is in the lower to middle tier. Your sect's disciple defeated a Saint Child level character at the same stage, and you actually say you haven’t disgraced the sect?
No, what kind of reputation do you have now?!
How do you make it sound like winning is reasonable and losing is shameful??
You’ve got it backward, haven’t you?!
However, what stunned them the most was that Lin Fan actually nodded slightly, without any surprise??
What the hell is going on in your heads?!
They were utterly baffled.
But Lin Fan nodded gently, helping Xiao Ling'er to her feet, smiling, “How are your injuries?”
"Some rest will be fine, it’s nothing serious. I trouble Master for your concern."
Xiao Ling'er replied with a light smile.
Truly wonderful.
This crisis, safely passed, the sect…… preserved.
At this moment, Xiao Ling'er felt particularly delighted.
She looked at her fellow disciples.
The seven mascots were still cheering, the five elders all smiled at her, the Master still had a look of everything under control, and as for Fan Brother……
She still couldn’t understand.
“But, not having dragged the sect down, this is really a great thing.”
However, she was unaware that her seemingly calm and composed master was actually 'a bundle of nerves' inside.
Fortunately, the Lingjian Sect was quite trustworthy.
But he couldn't be sure if this annual 'mini-crisis' had truly passed.
Stay vigilant!
"You go and rest, heal your injuries. Leave the rest to me."
"Yes, Master."
Xiao Ling'er left.
She always felt that her master was quite mysterious.
Moreover, she felt that the seemingly 3rd stage 5th layer master was even more formidable than herself.
...
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Shocked and numb, the six sect members finally reacted.
Immediately, they congratulated him.
"Congratulations, Lin Zongzhu. With such a peerless talent as your disciple, the Moonseizing Sect's revival is within reach! Truly within reach!"
"Hey~!"
But Lin Fan waved his hand and turned his head, "Let's not talk about that. We're all brothers!"
"Today, thanks to the sect's help, the losses weren't too severe. Next, let's quickly arrange the follow-up matters."
"Of course, of course."
The crowd, who had only superficially 'submitted', now changed their attitude and genuinely respected Lin Fan.
With such a level of genius disciple and the backing of the Lingjian Sect, they couldn't afford to offend him.
But fortunately, they didn't have to provoke him either.
Next...
Naturally, they would try to benefit from his success. If he achieved immortality, they might rise with him. Even if they couldn't reach that height, as long as they remained in an alliance, they could collect spirit herbs and exchange them for high-quality pills.
Soon, they began discussing the relevant matters.
First, they had to return and set up the sect defense array.
But they had to confirm that the two families had already left.
How could they be sure? Everyone looked at Liu Er Ye.
Liu Er Ye's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil.
You want me to go? In my current state, you're asking for my life!
"No rush. It's too troublesome for me to travel between the six sects alone. I believe the Liu family's experts will soon emerge from that secret realm...
About half a day later, the Liu family arrived.
Even the head of the Liu family, Liu Wanli, came in person, showing a humble attitude and expressing his apologies. Clearly, he had received news of Xiao Ling'er's terrifying talent!
This scene left the six sect members dumbfounded.
This is the Liu family!
A family comparable to a second-rate sect!
The head of the family was so accommodating!
Before they could calm down, they discussed the matter of the Moonseizing Sect's defense array being breached...
Liu Wanli immediately offered to help.
The Liu family was willing to set up an even more astonishing sect defense array for free.
The Liu family model!
It could withstand several attacks from 7th Firmament Realm experts. If a 6th Firmament Realm cultivator wanted to break the array, unless they were a formation master, it would take over ten 6th Firmament Realm experts half a day to breach it.
This was indeed a generous offer.
The six sect members couldn't help but feel envious.
We want one too!!!
However, the Liu family showed no intention of setting up an array for them, leaving them to silently admire from afar.
Lin Fan didn't hesitate either. He immediately promised that Xiao Ling'er had already mastered the art of refining the 5th Firmament Profound Realm Dan, and could supply them steadily in the future.
The Liu family was overjoyed.
Liu Wanli was even more pleased with his decision.
This was a profitable deal!
"The Chen family, the Jiang family..."
Before leaving, Liu Wanli stated, "This time, they held us back. There won't be a next time!"
"After I return, I'll immediately send people to set up the array."
"Thank you, Liu Family Head."
Lin Fan was very accommodating, personally seeing Liu Wanli off to the teleportation array...
He had to give face to his investor.
After all, the cooperation so far had been pleasant.
Liu Er Ye also left.
The stated reason was that the two families wouldn't dare to cause trouble, and the Lingjian Sect's actions today had proven their respect for the Moonseizing Sect, so there was no need to worry in the short term.
But in reality...
"I, Liu Er Ye, still want to maintain my dignity."
After that, the six sect members took their leave, returning to deal with the aftermath.
The Liu family experts had carefully searched and confirmed that the Chen and Jiang families had left, so they weren't too worried.
As for the possibility of a surprise attack...
Everyone felt it was unlikely.
After all, those two families probably didn't have the mood for it.
...
A sword light tore through the sky.
Wen Jian remained silent but didn't sink into despair.
As he healed, his sword intent became increasingly profound.
The two guardians of the Dao smiled upon seeing this.
This was the demeanor of a peerless talent! The so-called invincibility belief was never the certainty of never losing a battle, but rather the conviction that no matter the process, the final result would be their dominance over the world, suppressing an era.
Every failure wouldn't shake them but would instead inspire them to take more steady steps forward, breaking through their limits.
...
"Teng'er."
At the ruins of the Jade Lynx Palace, Wang Yulin, while leading the reconstruction, asked, "If you were to face Xiao Ling'er or Wen Jian, how would you fare?"
"..."
Wang Teng pursed his lips, then said after a moment, "I'm not without a chance of victory!"
"My son truly has the bearing of an emperor!"
Wang Yulin was delighted.
But then, Wang Teng lowered his voice and said, "Father, what if I were to join the Moonseizing Sect? Could I learn the Great Sun Burning Heaven?"
"Huh?!"
Wang Yulin was stunned.
Your words make me doubt the authenticity of your previous claims!
Wang Teng continued, "Now that we're in an alliance, and in three days, it's the grand opening of the sect. Although I already have cultivation, with my talent, if I join the Moonseizing Sect, Lin Shu shouldn't object, right?"
"I was born with the Kirin Heavenly Chart, and heavenly phenomena occurred at my birth..."
"With such a birth, if I could learn the Great Sun Burning Heaven, cough..."
Seeing his father's strange expression, Wang Teng quickly corrected himself, "I mean, although I can achieve immortality and become an emperor, the Great Sun Burning Heaven still has its merits..."
Wang Yulin: "..."
But soon, he realized.
"That's right! In three days, it's the grand opening of the sect!"
"Elders, please work hard and lead the disciples to rebuild the Jade Lynx Palace as quickly as possible. I'll take Teng'er to rearrange the sect defense array. If we lack materials, I wonder if the elders..."
"Ah?
The crowd was stunned.
Materials?
Weren't the previous items sold to buy medicinal ingredients and pills?
In the end, Wang Yulin's signature treasure could not be preserved.
He tearfully erased his soul imprint and sold it, exchanging it for various formation materials.
After all, how could a sect lack a Clan Defense Array?
Fortunately, they were all cultivators, and most of the elders had already reached the Fifth Stage, so their efficiency was extremely high, and they managed to rebuild the sect before the grand opening of the mountain gate.
The same was true for the five sects, including the Illusion Spirit Valley, the Five Thunder Sect, and the Crimson Flame Sect.
However, these sects, already impoverished from buying pills, became even poorer.
Desperately, they had no choice but to forage in the wilderness.
...
Midnight.
The Moonseizing Sect was bustling with activity.
Liu's family members were busy at various locations in the twenty-five Spirit Mountains, setting up new formations.
Liu Xun personally directed operations, and this time, he was full of enthusiasm.
However, Lin Fan quietly gathered the five elders and the seven mascots.
Today, they had faced a crisis, but it was also an opportunity!
It was already midnight, and the annual crisis had passed, although the process was somewhat different from what Lin Fan had imagined.
It was time to 'receive the reward,' but passively waiting was never Lin Fan's style.
"Elders, and you seven, I have a task for you."
"Soon, you will disperse and head down the mountain. Go to those mortal villages, towns, and the necessary roads for them to enter the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. Spread the news of what happened here."
"The more people you inform, the better."
"You don't need to reveal your identities or exaggerate. Just share the facts from an observer's perspective."
"I think..."
"At this moment, many people must be curious and want to know exactly what happened here."
As Lin Fan spoke, he couldn't help but smile.
Nearby cultivator sects and powers would naturally sense what had occurred here. Even if they were far away, they could still find out through their connections.
But ordinary cultivators and wandering cultivators were different.
Especially those who were already on the road, preparing to pay respects to the nearby sects, were potential disciples.
They must have witnessed the battle between Xiao Ling'er and Wen Jian, but they didn't know the full story.
Spreading this news might scare some people away, but it would undoubtedly attract more.
With more people...
Wouldn't there be more potential protagonists?
Moreover, Lin Fan wasn't just recruiting potential protagonists this time; he also needed to enroll ordinary disciples.
Labor disciples, outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples—if the five elders spotted promising talents, they could take them in as their direct disciples.
