Chapter 368: How Can the True Qi Be Golden! (Fifth
"How is that possible!" Hearing that Wan Jin didn’t even survive a single move, Wan Long simply couldn’t believe it. Wan Jin could withstand two moves under his command, so how could it be possible that he didn’t even survive one move under Lin Feng’s hand. He knew very well what kind of person Wan Jin was; Wan Long was too familiar with his strength. No one of the same level could defeat him, yet in front of Lin Feng, he didn’t last a single move. It was simply impossible.
And it was Lin Feng who did it, how could someone so young have such strength. If that was true, it was definitely like seeing a ghost in broad daylight. In the Cultivation World, there has never been such a freak!
"Master, that Lin Feng is absolutely a AAA-ranked expert," Wan Jin said, seeing that his master still didn’t believe him, and immediately added on, that instant Lin Feng exhibited abilities that were definitely of AAA rank. If it weren’t for Lin Feng knocking him out, he wouldn’t believe that such a young man could be a AAA-ranked expert.
"Moreover, he is truly formidable—I used all my strength to defend myself, but I couldn’t block even one of his palms. He must be an expert who cultivates both internally and externally." Wan Jin still found it unbelievable as he recalled that moment. How could someone as young as Lin Feng be an expert in both internal and external cultivation, but that palm just then was definitely something that only an expert of both could do. A pure external cultivation expert couldn’t possibly break through his protective True Qi and leave him without it in an instant, resulting in such heavy injuries.
"Also, this Lin Feng is definitely an oddity. Just when I was about to hit him, he didn’t even move an inch, then his entire body seemed to grow bigger in an instant. He toughed out my palm strike, actually sucked my palm in and then with a sudden exertion, flung me away. I’ve never seen such a move before, nor have I heard of it."
Wan Jin now looked at Lin Feng and didn’t know what to say anymore because all the preconceived notions he had were shattered by Lin Feng in an instant. A man in his early twenties could withstand the strike of a peak AA-ranked expert like him, and then with an incredibly bizarre move, knock him out cold. How could that be possible! Lin Feng was too formidable, who on earth was he...
"Don’t say anymore, I understand. Stay here," Wan Long waved his hand signaling his disciple Wan Jin to stop talking. However, his heart was already in turmoil. Who exactly was Lin Feng? An ordinary cultivator could never be so powerful. At any time, for a cultivator to achieve anything noteworthy, they had to rely on various Spiritual Medicines. Without a strong backing, it was impossible to become a prodigy. And someone like Lin Feng, who can knock out Wan Jin in one move, it was beyond imagination.
Currently, among the younger generation, only the Young Patriarchs of the major Prominent Families could be AAA-ranked experts. There was never any talk of other young people being AAA-ranked experts. What’s going on? Who the heck is Lin Feng’s master? From what Wan Jin said, Lin Feng must be an expert in both internal and external cultivation. That’s even more impossible. There’s a well-known rule among cultivators that only those who have reached the S rank can truly practice both internal and external cultivation.
But if Lin Feng, being so young, is a AAA-ranked expert, that alone is incredibly against the heavens. If he is also an expert of both internal and external cultivation, it is unfathomable who his master could be. Such a capable person couldn’t have been brought up by any major Prominent Family, so what exactly is Lin Feng’s background?
No matter how much Wan Long thought about Lin Feng’s background, he couldn’t figure it out, because there simply wasn’t anyone who could have taught such a formidable disciple. In the end, with no other option, Wan Long shook his head and decided not to think about it any longer—no matter how formidable Lin Feng was, he couldn’t be more powerful than him. He would take care of him shortly.
"Lin Feng, what do you mean by this? You sealed my disciple Wan Gang’s meridians, and now you’ve left Wan Jin in such a state. Do you think my Three Stars Sect can be bullied, that I, Wan Long, can be bullied?" Wan Long walked over to Lin Feng and started questioning him. All of his disciples had been beaten by Lin Feng, and as their master, he had to step in. Otherwise, how could he still call himself their master? And with both of his disciples seriously injured by Lin Feng, if he didn’t take action, his Three Stars Sect would lose all its credibility.
"I don’t mean anything by it. Your disciples were asking for it. I didn’t even start it; they were the ones who attacked first. So, knocking them out is already going easy on them, otherwise, you wouldn’t even be able to see them if I went all out." Lin Feng, upon hearing Wan Long, shook his head. No wonder Wan Gang thought this way—as it turns out, his master behaved the same. Without asking any questions, he just pinned the blame, as if all reason was on his side. It seemed like their unreasonableness ran in the family.
"So according to you, you’re in the right for beating my disciples—they all deserved it, and you were completely in the right?" Wan Long got even more furious on hearing Lin Feng’s words, as if his disciples deserved to be beaten and Lin Feng thought he was invincible. Without saying more, he was already nearing the S rank, and Lin Feng dared to talk to him like that, clearly lacking respect.
"They indeed deserved it. Without learning the martial virtues before martial skills, those lacking in virtue, no matter how powerful, will eventually be destroyed by others. Even if it’s not me they encounter, any other expert would result in the same fate for them." Lin Feng looked at Wan Long in front of him without a shred of politeness and spoke without mincing his words. With the behavior of these Three Stars Sect disciples, even if they didn’t run into him, they would surely run into someone else who would teach them a lesson.
"Even if my disciples have faults, that’s for me to deal with. It’s none of outsiders’ business, and it’s certainly not for you to discipline them. My disciples don’t need your instruction! Who are you anyway? A brat dares to talk big here. Who are you to look down on my Three Stars Sect’s people like that? Don’t think too highly of yourself. In front of me, you’re nothing. If I don’t beat you into submission today, I’m not Wan Long. Just because you’re someone at the AAA level, you’re this arrogant, not knowing your place in the slightest!"
Hearing Lin Feng say his own disciples deserved to be beaten, Wan Long, who was already on the verge of exploding, was now completely irate. What did Lin Feng count for, daring to prod and point fingers here? Although it seemed that Lin Feng was also a AAA-class expert, within the same rank, no one could stand against him, let alone a young man in his early twenties—it was even less likely that he would be a match. After the day’s events, he had to take care of Lin Feng no matter what, otherwise his reputation as the Sect Leader of the Three Stars Sect would be utterly ruined if word got out.
"Then I’ll teach you a lesson first!" Lin Feng, hearing the filth that came from Wan Long’s mouth, was also enraged. This kind of person could never teach good disciples; if the disciples were unreasonable, the master was even less reasonable. Since that was the case, they would have to see whose fists were bigger. Lin Feng did not hesitate to strike such a person.
With that thought, Lin Feng quickly moved and threw a punch at Wan Long. He didn’t hold back at all. He had already guessed that Wan Long must be a AAA-class expert. There was no need to hold back, otherwise he might suffer losses, something Lin Feng wouldn’t want.
"Whoosh!"
As the punch neared Wan Long, Lin Feng’s fist emitted a faint golden glow, accompanied by the sound of thunder, striking at Wan Long. The ground was whipped up into a cloud of dust by the fist wind, closely following Lin Feng’s punch.
Seeing Lin Feng strike, Wan Long was also shocked and instantly went on full alert. True Qi circulated in a flash, and he unleashed a thunderous punch with the intention of seeing just how formidable this Lin Feng, who dared to be so arrogant in front of him, really was!
"Whoosh!"
Seeing Wan Long’s explosive counterattack, Lin Feng also pushed his punch speed to the limit. Just at that moment, Huang Shi, who was watching from outside, saw Lin Feng’s fist disappear in an instant. His eyes widened in shock, at a loss for words...
"Boom!"
The fists of Lin Feng and Wan Long finally collided, making a deafening noise like two cars crashing into each other. Then from the place where their fists met, a wave of impact spread in all directions, with the ground’s dust spreading outward along with the shockwave. The stone pavement on the ground shattered into a cracked web, and then what was truly astonishing was that a crater about four to five meters in diameter had been formed on the spot where they had exchanged blows...
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
After the brief exchange of a single punch, both men were knocked back several steps by the force of the blow, then they steadied themselves and faced each other.
"Who are you, and why does your fist radiate a faint golden light?" Wan Long couldn’t help but ask as he now looked at Lin Feng, because the punch he had just felt was incredibly heavy. Not only was the power immense, but the faint golden glow had also been quite disconcerting. He had never heard of True Qi having a color, let alone seen it. Normally, when cultivators release True Qi, it is colorless. So what was the deal with his faint golden True Qi?
How was it possible? A shock went through Wan Long’s heart. How could Lin Feng withstand his power? Just what level was he? Wan Long wouldn’t be shocked if it was a normal AAA-class person, but he felt that Lin Feng’s fist could not be classified simply as AAA-grade, yet his power was almost equal to Wan Long’s. How could this be!
What kind of power was this, and why does True Qi have a color? It was terrifying enough that he was so strong at such a young age, but what was more terrifying was that Wan Long couldn’t see through Lin Feng’s level at all. He didn’t understand what Lin Feng was cultivating or anything about him. He had never encountered anyone using colored True Qi. Who... who exactly was he, and what on earth was... going on!
