THE MARTIAL GOD

THE MARTIAL GOD
Chapter 20: The Birth of the Legend



The drumming sound of the Precipice of Zhangu had given an unprecedented shock to the members of the Yun Hai Sect. Every time they thought the sound of the drum beating would stop, another one sounded.


When the sound of the seventh drum rang out, the Yun Hai sect members calmed down. Only the pure sound made from beating the drums was left in complete silence that had spread throughout the Sect.


The entire Yun Hai sect members were still in confusion, but many felt lucky to arrive at the sect. It was as if the vibrations in the air and the sounds coming from the drum were the only ones left in the universe. It was as if the entire Yun Hai Sect and even the entire universe were enveloped by the power of that drum.


Nan Gong Ling stood with her hands clasped behind her back. He gazed into the distance towards the Cliff of the Cliff with an amazed expression on his face. Nan Gong Ling's robe swung the breeze blowing over the area. No sound from him. Everyone standing around him, Mo Cang Lan, Mo Xie, the Yun Hai Sect disciples, Lin Qian and even Chu Zhan Peng gazed into the distance. They felt that on the mountain there was a god hitting his war drums to announce that he was born. The new God of War has come down.


Inside the cave in the mountains, the old man wearing a black robe had stood up and stared at the hanging cliff a little surprised. He had a solemn and respectful facial expression.


The old man wearing a black robe protected the Cliffs of the Gorge, which was a sacred place for the Yun Hai Sect. Although some people knew he existed, Sect Patriarch Nan Gong Ling, when he saw this elder he would submit out of respect.


The old man had seen that Lin Feng was only at the eighth Qi layer and that his spirit was quite weak, he said, so he had made it through the passageway that led to the abyss with the toughest test in hopes that Lin Feng would be able to return in one piece when faced with the difficulty of the exam. He never thought that given the circumstances, a disciple of only the eighth Qi Layer while using a weak snake spirit would be the first to successfully pass that test.


What impressed the old man was that the sound of drum blows seemed to remain in the air for a long time and the entire Yun Hai Sect was consumed in that voice. The seventh drum beat was heard.


In the thousand-year history of the Yun Han Sect, such a miracle had never happened. No one has ever managed to make the drums hit so many times and on top of that the sound has never been this deep.


The old man entered the passageway towards the Cliff of Zhangu. He walked up the stairs step by step with the same respectful and serious expression on his face as before. It seemed like he was expecting the eighth drum beat.


At that moment, the sword Qi still filled the atmosphere completely creating an unknown force, but it was no longer a mess. It followed Lin Feng's hand where he held his long sword. Lin Feng at that moment looked invincible


"The "power of the sword, can be found everywhere. '' Thought Lin Feng with a smile. These drums are amazing. There must be enough force in each attack for the drum to produce a sufficiently powerful counterattack that can then be used to produce a beating sound. This was exactly what Lin Feng was doing at that moment. He produced stronger attacks to increase the sword force in the atmosphere to attack the drums so that they could produce a punching sound.


“I've made the drum hit seven times. Let's make them beat for the last time. That would be eight beats for eight drums. The latter must be perfect and I will pass the Precipice of Zhangu examination. Then I must thank that Elder, ” said Lin Feng. At that moment Lin Feng thought that this was actually the easiest test in Heaven Mountain within the Cliff Cliff and the Elder was really soft with his request.


He held his long sword in his hand and the entire atmosphere fused with his sword and absorbed the overwhelming energy.


"COME THE LAST DRUM!" Shouted Lin Feng. His sword Qi turned into a shining light and the drums struck one last time.


"GOOOOOONONNNNNNNGGGG" the last drum let out a sound that spread throughout the atmosphere of the Yun Hai Sect to the point that the mountains and quivered. The sound of shaking lasted for a while. Lin Feng's Dark Spirit who was behind him disappeared from sight. Triumphantly he sat down, helplessly remaining, he slumped his body on the floor.


“Now I should be able to get some pills to cure Han Man. "Although Lin Feng was exhausted, he had a wide smile on his face.


A loud rumbling sound suddenly sounded. The huge stone door of the ravine opened. There was a silhouette visible inside the door. It was the old man wearing the black robe who had directed him to this trial.


Seeing that it was an old man and remembering the familiar black robe, Lin Feng while fighting he once again got up to his feet. He then said to the old man, “ Elders, have I finally passed the test? Can I get the pills I need for my friend? "


The old man looked at Lin Feng who had a smile on his face while still looking completely stunned. Soon after that an unknown expression appeared on his face. Lin Feng was unaware of what he had done, but perhaps he had angered this esteemed elder. He did not come with the goal of achieving something unprecedented. He had just come to get medicine for his injured friend and did not care about what he had achieved within the sect. Status and power were meaningless if he had no friends to share with them.


“Thank you, Dear Elder. '' Lin Feng was surprised. According to the old man, one pill was enough to heal Han Man's injuries. Such pills were extremely precious. The old man gave him a jar. Understanding the status and strength of the old man, Lin Feng knew the old man was not trying to fool him but wondered why he would go this far for such an easy test.


“You passed the test so you deserve it. However you must remember this, do not share the fact that you passed the Precipice of Zhangu examination with anyone else.'' The old man explained to Lin Feng. Lin Feng had only reached the eighth Qi layer and had managed to produce eight drum beats. No matter how Lin Feng had done that, his talent in the entire history of the Yun Hai Sect had never been seen before. He's a real genius. The old man hoped that Lin Feng would not attract the attention of a bad person before he had a chance to bloom completely.


In the Xue Yue Country including the Yun Hai Sect, there were certain people who secretly hunted and killed extremely skilled and outstanding disciples before they could gain strength. It is not uncommon for jealousy to be born of those who are gifted. Today the sound of drums had been heard throughout the entire region of the Sect, it would probably make him the biggest target within the Sect. It would be best if he could lie down and not cause trouble, then after a few years he would shine, otherwise his path would be completely bloody.


"good. '' Lin Feng did not clearly understand why the black-robed old man said that, but he still nodded his head.


The black-robed old man raised his head and looked into the distance: “Protector Bei, bring him back. ”


Lin Feng was stunned. There are only dangerous cliffs and steep cliffs here. One could see very far in the distance when looking around and there was clearly no one else around. Obviously the old man would not speak in the air.


"Okay, young man, let's go back" said a voice coming from the middle of the mountain in the distance. Lin Feng raised his head and saw someone fall from the sky. This old man had a familiar-looking face and had two gigantic wings, two dream-like white wings. They look like stork wings. This is a stork spirit.


“Strong cultivators can fly and they can even take people through the sky. I would never have thought that the Yun Hai Sect had such a Cultivator. '' Lin Feng found the scene really interesting. He felt a storm was coming and he could not stand firm or stay away.


Sand and small stones flew through the air. A stork-like silhouette landed on an overhanging cliff. Lin Feng stared: it was him!


Lin Feng knew the person who had appeared. It was the old man from the Xing Chen Pavilion. He still looked sluggish and had a neglected appearance. He looked the same as the last time, but with a pair of giant wings on his back.


'' The elder in charge of protecting Xing Chen Pavilion was as expected, not even a little ordinary. '' Said Lin Feng reassuring himself.


"Young man, I'll introduce you. This old friend of mine is one of the protectors of the Yun Hai Sect. You can call him Protector Kong. I am one of the protectors of the Yun Hai Sect as well and you can call me Protector Bei. ”The old man's mood seems very good. Sect Protectors had an incredible status in the hierarchy, to the extent that even if the Patriarch of the Sect wanted to see them, he would not dare to be insolent.


The people who became protectors showed extreme devotion and loyalty towards the Sect. Their abilities were far above the abilities of the other disciples. They only cared about the Sect; that was the only thing on their minds. How could Protector Bei be unhappy that Lin Feng had passed the Precipice of Zhangu examination?


"Protector Bei, Protector Kong. '' Lin Feng smiled at the two old men. Two Sect protectors .. They were probably within the strongest sect Cultivators.


Protector Kong silently nodded his head. Shortly after, he returned to the cave. His body simply vanished into the darkness of the passageway.


“My old friends spend time in this cave every day. It was common for him not to talk for days. He never talks much so it doesn't matter. “Protector Bei shook his head. He then said to Lin Feng: "We will also leave. ”


The spirit crane appeared for a while, its wings flapping in the air giving a storm-like sensation. Lin Feng only felt his body flying in the air guided by a mysterious force. There was nothing under his feet, only the distant ground. Lin Feng had a feeling he was dreaming. In the previous world, it was impossible to fly in the air like this without the help of technology.


Yet in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, extreme strength and might allowed some Cultivators to look down on the world from above.
