THE MARTIAL GOD

THE MARTIAL GOD
Chapter 24: A Strong Heart



Mo Xie looked down and saw a dark shadow moving under his skin. It gave him an ice-cold sensation that ran along his spine. This kind of nightmare moving under the skin of its victim? He could sense that he no longer had control over his own body.


Mo Xie could barely move his body under the power of the shadows. He could sense that there was a man facing him and that the man was using his energy to paralyze him through the shadows but he could not detect where he was or who he was. As if he doesn't exist.


“That's actually him. "Said Nan Gong Ling whose eyes were flashing. She's stunned. He could not believe that the person controlling the shadow was actually inside Mo Xies body. The shadow suddenly emerged from Mo Xies back.


"Mo Xie, come back!!.." Shouted Mo Cang Lan. He was one of the Great Elders of the Yun Hai sect, how could he not be afraid of what he had just witnessed. He was already sixty years old and had extensive knowledge of the world's cultivation techniques and knew many types of spirits. He knew about the origin of this shadow and exactly how dangerous this situation was.


“It was a shadow spirit. A very mysterious but dangerous spirit. It was said that if a Cultivator had a shadow spirit and awakened, the Cultivator would be able to penetrate into the body of another person and take full control of the bodily functions. Some powerful spirits can even stop a person from breathing while inside them, forcing them to suffocate without being able to defend themselves. The scariest part of a Shadow Cultivator is the fact that once inside your body, how will you attack them without causing any damage to yourself. With each attack you can cause the shadow no damage but weaken your own defense against the shadow."


The shadow spirit could bring fear to even the harshest Cultivators. If the owner of the shadow spirit was evil and wanted to kill someone, it would be very easy for them to do so. No one wanted to offend the shadow spirit owner no matter what their cultivation level was. Mo Cang Lan obviously did not want her family to offend a shadow cultivator.


Mo Xie took a few steps back while looking extremely pale. He can't do anything. He was so shocked by what had just happened to him, a powerful force completely consumed him.


“Greetings fellow cultivator, I don't know who you are or how we can help you, but we will try. What brings you to us? ”Mo Cang Lan asked the moving shadow on the ground. He thought the person controlling the shadow was in the same place as the shadow.


"So your Sect and not your own personal grudge, don't try to see where you can take advantage of others in the sect and the Sect members will be able to keep their faces. "That sound echoes through the atmosphere again. With a gentle breeze, the shadow suddenly disappeared from sight completely.


"How frightening. "Everyone in the crowd could feel their soul in the throat; at this point it was difficult for anyone to catch a breath. His aura was extremely oppressive and the shadow spirit was extremely frightening.


"Who is that guy? Briefly it seemed like he was talking directly to the Patriarch. ”Discussions can be heard around.


"It must be someone who kept the Sect's best interests in secret. This is why he got involved because we gave disciples to other sects. The great Sect Elders surprisingly knew nothing about this either. It seemed like the Yun Hai sect had a hidden dragon. ”


Nan Gong Ling smiled wryly on his face. There was only one person who knew who the shadow belonged to and that it was him.


When Nan Gong Ling thought about what he had done, she felt guilty. He weighed the pros and cons of various possibilities and took his position within the Sect very seriously. He had always tried to do everything for the benefit of the Sect but had somehow forgotten the reputation of the Sect back then. He was too worried about personal gains and losses, without considering the sect as a whole.


"Chu Zhan Peng, let's finish today. Send your father my regards. "Said Nan Gong Ling while looking at Chu Zhan Peng.


'Done for today?' Lin Qian was stunned. How could he go and let Lin Feng go?


"Senior please .." said Lin Qian in a low voice expressing anxiety. Chu Zhan Peng then smiled and said: "Patriarch Nan Gong Ling, I came to the Yun Hai sect because I think you have many geniuses and heroic Cultivators in your sect. I really want to see them. I don't know who, among all the Sect disciples, wants to train with me. We can exchange points and that will definitely help us gain insight. ”


Even if Chu Zhan Peng's words sounded moderate and polite, he had no other choice but to speak like that. He wanted to provoke the Sect by fighting and losing face.


Lin Feng understood everything perfectly, everything became very clear. He understood the reason why Lin Qian and the evil-looking man had come to the Yun Hai sect.


"Patriarch, Junior Chu Zhan Peng, you are famous all over the country, everyone knows your name. Our disciples in the Yun Hai Sect must train very hard to engage in a balanced battle with you. If there is a chance at some point to fight, I'll be happy to tell you and you can come back at that time ”


"Patriarch Nan Gong Ling …"


"Did all the disciples of the Hao Yue sect maintain their lives without concern? You want me to repeat myself? ”Say Nan Gong Ling with a very cold tone. Chu Zhan Peng still wanted to talk about this matter. Nan Gong Ling had already given him two hints that he wanted the two of them to leave. He had done his best not to make her lose face.


Perhaps Chu Zhan Peng had inherent skills and abilities but he was extremely proud and made the patriarch of the Yun Hai sect lose face. The Hao Yue Sect was stronger than the Yun Hai Sect but Nan Gong Ling was older and stronger than Chu Zhan Peng. Did he really dare to make the patriarch lose face in their own territory?


Chu Zhan Peng looked extremely tensed as he forced those words out of his mouth and said, smilingly: “Alright, I will go. ”


"I, Chu Zhan Peng, will remember this. "The "legendary dragon flew high in the sky. Those who fall rise again. Everyone in the crowd was feeling depressed. Chu Zhan Peng had underestimated them and their sect.


"Lin Feng, during the annual meeting, I will kill you! Unless you plan to hide behind the Yun Hai Sect forever. "Said Lin Qian.


Lin Feng looked at the flying roc. He had a cold smile in his heart. Does he need to hide in the Yun Hai Sect?


Nan Gong Ling looked at the crowd on the ground. He lost face but Chu Zhan Peng was too arrogant and no one in the Sect could deal with him openly.


"In five years, I hope that there will be someone in the Yun Hai Sect who has reached the same level on the path of cultivation against Chu Zhan Peng. "Say Nan Gong Ling. Even if Chu Zhan Peng was one of the officials in the Xue Yue Country, it did not justify his arrogance. The Yun Hai Sect did not know how powerful the high officials of the country were, but they knew Chu Zhan Peng's extremely powerful cultivation.


"Let's finish for today. Everyone, come back now. "Nan Gong Ling waved and told the crowd to disperse and continue training.


Mo Xie did not move. He looked at Lin Feng with pure hatred filling his eyes. Of course, Lin Feng would remember Elder Mo and would take revenge.


“I said we're done today. "Shouted Nan Gong Ling loudly to Mo Xie who was still staring at Lin Feng. His voice made Mo Xie shiver. He then went and followed Nan Gong Ling.


“I have to be careful and pay attention to the man from now on. "Say Lin Feng to himself. He is very weak at the moment. He still had a long way to go until he reached Mo Xie level on the path of cultivation.


Lin Feng was about to leave but then heard a voice.


“If you want others to respect you, you have no choice but to become stronger and stronger. Otherwise, you will be humiliated and even if you die, no one will care. ”


Lin Feng stopped. These were the words of Nan Gong Ling. Lin Feng had heard their words and brought them to heart.


"Of course I know. '' Lin Feng said and felt a certain warmth in his heart that made him smile in his mind. Lin Feng was on his way to becoming stronger.


•••


Lin Feng was sitting cross-legged in the mountains, in a cave, meditating. The Qi of heaven and earth turned into a white light that sank into Lin Feng's body and strengthened his bones while making his flesh more resilient.


Cultivate and practice. Lin Feng had trained so hard that one could clearly see his strength increasing by leaps and bounds. The Qi of heaven and earth had purified his blood and made his entire body stronger. That Qi had sunk into his body and was fully absorbed without wasting the slightest amount. He's getting stronger all the time.


Qi layer, this is the first cultivation level. A cultivator only had the basics at that level. It only made the Cultivator's basic Qi a little stronger. Becoming stronger was only possible by cultivating more than others and training harder than others.


Lin Feng was eager to increase his strength. He must become stronger than anyone. He wanted to break through to the Ling Qi layer. Only then could he become an Elite disciple. Everyone would be forced to respect his strength back then.


If he managed to break through to the Ling Qi layer, his spirit would rise. With his spirit and mastery, he would become a terrifying opponent.


Just like Chu Zhan Peng and Lin Qian whose spirits were awakened. Chu Zhan Peng could fly high in the sky and carry the people behind his soul. Lin Qian could control ice and fire by using her universal spirit.


Lin Feng believed that if his strength increased, his spirit would rise and with his spirit he could increase his strength many times.


Therefore, after Han Man recovered from his injuries completely, Lin Feng would go into closed training within one of the eight mountains and cultivate hoping to break through to the Ling Qi layer as quickly as possible. He had understood that he needed to increase his strength or else he would not be respected in this world.
