The gazes that landed on him seemed to be filled with mockery and disdain. This made Jiang Hao uncomfortable, and he almost wanted to turn around and leave.
Seeing the change in Jiang Hao’s expression, Xie Jingsheng couldn’t help but shake his head.
Cultivators should be calm and indifferent. Jiang Hao seemed to have a long way to go in terms of his temperament and bearing.
Shaking his head, Xie Jingsheng ignored Jiang Hao. He turned around and smiled. He went up to Lin Shen, who had returned to the pagoda and chuckled.
“Junior Brother Lin, you really gave us a huge surprise! I didn’t expect to see a Long Breath Stage cultivator killing an Enlightenment Stage beast in my lifetime!”
“Senior Brother, you flatter me. I was just lucky. That white-eyed tiger demon was seriously injured, to begin with. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to kill it.” Lin Shen smiled indifferently.
“That’s not the case.” Mu Chuanhua walked over and chuckled. “The injured Enlightening Stage beast is still an Enlightening Stage one. How many people can kill an Enlightening Stage beast like Junior Brother Lin? You’re being too humble!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him immediately agreed.
“Senior Brother Mu is right!”
“If it were me facing that white-eyed tiger demon, I wouldn’t be able to last a single round!”
“Senior Brother Lin is such a humble person! How noble of him!”
Seeing that the two upper house disciples were full of praise for Lin Shen, many disciples immediately joined the army of sucking up to him.
In any case, it wasn’t like they would lose anything by saying something nice.
Moreover, many people wanted to get closer to Lin Shen.
He was a peerless genius who could master a Path-stage martial technique at the Long Breath Stage!
His future was definitely promising!
If they didn’t take advantage of this opportunity to get closer to him, he might ignore them in the future!
For a moment, Lin Shen was surrounded by the disciples.
On the other hand, Jiang Hao, who had sacrificed himself to severely injure the white-eyed tiger demon, was ignored and sat alone.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Hao felt suffocated. He couldn’t vent his anger and felt simply too aggrieved.
After a while, Xie Jingsheng dispersed the crowd and let everyone recuperate and rest. After all, there were still more than ten mountains to sweep.
The crowd dispersed as instructed. Lin Shen heaved a sigh of relief and informed Xie Jingsheng and Mu Chuanhua before returning to his room on the third floor. He closed the door and began to check the gains from this battle. Although this battle was thrilling, the gains were also abnormally abundant.
During the battle, the effect of Testify by Killing had been triggered more than 20 times!
It was partly because Lin Shen had killed a lot of spiritual beasts, and partly because the quality of the spiritual beasts was high.
A large proportion of the spiritual beasts that died at Lin Shen’s hands were mid- and late-phase Ascension Stage beasts.
“Iron Claw, Golden Goose Technique, Strange Hand, and Cloud Dragon Rhythm… A total of four martial techniques have reached Perfection!”
Lin Shen was filled with joy.
The battle with Bai Teng successfully triggered the effect of Testify by Killing, and it happened to be on the Cloud Dragon Rhythm.
It allowed this martial technique to rise from Mastery 23% directly to Perfection!
Lin Shen couldn’t help but sigh. The higher the stage, the more dangerous it was to kill monsters, but once he succeeded, the benefits would be shocking.
This way, he could start fusing his movement techniques.
Without hesitation, Lin Shen immediately began to integrate Cloud Dragon Rhythm, Shadows, and Golden Goose Technique.
Not long after, a new martial technique appeared on the interface.
[Unnamed martial technique (Perfection 50%)]
As usual, Lin Shen named it Cloud Dragon Rhythm.
“I’m still two Perfection-stage martial techniques away from another
Path-stage martial technique.”
Lin Shen was very excited.
After calming himself down, he continued to fuse the Strange Hand into Meltdown. As expected, his progress increased by 5%.
[Name: Lin Shen]
[Talent: Well-versed]
[Stage: Long Breath Level 7, 34%]
[Cultivation techniques: Golden Crow Scripture (83% Mastery), Meltdown (10% Path), Forbidden Golden Armor (0% Path), Cloud Dragon Rhythm (50% Perfection), Dragon Roar Through the Clouds (Perfection), Supreme Yang Swordplay (Perfection), Essence Sword Finger (Perfection), Mortal Restrain (92% Proficient)]
[Number of clones: 6 (33%)]
What was worth mentioning was that as the four new martial techniques reached Perfection, Analogy also increased again.
“Martial arts cultivation speed +180%, martial arts power +90%!
“I’m still two Perfection-stage martial techniques away from raising the effect of my talent to the maximum.”
A smile flashed across Lin Shen’s face.
He took out the Energy Recovery Pill from his storage bag and swallowed it. Then, he began to recover the True Qi he had consumed.
At the same time, the six clones in his mind began to cultivate Moving Star Steps and Traceless Snow Steps.
After defeating the Tiger Tribe’s vanguard, they didn’t encounter any decent resistance on the way.
The pagoda flew over in an overwhelming manner and encountered very few spiritual beasts.
They probably realized that they were no match for the disciples and decided to flee.
Lin Shen was disappointed.
Three days later, at noon.
The pagoda hovered above the mountaintop. Everyone, including the three upper house disciples, stood quietly on the first level and looked up at the sky, as if they were waiting for something.
Even the two tutors appeared. They stood with their hands behind their backs and their eyes closed.
After about half an hour, the two tutors suddenly opened their eyes at the same time and looked up at the sky in the distance.
“They’re here!” Master Shi said in a deep voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, the clouds above the distant mountain peak suddenly stirred. A huge block suddenly broke through the clouds and flew out, casting a large shadow on the mountain peak.
Even though they were thousands of meters away, everyone still had the illusion that their vision had darkened slightly. It was as if their entire vision had been filled by that huge presence..
