Chapter 1702: Chapter 1707: True Divine Movement
The surrounding Disciples all stared in shock at this floor-sweeping old man. According to how they remembered him, this old man shouldn’t be able to speak; in their memories he had never said a word.
Yet today, because of a single question from Lin Fei, he actually opened his mouth and spoke! That was truly unbelievable!
"Senior has heard of it? Just as I thought. When I saw Senior sweeping, every move, every bit of force—or lack thereof—was filled with traces of Dao. I figured Senior had to be extraordinary. I didn’t expect you to really be a hidden master outside the world." Lin Fei respectfully bowed to the floor-sweeping old man.
The floor-sweeping old man looked at Lin Fei and did not speak, while the surrounding Disciples, after hearing Lin Fei’s words, all wore faces of bewilderment. That eternally unchanged sweeping motion of the old man actually had ’traces of Dao’ in it? That was way too far-fetched, right?
Those senior brothers who came here often, year after year, all felt their old faces burning with shame. They had been coming here every day, and for several years at that, yet hadn’t noticed a thing? This was just too much, way too embarrassing!
"You’ve cultivated the Godspeed Talisman?" When the old man spoke again, his words carried a shocking message that stunned everyone. Lin Fei had actually cultivated the Godspeed Talisman? Wasn’t that complete nonsense!
However, Lin Fei nodded.
This made all the Disciples feel a kind of panic-stricken disbelief!
Everyone knew the Godspeed Talisman was the former Sect Master’s signature movement technique! And this kid actually knew it? He was a Disciple who’d only come up from the Lower Realm not long ago! And he already knew the Godspeed Talisman? This was clearly a connections case!
But Lin Fei didn’t care what they thought, nor what the senior and junior brothers said. To him it was all irrelevant. He opened his mouth and said, "Indeed, Senior. I have indeed cultivated the Godspeed Talisman."
"Hehe, since that’s the case, you must have had some kind of enlightenment from it, right? How long have you cultivated it? Can you show it to me?" the old man said.
Lin Fei glanced at the old man in surprise, then nodded. "Alright. But this junior has only been cultivating it for a short time, and I’ve been lingering here for so long that if you really count it, it’s only been a few days. So if there’s anything lacking, I hope Senior won’t laugh at me."
"I won’t. Don’t worry, just perform it for me to see." The old man revealed a faint smile. In the eyes of the many Disciples, this was no different from a statue suddenly speaking. It was downright eerie!
Lin Fei nodded. Since respect was worse than obedience, he closed his eyes, sensed that familiar aura, then opened his eyes again. A sharp gleam flashed in his gaze, and combining it with the Dao trajectories he’d comprehended from the old man’s movements over this period of time, he cast the Godspeed Talisman!
They saw only a streak of Flowing Light flash by; Lin Fei’s speed had already reached the speed of light, gone in the blink of an eye, shocking everyone present. So this was the Godspeed Talisman?
And those Disciples with sharper eyes, when they saw Lin Fei cast the Godspeed Talisman, felt it was unbelievably fast beyond reason. The key point was that Lin Fei had only cultivated it for a few days? Was this a joke? Damn, even if you’re joking you don’t go this far!
They found it too unbelievable that something like this could even happen!
The main thing was that they felt Lin Fei’s talent was way too terrifying. Just a few short days! They believed Lin Fei wouldn’t dare lie—after all, this old man’s strength was definitely unfathomable—so they believed what Lin Fei said was true.
But could a few short days really reach this level?
A hint of joy and appreciation flashed in the old man’s eyes. He nodded. "Not bad. Your talent is already quite good, at least much stronger than mine when I was young."
"Senior flatters me." Lin Fei replied modestly.
Then the old man said to Lin Fei, "Come with me. I’ll take you somewhere so you can experience what the true Godspeed Talisman is like."
A light flashed in Lin Fei’s eyes. As expected, this floor-sweeping old man also knew the Godspeed Talisman; otherwise there was no way every casual movement of his would contain the Dao charm of the Godspeed Talisman.
"Many thanks, Senior!" Lin Fei said, then walked to the old man’s side. The old man nodded, grabbed Lin Fei by the shoulder—and in an instant!
In just that one instant, the many Disciples saw only a flash. The old man and Lin Fei both disappeared, leaving them all dumbstruck, unable to recover for a long time.
Lin Fei was even more shocked. He only felt his body jolt, and then he found himself already standing on a mountaintop. Lin Fei looked into the distance and saw a towering mountain piercing into the clouds. As for that mountain, Lin Fei felt it had to be Qianhuang Peak!
To arrive here in a single instant? Lin Fei found it simply unbelievable!
"Senior, was that Instantaneous Movement just now?"
Hearing this, the floor-sweeping old man nodded. "Indeed. This is merely the power of the Godspeed Talisman, nothing that big a deal. I just wanted you to see it for yourself."
"Instantaneous Movement! That’s amazing, actually being able to reach Instantaneous Movement. Senior, I really admire you! You’re awesome!" Lin Fei gave the old man a thumbs-up.
The old man saw Lin Fei’s gesture, then heard his words, and looking again at the space between Lin Fei’s eyebrows, he said, "You’re from the Lower Realm, aren’t you?"
Lin Fei froze for a moment. He was indeed from the Lower Realm, and there was a mark between his brows—the mark of the Lower Realm. He was a person of the Lower Realm.
"Yes, Senior." Lin Fei answered respectfully.
The old man nodded and said, "I wonder how the Lower Realm is now? Is it still alright? Does the Great Qin Empire still exist?"
Hearing this, Lin Fei’s face was full of surprise, and he blurted out, "Senior, are you also from the Lower Realm?!"
The old man smiled. "The Lower Realm is a place that makes one nostalgic. I’ve been there, but I’m not someone from the Lower Realm."
Hearing the old man’s words, a trace of disappointment flashed through Lin Fei’s heart. He said, "Indeed, the Lower Realm is a better place than the Upper Realm. The Great Qin Empire Senior mentioned has long since been destroyed. After the fall of the Qing dynasty, Mo Country entered a modern society, so it’s different from the ancients of the past."
"So that’s how it is. If I have the chance, I’ll go down and take a look again." the old man said.
Lin Fei nodded. "Senior, you’ve also cultivated the Godspeed Talisman? Isn’t that the former Sect Master’s exclusive movement technique?"
Hearing this, the old man suddenly laughed. "Former Sect Master? Exclusive? Haha, kid, you’re thinking too simply. That Cultivation Technique was something I passed down to him. And the Cultivation Technique he taught you is only the first two layers; the final layer was never passed to you."
"How is that possible?" Lin Fei exclaimed. He already felt strong enough now—was it really incomplete?
"Why wouldn’t it be possible? That old bastard only knows how to play dirty tricks. So I’d say you’re most likely still inside his chess game right now. But why is there a strand of Demonic Qi on you?"
