Chapter 508 Surprising proposal
This junior brother that was chosen was someone who was only in the Low Qi Condensation Realm just like Lin Fan.
However, he was someone who had reached the Low Qi Condensation Realm a long time ago unlike Lin Fan who had just reached the Low Qi Condensation Realm.
So there should have been a difference between the two sides when they clashed.
But to everyone's surprise, Lin Fan was able to push back this junior brother with his first attack.
The junior brother had held back since he thought that he wouldn't need to use that much power to contain Lin Fan who had just broken through.
However, after being pushed back like this, he knew that he had to take this seriously.
So the junior brother released his full power and attacked Lin Fan.
But Lin Fan just calmly pushed him back with a single palm attack which caught the junior brother off guard. Then in one swift move, Lin Fan disappeared and reappeared in front of the junior brother with a sword in hand.
That sword was pointed right at the junior brother's neck.
With this, the junior brother had no choice but to say, "I give."
Lin Fan pulled his sword back and cupped his hands before saying, "You let me win."
The junior brother revealed a bitter smile when he heard this, but then that turned into a genuine smile as he said, "Sect master, you really are something else."
The two of them exchanged a few friendly words before the junior brother got off the arena.
However, Lin Fan still stood there and turned to Senior Brother Ying to ask, "Can someone else step in now? Someone a bit stronger?"
The junior brother wasn't offended by this since he knew that this was a sincere request.
At the same time, everyone couldn't help being curious just how powerful Lin Fan was now that he had broken through. So they wanted to fight him themselves just to see how strong he had become.
Senior Brother Ying was the same, but he couldn't fight Lin Fan himself since he was in? the Late Qi Condensation Realm. There was just too much of a difference in cultivation levels to justify a fight between the two of them.
So Senior Brother Ying turned to one of the junior sisters and said, "Junior Sister Yan, if you would."
This Junior Sister Yan was one of the strongest Mid Qi Condensation Realm Cultivators that their Love Sect had.
If she was Lin Fan's opponent, she should be able to draw out Lin Fan's full power.
Junior Sister Yan gave a nod in response to Senior Brother Ying's words and jumped onto the stage.
She cupped her hands in Lin Fan's direction before saying, "Please."
Lin Fan did the same as he said, "Please."
Then the two of them suddenly charged forward.
Lin Fan used the same palm attack as before while Junior Sister Yan sent out a palm of flames.
This time, they were evenly matched instead of Lin Fan pushing Junior Sister Yan back like he did with the junior brother. However, when the junior brother saw this, he couldn't help revealing a bitter smile.
After all, he knew that Junior Sister Yan's attack was much stronger than his attack just now.
If he had been the one facing this, he wouldn't have just been blown back a bit like when he faced Lin Fan.
So he knew that Lin Fan must have adjusted his attack when facing him so that he would only be pushed back a bit instead of overwhelmed.
In short, Lin Fan had gone easy on him.
Of course, there wasn't any anger felt by him since he knew that Lin Fan didn't do this to humiliate him, but rather to make sure that he wasn't hurt.
They were in the same sect, so this was just comparing notes.
There was no need to go all out and hurt the other side.
After the two palm attacks canceled each other out, Junior Sister Yan couldn't help revealing a surprised look.
Even if she hadn't used her full power just now, she had used at least 70% of that power and yet Lin Fan was able to cancel it out so easily with a single palm attack.
Was it because this was a powerful technique that he was using or…was it because he was strong enough to break through her palm like this?
As this thought passed through her mind, Junior Sister Yan realized that…she couldn't hold back anymore.
Since he had shown this kind of power, she would just need to use her full power to see just how powerful he was.
So she raised her hand and gathered her flames around herself.
When Lin Fan saw this, he knew that he wouldn't be able to hold back anymore since she was getting serious.
So he raised a hand and there was a black flame that gathered in his hand.
When the spectators saw this black flame, they couldn't help knitting their brows.
They could instantly tell that this black flame wasn't a normal flame. They could even feel a pressure coming from this black flame.
But for Ming Xin, she had a different expression.
That was because she recognized this black flame as the flame that her big brother had used before…
That black flame surrounded Lin Fan's hand before he suddenly released it in a palm attack just like before.
Junior Sister Yan also gathered her flames in a palm attack that she sent out to meet the black palm.
The two sides clashed and then…the black palm shattered the flame palm.
There was no resistance at all as the black palm shattered the flame palm.
In fact, the flames of the flame palm seemed like they were swallowed by the black flames of Lin Fan's attack. Almost as if they were flames that were of a lower quality that were swallowed by flames of a higher quality.
But of course, before the flame palm could reach Junior Sister Yan, Lin Fan made them disappear.
With this, the results of the duel were clear.
Junior Sister Yan cupped her hands with a bitter smile before saying, "Thank you for your grace, I surrender."
Lin Fan once again cupped his hands and said, "You let me win."
Junior Sister Yan didn't turn around and leave the stage after she lost, instead she asked, "Sect master, can you tell me what the flames you used just now were?"
Lin Fan said with a nod, "Those were Hell Flames."
Many people revealed confused looks when they heard this since they had never heard of Hell Flames before.
However, the expressions on the faces of the Golden Core Elders from the Hidden Dragon Sect changed when they heard this.
It was clear that they recognized this name.
Senior Brother Ying recognized this and asked one of the elders who used to be the sect master of the Hidden Dragon Sect, "What is this Hell Flame?"
This elder revealed a strange look before saying, "It's a special flame, one of the Primordial Flames. In fact, it ranks seventeenth on the Primordial Flame Rankings."
When this was said, everyone couldn't help revealing a surprised look.
While they didn't know what the Hell Flames were, they did know about the Primordial Flame Rankings since this was a famous ranking of powerful flames of nature.
There were nineteen of them in total and all nineteen were flames that could suppress other flames.
It was no wonder Lin Fan's black flame palm had shattered Junior Sister Yan's flame palm like it was nothing. It was no wonder that it had even absorbed the flames of Junior Sister Yan's flame palm.
This was the power of the Primordial Flame.
They all couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with very strange looks as they all tried to figure out just where Lin Fan had gotten this Primordial Flame.
Of course, Lin Fan would never tell them this.
The elders that were from the Hidden Dragon Sect couldn't help feeling very strange about this matter.
All they could think was…
"As expected of the ancestor."
They all still believed that Lin Fan was their ancestor who had possessed Lin Fan's body.
Since that was the case, it wasn't strange for the powerful ancestor who had suppressed all of them to obtain something like this.
But it made them feel complicated because that meant that this ancestor of theirs was just getting stronger and stronger.
The day of their freedom…was getting further and further away.
After learning the true identity of the flame from the people around her, Junior Sister Yan just gave a bow with cupped hands to Lin Fan before getting off the stage.
Lin Fan still felt that this wasn't enough, so he turned to Senior Brother Ying and said, "Elder Ying, if possible, how about we spar?"
Senior Brother Ying was surprised since he never thought that Lin Fan would propose this, but he gave a nod in the end.
After all, he had realized that Lin Fan hadn't used his full strength just now.
So it could be possible that he could even face him who was in the Late Qi Condensation Realm.
After he jumped onto the stage, Lin Fan looked like he suddenly remembered something as he said, "Oh, that's right, I've decided that we will be holding a sect recruitment soon. I hope that you can prepare everything for that."
Senior Brother Ying almost stumbled and fell down when he heard this.
He was able to catch himself in time before looking up at Lin Fan with a very strange look.
Such an important decision…he was just saying it so casually…
