Chapter 54 – Entering the Stage (4)
However, after comparing the spirit water with the spring water in the back mountains, he discovered that the spirit water not only contained several times more spiritual energy, but also had several other uses. After careful analysis, he discovered that the spirit water could help one maintain a youthful appearance!
If consumed regularly, a person can appear younger. He only took a few drops and immediately felt the effects. This fact made him very happy.
It should be said that only after one reaches the Nascent Soul stage can they live forever, but, by the time that happens, it will have been hundreds, even thousands, of years.
Zhang Kuang knew that if this spirit water was taken out to exchange with other sects, they would go crazy over it, especially the female cultivators in the Foundation Building or Core Formation stage.
However, when he checked again, he had lost Wang Lin’s shadow. There were only a few dozen core disciples in the Heng Yue Sect. He checked them all, but couldn’t find a single one that looked similar.
He had been depressed for a long time because of this. He had also checked Wang Lin, but after learning that Wang Lin was only at the 3rd layer, he didn’t expect it to be Wang Lin.
But now, he was 100% certain that the person was Wang Lin. This confirmation had no logical basis. It was purely based on his intuition.
“This Wang Lin has already reached a high cultivation level! Luckily, I didn’t do anything to him back then. Unfortunately, the secret of the spirit water must be buried deep in my heart. It doesn’t matter whether Wang Lin is really that person or not, because the cultivation world is too cruel. Not to mention fellow sect members, even siblings will kill each other. With Wang Lin’s cultivation, I wouldn’t be able to resist at all!” Zhang Kuang decided to never mess with Wang Lin again.
He also subconsciously remembered that back in the back mountain, he had thought Wang Lin wasn’t even at the first level and had given him a ride. He wondered what Wang Lin must have thought of that back then.
There was also that time in the river in the back mountain. Thinking about it, Zhang Kuang shivered. He was glad he hadn’t done anything at that time, or it would have all been over for him.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t surprised at how Wang Lin could become so powerful, but with Wang Lin’s current cultivation level, he immediately stopped himself. He felt that if he continued to think about it, he would be wasting his life.
Brother Zhang, who had always been scolding Wang Lin to cultivate harder, felt extremely confused. He stared at Wang Lin and said grimly, “This Wang Lin is someone I personally brought over from the Wang family. He was clearly an ordinary youth. When he attempted suicide, I was the one who saved him. It’s been five years, and so much has changed. He’s now the number one disciple of the Heng Yue Sect. Fate is truly too cruel! I’ve painstakingly cultivated for ten years and only reached the sixth layer.”
If before the Xuan Dao Sect was shocked, now they were shocked!
Zhou Peng could explain that he was careless the first time, but the second and third time, he was continuously knocked out, each time with just one move. Especially the third time, Zhou Peng released his yellow talisman and used all his cultivation, but still lost by just one move.
This caused everyone in the Xuan Dao Sect to be stunned.
Liu Feng’s mouth gaped open, and he was unconscious for a long time. He was certain that Wang Lin was a master of the Heng Yue Sect. He thought, “Senior Brother wasn’t careless before, but he was weaker than Wang Lin. However, Senior Brother is already at the 12th Layer. What cultivation level has Wang Lin reached?”
Liu Feng muttered in disbelief, “Could it be that he has already reached Foundation Building?”
The female disciple named Ouyang, who had previously laughed at Wang Lin for trying to feed the centipede, was also stunned. The senior brother she admired the most was missing…
Liu Mei’s eyes lit up even more. She became even more interested in Wang Lin. She silently thought, “He really has many secrets. I realized something was wrong three days ago, when he was the first to recover from my charm technique.”
Some of the other disciples were even speechless because Senior Brother was their hero, an expert, but now, this expert had been defeated by someone else, beaten in one move, without even a chance to fight back. This caused them all to begin to doubt the techniques taught in the Xuan Dao Sect.
Elder Ouyang’s expression was similar to Huang Long’s when the Heng Yue Sect disciples had lost all their previous battles. His face was extremely sour. He stared deeply at Wang Lin, shocked. With his 14th-layer cultivation, no matter how he looked at Wang Lin, he could only see that he was at the 3rd-layer.
“He… is he really a core disciple of the Heng Yue Sect… has he already reached Foundation Building? Otherwise, how could I not be able to see his cultivation level?”
The faces of the other two elders were also extremely pale. Zhou Peng’s three battles had given them a clear understanding of Wang Lin’s strength.
It was then that one of the Xuan Dao Sect disciples suddenly whispered, “What technique is he using? Why do I feel like he’s using a pulling technique?”
A disciple beside him began to analyze with a serious expression. “The Attraction Technique? Impossible. That’s a technique of the lowest level. How could it contain such power? If you ask me, it must be a lost ancient technique. You saw him waving his hand like it was the attraction technique, but it must have been used to disguise this ancient technique! This Wang Lin is too cunning!”
“But from my perspective, it looks exactly like a technique for attracting attention. I often practice it myself. I can wave my hand and make objects fly wherever I want… just like what happened to my senior brother.” Another student added, but his voice became very faint on the last few words.
Another student said while rubbing his chin, “Forget it. Just try doing what Wang Lin just did. This can’t be a technique to attract attention, it can’t be!”
The other disciples began to discuss what technique Wang Lin had used. Some even went to ask the three elders directly.
Elder Ouyang and the other two elders laughed bitterly. He sighed and said, “This isn’t a conjuring technique. I’ve never seen such a powerful conjuring technique. From what I see, this must be the long-lost Dragon Capturing Hand!”
“Dragon Capturing Hands!” The other two elders were stunned. They had never heard of this Dragon Capturing Hands, but they also couldn’t see what technique Wang Lin was using, because it looked very similar to the attention-grabbing technique.
Elder Ouyang took a deep breath and thought, “This old man can’t see it either. If I say I don’t know, I’ll lose face, so I can only make something up.”
