CHAPTER 427: CHAPTER 414: FIRST

Swoosh!

Lin Feng flew over, his figure descending.

"Junior Brother Lin Feng!"

"Lin Feng!"

Wang Hui, Elder Wei, Second Elder, and others immediately showed joy upon Lin Feng’s arrival.

"Lin Feng, have you reached the peak of Martial Master Third Layer?"

Elder Wei sized up Lin Feng with a glance, and his eyes narrowed in surprise.

The other disciples from Divine Wind Camp also showed expressions of shock. Lin Feng’s cultivation speed was incredibly fast!

"Um!"

Lin Feng nodded. His actual cultivation was at Earth Martial Master Fourth Layer, but he used a Concealing Technique to hide one layer of his cultivation, making it seem like he had only reached the peak of Earth Martial Master Third Layer to outsiders.

"Haha! Good, your cultivation has greatly improved. This time at the Hundred Extremes Tournament, your chances will be even greater!"

Elder Wei smiled broadly, laughing heartily.

The Great Elder, Third Elder, and others aligned with the Island Master had flickering eyes and their faces didn’t look too pleased.

"Lin Feng, even if you’re at Earth Martial Master Third Layer, the hope of entering the Hundred Extremes List is slim!"

The Great Elder snorted coldly, "This cohort has too many geniuses. There are a lot with the Earth Martial Master Fourth Layer cultivation, just look at that young man."

The Great Elder pointed to a distance. Lin Feng followed the direction and saw a young man in purple clothes meditating and adjusting his breath not far away.

"That is Luo Ning who ranked forty-first in the last Hundred Extremes List, his cultivation has reached the peak of Earth Martial Master Fourth Layer!"

The Great Elder explained.

Lin Feng just smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, confident in his own strength.

A short while later, Lin Feng sat cross-legged on an open space. With three days until the competition began, he aimed to push his strength further.

In recent times, Lin Feng’s power had surged at an alarming rate, stepping into the Fourth Layer Realm of Earth Martial Master, his Infinite Sword Technique reaching Great Success, and his cultivation of Wind Sword Intent, although not fully achieving First Rank Great Perfection, had peaked at the Late Stage of the First Rank, inching infinitely close to the Great Perfection of Sword Intent.

Of course, during these eight days on the road, Lin Feng didn’t neglect his Silent Annihilation Heart Method, which had reached the limit of the Third Layer.

He wanted to reach the Fourth Layer Realm within these three days, to condense the overwhelmingly powerful Silent Annihilation Sword Qi. Once he condensed Silent Annihilation Sword Qi, Lin Feng was confident in rushing to the top ten of the Hundred Extremes List, or even — first place.

Time passed slowly as Lin Feng cultivated. A day later, Duan Jingtian arrived.

Glancing at Lin Feng who was meditating with closed eyes, Duan Jingtian’s eyes revealed a cold gleam.

Over the next two days, huge numbers of Martial Artists arrived at the site, and due to the sheer volume of people, the plains were almost completely filled.

"Look, it’s Han Yijian from the last Hundred Extremes List, ranking fifty-third. His Life-taking Sword Technique is cruel and deadly, each sword strike aims to kill."

"Jia Yuanji who ranked forty-ninth on the Hundred Extremes List has arrived too."

Ignoring the discussions around him, Lin Feng’s Silent Annihilation Heart Method had entered the Fourth Layer Realm, its power greatly increased again. He was now focusing on condensing Silent Annihilation Sword Qi.

Silent Annihilation Sword Qi is condensed from the Silent Annihilation Energy contained within the Silent Annihilation True Essence; its power is immense.

The first three layers of Silent Annihilation Heart Method are just the basic stage, relatively simple. After reaching the Fourth Layer, it becomes more difficult to practice, but it truly begins to display its peerless sharpness.

Entering the Fourth Layer Realm of Silent Annihilation Heart Method, one can condense a strand of Silent Annihilation Sword Qi within the Spirit Vortex.

Whoosh!!!!

A massive wave of fire surged from the distant horizon.

A group of dozens of powerful figures came flying across the sky, these dozens of people glowing with fire, some even engulfed in flames.

"The people from Fire Cloud Mountain have arrived!"

"Look, that is Huo Ling, the Crown Prince of Fire Cloud Mountain!"

The plains immediately erupted, and exclamations rose from everywhere.

Fire Cloud Mountain is one of the Seven Great Forces of the Great Thousand Domain, with dozens of True Gang Realm powerhouses within its sect, incredibly powerful in strength.

The Seven Great Forces of the Great Thousand Domain aside from Fire Cloud Mountain include: Heavenly Dao Sect, Tianhong Empire Royal Family, Beihai Sect, Blood Luo Hall, Divine Sword Sect, and the Duanmu Family.

Hearing the surrounding exclamations, Lin Feng couldn’t help but open his eyes and look in that direction too.

Among the people from Fire Cloud Mountain, there was a tall young man with red hair and red eyebrows; his entire figure, except for his eyes, was crimson.

The aura emanating from him was like a boiling volcano, turbulent and fierce. Some Martial Artists with lower Earth Martial Master strength probably couldn’t even approach him.

"Is this person the Crown Prince of Fire Cloud Mountain?"

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the other’s figure, presumably also cultivating the Fire Element Technique, similar to Jin Yang from the Fiery Sun Sect.

But compared to Jin Yang, this person was like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.

Lin Feng glanced over the ’Crown Prince of Fire Cloud Mountain’ and then retracted his gaze.

Indeed, this person was a master and might be a formidable opponent for him.

Lin Feng then continued to refine the Silent Annihilation Sword Qi in his Spirit Vortex. In just over two days, he had already condensed three strands of Silent Annihilation Sword Qi.

Each strand of the Silent Annihilation Sword Qi, the size of a pinky finger, was a blackish gas filled with the aura of Silent Annihilation.

Following the arrival of the Fire Cloud Mountain group, it was not long before the remaining six Great Forces arrived during the last half-day.

The plains, previously noisy and bustling, quickly quieted down, silent as a graveyard. The Seven Great Forces are Overlord Level forces of the Great Thousand Domain, incomparable to other minor sects and factions.

In the face of the Seven Great Forces, everyone was solemn, not daring to speak loudly.

Lin Feng continued his cultivation while observing these young geniuses from the Seven Great Forces with an increasingly solemn expression.
