106: Chapter 106 should be fine.

Void Tribulation Finger

An Elder was the first to recognize the Move Lin Ming used, his face filled with shock.

This Move was created by Old Ancestor Yun Hua herself; this finger technique had never been defeated. Those who faced it were either killed or crippled, with the lightest injury being a severe one.

Furthermore, not just anyone could learn this Move.

Old Ancestor Yun Hua once contributed this Move, and it was placed in the Scripture Pavilion; one only needed to spend a massive amount of contribution points plus some essence stones to learn it.

But attempting to learn it and actually mastering it were two different things.

Since the Void Tribulation Finger entered the Scripture Pavilion, many Disciples, managers, and even Elders had indeed tried to learn it.

However, not a single person was able to Revered Master it.

Forget mastering it; they couldn't even understand it.

Even so, people didn't give up; every once in a while, someone would take the initiative to study it, only to eventually abandon it.

No one had mastered it.

This showed just how high the difficulty of this Move was.

But now, Lin Ming had displayed this very Move.

"He is that person's Disciple, after all. With her personal guidance, it shouldn't be too hard to learn this Move, right?"

"Not necessarily. I heard from Junior Martial Uncle Ye Hua that this Move isn't something that can be taught."

Ke Qingyun's expression also turned extremely solemn.

Void Tribulation Finger

She had heard of this Move's reputation, and the Lin Ming before her now gave her an extremely dangerous feeling.

Even so, Ke Qingyun had no intention of backing down.

On the contrary, she wanted to clash with this so-called Void Tribulation Finger; she might not be unable to resist it.

Ke Qingyun took a step forward, raising her slender, jade-like hand and pointing a finger.

Vitality, Decay

Two completely opposite types of Qi actually manifested from Ke Qingyun's hand.

"Withering-Flourishing Finger?!"

Peak Master Zhao Wuhai sensed these two opposite Qi signatures and showed a slightly surprised expression.

"Withering-Flourishing Finger... Your Azure Severance Peak has indeed produced a good talent."

Peak Master Qin Weifeng nodded slightly.

If it's this Move, she might be able to contend with the Void Tribulation Finger.

Of course, Qin Weifeng was referring to the Void Tribulation Finger as performed by Lin Ming.

However, this kid hid his strength well; he even managed to learn Senior Sister's Void Tribulation Finger.

They had all underestimated Lin Ming a bit.

"The Withering-Flourishing Finger, huh."

Lin Ming naturally recognized this Move. It was one of Azure Severance Peak's ultimate techniques; to learn it, one must have an extremely high comprehension of the Dao of Wood.

The finger strike, interwoven with vitality and decay, collided with the Void Tribulation Finger.

But this collision lasted for only a few seconds.

Vitality, decay—no matter which power it was, it crumbled before the Void Tribulation Finger, dissipating into the world.

The finger pointed straight at Ke Qingyun.

And Ke Qingyun had already prepared a countermeasure for this.

The Withering-Flourishing Finger was a Move she had only recently comprehended, and it was her first time using it against an enemy.

Especially when facing the Void Tribulation Finger, a Move unknown to her, she had already made double preparations.

A phantom image of a tree appeared before her.

Ripples spread out from this tree.

But in less than ten seconds, this tree phantom shattered, directly crushed by the power of the Void Tribulation Finger.

Ke Qingyun retreated.

The shattering of the Azure Wood Phantom also knocked her back, making it difficult for her to take her next action.

At that moment, Zhao Wuhai appeared; he arrived in front of Ke Qingyun just in time and blocked the Void Tribulation Finger.

"In this battle, Lin Ming of Zichen Peak is the winner."

Peak Master Zhao Wuhai said this and then left the high platform.

No one had any objections to Zhao Wuhai's decision; after all, they could all see that Ke Qingyun was no longer able to handle the Void Tribulation Finger.

"Senior Sister's Move is truly troublesome."

Peak Master Zhao Wuhai returned to his seat and shook his head.

If Ke Qingyun had been hit by the Void Tribulation Finger, it would indeed have been problematic, which was why he had intervened in time to block it.

Of course, this was after Ke Qingyun had already been defeated.

"That's why she's the Senior Sister, I suppose."

Peak Master Qin Weifeng said with a smile.

On the other side

Zichen Peak

"This Move of yours is truly perverted."

Elder Mu Shan watched the image of Lin Ming's battle in the mirror and then complained to Master Yun Hua.

Lin Ming's feat wasn't actually that much; it was just defeating an opponent across three minor Realms.

She had seen even more 'perverted' feats from Master Yun Hua; compared to her, Lin Ming's performance was actually nothing.

Master Yun Hua was the creator of the Void Tribulation Finger.

"It's alright."

Master Yun Hua shook her head.

The power of her Void Tribulation Finger was indeed decent, but it wasn't an invincible Move.

But Lin Ming's comprehension of this Move was quite deep, which was also something she hadn't quite expected.

"I expect that with this Move, the kid will be able to complete the task you gave him."

Elder Mu Shan teased.

"Not necessarily."

A faint, mysterious smile appeared on Master Yun Hua's face.

...

"Void Tribulation Finger? You actually learned it?!"

Yu Yaoqin looked at Lin Ming in shock and said.

"It's my Revered Master's Move, why wouldn't I be able to learn it?"

Lin Ming asked back.

"Senior Brother should be the second person to learn this Move, besides your Revered Master."

Luo Lingfeng said.

"Maybe."

Lin Ming nodded.

"Now, Stinky Senior Brother, you really might make it into the top ten."

Yu Yaoqin said.

At first, she also thought it would be difficult for Lin Ming to break into the top ten, but now the situation was different.

Void Tribulation Finger

With this Move, Lin Ming had directly defeated one of the favorites to win, Ke Qingyun.

Maybe Lin Ming really could make it into the top ten.

As for whether he could take first place, she couldn't be sure about that.

She could only say there was a chance.

"The top ten shouldn't be a problem."

Lin Ming said.

Sneaking into the top ten would definitely be no problem.

Lin Ming had never worried about that issue.

If it were just the Triple Sword Intent, it might indeed not be enough; after all, the battle just now showed that Triple Sword Intent wasn't sufficient to carry him into the top ten.

But with the addition of the Void Tribulation Finger, it was different.

Once this Sect Competition was over, he had to give himself a good rest.

He had indeed been a bit busy lately, which seriously affected his peaceful life.

The second day's matches also ended there.

Lin Ming turned and returned to Zichen Peak. As soon as he got back, he had to cook for his beloved Revered Master and prepare an extra portion for a certain freeloading guest.

After finishing all this, Lin Ming finally had time to get some proper rest and prepare for the third day of battles.

Four matches. Lin Ming had calculated that as long as he won four more matches, he would be able to enter the top ten.

The third day

Lin Ming still arrived at the Sect Square looking listless.

Compared to Lin Ming's seemingly decadent appearance, the other Disciples appeared exceptionally spirited.

And the number of Disciples watching the matches was also increasing.
