118: Chapter 118 You're Still Almost
The great seal descended.
A scorching Breath of the Blazing Sun followed it down.
Seeing this, Lin Ming also condensed a great seal in his hands.
"Spirit Severing Seal!"
Many people present were instantly stunned when they saw the technique Lin Ming was using.
Several Elders even stood up from their seats.
The closely guarded secret of Yuanxu Mountain—the Spirit Severing Seal.
To see it being performed by Lin Ming now, they even wondered if they were seeing things.
"This kid..."
Master Yun Hua smiled slightly.
Her smile also carried a hint of surprise; just how many things was this kid hiding from her?
He had actually even learned the Spirit Severing Seal.
Spirit Severing Seal.
This great seal then collided with the "Pure Yang Reverse Seal."
The two powerful forces clashed, grinding against each other.
However, the Spirit Severing Seal ultimately proved superior. Like a series of chains, it locked down the Pure Yang Great Seal and completely wore away its Pure Yang Breath.
At the same time, Lin Ming turned himself into lightning and appeared behind Lin You in the blink of an eye.
Since the other party wanted to disrupt his Revered Master's Nirvana Ceremony, there was no need for him to hold back against such a person.
Of course, from start to finish, Lin Ming only displayed the strength of the Spirit Platform Realm.
Lin You was also shocked to see the other's technique neutralize his "Pure Yang Reverse Seal."
He also realized in time that Lin Ming had moved behind him.
But his movements were still a step too slow.
In the next second, the lightning poured down.
A surge of lightning power struck out from Lin Ming's hand, slamming into Lin You's body.
Lin You immediately summoned his Origin Qi, using Yang Extreme Power to counter it.
But he found that his Yang Extreme Power was completely unable to withstand the lightning and was utterly destroyed by it.
"Hmph..."
Lin You gritted his teeth and let out a muffled groan.
He eventually collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
"Senior Chai Li, your Shangji Sect's Disciples are indeed quite strong, but they still need more practice."
The lightning dissipated.
Lin Ming looked at Senior Chai Li and said these words.
Senior Chai Li's expression instantly darkened, but it only lasted for a second before his smile returned.
He had never expected Lin You to lose.
This was a Disciple who had comprehended the Wuji Yin-Yang Sutra.
Yet the reality was right before their eyes.
"As expected of the Old Ancestor's Disciple."
Senior Chai Li walked onto the high platform and took the fallen Lin You away.
"This Disciple of yours still needs some tempering, otherwise he won't go far."
Master Yun Hua said.
"Thank you for the guidance, Old Ancestor."
Senior Chai Li could only accept it.
What else could he say? No one had expected Lin Ming to have comprehended the Spirit Severing Seal. That Spirit Severing Seal hadn't just worn down Lin You's "Pure Yang Reverse Seal," it had also sealed the Origin Qi around him, making it difficult for Lin You to mobilize his Origin Power when facing Lin Ming at the end.
He had truly underestimated him.
Senior Chai Li's gaze fell upon Lin Ming.
Lin Ming was certainly hiding himself well.
With Lin You's defeat, the Nirvana Ceremony continued.
It wasn't until the sky grew dark that the crowd dispersed.
But Lin Ming had left a deep impression on everyone.
"The Spirit Severing Seal... this Disciple of yours is truly a bit of a freak."
Inside the Immortal Cave.
Elder Mu Shan sized Lin Ming up and down as she spoke.
She had also been shocked when she saw Lin Ming use the Spirit Severing Seal.
A cultivator in the Spirit Platform Realm being able to comprehend the Spirit Severing Seal—he must be the first in Yuanxu Mountain's history.
Even Sect Master Yun Xiao had only comprehended the Spirit Severing Seal when he was in the Spirit Treasury Realm.
Lin Ming had broken that record.
"I'm a human, not a freak."
Lin Ming shook his head.
Freak or not, he was just a person.
"Master Yun Hua, how did I not see that this Disciple of yours was also a Genius?"
Elder Mu Shan said.
"The Spirit Severing Seal—when did you comprehend it?"
Master Yun Hua ignored the flighty Elder Mu Shan and asked Lin Ming.
"A year or two ago. I just learned it as I went."
Lin Ming said.
"I still underestimated your talent for techniques."
Master Yun Hua said.
She had still underestimated her Disciple's talent for techniques.
"It's just that your cultivation is a bit lacking."
Master Yun Hua changed the subject.
"Revered Master, for my age, a cultivation in the Spirit Platform Realm is already quite good."
Lin Ming said with a serious face.
A twenty-year-old at the Fifth Heaven of the Spirit Platform Realm would be considered a Genius-level existence in the entire Qingxuan Realm.
Yet in his Revered Master's eyes, it was considered "a bit lacking."
"At your age, this cultivation is indeed quite good."
Elder Mu Shan nodded.
Lin Ming's words were not wrong; a twenty-year-old at the Fifth Heaven of the Spirit Platform Realm would be considered decent even in their top Sects.
"When I was your age, I was already in the Spirit Treasury Realm."
Master Yun Hua said expressionlessly.
When Master Yun Hua was the same age as Lin Ming, she was already a cultivator in the Spirit Treasury Realm.
These words caused the corners of Elder Mu Shan's mouth to twitch slightly.
Not everyone could be compared to an old freak like Master Yun Hua, yet she was imposing her own standards on her Disciple.
"I certainly can't be compared to you, Revered Master."
Lin Ming said immediately.
In terms of actual cultivation, Lin Ming had long since surpassed Master Yun Hua.
"Two years. Reach the Spirit Treasury Realm."
Master Yun Hua said.
"Wasn't it three years?"
Lin Ming said quickly.
Hadn't they agreed on three years before? And even now, there were still more than two years left, so how did it become two years?
"I said two years, so it's two years."
Master Yun Hua said in an unquestionable tone.
Lin Ming could only nod and accept it.
What else could Lin Ming do about this unreasonable Revered Master of his? He could only agree.
"You can break through in the next few days."
Master Yun Hua's gaze then turned toward Su Lianxue.
She could tell at a glance that the Qi and blood in Su Lianxue's body had reached a Bottleneck, a critical point.
"This Disciple plans to attempt the Breakthrough tomorrow."
Su Lianxue said with a look of determination.
Her body had been tempered to the extreme, and there were only two paths left ahead of her.
Twelve Body Temperings, then the Spirit Guiding Realm.
Her choice was definitely the twelve Body Temperings; even if the road ahead was dangerous, she was prepared.
"Then break through."
Master Yun Hua nodded.
This was Su Lianxue's own choice, and she would not interfere too much in this matter.
The path of cultivation is inherently an act of defying the heavens.
Once she successfully crossed it, it would be a qualitative transformation for Su Lianxue.
As her Revered Master, she naturally hoped she would succeed.
Even if she failed, Master Yun Hua would be able to save her life.
"Yes."
Su Lianxue nodded.
"As for you, why are you still here?"
Master Yun Hua looked at Elder Mu Shan and asked.
"Someone else will attend the matters over there; it's not my turn."
Elder Mu Shan shook her head.
She knew what Master Yun Hua was referring to.
But she was only ordered to attend Master Yun Hua's Nirvana Ceremony; the rest of the matters would be handled by others and had nothing to do with her.
