224: Condensing the wild seeds in a moment, everyone is in an uproar! 【Seeking follow-up reading】

Desolate Hall is extremely vast, with dozens of giant peaks piercing the clouds, shrouded in mist like a fairyland.

On those mountain peaks, the sounds of Martial Art practice faintly emanated, and a vigorous Qi permeated the sky.

Led by Lin Dong, after about twenty minutes, the group landed on a giant peak near the center of Desolate Hall.

At the peak, a massive ancient stone pagoda could be seen, which was the Martial Arts Hall.

At this time, there were also many Desolate Hall Disciples coming and going, and upon seeing Lin Fan and his group, these Disciples all showed strange looks.

Lin Fan and Lin Dong, the two brothers, were already famous in Desolate Hall.

Lin Fan paid no mind to this and walked straight towards the stone pagoda's main entrance.

At the entrance, there was an old man in a gray robe, holding a broom and gently sweeping the withered leaves on the ground.

The old man's eyes were grayish-white, without pupils, and he appeared to be blind.

"Greetings, Elder Gu Mo," Lin Dong proactively cupped his fist to the old man in a respectful bow.

After a period of interaction, Lin Dong already knew that this old man's name was Gu Mo, and in Dao Sect, his status was even higher than Chen Zhen and Wu Dao.

Furthermore, Gu Mo had given Lin Dong quite a bit of guidance in Martial Art, so Lin Dong was very respectful to him.

Gu Mo nodded at Lin Dong, and his grayish-white eyes suddenly fixed on Lin Fan.

Lin Fan felt as if a subtle fluctuation swept across his body, and his heart couldn't help but subtly tighten. He cupped his fist and said, "Disciple Lin Fan, greetings, Elder Gu Mo."

Gu Mo nodded and said, "You may go in."

Lin Fan cupped his fist in a bow, said nothing more, and turned directly to enter the ancient pagoda.

What appeared in Lin Fan's vision was a vast, endless stone hall, permeated with an ancient aura. Soft lamplight flickered around, like spirits.

This stone hall was extremely peculiar; it had no bookshelves, but instead, there were stone tablets of varying sizes, with faint light swirling around them.

Lin Dong introduced, "These stone tablets all record the Martial Art of Desolate Hall."

"Mm, just take me directly to where the desolate stone is," Lin Fan nodded slightly and said.

Lin Dong acknowledged with a sound, then led Lin Fan towards the depths of the stone hall.

After about ten minutes, they arrived in front of a massive gray boulder, approximately a hundred zhang in size.

The boulder was spherical, dark gray throughout, and seemed to be covered in moss, with some fine cracks faintly visible.

"This is the desolate stone," Lin Dong stared at the boulder with a solemn expression and said to Lin Fan.

"Mm, I'll give it a try," Lin Fan nodded gently, then walked directly onto the stone platform, stopping before a gray stone tablet.

Ancient characters were displayed on the stone tablet.

"Desolate Strength."

At the top of the stone tablet, two ancient characters entered Lin Fan's eyes. Lin Fan's expression remained unchanged as his gaze gradually moved downwards, reading all the text on the stone tablet.

The stone tablet recorded the Cultivation Technique for "Desolate Strength," and at the end, its true name was carved: Desolate Skill!

With the Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability enhancement, Lin Fan easily comprehended Desolate Skill to Perfection, then walked straight towards the desolate stone.

Inside the Martial Arts Hall, many Desolate Hall Disciples who were originally Cultivating Martial Art now stopped their Cultivation, their gazes shifting to Lin Fan.

Because of Lin Dong's previous example, this time no one tried to dissuade Lin Fan from getting too close to the desolate stone.

The entire platform fell into an eerie silence, with only Lin Fan's footsteps echoing. Everyone's hearts pounded rapidly with each step.

And Gu Mo, who was originally at the ancient pagoda's entrance, had, at some unknown point, arrived behind the stone tablet, his grayish-white, pupil-less eyes fixed on Lin Fan's direction.

Under everyone's tense gaze, Lin Fan approached the desolate stone step by step, his skin seemingly becoming much drier.

Lin Fan calmly unleashed his Devouring Power, absorbing and resolving all the desolate strength that invaded his body, while also remembering to circulate the Cultivation method of the desolate strength.

Lin Fan absorbed and refined the desolate strength while continuously moving forward, quickly reaching the desolate stone, where his five fingers lightly touched the desolate stone.

Instantly, the System's wonderful voice once again echoed in his mind.

"Ding! You touched the desolate stone and gained the purification power of the ancestral stone! Note: Can purify evil spirits, aberrant demons, etc.!"

Lin Fan showed no change in expression. From the tips of his fingers touching the desolate stone, five black lines of light, condensed from Devouring Power, shot directly into the desolate stone, then rapidly eroded towards its interior.

Buzz buzz!

In an instant, an incomparably violent desolate strength suddenly erupted from the desolate stone, attempting to repel the Devouring Power unleashed by Lin Fan.

"Suppress!"

Lin Fan's thoughts stirred, and a wisp of gentle white light emitted from his five fingers, invading the desolate stone. The desolate stone immediately lost its repulsive force.

Immediately, waves of extremely robust desolate strength, at an astonishing speed, surged up Lin Fan's arm, into his body, and finally poured into his Dantian.

Under this nearly frantic infusion of desolate strength, the gray Qi mass within the Dantian became increasingly condensed, finally trembling violently and solidifying into a fist-sized gray bead!

That gray bead was precisely the desolate seed that could only be condensed by Cultivating Desolate Skill to the third stage!

"This guy, isn't he too abnormal?"

"I originally thought Lin Dong was already abnormal enough, but I didn't expect Lin Fan to be even more formidable than him!"

"Condensing a desolate seed in fifteen minutes, is he not letting anyone else live?"

"..."

The Disciples in the Martial Arts Hall looked at each other, a sense of powerlessness spreading from their hearts, and they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

Gu Mo's aged face also showed a hint of surprise, then a light smile appeared on his face, "Desolate Hall indeed has good fortune this time."

After condensing the desolate seed, Lin Fan temporarily stopped Cultivating and then stepped down from the stone platform.

"Your goal should also be those four great Martial Art. Follow me," Gu Mo silently appeared beside Lin Fan, smiling faintly, and said.

"Thank you, Elder Gu Mo," Lin Fan cupped his hands and expressed his gratitude aloud.

Next, led by Gu Mo, Lin Fan went to the depths of the Martial Arts Hall, where a bowl-shaped light membrane was inverted. Within that light membrane, four stone tablets stood silently.

Gu Mo raised his hand, and a ray of light flashed, tearing open a gap in the light membrane, and he led Lin Fan and Lin Dong inside.

As for the others, they could only wait outside.

Gu Mo said, "I presume Lin Dong has already informed you about the four Martial Art. Which one do you intend to Cultivate?"

"Barren Demon Eye," Lin Fan's expression was calm as he slowly uttered the four words.

Gu Mo gently reminded, "Cultivating this Martial Art carries risks. If anything goes wrong, your eyes might end up like mine."

"I understand," Lin Fan nodded slightly, his gaze focused on the eerie black eye on the stone tablet, and he quickly gained a basic understanding of the Barren Demon Eye.

Subsequently, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, his eyes closed. Streams of Mental Energy emanated from his Niwan Palace, finally coiling around the black eye on the stone tablet.

"Eight-imprint Celestial Inscription Master..." Gu Mo sensed Lin Fan's Mental Energy cultivation, and his expression also showed a slight tremor.

For someone of Lin Fan's age, whether it was his Yuan Power or Mental Energy, either one could crush most of his peers.

If both were combined, he would be considered extremely outstanding in the entire Eastern Xuan Region!

Under the watchful eyes of Gu Mo, Lin Dong, and the numerous Desolate Hall Disciples, Lin Fan remained calmly seated, unmoving.

Gradually, a bloodstain appeared at each of his eye corners.

Just as Gu Mo was about to intervene to pull Lin Fan out of his comprehension state, the bleeding from his eye corners stopped, and a faint white light enveloped them, quickly returning to normal.

However, a strange gray Qi gradually appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Gu Mo waited by the side.

At the same time, the news of Lin Fan entering the Martial Arts Hall quickly spread throughout Desolate Hall, and even Dao Sect...
