Chapter 329 - 329: True Cultivation Genius (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shan Wenqi was going to lose!
It didn’t take a genius to see that Shan Wenqi’s defeat was a foregone conclusion!
No one expected Lin Shen, who had just advanced to a cultivator master a few months ago, to be so powerful.
“A Body Tempering cultivation technique and an offensive one… How is this possible?” Li Mengfei’s face was filled with disbelief.
Duan Ziping, Tang Ming, and the others were also at a loss.
Cultivation techniques at the cultivator master stage were far more difficult to cultivate than martial techniques and spells of the three mortal stages.
Each of them required a lot of time and energy to reach Beginner.
When they cultivated techniques, they all had to spend months barely reaching Beginner.
But what about Lin Shen?
Just over a month ago, when he fought with Kuang Zhuo at the North Gate, he hadn’t even converted the Five Elements spiritual essence.
It had only been a little more than a month, but Lin Shen had already transformed the Five Elements spiritual essence and cultivated two cultivation techniques!
Moreover, they both looked extremely powerful!
They were even more powerful than the Golden Killing Sword!
It was unbelievable!
At this moment, a loud bang jolted them out of their daze.
Looking up, they saw a huge pit in the dense forest of Goldstream Isle. Shan Wenqi lay in the middle of the pit in a sorry state, as if his entire body was embedded in the ground.
He was covered in wounds. It was a shocking sight.
However, he didn’t feel anything because he had already fainted.
Seeing this scene, many spectating disciples couldn’t help but wince.
Most human cultivators focused on the use of spiritual essence. Therefore, they often fought with Dharma treasures and cultivation techniques in battle and rarely fought in close combat.
Even a sword cultivator, who was famous for his ruthlessness, would use exquisite and elaborate sword techniques in battles, giving people a dazzling feeling.
Only demon cultivators relied on their strong physical bodies and often liked to fight in close combat. Their style was extremely barbaric and b.l.o.o.d.y, and they were abnormally rough.
Therefore, this was the first time that many disciples had seen such a fierce and rough battle between cultivator masters.
Shan Wenqi was completely knocked unconscious by Lin Shen’s hammer strike. Such a loss was simply embarra.s.sing to the extreme.
They wondered if Shan Wenqi would be so angry that he would faint again when he woke up and remembered how he had lost.
At the edge of the deep pit, Lin Shen looked at the motionless Shan Wenqi, and a hint of disdain flashed across his eyes.
He put away the bronze hammer and flew into the sky, then cupped his hands at everyone.
“Thank you for waiting. The battle is over.”
Everyone snapped out of their daze and returned the greeting.
Lin Shen had defeated Shan Wenqi without breaking a sweat. Be it the core disciples or the deacons, they no longer dared to underestimate him.
Lin Shen smiled faintly and turned to face the flying ship where Li Mengfei and the others were. His sharp gaze swept across everyone like a sharp sword.
It made those people rather uneasy. They involuntarily looked away, not daring to meet Lin Shen’s eyes.
“Shan Wenqi has lost. From today onwards, Gale Island belongs to me. Go back and tell the people of the Shan family to be prepared. In a few days, I will be there and take over the island. If they dare to stop or disobey, I’ll report it to the sect and punish them according to the sect rules!”
The rules of gambling battles were absolute. Since Lin Shen won, Gale Island was his.
The Shan family members who lived on the island had to move out immediately. As for everything else, including the buildings, herb gardens, and even the maids and servants, they would all belong to Lin Shen.
Li Mengfei and the others’ expressions changed slightly when they heard this.
Previously, they believed that Shan Wenqi wouldn’t lose, so they didn’t think that there was anything wrong with using Gale Island as the stake.
However, when Lin Shen won and Gale Island fell into his hands, they suddenly realized how bad it was.
Gale Island only belonged to Shan Wenqi in name, but it was actually the Shan family’s property.
The Shan family had to pull a lot of strings to obtain Gale Island. The spirit herb garden on the island was built by the Shan family after spending a lot of manpower and resources. It was extremely valuable.
But now, all of this would benefit Lin Shen.
If the Shan family were to find out about this, Shan Wenqi would definitely not end up well!
Even they would be implicated!
Thinking of this, Li Mengfei, Tang Ming, and the others immediately panicked.
Li Mengfei took a step forward and squeezed out a smile, “Brother Lin, Gale Island is the Shan family’s…”
But before he could finish speaking, Lin Shen had already turned around and left without even looking at him.
Li Mengfei was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses and was about to chase after Lin Shen, something was thrown at him and smashed onto the deck of the flying ship.
It was Shan Wenqi.
When they looked at Goldstream Isle again, they saw the restriction had been activated.
Seeing this, Li Mengfei stopped and sighed.
The others also looked at each other and were at a loss.
“Mengfei, what should we do?” Tang Ming asked with a frown.
Li Mengfei sighed and said, “Take Wenqi away and treat his wounds first, then send someone to the Shan family to report the incident. The matter of Gale Island is beyond us. Let the Shan family send someone to negotiate with Lin Shen.”
Tang Ming opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but hesitated. In the end, he lowered his head dejectedly.
They came in high spirits but ended up like this. Anyone would be incomparably depressed.
Not long after.
The flying ship turned around and left Goldstream Isle dejectedly.
It wasn’t until the flying ship was far away that the crowd, who had been holding back their excitement for a long time, finally erupted into an uproar.
“I didn’t expect Lin Shen to win!”
“Who would have thought that Lin Shen could master two cultivation techniques? Speaking of which, does anyone know what cultivation technique he used to produce those two black water droplets? Their power is simply shocking!”
