306 Cheng Changmao
They were in the training field inside the Fire Cloud Cave.
Lin Xuan was waiting for the arrival of the fifth-ranked person on the board. He sat cross-legged in the center of the test field, constantly adjusting his physical condition. This battle was of utmost importance, and it was very likely that he would be able to break through to the last level of the Divine Elephant’s Destructive Force.
“He’s here!”
Although he had not seen anyone or heard any footsteps, Lin Xuan could sense an unbelievably strong life force slowly approaching him. This kind of character and life force was exactly why this person was ranked fifth!
Cheng Changmao!
Lin Xuan had seen his information on the internet. The SSS-grade talent, Palm of Wood, not only gave him terrifying vitality, but it also allowed him to absorb the power of the earth to strengthen his body. Not only did he have a strong physique, but he could also use spells and divine powers easily.
In short, he had high vitality, high defense, and a lot of skills!
This was only the information he had made public on the internet. Information on his bloodline, cultivation techniques, profession, magic prints, and other combat power could not be found on the internet at all, and Lin Xuan knew nothing about it.
However, it didn’t matter. The charm of combat had to be explored in this unknown situation.
On the spectator stand, Luo Yan, Su Tian, the principal, and the others were waiting quietly. When they saw Lin Xuan stand up but did not see his opponent come out, they were puzzled. A young man who looked to be in his thirties slowly walked out and was slightly stunned when he saw Lin Xuan standing up. He then smiled and nodded.
“I don’t have much time, hurry up!”
“Alright, let’s begin!”
Without a word, Lin Xuan took a quick breath and quickly pulled the distance between the two of them. He threw out a Tremor Punch. This was a test and also a reminder to Cheng Changmao to see which level he was at as a mystic-rank.
Cheng Changmao didn’t even move his hands and a wooden wall was erected in front of him, easily blocking Lin Xuan’s attack. However, the wooden wall was also shattered by the Tremor Punch.
“Didn’t they say that you’ve only been a mystic rank for four to five months, how did you get this much strength?!”
Cheng Changmao looked at the broken wooden wall, a little surprised and a little happy. He was not very happy to be a training partner for the newcomers, but since the principal of Di Yi asked, he had to say yes. Therefore, he set the time for half an hour. He did not expect Lin Xuan’s casual attack to invigorate his fighting spirit.
“I’m Lin Xuan, the Captain of Di Yi. Nice to meet you!”
Lin Xuan chuckled and activated his bloodline equipment — Grand Wizard. The vitality furnace he had suddenly appeared, and the flames of vitality burned fiercely. However, at that moment, other than the crimson flames of vitality, speckles of Grand Sun Primordial Fire also appeared.
Cheng Changmao looked at Lin Xuan’s imposing manner and was surprised for a moment. Then, he smiled bitterly. “So, this is your level. The principal didn’t tell me much about you. This is really… I wasn’t prepared at all!”
Using Heavenly Dragon’s Eight steps, Lin Xuan moved swiftly like a dragon, closing in on Cheng Changmao in an instant. The power of the Divine Elephant’s Destructive Force was fully activated, and he threw a punch at him.
“Child’s play!”
Cheng Changmao chuckled and extended a hand. With a low shout, countless plants grew on the training field and wrapped around Lin Xuan.
These plants looked complicated. They had the ability to absorb anything by themselves. Once they wrapped around Lin Xuan, they immediately started to absorb all kinds of energy from Lin Xuan’s body. Life force, blood, and bloodline energy. Fortunately, Lin Xuan had a glazed body, which was stainless and flawless. No matter how much they absorbed, they could not absorb anything.
Lin Xuan used all his strength to pull on the weeds but it did not break. He was surprised but remembered that fire beat grass. With a thought, the Grand Sun Primordial Fire spread throughout the entire arena, burning all the grass.
“Your strength is not bad. You won’t learn a single thing if I hold back, I have to be more serious!
“You must be joking. If you’re not serious, you’ll really lose!”
Bloodline Fusion Equipment — Torch Dragon!
Golden Crow Magic Pattern — Grand Sun Primordial Fire!
Eleventh level of the Divine Elephant’s Destructive Force!
The Dragon King’s Might!
“Woah!” Cheng Changmao really lost his composure this time. “That old man tricked me!”
However, no matter how much he cursed, the battle had already begun. In the face of Lin Xuan’s terrifying attacks, he, who was ranked fifth on the board, could still defend himself without a sweat.
“Wood Core Seal!”
He used plants to restrict Lin Xuan’s movements, then gently pressed his palm on Lin Xuan’s body. A powerful sealing technique was cast on Lin Xuan’s body. Seeing that the technique had been successfully released, he wiped the cold sweat from his head and almost flipped over.
“You’ve underestimated me. One sealing technique is not enough!”
With a flash of blood, the seal on Lin Xuan’s body was successfully replaced by the Substitution Skill, and he returned to normal.
“You’re too hard to deal with. I’ve come up with a lot of new things these days. I’ll try them on you!”
“Alright!”
Immortal Technique Wood Escape — Wooden Giant!
Lin Xuan was speechless.
What was going on? Lin Xuan was dumbfounded when he saw a huge wooden giant appear.
“Are you talking about the new things that you obtained a few days ago? The Ninjutsu scrolls and toad oil that the Bright Phoenix and the others obtained from Wood Mountain? This is too ridiculous!”
Immortal Technique Wood Escape — Wooden Dragon!
Immortal Technique Wood Escape — Tree World!
Three big objects came down directly, and the entire test field turned into a forest. The few people in the audience standing were a little stunned whereas the principal nodded. It made sense why this guy was able to kill an earth-rank. He was really strong. The two seniors were really dumbfounded.
However, even though these three moves were powerful, they were not enough to take down Lin Xuan in one go.
With one punch, he broke the binding of the tree world. With one punch, he shattered the wooden giant. With two punches, he killed the wooden dragon. Lin Xuan, who was almost unharmed, stood on the ground and looked up at Cheng Changmao, who was standing on the head of the tree world.
In an instant, countless wooden palms came crashing down on Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan also raised his fist and punched back constantly. The wooden palms were heavy and endless. Lin Xuan’s every punch could shatter a wooden palm, but it would be repaired by Cheng Changmao in the next second and he would have to continue hitting it.
The more he fought, the more strenuous it was on him, and the harder it was for him to hold on. However, just as Lin Xuan was about to be unable to hold on any longer, his mind watched his body coldly, and he was aware of every minute change.
The secret of the twelfth level of the Divine Elephant’s Destructive Force wasn’t in the technique of exerting one’s force but in training one’s heart!
No, that’s not right. It should be said that the technique of exerting force at each level was actually related to the mind!
This whole time, he had been taking the wrong path!
