Chapter 105: Knight Temple Hall Master Candidate Ye Ling, greetings to Hall Master Xiao Huo!

Ye Ling rushed toward the Skeleton Knight in an instant, the Angel Holy Sword in his hand erupting with dazzling light.

Without the slightest hesitation, he thrust toward the knight's position; his speed was extreme, and in the blink of an eye, he had already attacked the Skeleton Knight.

It might also have been because he had just finished cultivating and breaking through, and his whole person was immersed in the pleasure of cultivation and breakthrough, unable to quickly emerge.

Thus, he did not react in time; he had forgotten why an undead skeleton would appear in a place like the Knight Sacred Mountain, instantly viewing it as an enemy, and since the other party had no intention of stopping, he naturally used his full strength at once.

"Sun Slash!" In an instant, a Fourth Rank Punishment Knight's Sun Slash descended, hacking toward the Skeleton Knight before him just like that.

Heaven knows what kind of monster this is, it's best not to hold back. "Good lad, you really didn't hold back." The Skeleton Knight was somewhat surprised by Ye Ling's decisiveness, but he did not hold back much either, instantly striking back with a sword.

The Bone Sword in his hand surged with a strange Light Spiritual Power, confronting him, which was very peculiar.

As the two swords collided, the Skeleton Knight was surprised to find that even though this avatar of his also possessed Fifth Rank cultivation, it was actually inferior to this strange youth before him. When it came to combat experience, the Skeleton Knight was certainly above Ye Ling.

But Ye Ling had a terrifying advantage.

"This child, this sword strike is truly..."

"As expected, once the foundation is laid, it is just this terrifying."

"This sword strike—even when I was breaking through to the Fifth Rank and enjoying better resources at the time, I didn't have this level of combat power."

He had wanted to say something, but Ye Ling did not give the Skeleton Knight any chance to argue; the next moment, another long sword appeared in his hand, and he continued to output attacks toward the Skeleton Knight before him in a continuous stream.

Relying on the advantages of his own Spiritual Power and talent, nearly every one of his sword strikes was instantaneous, and the Spiritual Power consumed became less and less, while the power became infinitely more formidable.

This Skeleton Knight only felt the pressure on himself becoming greater and greater.

It made his old face unable to hold up.

"No way, such a monster, it couldn't have existed even six thousand years ago, right? There is actually such a perverted junior six thousand years later?"

"This kid? What kind of talent is this?"

The Skeleton Knight was dumbfounded. His name was Xiao Huo, and he was the first Hall Master of the Knight Temple, as well as the first Hall Master of the Temple Alliance, having stayed in the Fengyin zhi Xue of the Knight Sacred Mountain for six thousand years.

He had originally been in a deep sleep, but because of this black and white power, his avatar had subsequently awakened.

He had originally been studying what had happened, but upon seeing these two juniors, especially Ye Ling, he couldn't help but have a desire to test them.

He never expected that this test would ultimately result in him falling into a disadvantageous position? Xiao Huo himself felt his face flush. This was too shameful, right? "Forget it, I came out to impart experience anyway. Since this youth has this ability, then I will let him know a little in advance."

Thinking of this, Xiao Huo took a step back, and the two long swords in his hands flashed with bursts of terrifying aura, with strange Light Spiritual Power emerging; that aura was very similar to the small beast on top of Ye Ling's head.

Afterward, an eye appeared, just like that, gazing at the Ye Ling before him.

A powerful suppressive force erupted from that eye, carrying the power of rules, instantly impacting Ye Ling.

Even though Ye Ling had the intention to react early, at this moment he couldn't help but feel his chest go numb. Myriad rays of light fell upon him, and in just an instant, he was forced to retreat; it wasn't that he wanted to, but the light demanded it—a forced retreat.

This couldn't help but leave Ye Ling stunned.

How could he not know what this skill was? "This is? Eye of Brahma?"

"Damn, I knew it. No wonder a skeleton could appear in the Knight Sacred Mountain; so it's this person." Ye Ling had a complaint in his heart he really wanted to voice. This old man, having lived for so long, how could he have such inexplicable, strange hobbies?

Sensing his body retreating further and further, Ye Ling couldn't help but become a bit anxious. Although this failure wouldn't affect much, he still didn't want to fail, and at the same time, a trace of longing for the Eye of Brahma welled up in his heart.

Meanwhile, Xiao Huo opposite him had a smile on his lips, a flash of joy in his eyes: "This kid really gave me a hard time just now."

"What, now you know to start getting anxious!"

Xiao Huo laughed inwardly.

His personality was originally relatively steady, but apart from someone like Electrolux who constantly calmed his heart during his long sleep, who else could avoid being extreme?

If one were to set aside the greater cause of humanity, the current Xiao Huo was truly an old urchin. Ye Ling had given him a hard time just now, so naturally, he wanted to take revenge.

It was just that he didn't expect that this day would not come.

The next moment, a layer of strange fluorescence emerged on Ye Ling's body, constantly flashing with a special radiance, and the strange light of the Eye of Brahma was also constantly dissipating.

Seeing this, Xiao Huo was left completely stunned.

No way? This kid? This kid, he?

Well, the current Ye Ling was filled with a strange, void-like white light.

Previously, he had an understanding.

The Eye of Brahma was a terrifying skill created by Xiao Huo after he saw the appearance of the Divine Seal Throne of Eternity and Creation, gained insights from it, and continued to contemplate it for six thousand years.

Its essence was an imitation of the Eternal Throne, or one could say, a miracle of the Creation Origin.

If the little guy on his head was truly related to that being, then perhaps he could break this move.

Carrying such a thought, Ye Ling communicated with the Blood Contract he shared with the little guy, and the final result was just as he had imagined. In an instant, the little guy brought forth layers of strange Spiritual Power, which instantly entered Ye Ling's body.

At this moment, although his strength had not improved at all, his state was somewhat different; just looking ahead, he even had a different feeling?

"Although I still don't quite understand what the situation is."

"But the effect the Eye of Brahma brings me seems to have become much smaller." Ye Ling thought to himself, mobilizing all the Spiritual Power in his body, coordinating with the state he was in, and charging with all his might. At this moment, he even broke through the restrictions brought by the Eye of Brahma and lunged forward.

He actually instantly crossed all the restrictions of the Eye of Brahma, took a step forward, his speed reaching its limit, and instantly rushed toward Xiao Huo, the twin swords in his hands flashing with strange radiance.

Seeing this, Xiao Huo was dumbfounded.

"No... what kind of joke is this?"

"The Eye of Brahma, actually broken? Actually broken directly by this youth?"

Xiao Huo was numb. Could this scene, could this scene really exist? At this moment, he even forgot how to face Ye Ling, just blankly staring at him from where he stood. Six thousand years of heart's blood! A Ninth Rank Eighth Level Knight's insight into a Super Artifact, six thousand years of heart's blood, faced with a knight who had just entered the Fifth Rank, and it was broken just like that?!

Broken, broken!!!

Xiao Huo was very confused, but had no words to respond.

It wasn't until Ye Ling had already rushed to his face that he reacted, but he wanted to remember that this avatar was not his true body.

He was truly numb.

As the founder of the Knight Temple, he never expected that he would want to come out to guide a junior, only to end up having his own avatar damaged... This was truly failing to preserve his integrity in his later years! His old face was completely lost.

Just as Xiao Huo was thinking about all this, he discovered that the Ye Ling before him was no longer attacking, but had stopped one meter away from him, holding his twin swords upright before his chest, and performed a Punishment Knight salute: "Knight Temple Hall Master Candidate Ye Ling, greetings to Hall Master Xiao Huo." Xiao Huo: "..."

Xiao Huo: "???"

Xiao Huo: "!!!"

Good grief, that was unexpected.

At this, Xiao Huo's old face couldn't help but flush; he hadn't expected that after living for so long, the reason he wouldn't be killed off one day would be because a junior discovered his identity.

This was truly embarrassing.

However, having lived for so long, Xiao Huo quickly recovered, looked at Ye Ling before him, and asked: "How did you know it was me?"

"I have entered the Illusion Cave and seen the records of this move of yours, the Eye of Brahma. A previous Hall Master recorded it, though there was no actual remnant of it left within."

"I never expected that you would be guarding the Knight Sacred Mountain. It is my good fortune to have met you today."

Ye Ling said as much.

"Such a young Temple Head Candidate? You certainly don't seem simple." Xiao Huo feigned depth: "Tell me, how did you break my Eye of Brahma?"

"It has nothing to do with me." Ye Ling laughed, and after saying this, he reached out slightly, pulled the small beast on his head into his arms, and said: "It was her."

The small beast had no opinion on Ye Ling's actions; perhaps because it was newly born, it just lazily turned its body, found a more comfortable position, and continued to sleep.

"It was her?" Xiao Huo was puzzled, but the Mental Power of a Ninth Rank Eighth Level Knight was extremely powerful; just by taking a look and roughly grasping some information, Xiao Huo was suddenly invigorated.

Because he had actually sensed the aura of the so-called Creation Origin on this small beast.

"If it is her, then that is normal," Xiao Huo mused, then said: "Child, are you interested in learning the Eye of Brahma?"

He didn't really think Ye Ling could successfully cultivate this terrifying Divine Skill; after all, he had even taught some Ninth Rank Fifth Level Saint Alliance Leaders in the past.

All of them failed!

But, who knows? "I ask that the Hall Master teach me." Ye Ling bowed.

Just because he could rely on this mysterious small beast to break the Eye of Brahma did not mean he didn't need the Eye of Brahma himself.

Even if the Eye of Brahma was only the most basic of the Three Styles of Brahma, it was still a Divine Skill, and one ranked among the best of Divine Skills at that.

Why wouldn't Ye Ling learn it?

"Then let us begin." Xiao Huo nodded, and began to act and explain: "The Eye of Brahma is the first of the Three Styles of Brahma that I created. Its core is..."

Xiao Huo was very clear about the requirements set by the Knight Sacred Mountain; one could stay here for at most thirty days, and there should only be twenty days left now. He didn't actually think Ye Ling could learn the Eye of Brahma in such a short time, but perhaps there really was a possibility? Time passed as he slowly taught.

Three days, barely learned the skill's mental cultivation method.

Seven days, thoroughly understood the skill's mental cultivation method.

Ten days, began to barely be able to condense the radiance within.

Fifteen days, successfully condensed the embryonic form of the Eye of Brahma. He had originally thought this was the limit, but the small beast on his head released power at this moment, giving Ye Ling a deeper realization of the Eye of Brahma and certain powers of the Divine Seal Throne of Eternity and Creation.

Exactly on the twentieth day, Ye Ling successfully displayed a successful Eye of Brahma, causing that incomparable suppression to instantly fall upon Xiao Huo, instantly putting him under no small amount of pressure, only causing his forehead to break open.

But twenty days to learn such a move was enough to shock Xiao Huo.

To be precise, it wasn't just now.

It was every day, every moment during these twenty days of teaching, because he discovered that Ye Ling's comprehension was truly terrifying. No matter what method he used to explain, Ye Ling could immediately correct himself and rectify everything within it... Such terror, one can imagine.

This couldn't help but make Xiao Huo ponder deeply... Could such a terrifying genius really appear in this late Dark Era, a time so lacking in talent? Xiao Huo was very doubtful.

"Thank you, Ancestor Xiao Huo." Sensing that he had successfully released the Eye of Brahma, and seeing the smile on Xiao Huo's face, Ye Ling called out.

"No need to thank me. That is because your comprehension is terrifying enough; it would be the same no matter who taught you." Xiao Huo sighed; he was truly embarrassed to take the credit.

Likewise, he suddenly asked: "Ye Ling, what is your Innate Internal Spiritual Power?"

"Your change of topic is a bit abrupt, isn't it?" Ye Ling teased, but he didn't hide it, speaking as if Xiao Huo would do something about it, and told the truth: "My awakened Spiritual Power was ninety-three, and now it has increased to ninety-six points."

Xiao Huo: "..."

Above ninety points, isn't this a Child of Light?

Good grief, no wonder, no wonder this child could rub against someone like me who has an Innate Internal Spiritual Power of over eighty points; so that was why!!!

"A Child of Light, being able to gain the favor of this mysterious Magic Beast, is indeed normal." Xiao Huo quickly calmed his state and took a long breath, but he still turned his head to look at Long Lingxi and asked: "However, what is that girl's Innate Internal Spiritual Power? Her Magic Beast is not bad either."

"Innate Internal Spiritual Power of ninety-eight points, a Light Saintess." Ye Ling answered simply.

Xiao Huo: "..."

No, are you kidding me? One era, two God-Favored Ones? And both with the light attribute? Xiao Huo only felt that today's shocks were not small, and immediately took a long breath. In any case, he had already obtained the information for this period within the twenty days.

As for the rest... children and grandchildren have their own fortunes. "My avatar here is running out of Spiritual Power reserves, so I will stop talking." Xiao Huo shouted, and the next moment, his avatar of a Skeleton Knight dissipated completely after only a moment.

His true body was still staying in the Fengyin zhi Xue with the other Eternal Heroes; this was just an avatar transformed from a portion of his Mental Power and Spiritual Power.

Wanting to dissolve it was just a matter of an instant.

Actually, he could have stayed longer, but he was afraid—afraid that if he continued, encountered more setbacks, and consumed too much Spiritual Power, he wouldn't even have enough Spiritual Power left to transmit the information back to his true body.

That would be amusing... that would be unfair to his true body. Ye Ling: "..." Watching Xiao Huo's dissipating figure, Ye Ling was speechless. Was that really necessary?

Sure enough, the original work was right; these Eternal Heroes have been in seclusion for countless years, and their tempers are indeed strange as hell. "Woo woo." Just then, the mysterious small beast on Ye Ling's head suddenly stood up and called out toward Ye Ling's back, and Ye Ling immediately turned around.

An unexpected discovery.

Long Lingxi, who had had no results for these twenty days, had a streak of black energy emerge on her body, flashing with strange light in mid-air.

A small beast was slowly taking shape within the black energy.

Ye Ling understood.

That... that was the true arrival of Austin Griffin!
