Chapter 80: Want to Run? Too Late!

Sword Qi swept in all directions, like a storm.

In a whistling roar, that massive golden palm was instantly smashed to pieces.

Elder Jin Long's pupils contracted sharply, the flesh on his face twitching—and for the first time, a feeling of fear rose in his heart.

He turned to flee, his mind screaming in disbelief.

How could this be?!

Lin Feng was nothing but a country bumpkin from Ziyun City.

Yet he was the Elder of Haoqi Sect!

The Tianhong Sword had been sent away by Lin Feng; he had no sword in hand—how could he unleash such overwhelmingly powerful Sword Qi?

"Want to run? Too late!"

Lin Feng shook his head and swung his hand out with utter contempt.

That Sword Qi, like the Nine Heavens' silver river pouring down, madly poured onto Elder Jin Long's body.

Under the ravages of the merciless Sword Qi, Elder Jin Long released all his Spirit Qi, madly resisting.

Yet the Sword Qi was unbreakable and unstoppable.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The Sword Qi fell like raindrops, blasting countless holes into the mountains below.

One streak of Sword Qi even sliced off the mountain's peak, revealing a flat, smooth stone cross-section.

Wherever Lin Feng's gaze fell, there was only ruin.

The rumbling sounds spread continuously, and the vast Sword Rain destroyed this divinely crafted scenery.

Elder Jin Long also perished in this Sword Rain.

He was seen pierced through by Sword Qi, his entire body like a sieve.

Those unwilling eyes stared at Lin Feng in shock, until the last wisp of Sword Qi split him from head to foot, turning him into a rain of blood that scattered outward.

This was the power of the first sword among the Nine Swords of the Nine Mystics.

Lin Feng smacked his lips, somewhat dissatisfied, and said: "Still not skilled enough—I actually let the Sword Qi turn into Sword Rain. I should have condensed it more; doing so might have killed this old thing faster."

The sword light faded, the Sword Qi vanished.

Lin Feng had no sword in hand, yet with stunning Sword Path, he easily erased Haoqi Sect's Elder from existence.

Fortunately, no one knew of this matter.

Otherwise, Lin Feng's name would surely echo throughout Leiling Province.

"Time to head back."

Lin Feng turned and flew toward the Lin Family.

Killing that Elder was like killing a chicken—not worth mentioning.

At the same time, within Haoqi Sect, bells rang out loudly.

Everyone raised their heads, looking together toward a mountain peak.

That was precisely the Elder Peak where Haoqi Sect's Elder Jin Long resided.

The bells rang three times, extremely urgent.

After that came three more bell tolls, repeating in this manner, alerting everyone in Haoqi Sect.

"This is…the signal of an Elder's fall!"

"The Elder wasn't in seclusion—why would he fall?"

"Didn't he go out? To attend the Hundred Clans Assembly…"

The people of Haoqi Sect widened their eyes, unable to believe this fact.

That was their Elder!

A powerhouse at the Enlightenment Realm Ninth Layer!

An elder was seen flying through the air; his gaze looked down on all, no trace of Spirit Qi leaking from his body, yet he gave off an inexhaustible sense of oppression.

"Investigate! Investigate for me!"

"This Sect Master must know who killed my Haoqi Sect's Elder!"

The elder gritted his teeth in fury, his voice like thunder.

In an instant, all of Haoqi Sect was thrown into chaos…

Ziyun City, Lin Family.

"The Clan Leader is back." someone called out.

On the martial arts field, the Lin Family juniors who had returned earlier were surrounded by Clan Members; now that Lin Feng had returned, everyone rushed up.

"The Clan Leader is mighty!"

"The Clan Leader is mighty!"

"The Clan Leader is mighty!"

Elder Lin Hai and Third Elder Lin Zhengshang were the first to shout out.

The martial arts field was filled with jubilation.

The ten members of the Lin Family were surrounded in the center, and they in turn surrounded Lin Feng; the entire Lin Family had turned out for this scene.

"Our Lin Family has won first place in the Hundred Clans Assembly!"

"Doesn't that mean from now on we're the number one family in Leiling Province?"

"Hahaha! The three great families have all been trampled under our feet!"

Countless Clan Members were overjoyed; this news was like a thunderclap, delighting everyone beyond measure.

Winning first place in the Hundred Clans Assembly—something they wouldn't have dared imagine yesterday—was truly accomplished today.

Not only that, but all ten members of the Lin Family went and all ten returned — a miracle among miracles!

Lin Hai and Lin Zhengshang had originally expected that this time the Lin Family would at most make it into the Top Ten, and would still have to lose quite a few of their juniors.

Yet the final result far exceeded their expectations.

【Ding! Hundred Clans Assembly ended, Family Fortune Value +1500!】

【Ding! Overwhelming Momentum achievement reached Level Two, Reward obtained: 5000 Qi Luck Value!】

【Ding! Family achieved the Fame-Shaking achievement, Reward obtained: 5000 Qi Luck Value!】

【Overwhelming Momentum (Level Two): Lin Family juniors' cultivation speed increased threefold, Comprehension raised by thirty percent.】

A string of sounds rang out in Lin Feng's mind.

The corner of Lin Feng's mouth curved up as he rejoiced inwardly.

At the start, the Overwhelming Momentum achievement could only double cultivation speed, and Comprehension was only ten percent.

Now that it has leveled up, it has successfully risen to threefold and thirty percent.

From now on, the cultivation of the Lin Family's Clan Members will be smooth sailing.

Sure enough, when Lin Feng looked at the Lin Family members again, he found a touch of enlightened color in their eyes.

Every member of the Lin Family being like a dragon is truly not just empty talk.

"The Qi Luck Value reward is this generous directly, since that's the case…"

Lin Feng was calculating in his heart.

Lin Xuan already has Venerable Grade Comprehension and Spiritual Root, yet Lin Yan and Lin Ya haven't kept up.

Since they are the Lin Family's Three Heroes, then take care of all of them.

"Level up!"

Lin Feng opened the panel and directly raised Lin Yan and Lin Ya's Comprehension and Spiritual Root to Venerable Grade.

Upgrading from Imperial Grade to Venerable Grade costs one thousand Qi Luck Value.

In the past, Lin Feng simply couldn't bear to part with it.

But now that he has the confidence, naturally there's no need to pinch pennies.

Lin Yan and Lin Ya's eyes lit up; for some reason they both felt their whole person had become clear and refreshed.

Lin Yan vaguely felt that the flame in his dantian seemed to show signs of being completely absorbed.

Lin Ya even more so blossomed his Sword Heart, and among the Nine Swords of the Nine Mystics he had comprehended, the second sword was also nearly mastered.

This is the benefit brought by Venerable Grade Comprehension and Spiritual Root.

"Elder, there's something I need to discuss with you." Lin Feng said with a smile.

Lin Hai heard this, his face full of trepidation, and hurriedly waved his hands: "Clan Leader, if you have something to instruct just say it, why discuss."

Everything the Lin Family has today was brought by Lin Feng.

How would Lin Hai dare not observe the order of seniority?

He is now utterly prostrate in admiration toward Lin Feng.

"I plan to plant some things in the clan, where do you think would be good?"

The corner of Lin Feng's mouth curved up; he wanted to plant the Jinyuan Fruit Tree and the Ten Thousand Dao Seed — these two items are both treasures that can greatly enhance the family's foundation.

"Clan Leader, you want to plant medicinal materials?"

At this moment, Lin Zhengshang came over.

"If it's ordinary medicinal materials, then it doesn't matter where you plant them, but if it's high-grade medicinal materials, I'm afraid our Lin Family can't grow them."

Hearing these words, Lin Feng's face was full of curiosity.

"To plant Three-Star Medicinal Material or above, one would need the Nine Heavens Precious Soil."

Lin Zhengshang began to explain — growing medicinal materials is not that easy; if anyone could grow them, how would Pills be so expensive?

Besides Alchemists being hard to train, medicinal materials are also hard to find!

And the Nine Heavens Precious Soil is precisely the best spiritual soil for growing medicinal materials.

But this item is also not cheap, and even more precious!

"Where can it be found?" Lin Feng immediately asked.
