When everyone saw the two new forms of energy that appeared around Lin Fan, they couldn’t help being shocked.
But no one was more shocked than the elders from the Hidden Dragon Sect.
That was because they recognized the two new forms of elemental energy that Lin Fan had brought out.
“Clear Water and Azure Wind…these are pure elemental energy that are ranked on the Primordial Water and Primordial Wind Rankings!”
Primordial Water and Primordial Wind Rankings, these were lists of pure water and wind elemental energy that rivaled that of the pure fire elemental energy on the Primordial Flames Rankings.
They had heard of people being able to control these pure elemental energies before, but they had never heard of a single person being able to contain all of these pure elemental energies in their body at the same time.
One shouldn’t look down on how much energy was contained in one of the Primordial Waters, Winds, or Flames. This was a large amount of energy that would make one explode unless they were strong enough to contain it.
Just being able to wield one of these was already enough to consider a person a genius, but…
What if someone wielded all three?
At that point, they would have no choice but to acknowledge that person as a monster!
But all they could think was…
As expected of the sect master, only someone like him could perform a feat like this.
They still thought that Lin Fan was their sect master who had stolen Lin Fan’s body and was now acting as him.
So they all thought that he was some kind of monster in the first place.
During the time that he had been away, the fear towards him in their hearts had dwindled a little. But after seeing this display, they could only feel that fear growing again.
At this rate, it wouldn’t take long before he caught up to them in cultivation and they wouldn’t be able to do a thing to him.
So right now…they should try to do what they could to prove that they were useful to him or else when the time came, they would be disposed of.
As for plotting to kill him, none of them thought that.
He had something that could kill them all with a single thought, so unless they could kill him instantly, they would never be able to free themselves. And even then, there was the possibility that he had rigged something up so that they would all die if he died.
They wouldn’t put it past this sect master who had stolen these pieces of their souls in the first place.
So they would never consider betraying him.
As for Senior Brother Ying, he could feel the pressure that came from these three forms of elemental energy even without what the Hidden Dragon Sect elders said.
When facing them, it was like facing a mountain of pressure that fell onto him.
He knew that when Lin Fan became serious, he would have to get serious too or else he really might lose.
The Hell Flames had been able to counter his sword energy, so he wasn’t sure if these two new pure elemental energies could do the same. If this Clear Water and Azure Wind could also block his sword energy, then there wouldn’t be anything that he could do.
Lin Fan would just be able to create an elemental barrier around himself and he wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
It would then turn into a battle of stamina and so far, he hadn’t even seen Lin Fan get tired yet.
It was as if he wasn’t even using any spiritual energy to utilize these pure elemental energies.
So in the end, it would be him that would tire first…
Senior Brother Ying looked at the three pure elemental energies around Lin Fan with a bitter smile as he asked, “Are those two just as strong as the Hell Flames?”
Lin Fan just calmly gave a nod in response to this.
Senior Brother Ying then said with an even more bitter smile, “Is there any chance that I can convince you to end this in one move?”
Lin Fan calmly shook his head.
Senior Brother Ying really was stuck between a rock and a hard place in this situation…
If he wanted to get out of this, he had to figure out a way to break through Lin Fan’s defenses and he just couldn’t think of a way to do so…
In the end, Senior Brother Ying just raised his hands and said, “I give up.”
Since he couldn’t find a way to break through Lin Fan’s defense, then there was no need to continue this.
They weren’t having a battle to the death and this was a simple spar between them to test out Lin Fan’s new powers.
So he could just give up if he didn’t feel like he could win.
As soon as he gave up, Lin Fan let out a deep breath before releasing those pure elemental energies and falling to the ground.
When Senior Brother Ying saw this, he couldn’t help revealing a shocked look.
He looked at Lin Fan with a strange look before saying, “You were bluffing?”
Lin Fan looked at him with a wide smile on his face as he gave a simple nod.
Senior Brother Ying once again revealed a bitter smile when he saw this.
He had assumed that Lin Fan had plenty of spiritual energy left, which was why he had given up. But now that he found out that Lin Fan was just pretending…he had to admit that this kid really was good at acting.
The way that he forced his breath to be calm, he couldn’t see any signs of exhaustion from Lin Fan at all.
But seeing him panting for breath now on the ground like this, he knew that he had been completely played!
However, Senior Brother Ying wasn’t angry about it at all.
This was just part of Lin Fan’s plan and he had been outplayed, he couldn’t complain about this.
This went to show that their sect master wasn’t just powerful, but also smart.
This was a good sign for their future.
Senior Brother Ying just walked up to Lin Fan and reached his hand out towards him to help him up.
Lin Fan saw this and didn’t hesitate to grab his hand to let himself be pulled up.
This was a good show of sportsmanship, but also this was a good show that they were a big family in this sect.
That was the most important thing of all since the most fearsome enemy was the ones within rather than the ones outside. As long as there wasn’t any discourse in their sect, then all would be well in the future.
But after being pulled up, he found that Senior Brother Ying wouldn’t let his hand go.
Lin Fan was about to say something or try to pull his hand back, but he saw the smile on Senior Brother Ying’s face as he looked at him. He knew that he had been trapped by Senior Brother Ying and wouldn’t be able to escape.
Normally, he would be able to leave the matters of handling the sect to these elders, but now that Senior Brother Ying had trapped him.
Senior Brother Ying even sealed his fate by saying, “Sect master, let’s go discuss the matter of the sect recruitment.”
If he couldn’t get back at him with the spar, then he would get back at him in another way.
Senior Brother Ying could be petty like.
To help Senior Brother Ying, the other elders all came forward to surround Lin Fan so that he wouldn’t have anywhere to go. Even if he had the energy to escape, he couldn’t when he was surrounded like this.
So he could only allow himself to be taken away like this.
His new abilities really were draining on his stamina, so he wasn’t able to keep them up for long.
But there was no doubt the power that was contained in these new abilities.
His partial awakening of his Five Elemental Heavenly Root had allowed him to use the powers of the three pure elemental energies in his dantian more effectively.
Before, he could only use them as part of his other attacks, but now he was able to control them directly.
This had greatly increased his power when using these pure elemental energies.
And if he wanted to, he would even be able to combine them because of his spiritual root which would give him much more power. This was just like the ice and fire combination that he had done before, but it would be much stronger since this attack used pure elemental energy.
But of course, he couldn’t use that against Senior Brother Ying.
This was an attack that he couldn’t control the power of and unless he wanted to kill the enemy, he wouldn’t use it against anyone.
This was an attack where if he lost control, lives would be easily lost.
But he could already imagine just how powerful it would be.
With this, he would even be able to face off against those in the Peak Qi Condensation Realm as long as he didn’t mind risking his life.
At the same time, this attack could only become stronger as he collected the two remaining pure elemental energies.
He could only look forward to seeing just how strong he would become.
It could be said that the future was bright, if it wasn’t for the looming danger that he faced.
But that was why he was forcing this sect recruitment in the first place.
