Chapter 261, Story 261
Seeing that everyone had quieted down.
Lin Hui continued, "The reason why the Nine Heavens Sect is so powerful is not actually due to its martial art, the Nine Heavens Divine Wind Technique, but rather to the four great seals it has mastered. The martial arts are also derived from the insights the founder gained from the original and strongest seal."
He sorted through the memories in his mind and picked out the most typical and representative patriarch to talk about in detail.
Throughout the history of the Nine Heavens Sect, a total of thirteen terrifyingly powerful individuals with the strength to destroy the world have emerged. These thirteen individuals have also made outstanding contributions to world peace in their respective worlds.
Therefore, they are also known as the Thirteen Ancestors of the Nine Heavens.
"Speaking of seals, since my Qingfeng Dao is inherited from the Jiuxiao Sect, it is actually a branch of the Jiuxiao Sect. Although I have never met the founder of the Jiuxiao Sect, I have long admired him. Here, I will introduce to you one of the most distinctive founders of our sect." Lin Hui knew that to convince the people of the fog and get them to genuinely join the Qingfeng Dao, he needed to create momentum. Linking the Qingfeng Dao to the Jiuxiao Sect was the first step in his plan.
Seeing the curious and questioning looks from the crowd, he continued.
"This patriarch's real name was Yan Xiao, courtesy name Jinping, and sobriquet Seven Annihilation True Lord. Because of his irritable and public-spirited nature, he often caused misunderstandings when he acted, which led to him acting too quickly. Seven times in a row, he only realized that he had misunderstood others after wiping out their clans. So he later made a great vow not to kill."
"This ancestor is too self-disciplined. He only accidentally killed a few dozen or a hundred people in seven exterminations. It would be unwise for him to tie his own hands because of this," the girl with pigtails said again.
"Um, this..." Lin Hui hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth. "Actually, the races that the Seven Annihilation True Monarch destroyed were not family races, but entire races. The smallest of these races numbered in the billions. Some even had..." Lin Hui didn't mention the hundreds of billions of those planets.
After all, the concept of planets has never been heard of in this world, and even if it were explained, they might not understand.
Billions?!
Everyone fell silent.
That's an exaggeration!
People had initially treated it as just a story, but upon hearing the claim of the annihilation of billions of lives, they found it completely unbelievable and too exaggerated.
Next, Lin Hui disregarded everyone's thoughts and continued to recount the physical characteristics, life details, and anecdotes of the Seven Destruction True Monarch.
Because he was one of the thirteen patriarchs, almost everyone in the Nine Heavens Sect had to memorize his life story.
However, when talking about how the Seven Destruction True Lord, enraged by the killing of his personal disciple, struck across tens of thousands of miles and sank a massive mountain range covering millions of square kilometers, the story becomes even more poignant.
Almost everyone took it as bragging.
"Alright, whether you believe it or not, the deeds of the Seven Extinction True Monarch are there, and the traces he left behind are still there. Perhaps one day we will have the opportunity to visit and see them. But now, the measurement can officially begin. Everyone, come with me to the courtyard."
Lin Hui smiled and stood up, gesturing for everyone to go into the courtyard.
Most people went out into the courtyard through the side gate, but Lin Hui soon noticed that the girl in the red dress with golden eyes who had asked the question earlier was now staring blankly at him.
"What's wrong?" He looked at Song Feishi and asked softly.
Song Feishi didn't speak, but stared blankly at Lin Hui, or rather, at the person behind Lin Hui.
Lin Hui turned his head around but didn't see anything behind him.
He turned back, kept the scene in his mind, and didn't ask any more questions.
Song Feishi also came to her senses and returned to normal. Having lived for tens of thousands of years, she naturally wouldn't be easily thrown into a state of mental confusion.
However, because the scene behind Lin Hui was too unusual, even she was unable to discern the details of the problem.
That's why it stagnates in a very short time.
Regardless, after less than half a day of contact, she discovered something unusual that had never happened before. This time, Song Feishi knew she had come to the right place.
Even with her vast experience, she couldn't explain or ascertain what was going on behind Lin Hui.
Just as Xie Chang'an said, he was different.
Thinking of this, Song Feishi replied.
"It's nothing, I think I just saw it wrong."
"That's good. Have you been too tired from your daily cultivation? Go back and get some rest later," Lin Hui reassured him.
“Yes.” Song Feishi nodded in response.
At this moment, she couldn't help but look up at what was behind Lin Hui.
Within her golden pupils, countless dense blue threads emanated from behind Lin Hui.
All these threads carried a terrifying and destructive aura that made her heart tremble. At this moment, the threads were slowly and firmly weaving out a four-meter-tall old man in a green robe with white hair.
The old man's eyes shone with a dazzling light like the Milky Way, and he carried a long, narrow sword blade made of seven-colored light on his back. His blurry figure flickered from time to time, as if he had a bad signal.
He slowly and laboriously lowered his head to look at Lin Hui in front of him.
At this moment, Lin Hui also sensed that something was wrong.
His smile vanished quickly, and he tried to sense his surroundings, but couldn't detect anything.
But that uneasy feeling still lingered in my mind.
He immediately retrieved the bloodstain. No matter the problem, as long as the bloodstain was present, and as long as the bloodstain could be involved, it would be marked without omission.
To date, he has never encountered anything that can isolate the blood seal.
This sight startled Lin Hui, and he almost lost control of his expression.
'Warning: By directly addressing someone by their real name, you have attracted the attention of the Seven Annihilation True Monarch. Not all the powerful figures of the Nine Heavens Sect have perished; some possess the ability to attack across worlds. Please be cautious in your words and actions to avoid unpredictable consequences.'
"I was just bragging!!" Lin Hui hadn't sworn in a long time, but at this moment, he really wanted to!
This boasting has caused such a commotion. He thought he had overestimated the founder of the Nine Heavens Sect as much as possible, but he never expected...
Lin Hui quickly shut down the Blood Seal, his emotions a jumble of thoughts. He recalled how one of his insights could be connected to the Nine Heavens Sect in a distant world through the Blood Seal. This naturally meant that the powerful figures of the Nine Heavens Sect might trace back to him through this connection.
After all, now that I think about it, it's questionable whether my own Qingyuan Seal is actually derived from the Blood Seal.
Maybe it was stolen from another sect.
The thought sent chills down Lin Hui's spine. If it really was stolen, it meant that the Nine Heavens Sect's experts would inevitably target Qingfeng Dao once they caught up.
'This is truly an undeserved disaster.' He immediately lost all interest in assessing the newcomer.
Compared to this trivial matter, the matter concerning the Nine Heavens Sect is clearly much more serious.
Next, Lin Hui handed over the main arrangements to Wang Hongshi, letting him handle all the miscellaneous tasks. He then carefully checked the details of his physical condition.
Soon the testing process began, and one by one the newcomers stepped forward to receive Lin Hui's seal.
After three consecutive failures, the fourth person, the little girl with pigtails, actually became the first case to be recognized by the Dharma Seal.
A sharp tearing sound.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, the little girl's muscles swelled up, and she suddenly grew to the height of a 2.3-2.4-meter-tall, muscular man with pigtails.
".!!!"
Everyone stared in disbelief as the burly man with pigtails gasped and covered his private parts.
Fortunately, just as her clothes were torn, Lin Hui waved his hand and a large robe flew over to cover her.
It's clear they were prepared in advance.
"Power...so strong!!" The burly man with twin ponytails grabbed his robe in shock, feeling the surging, violent power within him, his expression exaggerated.
"See that? This is our sect's most mysterious and powerful force, the Dharma Seal. It originates from the Nine Heavens Sect's cross-realm inheritance. As long as you truly acknowledge yourself as a member of the Qingfeng Dao, you can obtain this kind of power enhancement." Wang Hongshi also calmly stepped out, took off his outer clothes and trousers, and shouted, his body also swelling into a tall, muscular, and robust man.
"This form can amplify our overall physical fitness by half, but according to our tests, the amplification in actual combat is three to four times. After all, speed, strength, endurance, reaction speed, etc. are all within the scope of physical fitness amplification, and the combined effect is quite exaggerated."
The newlyweds were stunned.
This is some kind of terrifying magic seal; once you recognize it, your combat power can increase three to four times.
Not to mention them, even the Fourth Princess Song Feishi was deeply shocked.
In her eyes, Qingfengdao was a boastful sect that relied on exaggeration to attract members.
But after actually getting to know them, she discovered that the sect's methods were quite mysterious.
And the mysterious old man's phantom she had seen before, although it disappeared later, still left a deep impression on her.
Then, the specific effects of this seal reminded her of the top-tier secret techniques and relics treasured by the Federation.
There are quite a few things that can increase strength by three to four times, but they all come at a price.
Unlike this place
Soon, an eerie silence descended upon the crowd, a silence that shook them to their core.
One by one, the newcomers who identified with Qingfeng Dao in their hearts successfully obtained the Dharma Seal.
Soon it was Song Feishi's turn to be the third to last person.
She slowly stepped forward, her alluring figure and golden eyes already attracting the attention of many.
Seeing her step forward, everyone secretly hoped that she would pass through smoothly.
After all, it's quite an eye-catching experience to cultivate with a beautiful junior or senior sister.
Song Feishi walked up to Lin Hui. The aura on her body was disguised as the effect of the Federation's top-tier treasure relic set. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have worried that the other party would see through her.
But after the two shocks, Song Feishi was now unsure whether Lin Hui could see through her disguise.
Fortunately, Lin Hui's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were gentle, and he still reached out his hand, gently touching her brow with his index finger.
"Once you enter my sect, regardless of your past or present, you will all become disciples of the Qingfeng Dao. After joining, you must abide by the basic sect rules: First, you must respect your teachers and the Dao; second, you must not kill fellow disciples; third, you must not bully the weak; fourth, you must not indiscriminately kill the innocent; and fifth, you must not divulge our sect's techniques."
After listening for a while, Song Feishi suddenly realized that these sect rules did not include a clause on joint defense against enemies, which is common to many sects and forces.
She quickly voiced her doubts.
