Chapter 40: Suddenly Appearing in the World

  ...The eighth flash of lightning appeared, and three thin flashes of lightning reappeared on both sides of Lin's body.

  The clan leaders in the observation room have forgotten to be surprised, they can almost determine that Lin Heng must have an astonishing talent. Oh my god, he's made a huge fortune! The potential of this Lin Heng is undoubtedly far beyond that of Chen Dachun from Chenjia Village, and it's not inferior to Chen Que by half!

  Their eyes cast towards Huo Tianzhuo, from the initial sympathy and ridicule, have now turned into thorough envy.

  Especially those clan leaders who performed poorly in this grand ceremony, their eyes were so red and hot that they wanted to strangle Huo Tianzhao to death. Their greedy gaze towards Lin Heng was like a hungry wolf seeing a fat sheep, they couldn't wait to snatch him away immediately. Lin Heng's sudden appearance once again changed the entire power ranking, his emergence made Qili Gou capable of competing with powerful opponents like Chen Jia Cun. In comparison, their village's new recruits were at least several kilometers behind, destined to lose their qualification for competition.

  Huò Tiān zhào's heart was pounding like a drum, and he couldn't hear any external sounds. His excited and joyful heartbeat made him almost unable to resist the boiling hot blood. One after another, many young people from Qīlǐ Gōu came to test their skills, but Huò Tiān zhào had already ignored them all, focusing all his attention on Lín Háng. This was also unnecessary, as with the appearance of this stunning jade, Lin Háng, everyone else would be ignored. The other testers who passed were numerous, but in front of such a brilliant and dazzling performance, they could only serve as foils.

  The competition for talent is a competition for the top, and the role and influence of one top talent far outweigh those of owning 100 mediocre qualified people.

  "O bright pearl hidden in the straw heap! Lin Lang, you have also been hiding deeply enough, making everyone think of themselves as useless, but no matter how low-key you are, you can't hide the brilliance of a super genius forever! ---- The glory of a super genius!"

  "Heaven didn't disappoint me, Seven Mile Gully!" Since the Dragon Worship Ceremony, the mediocre performance of Seven Mile Gully had put immense pressure on Huo Tianzhao, the clan leader. Now that he finally saw a brilliant new star emerging from Seven Mile Gully, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with emotions. All his stress and disappointment were lifted like a weight off his shoulders.

  Huo Tianzhao had never felt so deeply exhausted in just a few days, nor had he ever felt the importance of cultivating future pillars. He made up his mind to spare no effort and expense to cultivate Lin Heng into his own successor. He believed that with the combined efforts of the entire village of Qili Gou, within fifteen years, he would definitely be able to promote Lin Heng to the second rank!

  "Qili Gou finally has a successor, and it will not decline in my hands!"

  Huò Tiān Zhào is now fifty-six years old, and after reaching the late stage of the second rank on his path to refining martial arts, he is one of the top three masters in the surrounding ten miles. If Lín Hèng can advance to the second rank, he will have the ability to take over Huò Tiān Zhào's responsibilities and contend with other young opponents!

  Succession is an inevitable thing for human tribes, and cultivating successors is the top priority of every village. Whenever the tribal leader approaches old age, cultivating a successor becomes the first priority.

  An outstanding successor concerns the rise and fall of the entire village for decades to come. Other villages are all cultivating young successors, if Qili Gou cultivates late, it will be at a disadvantage, and cultivating an ordinary successor is equivalent to preparing for being beaten by others in advance.

  "Ding Dong" at this time, Lin's half-closed eyes suddenly lit up: "Success!"

  After a period of deliberation, the potential energy within him successfully simulated the rhythm of lightning energy circulation. This simulation was not the simple shape simulation of the previous divine consciousness, but a subtle and precise way of operation with millions of fine potential energies. For example, the release of energy between fine potentials, energy assistance, etc... The project is grand.

  He intuited those jumping and chaotic-looking energies, only feeling that the operation of the energies was extremely smooth, and as long as he controlled a small segment of energy, he could immediately change the direction, size, and hardness of any segment of energy, it was simply effortless.

  Compared to before, he could only use his power in a straightforward manner like flowing water, which was truly worlds apart.

  Moreover, after mastering this method of controlling and storing energy, one finds that their ability to store energy and their affinity for it have greatly increased. As long as they focus their mind, the stored energy can flow freely between the body's organs and the sea of consciousness at any time.

  Mastering the flow pattern of this thunder, next is to improve the shortcomings of "stacked heavy". He had already grasped some essentials of thunder energy transformation when observing lightning strikes, but after all, the time was too short, and it was impossible to thoroughly perfect "Imprinting Heaven and Earth".

  "After going out, be sure to retreat and ponder carefully!" He had an intuition that once he simulated the mysterious way of controlling lightning, it would not only perfect his layered style, but perhaps also bring him unexpected benefits.

  This time, he unexpectedly gained a lot and was delighted in his heart.

  At this moment, the ninth flash of lightning appeared, and he suddenly woke up to the matter of "Wu Zhe Yin Zheng". He slapped his thigh: Ah! For a moment, he lost himself and forgot the purpose of this trip. Wouldn't it be too late?

  He no longer hesitated, his divine consciousness emerged, and three lightning bolts suddenly trembled, instantly forming a pinwheel shape as they flew in, merging into one within two breaths.

  Lin looked at the slightly thicker lightning bolt in front of him, wiping away the sweat on his forehead: Fortunately, he came to his senses in time, otherwise he would have lost big time! If he had hesitated for another moment, his title as a useless waste would have been set.

  The clan leaders in the observation room were stunned, Lin Heng lightly drew a stroke, and with almost no movement at all, he merged the three lightning bolts into one, leaving them utterly shocked. ——Damn his ancestors! Who said this guy was useless?! Just now, Lin Heng strolled around leisurely, casually controlling the lightning with such skill that even an old martial artist couldn't achieve it!

  Huo Tianzhao sneered, looking at the stunned tribal leaders beside him, feeling relieved and proud, washing away the depression and loss of the past few days.

  With just this move by Lin Huan, it is enough to prove that Lin Huan's innate talent in this martial arts certification has completely crushed all the young generation.

  "It seems that among all the young geniuses, only Chen Que's talent can suppress this so-called 'waste' by a head. Alas, everyone has misjudged him!" Several clan leaders were admiringly praising.

  Lin Heng successfully merged, feeling joyful. At this moment, the tenth lightning bolt suddenly appeared, and since Lin Heng was not storing his divine sense, three lightning bolts scattered in three corners.

  Originally, due to the last tenth thunder and lightning, and the ninth interval was only a short time, Lin Heng successfully merged with the ninth when the interval was too short, and the tenth thunder and lightning still jumped out. In previous verification sessions, such phenomena have been seen repeatedly.

  Of course, whether the tenth round of thunder and lightning is completed or not has no effect on the certification results.

  Lin Heng didn't want to bother at first, but he had just successfully merged and was in a great mood.

  "If I combine the synthetic one with these three new thunderbolts and superimpose them, will it succeed?"

  He was overcome with a childlike impulse and did as he said, only to see his divine consciousness melt out and resonate with the three flashes of lightning.

  "Hmm, the rhythm of these three lightning-fast movements is not much different from before. He's just a conductor, and the three new lightnings quickly merge into one. The four lightnings that were originally in front of him suddenly turned into two, but these two energies are much stronger than the previous fine lightnings."

  The clan leaders outside the observation room saw him succeed and were about to leave when they saw this scene, and they all stopped in their tracks.

  Merging these two merged lightning bolts is not comparable to the original pure small lightning. It must be known that after the fusion of lightning, three properties are immediately inherent. Two lightning bolts have a total of six properties. The rhythm of each property's jump is different, and the fusion of the same property cannot differ by half; every tiny energy distance must be extremely controlled, and it cannot be let go. If you want to succeed, without a strong divine consciousness to explore the subtle uniqueness of each property, it is impossible.

  If there is even a slight mismatch, the reaction will produce rejection and may explode immediately.

  In terms of difficulty, this is hundreds of times more difficult than the simple fusion before.

  Everyone in the observation room saw Lin Heng's idea and was deeply shocked. Among them, there were not a few second-grade cultivators, such as Huo Tianzhao, who was even in the later stage of the second grade. However, if they wanted to merge the two lightning bolts that had already merged once, although it could be done with great difficulty, it would be extremely strenuous. Those below the second grade might not be able to do it!

  Lin Heng surprisingly didn't know his own limitations and rashly tried to merge two bolts of lightning.

  Lin Heng threw away his distracting thoughts, and concentrated his mind to its highest state. The two lightning energies' deployment and transformation changes were like a picture unfolding in his mind, every tiny detail escaping his eyes. It was as if he had become a high-precision supercomputer, intensely calculating in his mind.

  All he saw was his eyes opening wide, and two bolts of lightning floating irregularly in the air began to move.

  Slowly approaching, the "sizzling" contact of lightning in the air triggered a faint hum, under the stunned gaze of everyone, the two thick tails of lightning lightly emitted a wisp of illusion and then merged into another shadow like a shadow entering another shadow, "Whoosh!"

  In the blink of an eye, in mid-air, there was only one lonely and thickened lightning bolt left.

  "Wiped it off, success!" Lin was extremely pleased with himself. Unaware that someone was watching him from inside, he made a triumphant gesture with his arm. After such a complicated operation, which consumed a lot of his spiritual energy and left him drenched in sweat, he finally succeeded, feeling that all the fatigue was worth it.

  The observation room fell into a long silence, with no one speaking and everyone's mind going blank.

  These clan leaders couldn't believe their eyes: An illusion! It must be an illusion, how could Lin Lang possibly achieve this!!!!
