Episode 9: Fame Shatters the Heavens Chapter 2: Breakthrough in Spiritual Power
The shock of six Holy Realms was too great, and it took a long time for Walton and the few of them to cool down that feverish brain. But when it cooled down, what they had in their hearts was endless excitement.
They had recently been agonizing over Nina’s marriage to Wharton.
The identity of the Martial God’s personal disciple with Olivia had really brought too much pressure. And now they all had full confidence in their hearts.
Walton had a huge smile on his face, his own brother brought with him so many powerful people. It was as if Walden saw the scene when he and Nina got married.
“Brother, thanks, cheers.”
Walden raised his glass.
Linley smiled and raised his glass as well.
Walton had admired Linley since he was a child, and it was naturally remarkable for an Ernst Magic Academy student to come out of the middle of Usan Town. And after seventeen years, Linley unexpectedly possessed two Saint Realm Magical Beasts while following three Saint Realms.
“Brother, in a few days it’ll be the Magnolia Festival, and you’re almost 27 years old. When are you going to get married.”
Walden inquired in a low, playful voice in Linley’s ear.
“You brat.”
Linley laughed, “Don’t talk about this aspect for now.”
“Oh.”
Walton obediently nodded.
Even though he, Wharton, was now an Imperial Earl, he was also a large man of two meters two. But in front of Linley, he was still the same as when he was a child.
“Actually, Lina and the three girls, they’re all very nice.”
Walton said secretly.
Linley slapped Walden on the head.
“Don’t say it. Don’t say it. Drink, drink.”
Wharton said in a hurry.
Next to them, the ground steward, Hilly, and Hillman, seeing Linley and Walton’s two brothers like this, couldn’t help but feel very relieved in their hearts as well. Looking at each other, they all smiled as well.
In the few days that he had just arrived at the Earl’s Mansion, Linley and his brother had been very happy. It was just that Linley had instructed Walden and the others that it was fine for him and Heilu to leak out their holy domains, but the strength of the five Barker brothers and Bebe had been kept secret for the time being.
The five Barker brothers and Bebe were Linley’s important dependents.
Moreover, in the entire O’Brien Empire, almost no one knew that the Barker Brothers were immortal warriors. So it was easy to keep it a secret.
Linley and Heilu, a Saint realm magical beast, these two Saint realms, should be enough to deter outsiders.
December 30th, 10008 of the Yulan Calendar, the day before the Yulan Festival. Heavy snow fell from the sky, and the entire O’Brien Empire was completely covered in snowflakes, the sky and earth all white.
On Fushi Road, on the practice field of Earl Walton’s residence. Although snowflakes were flying. But Linley was still sitting cross-legged on the grass in meditation. A man as tough as Walton naturally didn’t care about snowflakes.
“Whew.”
Walton’s bare-chested upper body was filled with hot air, and after placing the Battle Blade Slaughter in his hands to the side, he first prepared to rest for a while. But when he saw Linley, who was meditating next to him – “Eh?”
Walden was surprised to find that although the snowflakes were flying, all of them circled away when they approached Linley’s body, as if there was a whirlwind around him, and there wasn’t even a single snowflake on his clothes.
“This is?”
Walden was a little surprised.
Linley, who had originally been meditating. Eyes suddenly opened, “Walden. What are you looking at?”
Even though he had just been in the middle of serious cultivation, Linley felt it when someone gazed at him.
“Big brother. That snowflake, what? Could it be the Potential Earth realm recorded in the family books?”
Walden said in surprise.
Linley smiled and said, “Walton, reaching this level of potential, the ground is indeed able to make snowflakes rain without touching the body, but that requires full control of the surrounding heaven and earth’s potential. It’s absolutely impossible, while practicing, to achieve this level mindlessly.”
Linley hadn’t made a deliberate effort to do so just now, just a thought, and that snowflake couldn’t lean against his body.
“Transcending potential, what is that?”
In the bottom of his heart, Walden truly admired his big brother.
He had been practicing hard for so many years, and had also received the best education in O’Brien Academy, but to this day, he had only just reached the point of lifting weights as recorded in the family books.
In fact, Walden didn’t have to be too modest, Linley was able to break through at such an amazing speed, in addition to the fact that he was indeed a genius in his own right, his superlative elemental affinity had also helped a great deal.
To the average person, elemental affinity meant a short time to cultivate magical power. However, to the strong, it meant that it was easier to get close to nature and merge with it. It was easier to realize the laws of heaven and earth.
“This is the Upanishad of the Earth’s Wind that I’ve comprehended.”
Linley smiled blandly, “This is merely the simplest utilization.”
“The Upanishad of Wind?”
Walden’s eyes glowed.
“You continue to cultivate.”
Linley said, and then closed his eyes to meditate again.
In fact, nowadays, Linley had less time to perform stone sculpture carvings, unless there was that impulse, that emotion that came up when Linley carved, it was easier for him to get into the state, and the results got better and better.
Normal stone carving, the effect is similar to Linley’s meditation.
Nowadays, with Linley’s understanding of the Wind Elemental Laws and Earth Elemental Laws, when he meditated, the degree of integration with nature had already caught up with the effects of normal stone carving.
This kind of meditation in the realization of the Laws also caused Linley’s mental power to continue to progress at a constant rate.
Linley, who had been in meditation, had a trace of a smile on his originally indifferent face, and then Linley’s lips moved slightly, and before long – “Brush!”
The originally seated Linley’s entire body moved at a terrifying speed. In the same instant, nine Lin Lei appeared at the same time in various corners of the entire practice field, in various locations.
Immediately, the nine residual shadows disappeared, and Linley reappeared in the place where he had originally sat cross-legged.
It was only at this moment that Linley opened his eyes, ”Claimed to be the strongest speed-assisting magic. The wind system level 9 magic Wind Shadow Technique really lives up to its name. Surprisingly, it allowed me to catch up with the fastest speed in my human form when I transformed to reach the Holy Realm.”
Right!
Ninth level magic!
Back then, Linley had reached rank eight magician after stepping into the Magical Beast Mountain Range for about a year and a half, but going from a rank eight magician to a rank nine magician required a staggering amount of mental strength. Even talented magicians usually needed more than ten years.
But Linley had been in meditation for a long time, and his mental strength had progressed extremely quickly.
It had only taken seven and a half years. He finally broke through and eventually reached the point where he was now a rank nine Grand Magus.
“Tomorrow is the Magnolia Festival, and the day before this Magnolia Festival, reaching the ninth level Great Magical Guide realm. It’s really ……”
Linley was also extremely happy in his heart.
Magician attack power was terrifying, as long as a magician was given time, a magician of the same rank could definitely defeat a warrior of the same rank with magic. The wide range magic of a special magician was appalling.
“By tomorrow, I will be counted as 27 years old, 27 years old 9th level dual system grand magician. There hasn’t been one in history, right?”
Linley had a scene of confidence on his face.
It was terrifying.
A 27 year old rank nine dual system grand magical guide was simply a terrifying record that had never been seen before in the history of the Yulan continent. The number one ranking in the past. When they reached rank nine Grand Magician, they were also over thirty years old.
“Of the wind system magic, such as the Storm Dragon Scroll, it’s not difficult to deal with an army of 100,000, right? And of the earth magic. Such as the City State of Earth. It’s also a large range defense magic. ……”
Linley had to admit that the more powerful the magician, the more terrifying the role he played in the war.
And magicians, too, were strong in single attacks.
“The wind system ninth level magic Vacuum Extinction, a single magic that claims to be able to potentially kill even holy domains only if it has enough magical power. It’s truly perverse.”
Linley couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that wind magic was formidable, the Vacuum Extinction was one of the strongest attacks amongst all the rank nine magic, and the Sublime Blade was one of the strongest amongst the forbidden spells.
Earth magic was also famous for its defense, whether it was single. Or group defense.
The great gravity spell at the ninth level magician level. It can make some strong people, directly rupture their hearts and shatter their blood vessels. Death on the spot. After all, some people, although their muscles are powerful on the outside, the toughness of their internal organs, blood vessels, and so on may not necessarily be much stronger.
“But for me, the most useful is the Wind Shadow Art. The strongest ground speed additional magic!”
In human form, Linley’s speed was more than twice as slow as in his Holy Domain state. But by relying on the Wind Shadow Technique, the human form caught up to the speed of the transformed form. It was terrifying. On this day, the sun shone brightly on the snowflakes covering the branches and roofs of the trees, reflecting a dazzling light, and the entire Imperial Capital seemed to be much brighter.
On this day, the imperial capital would also hold a grand celebration.
On the carriage.
Linley, who had returned from watching the event, and Wharton were in the same carriage, and Wharton was talking to Linley about Nina’s matter and how exactly to deal with it.
“Walden, in two more days, you’ll be taking me, to meet that emperor’s majesty.”
Linley said directly.
“Meet His Majesty?”
Walden looked at Linley in surprise.
Linley smiled faintly, “I don’t have a grudge against the O’Brien Empire either, so if that Emperor’s Majesty can get Nina to marry you, I wouldn’t mind, settling in the O’Brien Empire.”
Walden looked at his brother, and in his heart, he understood what Linley meant.
“If that emperor, who doesn’t know better, insists on marrying the seventh princess to Brummer. Then there’s only one last trick to use, to directly snatch Nina and then the two of you elope.”
Linley looked at Walden, “Walden, are you willing to accept this outcome?”
Walden was silent for a moment and said, “Of course I don’t care, and I have no sense of belonging to the O’Brien Empire. It’s just that Nina she ……”
“The seventh princess will object?”
Linley inquired.
This point was important. Walden shook his head, “I know Nina, back when I was fighting for the land with Kellan, Nina said that if His Majesty truly forced her, she would run away with me. It’s just that Nina was worried about running away.”
“You don’t have to care about that, unless the Martial God himself comes out.”
Linley said blandly.
Linley also knew that with the Martial God’s identity, he wouldn’t care about such trivial matters. Unless the empire encountered a shocking crisis, the Martial God might only show up.
Normal things were assassinations of emperors. The God of Wushu wouldn’t even care.
The God of Wushu has many descendants, and after the death of an emperor, there will be others to succeed. As long as it wasn’t a major event that subverted the foundation of the empire, the Martial God, who could already be considered a deity, wouldn’t care. A carriage appeared outside the palace gates, and a tall young man in warrior’s power suit came out of the carriage one after the other with a young man in black robes.
“Earl Walton, this is ……”
The palace gate guards inquired, with their eyesight they could see that this person next to Earl Walton was by no means an ordinary person.
Wharton smiled lightly and said, “This is my elder brother, I want to bring him to see His Majesty.”
The palace gate guards did not make things difficult and directly released him. In fact, it wasn’t difficult to get in at the outermost palace gate of the palace, as long as someone with a bit of status could bring someone in. Because the palace was huge, and the guards at some important places within the palace were strict.
“Stand still.”
The two guards bellowed, “Earl Walton, who is that next to you?”
“Please inform me, this is my big brother Linley, I brought my big brother here to see His Majesty.”
Wharton immediately said.
“You guys wait a moment first.”
One of the guards drank, and immediately he ran inside the courtyard doors. There were extremely many experts within this courtyard, and without His Majesty the Emperor’s permission, those nobles were not allowed to trespass at all. After a while, that guard came over, “His Majesty allows you to enter.”
“There are quite a few experts.”
Linley stepped into the courtyard, feeling the wind elemental fluctuations and easily discovering where each expert was.
After walking for a while and circling around for a long time, he arrived outside an elegant study.
“Your Majesty.”
Walton shouted loudly.
“Haha, Walden, I heard that your big brother Linley has come? Come in quickly.”
Imperial Emperor Qiao An’s bright voice came out from within that study.
With a faint smile, Linley took a step inside this study.
