Chapter 284: Chapter 284 Four Character True Elemental Technique

"However, although my cultivation has improved, the degree of improvement is so slight that it is almost negligible. Now, because I have cultivated the Ancient Dominating Soul Technique, all my Soul Eyes are open, what’s left is to fuse the Soul Eyes. Without merging the Soul Eyes, my cultivation can’t truly improve."

Lin Fan felt that he must find a way to quickly locate the strange energy between heaven and earth and merge his Soul Eyes as soon as possible.

"Fan, are you awake?"

At that moment, a very abrupt voice suddenly sounded.

The voice was so abrupt that Lin Fan was completely unprepared and was startled, but soon Lin Fan was on alert, ready to strike in case something was happening around him.

"You cheeky boy, you plan to hit me? Truly rebelling against the heavens!"

The voice that had just spoken spoke again.

Lin Fan was startled and asked, "Father?"

Because Lin Fan had clearly heard the voice just now; it was Lin Dingtian’s voice.

Then, the space rippled, and Lin Dingtian appeared in front of Lin Fan, smiling and saying, "Fan, you’ve slept for quite a long time."

Not expecting to encounter his father here, Lin Fan was both surprised and delighted, asking, "Father, why have you come here?"

Lin Dingtian said, "If I didn’t come, you might do something foolish."

Lin Fan puzzled, asked, "What?"

Lin Dingtian spoke slowly, "Fan, I know you want to find your mother, but..."

At this point, Lin Dingtian hesitated.

However, Lin Fan became more anxious, asking, "Father, what exactly is happening with my mother?"

After sighing, Lin Dingtian continued, "Ah, Fan, in short, you should not seek out your mother now, because your current strength is too weak, not to mention you, even I am not qualified."

Lin Fan was shocked.

He knew that Lin Dingtian’s cultivation had reached the level of Saint Ascension.

Yet, even Saint Ascension level cultivation was not enough to confront it? Lin Fan found it hard to imagine what formidable entity was behind his mother.

After a while, Lin Fan said, "Father, it would be good if you could tell me a bit about my mother’s situation."

Lin Dingtian still shook his head, saying, "It’s not that I refuse to tell you, but with your current strength, knowing too much might actually harm you, so you better grow stronger quickly."

Lin Fan fell silent.

After looking at Lin Fan, Lin Dingtian asked, "Do you know why I joined the army back in the day?"

Lin Fan shook his head a bit confusedly.

In fact, Lin Fan did not understand why Lin Dingtian would join the army, knowing that Lin Dingtian’s power was formidable and he could have made his way in the world even without joining the army. Little did he expect that not only would he join the army, but he ended up trapped within the Space Fragments of the Outer Realm Battlefield. If it was not for Lin Fan’s fortunate rescue that day, Lin Dingtian would still be adrift upon the Space Fragments.

Lin Dingtian continued, "Actually, I joined the army because I wanted to carve out a future for myself within, thinking maybe then I could reunite with your mother, but... alas, it was still impossible!"

At this point, Lin Dingtian’s expression turned even more solemn, he continued, "Perhaps, your mother and I are destined to be star-crossed, maybe, I should have given up long ago!"

Lin Fan, not knowing where his courage came from, suddenly said, "No, Father, I will definitely bring back my mother, I will for sure!"

Determination was written all over Lin Fan’s face.

Lin Dingtian looked at Lin Fan, his heart inevitably a bit heartbroken, for only he himself knew how difficult it would be to bring Lin Fan’s mother back.

Eventually, Lin Dingtian just shook his head, as ultimately, he did not want to dampen Lin Fan’s enthusiasm.

Then, as if recalling something, Lin Dingtian took out a jade scroll from within his robes, saying, "Fan, this is a martial skill I accidentally acquired in the Outer Realm Battlefield, incredibly powerful, it is definitely a Saint level martial skill, you can cultivate it on your own. After cultivating it, it will be quite helpful in enhancing your power!"

Lin Fan couldn’t help but ask, "What martial skill is this?"

Lin Dingtian smiled and said, "You’ll know once you read it!"

During the conversation, Lin Dingtian stood up.

Lin Fan asked, "Father, are you..."

Lin Dingtian simply said, "I must leave now!"

"Father..." Lin Fan still wanted to say something.

However, Lin Dingtian waved his hand, interrupting Lin Fan, saying, "Fan, take care of yourself."

Eventually, Lin Dingtian left, and Lin Fan stood there quietly, not saying a word, just watching Lin Dingtian leave.

After Lin Dingtian had left, Lin Fan sighed in his heart and thought silently, "Mother, where exactly are you?"

At this moment, Lin Fan was very eager to enhance his strength...

Previously, Lin Fan’s motivation to enhance his strength was to return to the Holy Soul Domain sooner, but today, Lin Fan had another goal, which was to find his mother after increasing his power.

"Right, what exactly is this martial skill that father gave me?"

Curiosity arose in Lin Fan’s heart.

Then, Lin Fan began to study the martial skills...

The name of this martial skill was quite peculiar, called the "Four Character True Elemental Technique."

"Four Character True Elemental Technique?"

Lin Fan found the name odd and thought to himself: "This name is indeed strange, but quite intriguing!"

The so-called Four Character True Elemental Technique actually could be described in just four words: collapsing, crumbling, destroying, annihilating!

Each word represented one move in the Four Character True Elemental Technique.

This meant that the Four Character True Elemental Technique consisted only of these four moves.

However, the power of the moves unleashed by different people after practicing the Four Character True Elemental Technique varied; the cultivation of this technique was individual-dependent.

Because, the essence of the Four Character True Elemental Technique was integration, constantly integrating all the martial skills previously practiced.

For instance, once Lin Fan practiced the Four Character True Elemental Technique, all the martial skills he had previously practiced, like Heavenly Stealing Spear Technique, Flame Dragon Spear Intent, Sky Breaking Spear, and so forth, would completely integrate into the Four Character True Elemental Technique. Once Lin Fan succeeded in cultivating it, all his previous martial skills would disappear, leaving only these four moves.

Once the Four Character True Elemental Technique was successfully cultivated, its power was indescribable.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that if Lin Fan truly managed to cultivate the Four Character True Elemental Technique successfully, his combat power could increase by at least one minor realm.

For example, Lin Fan’s combat power had already reached the late period of the Heavenly Profound Realm. Once he cultivated the Four Character True Elemental Technique, his combat power could at least reach the perfect state of the Heavenly Profound Realm.

"Hehe!"

Lin Fan laughed happily and thought to himself: "Previously, father said this cultivation technique is a Saint Ascension level technique. In my view, it’s not just a simple Saint Ascension level technique, moreover, I seem to feel that this technique can even evolve!"

You should know, a cultivation technique that can evolve is incredibly heaven-defying!

Because no one knows to what extent a cultivation technique that can evolve might ultimately develop.

"Never mind that, let’s start cultivating it!"

Then, Lin Fan started to practice the Four Character True Elemental Technique day and night.

Originally, Lin Fan had come to the Imperial City early on just to find his mother, but after hearing Lin Dingtian’s words, Lin Fan could only temporarily give up this plan, knowing that his father would never harm him since he didn’t reveal more, there must be a reason.

Since he couldn’t search for his mother’s whereabouts now, the only thing he could do was to enhance his strength first.

In any case, everything should wait until his strength increased.

These days, Lin Fan was constantly practicing and researching...

However, what Lin Fan never expected was that the cultivation of the Four Character True Elemental Technique was even more daunting than he had imagined, and it even contained some errors?

The presence of these errors affected Lin Fan’s cultivation.

It could even be said that if he continued to practice with these errors, he might go astray.

Luckily, Lin Fan had the Universal Image. At a critical moment, the Universal Image activated its special function, directly modifying the Four Character True Elemental Technique. With the improved technique, Lin Fan made much faster progress.

Even so, after nearly ten days, Lin Fan had only grasped some tricks of the Collapsing Character Technique. To truly master the Collapsing Character Technique, it still required time to refine.

This day, as Lin Fan was practicing, Li Rou arrived again.

"Sister Rou!"

Lin Fan was somewhat surprised by Li Rou’s sudden arrival.

In an annoyed tone, Li Rou said to Lin Fan, "You, still practicing here tirelessly? Aren’t you here to take part in the Royal Academy’s examination?"

Lin Fan was startled and then nodded, "Yes, I’m here to take part in the examination of the Royal Academy. Right, Sister Rou, has something happened?"

"I don’t even know what to say about you!" Li Rou was defeated by Lin Fan’s behavior and said, "Today is the day of registration for the Royal Academy’s examination. Aren’t you going to register? If you don’t register, how can you participate in the examination?"

"Ah?"

Lin Fan exclaimed, "Damn it, I have been practicing these days, and I was so absorbed in it that I completely forgot the time. It’s awful, registration requires preparation of many things, and if I need to gather everything required, I might miss the registration time. What should I do?"

Lin Fan felt truly frustrated.

Li Rou then said, "If you were to prepare by yourself, who knows if you could still participate in the examination? Don’t worry, I have already prepared everything needed for the registration for you!"

As she spoke, Li Rou threw Lin Fan a bag containing the necessary items for registration.
