Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 340 - 340 339 Showcasing Movement Technique

340: Chapter 339: Showcasing Movement Technique 340: Chapter 339: Showcasing Movement Technique Even Old Man Di Que and Song Yunxing held a deep reverence for the elder.

Elder Hei Xin, standing beside Song Yunxing, eyed the Fifth-grade Alchemist with flickering interest, his thoughts unreadable.

“Lin, my friend, that is President Meng Chuan of the Engraving Alliance of Heavenly Mountain Country.”

“He is a top Alchemist in Heavenly Mountain Country, and the only Fifth-grade Inscription Master.”

Old Man Di Que’s words were heavy with envy, clearly demonstrating his deep desire and pursuit for being a Fifth-grade Inscription Master.

The seating areas for Dan King Hall and the Medicine Emperor Institute were close, and the atmosphere was tense with rivalry.

“Little Miss Song, I hear you’ve been in seclusion for half a month, your strength must have increased considerably,” Wu Shaoyu sneered, “Just make sure not to blow up your furnace during the competition.”

“Otherwise, how embarrassing it would be in front of so many people!”

“You!” Song Qianqian’s chest heaved with anger, like surging hills, catching Wu Shaoyu’s eye.

“Don’t get too smug; you’re bound to lose in the second round!” she spat through gritted teeth.

She ignored Wu Shaoyu completely, her beautiful eyes filled with deadly intent as she locked her gaze on Lin Xuan.

“I regret that I didn’t kill you when I had the chance, or we wouldn’t have all these troubles!”

“However, today I’ll show you just how powerful I am!”

Lin Xuan squinted his eyes: “I’m ready whenever you are.”

“Hmph, you are the contestants from Dan King Hall?

Pathetically weak!”

A disdainful voice rang out, clearly not taking Lin Xuan and the others seriously.

“What did you say?

Say that again!”

The disciples of Dan King Hall were furious.

As the pride of heaven, how could they tolerate such contempt?

Yet, when they saw who spoke, they all lost their fight.

For it was the short-haired youth, Duan Fei, the only one among the younger generation to have become a Third-grade Alchemist.

Faced with such an individual, the disciples from Dan King Hall felt an inferiority complex.

It wasn’t that they lacked Talent; it was that the opponent was a devil!

Duan Fei stood high above the crowd, looking down on everyone.

“So you’re Lin Xuan?

A mere Second-grade Inscription Alchemist; honestly, I’m disappointed.”

“Strength isn’t something to be seen, it’s to be proven,” Lin said with a slight smile, “Is being a Third-grade Alchemist such a big deal?”

“To me, you’re not that impressive!”

“You dare speak to me like this?” Duan Fei’s tone turned menacing, laced with murderous intent.

“You’re courting death!” Song Qianqian also sneered, “To say a Third-grade Alchemist is useless?”

“Do you even understand the rules?

As soon as Brother Duan’s Third-grade Elixir Pills appear, you’ve lost!”

“Junior Sister Song, let’s go.

When the time comes, we can simply enjoy witnessing their tears of defeat.”

The group left arrogantly.

The Medicine Emperor Institute had lost the first round and were extremely frustrated.

This time, they were determined to show their full strength and crush Dan King Hall under their feet!

Seeing the disciples of Dan King Hall and the Medicine Emperor Institute exchange threats, the surrounding martial artists cheered loudly, stirring up excitement.

They were just there for the show, and certainly didn’t mind things getting out of hand.

Dang dang dang—

As everyone was chattering, the crisp sound of a bell rang out, echoing through Wind Moon Square.

Instantly, the bustling crowd quieted down.

Countless gazes were drawn to the elevated stage in front, where an aged figure stood.

“I hereby announce the start of the thirteenth Pill King Tournament, in the name of the President of the Engraving Alliance!” President Meng Chuan declared loudly.

His voice, like a tidal wave, spread in all directions.

The crowd below erupted with thunderous cheers, even scattering the clouds in the sky.

President Meng Chuan’s voice echoed: “Contestants, please proceed to your designated positions.”

As his words fell, hundreds of figures soared into the air, flying towards the black stone platforms.

Song Qianqian, dressed in a green robe, with Spiritual Power surging under her feet, forming clouds that carried her toward the stone platform.

“How beautiful, she’s like a heavenly woman descending to earth!”

“So young, and yet already a Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artist.

The Medicine Emperor Institute really is extraordinary!”

The surrounding martial artists admired.

The short-haired youth Duan Fei also flew with his hands behind his back, his movements chic, causing many female warriors below to scream.

“Putting on airs, this young master can do that too!” Wu Shaoyu said, an arrogant look on his face.

He turned to look at Lin Xuan with disdain and said, “You’d better think of a decent way to get up there, and don’t disgrace Dan King Hall!”

With that, he shot through the air like an arrow leaving a crossbow.

These few people were all Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artists.

Although Wu Shaoyu’s cultivation had some embellishments, he still could fly.

The others didn’t have such elegant movements.

They were not Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artists, so they could only use their exquisite movement techniques to ascend the platform.

After those people had gone up, the surrounding martial artists turned their gaze to Lin Xuan.

They certainly wouldn’t forget that it was Lin Xuan who, at the exhibition, kept introducing new elixirs, defeating the Medicine Emperor Institute again and again.

“Eh, he’s not a Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artist?

How is he going to get up there?”

“No idea, certainly can’t fly up.”

“He’ll probably use his movement technique, but by doing so, he’ll look very inferior compared to Song Qianqian and the others.”

Lin Xuan touched his nose, thinking this was an alchemy competition, right?

The comparison should be the quality of the Elixir Pills, so why show off movement techniques?

Could qinggong score extra points?

Lin Xuan didn’t understand, but since they wanted a show, he’d give them one.

On the stone platform, Duan Fei, Song Qianqian, and others looked down from above, watching Lin Xuan with a spectator’s interest.

In the stands, a crowd of Elixir Masters also waited for Lin Xuan’s appearance.

Song Yunxing and others had cold smiles on their faces, wishing Lin Xuan would fail to ascend.

Amidst everyone’s anticipation, Lin Xuan took his steps.

He walked upwards step by step, as if climbing stairs.

“What is he doing, does he really think he’s a Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artist?”

“At this rate, he’s going to fall to his death.”

Duan Fei looked down below, a cold smile on his lips: “Truly an idiot!”

However, right then, his pupils suddenly shrank, and an incredulous expression surfaced on his face.

Not just him, the mouths of martial artists all around dropped open, as if they had seen something horrifying.

In mid-air, Lin Xuan walked step by step, his footprints upon the air revealing the phantom image of a silver dragon.

“Stepping on air?

Impossible!”

“He’s not a Spirit Merging Realm Martial Artist, how can he do this!”

“Could it be he was hiding his strength?”

The crowd speculated, but they didn’t sense any fluctuation of Spiritual Energy.

Just when people were puzzled, President Meng Chuan revealed a smile.

“Little guy, what strong Soul Power!”

“Han the Strange, where did you find such a youth?”

As soon as President Meng Chuan spoke, the surrounding Elixir Masters suddenly realized, quickly sensing the changes in the sky.

“This is…

Soul Power!”

“He’s actually using Soul Power to create steps!”

All the elders inhaled a cold breath.

This method was too terrifying.

Not only did it require strong Soul Power, but also precise control power.

The slightest error and he would fall.

The faces of Song Yunxing and others turned gloomy, staring bitterly at Lin Xuan.

“How can this kid have such robust Soul Power!”

“Don’t worry, although he is impressive, he still hasn’t broken through to a Third Grade Alchemist, and he’s still behind Duan Fei.”

“We’re sure to win this competition!” Elder Hei Xin said with a laugh.
