Inverse Sword Mad God
Chapter 368 - 368 367 The Peculiar Sixth Star

368: Chapter 367: The Peculiar Sixth Star 368: Chapter 367: The Peculiar Sixth Star Lin Xuanxuan nodded slightly.

He walked slowly over to the Force Measuring Stone and observed it carefully.

His gaze flickered.

He secretly deployed his Pupil Skill, but still, he didn’t find anything unusual.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xuan could only use the conventional method to test his power.

He operated his Spiritual Power at full force, and his right palm swung out violently, with the vast virtual shadow of a mountain peak appearing.

“Mountain and River Seal!”

Lin Xuan unleashed the power of the mountains and rivers, crashing towards the Force Measuring Stone.

To the surprise of the onlookers, they hadn’t expected such a seemingly weak youth to be capable of executing such a terrifying attack.

Boom!

The Force Measuring Stone emitted light, five stars lit up quickly, the fifth star shining a bright red.

Disappointment filled the crowd.

Even Jiang Feng had outperformed him.

But then, considering Lin Xuan’s Cultivation, they felt relieved.

Having such a result was already quite impressive.

The young man in white felt somewhat disappointed and no longer paid attention to Lin Xuan.

Jiang Feng even sneered continuously, “He really is trash, no, worse than trash!”

However, Dongfang Xiong revealed a strange expression.

This level of strength was not what he knew Lin Xuan to possess.

Lin Xuan appeared indifferent.

He indeed hadn’t used all his strength in this punch.

Yet, even so, according to his estimation, it should have been more than just fifty thousand jin of force.

“Could there really be a problem with this Force Measuring Stone?” Lin Xuan frowned.

“Hmph, who says six stars must equal sixty thousand jin of force?” Lord of Wine scoffed.

“Eh—” Lin Xuan was taken aback, “Could it be…”

With the reminder from Lord of Wine, Lin Xuan suddenly thought of a possibility.

He looked towards the short old man.

The old man’s body quivered slightly, looking very frightened, but his eyes revealed no fear.

“Something’s fishy,” Lin Xuan stroked his chin.

“Hehe, finally, it’s my turn!” Dongfang Xiong jumped out eagerly.

At this moment, all eyes turned towards Dongfang Xiong, as he was their last hope.

“Old thing, you better pray he can hit six stars, or you are as good as dead!” Jiang Feng looked towards the short old man with a ferocious expression.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely hit six stars,” Dongfang Xiong said with a toothy grin.

Standing before the black stone, his towering figure erupted with sounds akin to popping beans.

The next moment, his entire demeanor changed.

His eyes became sharp and decisive, like a Fierce Beast awakening from a deep sleep.

The originally simple smile was replaced by a hint of cold sternness.

His right fist rose slightly, and the muscles on it bulged like coiling dragons.

With a low shout from Dongfang Xiong, his right fist thundered out.

The air exploded, emitting a roaring sound, as though a real mountain had dropped to the ground.

The surrounding wind raged, making it hard for everyone to keep their eyes open.

Boom!

The Force Measuring Stone made a low sound, the entire stele trembling.

In the astonished gazes of the crowd, the stars above lit up rapidly.

One, two, three, the fifth star quickly lit up, turning from bright red to purple, and finally to black.

After the black, the sixth star suddenly lit up.

The dazzling red, like a rising sun, illuminated everything around it.

“It lit up, it really lit up!”

“The sixth star really lit up!” The surroundings erupted in shocked exclamations.

Jiang Feng’s face turned dark, and the two Jiang Family Disciples beside him were also uneasy, wishing they could leave this place immediately.

Dongfang Xiong had hit six stars, which meant the Force Measuring Stone had no issues.

The problem then was with Jiang Feng’s strength.

Thinking about how a disciple of the mighty Jiang Family, a Soul Fusion Realm Expert, could not even surpass an unknown youngster, Jiang Feng felt an urge to vomit blood.

Beside him, the young man in the white robe was also in continuous astonishment.

He carefully observed Dongfang Xiong, his eyes brimming with war intent.

“What terrifying strength, this guy’s strong suit must be in his power,” thought the young man in white.

“May I know how to address you, sir?

I am Wen Zi Xu,” asked the white-robed youth.

“Hehe, I am Dongfang Xiong, this is Brother Lin, Lin Xuan,” Dongfang Xiong scratched his head and chuckled naively.

However, everyone seemed to ignore Lin Xuan, as many stared at Dongfang Xiong as if they were looking at a peculiar creature.

“No, I must have made a mistake just now.

This time I will definitely succeed!” Jiang Feng said through clenched teeth nearby.

As a disciple of the Jiang Family, he could not lose to a person of unknown origin.

Once again tossing out a bag of Spirit Stones, Jiang Feng approached the Force Measuring Stone.

A blue light rose from his body, enigmatic and deep like the ocean.

The surrounding Spiritual Energy surged wildly, forming a terrifying blue fist shadow behind him, radiating an aura of dread.

“Break for me!” Jiang Feng bellowed, enveloping his fist in blue Spiritual Energy and striking fiercely.

The blue fist shadow behind him also followed his movement, rapidly hitting the Force Measuring Stone.

Boom!

An explosive sound filled the air, reminiscent of boulders shattering, boiling the atmosphere.

Everyone looked again, wondering whether Jiang Feng, exerting his full strength this time, could light up the sixth star.

But they were disappointed.

The fifth star turned from purple to black, like ink jade, but the sixth star still did not light up.

“Impossible!

This can’t be happening!”

“Why didn’t it succeed?” Panic emerged in Jiang Feng’s eyes; he had given it his all.

Not only had he utilized all of his Spiritual Power, but he had also drawn upon the surrounding Spiritual Energy.

He was absolutely confident in this punch.

And surely, this force was well above seventy thousand jin!

Yet, why did the sixth star still fail to light up?

Beside him, Lin Xuan frowned, his face showing contemplation.

Relying on his exceptional Soul Power, he naturally sensed the power of that punch.

According to his estimation, although it was not as strong as Dongfang Xiong’s, it should still be capable of lighting up the sixth star.

“Damn it, what level of strength is required for this sixth star?” Lin Xuan cursed inwardly.

“If I’m not mistaken, the minimum requirement for the sixth star should be a force of one hundred thousand jin,” Lord of Wine transmitted his voice.

“One hundred thousand jin?” Lin Xuan nearly jumped; that was terrifying!

Such strength was very close to that of a Spirit Transformation Realm expert.

No wonder so many had failed to reach the sixth star.

“Dammit, it actually requires a force of one hundred thousand jin!”

He then thought that Dongfang Xiong could actually produce a force of one hundred thousand jin; this guy was definitely not normal.

“Hmph, what do you know?

This Force Measuring Stone was something used within sects in ancient times to test disciples.”

“Six stars are just a passing grade, nothing to fuss about!” Lord of Wine said dismissively.

Lin Xuan’s eyes widened.

Just how monstrous were the martial artists of ancient times?

Though he had never seen them, just from Lord of Wine’s description, he knew those people were anything but simple.

“I wonder if I could light up the sixth star after using Silver Thunder Body?” Lin Xuan was itching to try.

For one thing, he wanted to test his true strength, and for another, he wanted to prove to Lord of Wine that he was not inferior to anyone.

Even against those ancient martial artists, he would not admit defeat!

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan tossed out a bag of Spirit Stones, preparing to test himself once more.
