Standing in the shadow of a huge mountain, Lin Feng activated the mangekye, carefully checking the surroundings. Kamui is an amazing ability, which, in his opinion, should not be shown to anyone. Now, at the third level of Ling Qi, his energy reserves had increased at least twice, allowing him to remain invulnerable for more than three seconds. At the final levels of this stage, the combat capabilities of the main character will jump up qualitatively, providing more space when using intangible.

After looking around the area, Lin Feng took advantage of the movement in space, appearing directly in the main room of the Patriarch's palace. Nan Gong Ling himself, sensing someone's presence in the hall, went out to meet the intruder. However, when he saw his disciple on the spot, he relaxed, stopping collecting pure Qi for defense or attack.

– I'm glad you came, Lin Feng. I just have a serious conversation with you about Wen Ren Yang, " the Head greeted him.

- Hello, Senior! I have important questions for you, and I hope you can answer them, " Lin Feng said without any ceremony. Nan Gong Ling was surprised that the young man ignored him, but as his gaze lingered on the pale and anxious face, he immediately realized that the young man had not come here for idle talk.

"I'll try," the Patriarch replied, raising an eyebrow in disbelief. Usually, his disciple is always calm and full of energy, but this time he appeared excessively tired and out of breath.

– Assuming that Yun Hai is attacked in the near future, what will you do?" Lin Feng took a deep breath and asked. He wanted to know what the Patriarch would do in such a case.

– You don't have to worry. Our sect is one of the top five! We have several Xuan Qi stage practitioners on our side! Nan Gong Ling spoke in a solemn tone. There was no doubt in his voice.

"What if that's not enough?" - nervously pacing from side to side, the guy continued to bend his line.

"Lin Feng, do you really think that Yun Hai will be attacked by powerful practitioners?" the Patriarch replied with a question. He wasn't worried about the safety of the sect, having full faith that no one would dare to go against such a powerful enemy.

- Intuition! The main character exclaimed firmly, saving the situation for himself.

Nan Gong Ling pondered, " Actually, I never ruled out such a development, but the Imperial Clan has always been on our side. Liu Kang Lang, a former student of Yun Hai, made a significant contribution to the country. Our sect is the weakest of the five, but it is under the protection of the best General Xue Yue! The Patriarch spoke with sincere pride. He still did not believe in his disciple's intuition, believing that only a madman would anger the Divine Arrow.

"Damn it! You're kidding me! Are all adults like this?! Although, come to think of it, I'm also kind of an adult... " Lin Feng cursed in his mind, grieving with hopelessness.

- But... - the guy made another attempt to persuade, but he was abruptly interrupted.

"No buts!" You should get some rest. It must have been a particularly difficult day for you. Come to me tomorrow, then we'll continue, " Nan Gong Ling relented at the end, putting everything aside for the next day.

"I understand, Master..." Lin Feng said in an exhausted tone. Releasing his mangekye, he teleported to his room through Kamui without any delay.

Only after falling on the bed, the main character realized that, becoming an Elite student, he can get a bigger room.

"What's the point? Why would I need an entire cottage in the sect if Yun Hai was destroyed in three days? Nonsense! Complete nonsense! " - Lin Feng plunged himself into apathy. He wanted to tear his hair out of helplessness. Continuing to burden himself with problems, he did not notice how he fell into a deep sleep, filled with an important dream.

*

On a glittering azure throne, a tall and pale young man lounged lazily, one pale leg dangling over the other. His long and white hair brushed the floor. There was no one around, only a serene space with billions of shining stars. Suddenly, amber fireflies appeared on the horizon of the void. They flew past the main figure, then began to gather into an unknown image.

Soon the image began to become clearer, eventually turning into a guy. The protagonist's mind cleared, allowing him to see the throne in front of him, where the mysterious Ootsutsuki sat. A thousand thoughts raced through his mind about his unexpected arrival here.

"What's the deal?" Why am I here again? Lin Feng asked in a dumbfounded voice. For the second time, he falls asleep and appears in this unusual place.

"I don't know," the unknown alien replied with a lazy sigh. The next moment, he opened his third eye with a Rinne Sharingan.

Merciless pain reverberated in the guy's head, preventing him from thinking clearly. Much to Lin Feng's delight, the mental torture ended after a few seconds. Ootsutsuki himself smiled nostalgically, brightening up right before his eyes.

– You disappoint me... " the unknown young man said in an aloof tone.

– What are you talking about?" Lin Feng asked in bewilderment.

"You're worried about some bugs." They are destined to die! Ootsutsuki exclaimed, showing emotion for the first time.

"Shut up!" Han Man, Jun Yun, Liu Fei, Po Jun, the Guardians, and the Patriarch are all wonderful people! Each of them is genuinely kind and fair inside! I am glad that I met them, and I will not tolerate insults in their direction! - he forgot about the fear of a dangerous practitioner, becoming a true rage to criticize the interlocutor.

"That's enough! the unknown man waved his pale hand. The waves of power spread apart, leaving huge cracks in the space. Under the huge pressure released, the main character had to immediately shut up and listen carefully to the guy on the throne.

"I understand you. Become strong enough to awaken the Rinnegan. Use the External Path and resurrect everyone! Ootsutsuki calmly offered a solution to the problem with his arms outstretched.

– Do I have to sacrifice myself?" Lin Feng asked with unprecedented determination in his voice. The Heavenly Life Samsara Technique is able to breathe new life into the bodies of the dead in return for the life of the user himself.

"No, you fool. You just need to break through to the Emperor stage and spend a huge amount of Qi. The eyes are part of your soul, they can't kill you – " he continued calmly, giving hope for a full restoration of the sect in the future.

– So in ten or twenty years, I'll be strong enough to revive all the dead, won't I?" The protagonist asked with ill-concealed hope. He was stifled by the fact that everyone but him would die. The rest will either die or be enslaved in the capital.

- That's right. Their souls will stay with me while you travel in search of power – " Ootsutsuki put the final point. Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.

He didn't have enough strength to help in the fight against the Xuan Qi cultivators. The head of Nan Gong Ling only continues to contradict, claiming the strength of Yun Hai, but our hero knows perfectly well that an entire army is rushing ahead. Knowing the future and not being able to fix it weighs heavily on Lin Feng, poisoning his resolve.

– Why are you helping me?" he asked a reasonable question, looking into eyes with a red pattern like ripples on water.

– My mission is to help you on your initial journey, " the powerful alien said in a dispassionate tone.

His hand swung calmly in the air, ripping apart the nearby stars. The explosions filled the space, destroying the entire atmosphere. Lin Feng was shaken from side to side, blurring his image. In the end, it simply disappeared from its place, scattering amber lights.

When Lin Feng woke up in the morning, he got out of bed and slowly stretched his body. His eyes glowed with determination, and his heart burned with readiness for the events to come. No doubt, only the way forward! He will go through life and death to become the god who will regenerate every good person!

Deciding to walk to the Black Wind Mountain, the main character dressed in the uniform of the Elite and left his room. After getting some fresh air, he went straight into the mountains to the wild beasts.

"We need to continue practicing the Sword of Nirvana. I'm very close to the second blow – fatal! " - thought the guy on the way.

"It's Lin Feng!" The disciple exclaimed joyfully to his friends when he saw the young man passing by.

"He really is!" I wonder who is stronger: Lin Feng or Wen Ren Yang? another guy from their group asked his companions.

"I think it's the second one." Rumor has it that he has a bunch of pills and skills to help him in battle. I haven't heard of Lin Feng having an influential patron who would give him resources, so my choice is obvious, " the third young disciple replied, rightly reflecting on the topic.

Lin Feng, listening to their discussions, shook his head with a slight smile on his face. Wen Ren Yang definitely has talent and will be able to break through to the Xuan Qi layer by the age of twenty, but such a result is still nothing compared to the real talents of the same region they live in.

Finally, when he reached the Black Wind Mountain, the guy put on his mask. Rushing into the air, he leaped across the sky using Geppo. Opening his wings behind his back, Lin Feng picked up speed, intending to find worthy opponents. A few minutes later, he came across a large spotted lynx, deftly cutting through the dense forest in search of prey. In the animal world, the strong literally eats the weak and becomes even stronger.

Sensing the danger, the wildcat's fur stood on end. She raised her head and looked up at the sky, following her intuition, and ran into a flying fist covered in energy.

The "Mountain Crushing Blow" instantly shattered the skull of the third-level Ling beast. The two-meter-long carcass fell limply to the ground. Without collecting the treasures from his body, Lin Feng continued to jump through the clouds.

"Great! The reception did not disappoint. People and animals of the same level as me will definitely not be saved if my fist hits them! It's a pity that I can't improve this technique in the near future" - the main character estimated the power available to him, looking for the next victims.

There were many weak beasts in Lin Feng's path, but he ignored them. These half an hour fairly exhausted the guy, but the guy stubbornly continued to search for a strong air enemy. Approaching a high mountain, a huge eagle flew out to meet him. The sharp beak shone with the Qi that filled it. The bird, without a warning cry, rushed at the boy with all its available speed.

"A merciless Eagle of the fourth level of the Lin degree.... It's time to reach the fatal sword!»

After releasing the world of darkness, Lin Feng lost all emotions, becoming an all-seeing person. Dark purple lines like veins spread across his face, and mangekye sharingan lit up in his fathomless black eyes. Watching the slow flight of the eagle, the young man pulled out the red sword and focused all his thoughts on executing the fatal attack.

The bird was fast, but Lin Feng with the Soru was even faster. Death Qi began to flow down the red sword, enveloping half of the steel. Turning into a streak of light, the main character evaded the beak without any problems, hitting the eagle's body with his weapon.

Watching the death energy slowly lose its power in space, Lin Feng found himself thinking that he had figured out how to gain true control over this attribute of Qi. The bird's carcass immediately fell to the ground, slowly beginning to rot.

"To achieve complete control over death, you need to put in your actions the full intention to kill. To kill. To kill. Kill" - the main character was mentally enlightened, slowly sinking down on a thick tree branch.

Gathering the Death Qi on the tip of the sword, he left a small damage on the trunk, carefully watching as the life slowly withered away. Lin Feng began to process all the incoming information, comprehending the death of the perennial plant. After removing the dark world, the guy regained his emotions, rejoicing at a new level in "Nirvana".

"Weng Ren Yang, you better not provoke me!" the main character sneered maliciously. The Giant, who was at the peak of the third level, does not have a chance in the battle with him.

After wandering around the neighborhood, the guy began to destroy the nearest animals, so he practiced killing attacks. By the evening, he had spared no effort to hone the fatal sword perfectly, taking the lives of others to perfection. Sitting on a thick branch, Lin Feng took off his mask, indulging in dreams. He understood that after destroying Yun Hai, he would have to take revenge and revive the sect. However, to begin with, he must become stronger, gaining unlimited influence along with his own army.

"It's time!" the main character exclaimed in his head, moving to the Patriarch.

"All right, Lin Feng, it's time for you and me to discuss the situation with Wen Ren Yang," the Head of the Department carefully watched the appearance of his disciple from the void, put down the book from his hands and went straight to the point.

– He's too arrogant and arrogant!" Lin Feng announced in an impassive and harsh voice. Nan Gong Ling was surprised by his changeable mood. Yesterday, the young man was all on his nerves, but today he has completely changed, becoming much calmer.

"All geniuses are like this," Patriarch Yun Hai replied, " I understand you, Wen Ren Yang is not the most pleasant person, but he has great potential.

– You want me to make peace with him?" Lin Feng asked, slowly taking small steps back.

"Exactly!

"No!" the guy exclaimed, expressing a complete refusal. Turning, he immediately ran to the exit, to the door, where, unfortunately, he ran into the old man. A thick vine grabbed the main character, lifting him into the air.

"Heh-heh-heh." Where are you running to, Lin Feng? Mo Kang Lang chuckled maliciously, controlling his spirit. - You can't avoid responsibility.

"Damn, it's a trap!" The guy swore, spreading waves of Qi. But no matter how hard Lin Feng tried, he could not escape from the scourge of the Xuan Qi practitioner.

– Look, we believe in your victory over Wen Ren Yang, however, the two of you should not clash at all. In the future, you will definitely become officials! The Head explained the situation as Mo Kang Lang slowly let go of the guy on the ground.

– I get it, but if he keeps provoking me, he's going to die, " the guy warned them, carefully brushing off his uniform.

- Eh. Thank you, Great Elder, you can be free – " Nan Gong Ling sighed, expressing his gratitude to the old man. Lin Feng also did not stay away, making a polite bow to the Elder.

When Mo Kang Lang disappeared through the large doors, the Patriarch took out a pouch from his bosom, which contained an unusual-looking stone.

– The thing in my hands is called the Na Stone. It contains a whole space within itself, where you can put any things – while the teacher held the Na Stone in his right hand, an ordinary sword suddenly appeared in his left. Another moment, and the weapon was gone.

- Wow, useful stuff, you can not say anything! Lin Feng replied, recalling the spatial rings that are found in absolutely all cultivation novels.

– When you become a Patriarch, then you'll inherit one!" Nan Gong Ling said, expecting to see the desire in his disciple's eyes. However, for the latter, such a thing is useless, because he has his own domain, where he can store everything that his heart desires.

"Ahem, ahem." Anyway, I wanted to give you the ten purity stones. They will help you in your practice, especially when you break through to the next level, " the Head continued, handing over the ten glowing small balls that appeared in his left hand.

- Thank you, teacher! Lin Feng bowed as he took the low-grade purity stones. These balls contain the Qi of heaven and earth and differ in quality.

Taking them in the palm of his hand, the main character immediately moved to his room. Sitting on the bed in the lotus position, he began to absorb the energy from the stones to replenish his reserves and expand his dantian. In Xue Yue, ordinary money is common only among the common people or among the poor and weak clans. Powerful families and practitioners use the purity stones as currency, however, the ten stones that Lin Feng has are not of much value to the cultivators of the capital. It was for this reason that he didn't worry and calmly cultivated, knowing that he would be able to obtain millions of such low-grade stones in the future.

The other two days before the second round of the exam, Lin Feng was improving by absorbing Qi. The guy approached the peak and was already one step away from the fourth level. All ten purity stones lost their luster, becoming ordinary cobblestones. Getting out of bed, he hurried to the Ravine to quickly meet his two friends. Today, something will happen that he is so afraid of, but the main character intends to face the danger face to face. After wandering through the desolate area, Lin Feng arrived at a huge gathering of students near the Arena of Life and Death.

The elite and ordinary elders were stationed at the very top of the Gorge, watching everyone from the rest area, which made a great impression on everyone. It wasn't usually used, but this time it was different. The core apprentice exam is more important than the elite exam.

"Hah. The stadiums of my past world are nothing compared to this, " Lin Feng admired as he searched for Han Man and Po Jun.

Finally, finding the tall silhouettes, he immediately headed towards them. He had long ago figured out what to do with his comrades on such an anxious day.

- Hi, guys! Lin Feng greeted them, distracting them from their conversation.

"Oh, friend, you've come just in time, all the heat is coming soon!" Han Man patted the boy's shoulder. Po Jun didn't say anything, just nodded in response.

"Look, I have something important to tell you. Let's go somewhere quiet.

The boys understood Lin Feng's serious intentions and nodded and walked away from the arena.

Han Man and Po Jun looked at each other as they walked into the deserted area, waiting for their next move.

- Sorry, friends, but it's necessary! Sharingan: Genjutsu! – the two bodies immediately lost consciousness, but before they could fall to the ground, they were swallowed up by the funnel. "If I didn't, they would both become slaves. Jing Yun is not in the sect right now, and Liu Fei will definitely not be touched, because she is Liu Kang Lang's daughter. With such resolute thoughts, Lin Feng walked deep into the Gorge where the crowd of people was.
