Chapter 359 The Mystery of the Dao Sounds

After Lin Xun left the study, he came to the quiet training room on the third floor.

He sat down cross-legged on the only praying mat in the room, inhaled deeply, and circulated the blood and qi in his body.

When the qi and blood around his body were bubbling like lava, the Chaotic Void Ring in his hand started to change! It quivered, echoing mysteriously with Lin Xuns bloodline power.

Instantly, a mysterious but unfamiliar force enveloped Lin Xuns body and mind. Loud and clear noises reverberated in his mind like the morning bell. Scriptures seemed to be recited in his sea of knowledge.

However, Lin Xun couldnt understand it at all even though it was extremely clear. He couldnt understand it no matter how hard he tried, let alone comprehend its mystery. He felt like he was listening to a heavenly book.

Soon, he gave up on trying to understand and listened intently. He felt as though he was listening to a mysterious ancient language. He subconsciously fell into a meditative state and mobilized his cultivation. His mind felt light and clear as it entered a wandering state. In his mind, the clear noises continued to ring like a bell, echoing endlessly in his sea of knowledge.

Early next morning, he woke up from the meditation and right away he noticed that his body felt incredibly relaxed and as light as a feather.

Then, to his surprise, he found the surging aeth power in the sea of qi in his body had become distinctly purer.

That one night of cultivation was comparable to ten days of his usual cultivation!

Additionally, his qi was full of energy, his mind was clear, and his body felt refreshed like it had been cleansed.

He had only broken through to the Spirit Sea Stage yesterday, but his foundation felt very sturdy like it had already been tempered thousands of times!

Lin Xun found it incredibly hard to believe.

One night of cultivation not only tempered and improved my cultivation but also cleansed and refreshed my mind and spirit.

Such mysterious changes!

Soon, he realized that the amazing transformations were due to the Chaotic Void Ring. Although he couldnt understand the clear Dao sounds echoing endlessly in his mind, he knew its power had helped him achieve those amazing and unbelievable cultivation results. In other words, his drastic cultivation changes were closely linked to the Dao sounds.

It seems that the noise is the recitation of the Chaotic Void Dao Scripture! I dont understand it because my skills arent good enough, Lin Xun remarked thoughtfully.

The Chaotic Void Dao Scripture was a treasure passed down the Lin Family and only the direct bloodline descendants of the Lin Family could practice it. Hundreds of years ago, the Lin Family was only able to stand at the top with other top aristocratic families of the Forbidden City because of the Chaotic Void Dao Scripture!

Lin Xun was certain that he had only obtained very superficial benefits from the scripture. Once he could comprehend its true mysteries, he could truly understand its wonders!

Lin Xun inhaled deeply and made a decision. I will use the Chaotic Void Ring in future cultivation and, through the constant exposure to the Dao sounds, hopefully, one day I can pry into and comprehend its true mysteries.

This way of cultivation brings great benefits. At least, my cultivation is improving at a significantly faster speed than usual!

On the summit of Mind Cleansing Peak.

The mountain wind was chilly. and the clouds were fluttering in the air.

It was noon. Rays of golden sunlight pierced through the clouds and sprinkled a dazzling light upon the world.

Two figures were directly facing each other in the air!

Boom!

A blast of wind from a fist tore the clouds like a bolt of lightning. It was swift, direct, and contained terrifying power capable of destroying everything in its way.

Xiaokes shoulder-length black hair swayed in the air, making her stunning and delicate face look even more chilling and fierce. As her figure sped across the sky with swift and neat movements, her simple punch produced a mighty force that could shake the mountains.

Lin Xuns figure flickered back and forth opposite Xiaoke, looking a little discomposed.

If it werent for the incomparable power of the Nine Heavenshaking Destruction Art, Xiaoke would have long suppressed and defeated him.

Boom!

A blast of wind tore through several feet of the sky like a thunderbolt, speeding towards Lin Xun. Lin Xun had no choice but to face it head-on. His arms went numb, and his blood and qi tumbled frantically within his body. His body was propelled across the air.

Just as he had steadied his figure, Xiaoke charged toward him and launched another attack.

Stop! Lin Xun yelled.

Boom!

Xiaoke instantly withdrew the domineering blast of wind, and it vanished without a trace. Her control was extremely skillful.

Not bad. You have just broken through to the Spirit Sea Stage, but your strength is already comparable to intermediate Spirit Sea cultivators, Xiaoke calmly assessed Lin Xuns strength as she nimbly landed on the mountain summit.

In truth, her mind wasnt in the least bit calm. Although Lin Xun had been beaten badly and had to stop the battle, Xiaoke knew that his performance was already very remarkable and could even be described as demonic!

He only broke through yesterday, but he can withstand my attacks for so long. No one would believe this!

Xiaoke believed that his rapid progress must be related to the natural phenomena brought about by Lin Xuns breakthrough.

This kids foundation is too deep. I still remember that the Dipper Transformation Lake almost dried up when he attacked the Human Dipper Stage in Blood Kill Camp.

At that time, Xiaoke and Xu Sanqi both believed that Lin Xun had formed an aeth power reservoir stronger than first grade! Xiaoke was pleased to see Lin Xuns achievements and progress. This kid is a monster! How can he be judged by ordinary standards?

Instructor, you should talk about my shortcomings too. I feel a little uneasy when you suddenly praise me.

Lin Xun collapsed on his buttocks on the ground, gasping for breath. Although he was beaten badly, indescribable joy filled his heart. He felt as though he had returned to Blood Kill Camp. Back then, he often had one-on-one training with Xiaoke. Of course, he was always beaten.

Are you sure? Xiaoke calmly asked.

Of course. Lin Xun nodded.

He had challenged Xiaoke to a battle because he wanted to see how strong he had become after breaking through to the Spirit Sea Stage.

At the same time, he knew he had to quickly familiarize and adapt to his new Spirit Sea Stage powers.

After all, it was a completely different cultivation level, and his combat means had also changed completely. He was no longer constrained to the ground but could attack from the air and kill from a distance.

He had to learn and adapt.

After all, he had no experience in flying, let alone fighting in mid-air.

Xiaoke was at the peak of the Spirit Sea Stage and was very skilled in fighting as she was a Blood Kill Camp instructor, so Lin Xun had benefited hugely from receiving direct advice from her.

Xiaoke pondered for a moment and said, Okay, speaking of your shortcomings, there are quite a few, and they are all quite fatal.

Her voice was extremely clear and cold. First of all, your movements during evasion are extremely poor. Enemies could kill you instantly in the air if youre not quick enough.

Secondly, your control of your power is very bad. If you cant control your power precisely and skillfully, it will waste unnecessary energy, which can be fatal in a prolonged battle.

The complacent look faded from Lin Xuns face and he fell silent. It turns out that Im this bad in the eyes of a cultivation master like Instructor Xiaoke.

After thinking it over, Lin Xun had to admit that Xiaokes analysis of his flaws was dead on target. He couldnt deny it even if he wanted to.

Also, your use of the power of heaven and earth is too superficial. A true master can effortlessly draw upon the power of heaven and earth to kill the enemy.

Xiaoke continued, To sum up, you have the strength comparable to intermediate Spirit Sea cultivators, but your combat experience is very poor.

Lin Xun felt depressed after being criticized like that. He smiled wryly and asked, Instructor, am I really that bad?

Xiaoke retorted with another question, Didnt you want to hear about your shortcomings?

Lin Xun couldnt help but ask, Well then if you compare me to someone at the same cultivation stage, how is my strength?

Xiaoke said coldly, You already have power comparable to the intermediate Spirit Sea Stage, why are you comparing yourself to people at the same stage as you? I remember you werent such a loser.

Lin Xun smiled.

He understood. In Xiaokes view, few people in the initial Spirit Sea Stage would be able to defeat him!

He should focus on cultivators at the intermediate Spirit Sea Stage!

From that day on, Lin Xun practiced at night and trained with Xiaoke during the day. His life was peaceful and fulfilling. Although he was beaten up and felt very embarrassed in every training session, he could distinctly feel his control of the Spirit Sea Stage power improving tremendously!

His learning ability surprised even himself. He felt like he had been enlightened and had gained remarkable intelligence. Every problem he encountered was easily solved. He had never realized he had such terrifying learning and comprehension ability!

It suddenly dawned on Lin Xun that his changes were linked to him listening to the Chaotic Void Dao Scripture every night. The mysterious Dao sounds were silently changing everything about him.

Half a month passed by in the blink of an eye.

On that day, after Lin Xun's practice session with Xiaoke, he pondered over his mistakes in the battle but Xiaoke suddenly said aloud, We dont need to battle again. You have learned the combat strategies and skills that you should master. And now, you only need to practice them by yourself.

Lin Xun said in puzzlement, Thats it?

For the first time, Xiaoke lost her composure and snapped, What? Ive already passed down everything I know to you! Dont tell me you think Im not teaching you properly?

Lin Xun quickly shook his head and smiled. How would I dare?

Xiaoke snorted, turned around, and left. Her lonely-looking, slender figure quickly disappeared, and Lin Xun was left baffled. Whats wrong with Instructor Xiaoke?

He was unaware that Xiaoke was a little terrified by his unbelievable improvement after the two weeks of training.

She felt like he was a monster able to learn whatever she taught or instructed him. How would she not feel uneasy?

They were both cultivators but why was Lin Xuns comprehension ability so much better than hers?

He really is abnormal!
