Chapter 391: Body Felt Hollowed



The legendary phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky!

When the rune masters heard the result from Linghu Xiu, they all fell into stunned silence like they had just seen a ghost.

This is too unbelievable. I thought that Lin Xun would miserably fail the first level, destroy his reputation, and be humiliated by the Chu Family.

How could this be the result?

The atmosphere was deathly still and terrifyingly silent.

A smile froze on Chu Haidong’s lips. His eyes were wide with shocked disbelief, and his entire body had stiffened like a lightning had struck him.

The result indeed shocked him like a lightning bolt.

How...how could this be?

He roared like a beast in his heart, unable to accept the truth.

“This...this isn’t true, right?” Chu Yunkong cried out in a trembling voice, and his expression was morphing indefinitely like he was refusing to give up.

He was planning how to get revenge on Lin Xun but who would have thought that such a dramatic reversal would happen?

Linghu Xiu’s face instantly darkened, and he said in a voice full of displeasure, “How can the spectacle of Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky be fake? If you don’t agree with the result, why don’t you go onto the stage and take the assessment? I will immediately apologize to you if you can produce Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky!”

Chu Yunkong trembled and started to panic. He finally believed that everything was true!

The atmosphere grew increasingly deathly still in the hall, and everyone’s gazes turned strange as they looked at the clansmen of the Chu Clan.

They had been clamoring that Lin Xun would never pass the tests of the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate and humiliated the youth in many different ways. The spectacle of Golden Clouds Soar into the Sky was like a silent slap to their faces!

……

In the other hall, the atmosphere was just as strange.

The group of authority figures were utterly silent with different thoughts in their minds. But their faces were all red with embarrassment as they realized they had misjudged Lin Xun earlier. They had truly thought that he was too arrogant and was biting off more than he could chew.

They had even claimed that Lin Xun would destroy Mind Cleansing Peak because of his arrogance!

However—

Everything had been reversed!

The reversal was too earthshaking. Who would have imagined that Lin Xun, an initiate rune master, was able to produce the legendary phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky?

If they thought that Chu Haidong had achieved an amazing feat by creating a brand new record, the phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky was superior in every aspect!

“This…” someone suddenly said aloud, but he didn’t know what to say after that.

“Everyone has misjudged the kid. After living for so many years, I didn’t think I would be slapped in the face by a kid,” Yu Beidou laughed at himself.

“Yu Beidou, I can give you Chu Haidong but Lin Xun belongs to our Divine Workshop!” Cheng Jing said resolutely.

“You wish!”

Unexpectedly, Yu Beidou’s expression dramatically changed as he sprang up. “Why would I just give away such an extraordinary talent?”

“If that’s the case, then we’ll have to rely on our own means. But I can promise you that our Divine Workshop will pay any price to get Lin Xun!”

Cheng Jing’s face bore a determined look.

A quarrel again broke out between the two. The other big shots looked at each other in dismay and smiled bitterly.

Shen Tuo suddenly said aloud, “You two, our Qinglu Academy previously didn’t compete with you for Chu Haidong, but we will not let a remarkable talent like Lin Xun go.”

Everyone was stunned, envious, and jealous, but they couldn’t do anything.

They also wanted to recruit Lin Xun, but they knew that they didn’t stand a chance against the three great behemoths—the Rune Master Association, Divine Workshop and the Qinglu Academy!

How would they dare to intervene seeing that Yu Beidou, Cheng Jing and Shen Tuo were determined to recruit Lin Xun?

“Elders, this is just the first test. Aren’t you all too hasty?” Feng Qingyou couldn’t help but remind them.

Immediately, Yu Beidou, Cheng Jing and Shen Tuo exchanged looks with each other like they had been slapped awake. They had decided to wait and see.

Feng Qingyou felt strange. When she had passed the tests of the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate, she had also received the same treatment but it was nowhere near as intense.

……

“Haidong, what to do?” Chu Yunkong cried out in panic.

Chu Haidong drew a deep breath and uttered through gritted teeth. “It’s still early! It’s just the first level, what are you afraid of? No matter how good Lin Xun is, he can’t possibly pass all the tests!”

“Yes!” Chu Yunkong’s spirits were instantly lifted. “So what if he produced the phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar into the Sky? There are still eight tablets! He might still fail miserably, right?”

Having said that, Chu Haidong and Chu Yunkong both felt a little uncertain. After all, the phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky was too astonishing!

After the initial shock, the rune masters in the hall regained their composure and turned to the Dragon Gate Stage again.

Lin Xun was taking the test of the second tablet, unaware that his amazing performance had caused a huge storm outside of the Dragon Gate Stage.

The test in the second stone tablet was the same as the first, only that the rune vision was much more complicated and obscure.

However, that didn’t stop Lin Xun.

He sank into a state of isolation from the world. His body, mind and spirit were all intensely focused on the mysterious world of runes.

For him, the comprehension and control of rune patterns were a kind of enjoyment. He felt wonderful like a fish in water.

Compared to the first level, he effortlessly grasped and took control of all the rune visions in the second tablet and integrated them into a complicated rune array!

At the same time, a wave of golden light erupted from the second tablet under astonished gazes!

Dazzling golden clouds blanketed the second ancient stone tablet!

A shocked silence descended on the audience. At the first tablet, Lin Xun produced the phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the sky at around the ten minute mark.

However, it took Lin Xun less than half of that time to grasp the rune vision in the second stone tablet, which should have been significantly harder than the first!

Many people were utterly shaken and unable to calm themselves.

On the other hand, the faces of Chu Haidong, Chu Yunkong, and other members of the Chu Clan were so overcast that they resembled gloomy clouds in the sky.

In the other hall, the group of authority figures had already risen to their feet, and they couldn’t conceal the excitement on their faces.

It was another Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky!

They had experienced the legendary phenomenon once again!

It might have been a fluke the first time but it couldn’t be pure luck the second time!

However, they had shown their astonishment too soon.

As though a divine being had possessed Lin Xun, he successfully passed the tests in the stone tablets one after another, and each time it was quicker than the previous!

It was too abnormal!

In the past, any rune masters who participated in the rune grandmaster assessment found each level of the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate more difficult than the previous.

However, Lin Xun passed the tests faster as he progressed the levels. It was too unbelievable!

Of course, everyone was most astonished by the fact that Lin Xun produced the phenomenon Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky every single time!

There was no exception!

The rune masters in the hall were about to go crazy from the shock. Their hearts couldn’t take it anymore. Who would have imagined that Lin Xun had such terrifying mastery in the art of the runes?

He had not only created a miracle, but also created history!

The Rune Master Association headquarters would no doubt record Lin Xun’s achievement into the history books of the empire, and it would be passed down through the ages!

After all, there had never been a rune master with unbelievably astonishing rune skills at such a young age!

In the other hall, Yu Beidou, Cheng Jing, Shen Tuo and other authority figures were breathing rapidly, quivering, and were wild with excitement.

Too abnormal!

Lin Xun is a monster!

They were already frantically calculating how high of a price they should pay to recruit Lin Xun.

“He…”

Feng Qingyou’s pure and beautiful face brimmed with astonishment, and her bright eyes lit up. She no longer looked bored.

She was utterly shocked, or perhaps even frightened.

In the past, she had been acknowledged as the leading figure of the younger generation in the art of runes, and no one in the empire could be compared with her.

However, a young man more dazzling than her who had superior rune skills than she did had suddenly emerged.

……

The ninth stone tablet!

The stone tablet was known as the Heaven Barrier.

Before everyone recovered from the shock, Lin Xun had passed the assessment without any obstruction!

When they saw golden clouds and lights drown the ninth stone tablet like a tidal wave, all the rune masters in the hall couldn’t help but exclaim like a rumble of thunder!

He passed!

Lin Xun passed the tests of the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate in one attempt with unparalleled speed!

The most terrifying thing was that he had produced the spectacle of Golden Clouds Soar to the Sky on all nine tablets!

Everything felt like an unprecedented miracle happening before them.

No one dared to say that Lin Xun wasn’t a true rune grandmaster as they would draw endless mocking and contempt to themselves.

Thud!

Chu Haidong slumped in his chair; his eyes were lifeless, and his soul seemed to have left his body.

Lin Xun’s perfect and earthshaking assessment result felt like a giant hammer about to smash his heart!

Chu Haidong felt everything darken before him, and his body felt hollowed within.
