Chapter 196 Surprise
Rumble!
Silver snakes danced in the sky, the wind howled wildly, and a thin figure stood in the sea of thunder with a huge black hole floating above its head.
After being persuaded by Mu Zi, Lin Dong endured the wind and thunder tribulation on the spot, with three tribulations superimposed on each other.
Compared with the original novel, Lin Dong is more adept at using the Devouring Ancestral Talisman. With this divine object of heaven and earth, the superimposed wind and thunder disasters cannot do anything to him.
It is worth mentioning that Mu Zi originally planned to take advantage of Lin Dong’s thunder tribulation to upgrade his own spiritual treasure.
However, the power of the thunder was insufficient. When it struck the Tianluo Umbrella, it was like tickling it and had no strengthening effect. Mu Zi had no choice but to give up.
With the current strength of the Tianluo Umbrella, even the ninth wind and thunder tribulation would have little effect. If he wanted to improve it again, he could only use Mu Zi's own wind and thunder tribulation.
"Ow!"
Lin Dong successfully survived the wind and thunder tribulation, and his spiritual body suddenly swelled. The refreshing feeling of being filled with power made him let out a long roar.
However, this scene made the audience below feel embarrassed.
"Brother is so awesome!"
Xiao Yan’s rough voice sounded, trying to save some face for Lin Dong, but it backfired, leaving Mu Zi and Xiao Diao even more speechless.
Lin Dong’s realm stabilized, and he leaped up and landed on the ground with a smile on his face.
Mu Zi felt the aura on him and nodded lightly. With Lin Dong's current strength, if he used that combination of defense again, he should be able to withstand a few of her punches.
The three Lin Dong brothers, who had killed many people in the core area before, had absorbed enough Nirvana Seals and upgraded them to the highest level of purple-gold.
There was still some time before Baichao Mountain opened, and the few people had nothing to do, so they just stayed where they were and enjoyed the quiet time.
Since entering the ancient battlefield, Lin Dong has been fighting fiercely with various enemies, with his heart always tense.
Now, Xiao Yan and Xiao Diao's strengths have been improved successively, and Lin Dong's wings have gradually grown stronger. In addition, he learned from Mu Zi that the geniuses of those dynasties who participated in the Hundred Dynasties War were only at the strongest of the Six Element Nirvana. Lin Dong felt relaxed.
Although Mu Zi was stronger and had been crushing her enemies all along, her training intensity over the past year was also very high and her mind was somewhat exhausted.
It was a rare moment of free time, so she took the opportunity to relax and chat with Lin Dong and the others.
After chatting for a while, Lin Dong turned the topic to business.
"Which super sect are you going to join?" he asked with some curiosity.
"Guess?" Mu Zi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, but did not answer directly.
Lin Dong also became interested and started analyzing it immediately.
He first ruled out the Honghuang Palace. Although Mu Zi's body was terrifyingly strong, Lin Dong knew that it was because she practiced a powerful body-refining martial art.
The body-building martial arts inherited from Honghuang Palace might not be as good as the one practiced by Mu Zi, so there is not much point in joining this sect.
Shen Zong and Fu Gu are both sects that cultivate spiritual power. The former focuses on using spiritual power to fight, while the latter tends to cultivate talents in formations and refining.
Needless to say, Mu Zi's spiritual talent was definitely the strongest that Lin Dong had ever seen. Shen Zong and Fu Gu seemed to be quite suitable for her.
But Lin Dong had a hunch that Mu Zi would not choose to join these two sects.
Next is the Sword Sect. Just by listening to the name, you can tell that it is a force that practices sword skills, which does not quite fit Mu Zi’s style.
Lin Dong understood Mu Zi and knew the violent tendencies hidden in her heart. She preferred to hit people with her fists rather than using swordsmanship, which was more satisfying.
Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but grimace. Having just been beaten up by Mu Zi, he had a deep understanding of this.
Wanguimen was not very suitable either and was ruled out by Lin Dong. The only ones left were Dao Sect, Yuan Sect and Jiutian Taiqing Palace.
Lin Dong couldn't guess it, so he just guessed it at random.
"Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace?"
Mu Zi raised her eyebrows, a little surprised. Lin Dong's intuition was quite accurate.
If she hadn't made the agreement with Qian Yuanzi, she might have chosen to join Jiutian Taiqing Palace.
But now, Lin Dong was destined to guess wrong.
Seeing Mu Zi shaking her head, Lin Dong was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Dao Zong?"
Being rejected again, Lin Dong couldn't help but frown. Could it be that Mu Zi was going to join Yuanmen?
Seeing Lin Dong’s conflicted look, Mu Zi no longer kept him in suspense and revealed the answer.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I will join the Qianhai Sect."
"Qianhai Sect?"
Lin Dong was confused for a moment. Could it be that there are actually nine of the eight super sects?
Seeing his puzzled look, Mu Zi explained, "Qianhai Sect is an ordinary super sect."
“An ordinary sect?” Lin Dong looked at Mu Zi who was calm and composed, his heart filled with surprise.
Since Mu Zi made this choice, she must have her reasons.
"Although Qianhai Sect does not have a chakra-turning realm master, its foundation is not inferior to the eight major sects, and their leader also promised me."
Mu Zi opened her mouth softly and expressed her thoughts.
"Haha, Lin Dong, I will be the young sect leader in the future!" Mu Zi patted Lin Dong on the shoulder and laughed heartily when she was happy.
Ling Qingzhu is the young palace master of Jiutian Taiqing Palace. Qingtan, that girl, will most likely inherit the Dark Palace in the future. Mu Zi joined Qianhai Sect and became a young sect master, which is also quite interesting.
Lin Dong looked at Mu Zi, his eyes full of envy. Why didn't he have such good luck to encounter such a good thing?
“Then, Young Sect Master, please take good care of me from now on!” Lin Dong looked at Mu Zi and said half-jokingly.
A hint of surprise flashed across Mu Zi's eyes. Lin Dong also wanted to join Qianhai Sect? What did he want to do?
Mu Zi looked at Lin Dong in surprise for a while, then shook her head at his expectant gaze.
"I suggest you go to Dao Zong."
"Why?" Lin Dong asked with some disappointment.
Mu Zi hesitated for a moment, as if considering his words, and then said, "Your situation is different from mine. Joining the eight super sects is a better choice."
"Among the eight major sects, the Dao Sect's environment is the most suitable for you, and..."
Mu Zi paused for a moment, her eyes falling on Lin Dong, with a deep look in them.
“If you go to Dao Sect, there will be a surprise!” Mu Zi’s tone was mysterious. She looked at Lin Dong with a meaningful smile on her face.
Although Lin Dong’s strength improved significantly after joining Dao Sect, this is not the key point.
More importantly, he will meet Ying Huanhuan in Dao Zong.
In the original novel, after Lin Dong joined Dao Zong, he only did three things:
Practice, fight, and date Ying Huanhuan.
Although this was not intentional on Lin Dong's part, it was a fact that he had been in Dao Sect for a year and had stolen the heart of the sect leader's precious daughter.
Although there were some conflicts between Lin Dong and Ying Huanhuan at the beginning, according to normal development, after the hero saved the beauty several times, the two would develop feelings for each other, and eventually they would get together.
Mu Zi is quite supportive of this.
As Lin Dong's friend, Mu Zi couldn't bear to see him remain single.
There's probably no hope between Lin Dong and Ling Qingzhu, but there should be no problem with Ying Huanhuan, right?
Moreover, Mu Zi was a member of Lin Huan’s party in her previous life!
In her opinion, Lin Dong and Ying Huanhuan are true love, and Mu Zi would absolutely support them being together.
"surprise?"
Mu Zi's words aroused Lin Dong's interest, "What's the surprise?"
Mu Zi smiled mysteriously and did not answer. It was not convenient to tell him about Ying Huanhuan's affairs, so he could just guess it himself!
Xiao Diao's eyes rolled around, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. After pondering for a moment, he guessed:
"It should be the Great Desolate Scripture."
"This is the most powerful martial art of Dao Sect. If you can obtain it, your strength will be greatly improved. It should be considered a pleasant surprise."
Lin Dong was a little surprised, "Is a martial arts book considered a surprise?"
Xiao Diao rolled his eyes at Lin Dong and then explained:
"Do you think that everyone can comprehend the Great Desolate Scripture? Dao Sect has been established for so many years, and only a few people have successfully comprehended the Great Desolate Scripture."
"The last person who comprehended the Great Desolate Scripture was the ruthless man who killed the Shangyuan Sect and exterminated the three elders a hundred years ago."
"Oh?"
Lin Dong was a little moved. How could it be so difficult to comprehend the Great Desolate Sutra? No one had succeeded in the past hundred years.
Seeing that they had misunderstood, Mu Zi did not correct them, but continued with the topic:
"The Great Desolate Scripture is very powerful. If you acquire this martial art, your strength will be greatly improved."
Mu Zi thought about it and decided that in order to make Lin Dong choose Dao Sect, she might as well make the Great Desolate Sutra sound more powerful.
She looked at Lin Dong, with the corners of her mouth raised in an imperceptible arc.
“Lin Dong, after practicing the Great Desolate Scripture, maybe you will surpass me!”
As soon as these words came out, Lin Dong's eyes lit up instantly. His gaze fell on Mu Zi, staring into her eyes closely, and asked excitedly: "Really?"
Being stared at with expectant eyes by Lin Dong, Mu Zi felt a little guilty. She turned her head to the side, slightly avoiding his sight.
"It's possible."
It is indeed possible, of course, provided that Mu Zi's strength does not improve any more.
"Okay, I'll go to Dao Zong!"
Lin Dong clenched his fists, his eyes flashing brightly. He looked at Mu Zi, his heart suddenly filled with heroic feelings.
Then, it will be my turn to protect you!
Lin Dong has a strong sense of self-esteem. As a man, how can he hide behind a woman?
Seeing Lin Dong made a decision, Mu Zi nodded with satisfaction.
"Don't worry, you won't regret going to Dao Sect."
After deciding on their sect, they chatted again.
It was a rare opportunity for Xiao Diao to relax, and he was in high spirits. He talked freely in front of several people and boasted about his glorious past.
"Hehe, let me tell you, when I was in the clan, I was a man who could get hundreds of people to respond to my calls!" Little Diao said proudly, with a proud light flashing in his eyes.
"Hmph, let's take Lin Dong for example. A fellow like him didn't even have the qualifications to be Master Diao's younger brother."
Lin Dong’s face darkened and he looked at Xiao Diao with a dangerous look.
After Xiao Yan transformed, he called Lin Dong "big brother", and Xiao Diao had to be the second in command.
This made him very unhappy. A dignified Heavenly Demon Marten was actually being suppressed by a young boy.
So whenever Xiao Diao gets the chance, he will talk about Lin Dong and emphasize his own peak strength, trying to regain his position as the big brother.
Seeing Lin Dong’s unhappy look, Xiao Diao chuckled.
"Boy, don't be unconvinced. I, Master Diao, have lived longer than you can. If you want me to call you big brother, forget it."
Lin Dong looked at the little mink opposite him, a playful smile appearing on his lips.
"You've lived for so many years, why are you still a single mink?"
There was a hint of teasing and ridicule in Lin Dong's words, which made Xiao Diao's face suddenly stiffen.
He said stubbornly, "Humph! Master Diao is a genius, how could he possibly be attracted to those guys?"
Lin Dong's gaze fell on Xiao Diao's face. He looked at his face that was more beautiful than a woman's, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
"Maybe it's because you're too beautiful and they're jealous, hahaha!"
When this matter was mentioned, Xiao Diao's expression suddenly became depressed. He just looks like this, what can he do!
Besides, this is obviously Junxiu!
Seeing Xiao Diao looking depressed, a smile appeared on Mu Zi's face.
She turned her head and looked at the somewhat depressed Xiao Yan. Suddenly, something moved her and she said, "Xiao Yan, do you still remember your sister?"
Xiao Yan raised his head, looked at Mu Zi in surprise, and shook his head blankly.
He didn't remember having any brothers or sisters. The ones who had been with him since he was a child were Lin Dong and his friends. He had never thought that he would have relatives.
Seeing Xiao Yan's confused expression, Mu Zi smiled gently and explained, "Your sister is in Mu Family Village. I will let you meet her when there is a chance."
A smile also appeared on Mu Zi's face. Emperor Yan and Xiao Yan were indeed siblings. It might be quite interesting to see the two tigers meet each other.
