Chapter 164: Shaking Yan City, the Yan City Master Invites a Duel!
The man had always been keeping an eye on Lin Yan. After all, as the Lord of Yan City, he had a broad vision within the city. Nothing that happened in Yan City could escape his attention. However, he was a man obsessed with cultivation. In his daily life, aside from cultivating and training, he paid little attention to other matters. Naturally, he rarely got involved in the power struggles within Yan City.
But for a talented young man like Lin Yan, who had suddenly emerged, the Lord of Yan City had always been watching. Thus, when combining this incident with what was happening now, he immediately thought of Lin Yan.
"Mr. Lin Yan?"
"As far as I know, it seems he recently broke through the Great Circle of the Dan Yuan Realm."
"For an ordinary person, after breaking through the Great Circle of the Dan Yuan Realm, they would probably need to accumulate many years before having the possibility to break through to the Formation Realm."
"If the opportunity is insufficient, it is possible to be stuck in that realm for a lifetime. It's not impossible."
"But..."
"If it's Mr. Lin Yan, then perhaps it's different."
After analyzing, Zi Yue spoke to the Lord of Yan City:
"If it's Mr. Lin Yan, it's possible he can indeed make a rapid breakthrough."
"After all, he is far from an ordinary person!"
The Lord of Yan City nodded in agreement after hearing Zi Yue's analysis. He highly approved of her assessment. However, after listening to Zi Yue's words, he couldn't help but smile maliciously.
"Zi Yue, it seems you have a very high opinion of him."
"That's quite unusual."
"Normally, you don't even hold such high opinions of others."
"It would be good if you simply didn't look down on them."
"I remember you have always been somewhat arrogant."
Zi Yue felt a bit embarrassed upon hearing this and glared at the man disdainfully:
"Dad~"
"How can you speak so poorly of me?"
The man shook his head upon hearing this.
"I am speaking honestly."
As he said this, he smiled again at Zi Yue.
"And besides, doesn't this precisely prove how extraordinary he is?"
The man quickly stood up and walked out of the room. Zi Yue felt quite confused seeing this and asked:
"Dad, where are you going?"
The man didn't turn around and left a sentence behind:
"I am going to the Lin Mansion."
"I also want to see how amazing this guy who has even astonished my daughter is."
"Let's see how powerful he is!"
Meanwhile, elsewhere. Aside from the Lord of Yan City, there were more people heading towards the mountain behind the Lin residence due to the commotion. At this moment, besides the Lord of Yan City, Xia Wanjin, Xuan Su, Xia Zhilan, and others were also constantly heading towards the mountain behind the Lin residence.
But it wasn't that they had come purposely from the Yan City Mansion. Interestingly, they came to visit Lin Yan today. After all, the last time, when they went to the ancient tomb, Xia Wanjin and the others were attacked by several major forces. It was thanks to Lin Yan's intervention that they were able to escape. Therefore, as soon as they heard that Lin Yan had returned successfully, after handling some minor affairs within the Yan City Mansion, Xia Wanjin quickly organized everyone to bring gifts and visit Lin Yan.
They didn't expect to find Lin Yan in the midst of his training when they arrived. Originally, Lin Zhentian was about to call him. But Xia Wanjin and the others didn't want to disturb Lin Yan's training, so they thought of chatting for a while, leaving the gifts, and then leaving.
However, they didn't expect that suddenly there would be a great uproar in the mountain behind the Lin residence. Xia Wanjin, Xuan Su, Xia Zhilan, Lin Zhentian, and the others all hurried to the mountain behind the Lin residence. At this moment, everyone was showing a tense appearance as if facing a formidable enemy.
After all, the commotion came from the mountain behind the Lin residence. And since it caused such a ruckus, it was enough to indicate that those who came were not friendly! But considering the gratitude they had towards the Lin family, at this moment everyone moved forward without hesitation, prepared to help if necessary.
However, despite thinking much about it, they never imagined that the uproar was caused by Lin Yan. After everyone arrived at the place, they discovered that a young man was standing on a giant eagle in the air. He had black hair and wore simple clothes. But he couldn't hide the elegance he radiated. A gentle breeze blew. The young man's hair fluttered in the wind as he extended his finger, attracting countless shadows of fire around him. Soon, all the flames were absorbed into a deep blue flame in his hand.
After absorbing all the flames around him, he turned his gaze towards the crowd. But perhaps realizing he had caused a great ruckus, a slight expression of embarrassment could be seen on the young man's face.
"Haha, sorry, sorry."
"I never imagined it would be so exaggerated."
But at this moment, the crowd didn't have the mind to care about this. Initially, everyone gaped at the blue flame in Lin Yan's hand. Feeling the heat emanating from the flame, they couldn't help but show a trace of fear in their eyes. Then, everyone focused their attention on the giant eagle beneath Lin Yan's feet. One by one, everyone was stunned.
"Is that... energy modeled with elemental force?"
"Could it be that young Lin Yan has entered the Formation Realm?"
Xia Wanjin was the first to react, looking at Lin Yan with amazement on his face. Having stayed in the Great Circle of the Dan Yuan Realm for many years, entering the Formation Realm was something he had long desired. Naturally, he had some understanding of the abilities in that realm.
"Yes, I just entered."
Lin Yan responded calmly to Xia Wanjin.
"Hiss!"
Everyone gasped upon hearing this. Although they had suspicions when they saw the eagle, after seeing it in person, it still seemed too incredible to them. Lin Yan had indeed entered the Formation Realm!
Everyone felt increasingly surprised. Especially Xuan Su, Xia Wanjin, and the others. Remembering when they first met Lin Yan, his strength was not up to par at that time, barely being a cultivator in the small Dan Yuan Realm. They never expected that now he was so far ahead of them! He had even entered the extremely difficult Formation Realm!
Therefore, everyone's gazes became a bit complicated. But after an internal struggle, everyone showed a wry smile. Although it seemed incredible, it had always been like this with Lin Yan, hadn't it? Those miraculous things, when it came to him, seemed quite normal. He was truly a complete monster.
"Alright, let's not stand here. Let's go to the living room and have some tea."
"What are we doing standing here?"
Lin Yan changed the subject and smiled at the crowd. After that, he prepared to lead everyone to the living room for tea. The crowd naturally agreed and followed him. However, just as everyone reached the living room, outside the Lin house, a voice suddenly sounded.
"I heard that young Lin Yan has successfully entered the Formation Realm. The old Yao Lao is eager for a fight."
"Sorry for coming uninvited, I hope you can forgive me!"
"I hope to have a duel with young Lin."
This voice resounded strongly. Not only did it shake the entire Lin house. Even many forces within Yan City heard it clearly. The crowd couldn't help but be stunned upon hearing this.
"The Lord of the City?"
"Even the Lord of the City, with his great skill, is actively seeking a duel with Lin Yan?"
"Lin Yan is truly incredible!"
