Chapter 343: The Hall Examination
The sound of the system rang out, and Lin Yan was filled with joy. "Claim!"
[Ding!] [Congratulations, host, you have obtained the reward: Great Accelerated Cultivation Method!] [Reward Description: Significantly increases cultivation speed and also aids in learning. Single-use item.]
Although Lin Yan felt a bit disappointed hearing that the reward was a single-use item, he still thought it wasn't bad. Mainly because it was a one-time use, which made it a difficult choice for Lin Yan, since he now had the Great Celestial Creation Palm and the Demon Eye.
This confused Lin Yan a lot. After thinking hard and scratching his head, he finally decided to use it to cultivate the Demon Eye. After all, this was the martial technique of the Desolation Hall, and the blind elder had promised Lin Yan he would teach him more about the Demon Eye once he improved it.
So, after deciding what to cultivate, Lin Yan began to cultivate the Demon Eye immediately. He then entered a cultivation state.
As Lin Yan's forehead started to shine with a golden light, an eye also silently opened. And that eye gradually changed color from gray to light gold. However, the lines connected to this eye did not change to light gold. They remained black. Although they looked strange, Lin Yan didn't pay attention to them.
When the eye turned light gold, Lin Yan realized that his Demon Eye had become even stronger. But the cultivation wasn't over. After all, this cultivation method could continue until a certain martial technique reached its maximum level. So Lin Yan continued cultivating.
When Lin Yan started cultivating again, his forehead began to shine with a golden light, and Lin Yan clearly felt something wanting to come out of his forehead. Although it felt strange, Lin Yan didn't pay attention to it and concentrated fully on his cultivation.
After another period of cultivation, the Demon Eye was also cultivated by Lin Yan to its maximum level. It only took a few hours for Lin Yan to bring the Demon Eye to its maximum level. And that Great Accelerated Cultivation Method also turned into golden light and slowly faded away after Lin Yan exited the cultivation state.
Although it was a one-time use item, it could bring a martial technique to its maximum level. When Lin Yan came out of the cultivation state, he clearly felt there was something protruding from his forehead. Obviously, it was his Demon Eye.
Before, he had to activate it for this small bump to appear so quickly. But now, even without activating it, Lin Yan could have this small bump. This also indicated that in the future, Lin Yan would not need to accumulate energy to use this technique but could activate it instantly. This discovery filled Lin Yan with joy and expectations.
Being able to activate it instantly without accumulating energy! This was the most powerful martial technique of the Desolation Hall! Who would dare face Lin Yan in the upcoming hall examination after this news spread?
After completing his cultivation, Lin Yan went directly to do other things. The next day, early in the morning, Lin Yan woke up early and the first thing he did was look for the blind elder. When the blind elder saw Lin Yan, he noticed the bump on his forehead immediately.
The blind elder said, "It seems you've leveled up again in just a few days... You're really a cultivation fanatic..."
Lin Yan smiled and said, "It was an unexpected breakthrough, pure luck."
The blind elder also smiled and said, "Now that you've leveled up again, let me teach you something more. I suggest you learn how not to let this eye corrupt you. Come on, show me your Demon Eye now."
Hearing this, Lin Yan opened the Demon Eye and said, "Master, I'm already immune to the corruption of this eye, so I don't need to learn that."
This surprised the blind elder, who said, "Son, you can't joke about this. If you get corrupted, you could end up like me. You must think this through carefully."
Lin Yan shook his head and said, "Master, I'm sure I'm immune to its corruption, and my Demon Eye is already at its maximum level."
Hearing this, the blind elder was astonished. The maximum level! That couldn't be possible! It had taken him two years to understand how to avoid being corrupted, and that was after he lost his sight. But Lin Yan's speed was tens or even hundreds of times faster than his!
When he felt that familiar sensation, he finally believed Lin Yan's words. But this meant the blind elder no longer had anything to teach Lin Yan, so he could only scratch his head awkwardly. After all, Lin Yan had already learned everything he needed to learn, and there was nothing more to teach him.
So the blind elder said, "I didn't expect you to go this far so quickly. It looks like there will be a good show in the hall examination tomorrow. I trust you. After all, you are the second in the Desolation Hall to master the Demon Eye to its maximum level. Go and show everyone your true power tomorrow. After all, the other halls only think you have comprehended the Demon Eye, so show them your most powerful Demon Eye."
After nodding, Lin Yan left, thinking on the way: Was it worth cultivating this? After all, I already have everything the blind elder wanted to teach me. It's a pity I've only cultivated the Great Celestial Creation Palm. But Lin Yan was eager for the hall examination tomorrow. After all, it would be an opportunity to see the most powerful martial techniques from all the halls. If he could learn something from them, it would be beneficial for him.
When the Hall Master learned that Lin Yan had brought his Demon Eye to its maximum level, he was amazed. "It's a pity this boy didn't come to our Heaven Hall from the beginning. This talent is too good... How lucky the Desolation Hall is... It seems Lin Yan is destined to get first place in tomorrow's hall examination... Is the Desolation Hall about to rise again...?"
