Chapter 20 - The momentum of the sword

As the seventh sound of the bells and drums rang out, the Yunhai Sect fell silent, only the pure sound lingering.

The crowd of the Yunhai Sect even felt a strange sensation, as if only the soul-shaking sound of the bells and drums remained between heaven and earth, like the momentum of the heavens and earth, enveloping the entire Yunhai Sect.

Nangong Ling stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the direction of the Tianqian Cliff, his robe swaying in the breeze. Around him, Mo Canglan, Mo Ye, Yunhai Sect disciples, even Chu Zhanpeng and Lin Qian, all looked in the same direction, giving people a dreamy feeling, as if on a pilgrimage!

In the solitary peak cave of the Tianqian Cliff, an old man in black robes stood there, looking up, his eyes carrying a hint of solemnity and solemnity.

The old man in black robes guarded the Tianqian Cliff. In the Yunhai Sect, few knew of his existence. However, even if the Sect Master Nangong Ling saw him, he had to respectfully call him Senior Kong.

He saw Lin Feng was only at the eighth level of the Qi Martial Realm, and his martial soul seemed very weak, so he let him enter the most difficult trial, the precipice of the bells and drums, hoping Lin Feng would know how to retreat. But Senior Kong had never expected that, with his weak cultivation base, Lin Feng would actually strike the sound of the precipice's bells and drums.

What shocked Senior Kong even more was that the sound of the bells and drums was one after another, distant and long-lasting, enveloping the heavens and earth of the Yunhai Sect. At this moment, the seventh sound had already been struck.

In the thousand-year history of the Yunhai Sect, no one had ever created such a miracle.

Stepping forward, Senior Kong entered the passage leading to the precipice of the bells and drums, stepping up the stairs of the passage, as if waiting for the eighth sound of the bells and drums to play.

At this moment, above the precipice, the sword energy still crisscrossed, but at this moment, the sword energy was no longer rampant. Instead, it moved with the long sword in Lin Feng's hand, wherever the long sword pointed, the sword energy was invincible.

"Momentum, the momentum of the sword, annihilates everything." Lin Feng's face carried a hint of a smile. These eight bells and drums were extremely peculiar. It seemed that only by breaking its momentum and attacking with a powerful force that surpassed the rebounding force of the bells and drums could the sound of the bells be struck. Just like at this moment, Lin Feng used the momentum of the sword to attack it with a force stronger than the rebounding force, thus striking it.

"Now that I have struck the seventh bell and drum, adding this last one, it is a perfect pass of the precipice of the bells and drums. It should be considered a perfect pass, right?" Lin Feng secretly thought to himself. To this day, he still thought this was the simplest trial of the Tianqian Cliff.

The long sword drew, and the killing intent of the sword energy merged into one, swallowing the cold light on the long sword.

"Ring for me." With a loud shout, the sword energy turned into a bright streamer, rushing towards the last bell and drum.

"Keng!" The eighth sound of the bells and drums vibrated above the Yunhai Sect, lasting for a long time. The martial soul behind Lin Feng disappeared, and he sat down directly, then lay on the ground.

"This should be enough to get the elixir to treat Han Man's injuries." Lin Feng, who had used all his strength, showed a faint smile on his face.

A rumbling sound came, and only saw the rock wall open, and a figure walked out from inside, surprisingly the old man in black robes.

Seeing the old man in black robes, Lin Feng stood up again and asked the old man, "Senior, have I passed the test? Can I get the elixir I need?"

Senior Kong, seeing the clean smile in Lin Feng's eyes, was first stunned, then a strange emotion appeared in his long-unmoved heart. Perhaps Lin Feng himself did not realize what he had done. He did not want this unprecedented honor, but only a elixir to treat his friend's injuries.

"Of course." Senior Kong nodded and took out a bottle of elixir from his body, threw it to Lin Feng, and said, "There are some healing pills in it, one is enough to treat your friend's injuries. As for the others, keep them for yourself. Perhaps you can use them in the future."

"Thank you, Senior." Lin Feng was somewhat surprised. According to Senior Kong's words, one elixir was enough to treat Han Man's injuries. The preciousness of this elixir was evident, but the other party gave him a bottle. Lin Feng did not doubt Senior Kong's words. With the other party's identity and strength, did he need to deceive him with such means?

"This is what you deserve for passing the test, but what you need to remember is not to mention to anyone that you have passed the test of the precipice of the bells and drums." Senior Kong reminded him. Lin Feng struck the eight bells and drums with his cultivation base at the eighth level of the Qi Martial Realm. Lin Feng's talent, which broke the history of the Yunhai Sect, was beyond doubt. Senior Kong did not want Lin Feng to be targeted by malicious people.

In the Xueyue Country, there seemed to be no shortage of major sects secretly hunting down outstanding disciples of other sects who were talented but had not yet grown up. Today, Lin Feng rang the bell for the rise of the Yunhai Sect, undoubtedly making him the first target for some sects to hunt down.

"Okay." Although Lin Feng did not understand why Senior Kong asked him to do this, he still nodded.

Senior Kong looked up and said to the distance, "Bei, take him back."

Lin Feng was stunned. This was a cliff, where only the mountain walls were visible, but Senior Kong obviously did not speak to the air.

"Okay, old ghost, you go back." A voice came from the mountain wall. Lin Feng looked up and saw a black dot leaping down from the sky. This black dot had a pair of huge wings, snow-white dreamy wings, which were surprisingly the wings of a crane.

"Martial artists can fly in the air and travel through the sky. I never thought there would be such a powerful person in the Yunhai Sect." Lin Feng was full of admiration, but then he felt a gust of wind sweep over, almost making him unable to stand steady.

The shadow of the crane descended on the precipice, causing Lin Feng's pupils to slightly constrict. It was him!

Lin Feng recognized the figure that appeared, who turned out to be the old man guarding the Star Pavilion. At this moment, the old man guarding the Star Pavilion no longer had a trace of decadence and laziness. His eyes flickered with a hint of the aura of a dragon and a snake.

"The people who guard the Star Pavilion are indeed extraordinary." At this moment, Lin Feng was even more certain of his guess.

"Kid, let me introduce you. This old ghost is one of the guardians of the Yunhai Sect. You can call him Senior Kong. As for me, I am also a guardian of the sect. You can call me Bei." The old man seemed to be in a particularly good mood. As guardians of the sect, their status within the sect was extraordinary. Even if the Sect Master met them, he had to be polite.

As guardians, their loyalty to the sect was far beyond comparison with others. In their hearts, only the sect mattered. Lin Feng striking the eight bells and drums, how could Bei not be happy?

"Bei, Senior Kong." Lin Feng smiled slightly at the two, the two top existences in the sect.

Senior Kong nodded silently, then turned and walked towards the rock wall. After a while, the rock wall opened, and Senior Kong's figure disappeared into the darkness.

"This old ghost stays in that broken cave every day, rarely speaks for a few days, and has become indifferent." Bei shook his head, grabbed Lin Feng, and said, "Let's go."

The shadow of the crane's martial soul reappeared, and a gust of wind cut through the air. Lin Feng felt his body soar into the air, looking at the void beneath his feet. Lin Feng had a dreamy feeling. In the previous life, who dared to imagine that he could soar in the sky without relying on flying objects?

However, on the Nine Heavens Continent, powerful forces could make martial artists disdain the heavens and the earth.
