Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Baptism
Lin Dong did not get angry at all; instead, he revealed an indifferent smile, knowing that the other party was envious and resentful, but it served them right, for who could blame them when their family’s Lin Zihua was so outstanding.
"It’s not necessary for Elder Shi to worry about this, this is a matter for our Lin Family. Even if Lin Zihua is unlucky, even the worst opportunity would still enhance his cultivation. Right now he is a Martial Master Third Layer, and after coming out, at the very least, he will be at the peak of Martial Master Third Layer. Elder Shi, you agree, right? By the way, how is it that your family’s Shi Gandang is still at the Fifth Layer? This pace is really quite slow, haha!!"
At the end, even Lin Dong couldn’t hold back his laughter and burst out into a hearty laugh, feeling that this was the most delightful day in many years.
Utterly exhilarating!
Hearing this, Elder Shi’s face turned ugly, his hatred was so intense that he gritted his teeth.
Indeed, even the worst opportunity could change Lin Zihua from Third Layer to the peak of Third Layer, but such poor chances were rare, as most of those who could enter the Seventh Layer were favored by the Heavenly Dao. Not to mention the highest level of baptism, which allowed the challenger to directly communicate with another star, but even getting the poorest opportunity was extremely rare.
Those with slightly worse luck would have some improvement in their cultivation, those with average luck could enhance their cultivation by a whole level, and those slightly more fortunate could have a star increase in grade. There were even rumors that those with astounding luck could communicate with an additional star.
Inside the Star Tower.
"So this is the Seventh Layer? I’ve heard that getting the qualification for the baptism still requires some effort."
Lin Feng swept his eyes around the Seventh Layer, which seemed to have become like the Second Layer, all enveloped in a thin mist, obscuring everything from sight.
"Young man, congratulations on obtaining the qualification for the baptism."
An ancient voice suddenly echoed from all around, this voice seemed to come from eternity, through time and space, filled with the vicissitudes of the years.
"Oh? The will left by an ancient god? Quite formidable indeed, to be so clear after such a long time."
Lin Feng was secretly astonished.
"Now, I will guide you to the altar, open your heart."
The ancient voice continued to spread, and Lin Feng did as instructed. Very soon, the mist in front of him quickly dissipated, and an altar appeared before him.
There was a floating crystal atop the altar.
Following the guidance of that residual will, Lin Feng arrived at the altar and placed his hand on the crystal. Instantly, a chill sensation passed through his body, causing Lin Feng to involuntarily tense his muscles.
"Now, begin, and accept the baptism of Star Power. What you will get depends entirely on your own fortune. Good luck."
The ancient voice uttered these words and then vanished without a trace.
"That’s it? Quite simple, really. I wonder what I will get."
Lin Feng looked forward with anticipation.
...
Boom!
At the same time, the entire valley seemed to experience an earthquake, and then a beam of light burst forth from within the Star Tower, shooting straight into the sky.
At this sight, all three Clan Elders from the three families were dumbfounded.
"Lin! Zi! Hua!"
Lin Dong was extremely excited; he had waited for this moment for far too long and finally saw his wish fulfilled.
This time, he wanted to see how Lin Zheng would respond, and how he would protect his precious son. Right, his precious son who was still wandering around on the First Layer.
Thinking of this, he scoffed coldly. As the prospective Family Head, with such an outstanding disciple and a granddaughter who possessed the Sixth Grade Star, who else within the entire Lin Family could compete with him for prestige and influence?
"Damn it! Damn it!!!"
The two Elders from the Lei Family and Shi Family, seeing their disciple who had barely managed to move from the Fifth Layer to the Sixth Layer, were screaming silently in their hearts.
"This Lin Zihua is so formidable!!!" The two Elders thought with extreme fear.
The entire three clans, he alone reached the Seventh Layer, leaving the other two far behind, of course, the one at the First Layer was never of their concern.
"We must immediately inform the Family Head; the Lin Family’s Lin Zihua must be eradicated, or else he may become an endless potential threat in the future!"
At this moment, both Elder Shi and Elder Lei of their respective families had the determination to kill. If Lin Zihua grew up, he would become an endless worry.
...
Inside the Star Tower.
Lin Feng felt a force from the universe entering his body directly, and he felt his strength increasing rapidly.
Martial Master, First Layer Peak.
Martial Master, Second Layer, Early Stage.
Martial Master, Second Layer, Middle Stage.
Martial Master, Second Layer, Late Stage.
Martial Master, Second Layer Peak.
Without any accidents, Lin Feng directly stepped into the peak of Martial Master Second Layer.
What Lin Feng didn’t notice, however, was that the Heavenly Grace Dragon Book had begun to flip through its pages wildly at this time.
At this moment, Lin Feng devoted his entire heart and soul into the universe, as though he was strolling in the vast starry galaxy, looking up to see the stars twinkling above, looking down to see the Nine Heavens Galaxy below, that kind of comfortable feeling made him incredibly relaxed.
Suddenly, the Heavenly Grace Dragon Book stopped flipping, and a dragon scale burst into light, which kept absorbing the power from the crystal.
Not knowing how much time had passed, an image appeared on that dragon scale, that was a... dragon.
Boom!
At this moment, the entire Star Tower shook violently.
Lin Feng was also awakened by this tremor, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the Heavenly Grace Dragon Book running out from the Storage Ring inexplicably.
He frowned: "Is the baptism over already? Just increased by one cultivation level?"
Lin Feng was extremely vexed, though this was not the worst outcome, he still harbored a sliver of hope for himself, at least let his Demon Dragon Star upgrade from Fifth Grade to Sixth Grade.
But unfortunately, it was very clear that everything had ended because the crystal had dimmed, this crystal, was called a Star Meteor.
All the power was transmitted through this Star Meteor, atop each Star Tower, there would be one, varying only in size and the power contained within.
Dims without light, that meant the baptism had ended, and it was time to leave the Star Tower.
"Whatever, it was just a shot in the dark, don’t ask for what the fate cannot grant, let things take their course, after all, it’s just a Basic Star Tower, the chances of a great opportunity weren’t high, if there’s no chance in a Basic one, in the future I can try the Intermediate, Advanced, or even the Top Level Star Towers."
Lin Feng shook his head, crushed the Waist Token, and was transported outside of the Star Tower.
The Sixth Layer inside.
Bang!
Lin Zihua, who was knocked flying by himself, wiped the corner of his mouth with resignation. Facing himself, he didn’t know how many times he had been knocked back, even with his temperament, impatience began to stir inside.
"Calm down! Calm down! Lin Zihua, you are definitely the first right now, you haven’t even stepped into the Seventh Layer, who else has the qualifications!!"
Lin Zihua comforted himself inwardly, but at that moment, the Star Tower began to shake violently, which made his expression change rapidly.
"How is that possible!"
This represented that someone had completed the baptism and the time had come to leave the Star Tower.
