Chapter 2158  Elder Hu's Advice And A Quick Gate

With the Dao Essence Crystal firmly stored away in the ring, and the Demonic Sentinel Dead, Lin Mu relaxed.

His immortal Qi calmed down, while the others approached him.

"That was impressive Daoist Mu Lin." Ziran spoke. "I didn't expect you to be able to track down the Dantian of the Demonic Sentinel." He added.

"What skill was that?" Lady Kang asked with interest. "Your aura was unlike what I've seen before." She added.

Lin Mu heard it and knew that they were talking about the Burning Heart Sutra.

"It's a skill I obtained a while ago. It amplifies my aura and allows me to sense similar volatile auras." Lin Mu replied. "It has a lot of side effects, so I don't use it, but it fit this situation." He explained.

"No wonder." Lady Kang nodded. They had felt the power of the skill from afar and knew that it must not be a normal one. "Did you have a breakthrough in terms of your swordsmanship?" Elder Hu asked which was a bit surprising to the group as he didn't usually speak.

"No." But Lin Mu denied it.

"Then what was that?" Min Ju asked. "Your aura… it turned sharp like a blade." She added.

"That was just my sword intent." Lin Mu replied. "I was simply using it at full potential." He revealed.

This was true, as Lin Mu had merely used the Severing Heart Sutra to speed up the process. Other than that he was simply using his Metal Elemental Immortal Qi and his Sword Internet to amplify the power of Ocean Raker.

"If you fully specialize in Swordsmanship, you might just become a Sword immortal." Elder Hu replied to Lin Mu. "But your focus is divided into too many things." He added.

"Thanks for the advice, Elder Hu." Lin Mu responded. "But I like being adaptable to various situations." He stated.

The elder didn't speak anymore after this, simply accepting his words as it is. After all, he wasn't in a position to teach Lin Mu, and neither did he have any authority to do that. The man simply felt like Lin Mu's potential was being wasted on other things.

But if he knew that Lin Mu had reached his current level with Sword intent in less than fifteen years, he would have been stunned. He would never be able to believe that someone could reach this level in that short of a time. Elder Hu knew many experts that were swordsmen and spent thousands of years in improving their swordsmanship. Only after that were they able to reach the state Lin Mu was in. He knew that Lin Mu was certainly younger than most of them, but didn't know how young.

As such, he thought that Lin Mu was talented with it and was wasting his talent in other things, when he should have focused on a single thing.

But he had no idea, this was merely one of the paths that Lin Mu learned. In fact, Sword Intent wasn't even his most powerful ability. There was the Boulder Collapsing Fist that was a fist technique, but it was something that couldn't have been used in this hall. The area was far too small, and the fallout from the move was simply too big. Lin Mu didn't dare to use it carelessly with the fear of hurting others in the process.

He knew the power of the move, and also knew that blocking it in that short time would not be possible for others.

So as to not cause any untoward incident, he chose to not use that. The same could be said for the upgraded form of the Boulder Collapsing Fist, the Mountain Collapsing Fist.

Lady Kang had witnessed its power first hand, and was awed by it. It was a move that could erase several square kilometers of lands, thus it was entirely out of question to use it here.

But one thing was sure, that either of those two moves would have been enough to damage the Demonic Sentinel, with the last one being capable of entirely eliminating it.

Then there was Meld, which could also inflict damage to the Demonic Sentinel by directly cutting off the space. The only reason Lin Mu hadn't used it was to make sure that he would be able to properly pin point the Dantian of the Statue first.

Since even his Spatial Perception was unable to sense the Dantian, he was afraid that using it wrongly might just cut the Demonic Sentinel in the wrong spot. If the flow of energy became haphazard, there was a chance that it might end up exploding.

And anything that could match a strong immortal would be quite dangerous when it exploded.

As such, Lin Mu held back on using it until he had fully pinpointed the Dantian.

~SHUA~

Just as they were talking about the Demonic Sentinel though, a changed happened. "Huh? The formations are lighting up." They noticed.

Several patterns appeared on the ground in the form of lines, that were extending towards the other end of the hall. This place had been a flat wall so far, and didn't seem like much. The Demonic Sentinel had also been slammed here several times, with plenty of damage being inflicted onto it from their battle.

But now, the lines had grown into this wall and activated a hidden formation.

~HUALA~

The lines joined together before an arch was created.

"It's a teleportation gate…" Lin Mu said, sensing the Spatial Fluctuations.

"A Teleportation Gate? Is this already the end?" Min Ju wondered.

Unlike the other trials, this one had been quite short. They had only been at this for four days or so, thus they didn't think that a teleportation gate would be presented to them this early.

After all, a teleportation gate only appeared when one reached the end of a trial.

Lin Mu tried to look into the void to see where the Teleportation Channel linked to, and found it to be rather close.
