Chapter 259: The Musical Images

To conquer the evil in his heart, he must have a better understanding and control of RFS than his opponents.

This was the most direct way that Lin Xun could think of after a long time.

Although it was easy to say in theory, how to make it a reality?

The martial practice was divided into Initiation, Nuance, Accuracy, and Mastery. Lin Xun’s control of RFS barely reached the level of Nuance. He was now trying to appreciate and understand the essence of Accuracy in RFS, so there was still a certain distance to Mastery.

On the contrary, the three rivals in the previous battles, whether they were the snake spirits, the demon spirits, or the strongman of the Unicon Clan

, displayed at least the power of Accuracy in RFS!

Under such circumstances, it was tough for Lin Xun to master the same level of RFS in a short period, let alone to reach the level of Mastery.

But at present, this was the only feasible way, otherwise… He could only wait for the stronger evil to take root in his heart and the destruction of his state of mind.

This was the most terrible thing. Once Lin failed to break through the challenge, he would not only completely lose the chance to enter the Heaven-accessing Place, but would also have to deal with the evil inside his heart, resulting in a severe influence on his cultivation.

In such circumstances, Lin Xun had to fight for it anyway.

Before long, fluctuations resounded on the platform for the fourth time. The battle was about to begin again. Lin Xun immediately withdrew random thoughts from his mind and focused, his heart burning with fighting intent.

Since it was a battle with his familiar RFS, in other words, this was undoubtedly the best learning opportunity to master it in the shortest time!

The power displayed by the opponents’ RFS might bring the most direct death blow to him every time, But at the same time, it also allowed him to experience the true mystery and power of RFS comprehensively!

If he could learn from their strengths to make up for his weaknesses, he might really have a chance to change the situation.

Lin Xun believed in this.

…

While Lin Xun fought to break through the third pass, the celebrations in Keystone Business were also in full swing. When the night came, the festivities were nearing the end.

But none of the distinguished guests here were impatient. On the contrary, as the end of the celebration drew near, they grew more and more expectant.

Because Liu Qingyan, a legendary artist practitioner, would perform as a finalist on the stage!

This was undoubtedly the most anticipated moment for all the distinguished guests.

In fact, in this celebration, Keystone Business had arranged various wonderful shows. For example, Liang Daqian, the heir of the Imperial Puppet Family, was invited to perform a puppet war play. Thousands of puppets in every size were manipulated by Liang Daqian to fight in a battle. It was akin to a real war. The battle horses were galloping everywhere, and the flames of war were rolling; he made people fascinated by his skills.

Another fantastic show was ‘All the Birds Worship the Phoenix’ performed by the Animal Family. The animal tamer relied on simple magic tricks to attract hundreds of different kinds of birds, dancing and singing on the platform. It also caused a series of sensations among the crowd.

In short, this celebration of high standards and grand activities was absolutely worthy of the first-class standard in the world. Even those who were in prominent positions felt that it was worthwhile.

Only Ruan Lingdu felt like eating flies in his heart. He felt needles on his back and felt uncomfortable all over as the celebration began. He wanted to eat Chu Feng, who was sitting in front of him as a distinguished guest, alive.

But he could only bear this idea in his mind. The occasion was so grand that he dared not make any mistakes.

It could be imagined how much indignation and anger Ruan Lingdu had accumulated in his heart.

And Chu Feng, from the beginning of the celebration, had enjoyed the show happily.

Especially when he found that Ruan Lingdu had been standing behind him like a wooden stake, Chu Feng felt even happier.

Nevertheless, when the performance of Liu Qingyan was announced on the stage, both the furious Ruan Lingdu and the jovial Chu Feng restrained their tempers, threw away all the miscellaneous thoughts, and wholly concentrated on the platform.

Liu Qingyan made them temporarily forget all the hatred.

What was more, in the hall that could include tens of thousands of people, all the guests stopped moving and talking and focused on the platform at the same time.

Liu Qingyan was coming out!

This was Liu Qingyan’s charm. This famous and legendary artistic practitioner had too many dazzling honors. Now, she was going to appear in front of them. Who would not be excited?

Even those sophisticated and dignified figures could not help showing curiosity at this moment. They wanted to know whether Liu Qingyan was worthy of her fame.

The atmosphere in the hall fell into complete silence at this moment, not even a peep could be heard.

Shortly afterward, on the platform made of white jade, a wisp of light rose in the air with illusory azure-colored clouds, and a stream of melodies resounded like the flows of the valley in this silent atmosphere.

The music was beautiful and ethereal like a song by a dancing crane, the whirring of the wind when bamboo trees swayed, the camel bells ringing in the desert, the string of waves in the blue sea…

In a trance, people seemed to have been brought into another world…

Smokey clouds scattered and the sun shined with the moon.

Thousands of old green cypresses were standing under the rainy sky. All the houses appeared grey in the mist.

Outside the door, the exotic flowers were blooming, and the green grass near the bridge was emitting fragrance. The rocky cliffs were protruding out, and the moss hanging on the walls was growing wet.

Every time a crane snapped, its voice flew resounded high in the sky. And every time a phoenix flew by, its five-colored feathers impressed all the clouds.

There were many precious animals such as white deer, black ape, golden lion, and the jade-green elephant.

The mysterious scenery was like a fairyland, which shocked all the dignitaries present. They couldn’t believe that this beautiful scene was produced by a piece of music.

Just listening to the music without Liu Qingyan’s appearance could shock people so much that all the distinguished guests present could not help but admire her skills.

When Liu Qingyan came out, there was an irrepressible glow of praise in the eyes of all the people present.

A slender figure stood on the white jade platform with gorgeous hazy clouds as background.

Liu Qingyan was dressed in a plain white dress and green cloth shoes, different from the men’s dressing Lin Xun had seen. Her dress didn’t have any decoration. She had long purple hair hanging down her back to her waist, bright eyes, delicate skin, and a charming face with a unique look. However, her temperamental was as cold as snow.

This was Liu Qingyan, a soul singer occupying the hearts of young people all over the world. She had a unique voice and was famous in the whole Empire.

“Liu Qingyan!”

“Liu Qingyan!”

“Liu Qingyan!”

In the hall, there was a sudden cry of excitement. Most of them were youngsters of wealthy families. They fully showed their enthusiasm and fanaticism on their faces and totally ignored their manners.

But no one scolded them. The VIPs, though did not say much, were shocked and deeply touched by this scene.

‘Those who enjoy great reputation generally have great skills.’ Once Liu Qingyan appeared, she was as brilliant as in the hearsays; her name was truly well-deserved.

After Liu Qingyan appeared, she did not utter a word. She swept the whole hall with her bright eyes and then retracted her gaze. No one noticed that she had paused imperceptibly when her eyes swept across the location of Chu Feng, and a glimmer of unexpectedness and loss flashed quickly through her eyes.

Immediately after, she spoke in a clear voice, “I’m honored to take part in Keystone Business’s Centennial Celebration. I will sing a new song today to express my congratulations.”

…

In the Secret Realm of Hundred Battles.

Kill!

When another sculpture produced by the Secret Realm came to life, Lin Xun chopped his saber down without hesitation.

Reaching for the Stars!

At this moment, Lin Xun, who was displaying an extraordinary vigor in his incomparably calm look, exerted all his strength in this blow.

Bang ~

With an earth-shaking crash, without exception, Lin Xun was killed on the spot once again.

But before long, he resurrected with the shadow of death in his mind.

This was the twenty-seventh failure. Each failure brought him endless pain and fear of death. The experience of repeatedly dying was more torturous than purgatory.

However, as the number of failures grew, Lin Xun gradually mastered some tricks of controlling the evil in his heart.

He found that although failure added one more fear of death that remained in his heart and continuously impacted his mind; as long as he operated the Meditating Magic and visualized the phases of the stars without thinking too much, he could suppress the evil spirits in his heart.

Of course, it was just suppression, not expulsion.

This only applied to a quarter of an hour of recuperation after his failure. Once the battle began, the Meditating Magic couldn’t provide more help at that time.

Even so, it gave Lin a chance to have a break.

And through these repeated deadly battles, Lin Xun realized many mysteries and true meanings behind RFS, which brought him some progress.

Lin Xun sat cross-legged and operated the Meditating Magic immediately. He visualized the incredible scenes of the sky and the stars so as to suppress the impacts of the rolling evils in his heart.

At this time, Lin Xun was in a strange state. He kept fighting, dying, then resurrecting, and running the Meditating Magic to suppress the evil spirits, all of this for the next deadly battle…

It was like a cycle of fighting. But the opponent in every battle would be different, and every opponent’s RFS would have totally different momentum and style.

Time flew. When Lin Xun reached the forty-seventh battle, he suddenly frowned.

His mind had accumulated too many shadows of death, and it had reached a limit. Once it lost the oppression of Meditating Magic, it would burst out like a volcano! He could hardly control himself!

Anyhow, Lin Xun had already speculated that he would encounter such a thing and even made sufficient preparations for it.

Without any hesitation, he spoke directly, “I give up this time. I give up my first opportunity to break through the pass!”
