Martial Universe: Starting with Lin Langtian, who crippled Lin Dong's father.

Chapter 16 Breakthrough, Spirit Talisman Master!

"The second one."

"The third one."

"The fourth one..."

As the fourth talisman materialized, Lin Langtian's heart grew increasingly tense.

The appearance of the fourth talisman indicates that one's strength has reached the level of a four-seal talisman master. If one can advance further, one will become a spirit talisman master who can rival those at the third realm of creation...

At this moment, within the Niwan Palace, large fragments of spirit flew everywhere, causing waves of spiritual fluctuations. Then, under the suppression of the four talismans, they were pulled together by the light and condensed into one place.

As time went by, the fifth talisman slowly formed.

"Phew..." Seeing this, Lin Langtian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only by becoming a spirit talisman master could he possibly proceed with the next step of his plan.

However, this Tai Xuan Spirit Seal is indeed extraordinary. Although I possess a vast amount of spiritual power, other methods of condensing seals would probably not achieve such an effect.

A short while later, the fifth talisman took shape.

Opening his eyes, Lin Langtian felt refreshed all over. He let out a long roar, and at the same time, a powerful spiritual force surged out from his Niwan Palace, bursting outwards.

"boom!"

An invisible spiritual wave emanated from Lin Langtian and spread outwards. On the ground, the soil near the center was instantly torn up, and the ancient trees around it were also uprooted.

Intermediate Spirit Talisman Master!

Lin Langtian sensed the powerful spiritual energy within his Niwan Palace, then suddenly swung his fist. A giant fist formed from spiritual energy instantly materialized, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, and slammed towards the ground below.

"boom!"

The surrounding area, spanning dozens of miles, trembled upon colliding with the colossal spiritual fist.

The loud noise attracted Lin Bao, who was guarding the manor, but the others were nowhere to be seen, which seemed to be a deliberate arrangement by Lin Bao.

Seeing the mess around him, Lin Bao was a little surprised. Although he didn't know how Lin Langtian had done it, it was best that he himself was unharmed.

"Come on, practice with me!"

Lin Langtian was in a great mood. Even though he had been confident enough before, he was still inexplicably excited to have actually reached this point.

Lin Bao was somewhat puzzled, after all, the difference in strength between the two was too great. Lin Langtian had never approached him before. And looking at the mess around him, Lin Langtian, who usually had an indifferent expression no matter what happened, was actually a little... excited?

It's estimated that the young master has made a breakthrough.

Without giving it much thought, Lin Bao adopted a haughty posture: "Young Master, please!"

"Okay, then you'd better be careful."

Lin Langtian focused his mind, and the five talismans he had just stored in his Niwan Palace roared out, carrying a massive amount of spiritual power as they surged outward, forming countless sharp blades around him, which hovered in mid-air.

The indifference on Lin Bao's face slowly faded, his expression became blank, and a sense of absurdity gradually emerged.

"Young Master..."

"Watch out!" Lin Langtian raised his left hand and waved it lightly in Lin Bao's direction.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Countless mental blades flashed out instantly, rushing towards Lin Bao.

Lin Bao's face turned pale, and he hurriedly mobilized his Yuan Power, condensing it into a huge shield in front of him.

The Xuan Yan Shield was something Lin Kai had used before, but it was defeated by Lin Langtian, who had borrowed Elder Mu's strength.

Compared to the Xuan Yan Shield of that day, the one Lin Bao used today was noticeably heavier and more solid. Even the Xuanwu in the very center seemed to have been given a soul, with its eyes bloodshot and more lively.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In an instant, the mental blade collided with the Xuan Yan shield, a huge roar resounding from within, causing the surrounding land to shatter and fly with debris.

Sand and gravel filled the surroundings, and after several minutes, they slowly dissipated, revealing a huge, tattered shield.

Lin Langtian curiously examined the shield, which was nearly shattered by the mental blade. He had only made a casual strike, yet he had already forced Lin Bao, who was at the peak of the Shaping Realm, to this point. If he were at his peak, he should be able to rival Lin Bao, who was at the Qi Creation Realm.

"puff!"

The shield slowly dissipated, and the figure behind it gradually appeared. At this moment, Lin Bao was pale-faced, kneeling on one knee, and stood up unsteadily, his face full of astonishment.

"Young Master, you've advanced to the rank of Spirit Talisman Master?"

"Are you injured?" Lin Langtian didn't answer, but frowned.

Lin Langtian's strength had increased so much that he had no idea what his own strength was like, so he asked Lin Bao, the strongest person around him, to test his strength. However, he did not expect that Lin Bao could not even withstand a single move from him.

Besides, Lin Bao had been running around for him these past two days without a single complaint, diligently following him all the way, yet now he's been accidentally injured...

He darted to Lin Bao's side, checked on Lin Bao's physical condition, and breathed a sigh of relief after finding that he had only suffered minor injuries.

"Alright, you've had a hard time these past two days," Lin Langtian said in a rare gentle tone.

"It's not hard work at all. It's my good fortune to be able to follow Young Master!" Perhaps Lin Bao said this two days ago with some insincerity, but now he truly admires him.

After all, a spirit talisman master who is only seventeen years old is simply too terrifying...

This is no longer something the Great Yan Dynasty can tolerate; it will inevitably leap out of this small space and head to the wider Eastern Xuan Domain.
