Upon hearing that voice, Lin Fan's heart stirred slightly, but he did not show anything on his face.
Lin Dong scratched his head and said, "I don't want to clash with anyone, I just want to gain the qualification to comprehend the Great Desolation Scripture. Besides, my abilities are far inferior to Brother Lin's."
"Hehe, you're just too modest," Lin Fan chuckled upon hearing this.
Liu Bai chimed in, "Brother Lin Dong is indeed too modest and low-key. In the Martial Arts Hall, the strongest martial art under the Great Desolation Scripture was mastered by Brother Lin Dong in just five days, which caused quite a stir."
"It was just good luck," Lin Dong smiled, then changed the subject, "By the way, Brother Lin Fan hasn't been to the Martial Arts Hall yet, has he? If you want to go, I can show you the way."
"With Lin Fan's talent, he should be able to master the Desolate Force and the Desolate Demon Eye in a shorter time than I can."
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Then let's give it a try."
Immediately, Lin Dong led Lin Fan towards the Desolate Palace Martial Arts Hall.
Mo Ling, Liu Bai, and the others followed closely behind, their faces full of anticipation.
Upon hearing this, the other disciples of the Desolate Hall also rushed to the outside of the Martial Arts Hall out of curiosity, waiting expectantly.

The desolate palace was extremely vast, with dozens of towering peaks piercing the clouds, shrouded in mist like a fairyland.
On those mountain peaks, the faint sounds of martial arts practice could be heard, and a vibrant energy filled the sky.
Guided by Lin Dong, the group landed on a giant peak near the center of the Desolate Palace about twenty minutes later.
At the summit, one can see a huge ancient stone tower, which is the Martial Arts Hall.
At this time, there were also many disciples of the Desolate Palace coming and going. After seeing Lin Fan and his group, these disciples all showed strange looks.
The brothers Lin Fan and Lin Dong are now celebrities in the Desolate Palace.
Lin Fan paid no attention to this and went straight to the gate of the stone tower.
At the gate, there stood an old man in a gray robe, holding a broom, gently sweeping the fallen leaves from the ground.
The old man's eyes were grayish-white and had no pupils, making him appear to be blind.
"Greetings, Elder Mo," Lin Dong said respectfully, bowing with clasped hands.
After a period of contact, Lin Dong learned that the old man's name was Gu Mo, and that his status in the Dao Sect was even higher than that of Chen Zhen and Wu Dao.
In addition, Gu Mo had given Lin Dong a lot of guidance in martial arts, so Lin Dong was very respectful to him.
Gu Mo nodded to Lin Dong, then his greyish-white eyes suddenly fixed on Lin Fan.
Lin Fan felt a subtle fluctuation passing through his body, and his heart skipped a beat. He clasped his hands and said, "Disciple Lin Fan greets Elder Mo."
Gu Mo nodded and said, "You can go in now."
Lin Fan clasped his hands in a salute, said nothing more, and turned to head into the ancient tower.
What appeared in Lin Fan's field of vision was a vast stone palace that seemed to stretch to the horizon. The palace was filled with an air of antiquity, and soft lights danced around it like elves.
This stone hall is extremely peculiar. There are no bookshelves inside, but instead there are stone tablets of varying sizes, with a faint light emanating from them.
Lin Dong explained, "These stone tablets record the martial arts techniques of the Desolate Palace."
"Okay, just take me to where the barren rock is," Lin Fan nodded slightly and said.
Lin Dong responded and then led Lin Fan deeper into the stone hall.
A dozen minutes later, they arrived in front of a huge gray boulder that was about a hundred feet tall.
The boulder is spherical in shape, dark gray in color, and appears to be covered with moss, with some fine cracks faintly visible.
"This is the Desolate Stone," Lin Dong said to Lin Fan, staring solemnly at the boulder.
"Okay, I'll give it a try," Lin Fan nodded gently, then walked directly onto the stone platform and stopped in front of a gray stone tablet.
Ancient characters are displayed on the stone tablet.
“Wild and untamed”.
At the top of the stone tablet, two ancient characters caught Lin Fan's eye. Lin Fan's expression remained unchanged as he gradually lowered his gaze, reading all the characters on the stone tablet.
The stone tablet records the cultivation method of "Wild Strength", and at the end it is engraved its true name, Wild Technique!
With his extraordinary comprehension, Lin Fan easily mastered the Desolate Technique and then strode straight toward the Desolate Stone.
Inside the Martial Arts Hall, many of the disciples of the Desolate Hall who were practicing martial arts stopped their training and turned their attention to Lin Fan.
Because of Lin Dong's example, no one tried to dissuade Lin Fan from getting too close to the barren stone this time.
An eerie silence fell over the entire platform, broken only by the sound of Lin Fan's footsteps. Everyone's heart pounded rapidly with each step.
Gu Mo, who was originally at the entrance of the ancient pagoda, had somehow moved behind the stone tablet, his gray-white eyes, devoid of pupils, fixed on Lin Fan's direction.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, Lin Fan approached the barren rock step by step, his skin seemingly becoming much drier.
Lin Fan calmly unleashed his Devouring Power, absorbing and resolving all the desolate energy that had invaded his body, while simultaneously practicing the cultivation method for desolate energy.
As Lin Fan absorbed and refined the desolate energy, he continued forward and soon arrived at the desolate stone, where he lightly touched it with his five fingers.
Instantly, the system's beautiful voice rang in his mind once again.
[Ding! You touched the barren stone and gained the purifying power of the Ancestral Stone! Note: It can purify evil spirits, demons, etc.!]
Without revealing his expression, Lin Fan touched the barren stone with his fingertips, and five black rays of light, formed from the power of devouring, shot directly into the barren stone and then quickly eroded its interior.
Buzz!
In an instant, a violent and untamed force suddenly erupted from the barren rock, attempting to repel the devouring power unleashed by Lin Fan.
"Suppress!"
With a slight thought, Lin Fan emitted a gentle white light from his five fingers, which penetrated into the barren stone, and the stone immediately lost its repulsive force.
Immediately, waves of extremely powerful and primordial energy rushed into Lin Fan's body at an astonishing speed, flowing down his arm and finally into his dantian.
Under this almost frenzied infusion of wild energy, the gray energy ball within the dantian became increasingly condensed, and finally trembled violently, condensing into a gray bead the size of a fist!
That gray bead is a Desolate Seed that can only be condensed when one cultivates the Desolate Technique to the third level!
"This guy is too freakish!"
"I originally thought Lin Dong was already monstrous enough, but I didn't expect Lin Fan to be even more formidable!"
"Gathering barren seeds in a quarter of an hour? Are you even letting anyone else live?"
"..."
The disciples in the Martial Arts Hall looked at each other, a sense of powerlessness spreading through their hearts, and they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
A look of surprise appeared on Gu Mo's aged face, followed by a light smile. "The Desolate Palace is quite lucky this time."
After condensing the Wild Seed, Lin Fan temporarily stopped cultivating and then stepped down from the stone platform.
"Your goal should also be those four great martial arts techniques. Come with me," Gu Mo said with a faint smile as he silently approached Lin Fan.
"Thank you for your trouble, Elder Mo," Lin Fan said, bowing slightly.
Next, under Gu Mo's guidance, Lin Fan arrived at the depths of the Martial Arts Hall, where a bowl-shaped light membrane hung down, and within that light membrane stood four stone tablets standing silently.
Gu Mo raised his hand, and a beam of light flashed, tearing a hole in the light membrane, allowing Lin Fan and Lin Dong to step inside.
As for the others, they could only wait outside.
Gu Mo said, "Lin Dong must have already told you about the four martial arts techniques. Which one do you intend to cultivate?"
"Desolate Demon Eye," Lin Fan said calmly, slowly uttering the four words.
Gu Mo calmly reminded him, "Practicing this martial art is risky. If something goes wrong, your eyes might end up like mine."
"I understand," Lin Fan nodded slightly, his gaze focusing on the eerie black eyes on the stone tablet, and he quickly gained a basic understanding of the Desolate Demon Eye.
Then, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and streams of spiritual energy emanated from his Niwan Palace, finally wrapping around the black eyes on the stone tablet.
"Eight-Seal Heavenly Talisman Master..." Gu Mo sensed Lin Fan's spiritual power cultivation and his expression changed slightly.
At Lin Fan's age, his Yuan Power and Spiritual Power, in either form or form, are enough to overwhelm the vast majority of his peers.
If you put the two together, they would be considered extremely excellent in the entire Eastern Xuan Region!
Under the watchful eyes of Gu Mo, Lin Dong, and a group of disciples from the Desolate Palace, Lin Fan remained seated calmly and motionless.
Gradually, a bloodstain appeared at the corner of each of his eyes.
Just as Gu Mo was about to intervene and help Lin Fan break free from his meditative state, the bleeding from the corner of his eye stopped, and a faint white light surrounded it, quickly returning it to normal.
However, an eerie gray aura gradually appeared on his face.
Seeing this, Gu Mo waited aside.
Meanwhile, news of Lin Fan's entry into the Martial Arts Hall quickly spread throughout the entire Desolate Hall, and even the Dao Sect...
Chapter 225 Reunion with Ying Huanhuan, Mission Out of the Sect! [Please Read On]
Two days passed in a flurry of excitement throughout the desolate palace.
During these two days, Lin Fan kept his eyes closed the whole time, and there was no more bleeding from the corners of his eyes, but a faint gray line appeared between his eyebrows.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a buzzing sound came from the stone tablet.
Then, everyone in the Martial Arts Hall saw a dazzling gray light suddenly shoot out from the black eye on the stone tablet.
The ray of light shone directly on Lin Fan's brow, connecting perfectly with the gray line between his brows.
"Time to apply eye makeup?"
Upon seeing this, Gu Mo immediately straightened up, his pupil-less eyes fixed on Lin Fan's brow.
Under his gaze, the gray line continued to wriggle, but showed no sign of cracking.
"This is happening again?" Gu Mo couldn't help but frown and mutter when he saw the condition between Lin Fan's brows.
Nearly a month ago, when Lin Dong was comprehending the Desolate Demon Eye, the situation was very similar to what it is now.
However, it was later confirmed that Lin Dong had indeed mastered the powerful martial art, the Desolate Demon Eye.
At this moment, the light connecting Lin Fan's brow began to gradually weaken, and after a moment, with a hiss, it completely dissipated.
