Chapter 154: Lin Sect, Eternal! Sect Master Lin Chen, Also the Dao Ancestor!
After explaining these four major techniques, Lin Chen began to demonstrate the fifth Lin Sect Ultimate Art to everyone below—the method of hidden weapons.
With a flip of his palm, the Godly Zhuge Crossbow from the Tang Sect's hidden weapons appeared in his hand. In the next moment, his figure arrived at the plaza below.
Seeing this, everyone turned their gaze toward Lin Chen, especially toward the Godly Zhuge Crossbow in his hand. Their instincts told them that this crossbow was far from ordinary.
Standing in the plaza, Lin Chen fixed his eyes on a pillar dozens of meters ahead. The bolts in his hand fired in rapid succession, all shooting toward the pillar.
The bolts, carrying immense penetrating force, directly pierced through the pillar. The power was so great that it rivaled a full-force strike from a powerful attack-type Soul Elder.
"The Lin Sect's Ultimate Art, the Hundred Solutions of Hidden Weapons, encompasses the crafting techniques and poisoning of hidden weapons and allows for the simultaneous control of multiple hidden weapons."
"The hidden weapon in my hand is called the Godly Zhuge Crossbow. It can fire multiple bolts consecutively, each with tremendous penetrating power. Its strength is no weaker than a full-strength strike from an attack-type Soul Elder."
"Most importantly, even ordinary people can use the Godly Zhuge Crossbow in my hand. Moreover, this hidden weapon can be mass-produced. What do you all think?"
As his words fell, Lin Chen looked at the group of soul masters before him with a faint, sinister smile.
With this Godly Zhuge Crossbow, ordinary soul masters would no longer stand high above others. A single crossbow could take their lives.
And besides the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, Lin Chen possessed even more powerful hidden weapons capable of threatening higher-level soul masters.
It can be said that once these hidden weapons spread across the Douluo Continent, even a Titled Douluo would face mortal danger.
The soul masters from various factions before Lin Chen, upon hearing his explanation, felt their backs drenched in cold sweat.
The appearance of the Godly Zhuge Crossbow brought the once lofty soul masters back down to the mortal realm. Especially after learning that it can be mass-produced, they were even more alarmed.
But the shock Lin Chen brought was not yet over. He withdrew the Godly Zhuge Crossbow and stood with his hands behind his back.
"This Godly Zhuge Crossbow is merely an ordinary hidden weapon within the Lin Sect's Hundred Solutions of Hidden Weapons."
"Within our Lin Sect's hidden weapons, there are still those capable of threatening high-level soul masters—some that can kill a Titled Douluo. Such hidden weapons still exist in our Lin Sect!"
Hearing this, all the soul masters present fell silent, awed by the terrifying nature of the Lin Sect's Ultimate Arts.
Such powerful techniques are nothing short of dimensional suppression on the Douluo Continent.
At this moment, an unrealistic thought emerged in their hearts: Could this Lin Sect, given enough time, replace the Spirit Hall and become the number one force on the continent?
As for the Upper Three Sects, their expectations for the Lin Sect had already surpassed those forces.
Though the Upper Three Sects were strong, they were far from the Lin Sect. In terms of top-tier combat power, Sect Master Lin Chen and the three peerless women were all top experts of the continent.
In terms of faction warfare, with the support of a Poison Douluo and the Lin Sect's hidden weapons, any conflict below the level of a Titled Douluo would shatter instantly.
Aside from the Spirit Hall, no other force was qualified to contend with the Lin Sect.
Seeing the soul masters questioning their reality, Lin Chen smiled faintly, then began to reassure them while offering benefits:
"I know you are soul masters from the various major forces of the continent, but please do not panic. The Lin Sect's purpose is to spread the Dao across the entire Douluo Continent and promote the overall development of the soul master world. We have no intention of conflict."
"The reason I invited you here today is to let you take the Lin Sect's Ultimate Arts back and study them thoroughly."
"Later, I will teach you the four great techniques of our Lin Sect: Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, Purple Demon Eye, and Mysterious Jade Hand, as well as the final Ultimate Art I have yet to explain—the Mysterious Heaven Skill."
Hearing Lin Chen's words, the tense hearts of those present relaxed slightly. Given Lin Chen's status, there was no need for him to lie to them.
In other words, the emergence of the Lin Sect would not greatly impact them. On the contrary, it would enhance their strength.
At the same time, they could not help but feel a trace of regret. Unfortunately, the most terrifying hidden weapon techniques of the Lin Sect could not be taken back.
However, gaining these five great Ultimate Arts from this trip was already highly satisfying, especially for smaller forces on the continent.
Unlike the Upper Three Sects or the Spirit Hall, which had their own exclusive techniques, being able to obtain the Lin Sect's Ultimate Arts for free was an enormous gain.
Soon, Lin Chen took out a meridian diagram from his storage soul tool ring.
To learn the Mysterious Heaven Skill, one must first understand the extraordinary meridians and the Ren and Du meridians of the human body.
"The Mysterious Heaven Skill is the highest inner cultivation method of the Lin Sect. It can perfectly merge with soul power. It has nine levels, and upon reaching the ninth level, it provides an endless flow of energy. It is the foundation of all other Lin Sect techniques."
"Moreover, I can guarantee that this Mysterious Heaven Skill is the most top-tier meditation method on the Douluo Continent. No other force's meditation method can compare to it."
"But its function does not end there. Before awakening a martial soul, cultivating it can increase one's innate soul power. This is its true strength!"
The miraculous and powerful nature of the Mysterious Heaven Skill once again shocked everyone. Now, all their concerns about the Lin Sect vanished.
Such a sect-defining treasure was willingly shared. It seemed the Lin Sect truly had no intention of involving itself in the continent's power struggles.
"The Lin Sect's actions benefit the continent and all living beings!"
"The Lin Sect shall endure forever! Sect Master Lin Chen is worthy of the title Dao Ancestor!"
At this moment, several representatives from the Spirit Hall, all red-clothed bishops at the Soul Douluo level, stepped forward to express their stance.
After the representatives of the Spirit Hall spoke, all soul masters under their banner in the plaza echoed in agreement.
Although the Lin Sect's teachings posed a slight threat to the Spirit Hall, as a hegemonic force that had stood on the Douluo Continent for tens of thousands of years, they had confidence that their rate of development would surpass that of all other forces.
Of course, except for the Lin Sect.
Following the Spirit Hall, the soul masters from other forces also began to echo:
"The Lin Sect shall endure forever! Sect Master Lin Chen is also the Dao Ancestor!
Seeing everyone's support, Lin Chen smiled in satisfaction. The representatives of the Spirit Hall were truly tactful, and the others knew how to show gratitude as well.
Fortunately, he had not invited the Clear Sky Sect and its four affiliated sects this time. Otherwise, it would have dampened the mood.
As for the Clear Sky Sect, Lin Chen had no favorable impression. Just a group of arrogant and domineering brutes.
"Very well, since that is the case, I will live up to the title of Dao Ancestor. Everyone, I will impart the Mysterious Heaven Skill to you without reservation."
With that, Lin Chen began explaining the knowledge of meridians to them one by one.
After they understood the meridian system, he imparted the Mysterious Heaven Skill. Once that was finished, he proceeded to teach Purple Demon Eye and the other four practical techniques.
As time passed, more and more soul masters within the Lin Sect began to master the Lin Sect's Ultimate Arts.
