Cultivation Through Artifacts

"Huh?" feeling the slight change of atmosphere together with the continuous ripples in the air, several figures around the sect shifted their gaze toward a specific direction before all of their complexions changed drastically and like ghosts, began to vanish from their spots one by one.

"Sect Master! What is happening here?" exactly a second after that, those figures appeared around Senior Lin and Khal, their faces showing utter disbelief upon seeing the sight before them.

"What is the meaning of this, Disciple Allen?" one of the figures, who had an aura of a peak Limit Breaker and whose appearance was akin to someone in his seventies, asked the struggling guard in the distance with narrowed eyes.

"Elder Shiu!" the guard called Allen looked pale when he saw the sharp and piercing glare on his skin, but knowing the consequences if he does not reply fast he began to narrate the events in the past few minutes.

"You say what?!" Elder Shiu and all the rest of the experts present looked stupefied and looked at the young man\'s calm expression before Senior Lin with utter disbelief.

"There is no way! Are you sure what you have just told me is the truth?" Elder Shiu asked Allen with slightly raised brows to confirm his doubts, but Allan just simply showed an awkward smile and replied, "Elder Shiu, with the utmost respect, but even if I don\'t talk you can see that it is true. Also, why would I ever dare to lie about something like this?"

Indeed, when Elder Shiu and the rest heard Allen\'s response they all knew that whoever that young man was, he must be an exceptional talent to stand his ground against someone like Senior Lin.

One of the many figures that were present stepped closer to Elder Shiu and asked, "Elder Shiu... Should we help her?"

Elder Shiu glanced at the person on his side, who was, in fact, a beautiful woman in her forties with honey brown hair and curves that contoured her assets perfectly, and said calmly, "Let\'s just wait and see what will happen. Maybe the Sect Master is just testing him so we shouldn\'t interrupt her yet."

Everyone around Elder Shiu nodded with understanding and still stayed on guard to jump in any given moment if things got out of hand for some unknown reason.

Meanwhile, Khal and Senior Lin stood in front of each other with a nonchalant gaze, both of their Mind Enthralling Eyes clashing against each other wildly, fighting to decide which one is the strongest!

\'He has the same Talent as me? But how?\' Senior Lin felt a slight headache coming when she thought the boy in front of him had the same power as she did.

As it was basic knowledge, everyone understood that every human had different Talents and only just a few existed that were commonly appearing at different individuals, such as the Body Enhancing Physique or the ability to control different elements.

However, a mind-type Talent that possessed the power to control others at will as the Mind Enthralling Eyes did was simply so unique that there must be no second one in existence!

\'He must be using some kind of trick! I won\'t believe he has the same powers as I do!\' as Senior Lin thought those words, she began to push and circulate all her essence in her body, causing her power to grow in strength by several folds in an instant!

Khal seeing as he was pushed back and the mind sealing power was approaching him by the second just smiled coldly and said, "If you want to compete in quantity, then let\'s do it properly!"

Pushing all of his Body Essence in his body to the utmost limit, Khal felt as his body exploded with great power and watched as his Mind Enthralling Eyes grew at least ten times stronger than it originally was, crushing Senior Lin\'s as if it was nothing but a mere joke!

"Impossible! How does he have so much Body Essence?"? Senior Lin cried out loud with a pale face and used every bit of her remaining Body Essence to fight back the approaching attack, but alas, it was simply meaningless.

Right now, she was like a mortal standing before several hundreds of meters high tsunami, ready to be washed away and killed without the slightest chance to resist!

"Sect Master!!" all the Elders present looked deathly pale and were ready to use whatever means necessary to save her, but just as they wished, suddenly a mighty voice appeared in the air.

"Okay, that is enough already..."

BANG!

An incredibly heavy pressure fell on Khal\'s body the very next second, forcing him to fall onto his knees and lose his ability to operate his Talent properly, saving Senior Lin just in time!

\'What\'s with this ridiculous pressure?! It\'s almost like I am being pressed down by an entire mountain!\' Khal clenched his teeth to resist the pressure that wished to crush him from above, even trying to force himself back onto his feet, which luckily, slowly but surely was happening!

"Oh? You are quite the interesting one." the voice sounded once again but this time with a hint of piqued interest and in the next second the pressure on Khal\'s body was doubled!

"Urgh!"

Falling back onto his knees with an ugly face, Khal did everything he could to resist the power on him, but no matter if he wished to circulate his Essence in his body or use his Talents, none of them worked properly; it felt like the pressure on him not only weighed down on him but also had a special trait that barred him from using his powers!

Senior Lin and the Elders present sighed with relief upon seeing this sight, and couldn\'t help but raise their heads toward the sky and clasp their hands in respect.

"We thank the Ancestor for the assistance!"
