Chapter 3: Genius or Devil (3rd Watch)

"I don't touch it!" Lin Ling didn't hesitate for a moment, "The little turtle has sand in his eyes, are you immortals also in the sand? I obviously saw it, why did you let me try it again! They all say that you are living immortals, but you bully people like this, isn't it that you and the big turtle have joined forces to bully me and become his little turtle!"

The village boy pointed at the nose of the immortal and scolded them for being a turtle, and the villagers were all panicked! This little monster is really a scourge in the village, insulting the immortal, what a sin this is, this is to be punished by heaven!

"Cangchang!" a sword roared, as if it should echo the fear in the hearts of the villagers.

Among the three Cangji Sect disciples, the disciple called Zeng Wuliang had a seizure on the spot, "Kid of the mountains and fields, what kind of thing are you, who do you say is a turtle! Our Senior Uncle Zhou is kind enough to help you, don't toast and don't eat and drink!"

Zeng Wuliang drew his sword out, and the other two Cangji Sect disciples also had a look of indignation on their faces. It's just that Lin Ling's eyes didn't show any fear, but held his head high, looking like he had been wronged and wanted to fight with reason.

"Collect your sword. Zhou Zhong looked at Zeng Wuliang, and there was majesty in his words, which made the eighteen-year-old Zeng Wuliang immediately panic, and he hurriedly took two steps back and hid behind the other two disciples.

In the middle of the week, the deputy elder of the Precept Hall of the Cangji Sect was in charge of the precepts. Draw a sword against ordinary people, and the punishment is serious!

"Don't blame you. Zhou Zhong explained quietly, "Real gold is not afraid of fire, you can let Sun Hai die this heart and get back your grandmother's IOU." And although I did see that light just now, it was just that the light was incredible, and I just wanted to confirm again whether that light was the light I knew, or ...... Something else?"

The immortal said it very reasonably, and it was also very natural, which made it difficult to refuse.

But Lin Ling was very nervous, and the old gentleman in the broken temple said that after drinking the medicine, he could only touch the spirit test stone once, and again, he might be worried about his life.

Lin Ling guessed who made him the smartest person in the village since he was a child.

The old gentleman in the broken temple must have let himself drink the medicine before he had the ability to make the spirit stone shine, and after touching it once, the effect of the medicine disappeared.

If you touch it again, the spirit stone does not shine and deceive the immortals, won't you lose face in front of the whole village and seek death in front of the immortals?

"I won't touch it!" Lin Ling's expression was resolute.

"If you see it, you see it, why should I touch it again, so I just don't touch it!!"

It's his attitude, or his pride.

Even if you hide a lie, you have to tell it in a proper manner.

The atmosphere in the arena instantly froze, and I couldn't remember the last time someone contradicted him, was it fifty years, or sixty years ago?

So, he had no choice.

"Are you afraid?" said in the middle of the week, breaking through Lin Ling's psychological defense.

"No!" Lin Ling gritted his teeth.

"Come on, then!"

Zhou Zhong's sleeves waved suddenly, and Lin Ling's hand, as if out of his body, was forcibly pressed towards the spirit test stone.

On a September day, the small village surrounded by mountains does not look hot, but Lin Ling does not think so.

The moment his hand came into contact with the spirit test stone, a blazing heat scorched his palm like electricity.

Lin Ling felt that his palm was as painful as if it had been cut through the flesh layer by layer by countless sharp knives, but he couldn't remove his hand at all. The sound of pain, like a muffled thunder in his throat, kept blasting every pore on his body.

The temperature of the Spirit Test Stone continued to rise, and it made a buzzing and trembling sound.

This is a situation that the spirit test stone has never appeared, and after more than 100 years of practice in the middle of the week, it was found for the first time that the spirit test stone would firmly absorb a life form and make a strange trembling sound.

Lin Ling's mind was blank, more fear.

The old gentleman said that you must never touch it a second time, otherwise you will be worried about your life.

Lin Ling felt the heat in his hands, endured the pain like a knife cut all over his body, forced his tears, and the pain in his limbs reached the critical point of his collapse.

The next moment, the Spirit Test Stone fell from Lin Ling's hand without warning, and the crisp sound shook twice.

Then, the glory of the light rose from the ground and went straight to the sky!

The bright red light was like a red river descending from the nine heavens, although it was so small to heaven and earth, but its light was so dazzling and piercing, dyeing the entire mountain stream into bright red, like a streamer, and like a sword, shooting towards the direction of the distant Cangji Mountain.

On the main peak of Cangji Mountain, on the stargazing platform, a middle-aged man in dirty clothes is facing a pot of gourd cow drink.

A red light burst out of the clouds and broke into his afterglow.

"Poof!" the man squirted out a mouthful of old wine, coughed incessantly, stuffed the wine gourd into his arms haphazardly, and supported the guardrail of the observatory with both hands.

Red light and tomorrow, on the other side of the sea of clouds, are like sharp swords rising from the ground, cutting off the sun wheel.

"Tut-tut, fun, funny. The man looked at the light, put his hand into his arms, and was about to pull out the gourd as usual, when he stopped.

The man smiled self-deprecatingly, stopped drinking, but slowly fell asleep on the ground, closed his eyes, and hummed something in his mouth, which was a little ugly, but it was desolate when he listened carefully.

The man intended to sleep, but the people in Niukeng Village had no way to calm their minds, especially in the middle of the week.

If the purity and brightness of the light emitted by the spirit test stone are used to judge the tester's cultivation talent, then the cloth boy in front of him is undoubtedly the boy with the highest cultivation talent in the history he has tested.

But if this light has nothing to do with cultivation talent at all...... Zhou Zhong's eyes looked firmly at the young man in front of him, but the young man's face was wrapped in strips of cloth, and he couldn't see the young man's expression at all, and the thoughts in Zhou Zhong's mind turned a few times.

The spirit test stone, produced in the northern cold region, is not particularly precious, but it is also a very rare thing. Although there are a few in ordinary sects, it is difficult to find such high-grade spirit test stones, and it is only the super giants such as the Cangji Sect, the Giant Elephant Gate, and the Blue Sword Pavilion that they can destroy one like this, but they are not distressed at all. The most fundamental reason why the spirit test stone can test spiritual power is that there is a kind of demon insect called the spirit eating chrysalis parasitic in this spirit test stone, which lives by sucking the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and after digesting the spiritual power, it changes into its own light. However, their absorption of the spiritual power of heaven and earth was insignificant at all, and it was equivalent to the absorption of a lowly-level Qi cultivator in one inhalation, which was enough for a spirit eating chrysalis for a lifetime.

A vision like the Spirit Test Stone today was something he had never encountered in his life, but that didn't mean he had never heard of it. For example, the demon race! the despicable race far to the west!

Since the Spirit Eater Chrysalis is a demon insect, it is naturally controlled by the demon clan, and only they can do something like today to let the Spirit Eater Chrysalis explode and die like today!

Looking at Lin Ling's gaze again in the middle of the week, it became even more complicated.

Is it a peerless genius, or a demon demon?
