"No problem, then let's have the test outside the hall. I still have things to do afterward, so the sooner we finish the test, the sooner I can read the Skyfire Three Mysterious Change."
Facing the other man's disdain, Lin Feng only gave a faint smile, then turned and walked slowly toward the hall's exit.
"Hmph, just putting on a show!"
Seeing that calm and indifferent expression, Wu Xin's face stiffened. With a flick of his sleeve, he sneered, "Today this old man wants to see how a peak Dou Zong like you can withstand ten moves from a Dou Zun!"
After speaking, he too walked toward the door.
Outside the grand hall stretched a broad volcanic stone square, vast and open. At a glance, the far edge was ringed by lush green forest, forming a circle that enclosed the hall.
Lin Feng stood calmly outside, while the surging Dou Qi within his body began to flow rapidly. Though his words toward Wu Xin were full of contempt, that didn't mean he would underestimate him. Against a Dou Zun expert, he still gave the situation full respect.
As Lin Feng and Wu Xin stepped out of the hall, Tang Zhen and Tang Huo'er followed with a crowd of Burning Flame Valley elders and disciples.
Meanwhile, disciples farther away, seeing the commotion at the hall entrance, gathered like a tide of red flames. In just moments, the area outside the hall was packed with a dense sea of crimson silhouettes.
After all, with such a display, no words were needed for everyone to know what was about to happen. Yet Lin Feng ignored the growing excitement around him. His eyes were fixed only on the white-haired, red-robed Wu Xin opposite him.
At this moment Wu Xin stood with hands clasped behind his back.
On his aged face played a confident smile.
After all, the gap between a Dou Zun and a Dou Zong was like heaven and earth. True, someone like Lin Feng, a high-tier alchemist, might have a few trump cards. But in Wu Xin's own hands were also the high-class Dou Techniques of Burning Flame Valley.
So he had never even considered the possibility of losing. Then Tang Zhen spoke again, "Friend Lin Feng, are you certain you want to endure ten moves from Elder Wu Xin in order to earn the chance to study the Skyfire Three Mysterious Change?"
"Wah!"
Hearing Tang Zhen's words, many Burning Flame Valley disciples who hadn't known the details let out a collective exclamation.
Countless incredulous gazes turned toward Lin Feng. They had witnessed his skill in alchemy before and knew how formidable he was. But to last ten moves against the Grand Elder? That was sheer arrogance.
Their Grand Elder was a genuine Two-Star Dou Zun. And the Valley possessed many high-level Dou Techniques. As their Grand Elder, he naturally commanded several of the strongest.
For Lin Feng, a mere Dou Zong, to challenge him—wasn't that asking for humiliation?
Lin Feng listened, then looked toward Wu Xin and said, "More talk is a waste of time. Let's begin."
"Boy, then you'd better be careful. This old man disdains sneaking an attack on a junior!"
Wu Xin's voice rumbled as he stepped lightly forward.
A torrent of scorching crimson Dou Qi suddenly surged from his body. Like a sky of burning clouds, the red Dou Qi covered the air above.
At that instant, Wu Xin's white hair streamed out, his red robe whipped fiercely, his presence shockingly overwhelming.
"Boom!"
He then thrust out a fist, and a violent ripple of space shot toward Lin Feng's position. Yet to the astonishment of the Burning Flame Valley disciples watching, that terrifying spatial ripple swept straight through the "Lin Feng" before their eyes—only for the figure to dissolve into nothing.
"Afterimage?"
Immediately, several of the stronger disciples reacted, exclaiming in surprise.
"Not bad speed, let's see how you dodge this!"
Seeing Lin Feng easily avoid his attack, Wu Xin narrowed his eyes and sneered. As soon as he finished speaking, flames suddenly coiled around both his palms.
Under the flickering firelight, his hands actually began to grow larger. From afar, they looked like a pair of giant fans.
"Pure Yang Soft Hand!"
With a sudden cold shout, that blazing red hand abruptly stretched out half a length. His wrist twisted and struck straight toward Lin Feng.
"Thousand Steel Body, manifest!"
Sensing the lightning-fast strike, Lin Feng's eyes hardened and he shouted. As his words fell, a burst of golden light erupted across his skin.
Lin Feng clenched his right fist, and a dazzling golden glow flared on his knuckles.
"Body-Refining Dou Technique?!"
The experts of Burning Flame Valley were all startled at the sudden transformation.
Such Body Refining Dou Techniques were indeed powerful. But they consumed immense resources and the training process was agonizing. Normally, very few would ever practice them.
None of them had expected that Lin Feng, a delicate-looking alchemist, would actually cultivate such a Dou Technique.
"Myriad Steel Shattering Body Fist!"
With a loud shout, Lin Feng stomped the ground. Amid flying shards of volcanic rock, his figure shot forward like a bolt.
"Boom!"
In the blink of an eye, golden and crimson light collided violently in midair. The thunderous roar echoed through the heavens and refused to fade.
In the low sky, the intertwined red-gold radiance still locked in a deadlock. Waves of Dou Qi burst out from the point of impact, sweeping outward at frightening speed.
Several Burning Flame Valley disciples with weaker strength were blown back hundreds of meters, unable to withstand the storm.
"After cultivating a Body Refining Dou Technique, that guy's physique is actually this strong. He can even stand against the Pure Yang Soft Hand of a Two-Star Dou Zun elder."
Tang Huo'er's voice trembled with disbelief as she stared at the distant clash of light.
After all, the Pure Yang Soft Hand was one of Burning Flame Valley's high-class Dou Techniques. Once mastered to perfection, it allowed the user to lengthen the arms at will—an uncanny advantage in battle.
"Lin Feng must have done more than just practice a Body Refining Dou Technique. He must have also used some rare heavenly treasures to refine his body. Otherwise, Body Refining alone could never reach such a level."
Tang Zhen, watching for a while beside her, finally spoke.
"Bang!"
Just then, a loud explosion echoed through the sky.
Lin Feng's figure was flung backward. When he landed, he skidded dozens of meters before barely regaining his footing.
"Seems my body may be strong, but against a Dou Zun expert, I'm still not quite enough."
Looking at Wu Xin, who had only taken a few steps back and showed no sign of disarray, Lin Feng thought to himself.
