Chapter 1034: Must Be Well Protected

The newly inducted disciples were stunned.

"Brother Lin of our sect is way too domineering, directly making a move against an elder of the Kunlun Divine Sect. How formidable must he be?"

"Heh, Brother Lin's abilities are immense. Didn't you see he didn't even use a divine ability? Just a single palm strike. Who else has such audacity?"

"Having such a senior brother is great. If we get bullied in the future, he'll surely stand up for us."

...

At the sect leader's seat.

The sect leader of the Kunlun Divine Sect looked extremely grim, but when he saw the disciple challenging the elder, a faint smile curled at the corner of his mouth. "Elder Wang, give him a minor lesson, but don't take his life."

Elder Wang held a distinguished position in the Kunlun Divine Sect; otherwise, he wouldn't have accompanied the sect leader to the Heaven and Earth Sect.

With the cultivation of a Golden Immortal, his power was extraordinary. When he struck, it shook heaven and earth. The might of a Golden Immortal caused the world to tremble. How could a mere Divine Son dare to challenge a Golden Immortal? It was nothing short of seeking death.

"Rest assured, Sect Leader. I know what I'm doing. Such an arrogant disciple must be properly disciplined; otherwise, if he goes out, he'll likely meet a grim fate." Elder Wang sneered, angered by the disciple's audacity to provoke him.

But since they were in the Heaven and Earth Sect, he wouldn't take his life, but the outcome wouldn't be easy—perhaps crippling his cultivation would suffice.

A palm descended from above, with no elaborate description, no divine ability or secret technique—just an ordinary palm strike.

Elder Wang's expression tightened. The Golden Immortal body instantly emitted a light barrier, impenetrable and unbreakable by anyone below the Golden Immortal level. In an instant, Elder Wang raised his hand, two fingers together, ready to shatter Lin Fan's laws the moment he landed, rendering his efforts futile.

Qingyangzi immediately stood up, tension evident in his eyes. It was too late to stop it now.

Lin Fan smiled lightly, his palm pressing down, directly colliding with the light barrier.

"Heh, overestimating yourself." Elder Wang sneered disdainfully, but suddenly his expression changed drastically.

"Lie down," Lin Fan said coldly, his five fingers grabbing directly onto the light barrier.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out. The light barrier seemed to have suffered a severe blow and instantly shattered.

Bang!

"How is this possible?" Elder Wang was greatly alarmed. The laws of the Golden Immortal within him erupted instantly, but he was horrified to find that the palm strike carried an overwhelming might that was impossible to resist.

Bang!

In that instant, everyone was stunned by the scene before them, as if they had seen a ghost, their faces filled with disbelief.

Lin Fan landed, hands clasped behind his back. "The elder of the Kunlun Divine Sect is nothing special. Quite disappointing, actually."

Uproar!

"What? Elder Wang is a Golden Immortal powerhouse!"

"How is this possible? How did this guy cultivate? Above True Immortal is Mystic Immortal, and above Mystic Immortal is Golden Immortal. Every Golden Immortal is a formidable expert. How can a Divine Son of the Heaven and Earth Sect be this strong?"

Ling Wuzun's body trembled slightly. He couldn't catch up, not in a lifetime.

Was this guy human or a monster? How could he be this strong? In three years, what had he experienced to become so freakish?

At this moment, the Divine Sons of the Heaven and Earth Sect felt the immense gap between themselves and him. Previously, they thought their status as Divine Sons matched their strength, but after witnessing Lin Fan's power, they realized that being Divine Sons was nothing short of a joke.

The Divine Sons of the Kunlun Divine Sect were dumbfounded, standing there woodenly. In their eyes, was this still human?

Now, no matter how Lin Fan humiliated them, they couldn't muster any anger. This was simply not on the same level; there was an insurmountable chasm between them.

Elder Wang was directly slapped to the ground by Lin Fan. A Golden Immortal powerhouse was nothing more than this. If not for the sect's sake, Lin Fan wouldn't have minded killing him—after all, it would yield some experience.

"How dare you..." The sect leader of the Kunlun Divine Sect could no longer contain himself. His body radiated a terrifying aura, as if he might strike at any moment to suppress Lin Fan.

Han Juntian smiled calmly and spoke directly, "What? You want to intervene in a matter between juniors?"

Han Juntian's voice instantly calmed the Kunlun Divine Sect leader, who then revealed a strange smile. "How could that be? Han, congratulations. For the Heaven and Earth Sect to have such a prodigy is truly a blessing. You must protect him well."

"Naturally, the Heaven and Earth Sect will protect him well. However, I, Han, will certainly give an explanation for this matter." Han Juntian smiled faintly, then looked at Lin Fan. "Lin Fan, apologize to Sect Leader Tai immediately."

Lin Fan smiled lightly and raised his head. "My apologies, Sect Leader Tai. I didn't expect your sect's elder to be so frail. Had I known earlier, I wouldn't have struck so hard."

"No matter. Incompetence leaves no room for blame." Tai Qiantian smiled insincerely, appearing magnanimous, but the fury within him could burn heaven and earth. If not for his status, he would have suppressed Lin Fan long ago.

"Sect Leader, if there's nothing else, this disciple will return to his peak." Lin Fan said.

"Alright." Han Juntian smiled, inwardly delighted. He had saved face.

Finding the place dull, Lin Fan led Qiu Zhanyu and the others flying back to his peak.

The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect watched the departing Senior Brother Lin, their eyes shining with admiration.

So domineering—truly a role model for their generation.

They didn't aspire to be exactly like Senior Brother Lin; even having a tenth of his ability would satisfy them.

Because of Lin Fan's interference, the atmosphere on site had completely turned one-sided.

The Heaven and Earth Sect was overjoyed, while the Kunlun Divine Sect looked as if they had swallowed flies, their expressions grim and resentment unabated.

Tai Qiantian, the sect leader of the Kunlun Divine Sect, rose. "Han, we take our leave. The Heaven and Earth Sect having such a prodigy is indeed cause for celebration."

"Not at all, not at all. I hope you'll look after us in the future, Tai." Han Juntian felt immensely refreshed; this was exactly the feeling he wanted.

At the same time, he felt fortunate that this kid had returned, or else they would have lost face badly this time.

After this incident, Han Juntian realized that the gap between the Divine Sons of the Heaven and Earth Sect and those of the Kunlun Divine Sect was too large. He needed to train them properly, or they wouldn't hold their ground in the future.

Tai Qiantian said nothing more. With a flick of his sleeve, he enveloped the disciples of the Kunlun Divine Sect and instantly vanished into the void, leaving the place.

As he left, Tai Qiantian glanced into the distance. This matter was far from over.

After the Kunlun Divine Sect departed, the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect erupted in cheers.

"Qingyangzi, come with me to the Sacred Demon Peak." Han Juntian said.

Qingyangzi also had many questions for Lin Fan, so he naturally agreed. "Yes."

Sacred Demon Peak.

Lin Fan returned to the familiar place.

"Big brother, is this your peak?" Qiu Zhanyu asked.

"Yes." Lin Fan nodded.

The main purpose of this return was to understand some things, then go out and roam around again.

After all, improving strength was crucial and couldn't be delayed.

Just then, raindrops began to fall from the void.

Pattering!

"It's raining..." Qiu Zhanyu exclaimed.

Lin Fan extended his palm, letting the raindrops fall on him.

These raindrops were unusual.
