"Gaoren?" The Old Blue Sheep’s expression changed, and he sneered, "Do you think I would believe such a childish excuse?"
"You have already witnessed the chess skills of Daoist Tianyan. Even he couldn’t solve it. Do you think I, with my level, could possibly solve that chess game?"
Lin Mufeng, filled with reverence, continued, "And that box, also bestowed by the great person. Don’t you think it’s too smooth for me to enter the secret realm and retrieve the Ice Essence Crystal? In fact, everything is completely under the great person’s control. He has already paved the way for me!"
"This is chess, this is chess!" Daoist Tianyan’s face turned flushed, his eyes gleaming with a sacred light, his body trembling as he muttered excitedly.
Lin Mufeng exclaimed, "The great person’s calculations are flawless, using the world as a chessboard. In fact, I am merely a pawn in the great person’s hand, but I am willing to be so."
The Old Blue Sheep’s expression was unpredictable, and he finally sneered, "Ha ha ha, utterly ridiculous! The path between immortals and mortals has been severed for thousands of years. How could such a person exist in the mere cultivation world? On the brink of death, you actually try to deceive me with such a low-level idea. Foolish!
If he is so flawless, did he calculate that I would kill you here and take the Ice Essence Crystal?"
"Alas."
Lin Mufeng sighed deeply, his face showing a look of pity, "This was also within the great person’s control. I wanted to persuade you to turn back, but you are stubborn. Today, you will lose a fellow Daoist."
"Use whatever tricks you have! My lifespan is nearly over. Even if there really is such a great person, I will offend him. Riches and honors are sought in danger; I must take the risk!"
The Old Blue Sheep seemed deranged, emitting a strong aura, countless blue lights floating before him. With a wave of his hand, they all shot towards Lin Mufeng!
Faced with the countless blue lights shooting at him, Old Sun’s heart almost leaped to his throat, panicking.
He couldn’t help but look at Lin Mufeng, almost urging him to act.
You were so high and mighty just now, so hurry up and make a move. What are you standing there for, posing?
Didn’t you see that the attack is almost upon you?
The blue lights flashed rapidly, just three feet away from Lin Mufeng.
But Lin Mufeng’s expression remained calm. He slowly raised his palm, and instantly, the blue lights, as if obstructed by some invisible force, stopped in front of Lin Mufeng.
A fierce wind suddenly arose!
The wind enveloped all directions, blowing indiscriminately, making Old Sun’s beard fly wildly and forcing him to retreat.
Rustle, rustle, rustle—
The wind was so strong that it almost changed the color of the sky and earth.
At the same time, a surging Dao aura emanated from Lin Mufeng, making his figure seem to tower infinitely, as if supporting the heavens and earth.
"This, this is..."
The Old Blue Sheep’s face changed dramatically, his eyes filled with unprecedented fear, almost trembling, "S-Supernatural power?"
"I thought this move was casually passed down to me by the great person. Now, I realize he probably foresaw this moment and specially taught it to me for protection." Lin Mufeng’s face was filled with many emotions, his admiration for the great person’s planning deepening.
"You, you, you..." The Old Blue Sheep’s whole body trembled. He wanted to flee but found a powerful aura enveloping him, making him feel as if there was nowhere to run.
Lin Mufeng slowly raised his hand, "Have you ever seen a palm strike descending from the sky?"
Buzz!
In the void, it seemed as if the sound of the Great Dao was heard.
The clouds in the sky parted, revealing a giant palm!
In the next moment, the palm broke through the clouds, like a meteor chasing the moon, rapidly descending towards the Old Blue Sheep!
"No, no!"
The Old Blue Sheep looked up at the sky, emitting a desperate roar.
All his resistance was rendered meaningless under this palm, unable to stop it in the slightest.
Rip!
His clothes burst apart!
In the next moment, the palm descended!
Boom!
The earth rumbled, the mountains and forests trembled!
When the dust settled, a huge palm print was clearly visible on the ground from above!
As for the Old Blue Sheep, he was nowhere to be seen, vanished with the wind.
"My... my mother!"
Old Sun was completely stunned. He looked at Lin Mufeng as if he were seeing his friend for the first time, stammering, "This, this was also taught to you by the great person?"
"What qualifications do I have for the great person to teach me? I merely had the luck to observe a trace of his aura."
Lin Mufeng turned around calmly, as if he had just done a trivial thing, looking at the palm print on the ground, "Alas, my comprehension is too poor, I only grasped one or two points of its essence."
One or two points of essence?
Just?
This is a supernatural power!
Old Sun’s eyes turned red with envy.
Lin Mufeng, you have changed. After meeting the great person, you have become more and more pretentious.
But... I also want to meet the great person!
"Lin Daoist, you said earlier that the chess game was guided by the great person. Is that true?" Daoist Tianyan looked at Lin Mufeng, full of anticipation.
Lin Mufeng nodded, "Of course it’s true."
Daoist Tianyan suddenly bowed deeply to Lin Mufeng, sincerely saying, "I should be content to have seen such a world-renowned chess game, but knowing there is such a great person in the world, I would regret it for life if I didn’t visit. I wonder if Lin Daoist can help introduce us?"
"This..." Lin Mufeng’s brows furrowed. He looked at Daoist Tianyan and the expectant Old Sun, and after a moment’s thought, said, "Getting the fridge was also your effort. And the great person likes chess. I will try to take you to visit him."
Daoist Tianyan and Old Sun were instantly shaken, their faces filled with joy.
Lin Mufeng said, "We shouldn’t delay. Since we have the fridge, we must deliver it to the great person as soon as possible to show our sincerity. Let’s go!"
Immediately, the three of them rode their遁light towards the Qianlong Immortal Dynasty.
When they reached a mountain, Lin Mufeng immediately stopped at the foot of the mountain, his tone serious, "The great person is on this mountain. We will walk up on foot."
"Of course! This is the basic respect for the great person!" Old Sun and Daoist Tianyan agreed, nodding repeatedly.
Lin Mufeng continued, "You must remember, the great person lives in the mortal world because he enjoys the ordinary life of mortals. Everywhere around him is treasure, and opportunities abound. You must control your mindset and approach with a peaceful attitude. Otherwise, you will surely displease the great person."
"Don’t worry, you’ve reminded us more than a hundred times on the way!" Old Sun said.
Lin Mufeng said seriously, "This is the great person’s taboo, which is why I keep emphasizing it!"
Daoist Tianyan’s eyes lit up, suddenly saying, "I seem to understand the great person’s mindset a bit."
