“Is that so?” Dao Ling frowned for a moment but was soon back to normal . “I was wondering why you had suddenly found me and given me such a strong power for nothing . ”
Lin Sheng had been too generous in providing him with the way to break through his limits without any restrictions, and that actually made him worry the entire time . However, he was relieved when Lin Sheng revealed the key behind it .
“Once every six months, that’s alright . The price is just a loss of power? That’s okay . That’s generous of you . If I had such secrets…” Dao Ling did not go on . He just chuckled . “What are you going to do next?”
Lin Sheng walked two meters across from him and stopped by the wall . “Martial arts are on the decline . Now that there is a glimmer of hope, I hope that more masters of martial arts will know this method . ”
“That’s easy . I have a few close friends, I’ll call them right now . They’re better than me, but they’re stuck at their limit because of their age . ” Dao Ling sighed . “I didn’t believe it at first, and if you hadn’t shown me your strength, I would’ve missed the boat . ”
“How are you feeling now? How has your strength changed?” Lin Sheng was most concerned about the change in Dao Ling’s strength .
Dao Ling was the ultimate Level 2 warrior . After breaking through, he had advanced to the transcendental Level 3 now . Although different from Lin Sheng, who had absorbed the many memories of swordsmen, Dao Ling was definitely an extraordinary one among ordinary people .
“I feel that not only is my body back to its peak, but there is a wonderful warmth growing in my belly . In addition to the protective force that covers my body, I think I’ve already exceeded my prime . ”
“Do you want to give it a try?” Lin Sheng suggested .
“Okay . ” Dao Ling stood up .
They stood opposite each other .
“Be careful…” Dao Ling opened his hands and held them out like claws .
*Swoosh!*
Dao Ling moved very fast . Like an eagle grabbing a rabbit, his right “claw” was aimed straight at Lin Sheng’s right shoulder . Weirdly enough, his claw was moving in a straight line, but visually, it appeared to be drifting left and right .
Lin Sheng was not afraid . He raised his right palm like a sword, hitting Dao Ling’s claws extremely fast in the air .
Dao Ling also swung his left hand as quick as lightning, blocking Lin Sheng’s palm .
The two of them fought swiftly in the quiet room .
After a muffled thump, Dao Ling stepped back and lost . A small white mark was left on his right shoulder .
“Amazing!” Dao Ling laughed and was not discouraged . After all, Lin Sheng had displayed his actual strength before .
However, Lin Sheng was a little surprised .
Although he did not use the Sacred Blood or the holy power, he was considered one of the strongest Level 3 warriors .
He was really doing the best he could earlier without using his full strength, but Dao Ling only lost by one move .
Lin Sheng pondered . He believed that, at that point, Dao Ling was able to confront two Level 2 elite warriors .
“After breaking through your limit, you don’t just get back to your peak, your body also improves . Your speed, your strength, your physique, they all increase . You’ve now achieved transcendence,” Lin Sheng said frankly .
“Transcendence?” Dao Ling was glad that he had finally reached a level that he was not qualified to reach before .
“Yes…” Lin Sheng explained roughly to Dao Ling what transcendence meant .
Now, Dao Ling was second only to him . He was the top master in Ironfist Society, and there was room for him to grow up so Lin Sheng had to treat him well .
Dao Ling was even more amazed when he learned of the specific hierarchy after he achieved transcendence .
Lin Sheng had told him about Blackfeather City’s hierarchy . He also told Dao Ling frankly that he was only equivalent to a Level 3 warrior at the moment .
“What is the highest level in this system?” asked Dao Ling .
“It’s too early for you to ask . Practice well, and you will know when the time comes for you to know . ” Lin Sheng did not tell him what level he was at right then .
After he answered Dao Ling’s questions, he drew another Ashen Seal and gave it to him so that Dao Ling could give it to his friends or use it himself . When the frequency of meditations increased, the growth of the holy power would be significantly accelerated too .
Lin Sheng then left the meditation area and returned to the hall just in time to hear Sarroux talking to a stranger .
The stranger was wearing Ironfist Club’s uniform .
Lin Sheng had not been to the club since he founded Ironfist Society . After all, it was a little awkward after that incident .
He had left Ironfist Club for more than two weeks . What was a member of the club doing there?
Lin Sheng wondered and slowly approached them .
Sarroux turned to see Lin Sheng coming and quickly said, “Something happened at the club!” He looked hesitant, not knowing what to do .
“What happened?”
Sarroux looked at the stranger . She was a lean young girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old . The girl was also sweating from her forehead, and she looked worried .
“President Lin, something happened to the club! Many members have recently left! If you don’t help us, then…”
“Speak slowly . Take your time, don’t worry . ”
The girl calmed down and told the story .
After Lin Sheng left, the members of the club felt like they were powerful and became arrogant . Several members who were usually gentle also began to overestimate their abilities once they managed to solve one or two issues together .
Then, things started to happen .
During a night patrol not long ago, the club clashed with some people . They were a medium-sized gang in the Blackwater district with a reputation for being ruthless .
The conflict was not serious, but there were injuries on both sides .
Shayeen, Russell, and Madillan regarded themselves as equally strong, and they thought that the gang would be afraid of them, so they let their guard down .
A few days ago, the gang came over to seek revenge, and five members of the club were severely wounded .
Russell went off the deep end and gathered all of the members to put pressure on the gang .
The next day, the retaliation was even more serious .
