Chapter 403: Can Only Scare You First

Lin Fan’s cultivation rose to stage two .

To other people, this was a really joyous matter and they would even host banquets to celebrate it to announce to the world that they have reached stage two .

But Lin Fan was really calm and he didn’t react at all .

Stage two didn’t mean much to him .

If he improved to stage six or seven, then maybe he would feel emotional .

As for now, there was no need to announce it to the whole world .

The arrival of the 100 Long Rainbow Sect disciples caused Martial Path Mountain to become noisy . Due to faith, Gou’zi’s strength increased a lot and he became Master Gou to all of them .

Lin Fan was thinking of a way to raise his position in their hearts, so as to raise their faith in him .

However, it wasn’t effective at all .

There were many sects in the world with most being mid-tier sects and a few being top tier .

After fighting two mid-tier sects, he realized that they had very few Dao Realm experts . Even if they had, they were only stage one . They weren’t as strong as he had expected .

If one hadn’t been to a top sect, one would not be sure of their strength level . However, they definitely had many Dao Realm experts, and their top tier people should have been no lower than Mao Shentai .

Lin Fan felt like he continued like this, he would push the world’s combat strength up .

That was due to faith .

Even someone like Gou’zi who had no fighting strength at all could reach Domain Realm due to faith . That just didn’t make any sense . The more people who believed in him, the closer his faith would get to its peak .

He would be able to create numerous experts .

That night within the room, all the disciples were talking to one another about why they had become stronger .

“I feel like life is filled with chance encounters, some of which we can grab and some that we can’t . I am not going to leave this place . ”

The disciple laying there turned his head and faced the other people who were talking .

The few talking to one another turned and looked at him with hesitation and worry on their faces .

“I am afraid that we will become cannon fodder . After all, we are from Long Rainbow Sect and he won’t trust us . ”

Everyone nodded their heads as that was the truth .

They weren’t fools, so obviously they knew whether they were real disciples or cannon fodder .

“What is the difference? To me, this is an opportunity . All of us didn’t even cultivate and he could raise our strength to so high . Have you ever faced such a situation?”

“Moreover, I heard him say that whether or not we can become stronger depends on faith . As long as our faith is high, our strength will rise even more quickly . ”

After coming to Martial Path Mountain, some people were emotional and some were worried . That was totally normal .

Lin Fan gave them a sweet taste and gave them hope for the future . To these disciples, most of them hoped to continue in Martial Path Mountain .

“Sleep now . We have to wake up early to worship Sect Leader Lin . I feel that this is how we cultivate, it is much simpler than before . ”

Very quickly, all the lamps were extinguished and everything became quiet .

Morning!

Lin Fan woke up naturally and walked to the main hall with Gou’zi serving him . He sat on the throne as usual and allowed the disciples to look at him .

Since he came back to Martial Path Mountain, Mu Gang had become an assistant . Gou’zi felt like her skills were bad and she wasn’t able to make Young Master comfortable .

She had never thought that such a thing was actually a skill and that she needed to learn it .

If this was in the past, she wouldn’t have believed it even if she was beaten to death .

“All of you were Long Rainbow Sect disciples in the past, but you met my requirements and from now on, you will be disciples of Martial Path Mountain . As long as you are well behaved, no one will dare to bully you and I can also help you increase your strength . This is my promise to all of you . ” Lin Fan said .

The disciples raised their heads and looked at Lin Fan . Their eyes shone brightly as they were inspired by his words .

Zhang Tianshan was really inspired . At least this kid decided to develop Martial Path Mountain . However, the way he was developing it was a little off .

But that didn’t matter as his goal was to strengthen it .

Lin Fan said, “Now, I will give all of you things to do . I want the city and sect distributions in 1,000 miles around Martial Path Mountain . This is time for all of you to shine and prove your own value . ”

“Yes, Sect Leader . ” Everyone cheered .

Zhu Shen said softly, “Young Master Lin, will this expose our location?”

Lin Fan smiled . He told so many Long Rainbow Sect people to leave, so there would definitely be people who knew where Martial Path Mountain was .

Especially the Long Rainbow Sect Sect Leader whom he felt wouldn’t let the matter rest just like that .

He would definitely find ways to find trouble with him . The only thing was that he was too weak, so weak that he had to ask Zhu Shen to handle it for him .

“Don’t worry, it is time for Martial Path Mountain to reveal itself to the world . ” Lin Fan said .

Zhu Shen frowned and felt like this wasn’t a good choice . He wanted to be low profile and he didn’t want to attract attention . It was best if he didn’t partake in anything and waited for his father to find him, then he could do whatever he wanted .

But now, he wished that Young Master Lin would play it safe and not cause any trouble .

Lin Fan looked at Gou’zi . He was already at Dao Realm Stage Two and he could transmit more strength over to Gou’zi through the faith tether .

But he didn’t do so .

To him, he could raise Gou’zi’s cultivation to Dao Realm, but he didn’t . Gou’zi couldn’t control his strength now, so directly raising him to Dao Realm could cause him to lose control .

“This is really unbelievable . ”

Lin Fan himself was filled with disbelief . This was just shocking . Just with faith, he could raise someone’s cultivation to Dao Realm . What would the people, who cultivated for decades without getting into Dao Realm, think?

Darkness Chief God’s legacy ability wasn’t a joke . There were no restrictions at all either . As long as your faith was strong enough, you could become as strong as you wanted .

He loved such direct and honest methods unlike those that sounded so good but had many hidden restrictions .

At this point, he would like to thank the small support system .

Without the magnanimity of it, he would be unable to do all this .

98 disciples left Martial Path Mountain and started to investigate the other sects and cities that were around .

When the disciples left, Lin Fan called Gou’zi over as it was time for them to get busy . The reason why he sent them away was fake; the real reason was to raise faith .

This required Gou’zi’s help .

A few days later, far away from Martial Path Mountain, Xu Zhao was one of the more active ones out of the 98 disciples . He also had some status in Long Rainbow Sect and was at Master Realm cultivation before . But due to faith, he rose to Grandmaster Realm .

A 40-year-old at Master Realm was just average, but he had basically no hope of reaching a higher realm .

“Brother Xu, we are already 400 miles away from Martial Path Mountain, so please tell me the truth . Can we stay in Martial Path Mountain? Is it a place worthy of our loyalty?” Someone asked .

Xu Zhao raised his head and looked at the person who came . He kept silent and said, “It is worth it, trust me and also trust what has happened to us . ”

Suddenly!

A dark and sunken voice spread from the distance .

“Who is it?” Xu Zhao looked into the distance but as it was a dense forest, he was unable to see the specific situation within . However, the aura that was around them was a little off .

Xu Zhao told the people around to be careful as this was an enemy attack . They didn’t know where the person came from, but he definitely wasn’t weak .

A black shadow popped out from the forest like a specter . He wore a black robe and one couldn’t see his face .

It made one feel really suppressed .

Suddenly, loud cries could be heard .

Many black bugs appeared behind the person . Those bugs stacked together and it was a terrifying sight to watch .

There were also many winged buzzing bugs .

“Become the food of my babies . ” A hoarse and sinister voice spread out .

When they heard this sound, their arms and legs felt really cold . A chill surged up from their legs to their head . Numbness, coldness… even their legs became unresponsive .

The bugs surged towards them .

Step step!

A beast seemed to have been frightened . It charged right into where the bugs were heading . In the blink of an eye, that perfectly fine beast was now just a clean skeleton .

The people who wanted to fight back were stunned when they saw such a scene .

That was just too quick .

“Run . ”

Someone shouted and tried to flee right away . However, he realized that they were already surrounded by bugs .

They had no way out .

Cold sweat appeared on Xu Zhao’s forehead and his expression was really solemn . He really didn’t expect that he would face such a situation .

“We are Long… Martial Path Mountain disciples who are out to do a mission . We have no animosity with you, so why do you want to eat us?” Xu Zhao asked .

He didn’t get a reply .

The guy just stood there and didn’t move at all . He didn’t even lift a single limb . This made the entire situation really terrifying .

Feng Feng!

The bugs were really quick and the dense insects surged towards them .

“Stop staring at them like silly kids . If we don’t fight back we will die . ”

Xu Zhao knew that they couldn’t just wait for their deaths . He waved the blade in his hand . Blade energy surged forward and attacked the bugs . However, against such a large number of them, he barely dealt any damage .

Even if some bugs died, the bugs behind would replenish them .

“This…”

All of them were petrified when they looked at the scenes in front of them . The bugs were just endless .

“No…”

As the bugs covered them, someone raised his hand to cover his faces like he didn’t dare to face what was going to happen next .

Suddenly, they weren’t swallowed by the bugs .

Xu Zhao realized that an illusion appeared behind them . They had seen it before; it was the Chief God Illusion that Lin Fan previously revealed in front of them .

At the same time, the dense crowd of bugs stopped moving .
