From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Chapter 120 Eight Trigram Beast Hammer Style

Qing Feng Sect.

When Lin Fan came back to the sect, everything was the same as usual.

Disciples were cultivating and taking on missions, and menial disciples were doing their chores.

The first thing Lin Fan did was go to the Artifact Peak and pass Sima Liang's letter to the senior disciples there.

They had a look and just shrugged their shoulders.

It was common for disciples unable to break through to the next level to leave the sect.

Being stuck at a level meant that you couldn't progress any further in the sect.

It was best to return to your family and help bring prosperity to them.

You just needed to pay a price before you left, which was something Sima Liang could do easily.

After visiting Artifact Peak, Lin Fan went back to the wooden hut.

When he entered, it seemed like ages since he had last seen Ho Jie.

Ho Jie was back after gathering firewood for the day, looking just as healthy as ever.

"You are back. Haven't seen you in a while," Ho Jie said when he saw Lin Fan.

Lin Fan poured some tea, took a mouthful, and said, "I went on a mission or two. It was interesting though."

He went on and told Ho Jie about his encounters with the Sima Family and the Raging Tiger Army.

Ho Jie rubbed his chin and frowned when he heard about the demonic beast horde.

"Demonic beast horde in late spring? That's unheard of," Ho Jie said.

"Unheard of?", Lin Fan asked.

"Yes, it usually happens in late autumn or winter. Never late spring. Something must have happened," Ho Jie explained.

"Something, huh," Lin Fan said as he pondered the possibilities.

But he had only one answer in his mind — most likely, it had something to do with the Dark Lotus Sect.

It was, however, none of his concern for now.

So, he let it off his mind for now.

Lin Fan had more important things to do for himself.

After Ho Jie left the wooden hut for his gathering with friends, Lin Fan couldn't wait and took out his hammers.

He placed the Eight Trigram Beast Hammer Style manuscript in front of him.

Turning to the first page, he saw the first stroke — Eight Trigram Sound Wave.

Lin Fan recalled how the General banged the hammers together and caused a bad headache for him.

He followed the instructions in the manuscript, directing his Qi into the hammers, making his Qi swirl inside them like the Yin and Yang forces.

Dang.

The sound didn't do anything on the first try.

Lin Fan's control of his Qi wasn't good enough.

The Qi collapsed together at the last minute.

Not giving up, Lin Fan tried again.

Dang.

The same thing happened.

It went on until Lin Fan didn't have any Qi left in his dantian.

He took out some Blood and Qi Restoration pills and swallowed them.

Of all the things, he wasn't short of Blood and Qi Restoration pills.

If the other disciples knew how much Lin Fan had, they would be so envious as it would take them one mission to afford just one bottle of it.

When his Qi had been restored, Lin Fan meditated as Sun Hai had taught him.

He needed to focus so that he could control his Qi more effectively.

Lin Fan opened his eyes after his Qi went through one round of all his meridians.

He started to direct his Qi carefully.

Slowly, the Yin and Yang-like Qi started to swirl from the handle of the hammers.

Then it went up to the middle of the hammers.

Finally, when it reached the tip of the hammers, Lin Fan banged them together.

Dang!

The sound erupted out into the surroundings.

And Lin Fan started to hear things dropping on the ground.

He peeped out of the window and saw birds and squirrels dropping onto the ground from the trees.

The Eight Trigram Sound Wave had made them unconscious.

Success.

He continued to the next stroke.

After all, he needed to return the manuscript the next year.

He'd better master all the strokes inside it as much as possible.

Flipping through the manuscript, the Eight Trigram Beast Transform strike was next.

This stroke was much simpler and required Lin Fan to inject Qi into the demonic beast core.

When enough Qi was injected, he could then transform the Qi into the form of the demonic beast at the enemy.

Lin Fan went outside the wooden hut and tried it out.

After injecting some of his Qi into the Ember Wolf core, the hammer glowed red hot.

He swiped the hammer across a tree trunk in front of him, and the glow left the hammer.

It turned into the form of a red-illuminated Ember Wolf.

But it disappeared like a puff of smoke after a second.

The Qi Lin Fan injected must not have been enough, Lin Fan thought.

So, he tried again.

This time, he injected twice the amount of Qi into the demonic beast core.

Whoosh.

The illuminated Ember Wolf appeared, lunged at the tree trunk in front of Lin Fan, and disappeared again.

It was still not enough.

Lin Fan then took some Blood and Qi Restoration pills and tried again.

He injected all of the Qi he had and swiped the hammer at the tree trunk again.

The illuminated Ember Wolf lunged at the tree trunk, took a bite out of it, and the tree fell.

Thud.

A muted thud could be felt when the tree hit the ground.

It was successful, but it wasn't practical for Lin Fan right now.

One strike took all the Qi he had.

It seemed like he might have to try breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Level first.

After he took more Blood and Qi Restoration pills, he continued with his learning.

He tried the final strike — Eight Trigram Hammer Throw.

This required him to use his Qi to stick to the hammers like glue and manipulate them.

It wasn't easy, as Lin Fan needed a huge reservoir of Qi and very delicate control to stick the Qi to the hammers as if it were holding them.

For this, he couldn't even get the hammers to fly an inch.

The amount of Qi that he had was just not enough for him to do that.

Lin Fan would have to find Senior Martial Brother Sun Hai the next day to help him break through.

Hopefully, breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Level would help him with his deficiency of Qi. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire
