I Don't Want To Defy The Heavens

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.
