Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Are You Also a Divine Thought Master? (Four Updates for You to Enjoy)

In the Qin Mansion Lake, a flat boat moved slowly.

"With Divine Soul Telekinesis imbued in the melody of the zither?"

Piano Girl pondered.

Her Sea of Consciousness had flaws, and the Divine Soul Telekinesis would continuously leak out. Only when she played the zither did the leaking slow down considerably.

It was precisely because of this that her Piano Skill was cultivated and the name Qin Xianzi was established.

"Right, the melody creates an ambiance! If Divine Soul Telekinesis is added to it and then guided, would it not create an attack comparable to a high-level Divine Thought Master?"

Piano Girl suddenly awoke from her reverie.

"Let’s try it now!"

She sat down, took out the Jade Zither, and placed it on her lap. Her jade fingers plucked the strings, and once again, notes sounded across the lake.

This time, she secretly imbued it with Divine Soul Telekinesis.

"Is this the third piece from Fairy Qin?"

Those ready to leave Lake Heart Island stopped in their tracks, again immersed in the ambiance created.

This time, Qin Xianzi played ’Phoenix Seeking Phoenix,’ filled with the theme of longing love.

But after just a hundred breaths, everyone found themselves shedding tears.

Ling Chen had already reached the shore, listening to the faint zither music from afar, he couldn’t help but smile, saying, "Worthy of the name Qin Xianzi."

Just a simple attempt and it immediately engrossed people, indeed a genius in the art of the zither!

Only when the melody gradually faded did the people wake up from their trance.

...

Returning to the banquet.

Everyone drank and conversed with renewed enthusiasm.

However, most of the conversation revolved around Qin Xianzi.

Ling Wu looked at Ling Chen, curiously asking, "Brother, what did Qin Xianzi say to you?"

Hearing this, Wan Er and others also looked over immediately.

Qin Xianzi had chosen to interact with Ling Chen, and though they could see the two talking without any intimate contact inside. But Qin Xianzi played a piece just for Ling Chen, something many envied.

"Nothing much. It seems that Qin Xianzi once traveled through Guangling City, where she found a kindred spirit among my elders at Ling Family."

Ling Chen said with a smile.

"Oh, I see. No wonder she was willing to meet with you!"

Everyone then understood.

They thought so, Ling Chen had interrupted Qin Xianzi’s performance after all.

But instead of blaming Ling Chen, Qin Xianzi played a piece specifically for him, as a tribute to a kindred spirit’s descendant!

Not too far away, Gu Lin was all ears, eavesdropping on the conversation.

Hearing this, he relaxed.

He stood up again and approached Wan Er, smiling, "Miss Wan Er, how about I perform a sword dance for you?"

Earlier, he had suggested performing a sword dance with Ling Chen, which Wan Er had declined.

But his desire to make Ling Chen look foolish had not died.

"Isn’t performing with weapons improper?"

Wan Er hesitated.

"Miss Wan Er, don’t worry. This is a new form of sword dance, impossible to achieve without being a Divine Thought Master!"

Gu Lin said confidently.

"Really?"

"Is it that miraculous?"

...

Everyone’s gaze turned his way, full of anticipation.

Even Wan Er seemed intrigued.

"Young Master Lingchen, would you like to see it?"

Gu Lin smiled at Ling Chen.

"Of course, I’d like to witness such a miraculous sword dance!"

Ling Chen nodded.

"Alright, since everyone wants to see it, I’ll show my humble skills!"

Gu Lin smiled slightly and walked up onto a high platform.

"Hum!"

Gu Lin’s hand summoned a longsword, and with a flick of his right hand, the longsword flew straight up several zhangs into the sky.

Then, Divine Soul Telekinesis surged from the Heavenly Spirit and attached to the longsword, controlling its up and down flight, tracing all kinds of trajectories.

Ordinary cultivators would surely need to hold the sword to perform such maneuvers; how could they play with such flair?

Indeed, only a Divine Thought Master could achieve this!

Moreover, it must be a mid-tier Divine Thought Master whose Divine Soul has reached the Solid Realm!

Ling Chen glanced at Gu Lin, who was deliberately showing off, and shook his head slightly.

In fact, the moment Gu Lin spoke, Ling Chen had mostly understood what means he was using.

With the Divine Soul reaching the Solid Realm, Divine Soul Telekinesis can materialize and naturally control physical objects.

However, to exert the true power of Divine Soul Telekinesis, a Spiritual Weapon is indispensable!

A Divine Thought Master of high standing actually using Divine Soul Telekinesis to please others could truly be called the shame of Divine Thought Masters.

"Good!"

The crowd applauded and cheered.

Divine Thought Masters were already extremely rare; even the True Martial Academy did not have many, and most people seldom saw Divine Thought Masters take action, let alone a mid-tier Divine Thought Master.

Bolstered by the crowd’s cheers, pride swelled within Gu Lin’s heart. He retrieved the longsword and directly took out a Spiritual Weapon, then infused it with a stream of green Spiritual Power.

Afterward, he used Divine Soul Telekinesis to control the Spiritual Weapon and write the words "Happy Birthday Wan Er" in large characters mid-air, which held shape without dissipating!

This caused Wan Er’s beautiful eyes to shine with astonishment.

Seeing this, Gu Lin became even more proud and flaunted his skill with greater vigor.

He directly controlled the Spiritual Weapon to fly beside Wan Er, then circled around her.

Wan Er grew even more excited.

At this moment, Gu Lin glanced at Ling Chen and found that the latter had not even lifted his eyelids and was simply enjoying his drink by himself.

"I intended to make you look foolish, and you still dare to look down upon me?"

A tinge of anger surged in Gu Lin’s heart.

With a thought, he made the Spiritual Weapon rotate rapidly around Wan Er, almost forming a green streak of light.

Then, he suddenly controlled the Spiritual Weapon to thrust viciously toward Ling Chen’s forehead!

"Be careful!"

Wan Er and others exclaimed in alarm.

But the Spiritual Weapon moved incredibly fast; it was nearly about to pierce Ling Chen in an instant.

Of course, Gu Lin did not dare to kill Ling Chen, daring not because, after all, Ling Chen was a core student just like him.

He simply wanted to scare Ling Chen, to make the latter lose face.

However, Ling Chen did not so much as lift an eyelid, remaining calm as he lifted a cup of fine wine, as if the Spiritual Weapon didn’t exist at all.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing the Spiritual Weapon stop just a half inch from Ling Chen, the crowd also breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Lin was dumfounded; Ling Chen was so audacious that, faced with his attack, he did not dodge or duck?

"I hate it when people point swords at me!"

Ling Chen thought, and a surge of Divine Soul Telekinesis burst forth from the Heavenly Spirit, directly seizing control of the Spiritual Weapon. The Spiritual Weapon reversed direction, stabbing toward Gu Lin.

"Swish!"

A few strands of hair by Gu Lin’s ear were cleanly sliced off.

"Ah!"

Gu Lin screamed, only reacting after the Spiritual Weapon had cut his hair.

At that moment, his eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

The Spiritual Weapon had clearly been under his control, so how come in the blink of an eye, the Divine Soul Telekinesis he had bestowed upon it was gone?

"This is the first time, and I hope it will be the last time. Next time, it won’t just be your hair being cut!"

Ling Chen looked at Gu Lin and drained the wine in his hand.

Everyone was stunned.

The Spiritual Weapon controlled by Gu Lin actually acted against his will, turning on him?

"Are you also a Divine Thought Master?"

Gu Lin stared at Ling Chen and said, word by word.

Ling Chen hadn’t used any Spiritual Power, and yet he was able to take away his control; only Divine Soul Telekinesis could do that!

Just now, he was somewhat startled by Ling Chen’s exceedingly calm expression and did not clearly sense whether Ling Chen had utilized Divine Soul Telekinesis.

But the Divine Soul Telekinesis he had imbued in the Spiritual Weapon couldn’t possibly disappear without reason!

Only one possibility remained: Ling Chen was also a Divine Thought Master, and furthermore, one no weaker than him!
