Chapter 182: Symbol Ancestor

As Lin Dong departed, the stone hall remained silent.

Everyone was shocked that Lin Dong was actually able to
withstand the pressure of a Qi Creation stage practitioner.
Though the perfect Yuan Dan stage was only two stages away
from the Qi Creation stage, the difference between the them
was like heaven and earth.
A perfect Yuan Dan stage practitioner could perhaps be
considered as a top tier practitioner in Yan City. However, it
would not amount to much outside. Only by truly advancing
to the Creation stage would one become famed in the Great
Yan Empire.
A practitioner that has advanced to the first level of the
Creation stage, the Form Creation stage, could easily defeat
the combined forces of ten perfect Yuan Dan practitioners.
This was the extent of the difference between them; difficult
to make up for even with numbers.
When he was at the Heavenly Yuan stage, Lin Dong could
match up against an advanced Yuan Dan practitioner,
however, at the perfect Yuan Dan stage, it was very difficult
for him to oppose Lin Langtian who was at Creation Stage…
Hence, when they saw that he was actually able to withstand
Lin Langtian’s pressure and walk out of the stone hall, the
crowd could not help but feel a trace of astonishment in their
hearts. This kind of willpower was very unimaginable on an
inexperienced looking youngster.
“Heh, brother Lin Langtian, it seems like you have a new
challenger.” As he stared at the bloodied footprints on the
ground, Wang Yan’s eyes slightly narrowed before he
chuckled.
After hearing these words, Lin Langtian let out a chuckle as
he casually said: “In this Great Yan Empire, there are
countless people who hope to use me to become famous
under the heavens, having one more means nothing to me.
However, most of them are only acting out of a moment of
anger. When they calm down, they will realize how
ridiculous they are.”
Wang Yan smiled. However, as his eyes stared at the
bloodied footprints, they slightly narrowed.
……
On a secluded mountain peak in the Sky Flame Mountain
Range, Lin Dong was seated on a large boulder. The blood on
his body had already solidified and fallen off. Even though it
seemed like he had been badly injured by that pressure from
before, it was not that severe. After all, Lin Langtian only
wanted to demonstrate his dominance and force Lin Dong
onto his knees. However, he never expected that this was
something that Lin Dong would never permit.
He would kneel to heavens, he would kneel to the earth, and
he would kneel to his parents, however, he would never
kneel in front of Lin Langtian!
Little Flame lay flat on the ground behind Lin Dong, it knew
that Lin Dong was extremely moody now, hence, it did not
make any noise as it quietly lay beside him.
“Kid, you were impressive!”
In front of Lin Dong, a glowing shadow materialized, as the
small marten appeared. However, it did not mock him as
before, but instead raised its claws to him and spoke.
“After being humiliated in such a way, how can I be called
impressive?” Lin Dong chuckled somewhat self-
deprecatingly.
“Kid, if you had really disregarded your life and pulled out
all the stops against him, you would be considered
impressive as well. In fact, the bystanders will probably
admire your courage, before they mourn your loss. However,
after that, your Lin Family will fall into despair. Your parents
will be heartbroken and they may even fight to the death
against that guy for you. Then, the outcome will still be same
and you will have also doomed the entire Lin Family. You
should also understand why this is so, that is because the
current you is not as valuable as that fellow.”
The small marten smiled as it somewhat sincerely said:
“Sometimes, it’s best not to go all-out. A truly impressive
individual knows when to endure and when to withdraw.
Even if others mock him, he will ignore them. That is true
courage and charisma…because, hope springs eternal as long
as one is alive.”
“When you become more powerful that Lin Langtian, even if
you kill him, the Lin Clan will not dare to take any action
against your Lin
Family. You should understand this principle. It was also
why you chose the most humiliating option just now. Heh
heh, your choice has earned a little of my admiration for the
first time.”
Lin Dong deeply exhaled, as he stared up at the blue sky.
Suddenly, he asked: “If I want to defeat him two years later,
is it possible?”
“It is doable, but it will be very difficult.”
The small marten slowly nodded its head and said: “That
fellow’s talent is truly terrifying. Furthermore, he has the
support of the Lin Clan. Hence, he has access to all the best
training resources available. While you are improving
yourself, he will likely improve at an even quicker rate. Two
years is truly a short time, an ordinary perfect Yuan Dan
stage practitioner will needs perhaps several years or even
decades advance to the Form Creation stage. Furthermore,
that fellow is at the Qi Creation stage!”
Lin Dong silently nodded his head. He knew how challenging
this would be, however…
“Two years later, I will defeat him!”
When it heard the steely conviction in the youngster’s voice,
the small marten suddenly let out a laugh and said: “Of
course, it does not mean that there is no way to do so.”
Lin Dong eyes slightly flickered as he stared at the small
marten.
“Ancestral Symbol.” The small marten casually replied.
“Ancestral Symbol?” Lin Dong was taken aback, as he
recalled the Mental Energy map that he had obtained at the
Symbol Master Tower. On the map were the locations of two
Ancestral Symbols.
“You cannot imagine just how powerful an Ancestral Symbol
is. In fact, even in this entire Great Yan Empire, I doubt that
anyone can. From the memories that I inherited from my
tribe, I know that in this world, there was once a legendary
expert who ruled over the world. I cannot fully explain to you
just how terrifying that figure was. However, all I can tell you
is that for an existence like him, he only needed a flick of his
finger to completely obliterate the entire Great Yan Empire!”
For the first time, an extremely fanatical reverence appeared
in the small marten’s voice.
However, Lin Dong did not feel too overwhelmed. After all,
he could not imagine how anyone could wipe out an entire
empire with a flick of his finger…
That still seemed too distant to him.
“That legendary dictator was later called the “Symbol
Ancestor”, and he was renowned across the world.”
“Symbol Ancestor? Is he related to the Ancestral Symbols?”
Lin Dong was stunned, soon after, he swiftly inquired.
“As I have mentioned before, in this world, there are eight
Ancestral Symbols that were born from the laws of the world.
This “Symbol Ancestor” was the owner of all the eight
Ancestral Symbols. After which, these Ancestral Symbols
were scattered across the world and no one has managed to
gather them all since then. Nonetheless, if one is able to
obtain just one of them, he will become one of the present-
day’s strongest practitioners, and possess the might to flip
mountains and boil oceans!”
“Therefore, if you could find an “Ancestral Symbol”, I
guarantee you that two years later, in that so-called clan
gathering, you will definitely thrash Lin Langtian like a
sandbag! If you fail to do so, go ahead and beat me!”
When he heard those last few words, the taunt faced Lin
Dong involuntarily let out a chuckle, before he promptly said:
“Since this Ancestral Symbol is so powerful, it would be quite
difficult to find right? Else, that senior from before would not
have failed.”
“Of course. If it were so easy to find, how would you still
have the opportunity.” The small marten rolled its eyes as it
continued: “If you want to surpass Lin Langtian within two
year, this is the most dependable method.”
Lin Dong was silent for a while, as Lin Langtian’s indifferent
gaze once again flashed across his mind. Suddenly, he tightly
gripped his fist, as he slowly nodded his head: “Very well,
let’s go look for that Ancestral Symbol!”
“Heh heh, kid, this is the drive you need. Once you obtain the
Ancestral Symbol, your future potential will be limitless. At
that time, that crappy Lin Clan will be begging you to join
them.” When it saw this, the small marten gleefully replied.
“Why are you instigating me to look for this Ancestral
Symbol?” Lin Dong suddenly turned around as he
suspiciously asked.
“Eh…” As Lin Dong stared intently at it, the small marten
eye’s spun before it waved its claws in resignation and said:
“Kid, this is for your own good. This Stone Talisman has an
extraordinary origin. Since it has now landed in your hands,
in the future, there will definitely be big problems that will
come your way. If you are not powerful enough, you will end
up like me. Of course those that accompanied me will
naturally be doomed by my misfortune as well.”
When he saw the small marten’s expression, Lin Dong facial
expression turned slightly serious as he involuntarily traced
his fingers against his palm. Where exactly did this
mysterious Stone Talisman come from and what could it do?
Why was even this mysterious small marten so fearful.
“Don’t worry. Right now, that item is still sealed.
Furthermore, you are still too weak, hence no one will
discover it…” As if it was afraid that Lin Dong would be
flustered, the small marten hastily reassured him.
With a pained smile, Lin Dong nodded his head. He had
suddenly realized that this damned Stone Talisman was
actually a hidden bomb.
“When do you plan on leaving to search for the Ancestral
Symbol?” The small marten asked.
“Let’s head back to Yan City first. After we have settled all
our issues, we shall go!” Lin Dong thought for a moment,
before he replied.
“Alright, let’s go then.” The small marten nodded its head,
before it turned into a light beam and darted into Lin Dong’s
palm.
“Little Flame!”
Lin Dong called out as he stood up. Little Flame, which was
nearby, immediately dashed over, as Lin Dong jumped onto
its back. With a wave of his hand, Little Flame released a deep
growl, which shook the forests, before it turned into a red
flash and charged away from the Sky Flame Mountain Range.
At Little Flame’s full speed, it took only half a day to cross the
entire Sky Flame Mountain range. It was evidently much
faster than before.
A blazing shadow swept across the mountains, before it
violently stopped, as it charged towards a mountain peak
while roaring.
Seated on the tiger’s back, Lin Dong eyes slowly turned
towards that mountain peak, only to find was a man dressed
in golden seated at the top of the mountain, Under the rays of
the sun, dazzling lights were reflected off. A golden spear
stood in the hands of the man in gold, as an astonishing and
arrogant aura shot towards the heavens and surged across the
skies.
“Wang Yan!”
When he saw the figure seated on the mountaintop, Lin
Dong’s glaze slowly darkened.
“Lin Langtian is conceited and refused to take notice of you.
However, I do not wish to leave a potential disaster. After
today’s matter, you already bear a grudge against my Wang
Clan. Since that is the case, I must take your life today!”
On mountain top, the man dressed in gold slowly looked
down, as he stared at Lin Dong below, his cold voice laced
with killing intent.
