From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

They stepped onto the golden leaf artifact and flew to the opening of the North Realm.

Qing Yang Zi briefed everyone on what to expect when they entered it.

Lin Fang, Ho Ming and Zhang Yi Nian, having been here before, weren't as anxious as the other Peak Lords.

After everyone was ready, they leaped into the opening to the North Realm.

Lin Fan saw the imageries again, but he was able to ignore them this time.

Han Dang and Zhao Ming Ye had to steady themselves as they approached the entrance of the North Realm.

Whoosh.

Lin Fan got through the entrance, and he felt gusts of cold wind coming at his face.

He quickly activated his Skybound Stride ability and slowed his descent from the sky.

Plop.

The soft snow cushioned his landing, and he looked around for the others.

"Ho Ming!" Lin Fan called out and he saw a familiar figure waving at him.

"I'm all right." Ho Ming called out to Lin Fan.

The other peak lords also subsequently landed from the sky and gathered together where Lin Fan was.

"The Dark Temple is after that small hill." Zhao Ming Ye pointed in the direction of the small hill Lin Fan had camped at with Ho Ming and Zhang Yi Nian previously.

They moved towards the small hill against the snow storm that was blowing their way.

Lin Fan saw the wooden hut and Ho Jie waving at him again.

Trying to invite him into the warmth of the wooden hut.

The other peak lords saw different things. Han Dang saw his brother and his father.

Qing Yang Zi and Zhao Qing Ying saw their masters and ancestors of the Qing Feng Sect.

Soon, they got past the area and reached the small hill.

A figure leaped from afar and landed on top of the hill.

It was the huge fox that belonged to Jade Face Lin.

The huge fox growled and lunged at Qing Yang Zi.

Zhao Qing Ying sent out a slicing wave at the huge fox.

Thud.

The huge fox took on the slicing wave, but it didn't do much damage to the huge fox.

Qing Yang Zi drew out the Qing Feng Sword and unleashed a Cross Strike at the huge fox's head.

The huge fox used its tail to cover its face.

Thud.

The X slicing wave from the cross strike hit the huge fox's tail and dissipated.

Zhang Yi Nian then lunged at the huge fox and got onto its back, and he punched down onto the huge fox's back.

Splatter.

The punch caused the back of the huge fox to erupt into a huge gaping wound.

It tried to roll and get Zhang Yi Nian off its back.

Zhang Yi Nian had no choice but to leap away, avoiding being crushed underneath the huge fox's body.

Lin Fan meanwhile was ready with his fist and when the huge fox rolled over, exposing its belly, he delivered a punch at it.

Boom!

The punch broke the air and the snow around Lin Fan dispersed into the air.

The Qi wave from Lin Fan hit the huge fox's belly and it plowed through its belly and came out through the back of the huge fox.

Breaking the body of the huge fox into two halves.

Lin Fan's powers at Level 10 Physique Level were formidable.

"Lin Fan, well done." Qing Yang Zi nodded at Lin Fan's improvement in such a short amount of time.

"Yi Nian, I see you've trained him well. I have high hopes for the Physiques Peak." He turned to Zhang Yi Nian and gave him an approving nod.

"Lin Fan is definitely one of the best and the new disciples are doing well too." Zhang Yi Nian said in reply.

"Let's get going. They know we are here, better to stay on high alert." Zhao Qing Ying interjected and they continued on their journey to the Dark Temple.

Zhao Ming Ye led the way with the memories and statements he got from the Iron Heart Nun.

It got warmer and warmer as they moved on.

Before they realized it, they were at an old temple, surrounded by a dark forest.

Eyes that glowed a dark crimson stared at Lin Fan and the others within the darkness of the forest.

"The Xuan Ming Elder should be inside." Zhao Ming Ye pointed at the entrance of the old temple.

The old temple had rows of stone statues that were figures of cultivators along the path to the entrance.

As they walked along, Zhao Qing Ying finally realized who these statues were.

They were the ancestors of the different sects.

"There, the Qing Feng ancestor." Zhao Qing Ying pointed at the stone statue nearest to the entrance.

"Despicable." Qing Yang Zi cursed as he was reminded of the ancestor's heart that was eaten by the Xuan Ming Elder.

"Wait, is it me or are the stone statues moving?" Han Dang asked when he saw the arms of the West Monastery ancestor move.

"It's not you!" Zhao Qing Ying shouted as he leaped away from the Twirling Wind Strike unleashed at him by the Qing Feng ancestor.

Where Lin Fan and Ho Ming were standing, they were near the statue of the Yi Mei ancestor.

The Yi Mei ancestor lunged at Lin Fan with a Celestial Strike, sending out a crescent Qi wave at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan turned into a mist and the Qi wave missed.

The mist traveled to the back of the Yi Mei ancestor.

When Lin Fan appeared again, he punched at the Yi Mei ancestor's head.

Crack.

The head of the Yi Mei ancestor was blown into smithereens.

However, the stone statue of the Yi Mei ancestor still moved, and it swung back its stone sword at Lin Fan.

Thud.

The sword's Qi wave caught Lin Fan at close range, but it couldn't cut through the tough skin of Lin Fan.

Lin Fan held onto the stone sword, pulled back his fist and punched at the body of the stone statue.

Boom!

His fist went through the body of the stone statue.

Breaking the stone statue into two halves.

Even though the upper half of the stone statue dropped onto the ground, it still moved and tried to grab onto Lin Fan's legs.

While the lower half of the body kicked at Lin Fan.

Thud.

The kick landed on Lin Fan's body, but the rebounding force from the Primordial Titan Bastion caused the leg of the stone statue to crumble into pieces.

Lin Fan then stomped down on the hands trying to grab onto his legs.

Boom!

The upper body of the stone statue broke into pieces and stopped moving.

Lin Fan then gave a frontal kick at the lower body.

Causing it to explode into pieces.
