Chapter 64: Four Seal Symbol Master — A Monstrous Physique!
"Monsters!"
Feeling the overwhelming spiritual fluctuations from within the Symbol Master Tower, Master Yan couldn't help but tug hard on his beard and cry out in shock.
"And not just one—two monsters at once!"
Ziyue was utterly shaken as well. A deep sense of shame stirred in her heart, thinking back to her former pride.
"That first wave of spiritual power came from Lin Dong. Who would've thought that kid actually broke through from a Second Seal to a Third Seal Symbol Master inside the tower? Truly a monster..."
Master Yan stared at the two glowing points on the eighth floor in astonishment.
Ziyue gave a bitter smile. "Lin Dong is certainly monstrous… but Lin Fan—I don't even know what word to use for him anymore."
"Eighteen years old, and already a Four Seal Symbol Master… I used to be proud of my own spiritual talent, but in front of him, I'm nothing."
Worried that Ziyue might be discouraged, Master Yan chuckled and said,
"Lin Fan isn't even human, that kid. From the moment he started training as a Symbol Master to now, reaching the Fourth Seal—it's only been about a year."
"I've lived more than half my life and just barely reached Four Seal. Compared to him, I should be smashing my head into a wall from shame!"
It wasn't just Master Yan and Ziyue who were stunned—every Symbol Master still gathered outside the tower was left speechless by the overwhelming shock.
And along with that shock came deep respect for both Lin Fan and Lin Dong.
Inside the eighth floor of the Symbol Master Tower—
Lin Dong had just successfully broken through to become a Third Seal Symbol Master.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan was still in the middle of his own breakthrough. In his Niwan Palace, three Life Symbols floated silently, continuously absorbing surging spiritual energy.
The central symbol now bore a deep crack—a clear sign that it was on the verge of splitting into a fourth!
Crack! Crack!
As time passed, the fissure grew wider. A crisp shattering sound echoed within Lin Fan's consciousness.
At the same time, the pulsing movement of the Life Symbol quickened.
Buzz... Buzz...
His entire Niwan Palace began to tremble lightly. The spiritual power within surged rapidly!
Crack!
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out once more.
In an instant, the crack reached its peak—and the central Life Symbol split in two, forming a fourth symbol that drifted weightlessly apart from the rest.
The fourth Life Symbol—complete!
Buzz!
The moment it formed, a spiritual storm erupted within Lin Fan's Niwan Palace. Invisible power whirled violently into a miniature tornado, emitting sharp whistling noises. A powerful spiritual wave exploded outward, spreading madly.
At that moment, Lin Fan's tightly shut eyes flew open—golden light burst from within, sharp and domineering.
"Congratulations, Brother Lin Fan, on becoming a Four Seal Symbol Master!"
Lin Dong grinned and offered his sincere congratulations.
Lin Fan stood up and gave Lin Dong a pat on the shoulder, smiling. "You did well too—stepping into the Third Seal."
[Ding! You touched Lin Dong and obtained: Eight Ancestral Glazed Body!
Note: A rare physique capable of attuning with all eight Ancestral Symbols. The higher your cultivation, the more you can control!]
Now that… is insane!
Hearing the familiar system chime in his mind, Lin Fan felt a wave of excitement rush through him.
Lin Dong scratched his head sheepishly. "Still not as fast as you, Brother Lin Fan."
Lin Fan teased with a grin, "What's wrong? Getting jealous because I advanced faster than you?"
"N-no! That's not what I meant!" Lin Dong waved his hands quickly.
Lin Fan chuckled. "Relax, I was joking."
Trying to change the subject, Lin Dong said, "Since we both just broke through, I doubt we'll improve much more in a short time. Should we head out?"
"No rush. Let's check out the ninth floor first."
Lin Fan's eyes shifted toward the spiritual barrier leading to the final floor of the tower.
"The ninth floor?"
Lin Dong's eyes flickered as he also looked at the entrance to the tower's final level. Curiosity stirred in his heart.
"Let's go."
Without saying more, Lin Fan walked straight toward the barrier. Wrapped in spiritual energy, he passed through it with ease.
Lin Dong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and charged toward it.
Though not as effortlessly as Lin Fan, after a brief struggle, he too successfully stepped into the ninth floor.
"What? They actually entered the ninth floor?!"
Outside the tower, even the usually calm Master Yan cried out in disbelief.
Ziyue's eyes widened as she bit her lip hard, unsure of what she was feeling.
All around, the remaining Symbol Masters were equally dumbfounded.
To their knowledge, no one had ever reached the ninth floor of the Symbol Master Tower!
Lin Fan and Lin Dong had no idea the shock they had caused outside.
At the moment, they were surprised by what they saw.
The ninth floor was only about ten meters wide.
Dust covered the ground, and compared to the previous floors, it was dilapidated and messy.
"Take a closer look at the walls on either side. The patterns there seem a bit profound."
Lin Fan glanced around and gave Lin Dong a reminder. "But be careful not to get too drawn in."
Lin Dong nodded and carefully observed the complex markings on both walls.
Before long, he noticed something odd.
The markings weren't just random—they formed two incredibly complex and ancient sigils.
Especially the one on the left wall. As Lin Dong concentrated on it, he suddenly felt a pulling force—it almost sucked his Life Symbol out of his Niwan Palace!
"These markings... they're terrifying," Lin Dong said, his expression serious.
Lin Fan nodded slightly. "I felt it too. Especially the left one—it seems… similar to our Life Symbols."
Lin Dong's expression shifted. "Right! That same pulling force… What could they be?"
"Look over there," Lin Fan pointed to a corner of the wall.
Two faint, blurry characters were etched there:
Ancestral Symbol.
Even though the handwriting was messy, Lin Dong felt a wave of awe rise from deep within him. His Life Symbols even trembled faintly.
"Ancestral Symbols… What are they?" Lin Dong murmured.
"Between heaven and earth, Symbol Masters use spiritual power to condense Life Symbols…"
Lin Fan began explaining everything he knew about the Ancestral Symbols.
What he didn't know was that Little Marten, inside Lin Dong's mind, was also telling him the same.
In fact, Little Marten was surprised. "Your cousin sure is something. I didn't expect him to know about the Ancestral Symbols too…"
Lin Dong's eyes flickered as he responded silently,
"Brother Lin Fan has his own secrets."
Little Marten said no more.
Under his guidance, Lin Dong pressed one of his Life Symbols to the wall and was rewarded with two Ancestral Symbol maps.
Lin Dong didn't hide this from Lin Fan.
"I hope we can find them both," Lin Dong said, excited. "If we each get one, we'll both become top-tier experts in the world!"
Lin Fan smiled. "Let's find them first—then we'll talk. Come on, time to head out."
Lin Dong nodded, and the two left the ninth floor together.
As soon as they were gone, the walls engraved with the Ancestral Symbols suddenly crumbled without warning, and the sigil imprints vanished completely...
