Chapter 1520 - 825: Test
Lin Feng finished eating, and the Han Family Head instructed the servants to clear the table. He then said to Lin Feng, "Nephew, take a look at this Cold River Scroll."
This is one of the Han Family’s favorite ways to test young talents, by using the Cold River Scroll to assess a person’s potential.
Because the Cold River Scroll contains recorded martial arts mastery from the Han ancestor, the Cold Ice Palm, and if one can grasp even a single move, they are considered a young and talented individual.
Lin Feng glanced at the Cold River Scroll and instantly witnessed the ever-flowing Yangtze River. As it surged forward, he saw a hand covering the Yangtze River, and suddenly, the flowing river stopped. Visible frost floated on the river surface, with the frigid air stopping the river’s flow. This was not a mere freeze but an ice seal that reached the riverbed, extinguishing all life and absorbing all business, embodying a martial technique of extinction.
"This palm is called Ice Seal Thousand Miles, also known as Cold Ice Destroying World Palm." The faint words appeared, spoken by the Han ancestor back then.
The Han Family Head looked at Lin Feng with some astonishment, not expecting that upon contact with the Cold River Scroll, Lin Feng entered a state of sudden enlightenment, seemingly with many insights.
"Indeed, a disciple of the Star-Gazing Pavilion, someone whom Yan er took a liking to, undoubtedly has great potential; this insight is unmatched." The Han Family Head sighed.
The Cold River Scroll has previously tested many young talents, such as Yan Chong, who combined his family’s martial arts with his insights to create the Ice Seal Finger, which was already considered outstanding.
As soon as Lin Feng touched the Cold River Scroll, he entered sudden enlightenment and might comprehend even more.
In truth, this was all brought to Lin Feng by the Longevity Technique, amplifying his innate wisdom.
At this moment, Lin Feng opened his eyes, revealing a hint of extinction in them. His martial arts were predominantly of the Thunder Fire type, although not significant, he wanted to cultivate the Ice Element, but it wasn’t possible. Therefore, Lin Feng only embraced its extinction intent, gaining a Profound Level martial technique, the Extinction Palm, which embodies a martial technique of extinction. This is considered the Peak of Profound Level martial techniques, and as Lin Feng progresses on the path of extinction, this palm technique will also continue to grow.
It’s indeed a palm technique with boundless potential.
"How was your understanding, nephew?" asked the Han Family Head.
"I have gleaned some insights and comprehended a martial art, named Extinction Palm," Lin Feng said indifferently.
"Extinction Palm?" The Han Family Head muttered, evidently extremely pleased with Lin Feng’s comprehension.
But Hua Shengmi scoffed and said, "Seems that your future father-in-law can’t count, huh?"
"Why say that?" Ye Feng replied casually.
"The world’s Dao is revered by ten Daos: Chaos, Creation, Cause and Effect, Time, Convergence, Order, Chaos, Illusion, and Creation. The Profound Level martial technique you comprehended contains a hint of extinction intent, which is the convergence, more precious than some Earth Rank martial techniques, yet your father-in-law pays no mind."
"First, let me say this: he is not my father-in-law, he’s simply my uncle," Lin Feng said calmly.
"Alright, not father-in-law, uncle then," Hua Shengmi said disdainfully.
By now, the Han Family Head was extremely satisfied, having comprehended a set of Profound Level martial techniques, which was quite impressive. Even Yan Chong only comprehended a lower-level Profound Level martial technique, unknown to what level Lin Feng’s comprehension was.
However, looking at Lin Feng’s demeanor, it should be of a high level, which put the Han Family Head at ease.
With great aptitude, prestigious background, and somewhat connected with his daughter, such a son-in-law was rare even by lantern light, making the Han Family Head delighted.
The Han Family Head signaled the old butler standing by to quickly inform his wife, to come and see the son-in-law.
"Nephew, how old are you this year?" the Han Family Head politely asked.
"Eighteen," Lin Feng replied casually.
"Not bad. A woman three years older is like holding a gold brick. Seems you’ll hold three," the Han Family Head muttered to himself, which was also the reason why the Han Family Head was in such a hurry. His daughter Han Yan was already twenty-eight, almost thirty, and although his daughter was exceedingly beautiful, he didn’t want her to become an old maid. Now there was finally a suitable son-in-law candidate, although a bit young, it would do.
Let’s just call it a sister-brother romance.
The Han Family Head thought, and his gaze towards Lin Feng held a bit of affection.
Lin Feng naturally understood the Han Family Head’s intentions, but regarding Han Yan, he also had a slight, ambiguous fondness, thus did not mind.
After all, it wasn’t stated explicitly.
At this time, a beautiful woman walked in, her eyes lit up upon seeing Lin Feng. The woman’s appearance was similar to Han Yan, clearly indicating they were mother and daughter.
"This is your aunt," the Han Family Head introduced.
Han’s mother then thoroughly inspected Lin Feng, and the old butler had already apprised her of Lin Feng. Particularly upon hearing that he had understood the Extinction Palm, a Profound Level martial technique, Han’s mother felt reassured, understanding that this could potentially be her future son-in-law.
"Hello, Aunt Han," Lin Feng said politely.
Han’s mother nodded with great satisfaction, although Lin Feng wasn’t particularly handsome, after cultivating the Longevity Technique, he exuded a certain aura, diverting attention from his appearance. Thus, Lin Feng was a handsome man of charm.
