Chapter 607: Rising Steadily

Following the thread of Lin Fan’s magical energy, these powerful book spirits surged forward, rushing in from all directions. Their mighty auras filled Lin Fan’s inner world.

“Living being, submit to me, and I shall make you invincible in this world.”

“Surrender your body to me.”

“What a powerful flesh you possess! If I could devour it, I could break free from the confines of the book and become an independent existence.”

To countless book spirits, Lin Fan’s body was a coveted treasure, desired by all.

Yet at that moment, a black beam shot into the sky. An elderly man in a black robe, emanating a dark and mysterious aura, waved his hand, and countless book spirits were instantly destroyed.

“This living being belongs to me. Who dares to take him?”

When the surrounding book spirits saw the black-robed elder, their faces turned pale with fear.

“Long live the Black Emperor! Only a mighty being like the Black Emperor can possess such a living being.”

“We were merely holding him in place so he could not escape.”

Before such an overwhelming presence, the countless book spirits involuntarily submitted, though deep inside, they were furious and resentful. But they were helpless—they could not possibly oppose the Black Emperor, who was far too powerful.

Lin Fan sat cross-legged within his inner world, his expression calm and composed, unaffected by the invasion of countless book spirits.

Everything was under Lin Fan’s control.

He hadn’t expected that luring the book spirits would attract so many powerful ones. Indeed, it was a pleasant surprise.

“Haha! Unexpectedly, this living being’s inner world is so powerful. He has passed the Heaven Tribulation of his inner world and has already achieved the Dao. If I could obtain his body, it would save me a great deal of effort,” the Black Emperor laughed arrogantly.

The other book spirits were filled with envy and resentment. Such a powerful living being was something they hadn’t encountered in centuries.

Yet now that they had, it was monopolized by the Black Emperor, leaving them not even a drop to share.

Just then, Lin Fan’s eyes suddenly snapped open.

“You book spirits—do you actually dare to possess my body?” Lin Fan gazed at the densely packed book spirits.

These spirits varied in form and emitted unique auras, each born from different books.

Great cultivators wrote their words not only to calm their minds but also to transform their negative emotions into written form, casting them away from their bodies.

Thus, these book spirits were generally embodiments of negative emotions.

“Living being, surrender your body to me, and I shall make you the supreme being in the universe,” the Black Emperor said coldly.

Lin Fan looked at the spirits and slowly shook his head. “You should obediently transform into knowledge and merge into this Emperor’s inner world.”

At that moment, Lin Fan gently raised his hand and pointed a single finger.

In an instant, the Black Emperor felt himself locked onto by an immense force, and in the blink of an eye, he was pierced through.

*Ding!* “Congratulations, reading the *Black幽True Spirit Sutra* has increased your experience by 150,000.”

When the surrounding book spirits witnessed the mighty Black Emperor being obliterated by just a single finger from Lin Fan, they screamed in terror.

“Quick, retreat! This living being is far too powerful!”

“Mercy, great master, mercy! I was only here to watch, I meant no harm!”

“Flee from here quickly, or we will all be destroyed by this living being!”

Lin Fan smiled. They had entered his inner world—how could they possibly think of leaving now?

“Since you’ve come, you might as well stay.”

With a mighty sweep of his hand, Lin Fan’s magical energy formed a colossal hand, five fingers as heavy as five great mountains, unstoppable in their crushing force.

Boom!

Boom!

With a single grasp, the void collapsed, and the book spirits exploded into fragments, transforming into a river of knowledge that flowed into Lin Fan’s inner Dao.

*Ding!* “Congratulations, reading the *Dao Burial Method* has increased your experience by 80,000.”

*Ding!* “Congratulations, reading the *Ultimate Heaven’s Will* has increased your experience by 100,000.”

*Ding!* “Congratulations, reading the *Joyful Great Chan Sutra* has increased your experience by 130,000.”

Countless spirits were slain by Lin Fan, and their insights flowed into the Dao of his inner world.

Lin Fan could clearly feel the transformation within his inner world—a change he had once thought impossible.

It was as if his inner Dao, once an illiterate fool, had, through Lin Fan’s efforts, become a highly learned scholar, overflowing with boundless knowledge.

Every word spoken carried the profound truths of heaven and earth, eloquent and flowing like dragons upon paper.

“This human has such mighty power, capable of subduing so many book spirits,” the guardian of the library said in astonishment, deeply impressed by Lin Fan’s abilities.

At the same time, he understood the sect leader’s intentions. Such a human prodigy was the hope of all races across the great cosmos.

He had seen many prodigies before, but one like Lin Fan was unheard of—something beyond imagination.

Immersed in the ocean of knowledge, Lin Fan continued to comprehend and absorb.

He knew this was a rare opportunity of a lifetime—to enter the library of a great sect like Yun Sect was a blessing earned through countless lifetimes.

If he failed to cherish it, he would surely regret it for eternity.

At this moment, knowledge surged like dragons within his inner world, all transforming into primordial energy.

Each word contained an entire world.

Books written by ancient masters contained their insights into martial cultivation.

If one could grasp them, their power would rise to the peak of existence.

Time flowed like water, unstoppable.

Lin Fan entered a state of enlightenment within his inner world, unaware of how much time had passed, but his strength continued to rise.

“Such a prodigy is a rarity of ten thousand years. To comprehend all these books in a single glance—no one would believe it even if told,” the library guardian said in awe.

He then reported this to the sect leader.

Upon hearing the news, Sect Leader Yun was astonished at first, but then smiled calmly, convinced that his judgment had been correct.

In his eyes, Lin Fan was the hope of all races across the great cosmos.

Such a prodigy, once fully grown, would be invincible in the world, unmatched by anyone.

Within the inner world, birds sang and flowers bloomed, golden lotuses sprouted from the earth, and celestial music echoed through the air. Divine spirits of profound truths floated in the void, preaching scriptures with petals raining from the sky, creating a surreal scene.

Ancient great beasts, thunder-disciplined Dharma kings, Long Xuan, Xi Guang, and others—all entered states of enlightenment.

As the inner world grew stronger, so too did their powers.

In a single day, Lin Fan comprehended countless books within the library. This force surged like a mighty dragon, endless and unceasing.

“Condense! The Law of the Dao!”

In an instant, Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, a mighty aura bursting forth. His power surged rapidly at this moment.

Within the Dao of his inner world, unprecedented laws of the Dao continuously condensed. At this moment, Lin Fan’s inner world neared perfection.

*Ding!* “Congratulations, you have leveled up.”

*Ding!* “Cultivation realm has advanced to the fourth Heaven Immortal Stage—Undying Realm.”
