Chapter 41 – Lin Mofeng's Shock! The Sword God Senior Is Truly Unfathomable!

“What!?”

Upon hearing this, Elder Li’s expression changed drastically. He instinctively slammed the table.

Bang!

The precious sandalwood table instantly shattered into pieces!

Tea splashed across the room, pastries and snacks scattering all over the floor.

Li Zixuan and Lin Mofeng, standing nearby, were both startled by this. They exchanged uneasy glances, not daring to utter another word.

Without a doubt, Elder Li was truly enraged.

Just yesterday, he had issued strict orders to guard the stone tablet vigilantly, forbidding anyone from approaching it.

Yet, early this morning, such vandalism had occurred.

This was a direct slap to his face!

“Who? Who did this!?”

Elder Li’s face darkened. In one swift motion, he strode to the door, pulled it open, and barked at the approaching security director.

Boom!

As he spoke, a terrifying pressure descended upon the director, crushing him like Mount Tai. The man immediately collapsed to the ground, trembling.

“I… I don’t know either… Elder Li…”

“This morning, when we went to check, we found someone had… carved… carved words on it…”

He stammered, terrified that Elder Li might strike him dead with a single palm at any moment.

“Teacher… please calm down first.”

Seeing this, Li Zixuan stepped forward and spoke softly, “Let’s go to the scene and assess the situation first.”

“Shimei makes a good point. Teacher, please don’t be angry.”

Lin Mofeng chimed in from the side, though he too felt displeased.

After all, this was a gift he had presented to his alma mater.

Yet, before the junior students could even get a proper look at it, it had been defaced on the very next day. It was truly infuriating.

But, restrained by his proper upbringing, he suppressed his irritation and advised Elder Li:

“The three of us should go examine the stone tablet first. If the damage isn’t severe, I can repair it directly.”

Hearing this,

Elder Li, who had been standing at the door, realized he had lost his composure.

Huff!

He closed his eyes and exhaled a heavy, turbid breath.

Only after suppressing the rage in his heart did he help the security chief up from the ground, saying:

“What happened today is a major failure of your security department! I will settle this account with you all later. For now… come with me to inspect the damage to the stone tablet.”

“Y-yes… Thank you, Elder Li.”

The security director stammered, then led the way ahead.

Elder Li, hunched over with his hands behind his back, followed, his expression still grim. Li Zixuan and Lin Mofeng walked closely on either side of him.

The group descended and headed straight for the Martial Arts Plaza.

From a distance, they could see the plaza crowded with people, all whispering and chattering noisily.

“The Dean is here! Everyone, make way!”

“How despicable! Who would dare to deface the stone tablet like this? This is utterly unacceptable!”

“Ah, we finally had a Grandmaster-level technique, and I barely had time to glance at it before it was ruined like this…”

Sighs reached Elder Li’s ears,

further aggravating his already foul mood and disturbing his Dao heart.

“Everyone, silence!!”

Elder Li roared suddenly, his voice thundering across the entire Martial Arts Plaza, instantly stunning everyone into stillness.

Silence fell.

Countless eyes focused on Elder Li, but not a single sound could be heard.

The crowd parted to both sides, clearing a wide path.Elder Li strode through the crowd with his hands clasped behind his back, quickly reaching the stone tablet. He anxiously examined the carvings on its surface, his heart immediately sinking like a stone.

Just as he feared!

Compared to yesterday, numerous new markings had appeared on the stone tablet. Someone had presumptuously added characters to the cultivation art without authorization—like drawing legs on a snake!

This lawless act clearly showed no respect for Jianghai Martial Arts Academy.

If word got out, the entire Jianghai City would laugh at their Martial Arts Academy.

“Investigate! Launch an investigation immediately!” Elder Li’s temples bulged with veins, his chest burning with fury as he spat out each word through gritted teeth. “I will find that little beast and drag him out myself!”

His words still hung in the air.

“Wait… Teacher.”

Lin Mofeng suddenly stepped forward, sensing the Star Power on the stone tablet more closely. He said in astonishment, “These carvings on the tablet… seem somewhat unusual…”

“Hmm?”

Elder Li looked at him in confusion. “What do you mean, Mo Feng?”

“Please wait, Teacher. Let me examine this carefully.”

As he spoke, Lin Mofeng moved closer, releasing his Star Power to cover the stone tablet for deeper perception.

But the moment his energy made contact, his expression changed dramatically—shock, bewilderment, then an incredulous look appeared on his face as he murmured:

“How is this possible… My Star Power has vanished!”

Upon the stone tablet now,

What remained was an extremely sharp Sword Intent radiating from its surface.

Lin Mofeng’s expression shifted drastically as he sensed the Sword Intent, his body trembling slightly from pure instinct.

The mere residual Sword Intent was enough to prove one thing:

The person who made these carvings possessed terrifying strength and had achieved a transcendent understanding of the Sword Dao, far beyond his own comprehension!

Meanwhile, Elder Li also began to calm down.

The sudden situation had momentarily clouded his judgment.

Now, carefully sensing the tablet, he too detected the overwhelming, sharp Sword Intent surging from it, its aura pressing down on them.

“Eh? What’s going on with the content of this cultivation art?”

At that moment, Lin Mofeng made a surprised sound, his gaze fixed on the tablet’s content as he noticed more anomalies.

Currently, the incomplete portions he had previously carved remained completely untouched. The mysterious carver had only filled in additional blank spaces with new content.

But…

Why would they do this?

The thought sent a chill down Lin Mofeng’s spine as a terrifying possibility emerged in his mind!

Could it be that person had completed the Grandmaster-level cultivation art!?

“Impossible… Absolutely impossible!”

One must understand—this was a Grandmaster-level Star Power Art!

The difficulty of completing a Grandmaster-level art was immense; even spending over a decade might not guarantee success.

Not even the highly respected senior professors in the Imperial Capital would lightly attempt such a feat.

So how could such a powerful figure possibly appear in this small Jianghai City?!

However.

Next, Lin Mofeng adopted a skeptical attitude and attempted to circulate his True Essence according to the newly added steps on the tablet.

The result?

Perfectly smooth without any obstruction. His True Essence flowed through his meridians seamlessly, naturally harmonious as if heaven-made!

Facts don’t lie.

Staring blankly at the stone tablet, Lin Mofeng felt his worldview suffering a tremendous impact!

“That person… really completed the cultivation art, Teacher…”

Lin Mofeng choked up, murmuring to himself.

At this moment.His Dao Heart was shattered…

A fragmented cultivation technique that had been lost for a thousand years was actually completed with ease overnight!

This was truly unprecedented.

What kind of person could possess such heaven-defying methods?!

“What?!”

Beside him, Elder Li was equally astonished upon hearing this.

As he and Li Zixuan stepped forward together to sense the Sword Intent upon it, they suddenly realized it felt somewhat familiar.

“This is… the Sword Intent of our senior! It was our senior who completed it!”

Elder Li raised his white eyebrows and exclaimed in shock, immediately understanding everything.

Beside him, Li Zixuan also grasped the implication, her face instantly filled with admiration and her eyes sparkling with excitement.

Teacher, as expected of you!
