Chapter 379: Above the Martial God
On the other side,
Lin Feng had already returned to the Chen family estate in Yunchuan.
As soon as he entered, he saw the Chen family members gathered together, looking tense and on high alert, as if facing a formidable enemy!
“What are you all doing?” Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
“Brother-in-law, where did you run off to so early in the morning? You scared us to death!”
“Exactly! We don’t know when the great shaman of the Witch Clan will return, and at such a critical moment, you just disappeared!”
Chen Yishui, Chen Qianxu, and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Lin Feng return.
Even Chen Beixuan relaxed and asked, “Lin Feng, where did you go?”
“I went to visit the Medicine King Valley,” Lin Feng replied.
In fact, there was no need for everyone to worry!
Although he had gone to the Medicine King Valley, he had left a trace of his consciousness in the Chen family estate. As long as something happened there, he would know immediately and could arrive in a very short time!
Moreover, even if he couldn’t make it back, with Xiao Lianlian’s current combat power… even if she wasn’t a match for the great shaman, she should be able to hold her own.
His daughter had grown up; it was good for her to gain more experience!
“Everything is under my control. You all should sleep and eat as usual, just keep a calm mind!”
Lin Feng said a few simple words before heading towards his room.
….
A day quickly passed!
The Chen family members, seeing that the Witch Clan’s strongmen had not arrived, all felt a great sense of relief.
However, this was followed by even greater concern!
The Nanling Mountain Range, where the Witch Clan resided, was not far from Yunchuan. A great shaman could arrive in no time!
But why had a day and a half passed without any sign of movement from the other side?
This was clearly abnormal!
It was often eerily calm before a storm!
The unknown was the most terrifying!
No one knew what horrifying events lay ahead!
……
Meanwhile.
The atmosphere in the Medicine King Valley was at its peak of tension!
Yao Simiao, Zhao Wuji, Yao Chen, and others were gathered in Hua Yunfei’s room, staring at a pile of ashes on the ground, their faces pale to the extreme!
During the day,
They had not disturbed Hua Yunfei because Lin Feng had come to discuss something with him.
As evening approached,
Not seeing Hua Yunfei come out of his room felt off, so they opened the door, only to find a pile of ashes left in the room!
The ashes were clearly the result of spiritual fire burning!
Moreover… they had seen Lin Feng use this method of erasing traces more than once before!
“Team Leader Zhao, you are from the Law Enforcement Department. Given the current situation, you should make a decision!” Yao Simiao suddenly said.
“What decision can I make? With the situation as it is, do we even need to think?” Yao Chen shook his head.
As soon as he said this, the room fell into a deathly silence again!
Although the three did not believe Lin Feng would kill Hua Yunfei,
who else could unleash such spiritual fire?
Who could silently infiltrate the Medicine King Valley and kill Academician Hua without anyone noticing?
Aside from Lin Feng,
they couldn’t think of anyone else!
“Lin Feng saved Academician Hua; why would he want to kill him? This is clearly abnormal. I need to report this to the higher-ups…”
Zhao Wuji felt a chill run down his spine!
To save Hua Yunfei,
they had paid a hefty price!
But just as they were about to see Hua Yunfei recover and return to Kyoto to report, he ended up dead!
….
Meanwhile, at the Kyoto headquarters.
The Minister of the Law Enforcement Department, Situ Yunxiao, the War Department’s Zhan Tianhu, and the Military Department’s Long Shuai were sitting around a tea table, enjoying their tea…
Recently, there had been a series of joyous events.
Not only had they thwarted the Dragon-slaying Plan, but they had also confirmed the territorial rights of many islands in the East China Sea!
Some cabinet ministers from the Japanese government visited Xia, and upon seeing them, they were extremely obsequious, not daring to make a sound. Even the Americans had been quiet lately…
“All of this is thanks to Lin Feng!”
“Our Great Xia is fortunate to have a talent like Lin Feng!”
Long Shuai said with a smile as he took a sip of Longjing tea.
“We should invite Lin Feng to Kyoto soon and have a few drinks with us old fellows!”
Zhan Tianhu also wore a smile.
Situ Yunxiao looked at his two old friends’ proud expressions and couldn’t help but find it amusing.
He shook his head and said, “Finding Lin Feng to reminisce can wait; our immediate priority is to consider the situation in Central Asia.”
“Things have not been peaceful in Central Asia lately. The once-in-a-century West Sea Secret Realm is about to open, and many domestic and foreign forces are eyeing it…”
“There’s a rumor circulating that this will be the last opening of the West Sea Secret Realm, and it’s said to be rich in opportunities, possibly containing soul-nurturing spiritual items…”
Upon hearing these words,
Long Shuai, Zhan Tianhu, and the others narrowed their eyes.
The Earth is vast!
Not only are there many remote places, but there are also numerous ancient secret realms…
These secret realms are filled with great opportunities,
and every time they appear, they attract powerful figures from various countries to compete…
In previous competitions,
due to the schemes of many countries across the ocean, Great Xia suffered heavy losses. Therefore, the news of the West Sea Secret Realm spread like wildfire, and they couldn’t help but worry…
At that moment,
Zhao Wuji called Situ Yunxiao and recounted the situation regarding Hua Yunfei!
“What!”
Situ Yunxiao immediately stood up from his seat, his expression dark and uncertain…
“What happened?”
Long Shuai asked.
“Hua Yunfei is dead! The prime suspect is Lin Feng!”
Situ Yunxiao repeated what Zhao Wuji had just told him, his tone heavy.
As soon as he said this,
Long Shuai, Zhan Tianhu, and the others all narrowed their pupils…
……
A night passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Feng woke up from his meditation, feeling refreshed!
After his conversation with Hua Yunfei yesterday,
his mind had become much clearer…
All things in the world must be viewed through the surface of prosperity to understand their internal essence; only then can one grasp the meaning within.
Cultivating immortality is the same…
Understanding the Dao, what is the Dao?
In simple terms, the Dao is the essence of heaven and earth. When you can see through all essences and comprehend the great Dao, you become an immortal!
Of course,
from Lin Feng’s current realm of six times refining the Nascent Soul, he was still far from the so-called enlightenment and ascension, but being able to gain some insights in advance was certainly beneficial!
“Hua Yunfei was indeed a remarkable person, but like Yinuo, he was born with blocked meridians, unable to cultivate immortality or martial arts!”
Lin Feng sighed.
He glanced at Yinuo, who was still asleep, then headed to the Chen family’s training ground, intending to take advantage of this rare free time to guide the Chen family’s martial artists!
“Son-in-law!”
“Son-in-law!”
The many martial artists of the Chen family showed respect and admiration upon seeing Lin Feng’s arrival.
In the eyes of all the Chen family members,
Lin Feng was an omnipotent existence!
No matter the situation or crisis, as long as Lin Feng was present, they felt inexplicably at ease!
This had almost become a form of faith!
“You all practice as you wish; if you have any questions, feel free to ask me!”
Lin Feng found a spot and sat cross-legged.
The crowd was overjoyed at this, knowing the opportunity was rare, and they rushed forward to ask questions…
Although Lin Feng had never practiced martial arts, he could easily answer their questions!
The gap between them was too vast,
like a college student doing kindergarten problems—there was simply no difficulty at all!
At this moment,
his sister-in-law Chen Yishui playfully shook Lin Feng’s arm and asked,
“Brother-in-law, what are the levels of martial arts?”
“The levels of martial arts are Yellow Realm, Xuan Realm, Earth Realm, Postnatal, Innate, Grandmaster, Martial Soul, Martial Saint, Martial God…”
“What about above Martial God?”
Chen Yishui continued to ask.
The others also looked on with curiosity.
For them in the past,
the Grandmaster realm was already an impressive existence!
Only after Lin Feng appeared did they realize there were so many powerful realms above the Grandmaster realm!
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng began to ponder.
He had specifically asked his third senior brother about the realms above Martial God, but the answer he received was not very clear…
According to what his third senior brother said,
the depletion of spiritual energy in heaven and earth led to the absence of spiritual roots!
A remarkably talented immortal cultivator created a martial path that did not require spiritual roots…
Since the creation of martial arts,
it had been over two thousand years…
Yet the strongest known martial artist had only broken through to the peak of Martial God…
In other words,
no one had ever reached the realm above Martial God!
This seemed to be the bottleneck of martial arts…
The so-called becoming an immortal through martial arts was merely a gimmick…
Even the several immortal families of Kunlun did not have anyone above Martial God; their ancient ancestors were all great beings from the pre-Qin period, not martial artists…
