Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 149: Chapter 131: Demon Fiend (Part 2)

As long as the cultivation technique isn’t too advanced, it usually takes regular students no more than two to three months, but martial skills are different.

Four months to successfully cultivate a Thunder Attribute cultivation technique and simultaneously learn two Third Grade martial skills. Even the well-informed Bu Zheng had never heard of such an extraordinary feat.

Four months?

He wouldn’t believe it even if it were a year.

In Bu Zheng’s opinion, even for a martial arts genius, it would take two years.

”No, there’s no record online or with the education bureau,” the instructor who just checked shook his head.

”However, before the national exams, Lin Feng had already completed the Twenty-First Technique of the Thirty-Six Body Refining Techniques, refining the Five Viscera and Six Bowels. This is something only many Fourth Grade martial artists can achieve.”

The instructor reminded.

Bu Zheng nodded, he knew this too; it was also reported in the news back then, causing a huge sensation.

The media speculated that it was precisely Lin Feng’s extraordinary ability to control his body that allowed him to outperform his peers in the Thirty-Six Body Refining Techniques, his Qi and blood were abundant, his cultivation speed naturally swift, and he possessed extraordinary combat talent.

”This kid is simply a demon fiend!” an instructor exclaimed.

Even without refining a demon spirit, with just these two Third Grade martial skills, Lin Feng was already a match for anyone.

A Demon Spirit Master is superior to a martial artist because once a demon spirit is refined, its innate skills become deeply imprinted on the refiner’s body and soul, becoming an instinct that can be easily used without learning.

For a martial artist to learn martial skills, they must spend a large amount of time and resources, from as little as a year to as many as decades; this is the fundamental difference and gap between the two.

At Red Cloud University, students in the Martial Arts Academy focus on martial arts, so practical combat and martial skills are compulsory courses, and before graduation, students usually master three to four martial skills.

At the Demon Spirit Academy, the focus is primarily on nurturing demon spirits, and although martial skill cultivation is included, due to the considerable time expense, students typically only learn one martial skill.

Those who are slow in speed focus on body techniques.

Those with weak attacks train combat skills.

Even those from great families, with exceptional talent and abundant resources, at most learn two types: one body technique and one combat skill.

With Lin Feng’s demon-fiend-like martial arts talent, his speed in learning martial skills is several times or even ten times faster than an average person.

Now still in his freshman year and a First Grade martial artist, Lin Feng knows two martial skills; by the time he graduates, how many martial skills will he have mastered?

Ten, or even a dozen?

For Demon Spirit Masters, although mastering an innate skill is instinctive and doesn’t require learning, no matter how high the demon spirit’s level, even Earth Chart demon spirits only have one innate ability. To acquire a second innate skill, the demon spirit must grow, advance, and fuse with other demon spirits to have a second skill, which is the soul skill, and its success rate is not certain.

To some extent, martial skills are equivalent to a demon spirit’s innate skills.

For example, the innate skill ”Golden Transformation” of the Golden Lion King refined by Yun Kai has a similar effect to the Ninth Grade martial skill ”Vajra Unbreakable.”

Of course, generally speaking, martial skills are perhaps slightly weaker in terms of power compared to demon spirit innate skills.

Even if someone learns the Ninth Grade martial skill ”Vajra Unbreakable,” achieving the same effect as Yun Kai’s ”Golden Transformation” would take at least decades and vast resources.

However, quality compensates for quantity, and if Lin Feng truly learns several dozen martial skills and can use them proficiently, even without refining a demon spirit, he wouldn’t be inferior to anyone.

If one day, he successfully refines an advanced demon spirit, with over ten martial skills paired with demon spirit innate skills, not even Yun Kai could compare!

”Now, should there be anyone doubting my martial arts talent?”

Lin Feng glanced around, thinking quietly to himself.

At this moment, he commanded the stage, becoming the focus of all eyes.

This feeling was indeed captivating, but Lin Feng remained remarkably clear-minded.

What he sought was not applause.

If not to prevent others from spying, proving his demon-fiend-like martial arts talent, he wouldn’t even want to steal the spotlight.

As for the two Third Grade martial skills, they were nothing to Lin Feng, who in a previous life was an Eighth Grade martial artist; if not for limited spiritual power, he could perform even higher martial skills.

”Demon fiend!”

In mid-air, Yun Yong occasionally flapped his wings, gazing silently at the light curtain for a long time.

At this time, he seemed to understand why Yun Kai, with his ancestral demonization talent, would willingly stand behind Lin Feng.

A few minutes ago, he was planning to talk to Lin Feng, leveraging the foundation of the Extraordinary Race, to make Lin Feng realize the gap with Yun Kai, and give up knowing the difficulties, but now this idea had vanished without a trace.

It was still uncertain who would be the boss, but even without refining a demon spirit, Lin Feng had the qualifications to be a teammate with Yun Kai.

And in the audience.

”Elder Zhang, do you still doubt Lin Feng’s talent and strength?”

Jiang Jun was trembling with excitement.

And Elder Zhang, who originally didn’t think much of Lin Feng, couldn’t hide his surprise at the moment.

”Alright, I agree.”

Elder Zhang resolved decisively.

Even if Lin Feng had not yet refined a demon spirit, he was willing to offer an exceptionally lucrative contract.

All-Star Player!

Wind-Grabbing should indeed have its own All-Star Player!

Under everyone’s gaze, Lin Feng slowly walked towards the First Throne, Deng Chen was indifferent, Ye Ming took a slight step, his expression a bit peculiar, though shocked by Lin Feng’s talent, he was unwilling to give up.

”Having used Thunder Step and Thunderstorm Strike, his spiritual power must be nearly depleted!”

Having just broken through as a martial artist, with limited spiritual power, if without the support of martial skills, even with strong body techniques, Lin Feng wouldn’t be a match for the three of them.

Just as Ye Ming intended to make a move, he suddenly noticed the two team members beside him; one directly shook his head, while the other, though not responding, exhibited obvious fear. Seeing this, Ye Ming hesitated for a moment, let out a sigh, and in the end, could only give up reluctantly.

Lin Feng was too strong, and too ruthless!

In Deng Chen’s team, one had his throat sealed with a single sword, another had his left chest pierced, both of whom could have claimed a seat, only to be directly eliminated by him.

Moreover, Bai Ji was on the side watching covetously, indeed not a good time to act.

”Hmm...”

When Lin Feng was two meters from the First Throne, he suddenly stopped. Purple arcs of electricity flickered across his body, and a tiny, sesame-sized insect, barely visible to the naked eye, was reduced to ash. Lin Feng turned, looking in one direction.

”Hehe, just a joke....”

Bai Ji waved his hand, laughing, appearing somewhat erratic.

Lin Feng didn’t respond, but felt a chill in his heart.

If not for his spiritual power greatly surpassing his peers and his acute senses, that little insect might very well have flown into his ear.

A poisonous insect controlled by a Poison Beast Master entering the body, the outcome is imaginable.

That Bai Ji had just proposed teaming up with him, and when he truly made a move, he just watched coldly, seizing the chance to attack.

He remembered this.

”Wind God!”

”First!”

Amidst the stormy cheers, Lin Feng slowly seated himself on the First Throne, preemptively declaring to everyone that he was the King of this throne challenge competition.
