Permanent Martial Arts

“Lin Feng…”

Yu Shan took a step forward, prepared to fight alongside Lin Feng.

However, Lin Feng shook his head and said, “Yu Shan, stay at the side for now. Your body has yet to undergo a complete metamorphosis. Now is not the time for you to fight. Watch Zhang Hui and don’t let him escape. If there’s a chance, kill Zhang Hui.”

Yu Shan nodded. He was also very helpless. Although he had just broken the genetic lock, he could not interfere in such a battle at all. He was not even a match for either of the inhumans from two generations of the Zhang family just now.

The only thing he could do was watch Zhang Hui. He could even kill Zhang Hui himself if he had the chance!

fiseeing the battle intent exuding from Lin Feng, a cold smile appeared on Captain Xie’s lips. How many years had it been? Even if he had never gone to the battlefield, the gap between the third level of the Metamorphic Realm and the first level of the Metamorphic Realm was unimaginable. It was difficult to bridge the gap between the two realms no matter how talented one was.

Hence, Captain Xie said to the other vice-captain, “Look after Zhang Hui and don’t let anything happen to him. Leave Lin Feng to

me.”

“All right, but Captain Xie, you have to be careful too. This Lin Feng has just obtained the Hero of Humanity Medal. Make it quick and subdue him as soon as possible, lest something unexpected happens.”

Of course Captain Xie knew this principle. He did not even intend to hold back and planned to subdue Lin Feng as quickly as possible.

“You are very talented. There is even a chance that you can break the genetic lock again in the future, undergo a second life transition, and become a Divine Realm expert. However, this is definitely not the time!”

Astral Power flickered on Captain Xie body, and he suddenly reached out and made a grabbing motion.

Buzz.

A huge hand appeared out of nowhere and enveloped towards Lin Feng with its vastness. Even from afar, Lin Feng could sense the terrifying power contained in this huge palm.

Withdrawn Astral Power! His opponent could already draw Astral Power out of his body. The Astral Power in his body had definitely reached the limit of the third level of the Metamorphic Realm, granting him 9,999 strands of Astral Power!

Y

Astral Power was a miraculous power. When it erupted in the body, it could instantly strengthen one’s physique, strength, agility, and so on. It could improve a martial artist’s physical conditions in almost all aspects.

The more Astral Power there was, the more explosive it would be.

If the Astral Power was drawn from the body, it could also be used for individual offenses, and could be used for long-range offenses. However, the consumption of Astral Power was a little too much. Ordinary first level and second level martial artists would not attack by withdrawing Astral Power, as the consumption was too great to withstand.

Lin Feng felt a tremendous pressure. Just this palm completely condensed from Astral Power alone was enough for Lin Feng to estimate that there must be a thousand strands of Astral Power.

A thousand of strands of Astral Power—that was equivalent to the strongest attack equivalent of a Second level Metamorphic Realm martial artist!

Without any hesitation, Lin Feng immediately growled, “Armor!”

Immediately, a layer of cuticle armor quickly covered Lin Feng’s entire body. The streamlined armor, in addition to a layer of something soft, and a few bone spikes on his shoulder, gave Lin Feng an enigmatic appearance.

However, this was not the end. The Spiral Forces in Lin Feng’s body erupted again.

“Three Spiral Forces!”

When the three Spiral Forces erupted, more than 1,400 tons of strength followed Lin Feng’s punch. Even people far away could feel the suffocating power.

In the void, a palm the size of a basketball court descended from the sky. Lin Feng, on the other hand, was like a god of war. Donned in armor, he threw a punch. The violent force almost set off a storm.

Boom.

Lin Feng felt as if he was about to suffocate. The Astral Palm was completely condensed from Astral Power. The eruption of more than a thousand strands of Astral Power was terrifying. Even a building could be easily shattered by it.

However, this huge palm did not intend to strike Lin Feng to death. Instead, it clenched hard, intending to grab Lin Feng completely. Lin Feng’s over 1,400 tons of strength was so insignificant and powerless before the Astral Palm. He was like an insect facing the vast starry sky. How could they be compared? The crushing force from all directions almost suffocated Lin Feng. His entire body stiffened. He had actually been trapped with a single strike. As the Astral Palm continued to shrink, he would be completely trapped sooner or later.

Captain Xie shook his head and said, “Your strength is very, very powerful. It’s very rare for pure physical strength to reach your level. You must have cultivated Lord Invincible Fist Sage’s Nonuple Body Tempering, right? Your innate abilities are not bad either. You must have awakened more than one innate ability.

“I really envy you. You’re so talented. There’s a high chance that you’ll be able to break the genetic lock again in the future. However, you’ve taken the wrong path. No matter how powerful your physical strength is, how can it be stronger than the power of the cosmos? Astral Power is the foundation of martial artists like us! Even Nonuple Body Tempering is just a failed martial art by Lord Invincible Fist Sage. So what if you master it to the highest level?”

Captain Xie seemed to be very relaxed. The large hand condensed from Astral Power grabbed Lin Feng at one go.

However, his “lecture” made Lin Feng scoff.

“Whether my path is wrong or not is not something you can judge. Who said that physical strength is weak? Moreover, your Astral Power is far from the level of the cosmos. Watch me break your Astral Palm!”

Lin Feng knew that this Astral Palm should be Captain Xie’s Astral martial arts.

Lin Feng did not purchase any Astral martial arts, because he could not use them for the time being. He was more concerned about his physical strength. Unfortunately, he had just purchased the last six levels of Nonuple Body Tempering, and had not had the time to cultivate them either.

Otherwise, with nine times of his physical strength erupting, Lin Feng would be able to easily break through this mere Astral Palm!

However, so what if there wasn’t the next six levels of Nonuple Body Tempering?

Lin Feng extended his hand. His fist seemed to be covered in a strange substance, and then sharp horns grew out.

“Sharp Horn!”

This was the first time Lin Feng had used the Sharp Horn. Lin Feng had tested it before. The Sharp Horn was indestructible. It could break through anything or any power easily. In reality, it was more terrifying than any divine weapon. This was also why Lin Feng did not even bring his saber. Weapons were ultimately separate possessions from himself, and could not be relied on too much. Only by relying on one’s own strength could one be invincible.

“Break!”

Lin Feng’s physical strength erupted, and three Spiral Forces erupted. The Sharp Horn on his fist flashed with a trace of golden light. Borrowing the powerful force that Lin Feng instantly unleashed, he smashed hard into the huge Astral Palm.

“It’s useless. You don’t know how powerful Astral Power is. What’s the use of mere physical strength? You can’t escape from my Astral Palm.”

Captain Xie appeared very calm. In order to exchange for the Astral Palm martial art, he had saved merit value for up to a total of 20 years before successfully exchanging it.

With this Astral martial art in the form of Astral Palm, he could be considered relatively powerful even among Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists. Wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for him to deal with Lin Feng, a mere first level Metamorphic Realm martial artist who had yet to even complete his metamorphosis? Lin Feng was unmoved. When he used all his strength to punch the Astral Palm, the Sharp Horn paused for a moment, but then it tore through the Astral Palm like a drill.

Boom.

The Astral Palm dissipated, and vast Astral Power surged in all directions. Wherever it passed, everything along the way was swept through by Astral Power. The huge villa district seemed to have turned into a construction site in shambles all of a sudden.

The expression of the initially confident and nonchalant Captain Xie froze.
