Chapter 131 - Lin Ye vs Luo Feng, Unrivaled Battle Power!
Chapter 131: Lin Ye vs Luo Feng, Unrivaled Battle Power!
“Is this the Combat Monarch class that surpasses the limit of peerless talents? It doesn’t feel as difficult as what is described in the battle aura manuals.”
“Their ancestors have lied to me and I almost fell for it!”
Hearing the system’s notification, Lin Ye slowly opened his eyes and muttered to himself.
At the same time, he realized that he seemed to have changed a little too much.
He took a deep breath.
Immediately, two vague airflows guided a small number of energy particles into his body through his nose.
After advancing to the Combat Monarch class, the impurities were automatically removed from his core and the conversion into his own energy was processed quickly as well.
Battle Aura Units+0.01, Battle Aura Units+0.01…
100xReward.
Battle Aura Units+1, Battle Aura Units+1…
“This…”
“This is a little overpowered. I don’t even need to meditate. Just by breathing, I can become stronger?”
A trace of shock flashed through Lin Ye’s eyes.
This small amount of energy might not affect others much.
But who was he? The owner of 100xReward.
Breathing in a few mouthfuls of air, no matter how small the energy particles were when they were magnified a hundredfold, their cumulated effect was still not inferior to those ordinary martial artists who had to undergo closed-door cultivation and wholeheartedly immerse themselves in cultivation.
In other words, from today onwards, he would be cultivating at all times since his efficiency far surpassed all other cultivators of the same realm.
If he accidentally took another hundred million pills, he wouldn’t dare to imagine its impact. Wouldn’t he be able to grow wings and fly?
“My lord, how was it? Did you breakthrough?”
On the other side, Adelia and the others asked when they saw that Lin Ye had woken up.
Outsiders could not see the breakthroughs in cultivation. They could only seek confirmation from the person himself.
“Of course. Remember who your lord is!” Lin Ye smiled smugly. He looked at the rubble on the ground and felt a little regretful.
The outdoor balcony which was worth tens of thousands of reputation points were destroyed just like that. The quality was too poor.
Forget it. He would just buy another eight or ten of them from the shop later and keep them in his interspatial ring so that he would be able to replace them at any time.
Seeing that the others still wanted to ask more, Lin Ye waved his hand.
“Don’t ask anymore. Even I don’t have a full grasp of what’s going on. I broke through suddenly. Move aside. I can’t fully control my powers right now. Let me familiarize myself with the new power so as not to hurt you guys.”
He remembered clearly that when he broke through 12,800 potential chains, he had already lost control of his strength.
As a result, the outdoor balcony which had just come to this world for a single day was destroyed.
He did not want the same thing to happen again.
With that, he stood up after everyone left.
Gasp!
He lost control of the strength in his feet and his legs sank into the remnants of the Haunted House.
“…”
Lin Ye’s face darkened. He didn’t use any strength at all so why did his leg dig into the rubble?
He raised his leg and the soil beneath his feet exploded.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Countless gravel flew everywhere like concealed weapons, causing a commotion in the soldiers’ camp.
Fortunately, with the enhancement from the treasure snatching session, even the weakest soldier was now wearing a beginner Class 3 Purple Tier Armor, which increased his defense.
Otherwise, just these shattered rocks would be enough to injure many people.
Bang!
He moved, but his body was like a cannon and he flew outwards.
“Rumble—”
A moment later, the forest on the other side of the wasteland broke apart. Ten large trees which had the width of three people’s arm length collapsed, causing a wave of dust to rise in the air.
‘”!!!”
In the distance, the crowd looked at each other.
“This is a Class 5 expert? That’s too exaggerated!!!”
Luo Feng was dumbfounded. In terms of visual effects, when compared to Lin Ye, his father felt like a fake Class 5.
The difference in strength was too great. To say something unfilial, even though his father was a Class 5 intermediate genius, once he activated his hero-tier weapon, Blood Shadow Battle Blade, he who was only Class 4 could probably defeat three people of his father’s class. If it was a good day, he might be able to defeat five of them.
But for his lord who had yet to use his battle aura, just from his muscles, he could feel his body trembling.
Rumble!!
Meanwhile, the forest on the other side was still collapsing on a large scale. Smoke and dust swirled about, as if an archaic vicious beast was wreaking havoc inside.
“What level is the lord’s talent? A top genius? It feels a little ridiculous.”
Su Yu’s mouth twitched in disbelief.
His clan could not compare to Luo Feng’s or Tru’s.
Other than him who was considered a top genius.
Most of his parents’ generation and cousins of the same generation were not half as good as him.
“I think it’s more than that. My clan’s battle aura manual has mentioned that even the strongest peerless geniuses who can unlock 365 Potential Chains are not much stronger than us, let alone compared to our lord. The only difference is that they have more battle aura and stronger endurance.”
Luo Feng organized his words and continued, “In terms of physique, they might not be able to compare to Tru, who cultivates the zodiac battle aura. But look, does the lord seem weaker than Tru?”
“This…”
The group shut up, shock and terror evident in their eyes.
If that was the case, it could only mean one thing. Their lord was so strong that he had exceeded the limits of even peerless geniuses.
However, on second thought, everyone was extremely excited.
It was their fortune to meet an invincible monster like their lord this season.
This was not just them trying to suck up to him but sincere thoughts.
After a while, dense shadows of rods came from the forest. No, to be exact, those were spear shadows.
It was the Top Class 4 Silver Tier weapon that Lin Ye had taken away—Phoenix Spear.
There was basically no weapon dropped that was suitable for him.
After all, what he cultivated was the Great Sage’s battle aura. There were not many monkey-type combat techniques in his zodiac, so he could only use Skyward Slash.
From the name, one could tell that this battle skill made use of a staff.
However, there were no good quality staff weapons at the moment. They were too lousy.
Only this Phoenix Spear could barely be used. Its level was not bad and its power could be enhanced greatly.
Most importantly, he could also use its active skill—Hundred Birds Worshiping The Phoenix.
Similar to an AOE skill, it could produce hundreds of spear shadows and battle aura in an instant, covering all enemies within 30 meters of it.
Using the spear as a staff, he consecutively struck out more than ten Skyward Slashes.
Rumble!!!
Huge trees that reached that were sky tall broke into pieces and even exploded into pieces of wood which scattered everywhere.
“Hah—I actually f*cking caused this.”
Looking at the devastation in the forest, Lin Ye cursed inwardly. He felt a little sorry for his name.
But then again, he looked at his core in disbelief.
Before this, even when he was at the peak of Class 4, he would probably run out of battle aura after using the Skyward Staff twice.
But now, after breaking through to Class 5 and breaking through 36,500 potential chains, the situation was greatly different.
Currently, the space in his core was unimaginably large. If it was said to be a small pond at the beginning which became a small lake upon advancing to Class 4, it was a boundless ocean now.
It was precise because of this that he did not feel anything even after using Skyward Slash more than ten times.
“Looks like I have to change to a higher level combat technique.”
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes.
The Skyward Staff was merely a Black Tier battle skill after all.
Even though its power was still impressive, it could not keep up with its output capabilities.
He had a feeling that if it was a powerful move of Sky or Earth Tier, its power would be at least ten times greater.
The tycoon’s wristguard would only be useful then.
Otherwise, even if he used more than ten big moves in a row, it wouldn’t even consume half of his battle aura. He would just take the pills and be done with it.
He wouldn’t need the battle aura storage in his wrist guard to replenish it.
It was a complete waste of resources.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye put away Phoenix Spear. The golden light around his body shook and he easily blasted a path through the wreckage.
He slowly returned to the main group.
Seeing this, Tru and the others stared at him as if they were looking at a monster.
“Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?” Lin Ye touched his face and asked curiously.
“No, it’s mainly because the lord has become handsome again. Us ugly people can only look up to you.” Tru laughed and flattered.
“I like hearing these words. You should be rewarded. If I get a Level 5 Battle Aura Pill or Class 5 upgrade scroll, I’ll be the first to give it to you.” Lin Ye looked at him with admiration.
As soon as he said that, the eyes of the others lit up.
“My lord is honest and credible, generous, elegant and noble…”
“My lord is handsome, young, rich, powerful, invincible…”
“My lord has a golden spear that will not fall. He’s benevolent, invincible, brave, fearless, wise, and powerful…”
…
“You guys have good taste. Praise more when you guys can.”
Lin Ye was overjoyed when he heard those words. He pointed at Xu Que and Su Yu who were the most excited in front of him and said, “I’ll give you all one each when I get it. Each of you has a part in unlocking Class 5.”
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more intense, even scheming and petty things were about to appear.
He hurriedly stopped them. “Alright, it’s just a joke. Let’s stop here.”
“Then my lord, can you tell us how many Potential Chains did you breakthrough to become a Class 5 Combat Monarch?” Luo Feng asked. As a martial fanatic, he was fascinated by the knowledge of his realm. Moreover, after seeing his lord breakthrough, he could not help but yearn for it.
“Do you really want to hear it?”
Lin Ye looked at the curious looks thrown his way.
After some thought, he shook his head and said, “Forget it, I won’t dampen your enthusiasm.”
In the end, he even added another stab to their hearts, “I’m afraid that none of you can withstand it. Just treat me as a person with the trashiest 365 Potential Chains.”
“…”
‘”!!!”
Everyone grimaced when they heard that.
Only their invincible lord could act this way. If others dared to act like this, they would have to ask the Class 4 Silver and Class 3 Purple weapons in their hands if they agreed.
“My lord, can I spar with you?”
A moment later, Luo Feng took a step forward and said with a fanatical expression.
Since the lord did not want to say anything, he wanted to experience the gap himself.
“This, have you thought it through?” Lin Ye glanced at him and reminded him, “I’m only getting used to it now. I can’t control my strength well. If I accidentally kill you, wouldn’t I lose a lot?”
“Then I will activate the Blood God’s Possession…” Luo Feng said stubbornly.
“Well…”
Lin Ye frowned. Currently, Luo Feng was already a Class 4 Combat Saint. With the Blood God’s Possession, his strength was comparable to a genius among the Class 5.
If he used 1% of his strength, he might be able to play with him.
With this in mind, he nodded reluctantly and said, “Alright, don’t be too stubborn. If you can’t take it, just admit defeat. It’s not embarrassing.”
“…”
Luo Xing was mentally tired. He did not waste any more time and drew his blade.
Whoosh—
Blood-colored energy flowed into his body through the hilt.
Moments later, his nose and pores were constantly sucking in the blood-colored fog.
When he looked up, his eyes were like those of a monster bathed in a river of blood – eerie and terrifying.
In this state, all his attributes increased drastically and his aura exploded.
“My lord, be careful!”
The ground beneath his feet collapsed.
In the next moment, his entire body transformed into a ray of blood-red light. The back of the saber tore through the air and struck Lin Ye’s abdomen.
“Too slow.”
Unexpectedly, all of this was like an old man brandishing his sword in Lin Ye’s eyes.
Even without the use of Heart’s Web, he could still see everything clearly with his current dynamic vision.
Whoosh—
The air vibrated slightly.
Immediately after, a blinding golden light shone, making everyone’s eyes sting. They couldn’t help but close their eyes or look away.
Then, the light disappeared. The scene before them shocked everyone.
