Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1287 - 1285: It turns out to be...

"Boom!"

A powerful bolt of lightning struck down, deepening the bottomless pit once more. As the lightning faded, suddenly, a water column several meters thick shot into the sky, reaching a height of several meters in an instant. It was like a fountain had erupted from the ground!

This... this is?

So... so that’s what it is...

Lin Feng actually used this method...

...

The people around finally understood what Lin Feng was doing at this moment. It turned out that Lin Feng was using the lightning to blast open a massive hole in the ground, causing the underground water to erupt and eventually flood the area. In this way, he had literally created an artificial lake!

In an instant, they were completely stunned, each one standing there like a wooden statue. They already knew Lin Feng was formidable, even unparalleled, but none of them had expected that he could manipulate natural lightning to achieve such a feat. They couldn’t help but admit that Lin Feng was too defiant of the natural order—this level of ingenuity and power was unfathomable to others, yet Lin Feng made it look so effortless. Was this his true power? It was simply unbelievable!

As the water column emerged, Lin Feng waved his hand, dispersing the dark clouds above. Meanwhile, the water column on the ground expanded from just a few meters in diameter to over ten meters in mere moments. The column gradually receded, and they could see the water level rapidly rising at an astonishing speed...

Witnessing this, everyone present was deeply awed by Lin Feng’s displayed strength. Achieving something like this by harnessing the natural forces of heaven and earth was unheard of. Yet Lin Feng accomplished it effortlessly. Even those who knew Lin Feng well couldn’t have imagined witnessing such a miraculous event without seeing it with their own eyes!

They couldn’t help but marvel inwardly—if Lin Feng could even accomplish this, then was there anything in the world he couldn’t do? Especially Jack, whose eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He thought Lin Feng’s previous battle had already been terrifying, but now he realized Lin Feng hadn’t been using his full power earlier. Jack couldn’t stop wondering, just how powerful was Lin Feng? Or could it be that Lin Feng was the reincarnation of God himself? Otherwise, how could he achieve feats that others wouldn’t even dare to dream of?

Glancing at the massive water-filled pit below, Lin Feng evaluated the water’s rising speed, nodded slightly, and in a blur of motion appeared next to Ding Wan’er. He said to her: "Things outside have already blown up. Though there’s a formation concealing this place, what happened here is just too shocking. You should head out and handle the situation. Representing the university, it’s best if you step forward. Don’t say too much—just tell them we were urgently creating a lake using explosions. By tomorrow morning, this place should already look like a lake."

In truth, Lin Feng didn’t want Ding Wan’er to leave, but through his Divine Sense, he had already detected several interview vans from Yingbo University arriving, with another dozen or so en route. Under these circumstances, he had no choice but to let Ding Wan’er handle the situation.

"Alright, leave it to me, don’t worry." Ding Wan’er nodded immediately upon hearing Lin Feng’s words and promptly left the area. Soon after, Zhu Tao also nodded to Lin Feng, transformed into a yellow blur, and followed closely behind her.

Once everything was dealt with, Lin Feng turned to the others and said: "Let’s head back. There’s nothing left to do here."

After speaking, Lin Feng led the group away...

......

After all the chaos, the night had grown late. Everyone went home to rest while Lin Feng sat alone on the couch, contemplating. He was thinking about where he could find materials to construct a small world. Recently, there had been too many battles here—if this continued, the students’ studies would be affected.

As Lin Feng pondered these matters, Chu Meng casually walked up to him and sat down beside him.

"Junior Brother, today I finally realized how useful and powerful cultivators truly are. It seems I need to focus on cultivation too; otherwise, it’ll be disastrous if I encounter danger in the future." Chu Meng smiled at Lin Feng while speaking her mind.

For some time now, Ding Wan’er had been urging her sisters to focus on cultivation, but Chu Meng hadn’t taken it seriously. However, today’s events had given her much food for thought. If she and her sisters were powerful enough to aid Lin Feng, they wouldn’t have had to resort to watching the battle from afar with binoculars.

"Indeed, cultivation is very useful. Cultivators have unique strengths in many areas, and the most important benefit is that cultivation can extend life." Lin Feng nodded and smiled in response. He had already discussed this matter with the women around him. As he often said, he didn’t want to walk the path of cultivation alone.

"So, what about mechs? What’s your opinion on mechs?" Chu Meng asked suddenly, looking at Lin Feng.

"Mechs can achieve considerable power too. It’s another avenue of pursuing strength, with diverse branches to explore—like today’s mechanical mechs, biological mechs, skeletal-powered mechs, and so on. But if the goal is to make mechs comparable to true cultivators, current technology won’t suffice." Lin Feng offered his balanced judgment. Though mechs could be quite powerful, their growth potential was fundamentally limited compared to cultivation.

"Why wouldn’t it suffice? Current technology is already highly advanced. With a top-tier research team, couldn’t we create mechs far surpassing those from today?" Chu Meng pressed further.

"Developing stronger mechs is feasible, but it wouldn’t hold much significance. Current technology cannot extend life, whereas cultivation can not only extend life but also infinitely enhance one’s strength and potential. Mechs, however, are inherently fixed when produced; this is their most fundamental limitation compared to cultivation."

Looking at Chu Meng, Lin Feng elaborated further. However, as he finished, he became curious about why Chu Meng was so focused on mechs. It was a bit strange, so he asked her directly: "Senior Sister, why are you so fixated on mechs?"

Seeing Lin Feng’s puzzled expression, Chu Meng covered her mouth and chuckled before answering: "Junior Brother, I’ve been wondering—what if mechs could be used to enhance the strength of cultivators? Combining mechs and cultivation, what kind of results might that achieve?"

This was Chu Meng’s current thought. Today’s battle had sparked many ideas, one of which centered on mechs. If she, her sisters, or the other cultivators around Lin Feng had mech protection, they could better protect themselves in high-level battles and even assist Lin Feng, which greatly appealed to her. Right now, cultivation progress was slow, and mechs offered a more immediate advantage.

"That’s indeed an intriguing idea. It could be highly beneficial for cultivators with limited strength. However, relying on external tools like mechs isn’t ideal for cultivation. Moreover, mechs and cultivation are fundamentally different systems, making integration quite difficult."

Upon hearing Chu Meng’s proposal, Lin Feng roughly grasped her intentions and answered earnestly. The issue involved too many factors, and cultivators leaning on mechs could undermine their cultivation progress. Once people gained powerful external force, they might become lazy about training their own strength—something Lin Feng didn’t want to happen to his Senior Sister.

"Junior Brother, I want to design mechs specifically for cultivator use, to support their combat. With this, when we face situations like today’s, my sisters and I could lend you a hand. Other cultivators could also achieve significant strength boosts. As to the potential negative impact on cultivation, wouldn’t having you around deal with that?" Chu Meng laughed and continued to explain. She didn’t intend to rely entirely on mechs but rather wanted to use them as a supplementary tool for combat.

"If that’s the case, it could work. Once your strength improves, you wouldn’t need such tools anymore." Lin Feng finally understood Chu Meng’s reasoning and nodded in agreement. Her idea was indeed valuable, especially for providing the women around him with temporary self-protection. Once their strength improved, they could simply abandon the mechs.

"It’s settled then! You focus on your tasks—I’m off to the group’s research center with Jack. I refuse to believe we can’t create the thing I want with all our resources!" Thrilled by Lin Feng’s approval, Chu Meng instantly got up and walked away, heading outside to find Jack, intending to pull him along to the research center to start work on her project...

This Senior Sister is always so fiery and energetic.

Watching her leave, Lin Feng chuckled to himself, murmured aloud, and then returned to his previous thoughts. To obtain materials for constructing a small world quickly, the best method would be finding an existing small world and dismantling it. But the problem was, he didn’t even know how many small worlds were left on Earth. The ones in the Hidden World were off-limits, so he’d need to explore other options...

...

The next morning, the sun shone brilliantly, and the weather was beautiful, lifting Lin Feng’s mood. He prepared breakfast early and called the women to wake up and eat. Before long, they all gathered around the table.

"Sister Wan’er, when did you get back last night?"

"Don’t even mention it—it was way past midnight, and I was swamped by those reporters."

"Girl Ding, couldn’t you handle them on your own?"

"Those reporters are so bothersome. It’s not that I couldn’t handle it; it’s just a matter of finding ways to deal with them."

"..."

...

As soon as they sat down, the women started chatting about last night’s events. Mentioning this, Ding Wan’er sighed with frustration. Those reporters were endlessly persistent, coming in waves. She could only deal with them one wave at a time, and she wondered how many more she’d have to manage today. Yet, she couldn’t afford to offend them—even if she didn’t want to talk to them, she had to bear with it.
