Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 779: The Power of the Fifth Layer...

"Respectfully, I shall comply. Please be careful, Senior, for my ultimate move is the Carefree Palm, and I have just mastered ’Soul Extinction,’ its power is truly immense." Lin Feng explained and then warned the Old Monster. Although he knew it was impossible to injure the Old Monster, he still hoped the Old Monster would take it seriously, not wanting any accidents to befall him. In the past, he had not possessed the ability to use Soul Extinction, which marked the final lethal technique within the Carefree Palm. He had only recently reached the required level of power to execute it. As for the specific extent of its power, he had no idea.

"Alright, bring it on." The Old Monster, upon hearing Lin Feng’s warning, knew that the move Lin Feng was about to unleash must possess exceptional power, so he quickly gathered all his focus, mobilizing his True Qi to the limit. Suddenly, a red-colored True Qi tightly enveloped the Old Monster—a clear sign that he was earnestly preparing for Lin Feng’s upcoming ultimate move, ’Soul Extinction’.

Seeing that the Old Monster was ready, Lin Feng also began to furiously gather True Qi, completing the process very quickly. At this moment, Lin Feng appeared like a Heaven God descending to earth, his figure flickering as he flew towards the Old Monster shrouded in a golden radiance. His speed was so fast that both Leng Hao and Man Long were unable to react in time. They only saw a burst of golden light rushing towards the Old Monster now transformed into a ball of red light, and in that moment, Lin Feng’s palms had somehow turned golden...

"Bang!"

Not far from the Old Monster, Lin Feng suddenly propelled himself with his legs, leaping high into the air. In a meteor-like dash, he hurtled toward the Old Monster, causing light-like distortions and trail-breaking sounds in the air, an awe-inspiring sight to behold...

Leng Hao and Man Long were both shocked and changed color at Lin Feng’s move. Although they did not know what effect Lin Feng’s strike would have, just watching its current manifestations, it seemed capable of obliterating the earth itself!

The Old Monster was also taken aback by Lin Feng’s strike. He hadn’t anticipated that Lin Feng’s ultimate move would pack such power. Others may not realize, but he felt very clear about it. Before they even clashed, he felt as if he were locked in place, with no possibility of escape, and even his skin began to sense an immense pressure. This was truly outrageous!

Convinced that Lin Feng’s strike would not be weak, the Old Monster didn’t want any unforeseen mishaps and hence also pushed his Cultivation Power to the absolute limit. With his hands crossed, he unleashed the Burning Fire Sky Shaking Palm to counter Lin Feng’s ’Soul Extinction’.

"Boom!"

A red and a gold light spot finally collided. A dazzling interplay of red and gold brilliance flared, but oddly, there was no formation of the light curtain as before. However, the resulting explosive sound was like the descent of the Thunder God, gouging out a nearly hundred-meter-wide crater in the ground. The terrifying shockwave, carrying the momentum to annihilate everything, shredded all the vegetation within several hundred meters’ radius, and even beyond, forming an expansive pattern as every blade of grass was flattened to the ground...

The red and gold light spots even smashed a colossal hole in the ground and vanished from sight!

The fierce wind pressure even reached Leng Hao and Man Long on the sidelines, leaving them completely flabbergasted. They were a thousand meters away from the clash, yet they could still feel the mighty current of air approaching them, and the thunderous noise caused them immense discomfort internally. Man Long was faring much better, thanks to his level of Cultivation, but Leng Hao suffered internal injuries from the reverberating impact of the blast!

Brother-in-law, this is too terrifying!

Leng Hao, suppressing his internal injuries, was at a loss how to describe Lin Feng now. He had imagined Lin Feng might be impossibly strong, but he never thought it would be to this extent. Brother-in-law’s power is just too frightening... Only an unparalleled figure like the Old Monster could possibly match up to brother-in-law!

Lin Feng, how could he possibly be this powerful!

Man Long was speechless in amazement upon witnessing the strike. Lin Feng’s displayed strength had undoubtedly surpassed his own; this was an indisputable fact. Unless he was mistaken, there was probably nobody else in this world besides their master who could contend with Lin Feng now. Such power was just too defying of the heavens. How on earth did Lin Feng acquire such an otherworldly and extraordinary capability? It was beyond belief!

Similarly, the Old Monster himself was startled by the power of Lin Feng’s strike. While he expected it to be fearsome, he hadn’t foreseen it reaching such a level. Thank goodness Lin Feng had previously healed his injuries; otherwise, the Old Monster wasn’t sure he could have withstood that move.

Although this move was successfully blocked without any danger, Old Monster could feel that Lin Feng had not used his full strength, which made Old Monster’s perception of Lin Feng rise to a completely new level. Lin Feng’s strength was even approaching his own, which was truly unexpected. He had never imagined that Lin Feng could be so powerful. If he hadn’t resisted with all his might just now, he might have been injured...

Outside, Man Long and Leng Hao had no idea that Lin Feng’s strike had pushed Old Monster more than twenty meters into the ground, creating a massive hole...

A red and a golden light leapt out from the giant pit and stood separately.

However, the situation was somewhat pitiful; Old Monster’s robe was nearly reduced to tatters, and even the sleeves on his arms had vanished without trace. His white hair and beard were completely disheveled. Lin Feng wasn’t much better off, his clothes had been utterly shattered, leaving behind only black bandage-like wraps on his body, indicating that the power of the strike truly exceeded everyone’s imagination!

"Exciting, truly exciting! Lin Feng, you’ve really surprised me. ’Soul Extinction,’ not bad, really not bad, worthy of the name. If I’m not mistaken, you haven’t used your full strength yet, have you?" Old Monster, not caring about his own ragged appearance, spoke to Lin Feng with great excitement. What he wanted to know most now was how much of his cultivation power Lin Feng had used in that strike and what the full power of Lin Feng’s strike was like.

"Senior, my apologies. It was my first time using it, and I wasn’t aware of its effects. I used five layers of my strength," Lin Feng said, looking at Old Monster’s pitiful state and then at his own vanished clothes. He was rendered speechless, knowing the strike would be powerful but not expecting it to be to such an extent, which was also beyond his own expectations. No wonder he had just comprehended this move—the power indeed was too great!

Hearing Old Monster’s question, Lin Feng hurriedly apologized and explained the actual situation. Even Lin Feng himself was contemplating what terrifying outcome there would have been had he used his full power just now, a prospect probably unknown to anyone...

"Why speak of such useless matters? I really didn’t expect the power at five layers to be like this. If it were at ten layers, I might not be able to take it even with my full strength. Good, really good. By the way, Lin Feng, what are those black bandage-like wraps on you?" After hearing what Lin Feng said, Old Monster immediately understood the extent of Lin Feng’s strike. As he said, if Lin Feng had used his full strength, Old Monster truly might not have been able to withstand it, and even if he had, it might have been dangerous.

Thinking this, Old Monster sincerely praised Lin Feng. For a young man to have strength not far off from his own was incredible—Old Monster was over a hundred years old, while Lin Feng was only in his early twenties. The outcome frustrated Old Monster, who couldn’t understand how Lin Feng could be so formidable! Perhaps only Lin Feng’s master would know why. Regardless, Lin Feng’s unique cultivation system truly was too unconventional, granting him such power at his young age. Given time, Lin Feng would certainly enter the legendary Profound Realm!

But Old Monster, looking at the black bandage-like wraps on Lin Feng, was momentarily dumbfounded, wondering what they were. The clothes were gone, but these things remained intact—what were they? With that thought, Old Monster couldn’t help but inquire.

"These are my weight-bearing straps, given to me by my master. I don’t know what they are either," replied Lin Feng directly to Old Monster. However, during their recent exchange, Lin Feng felt the barely perceivable Elemental True Qi on his palm, which made him yearn to experience it more deeply...

"What, you’ve been fighting me until now with weight-bearing gear? You..." Old Monster was utterly dumbfounded by Lin Feng’s reply. He couldn’t accept this revelation, finding it inconceivable that Lin Feng had been fighting with the weights on all this time. That was just too abnormal; Old Monster couldn’t help but curse Lin Feng internally as a freak.

"I must see your limit. Lin Feng, from here on there will be no constraints. You don’t need to hide any of your strength, and neither will I. How about that? Let me see just how strong you are at your very best!"

Old Monster looked at Lin Feng with a serious expression, sensing that if Lin Feng were to fight without any restraints, he might really provide a tremendous surprise. Realizing that Lin Feng was still wearing the weights, no wonder his power was so great. Once Lin Feng fully unleashed his potential, he might truly be able to match Old Monster. With that thought, Old Monster voiced his intentions, now genuinely curious to discover the extent of Lin Feng’s limits.

"Alright, as the senior has said," agreed Lin Feng, upon hearing Old Monster’s words, he immediately accepted the challenge. Only by sparring with someone like Old Monster could he push past his limits. It was precisely what Lin Feng desired—to find his limits within extremity and perhaps understand even more. Furthermore, the Elemental True Qi from Old Monster was incredibly enticing to Lin Feng. Only a peerless expert like Old Monster could push him to unprecedented limits, an opportunity Lin Feng would not miss.

"Be careful, Lin Feng. I’ll use all my strength. This is my Sunburst Sword, paired with my Burning Fire Sky Shaking Art. Its power is no ordinary matter. I haven’t used it in nearly a hundred years, and you are the first to see it," Old Monster said joyously when Lin Feng so decisively agreed. He took out the fiery Sunburst Sword hidden behind him because Lin Feng had proven worthy of it. After a century’s stillness, even taking out the Sunburst Sword resonated with a humming sound.
