Chapter 870: Still Fighting?
Nangong He was dumbfounded at the sight, gazing at Lin Feng’s current performance, equally clueless about how Lin Feng was achieving this. However, Nangong He wasn’t concerned with the how; what mattered to him was that the stronger Lin Feng was, the better. Levitating like this, no one within the Cultivation World except Lin Feng could accomplish such a feat—it was utterly inconceivable!
Suddenly, Nangong He remembered a conversation he once had with the Old Monster and suddenly seemed to grasp some direction—could it be... could it be that Lin Feng had just broken through, reached an entirely new realm? Otherwise, how could Lin Feng possibly be floating in mid-air? What... what realm could Lin Feng be in now? Nangong He dared not think any further. Being able to battle with Li Deming until now was evidence enough of Lin Feng’s strength at the late S-level. If he had broken through again, wouldn’t that mean he had attained the legendary Profound Realm!
No... impossible, Lin Feng was just in his early twenties, there’s no way he could have reached the Profound Realm. It was absolutely impossible. The Profound Realm existed only in legend; no one had ever heard of someone entering that level, so how could Lin Feng possibly be entering the Profound Realm here...
It must be said, Nangong He was on the right track, but he could never have dreamed that Lin Feng was taking a completely different path than the average cultivator. Lin Feng’s condition for advancement wasn’t about breaking through, but about enlightenment. Only by continuously comprehending everything in nature could Lin Feng’s strength improve. This was the standard for Lin Feng’s advancement. And right now, Lin Feng was in this extraordinary state, in a realm of nothingness, alone in his comprehension of the profound mysteries of the air.
Li Deming let out a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Feng suddenly stop—a moment ago, he had been quite busy dealing with the onslaught. But when he saw Lin Feng hovering dozens of meters in the air, Li Deming’s heart went cold. Frankly speaking, flying up to dozens of meters high was possible for him, but hovering at that altitude was something he could not achieve!
Not only him, there was no one else in the world who could do it, for this was beyond what cultivators could achieve. If a person could levitate, would they still be human? Wouldn’t they become immortal? How could this be possible!
At this thought, Li Deming could no longer care about anything else. Lin Feng, hovering dozens of meters in the air, gave him an extreme sense of danger. Despite not knowing how Lin Feng achieved this, Li Deming didn’t want Lin Feng to maintain this levitating state. Without thinking, he unleashed a white Sword Gang attack, dozens of meters long, toward Lin Feng—not hoping to harm but simply to disrupt Lin Feng.
The lengthy Sword Gang, carrying the whoosh of cutting through the air, flew straight towards Lin Feng as if to split him in two. Everywhere it passed, it seemed as if the air itself would freeze, carrying a momentum able to slice through everything, quickly nearing Lin Feng...
Just as the Sword Gang was about to hit Lin Feng, Lin Feng’s eyes suddenly opened. Looking at the Sword Gang, he found its speed seemed incredibly slow, devoid of any danger for him. Floating in the air, he gently moved and successfully evaded the Sword Gang’s range of attack.
Immediately after, Lin Feng disappeared once again into the air; no one could see him anymore!
At this moment, Lin Feng had entered a profound and mysterious state. In his world, it was as though everything had turned extremely slow. He could even freely move in the sky. This exceptional state left Lin Feng feeling fascinated.
Rolling around in the sky for a while, suddenly feeling the surrounding air at his command, experiencing the wind around him being harnessed, Lin Feng had an epiphany—he finally understood what this state was all about!
So this was it—surpassing the speed limit and thereby comprehending the significance of air!
Able to use the air to his advantage, he could hover in the air, doing anything he wished. So this was what it was all about, including using the air to increase his speed, or even potentially tearing through space...
At this moment, Lin Feng finally grasped the meaning of air and the implication of speed. The surrounding air seemed to follow his will, drawing all the forces within the space, allowing Lin Feng to soar freely in the sky like a bird, with a speed that could elevate to an unimaginable degree. Time itself seemed to slow down for Lin Feng, and he had already tested it—though he couldn’t fly very high, that was enough, as a few dozen meters in altitude was sufficient for him to fully exert himself.
Now, it was time to deal with Li Deming. With his current state, Li Deming’s fate was sealed!
Thinking this, Lin Feng came down from the air, wielding the Windbreaker Sword as if piercing through space, and thrust towards Li Deming...
Not a trace of Lin Feng could be seen in the sky, not a sound to be heard—only an intense killing intent was spreading.
Danger!
Li Deming suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of danger in his heart and without a second thought, he stomped down fiercely.
"Boom!"
The ground suddenly caved in under Li Deming’s foot, creating a huge pit over ten meters wide. In an instant, Li Deming burst forth like a streak of light, and without forgetting, he casually slashed behind him. He didn’t know what was happening, but he knew that the sense of danger was too intense. He couldn’t afford to think about anything else and could only control his body by instinct.
It must be said that Li Deming’s decision was indeed a very good one. It was precisely because of this that he narrowly escaped a disaster...
Lin Feng thrust towards Li Deming, and seeing Li Deming suddenly take off, even sending a Sword Gang his way, he smiled indifferently, hovered in midair for a moment, waited for the Sword Gang to pass by, and then landed on the ground. Once his feet were firmly planted, Lin Feng couldn’t help but burst into laughter. The feeling of sudden enlightenment was wonderful; no wonder his cheap master had driven him off the island. If he had stayed on the island, he would never have had such an opportunity, never would have grasped so much.
Lin Feng... Lin Feng!
He...
It’s truly unbelievable!
This... This is too terrifying!
When the people from the Li Family saw this horrifying strike from Lin Feng, their hearts were instantly in their throats because they had clearly seen Lin Feng floating in midair, waiting for the Old Ancestor’s Sword Gang to fly past before landing. This... This was beyond their wildest imagination. Could it be... Could it be that Lin Feng could float in the air at will? What kind of strength was required to do that? It was simply too terrifying. One could imagine that if Lin Feng could really do this, then... then Sword Gangs and such would be meaningless against him...
They looked at Lin Feng with disbelief in their eyes, unable to fathom how Lin Feng had suddenly become a different person in battle. Going forward, could the Old Ancestor... could the Old Ancestor still defeat Lin Feng? What... What should they do!
At this thought, including Li Litian, everyone’s heart began to panic. They all knew one thing, that if the Old Ancestor was defeated, then none of them would possibly leave alive. Under Lin Feng’s extreme speed, his almost flight-like state, and his terrifyingly powerful abilities, they knew it was almost impossible for them to escape this place. Even if they tried to resist, it would be impossible to run away from Lin Feng.
All they could do now was pray that the Old Ancestor could kill Lin Feng under such circumstances. Besides that, they were helpless...
Heaven...
Lin Feng can actually hover in midair!
This... How is that possible? His speed is too fast!
How did Lin Feng manage to do such an incredible thing!
...
The people from the Nangong Family were stunned by what they had just witnessed from Lin Feng; they truly believed that Lin Feng possessed the ability to float in midair at will. Such ability was just too shocking. His speed was now so fast that they couldn’t see even a trace of his figure, and even the sound of Lin Feng’s movement had disappeared. How... How could someone be so powerful? No one could have imagined he could achieve such a thing...
They were the same, never dreaming that Lin Feng would become so powerful so suddenly, a complete change from before. Previously they could still barely see the tricolor glow representing Lin Feng in the air, but now, they couldn’t see the glow at all. They genuinely couldn’t imagine what kind of speed that took!
They didn’t know what to say anymore; their hearts were filled with nothing but marvel, and everyone stood there, unable to move!
Nangong Mingyue and Nangong He, who was lying down, exchanged glances, and smiles appeared on their faces. Things had come this far; they really didn’t need to worry about anything anymore. It was clear to them that Lin Feng seemed to have broken through some boundary, greatly enhancing his strength and speeding up so much that even they could no longer see him, let alone the unbelievable ability to float at will. Such strength was truly staggering.
But the more powerful Lin Feng was, the better. Lin Feng had come to help them, and now that he had become so formidable, they really didn’t have to worry about anything anymore. They could tell that Li Deming was no longer a match for Lin Feng; today’s crisis for the Nangong Family was thoroughly averted. How could they not be pleased!
"Li Deming, are we still fighting?" Lin Feng pointed the tip of his Windbreaker Sword at Li Deming and spoke calmly. He was now completely different from before. After grasping the essence of air, he could freely switch his attack modes and speed. Li Deming was now far from his match. As long as he wished, it would be impossible for Li Deming to live any longer. That was his current strength. The reason he still asked Li Deming was because Lin Feng did not want a grandmaster like him to fall by his hand.
