Chapter 260: Chapter 248: Slight Improvement, [Dimension Walker], Sudden Enlightenment as Eating, Lin Zhong’s Jealousy! (2/3)

"..."

Lin Zhong’s face darkened on the spot.

This kid, why is he always thinking about the Demon Realm!

Why go to that cursed place?

Is the Monster Realm not fun, are the demons not good to kill, or is the flesh of demon beasts not tasty!

That cursed place in the Demon Realm, where one risks death at every turn—it’s too dangerous, why on earth would he consider it!

Oh right, he doesn’t know the situation in the Demon Realm.

Lin Zhong immediately transmitted a message: "The Demon Realm is very dangerous, a thousand times more dangerous than the Monster Realm! The Demon Annihilation Army has sent some scouts there, and to this day, no one has returned alive!

"With just your Invisibility Method, you won’t survive in the Demon Realm!"

"Even I can detect your traces after you become invisible; those demon scions are even more skilled in using spiritual power. You can’t hide from them!"

Chu Feng’s eyes lit up, focusing on one thing: the Demon Annihilation Army indeed has a way to enter the Demon Realm!

His eyes shifted slightly; Lin Zhong’s intent was direct—he wanted to forge good relations with him, so he was rather generous.

Could he possibly use some promises to exchange for some non-confidential information about the Demon Realm?

"..."

...

Five open-top off-road vehicles formed a convoy that passed through the desolate Gobi and desertified grasslands, kicking up a dust storm.

The convoy encountered roaming demons on the road more than once, even once a massive troop of hundreds of demons, but Lin Zhong crushed them into minced meat on the spot.

Chu Feng also harvested over 300 Attribute Points, bringing his total to 1847 points.

With nothing else to do on the road, he browsed his panel and found that among the multitude of Martial Techniques at Peak Perfection, there was still one Martial Technique and one Magic at the master level which stood out prominently.

He thought about it, and since he had a powerful Cave Heaven Expert as a protector nearby, why not take the opportunity to improve his Martial Technique Realm? Isn’t that what it’s for?

He immediately spent 160 Attribute Points to elevate the Earth Rank Lower Grade Martial Technique, Golden Spirit Body Refining Technique, and Shape-shifting Shadow Move, which Wang Xue Rui had taught him privately, to Peak Perfection!

After elevating the Golden Spirit Body Refining Technique to Peak Perfection, he received a trait called "thousand hammers and hundred refinements."

The effect is that when the Golden Spirit Body Refining Technique is deployed and sustains physical impact, the hardness of the body will gradually strengthen.

It’s like a weapon’s billet, which becomes purer and hardens gradually as it is repeatedly forged and the impurities are hammered out.

This is the original intent of the Golden Spirit Body Refining Technique, to transform the received damage into strength to fortify oneself. As long as one doesn’t die, they will grow stronger!

"Thousand hammers and hundred refinements" is a slow and steady effort that doesn’t do much in battle.

Thus, Chu Feng, after including resistance training in his cultivation plan, put it at the back of his mind.

What he cared about was the trait rewarded by elevating the Shape-shifting Shadow Move to Peak Perfection—"Dimension Walker"!

"Advanced Trait-Dimension Walker: Can transform into a dimension walker, find spatial rifts, disappear from the current world, and initiate a journey across spaces."

"Warning! Do not randomly enter unknown spatial rifts or disturb spatial tides. Violators bear the consequences!"

Chu Feng’s expression slightly tensed; it was the first time he had received a warning from the panel after gaining a trait.

It seemed that this "Dimension Walker" trait was very dangerous.

But on the flip side of danger, Chu Feng also saw the potency of this trait!

He guessed that in the Demon Realms, there surely wouldn’t be a lack of spatial rifts.

After all, the realms themselves were spaces torn from Blue Star and occupied by demons, so the stability of space should be quite compromised.

With the "Dimension Walker" Talent, he could fully dive into a spatial rift to avoid danger and then reemerge safely.

This would truly be an unbeatable position!

Thinking this way, he suddenly became curious—what is inside a spatial rift? Is it the Demon Realm, another place on Blue Star, or an empty, chaotic void?

—Of course, he wouldn’t risk his own life to explore spatial rifts, something that sounds incredibly dangerous.

The Shape-shifting Shadow Move comes from the advanced Combat Technique Research Institute, a new style of magic deduced by the institute’s professors from demon clan scriptures, which Chu Feng had also seen on the exchange list last time.

Since he could derive such a powerful form of magic, his mastery of space magic must be profound, and perhaps he had some insight into things like spatial rifts.

When he returned, he would take some time to participate in the Combat Technique Research Institute and incidentally study knowledge related to the Demon Clan and space magic, preparing for his future entry into the Demon Realm.

With the plan set, he began to ponder over the newly acquired traits, integrating them into his rudimentary combat system.

...

Lost in thought, Chu Feng did not notice that Lin Zhong’s gaze toward him had turned into one of viewing a living freak.

Just moments ago, he had watched as Chu Feng’s eyes suddenly grew lifeless, slipping into a trance, followed by an aura of ancient and profound charm emanating from his entire body.

This charm felt both familiar and strange to Lin Zhong, as if it had appeared sometime during his decades-long career in martial arts.

Before he could recall why this charm felt familiar, in less than two minutes, the aura around Chu Feng dissipated, and his eyes regained clarity.

But then, Chu Feng’s eyes glazed over again, and his body started emitting what seemed to be an even denser aura.

Lin Zhong scratched his head, pondering back and forth, suddenly widened his eyes!

Charm... the charm of the Dao?!

Sudden enlightenment!!

Lin Zhong’s mouth dropped open in shock!

Chu Feng had actually fallen into sudden enlightenment while sitting on a jolting, shaky vehicle!

He stared blankly at Chu Feng, his decades-long set beliefs about martial arts nearly overturned by this scene.

Fuck, can enlightenment be achieved like this?

Little guy, you’re attaining sudden enlightenment right in front of me, on my vehicle?

And freaking twice no less?!

He, too, was an exceptionally talented martial artist who had experienced sudden enlightenment.

But for him, and most martial artists, enlightenment meant retreating to a quiet place, undisturbed and meditative, reaching a state where nothing external mattered—and only then might a fleeting divine light surface in his mind!

This divine light vanished in an instant, and he had only experienced it twice himself.

And just these two moments of enlightenment had helped him surpass most of his peers and reach his current realm.

Yet an ordinary martial artist might not achieve enlightenment even once in a lifetime.

But this damn kid here, does he treat enlightenment like a meal?

"..."

Lin Zhong silently shifted his gaze towards the desolate horizon, suddenly feeling unbearably sour inside.

Damn, the difference between people is indeed bigger than that between a person and a dog!

This kid’s talent makes even me feel jealous!

No good, he’s stirring up the toxins of greed, anger, and ignorance within me, hindering my cultivation; such behavior is truly unfilial!

I must keep him in the military forever as compensation!

Lin Zhong scowled, patted the driver’s shoulder, and instructed him to drive steadily, not to disturb Chu Feng’s enlightenment.

...

After a long time, the convoy arrived at an immensely large military camp.

The camp was surrounded by dense barbed wire and metal obstacles, with teams of vibrant martial artists in Demon Elimination Army uniforms patrolling inside.

The convoy slowly passed through the camp gates, had their identities checked, and continued inward, eventually stopping outside a small cement building.

Noticing that Chu Feng’s mind was lively again, Lin Zhong slapped him on the head with a dark face:

"You little brat, we’ve arrived, follow me!"

Chu Feng winced, rubbing his head, bewilderedly looking at Lin Zhong who angrily hopped off the vehicle.

What’s the situation, has this old man gone crazy, or is it his time of the month?

Randomly hitting me for what!
