163: The Thousand Points Peak, Dragon Pavilion's Gift
Boom—!
An invisible yet mountain-heavy wave of Qi erupted from Lin Feng’s body!
The already dilapidated Ghost Flagship beneath his feet, unable to withstand the impact of this Qi wave, disintegrated inch by inch, turning into a sky full of decaying wood chips that sank into the seabed!
Lin Feng floated silently in mid-air, feeling the earth-shattering changes within his body.
【Indestructible Physique (Specialty)】: Your base HP limit is increased by 300%, and all physical damage received is permanently reduced by 30%. Your body has initially acquired the characteristic of 'non-materialization', allowing it to be immune to most conventional physical attacks.
“Indestructible Physique…”
Lin Feng slowly clenched his fists.
He clearly felt every cell, every inch of his muscles and bones cheering and leaping with joy!
If he was a hard diamond before.
Then now, he was an indestructible concept with infinite malleability!
This feeling was far more wonderful than a simple Rank increase!
...Dragon Pavilion, Highest Council Chamber.
On the light screen, the curve representing Lin Feng's energy fluctuations suddenly showed an extremely bizarre, vertically upward spike at that very moment!
“Alert! Alert! Target energy level has undergone an unknown leap!”
“Unable to Analyze! Unable to comprehend! His vitality index has… has tripled in just one second!!!”
A technician responsible for data monitoring let out a scream as if he had seen a ghost!
“Tripled?!”
“How is that possible?! He only gained two Ranks and added some attribute points! Even an S-Rank Physique specialist, when their Physique Breakthroughs 1000 points, their vitality index would at most only increase by 50%! Triple… This… This completely violates the law of conservation of energy!”
“Monster… He is an out-and-out monster!”
The council chamber once again fell into chaos.
Their proudly held knowledge system, their data models used to judge the strength of enemies, were mercilessly crushed again and again in front of Lin Feng’s unreasonable existence!
The Pavilion Master stared intently at the figure quietly floating on the light screen, a hint of fanaticism flashing in his calm, ancient eyes.
“So that’s it!”
“The 'World Devourer' not only plunders energy and attributes…”
“He plunders things we cannot see!”
“It is the essence of life that other Transcenders spend their entire lives unable to touch!”
He finally understood.
Why the ancestors of the Dragon Pavilion defined an existence like Lin Feng as “Forbidden.”
Because he had already transcended the realm of humans.
He was evolving towards a higher-dimensional life form that no one could comprehend!
“Pass on my command.”
The Pavilion Master’s voice became incredibly firm, even carrying a hint of unquestionable fanaticism.
“Completely open the first level of the Gene Vault’s access to him!”
“Doesn’t he need energy?”
“Then we will give him enough!”
“I want to see what kind of God our Dragon Pavilion’s centuries of accumulation can nurture!”
...Devil Sea Region.
Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes, his Divine Demonic Eyes, one pitch black and one golden, were even deeper and more unsettling than before.
Just then, an encrypted communication request from the Dragon Pavilion was sent directly to his personal terminal.
Lin Feng casually clicked it open.
It was a gift.
【Ding! Your 'Dragon Pavilion Agent' permission has been upgraded!】
【You have gained access and exchange permissions for the first level of the 'Gene Vault'!】
【You have obtained the coordinates of the next S+ Rank Infected target (this time free)!】
Lin Feng’s lips curved into a cold arc.
“Finally… can’t sit still anymore?”
He knew this was the Dragon Pavilion showing him goodwill and making an investment.
They wanted to use these sweet rewards to completely tie him to their so-called “Guardians of Blue Star” team.
But Lin Feng didn’t care.
He only cared whether these so-called resources could make him stronger!
He opened the new intelligence report.
【Target Name】: 'Thousand-Faced Ghost God' — ???
【Original Identity】: Unknown (Suspected rogue member of the Dragon Pavilion)
【Infection Rank】: S+ Rank (Extremely Dangerous)
【Current Rank】: LV.39
【Status】: Completely Fused with the 【heart of the earth (Illusion)】, possessing the ability of myriad transformations, able to perfectly disguise as anyone and replicate most of their abilities. Currently lurking in the Dragon Country’s most densely populated super-first-tier city — Demon Capital.
【Handling Recommendation】: Extremely Dangerous! The target is extremely cunning, skilled at manipulating human hearts, and cannot be located by conventional means! Suggest… giving up or planning for the long term.
LV.39!
A top-tier S+ Rank powerhouse, almost at the Peak of his second Breakthrough!
Moreover, he was a shapeshifter hidden in a bustling metropolis of over twenty million people!
This was an impossible mission.
Any large-scale attack would result in millions of civilian casualties.
And once engaged in street combat, the opponent's myriad transformation abilities would be enough to drive any tracker insane!
“Give up?”
Lin Feng looked at those two glaring words, a smile full of disdain and malice appearing on his face.
Those two words had never been in his dictionary.
“Manipulating human hearts? Cunning?”
He slowly raised his hands.
“In the face of absolute 'plunder'…”
“All disguises are meaningless!”
His Divine Demonic Eyes looked distantly in the direction of Demon Capital!
Under the dual lock of his 【Analysis of Everything】 and 【Source Resonance】, no matter what the so-called Thousand-Faced Ghost God disguised himself as, the Origin aura of the 【heart of the earth】 on him was as clear as a bonfire in the night!
“Found you.”
His dragon phoenix light wings behind him suddenly flapped, and he transformed into a streak of light tearing through the sky, without the slightest pause, directly descending towards that neon-flashing, bustling, sleepless city with endless traffic!
