65: Rushing for help (Part 1)!

Hiss!!

Hiss!!

...Inside the martial arts academy's training hall, countless gasps of cold air immediately resounded.

Chen Fan acted as if he hadn't heard anything, returning to his original spot and resuming his training.

This time, he no longer absorbed cosmic energy with his whole being.

Instead, he drew cosmic energy into his mind through the Baihui acupoint, converting it into the source of Spiritual power.

As Chen Fan sat cross-legged, the surrounding cosmic energy still surged towards him like a tide.

It looked as if it wanted to completely engulf Chen Fan.

He knew very well that the higher his cultivation of Ninefold Thunderblade, the more genetic energy he would be able to absorb.

This perfectly aligned with what was described in the Ninefold Thunderblade manual: the deeper one's understanding, the faster one's cultivation speed.

What surprised Chen Fan even more was that the Spiritual power in his mind was entirely cultivated through practice.

This situation was completely different from Luo Feng in the original work, who became a Psycher Master by relying on the dark golden orb.

Therefore, compared to Luo Feng, Chen Fan's Spiritual power improvement had virtually no limits.

Unless the cosmic energy was completely absorbed... but that was simply impossible.

Whoosh whoosh!!

As his cultivation progressed, Chen Fan clearly felt an invisible energy accumulating in his mind.

After this Spiritual power appeared, it spread directly from his brain to all his limbs and bones.

Immediately after, this pure Spiritual power silently began to temper and strengthen everything in Chen Fan once again.

“Spiritual power + 5”

“Spiritual power + 3”

“Spiritual power + 2”

...As time passed, a large amount of Spiritual power had already gathered in Chen Fan's mind.

At the same time, the speed at which his entire body absorbed Spiritual power gradually slowed down.

It seemed... his body was already nearing a state of saturation.

Chen Fan thought so.

Then, he stood up, preparing to perform Ninefold Thunderblade once again.

And by doing so, consume the energy within his body, allowing the Spiritual power surrounding his mind to be better absorbed.

With a decision made, Chen Fan began practicing his blade again.

Swish swish!!

With the Battle Blade in hand, Chen Fan danced a few blade flowers in mid-air, then officially began practicing Ninefold Thunderblade.

Clang!

The Battle Blade cut through the air, carrying a fierce gust of wind.

However, at this very moment, an unexpected change occurred.

"All intermediate warriors and above from the Dojo of Limits are requested to pack their bags and equipment, and gather at the nearest martial arts academy within one hour!"

"..."

"..."

Three consecutive urgent alerts interrupted Chen Fan's intention to continue practicing his blade.

This seemed a little off!

Without warning, a shadow crept into Chen Fan's heart, sending a chill down his spine.

From the tense alert sound, Chen Fan detected something ominous.

At the same time, the martial artists around who received this message had already begun to act.

With everyone leaving, the entire martial arts academy quickly became empty.

Everyone was moving!

At this moment, Chen Fan also arrived at the changing room.

After changing into a full set of gear, he waited with other martial artists at the Dojo of Limits.

Beep beep beep!!

Just as Chen Fan was mingling among the ordinary martial artist Team, his communication watch suddenly rang with an unfamiliar call.

Chen Fan looked at the call, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.

"This is the Ninth Army's dedicated communication number!"

Squeezing out from the noisy crowd of martial artists, Chen Fan found a quiet spot and clicked to accept the call.

"Chen Fan, something big has happened, where are you now?"

Qin Xianzhen's voice came from the other end of the phone, and Chen Fan was slightly startled for a moment, then told him his location in detail.

"Then you wait there, we'll come pick you up right away."

Qin Xianzhen's voice carried immense urgency, as if he had encountered something colossal.

"Instructor Qin, what happened?"

Chen Fan asked, puzzled.

"No time to explain, the Dojo of Limits and Thunder Martial Hall encountered some setbacks while attacking the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins. I'll tell you the specifics on the plane..."

Immediately after, a 'thump thump thump thump' sound of rotating helicopter blades echoed from the other end of the phone.

Without even thinking, Chen Fan could distinguish that it was the sound of a Falcon Helicopter.

It seemed Qin Xianzhen was coming to pick him up.

"The Dojo of Limits and Thunder Martial Hall encountered some difficulties attacking the Ancient Civilization Ruins?"

Chen Fan repeated Qin Xianzhen's words, his brows beginning to furrow slightly.

Logically speaking, an allied army of two major powers attacking an Ancient Civilization Ruins should be unstoppable.

As for encountering setbacks?

Joking aside, it was Hong and Thunder God personally leading the team, along with other Planetary Level martial artists and numerous God of War martial artists holding the line.

To put it bluntly.

Such strength was enough to sweep away all monsters within a thousand-mile radius of any base city.

But today, the allied forces of the The Two Great Martial Arts Schools were bogged down and unable to advance in the dense forests of South America.

Such a result was truly somewhat baffling.

At the same time, a bad premonition lingered in Chen Fan's heart.

It seems the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins isn't that easy to conquer!

Such a thought immediately surfaced in Chen Fan's mind.

Soon, his eyes became solemn.

Recalling the Ancient Civilization Ruins that were conquered in later generations, Chen Fan felt much better in his heart.

Chen Fan packed his equipment and stood outside the Dojo of Limits, waiting for Qin Xianzhen's arrival.

As an unattached lieutenant colonel, Chen Fan had the responsibility and obligation to accept the Ninth Army's deployment.

After all, the treatment he and his family enjoyed didn't come for free.

August 18, 2017, Friday.

The Ninth Army's dedicated helicopter picked up Chen Fan from the Beihe District Dojo of Limits.

In the afternoon, at the military base.

Chen Fan, along with Qin Xianzhen, Yan Xiao, and the Dragon Breath Squad, boarded a large transport plane.

The leader of the team was none other than Fu Fengxue of the Ninth Army.

Inside the cabin, there was a profound silence.

No one spoke, nor did anyone whisper; everyone remained silent.

Chen Fan looked out the window; rows of large transport planes, just like theirs, had formed a long snake-like formation, ready for takeoff at any moment.

At the combat airfield further out, more interceptors, bombers, and fighter jets were fully armed and loaded with ammunition.

A major battle was inevitable!

Chen Fan mused silently in his heart.

"This time, our destination is the Amazon rainforest in South America."

"Mission: Support the Dojo of Limits and Thunder Martial Hall."

Without any concealment, Fu Fengxue calmly stated the matter.

For him, letting his soldiers know the truth was much better than being evasive.

"This... this!!"

"Supporting the The Two Great Martial Arts Schools??"

"..."

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire cabin erupted in an uproar.

But as Fu Fengxue pressed his hands down, the cabin quickly returned to silence.

Then, he continued:

"You may or may not know a little bit of news.

Hong and Thunder God led the elites of the two martial arts academies to attack the No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins. After their first victory, they were counter-encircled by a beast horde. We need to go support them and rescue them..."

"It's not just us; Xue Zhan of the Jingji Garrison and the Four Great Vajras have all been dispatched to reinforce Hong and Thunder God!"

"Furthermore, including us, the Five Great Powers, the HR Alliance, the Mercenary Alliance, and some other forces, have all mobilized en masse to reinforce Thunder God and Hong!"

After speaking, Fu Fengxue swept his gaze deeply across everyone, then closed his eyes to rest, not saying another word, leaving the cabin filled with astonished faces.

The silent atmosphere quickly spread throughout for a time...
