Chapter 148: Compressing Astral Power

Chapter 148 Compressing Astral Power

In the South Mountain Base, the morale of the martial artists had been very high recently. They could even hear people discussing the “new policy for martial artists” everywhere.

The “new policy for martial artists” had opened the curtains to a new era. All the martial artists were jubilant. Naturally, the martial artists in the South Mountain Base were the same. They knew very well that once the new policy was implemented, their social status, welfare, and so on would receive comprehensive improvements.

In particular, there was a name circulating among the martial artists-Lin Feng!

It was rumored that there the new policy for martial artists was established because Lin Feng caused a stir in Stone City.

As for Lin Feng-wasn’t their new Chief Commander also called Lin Feng?

Some people were well-informed and quickly obtained the latest news. The Lin Feng at South Mountain Base was indeed Lin Feng, who had caused a stir in Stone City. At this moment, all the martial artists in the South Mountain Base had a new level of respect for Lin Feng, and even a trace of reverence.

Lin Feng had been very “low-key” ever since he came to the South Mountain Base. Some people even felt that Lin Feng was not doing anything, but when they learned that the new policy for martial artists was closely related to Lin Feng, no one felt that Lin Feng was not doing anything anymore, and no one dared to disrespect Lin Feng, because that would incur the hostility of all the martial artists in the South Mountain Base.

Without even doing anything, Lin Feng’s prestige in the South Mountain Base had reached an unprecedented level. Even the previous Chief Commander, Zhou Yun, did not have as much prestige as Lin Feng now in the South Mountain Base.

Lu Wei and the other inhuman experts also gathered. They also discussed the new policy for martial artists, but they were discussing more about the “legendary feats” of Lin Feng.

They were all inhuman experts, so their information channels were naturally not comparable to ordinary martial artists’. Hence, they had long learned about the news of Lin Feng suppressing 30 Screwworm demons in Dragonlith City and obtaining the Hero of Humanity Medal.

Then, they learned about how he caused a stir in Stone City for their lifelong friend. Only then did they realize that their new Chief Commander had experienced so many things, and every single one of them was an earth-shattering event.

“Lu, I didn’t expect the Chief Commander to be such an influential figure. It’s the Hero of Humanity Medal. I wouldn’t even dare to dream of it.”

“Haha, look at the video of our Chief Commander in Dragonlith City. He’s simply so powerful. He could suppress 30 demons alone. Isn’t this comparable to a Second Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist?”

“We don’t know how strong the Chief Commander is, but I believe everyone knows how much potential he has. In the future, even if the Chief Commander attains the Divine Realm, it wouldn’t be that surprising.”

“The thought of our Chief Commander possibly becoming a Divine Realm expert is just thrilling.”

The 21 battalion leaders were all discussing Lin Feng excitedly, all the gloom from the past month swept away.

Lu Wei also kept nodding as he watched. He was genuinely happy. He had come to the South Mountain Base a long time ago, even earlier than Zhou Yun, and had long treated the South Mountain Base as his home.

Zhou Yun was a rather radical person. Lu Wei actually did not agree with Zhou Yun’s decision to take such a risk. In the end, his judgment was also proven very true. Zhou Yun died in battle, and South Mountain Base suffered heavy losses.

From then on, the entire South Mountain Base seemed to have fallen into a gloom. It was unlike now, when ordinary martial artists and inhuman experts were all genuinely excited.

Lu Wei was happy to see this thriving atmosphere. And who was the reason for all this? Lu Wei knew very well that all of this was brought about by Lin Feng.

Hence, even from this point of view, he was very grateful for the changes Lin Feng had brought to the South Mountain Base, even though Lin Feng had actually done nothing after coming to the South Mountain Base.

However, there were still people who were unhappy.

Chen Xue snorted coldly and said, “I think you’ve all forgotten about avenging Brother Zhou! No matter how capable that Lin Feng is, he ca only hide in the house. Has he gone out to hunt Pangolin Beasts even once after coming to the South Mountain Base for so long?”

“Chen Xue, you’ve gone overboard.”

The faces of other inhuman experts sank, and there was faint anger in their voices.

Who among them did not know about Chen Xue’s issue? They even knew that Chen Xue had practically gone insane due to her obsession with avenging Zhou Yun. What did the new Chief Commander have to do with Zhou Yun? Why was he obligated to avenge Zhou Yun?

Moreover, there were some things that these inhuman experts did not say out loud. If Zhou Yun had not been rash and tried to forcefully enter the Pangolin Beasts’ lair to besiege those Pangolin Beasts, the South Mountain Base would not have suffered such heavy losses.

They did not say these words because they hoped that Chen Xue could see it for herself.

But now, Chen Xue was getting more and more overboard, causing many inhuman experts to feel discontent.

“I went overboard? Good, good, good. Looks like you’ve really forgotten about avenge Brother Zhou. Hmph, if you won’t avenge him, I’ll do it myself!”

With that, Chen Xue turned around abruptly and prepared to leave the training room.

“Chen Xue, did you forget the order? All martial artists in the South Mountain Base are not allowed to leave the base without permission, let alone kill the Pangolin Beasts.”

Lu Wei stood up and could not help but berate Chen Xue loudly. He was the one who gave the order. It sounded a little cowardly. They were here to stop the Pangolin Beasts, yet they did not dare to approach the beasts.

However, in reality, this order was very necessary. Pangolin Beasts lived in hordes. Once a Pangolin Beast was killed, a horde of Pangolin Beasts would immediately swarm over.

The South Mountain Base had just suffered heavy losses, and it was far from recovered. At this time, they could only keep a low profile and recuperate. They absolutely could not provoke those Pangolin beasts.

Otherwise, it would not be toughness, but meaningless suicide.

Chen Xue paused for a moment. She turned around and glanced coldly at Lu Wei. In the end, she didn’t say anything and left resolutely.

Lu Wei heaved a long sigh inwardly. The way Chen Xue was, she really could not stay in the South Mountain Base anymore. Otherwise, something would go amiss sooner or later. It seemed like he had to find a time to ask Lin Feng to transfer Chen Xue away from the South Mountain Base.

Lu Wei knew Chen Xue’s temper very well. He was really afraid that Chen Xue would leave the base without permission. Therefore, he paid close attention to Chen Xue’s movements for the next three days.

Fortunately, Chen Xue seemed to be speaking out of anger and did not leave the base. This was a relief to Lu Wei.

“Compress.”

In the secret chamber, Lin Feng suddenly mobilized all the Astral Power with his mental will.

In order to compress Astral Power, all of it had to be compressed together, because it was too difficult to completely compress Astral Power into a “fixed state”. No matter how much strength one had, after the Astral Power was compressed, it would immediately return to its original state.

Hence, all the Astral Power had to be compressed together before circulating the Astral Swirl Technique, converting star power to Astral Power. Only then could one complete the breakthrough

Otherwise, it would be impossible to compress Astral Power one strand at a time. Once the pressure was gone, the Astral Power would return to its original state. He had to seize the moment when all the Astral Power was compressed to condense new Astral Power and break the limit of his body, before he could break through to the second level of the Metamorphic Realm.

This was also why breaking through realms was very difficult for many Metamorphic Realm martial artists. It was indeed not easy to compress 99 strands of Astral Power.

However, if it was not easy for ordinary martial artists, it was even harder for Lin Feng. An ordinary martial artist’s body had the limit of only 99 strands of Astral Power, while Lin Feng’s body had a limit of 523 strands of Astral Power. It was almost five times that of an ordinary First Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist.

If Lin Feng wanted to break through to the Second Level of the Metamorphic Realm, instantly compressing 523 strands of Astral Power in his body would also be a difficult challenge for Lin Feng!

From a certain perspective, the difficulty of Lin Feng’s breakthrough was actually more than five times that of other Metamorphic Realm martial artists!
