Chapter 300: Extreme-level Freak!

In the space of the Wind and Thunder Trial on the eighth level, Ling Feng, bathed in blood, had entered a profound state of enlightenment.

The Lingyun Sword King, without reservation, imparted her understanding of sword force into Ling Feng's mind.

For Ling Feng, such teachings were like rain during a drought, dispelling all doubts in his mind. The final thin veil was about to be torn apart.

In theory, only by stepping into the Spiritual Element Realm could one embark on the path of refining the spirit, honing spiritual thoughts, and cultivating sword will to the level of great perfection. Only by doing this could one transform their spirit into sword force.

No matter how outstanding a martial artist might be, gifted and extraordinary, they couldn't break free from this constraint.

Take Li Bufan, known as the Little Sword God, for example. Despite being hailed as a prodigy in sword dao, he had only comprehended sword will at an advanced level.

However, Ling Feng was an exception.

Normally, without reaching the Spiritual Element Realm, one couldn't cultivate spiritual consciousness. But Ling Feng happened to obtain a treasured item by chance.

The Essence-Stealing Blood Pearl!

This pearl fused directly with him, becoming his third eye, the Eye of Plunder.

Every time he plundered an enemy's essence and vitality, Ling Feng could gain a portion of their soul power. Unbeknownst to him, his soul essence had grown considerably strong and was comparable to experts in the Spiritual Element Realm.

Thus, his soul essence had grown so formidable that it could bypass the level of sword will and directly bear the sword force!

While others transformed sword will into sword force, Ling Feng could simultaneously cultivate both sword force and sword will!

Perhaps only Ling Feng could possess such extraordinary opportunities.

It took a full day and night before Ling Feng returned from his state of enlightenment.

His fierce and domineering eyes suddenly opened, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth. Sword force, achieved!

Meanwhile, Ling Feng's body, which had been crumbling under the sword force of the Lingyun Sword King, was completely restored by the elemental force during his enlightenment.

"Thank you, Senior!"

Ling Feng bowed deeply to the Lingyun Sword King. Without her assistance, even if he had entered that state of enlightenment, he would never have mastered the basics of sword force so smoothly due to his lack of profound understanding.

If the Lingyun Sword King had continued to exert the pressure of a perfected sword force on Ling Feng, he would have perished without a doubt.

The Lingyun Sword King looked at Ling Feng incredulously, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.

"Incredible, truly incredible. I just wanted to see how far you could comprehend, but I didn't expect you to grasp sword force!"

Throughout that day and night, the Lingyun Sword King had been observing Ling Feng, and the shock he brought her completely overturned her perceptions.

After a while, Ling Feng's pale, snowflake-like face regained some color.

Perfected sword force suppressed both the mind and body. If Ling Feng's spirit and physique weren't resilient enough, they would have collapsed immediately during the brief clash of sword force with the Lingyun Sword King.

Despite the clash being over, Ling Feng still felt like steel needles were piercing his mind.

The Lingyun Sword King once again unfolded her sword force. "Watch closely. Sword force can not only be used to suppress opponents but also to assist allies."

A gentle and warm energy suddenly enveloped Ling Feng's body. The mental damage he had received seemed to be greatly restored after he was enveloped in the Lingyun Sword King's sword force.

"这......"

"Uhh..."

Ling Feng had never imagined that sword force could also be used to assist allies. It was like having a healing aura!

"Of course, this depends on the attributes of your sword will."

The Lingyun Sword King said with a faint smile. For a moment, her beauty was unmatched, and Ling Feng couldn't help but feel a twinge of regret. Such a beauty was reduced to a mere remnant of a soul.

Unaware of Ling Feng's melancholy, the Lingyun Sword King continued by saying, "My sword will is Lingyun Sword Will. Clouds[2], being a derivative of water, have some regenerative effects. If your opponent were not me but the Jinfeng Sword King from the Yijian Sect, who was skilled in destruction and killing... Although his Jinfeng Sword Force may not necessarily be stronger than my Lingyun Sword Force, in terms of power, I am no match for him.

"If you were tested by his perfected sword force, you would likely end up dead here."

"It seems that my sword force has no auxiliary effect."

Ling Feng pursed his lips. His Slaughterous Sword Will was ruthless and domineering. His sword force was destined only for killing enemies!

"Here is the key to the treasure vault of the eighth level. As usual, you can choose nine items." The Lingyun Sword King's pleasant voice came again.

Ling Feng took the key and looked deeply at the Lingyun Sword King because he knew she would soon disappear.

"Thank you for your kindness."

Ling Feng bowed deeply to the Lingyun Sword King once more.

Although the Lingyun Sword King had been the most brutal opponent he had faced, he had gained the greatest reward on this level.

The Lingyun Sword King smiled, her figure dissipating into specks of light, disappearing before Ling Feng's eyes.

In the vast space, only a dazzling golden door remained—the entrance to the treasure vault of the eighth level...
