Extreme Almightiest Young Master
Chapter 2481 - 2460: The Great City
Chapter 2460: The Great City
Over the following month or so, Lin Feng explored every area here, experiencing studies on space formations, time formations, teleportation formations... and more than a dozen other formation study areas, gaining numerous unique insights that elevated Lin Feng’s understanding of formations to a whole new level!
Many puzzling aspects he encountered in the formations upon first entering here were perfectly answered by these formation models. It could even be said that Lin Feng’s accomplishments in formations at this moment have surpassed the most renowned Array Masters in the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm; however, Lin Feng’s own strength is still insufficient to construct some formations of immense power.
Among these, Lin Feng made a miraculous discovery of a special formation research system—the Energy Formation Research System. After studying it, Lin Feng finally understood what energy formations were all about. Essentially, they are akin to nuclear reactors on Earth, providing energy to other units through special wireless methods, like those he encountered in Machine Spirit Venerable’s mansion. If he needs to set up such formations in the future, his mechanical puppets’ energy issues can be solved!
What Lin Feng found most rewarding was obtaining a ready-made teleportation disk here. As long as he has sufficient Yuan Stones and knows the coordinates on the other side, he can activate the disk to teleport. According to Zhenxuan Venerable’s explanation, if he knows the coordinates of other cross-realm planes, he can also teleport there, greatly facilitating his future travels across various realms!
After packing up the teleportation disk, Lin Feng walked toward the outside world with satisfaction. Once leaving this special space, he hesitated and then stored the Jade Stele in the Cave Heaven Mansion, ensuring that no one will enter this special space even if others come in the future.
Thinking about the skeleton of Zhenxuan Venerable at the top of the tower, Lin Feng felt he should lay Zhenxuan Venerable to rest, so he went up to retrieve the skeleton and walked out of the tower.
This time, he no longer needed to go through the trouble like before; merely using his Divine Sense, he cracked the formations around the tower. Tao Tao and others greeted him one after another, feeling happy to see Lin Feng unscathed, though they were puzzled by the skeleton in his hands.
"This is the previous master of the Ghost Fire of Resentment; he has passed away and must be laid to rest," Lin Feng remarked briefly and then continued walking into the distance. Before long, he reached the area outside the palace, activated all formations with his Divine Sense, and led Tao Tao and them back to the picturesque mountains and wilds.
Choosing a particularly scenic spot, Lin Feng buried the skeleton there and decided to carve a stele for Zhenxuan Venerable, simply naming it Tomb of Zhenxuan, to prevent future visitors from unearthing the skeleton.
Having completed these tasks, Lin Feng relaxed and immediately led Tao Tao and them to the previous territory of the Thunder Crystal Tiger.
"Brother Lin, why are we heading there?" Tao Tao earnestly asked Lin Feng as they walked on the floating bridge emanating from the Life and Death Cliff.
"You’ll know when you get there," Lin Feng replied casually, reflecting on why he had to create a pathway on the Life and Death Cliff before finding Zhenxuan Venerable. After learning Zhenxuan Venerable’s formation knowledge in the special space, he then understood the reason behind it.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s response, Tao Tao and the others were disinclined to inquire further, so they followed Lin Feng closely. Only after crossing the floating bridge and re-entering the other side did Lin Feng lead them to a place where beams of spiritual light incessantly struck, amidst the thunderous heavens, Lin Feng entered it and emerged shortly with two watermelon-sized stones emitting thunder light, exuding a terrifying energy aura!
"Boss Lin, what are these things?" Ma Biaohu asked curiously as he looked at the two thunderous rocks in Lin Feng’s hands, not understanding what Lin Feng intended with these stones, fearing they might explode.
Tao Tao and Tangyuan stood aside without speaking, but they were just as intrigued, wanting to know what Lin Feng was holding.
Instead of answering directly, Lin Feng smiled and bumped the stones together, nearly frightening Ma Biaohu and them to death. But then they saw the stone shells fall off, revealing two crystalline crystals inside, with dazzling thunder rays shining within.
"These stones are called Thunder Crystal Stones; they’re a rare type of stone. The energy formations studied by Zhenxuan Venerable were arranged using these. With these Thunder Crystal Stones, the mechanical puppets’ energy problem can be solved in the future," Lin Feng explained with a smile.
"Ah... There are formations like this!"
"Then... aren’t the mechanical puppets just a showpiece anymore?"
"This... this is absolutely genius!"
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, Tao Tao and the others finally understood everything and exclaimed joyfully, feeling delighted. The prowess of mechanical puppets has long been renowned throughout the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm, and now having a solution to the energy problem naturally raised their spirits!
Afterward, they followed Lin Feng to start searching around the Sea of Thunder for Thunder Crystal Stones, spending over three months walking around the edge of the entire area, eventually finding hundreds of Thunder Crystal Stones. Although these weren’t many, there’s no choice; the Thunder Crystal Stones’ yield is truly low.
After searching all the stones, Lin Feng set up a spatial coordinate here and then left with Tao Tao and them...
Embarking on another journey, they all felt dazed, not knowing where to head next. Lin Feng’s Divine Sense covers a hundred thousand miles but still cannot penetrate the endless forest around them, leaving Lin Feng uncertain of their current location.
But with a mindset of training, Lin Feng was not anxious at all and took Tao Tao and them in a random direction.
Time flew by, and more than a year passed. During this year, Ma Biaohu and Tao Tao were almost constantly battling Demon Beasts. This year of grinding fortified their Divine King Realm and vastly improved their combat experience, allowing them to face other Divine Kings without suffering losses.
In this year, Lin Feng kept traveling and constantly searched the forest for various Spiritual Medicines. He even stumbled upon a Demon Venerable-level Demon Beast’s remnant mansion, collecting an enormous Demon Venerable skeleton.
According to Lin Feng, if there’s time in the future, he could forge a bone whip Dharma Treasure from the Demon Venerable skeleton and give it to Ma Biaohu, who rolled his eyes at the thought because he’s never considered using a skeletal weapon; this... this style was too much for him.
Yet, he couldn’t refuse Lin Feng’s arrangements, so he grudgingly agreed, secretly vowing to trade the bone whip later for a double-handed greatsword, which he believed suited the masculine essence!
One day, Lin Feng suddenly stopped, smiling.
"Brother Lin, what’s up?" Tao Tao promptly asked, seeing Lin Feng.
"I’ve spotted other humans; we might soon find a city," Lin Feng replied with a smile, feeling a sense of nostalgia. The region of the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm was indeed vast; it took them a year of travel to finally locate other humans.
"Ah... Finally, we’ll find a city. I want meat; I want wine..." Ma Biaohu’s eyes welled up upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. It’s been two to three years since they entered Despair Plains with Lin Feng, and since then, he hasn’t had a hearty meal, reminiscing about the past days of wine and meat...
"Yeah, I want meat and wine too!" Tangyuan sat atop Lin Feng, blinking as he spoke, unable to withstand it much longer.
"Let’s hurry, haha!" Seeing Ma Biaohu and Tangyuan like this, Tao Tao covered her mouth, saying she too wanted to visit the city, feeling it’s strange not seeing other humans for so long.
"Alright, let’s go!"
Lin Feng, seeing this, naturally didn’t object, simply uttering a few words before leading Tao Tao and them forward.
In fact, the quickest method was Thousand Miles in One Step, but its consumption was so vast that if unnecessary, Lin Feng preferred not to use it, favoring steady travel. However, this time, they ceased battling Demon Beasts in the forest and focused on their journey...
Amid frantic trek, they covered over ten thousand miles in just five days, showcasing their incredibly swift pace.
Dust-laden and travel-worn, they arrived before a grand city, far larger than the previous Xucheng, and remarkably more magnificent. In terms of walls or city scale, it was beyond comparison to the former Xucheng.
Ling City!
Looking at the super city gate towering over a hundred zhang with characters several zhang in size, viewing the surrounding hundred zhang tall city walls and the numerous turrets atop them, Lin Feng and the others felt the city exuded immense grandeur. Such a magnificent city is indeed a true metropolis!
Moreover, they were even more astounded by Ling City’s sprawling size, outstretching over a thousand li in circumference. Such a city, even Lin Feng found quite surprising, roughly estimating that this grand city must have a truly terrifying population...
