Merging with Demon Spirits
Chapter 665 - 487: Refinement of Extraordinary Beings (Part 2)
"Who is this He Jun?"
Someone asked doubtfully.
Among the thirteen bounties, He Jun’s reward was even higher than Zhan Tianyu’s.
You should know that Zhan Tianyu had refined the Six-armed Celestial Demon from the Earth Chart.
Is this He Jun also a super genius?
However, from the data, besides the special demon spirit being refined, which seemed to be an unknown demon spirit, his strength was actually very weak, with Second Grade martial arts strength, no soul skill absorbed, and no other special features.
Although somewhat puzzled, the crowd didn’t take a small figure seriously. No matter how special the demon spirit’s ability was, it still needed strength as support.
"Young people should be less flaunting, keeping low profile is better."
An elder said.
In his view, geniuses should keep a low profile before they grow, otherwise they easily die prematurely.
A genius who hasn’t grown is worth nothing.
Since the revival of Spiritual Qi, many super geniuses had fallen due to the bounties of the Alien Race.
Died at the hands of so-called their own kind.
"They’ve been so high-profile all along and aren’t they living just fine?"
Someone laughed.
Ever since Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi joined, Lin Feng’s squad found it difficult to keep a low profile.
With their battle achievements, it’s hard to stay low-key.
There weren’t many squads with the capability to seal Space Gates, and it was even rarer for a squad like Lin Feng’s to have both capability and courage to do the consecutive sealing, how could they be low-key.
This time, however, publicly announcing the achievement of closing the Land of Chaos was indeed a bit reckless.
But he could understand it, after all, there wasn’t much time left for them to grow.
"Send someone to inform Lin Feng’s squad."
Hong Tao said.
He had anticipated that Lin Feng’s bounty would increase, but he hadn’t expected it to be so exaggerated.
It seemed the Alien Race was indeed furious to the extreme, sparing no cost.
"Do we need to send someone to protect them?"
The colonel looked at Hong Tao and asked.
"No need, they can’t be protected by just anyone. In public places, no one dares to act. In places where people might act, a king’s protection would be useless. Just let them be careful and not wander about."
Hong Tao said.
While everyone was discussing, Yang Qing and Yang Qingtian remained silent.
As one of the Ten Great Clans of Shangjing, the Yang Family had the strength to protect Lin Feng’s squad, but they didn’t know if Lin Feng would accept it or not?
If accepted, it would be an opportunity to improve relations.
....
"Damn it."
A furious curse echoed from a luxurious suite.
Inside the room, with everyone’s amused glances, Yu Qiao began to babble and vent his inner dissatisfaction.
He had already known the news of the Alien Race putting a bounty on them.
Out of the sixteen members of the Avengers Alliance, thirteen were on the list.
His bounty was ranked third from last!
"How could I possibly rank just above Little Sister Dong and Yue Mingming, how could I possibly be the third last!"
Yu Qiao looked at everyone incredulously.
His eyes scanned over each person, seemingly seeking affirmation of his words.
Compared to the danger this bounty brought, being third last was unacceptable to him.
To Yu Qiao, it was a disgrace.
He was supposed to be a future divine-level assassin!
"Third place is already quite high for you, what else do you want?"
Yue Mingming asked somewhat helplessly.
"Get lost, I should at least be in the top five."
Yu Qiao retorted discontentedly, in his view, being in the top five was already very conservative.
"Your potential isn’t as high as Yue Mingming’s."
Lin Feng said with a smile.
In his opinion, if ranked by potential and danger, Yue Mingming could be in the top three, even first.
Yue Mingming has currently absorbed seven soul skills.
All of them were Diamond-level soul skills.
From the first soul skill to the seventh, each of them was absorbed with Lin Feng’s help, with no limit on attempts.
Only Yue Mingming enjoyed this treatment in the alliance.
Even Lin Feng didn’t have such a combination of soul skills.
These seven soul skills were distinct but had very similar effects.
They enhanced spiritual power and perception abilities.
In other words, Yue Mingming absorbed seven of the same type of soul skills.
There are pros and cons to absorbing soul skills this way.
The good part is spiritual power and perception constantly improve. Currently, Yue Mingming’s spiritual and perception abilities have surpassed the average Spirit King-level powerhouse, but the downside is, without a Demon Beast’s protection and lacking attack and defense soul skills, Yue Mingming is weak in combat.
Without the sacrificial backfeeding power of He Jun, Yue Mingming couldn’t even beat an Intermediate Martial Artist.
No summoner had ever taken such a pure and extreme route.
Enhancing spiritual power and boosting perception abilities, these types of soul skills are extremely rare and precious, and compared to other types of soul skills, they have a lower success rate in absorption, plus, without self-preservation abilities, this is not something a normal person would do.
Yue Mingming was obviously not a normal person.
Lin Feng was no different.
With the additional help of an unconventional He Jun, Yue Mingming could afford to be so willful.
Within the alliance, Lin Feng had the highest expectations for Yue Mingming’s future.
Two years ago, upon discovering Yue Mingming’s secret, he had begun to have great expectations.
Since declaring the achievements in closing the Land of Chaos, Lin Feng already anticipated the bounty, the only surprise was how generous the Alien Race was.
The reward was even tempting to him.
If possible, he wanted to kill himself to claim this bounty.
"Just a summoner, if you’re not satisfied we can have a fight."
Yu Qiao looked at Yue Mingming with disdain.
Indeed, Yue Mingming was no ordinary person. His talent far exceeded that of an average summoner, but that was it. How could he possibly surpass himself, just a single-bladed person.
Yue Mingming helplessly ignored him.
"He Jun’s ranking is very high, she’s been noticed."
Ye Xing said seriously.
He wasn’t concerned with his own bounty because he had confidence in his self-preservation.
The others were alright too, their bounties weren’t too high, and they had self-preservation abilities, but He Jun was a bit worrying.
Within the alliance, He Jun was the weakest, having just stepped into the Grandmaster Realm. Although the demon spirit she refined had incredible abilities, it had almost no combat power and she hadn’t absorbed any soul skills.
He Jun’s sacrificial ability was one of the reasons why they dared to embark on the King Becoming plan, in some senses, even more crucial than Lin Feng’s ability.
They always kept He Jun’s existence hidden, but evidently it wasn’t that easy.
Being a member of Lin Feng’s squad meant she possessed extraordinary talent, destined to attract attention.
Although she never took action in past battles, she always maintained a demon possession state, staying in a central position, always under everyone’s protection, which certainly aroused attention and speculation.
The Alien Race knew He Jun was unusual, but apparently hadn’t yet guessed her true ability, otherwise, her bounty might even surpass Lin Feng’s.
The atmosphere was somewhat heavy; even though He Jun forced a calm front, her flickering eyes revealed some nervousness.
"Yes, but there’s no need to be overly worried, this was bound to happen sooner or later."
Lin Feng nodded and said to the somewhat nervous He Jun:
"Our abilities have improved too fast, beyond common sense. There’s no explanation for it. Since we’re participating in the King Becoming plan, it can’t be hidden for long, but even when exposed, by then the plan would have already begun. Some of us might have already broken through to become Kings, gaining self-preservation abilities, so there’s no need to fear too much. Besides, this ability requires a soul skill from Little Green Monster to be effective, it’s not something just anyone can use."
Lin Feng’s words slightly relaxed everyone, but He Jun still seemed a bit anxious.
Seeing this, Dong Yunan placed a hand on He Jun’s shoulder, and said earnestly: "He Jun, don’t be afraid, remember you’re someone who refined an Extraordinary Powerhouse’s existence!"
