Chapter 679: Chapter 384: Long-Distance Confrontation with a Tenth Order Strongman_2
Moreover, what was even more important was that everyone knew Ye Feng’s true cultivation level was only at the Sixth Order, yet he already possessed the power of the Seventh Order.
So, by the time he broke through to the Seventh Order, just how powerful could he become?
...
While the netizens fervently discussed the war online, the staff in the military headquarters also engaged in talks about the same issue after they had a moment to spare.
"What do you make of this?" asked Staff Officer Chen Youli, who had set aside his work after affirming that the overall situation was under control, and approached Zhao Guofeng to speak in a whisper.
"Which matter?" Zhao casually inquired.
"Of course I’m talking about Ye Feng. We know the particulars of the recent battle better than anyone else, don’t we?"
"When did Ye Feng get involved with Dragon Hall? And he didn’t even inform us about it. Do you think there could be..."
Chen Youli’s voice trailed off, but the worry in his eyes disclosed his concern without reservation.
"Whether there could be or couldn’t be, it’s not our place to worry about such things."
"I’ve already reported the matter in full detail to the higher-ups. Now it’s up to the Security Bureau to communicate with Ye Feng," Zhao Guofeng said while glancing through the reports in his hand.
"This... Are you really not worried at all?" Chen Youli couldn’t help but ask.
"What good would worrying do? With the strength that Ye Feng has shown, do you think you can question him?"
"All we can do now is pray that there is no connection between Ye Feng and the Dragon King," said Zhao Guofeng as he closed the file in his hand and stood up to head towards the strategy meeting room.
Chen Youli, left standing there, opened his mouth as if to speak but ultimately didn’t know what to say.
...
When Ye Feng returned to the military camp, he was greeted with tremendous enthusiasm.
It wasn’t just the soldiers here; even the competitors looked at Ye Feng with adoring eyes.
And Ye Feng was sure that their admiration wasn’t feigned—they truly revered him in their hearts.
This much was apparent from the continuous emanation of the Power of Faith from their bodies.
Ye Feng nodded in response to the crowd while making his way towards the resting area.
The crowd understood that Ye Feng must be tired after the battle, so despite having many questions, they refrained from disturbing him.
Upon reaching the resting area, it was deserted. The intense nature of the previous battle did not allow for anyone to rest here.
Even now, it was difficult to rest easy before the Mutated Beings that had crossed the river were completely eradicated.
As soon as Ye Feng entered the resting area, two logistics personnel came in with some Spirit Fruits and asked Ye Feng if he wanted anything else to eat.
"I am indeed a bit hungry. You can just bring me some dry food. Don’t bother with anything elaborate," Ye Feng said with a smile, taking a Spirit Fruit and beginning to restore his Spiritual Energy.
The two logistics personnel didn’t dare to intrude further and quickly exited to prepare food for Ye Feng.
After they had left, Ye Feng took out the storage ring from his pocket.
This was his greatest spoils of war. After all, those extraterrestrial strongmen were at least at the Tenth Order Level. Even a mere avatar must be carrying valuable items.
Ye Feng wasn’t guessing wildly. If the Spider Queen could muster such a vast Animal Army in a short time, apart from having special methods, the resources invested could not possibly be meager.
With this thought, a hint of anticipation glinted in Ye Feng’s eyes.
He immediately summoned his formidable spiritual power, focusing it towards infiltrating the storage ring.
A Spiritual Imprint nestled deep within the storage ring, if not erased, would forever prevent Ye Feng from gaining control over it.
Ye Feng’s spiritual power surged like a tide, relentlessly flooding toward the Spiritual Imprint.
However, the Spiritual Imprint remained immovable like a mountain range before a river.
"Is this the Spiritual Imprint of a Tenth Order Level? Truly formidable," Ye Feng mused with some emotion.
If he had faced the Spider Queen’s true body, a casual Mental Shock from her would likely have taken his life.
Now, dealing with just a Spiritual Imprint, all he needed to do was...
"What is this thing!"
Suddenly, Ye Feng jumped in shock because as he was attacking the Spiritual Imprint, it abruptly morphed into a pitch-black spider.
Of course, this spider wasn’t made of tangible substance; it was formed purely of spiritual power but exuded an extremely malevolent essence.
Once the black spider appeared, it followed Ye Feng’s spiritual power up the stream, trying to penetrate his Sea of Consciousness.
At that moment, Ye Feng felt an intense sense of crisis.
He knew he had been careless. This was unquestionably one of the Spider Queen’s contingency plans, and only her real Tenth Order body could have set such a trap.
He had a premonition that if the spider were to enter his Sea of Consciousness, he might end up controlled like those Mutated Animals.
Without any hesitation, Ye Feng instantly activated the Soul Burning Art, multiplying his spiritual power by tenfold in an instant.
Simultaneously, the Hammer of Spirit took shape, smashing fiercely toward the spider.
With the intensity of Ye Feng’s spiritual power, coupled with his Spirit Power Secret Technique and Spiritual Martial Art, this strike was surely comparable to that of an Eighth-order Spirit Power Strongman.
