The first time Luo Feng was no longer bound by Earth’s gravity, the feeling of flying freely was absolutely wonderful.
Night, in the wilderness.
Luo Feng hovered midair, glancing down at his auxiliary brain computer: “Thankfully I have this auxiliary brain. Let me test my speed!”
The auxiliary brain was an essential device for members of the Yuen-Mo Star, far surpassing Earth’s common “communication watches.” It could measure the basic combat strength from Novice to Cosmic levels, detect the surrounding environment within a certain range, test speed, and evaluate the power of attacks.
“I’ll test my flying speed under various conditions!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dressed in black, Luo Feng zipped through the sky repeatedly, each time at a different speed.
Within moments, he completed speed tests under several conditions.
First scenario: without using the magnetic field or the Dark Cloud Shuttle, purely propelled by his mental energy, his speed reached 912 meters per second!
Second scenario: without the Dark Cloud Shuttle, but using both the magnetic field and mental energy—typical for mental energy users—his speed reached 1223 meters per second.
Third scenario: Luo Feng’s peak performance, with the Dark Cloud Shuttle, magnetic field, and mental energy all fully unleashed—his speed reached an astonishing 2412 meters per second!
“With the Dark Cloud Shuttle or without it, it’s two completely different levels,” Luo Feng was startled by the data himself. “A Level One Star-ranked Mentalist usually flies at 1200 meters per second. With the Dark Cloud Shuttle, I reach 2400 meters per second. That’s double!”
Luo Feng clearly understood that the faster one went, the more incredible the resistance became. It was already extremely difficult to increase speed beyond 1200 meters per second, let alone double it. Even Level Four or Five Star-ranked warriors might not reach such an incredible speed.
From this moment on—
The power of the Dark Cloud Shuttle was evident.
“A Mentalist possessing a mental weapon truly enhances one’s strength significantly,” Luo Feng marveled.
“Now, let me test my current attack power.”
With a thought, one of the blades from the Dark Cloud Shuttle detached. Under the influence of mental energy, the blade transformed into a streak of light, slamming into a ruined gas station building on a distant highway service area. The building was like tofu pierced through, instantly pierced with a hole, and the powerful shockwave from the impact shattered the entire ruined gas station, collapsing half of it.
Luo Feng quickly looked down at the auxiliary brain’s display.
“Attack Power: 28% of Level One Star-ranked (Mentalist)”
This data made Luo Feng’s face light up with joy.
The auxiliary brain had explanations. The “28% of Level One Star-ranked (Mentalist)” meant that the maximum value of Level One Star-ranked was twice the minimum value. The minimum attack power for a Level One Star-ranked Mentalist was about one million kilograms, while the maximum was two million kilograms.
Therefore, 28% of Level One Star-ranked (Mentalist) meant Luo Feng’s blade attack was around 1.28 million kilograms!
“Just entering Level One Star-ranked, and my flying blade already has such power. Not bad,” Luo Feng was quite satisfied.
According to the auxiliary brain’s explanation…
After reaching Star-ranked, there was a significant difference between Mentalists and Genetic Warriors!
Genetic Warriors’ strength was divided into “physical strength” and “genetic energy.” Upon reaching Star-ranked, they could project their energy externally. Their energy attack power could reach one million kilograms, and their physical strength also reached one million kilograms. Therefore, the base value for a Level One Star-ranked Warrior was between two to four million kilograms—double that of a Mentalist!
Seemingly, the Warrior had the advantage.
However, it was important to note that in terms of power amplification, Warriors achieving four or five times amplification was already impressive. The highest on Earth, “Thunder God,” only achieved seven times amplification!
As for Luo Feng, before even reaching Star-ranked, he already had a 16 times amplification!
Plus his advantage in flying speed… Moreover, Mentalists also needed to cultivate genetic energy. After all, a strong body was necessary to support mental energy.
“Let me test the power of the Dark Cloud Shuttle’s transformation into ‘Drill Mountain Cone.'”
…
In the dark night, a golden light streaked across, followed instantly by a thunderous explosion.
“Attack Power: 28% of Level One Star-ranked (Mentalist), amplification 36 times!” Seeing the data on the display, Luo Feng felt exhilarated.
36 times amplification!
Thunder God only had seven times, and the other Star-ranked Mentalist on Earth had only 14 times. The gap between them and Luo Feng was massive.
In fact, when Luo Feng activated the first layer of ‘Drill Mountain Cone,’ he used twelve strands of mental energy, which amplified his power twelvefold. However, the power of the ‘Drill Mountain Cone’ further tripled the power of his mental energy, resulting in an astonishing 36 times amplification!
“According to the bald crystal humanoid, most Star-ranked individuals on Earth are Level One Star-ranked, with a few at Level Two, and two at Level Three! Higher than them are Hong and Thunder God.”
“Two Level Three Star-ranked warriors! Compared to me, they might be about the same, but in terms of speed, they might not even match me.”
…
“Let me see how many hidden weapons I can control now.” After this life transformation, Luo Feng felt his consciousness had grown significantly, though he didn’t know exactly how much.
With a thought.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Blades detached from the Dark Cloud Shuttle, zipping around at maximum speed, each maintaining Luo Feng’s current strongest attack power.
One, two, three… sixteen, seventeen, eighteen!
“The nineteenth blade can’t reach full power.”
“Eighteen blades.”
Luo Feng’s face broke into an even broader smile. “Eighteen…”
“Doesn’t that mean I can now learn the second layer of the first form of ‘Dark Cloud’?”
The first form of the Dark Cloud Shuttle had three levels. The first layer required controlling twelve hidden weapons, the second layer required eighteen, and the third required twenty-four. Consciousness improvement was extremely difficult, and Luo Feng had only managed a slight increase due to his Star-ranked transformation.
In the future, he would have to cultivate step by step.
“The first layer’s power was already that great.”
“What about the second layer?”
“Even if the same threefold amplification applies, eighteen multiplied by three equals a fifty-fourfold attack amplification! Everyone below Hong and Thunder God could be defeated in one move!”
…
This time reaching Star-ranked, the number of flying blades he could control increased from sixteen to eighteen, an unexpected bonus! This allowed Luo Feng to directly learn the second layer of the first form of ‘Dark Cloud.’ However, when he actually began learning, he found it extremely difficult.
Previously, when he could control sixteen blades, learning the first layer—which only required twelve—had taken several hours, with thousands to tens of thousands of failures!
This time, Luo Feng had barely met the requirements…
On January 2nd, he failed!
On January 3rd, still failed!
On January 4th, still failed!
Luo Feng finally understood the immense difficulty of learning ‘Dark Cloud.’ However, once he succeeded, he would undoubtedly become the third strongest person on Earth, after Hong and Thunder God. As for now… Luo Feng had confidence to defeat the Third and Fourth Elders, but it would be difficult to achieve a one-hit kill!
Their strengths were quite close.
…
January 5th was the day Luo Feng officially assumed the position of Inspector.
And on the early morning of this day.
Above the ocean, a blood-red triangular fighter jet swiftly flew by. This fighter was the unique “Primordial Intelligent Fighter” of Hong.
Inside the fighter.
The black-clad ‘Hong’ and the white-robed ‘Thunder God’ sat on the seats.
“Hong, this time if there are any benefits from the Fog Island, don’t try to take them all,” Thunder God said quickly.
“Benefits? Talking about benefits already? If you have the ability, defeat that Monster King first,” Hong glanced at Thunder God, picked up the tea beside him, took a sip, and sighed, “This Monster King is the third Monster King on Earth now. Although it has just appeared, it can exert one hundred percent of its power underground and underwater.”
“Difficult as it is, the Fog Island must have great treasures.”
Thunder God said somewhat reluctantly, “Those plant spirits are one thing, but last time you discovered the ‘Moyun Vine’ on this Fog Island. According to some ancient civilization relics we obtained before, the Moyun Vine… is an extremely valuable treasure even in the vast universe. With the Moyun Vine… Hong, your strength probably increased a lot, right?”
“The Moyun Vine is still growing. Now it can probably increase my strength by about fifty percent,” the black-clad Hong rarely showed a slight smile.
“Fifty percent!”
“Hong, your strength is already unmatched among the Star-ranked. If it increases by fifty percent! Once the Moyun Vine continues to grow in the future, the effect will be even more amazing,” Thunder God couldn’t help but say, “The Fog Island had a Moyun Vine before, and this time a powerful monster we’ve never seen before has appeared. It must be because there is a treasure on the Fog Island that has attracted so many monsters.”
Hong nodded slightly.
“Indeed.”
“When Luo Feng first discovered the Fog Island, there were already many monsters around the lake of the Fog Island. At that time, I was puzzled… why so many water monsters gathered in that lake, but my mind was focused on the Moyun Vine, so I only took the ‘Moyun Vine’ and slightly explored the Fog Island, finding nothing, and then I left.”
“Now it seems—”
“Not only were there many Monster Lords in the lake, but now a ‘Monster King’ has emerged,” Hong frowned. “Judging by its octopus-like appearance, it clearly thrives in water and underground. Normally, a Monster King should be in the endless ocean, yet it has been hiding deep underground in the Fog Island for thousands of meters.”
“Plant spirits, Moyun Vine, Monster King…”
“The Fog Island is indeed very special,” Hong looked at Thunder God and smiled slightly, “However, the treasures in the Fog Island belong to those with the fortune to obtain them. Don’t worry, I won’t compete with you for them. But you also know… treasures like ancient civilization ruins aren’t necessarily obtained by those with the strongest power. It depends on luck and fate.”
The Thunder Deity gave a faint nod, then cracked a wicked grin. “Once I’ve attended the inauguration ceremony for your Extreme Martial Hall’s new Inspector, I shall remain on the Misty Isle. Mark my words—that treasure will be mine.”
“If you stay there all the time, I will also go. Let’s see who among us brothers has better luck,” Hong smiled slightly.
“Greedy.”
That was all Thunder God said.
