Permanent Martial Arts

Chapter 202: Disappointment

Lin Feng felt a strange power envelop his entire body. The Mental Power Sphere in his mind spun, as if something had triggered it. Mental power filled Lin Feng’s mind, invigorating his spirit.

He didn’t seem to feel anything.

Lin Feng looked at Bai Xu with slight surprise. Bai Xu was still smiling there. Why did his expression look a little awkward?

Bai Xu was indeed a little embarrassed. Wasn’t family Lin Feng’s mental weakness? Why was family ineffective on Lin Feng?

Hence, Bai Xu took a deep breath and said, “Lin Feng, have you ever liked someone?”

“Liked someone?”

Qu Chen appeared in Lin Feng’s mind, but that was all. Bai Xu’s face was flushed red from exertion. The Astral Power fluctuations even became stronger, but Lin Feng still did not feel anything.

Was Bai Xu deliberately going easy on him?

Lin Feng even suspected that Bai Xu was kidding around.

“How is that possible? It’s impossible for your mind to be flawless. How can you not fall into the illusion?”

Bai Xu wore a somewhat embarrassed expression. When mentioning words like family and someone he liked, Lin Feng’s expression clearly changed. This meant that Lin Feng’s mind was flawed.

It was basically very easy for a flawed mind to fall into his illusion. Why hadn’t Lin Feng fallen into an illusion?

Bai Xu found it unbelievable. He could not understand it at all.

“Oh, is this your illusion?”

Lin Feng shook his head. He had roughly understood that Bai Xu’s so-called illusion actually targeted the mind. However, if the mind was protected by mental power, what could a mere illusion do?

In terms of the use of mental power, the current Lin Feng was even stronger than the Nine Sages. After all, he had the cultivation method for mental power under the cosmic cultivation system.

Seeing that Bai Xu and Lin Feng did not fight, nor were there any fierce battles, for a moment, the people watching the battle outside, as well as those watching the live broadcast on television, were all somewhat confused.

“What are they doing? Why aren’t they attacking?”

“Doesn’t Bai Xu have illusory martial arts? Why isn’t he using them?”

“Could it be that both parties are wary of each other and are reserved as a result?”

Many martial artists could not tell Bai Xu’s situation, but some of the people in charge of commenting were senior martial artists. Although they might not be very strong, they must be very knowledgeable.

Some commentators analyzed that Bai Xu had already attacked and used illusory martial arts, but it seemed to be ineffective against Lin Feng.

“Illusory martial arts are indeed quite strong, but if they’re countered, they’re worthless.”

Hao Shiyi shook his head and said indifferently. Initially, he was a little worried about Lin Feng, but now, it seemed that Lin Feng’s mental will was stronger than he had imagined.

He could actually ignore Bai Xu’s illusion directly. How strong was such a mental will?

“Good, a mental will strong enough to ignore Bai Xu’s illusion. Young Lin Feng should have no problem entering the Divine Realm.”

Xia Laogui rubbed his hands together, his face filled with excitement.

Many martial artists could not undergo life transitions because they did not have enough mental power. However, it was the opposite for Lin Feng. His mental power was very strong, far stronger than ordinary martial artists.

However, it was not that easy for him to undergo a life transition. This was because he cultivated the pure form of cosmic cultivation system. If he wanted to condense the combat body, it would require very strong mental power. Otherwise, it would be impossible to use mental power to forcibly restructure the genes according to the combat body.

At the very least, Lin Feng’s mental power was far from reaching the level of a second life transition. Even if his opportunity came, and he could undergo life transition immediately, he still would not be able to cultivate the combat body.

However, with his current mental power, resisting Bai Xu’s illusory martial arts was a piece of cake.

“No, impossible! I don’t believe it. How can you ignore my illusion when you clearly have mental flaws? Eye of Illusion!”

Bai Xu’s expression became a little feral. He could not accept such a blow. He was extremely confident in his illusory martial arts and did not believe that Lin Feng could really ignore it.

Hence, Bai Xu did not hold back at all and unleashed all his Astral Power. At the same time, an eye emitting a hazy gray light gradually cracked open on his forehead.

Being stared at by this eye, Lin Feng felt the Mental Power Sphere in his mind rotate rapidly, releasing a large amount of mental power to protect his mind.

“Mental innate ability?”

Lin Feng was a little surprised. How could he not understand that the talent Bai Xu had awakened was clearly a mental innate ability?

This kind of innate ability was very rare.

Once this kind of mental innate ability was awakened, cultivating illusory martial arts would yield twice the results with half the effort, and was very easy. No wonder he chose to practice illusory martial arts, and had such high attainments in illusions.

If not for the fact that Lin Feng had condensed a Mental Power Sphere, it would probably be very difficult for Lin Feng’s mental will to resist Bai Xu’s illusion.

Seeing Bai Xu use the Eye of Illusion, even the Nine Sages were a little interested.

“Sage Yuanyi, this Bai Xu is from your Freelance Cultivators Union, right? He actually awakened an illusion-type innate ability. Not bad.” Elder Kang also praised.

Sage Yuanyi nodded and said, “That’s right. Bai Xu is a member of our Freelance Cultivators Union. Unfortunately, due to his past with the Bai family, he has some flaws in his temperament. If he cannot resolve these flaws, it will be difficult for him to even step into the Divine Realm.”

“Illusory martial artists in the Divine Realm are indeed rare. However, your Freelance Cultivators Union can discuss this matter with the consortium faction. Sage Batai is also here, so this is a suitable opportunity.”

Elder Kang was also willing to be this middleman. He was the pioneer of human martial artists, the first Sage, and had high prestige and status. At the same time, he wanted to do everything he could to improve the overall strength of humanity. Some benefits were not of much concern to him.

Even though Bai Xu was only a Metamorphic Realm martial artist, if he could grow into a Divine Realm martial artist, he would be a great weapon against those dire beasts in the future.

The advantage of illusory martial artists over intelligent life forms was simply too huge.

Sage Batai also nodded and said, “Since Elder Kang has said so, later, I’ll get someone to remind the Bai family to prioritize the greater picture. I hope this little fellow can resolve the flaws in his temperament.”

“Haha, that’s exactly what I want. I’ll thank Sage Batai on behalf of this little fellow first.”

Sage Yuanyi was also very happy. After all, Bai Xu was a genius of the Freelance Cultivators Union. If the Freelance Cultivators Union could produce a Divine Realm illusory martial artist in the future, it would be a great thing for the Freelance Cultivators Union as well.

“However, I think Lin Feng is even more impressive. Bai Xu has already used his mental innate ability, but he still can’t make Lin Feng fall into an illusion. This little fellow’s mental will is very strong.”

The Invincible Fist Sage, on the other hand, thought more highly of Lin Feng. However, the other Sages also nodded. Lin Feng was indeed better. Not everyone could remain steady as a rock in the illusions as terrifying as the ones Bai Xu deployed.

“How can it be completely useless?”

Bai Xu used the Eye of Illusion, but saw that Lin Feng’s expression was unchanged. It was obvious that it was useless against Lin Feng.

“Bai Xu, your illusions are useless against me. It’s my turn next!”

Lin Feng looked at Bai Xu’s increasingly pale face and shook his head. He actually felt a little disappointed.

Initially, he wanted to see how miraculous Bai Xu’s illusion was. However, from the looks of it, Bai Xu’s illusion was useless against him. It was just too disappointing.

Since Bai Xu’s illusion had failed, Lin Feng would not stand on ceremony now. It was his turn next.

“Void Bubble!”

The magnificent Void Bubble instantly enveloped Bai Xu.

Bai Xu was an illusory martial artist himself, so he was naturally not bewitched by the Void Bubble. However, being enveloped by the Void Bubble and sensing the terrifying power contained within, he knew that this time, he had lost.

“Collapse!”

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, the beautiful void bubble instantly collapsed. Bai Xu’s figure was reduced to ashes.

On the big screen, Bai Xu’s name disappeared. Lin Feng’s ranking also rose to 37th!

This heavyweight battle ended with Lin Feng’s victory and Bai Xu’s elimination!
