Permanent Martial Arts

in Feng to death.

Unfortunately, he was at the frontline.
Even Divine Realm martial artists could not leave easily.
Now that the Global Martial Arts Competition had begun, Zhang Zifeng had actually discovered Lin Feng.

Moreover, Lin Feng was in the limelight in the Global Martial Arts Competition.
He was ranked second in the elimination rounds, and was very likely to be first in the qualifying rounds!

Compared to Lin Feng’s boundless glory, how could he, a dignified Divine Realm martial artist living in such a sorry state, not hate Lin Feng for it?

“Lin Feng, all of this is because of you! Heh, in only nine months, you’ve already become a Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist.
Who would believe that you don’t have any secrets? The five major factions aren’t the only ones who hold the reins in this world.
Where light is, there darkness will be also.
Heh…”

A trace of coldness appeared in Zhang Zifeng’s eyes.

…

“Huh?”

Elder Kang’s expression suddenly changed slightly, as if he had received some news.

“Elder Kang, what happened?”

Sage Yuanyi was on very good terms with Elder Kang.
He could tell at a glance that something was up with Elder Kang.

Elder Kang’s expression gradually darkened.
He said coldly, “Some rats have noticed Lin Feng.”

Sage Yuanyi’s expression also darkened.
He naturally knew what Elder Kang meant.

Although the entire human world was controlled by the five major factions and the Nine Sages, it was impossible for them to really control human nature! Human nature was the most complex thing of all.
Light coexisted with darkness.

Not all martial artists, and not all Divine Realm or Meta-divine Realm experts, were dedicated to all of humanity.
They wandered on the edge of darkness and light.
They only thought about their own martial path and life transitions.

Humanity and justice meant nothing to them.

Some people noticed that Lin Feng had broken through to the Third Level of Metamorphic Realm in nine months.
This speed had already broken the record set by Dongfang Sheng, which was one year and three months.

Some people also noticed how Lin Feng’s mental power was incredibly strong.
Those martial artists who knew about the Void Bubble also vaguely coveted Lin Feng, and felt that there might be Lin Feng might be carrying some unknown secrets.

Just because the Sages did not care did not mean that the other Divine Realm and Meta-divine Realm martial artists did not as well.

There were even people who had paid the same attention to Dongfang Sheng before.
Back then, Dongfang Sheng was extraordinarily talented.
He had also encountered a few crises, but resolved all of them eventually.

Elder Kang also told this news to the Invincible Fist Sage.

The Invincible Fist Sage snorted coldly and said, “Those shady rats, don’t let me find out who they are.
Otherwise, I’ll personally wipe them out!”

However, even the Invincible Fist Sage could only make a vicious statement.

Why? It’s because there was no way to find them at all.
Those martial artists hiding in the dark might actually be a Divine Realm martial artist fighting with dire beasts at the frontline in their real identity.

However, in the dark, they might appear with another identity and face.
Where light is, there darkness will be also.
Even the Nine Sages and the five major factions could not possibly eliminate this situation completely.

“Invincible, get some experts from your academic faction to watch over Lin Feng’s family.
Nothing must happen to his family.
As for Lin Feng, he is in the Global Martial Arts Competition.
He’ll be fine for the time being.”

The other Sages also nodded in agreement.
Lin Feng was only a Metamorphic Realm martial artist.
He was already very fortunate to receive the attention of Sages.
After all, the Nine Sages were all guarding the depths of the Outland.
They would not leave easily unless there was a major upheaval.

“He has to deal with some hardships himself…”

With that, Elder Kang closed his eyes again.
He knew very well that Lin Feng’s future situation would be rather perilous, but wasn’t this also a path that a genius martial artist had to experience?

Back then, Dongfang Sheng and many other geniuses had all grown with such hardships.
The Sages could give them some help, but they could not help them at all times.

The path of martial arts ultimately relied on oneself!
