Chapter 88: What a Huge Palm!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Feng was also shocked. That fiery cloud seemed to be burning in the sky. Even from afar, he could feel the heat.

Being able to blot out the sky and sun was not something that he could comprehend. It was rumored that the Nine Sages presided over the depths of the Outland, and every single one of them possessed unparalleled destructive power.

In the past, he hadn’t quite believed it. However, now that he saw this astonishing phenomenon, even if he didn’t believe it, he still felt a faint reverence for a Sage.

Not only Lin Feng, but everyone in the world who saw this through the lens was shocked from the bottom of their hearts.

There was almost no one in the world who did not know the names of the Sages, who presided over the depths of the Outland. Although their reputation spread throughout the world, very few people had actually seen them.

Witnessing the “power” of these Sages was even further beyond their reach. Only now, seeing that the sky illuminated in crimson like a flaming cloud, did they gasp in wonder at the power of Sages. It was simply incredible.

With the arrival of a Sage, perhaps the crisis in Dragonlith City would now be resolved.

Whoosh.

The huge fireball landed like a falling meteor. However, when it was one meter away from the ground, the huge fireball suddenly stopped and floated silently in the air without moving.

Lin Feng’s eyes suddenly focused. His speed was also very fast, and he had even reached the speed of sound previously. However, compared to the speed of the Invincible Fist Sage, his speed was insignificant.

Lin Feng knew how much power it would take to come to a halt all of a sudden at such a fast speed. At the very least, Lin Feng could not do it in the present. His strength might be powerful, but he could not control and release it as freely as the Invincible Fist Sage.

The flames on the fireball slowly dissipated, revealing a middle-aged man in a fiery red martial arts uniform.

The man was very tall, almost 1.9 meters in height. He had close-cropped hair, giving him a very valiant appearance. The flames around his body just now seemed to have no effect on his clothes and hair.

This valiant middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties or forties was the founder of the Myriad Academy, one of the Nine Sages of the world. He was already more than 400 years old.

It was no secret that Sages lived a long life. Once they broke the genetic lock, underwent life transitions, and had increased cell activity, their lifespans would basically exceed 200 years.

The man in the fiery red martial arts uniform was none other than the Invincible Fist Sage, one of the Nine Sages of the world! He was tall, sturdy, and had sharp eyes. With vigorous strides, he appeared before Lin Feng and the others.

“Long Duo, wasn’t your Dragonlith City under siege from dire beasts and in imminent danger? Why does it seem not that serious now?”

After the Invincible Fist Sage descended, his first reaction was confusion. Wasn’t he informed that Dragonlith City was in imminent danger? He had even rushed over as quickly as possible. However, from the looks of it, Dragonlith City had not fallen. Instead, even Long Duo was alive and well.

Long Duo hurriedly said, “Lord Sage, we were indeed in imminent danger earlier. However, thanks to Lin Feng breaking the genetic lock at the critical moment, he saved us and the entire three million citizens of Dragonlith City!”

“Lin Feng saved you, and he had just broken the genetic lock?”

The Invincible Fist Sage saw Lin Feng at a glance. With his insight, he could naturally tell that Lin Feng’s body was still constantly metamorphosing, and the speed of metamorphosis was very rapid.

“Eh? You’ve mastered the first three levels of Nonuple Body Tempering with three Spiral Forces?”

Lin Feng had a feeling of being seen through. Before the pinnacle existence among martial artists of the entire human world, Lin Feng was genuinely afraid that the Invincible Fist Sage would see through the four types of fused dire beast genes in his body.

This was a secret that belonged solely to him. If the secret was seen through, he did not know what would happen.

Fortunately, the Invincible Fist Sage could not see through the dire beast genes fused within his body, and could only see the Nonuple Body Tempering that he had practiced. After all, this was a martial art created by the Invincible Fist Sage, so it was naturally obvious at a glance to him.

‘Yes, Dean. I purchased the first three levels of the Nonuple Body Tempering you created and was lucky enough to master it.”

“You call me Dean? Not bad. Very few people call me that anymore. Interesting little fellow.”

The Invincible Fist Sage nodded, clearly very satisfied with Lin Feng’s answer.

Sages like the Invincible Fist Sage actually had many identities, such as the Sage, the Supreme Marshal of the Department of Armed Forces, the Dean of Myriad Academy, and so on. However, the Invincible Fist Sage’s favorite title was still the Dean of Myriad Academy.

Even now, the Invincible Fist Sage was still the dean of the Myriad Academy. However, he did not deal with the academy’s matters specifically anymore, and left it to the other vice-deans.

“Dean, the crisis in Dragonlith City has not actually been resolved. Those dire beasts have only temporarily retreated. They have yet to give up and are entrenched not far away from the city. Commander Long Duo and the other inhuman experts have already done their best. Out of the 16 inhuman experts, only eight remain, and of the thousands of martial artists, only two or three hundred remain. Although I broke the genetic lock and could repel those dire beasts and demons, those demons have an undying characteristic. I can’t kill them, either.”

With Lin Feng’s explanation, the Invincible Fist Sage finally understood how devastating this battle was. There were many dire beast corpses left outside the city, but not many martial artists’ corpses. He did not expect it to be so devastating.

The corpses of those martial artists had all been devoured by the dire beasts. It was only natural that the Invincible Fist Sage could not see them.

“That’s right, Lord Sage. Those dire beasts are a species of dire beasts that we have never discovered before. Basically, we are certain that they are Predators, but they are an unknown type of Predators. They possess terrifying regenerative abilities and parasitic abilities, and the demons among them are practically undying.”

Chief Commander Long Duo had a bitter expression on his face as well. There was nothing he could do against such difficult dire beasts. Even if the eight inhuman experts had self-destructed and died earlier, it hadn’t actually inflicted much damage upon those demons.

At the mention of the dire beasts, everyone’s heart was heavy.

Lin Feng’s previous performance had already been very strong, and he had even suppressed those demons. But even so, what was the outcome? Those demons were impossible to kill. Up until now, not a single one of the 30 demons had died, and only some cannon fodder dire beasts had died. To the dire beasts, there was no loss at all.

Even if they deployed more martial artists, there was still the parasitism to fear. After all, up till now, they still didn’t know the parasitic method and pathways of these dire beasts. Of those of them who survived, there was a possibility that some of them were already parasitized, and they would immediately turn into dire beasts at the onset.

Between their inability to ask for reinforcements in the form of a great number of martial artists, and those dire beasts being impossible to kill, this kind of situation spelled almost certain death.

Even if a Sage came, how many demons could one person kill?

“All right, it’s best if those dire beasts haven’t retreated yet. That way, I won’t have to chase after them again. Let me see if they’re really undying.”

With that said, the Invincible Fist Sage took a step forward and flew into the air.

Lin Feng frowned. He felt that the Invincible Fist Sage was a little nonchalant. Like, he didn’t take it seriously, and was a little rash. Could he deal with those dire beasts and demons alone?

Forget about demons, there were tens of thousands of dire beasts, and also 30 demons with the undying characteristic.

Just as Lin Feng was feeling that this Invincible Fist Sage was a little unreliable, the Invincible Fist Sage stood in the air and gently extended his hand.

Buzz.

In that instant, it was as if the sun had been blotted out. The world spun and turned dark all of a sudden. Unknowingly, the sky had already been covered by a huge dark cloud. No, those were not dark clouds, but… a palm!

“What a huge palm…”

Lin Feng muttered in a low voice. His eyes were also somewhat dazed, as if he was experiencing unprecedented shock..
