Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along
Chapter 674 - 208: Coronation, Charging Forward for Great Xia
"You can dodge for a while, but not forever."
"The fact that Wu Changfeng died by my hands will inevitably be known by the Wu Family."
"With my current power, I can’t confront the Wu Family. To find the safest protection under their oppression, I must return to Alliance Star and obtain a more advanced license, letting the Alliance and major families recognize my potential."
"Even if the Wu Family learns I’m building a Heavenly Dao Foundation and tries to trouble me, I have no choice."
"Because of me, the Great Xia Kingdom and the Qin Family have been targeted by the Wu Family. The Great Xia loses its various resource subsidies, and the Qin Family loses control of the South Heaven Gate Array."
"Since I’ve already broken ties with the Wu Family, as long as I take the assessment on Alliance Star, the Wu Family will quickly learn of my Heavenly Dao Foundation. So, why not help the Great Xia reclaim resources and assist the Qin Family in regaining control of the South Heaven Gate Array before I go?"
Zhang Lingfeng put away the Soul Suppressing Talisman, holding the Reincarnation Spear, and his mind raced.
The Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment realm, with 100% Spiritual Power and Heaven and Earth Harmony Index, and transformed Divine Thought at the eighth grade, each data point gives Zhang Lingfeng a new speed of thinking.
Many previously unclear problems suddenly became clear.
His current situation and what he should do became instantly evident to Zhang Lingfeng.
The Wu Family is already on his head. Continuing to endure and evolve in the shadows will only further embolden the Wu Family, eventually leading to endless troubles for himself.
Only by striking back fiercely and standing firm, raising his license level, gaining Alliance protection, and obtaining more family resources can he make the Wu Family restrain themselves.
Of course, the best solution is to find a family force willing to confront the Wu Family, to the point of creating an unresolvable conflict for his protection.
He thought of the Liu Family.
A three-star license with Qi Refining Realm strength can only make him a pawn in the Liu Family’s calculations against the Wu Family.
But if he has the Five Elements Symbol and possesses Heavenly Dao Foundation strength, that’s a different story.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lingfeng motivated his Origin Power, stepping through the Star Gate, flying back toward the Great Xia Kingdom.
Heavenly Dao Foundation—those four words mean the Dao Platform is thoroughly perfected, Spiritual Essence transforms into Heavenly Dao True Essence, which can directly crush others’ Origin Power, more effective than Super Divine Telekinesis.
Simultaneously, his own Origin is impenetrable, aligning with a 100% Heaven and Earth Harmony Index; trying to crush his Origin with True Essence by a peer is another extreme.
Zhang Lingfeng hasn’t had time to ponder or explore the difference between Heavenly Dao True Essence and Spiritual Essence, or the mysterious gap between Dao Platform and Dao Field, but when the Dao Platform emerged and Spiritual Essence was sublimated, Zhang Lingfeng felt a new level of integration with Heaven and Earth.
It felt like the Heaven and Earth Harmony Index reached 100%, making the Origin Power his life’s blood, and upon that foundation, further sublimated from blood to soul. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
In that instant, Zhang Lingfeng felt he could dominate everything.
Even without mastering the Five Elements Symbol, Zhang Lingfeng felt he could now crush Wu Changfeng with a single hand due to his mastery over his Origin.
The boundary between Human Dao and Heavenly Dao is indelible. Between the two, whether in True Essence strength or in Origin Power absorption and control, there are vast differences.
It’s like the eighth-level Dharma Power.
One only possesses Skin Phase cultivation, while the other has Divine Phase power. Although both are Dharma Martial Artists, the combat power of the former may only be 40.0, while the latter could be 10000.0—a difference so vast it’s clear without words.
That’s also why the children of major families strive to forge an unparalleled Foundation Establishment realm.
Even exhausting all cultivation resources is worth it to be superior in the Foundation Establishment realm.
Unfortunately, achieving a Heavenly Dao Foundation is too difficult; a 100% Heaven and Earth Harmony Index alone blocks countless people, even Hao Yuchen, who became a Super Divine Mind Master at twenty-one, is rumored to only have the power of a Divine Dao Foundation.
This shows how challenging it is to achieve a Heavenly Dao Foundation in the Black Water Star Realm. Once the Alliance knows Zhang Lingfeng has such power at his age, how will they favor him, and what will the Wu Family think?
Currently, Zhang Lingfeng is full of hope for the future.
He takes a step through the Star Gate.
One hundred percent harmony index and Heavenly Dao Foundation strength made his step silent as a breeze; those who could capture his power fluctuations and aura changes on Ancient Blue Star could be counted on one hand.
In the past, traveling between the Great Xia Kingdom and the Star Gate required riding an airship; now, with the Heavenly Dao Foundation strength and Heaven and Earth Origin Power at his disposal, Zhang Lingfeng’s flight speed, at full throttle, surpasses those of lower-level interstellar battleships, not to mention the airships controlled by major family members on Ancient Blue Star.
In less than two hours, Zhang Lingfeng returned to the Great Xia Kingdom.
He estimated that with his current strength, circling the entire Ancient Blue Star might only take ten hours, something unimaginable before.
This also shows how massive the resource-poor Ancient Blue Star is, many times larger than the Earth of his previous life.
Yet such a planet is still a very small presence in the Black Water Star Realm, worlds apart from Titan Star or White Martial Star.
Zhang Lingfeng silently entered the Great Xia Country Lord’s Mansion.
He quickly detected familiar auras.
