Super Soldier in Campus-Chapter 782 - 787: Breaking through the Fourth Layer of Inner Strength_1

At that time, Lin Feng had been a bit indignant and even proposed a PK with Ling Yun. Ling Yun was eager to let Lin Feng learn a lesson. However, due to an urgent mission, the duel didn’t happen. Later, during a mission, Lin Feng witnessed Ling Yun’s superior hiding skills. After that, he cunningly avoided mentioning the duel again, and Ling Yun never found a chance to put Lin Feng in his place.

Thinking about it now, if I had let Ling Yun win back then, he probably wouldn’t have ended up down that path... Lin Feng sighed, shaking his head.

However, for now, I have to learn this Five Elements Escape Technique... If the technique really is so amazing, why should I fear a one-on-one fight with other snipers? With a smile, Lin Feng flipped open the first page of the book titled "Five Elements Escape Technique." Then, his smile froze on his face.

It wasn’t because this secret manual was fake, but because a line of small text on the title page stated, "Cultivators who have not reached the Innate Realm must not practice this technique..."

Bloody hell, isn’t this a scam?! Lin Feng felt his heart ache. He had spent three million on this secret manual but couldn’t cultivate it because his cultivation level was insufficient.

Unwilling to give up, Lin Feng continued to flip through the pages. Sure enough, he saw another warning: "The Five Elements Escape Technique requires the user to simulate the circulation of Five Element Essence with their own Innate Inner Strength. Those who have not reached the Innate Realm and forcibly cultivate it may suffer unexpected and horrific consequences. These include, but are not limited to, incomplete activation of the Escape Technique or the inability to reverse it after use..."

Incomplete activation? Does that mean I might only transform halfway? Like, my lower body turns into grass while my upper body remains human? And inability to reverse it... does that mean I can’t change back into a human? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Damn, this secret manual seems designed to harm people! Just imagining such terrifying consequences sent a cold chill down Lin Feng’s spine.

After much hesitation, Lin Feng finally put down the "Five Elements Escape Technique" and turned his attention to the other book, "Mystery Extension Technique."

Luckily, this Mystery Deduction Technique didn’t set any cultivation threshold. But just a glance at it made Lin Feng feel dizzy. This book seemed similar to the Book of Changes, but its contents were vastly more complex.

Simply put, Mystery Deduction involved gathering information about a series of celestial phenomena occurring at the time of a specific event, as well as the psychological state of the people involved. It would then deduce the option most closely aligning with the truth from all possibilities.

To give a simple example: if a neighbor’s child suddenly ran away from home and Lin Feng wanted to deduce the child’s possible direction, he would first need to understand all the surrounding environmental information. He would also need to know about the child’s recent relationships and the reasons for running away. Only then could he deduce the child’s probable location.

Of course, this was just the simplest example. This Mystery Deduction Technique was incredibly profound. It included not only standard logical analysis but also deep metaphysical content. With his current abilities, Lin Feng could only memorize all the content from the secret manual for now and study it thoroughly later. He estimated it would take him at least a month to fully comprehend it.

The Mystery Deduction Technique was priced more than twice as high as the Five Elements Escape Technique, so it probably wasn’t a useless skill. However, Lin Feng had not yet witnessed the true wonders of the Mystery Deduction Technique, so he didn’t feel a strong urgency to master it.

I really want to master the Five Elements Escape Technique quickly and try out the effects of the other four types of Escape Techniques... Lin Feng glanced at the "Five Elements Escape Technique" with a mixture of eagerness and helplessness. He gritted his teeth, secretly vowing to himself that he must improve his cultivation as soon as possible!

Lin Feng had now reached the peak of the third layer of Inner Strength. He remembered the white-bearded old man mentioning that the Yin Yang Life Changing Needle could help break through bottlenecks. Maybe I can give it a try...

Preparing to attempt his breakthrough, Lin Feng first lay on the bed, calming his mind and nourishing his spirit for over half an hour. Then, he rose and sat cross-legged on the bed. He took out an acupuncture Silver Needle, placed it beside him, and entered a meditative state for cultivation.

Lin Feng first circulated his cultivation method to replenish his depleted Inner Strength. Soon, the Inner Strength in his body reached a point where it was about to overflow. A faint white mist began to rise from the top of his head – a peculiar sight caused by the excess Inner Strength radiating outwards and causing the water vapor in the air to condense.

At this moment, Lin Feng began to use the Yin Yang Life Changing Needle, carefully following the method for reinforcing the foundation as he applied the needle to the scalp acupoint on the crown of his head.

HUM... The moment Lin Feng inserted the needle, he suddenly heard a strange sound in his ears.

His meridians, originally brimming with energy, instantly felt as empty as a vast canyon. Immense amounts of free-roaming energy in the air surged into his body from all directions.

This sudden phenomenon startled Lin Feng! He had never experienced such a rapid absorption of free-roaming energy. It was as if his body had instantly transformed into a vortex, drawing in the ambient energy without any resistance. For a terrifying moment, Lin Feng felt he was on the verge of cultivation deviation, that his body might explode. He immediately slowed his cultivation speed, carefully controlling the influx of free-roaming energy into his meridians.

He didn’t know if the Yin Yang Life Changing Needle’s effect was too potent or if he had used it incorrectly. Even though he had slowed his cultivation speed, the surrounding energy continued to pour relentlessly into his body, merely at a slightly reduced rate. Before long, Lin Feng felt his body become saturated with energy, filled to its absolute limit!

Yet, the free-roaming energy in the air was still being forcibly crammed into his body, with a brutal momentum that seemed determined to persist until he was dead!

Cold sweat beaded on Lin Feng’s forehead. What’s happening? This has never occurred before! Don’t tell me I’m actually going to die like this...

At this moment, Lin Feng felt as if his body had become a magnet, ceaselessly absorbing the energy surging toward him from the surroundings.

"Damn it...!" Lin Feng cursed aloud, feeling as if he was about to explode.

BOOM! Lin Feng heard a deafening roar in his ears. Then, his body, unable to withstand the immense energy any longer, felt as if it had exploded. The clothes he was wearing were instantly blasted into shreds, scattering and fluttering to the ground like confetti.

"Shit... I..." Just as Lin Feng thought he was a goner, he suddenly realized he wasn’t dead. Instead, an indescribable sense of comfort permeated every cell of his naked body. Although his limbs felt slightly numb, an abundant Inner Strength, carrying terrifying fluctuations, was now rampantly surging through him.

Did I just break through to the fourth layer of Inner Strength? Lin Feng looked at his hands and murmured in disbelief.
