"Isn't that the territory of the Vulture Gang?"

"Look, the fire is huge!"

"Why hasn't anyone run out? Could they all have burned to death?"

...

"What a relief, finally the heavens have punished these wicked beasts!"

"They deserve it! Bullying the weak and fearing the strong, I wish I could skin them alive and drink their blood. These scoundrels only oppress us common people!"

"Those who walk by the river often get their shoes wet. The Vulture Gang must have provoked someone they shouldn't have this time."

...

In the civilian district, a sudden fire descended on this dark night.

Lin Feng stood in the crowd, inconspicuous, gazing at the flames that enveloped the night sky, his heart calm. There was no need for mercy or sympathy; killing these wolves was like saving many common people, not to mention that the Vulture Gang's existence was a time bomb for him.

Revenge must be taken, and debts must be repaid.

A man should be like this.

"The police are really slow." Lin Feng's gaze turned to the distance. It took a full ten minutes for the guards to arrive. With the speed of the magnetic levitation cars, they should have been able to reach any part of the Sun District within three minutes. The reason for the delay was clear.

"Thank me for removing a thorn in your side." Lin Feng smiled faintly and turned to leave.

The fire had already burned everything to ashes, and with Lin Feng's caution, he naturally left no trace.

Moreover, would the guards really investigate thoroughly?

"The next one is you." Lin Feng's eyes gleamed with determination.

He quickly disappeared into the darkness.

...

In the Sun District, a luxurious garden villa.

"Dead, dead?"

"The entire Vulture Gang is dead..."

Shi Wenlong's mouth hung open in shock, unable to close it for a long time.

His trembling body filled with fear, Shi Wenlong's eyes flashed with the image of Lin Feng, the laser knife that haunted his nightmares, and he shook his head. Suddenly, Shi Wenlong looked out the window in horror, as if he could see Lin Feng's shadow in the darkness, and he shrank to the edge of the bed, screaming, "Help, someone, help!"

"Master!"

"What's wrong, Master!"

"Someone, come protect Master!"

...

Killing Shi Wenlong?

Lin Feng would not be so rash.

Unlike the Vulture Gang, killing Shi Wenlong was very difficult.

One was a notorious gang that even the police district wanted to eliminate, while the other was a wealthy family with close ties to the police inspector.

Not to mention the difference in the defense of their residences. The Vulture Gang's base was in the civilian district, chaotic and with countless deaths every day; while Shi Wenlong lived in a high-end garden villa, guarded by police and monitored by wireless cameras with no blind spots. Even if one could get in, they might not be able to get out.

Lin Feng was not that foolish.

There were plenty of opportunities for revenge.

He was very strong now!

"The strength of the Vulture is even greater than that of the gray-robed old man using the Fire Palm." Lin Feng originally planned to break through the threshold first before seeking revenge. After all, there was a huge difference between 9.99% and 10.00% brain domain width, like crossing from one step to another, which would greatly enhance his strength.

But the control of the small sphere's energy changed his mind.

The facts proved that his judgment was correct.

"Indeed, the path of the ancient martial artist is truly the most suitable for me." Lin Feng smiled faintly. As a gene warrior, he could barely surpass the gray-robed old man; but as an ancient martial artist, he could kill the Vulture with one move when fully unleashed. The difference was obvious.

And this was just the beginning.

Now, he was essentially an ancient martial artist in the guise of a gene warrior.

※※※

Cultivation!

Having enough strength to better protect his family!

Lin Feng had always known what he should do.

First, become an ancient martial artist!

"Exhale, inhale~" Lin Feng practiced the Nine Dragon True Scripture, the dense energy of heaven and earth gathered around him, but he could not absorb even a bit more. It was like a basin full of water; no matter how much more water was poured in, the result would be the same.

9.99% brain domain width!

The threshold!

"Choose either the Force Spirit or the Central Spirit."

"The Force Spirit enhances strength; activating the Force Spirit will greatly increase strength; activating the Central Spirit will greatly enhance the body's resistance, toughness, and vitality."

Lin Feng was very clear about the cultivation system of ancient martial artists.

Unlike gene warriors, whose brain domain width naturally increases, ancient martial artists face many 'obstacles' in their brain domain width increase, such as 9.99%, 19.99%, 29.99%...

The key was to break through these spirits.

"In the fourth era of the previous age, people had already begun using this method."

"Back then, 'breaking through the spirits' was called 'unblocking the Ren and Du meridians.' Gathering energy in the dantian, when cultivation reaches its limit, one can attempt to unblock one of the Ren or Du meridians. Each meridian opened increases the brain domain width, and when both are fully open, the Force and Central Spirits are activated, and the brain domain width can reach 30%."

"In the ancient Three Kingdoms period, countless brave warriors appeared, many of whom had activated the Force Spirit, and some had even activated both the Force and Central Spirits."

Two meridians lead directly to the dantian.

These are the two easiest spirits to activate.

"Let's try it." Lin Feng was not in a hurry, nor could he be. Activating the spirits was not something that could be completed in a short time. Breaking through each major acupoint and unblocking each fine branch meridian required patience and a steady supply of heaven and earth energy, taking anywhere from a few days to several years.

Of course, the chances of an ancient martial artist crossing the threshold were relatively high. With patience, about half of ancient martial artists could cross the threshold.

"Flowing Cloud Technique!" Lin Feng sank his energy into the dantian and quickly performed the Flowing Cloud Technique, his mind clear and focused, controlling the heaven and earth energy to target the Force Spirit meridian. Among the Ren and Du meridians, Lin Feng preferred the Force Spirit meridian. Compared to enhancing defense, increasing strength was more beneficial for combat.

"To break through, I need to open three major acupoints and thirteen minor ones."

"The further along, the greater the pressure, and the harder it is to break through the spirits."

"Compared to other ancient martial artists, I absorb and recover heaven and earth energy much faster."

Lin Feng thought.

This was very important.

The stored heaven and earth energy in his body was only a small part compared to what was needed to break through the spirits. More reliance was on continuous absorption and breaking through, then more absorption and more breaking through. It was like a long-distance run; the start was just the beginning, the key...

Was still ahead.

...

Snap! Inside his body, it felt like a lock was opened.

The heaven and earth energy broke through the first obstacle and, under the control of the Flowing Cloud Technique, targeted the second acupoint. Just starting to break through the spirits, Lin Feng was not in a hurry. Compared to the Nine Dragon True Scripture, the Flowing Cloud Technique had a more precise and detailed control over heaven and earth energy, not because he mastered it better, but because the amount controlled was less.

The difference in control of heaven and earth energy between the two techniques was tenfold!

Five minutes.

Ten minutes.

...

The time to open each acupoint was increasing.

Each acupoint was like a pivot, connecting countless large and small meridians in the body. Even with precise control of heaven and earth energy, energy consumption was inevitable when passing through acupoints, including the meridians' own weak absorption ability and self-repair function.

"Almost there." Lin Feng felt the emptiness in his dantian and had a basic understanding of the process of breaking through the spirits.

Theory and practice are two different things, like commanding a war; there are many who can only talk the talk.

"No wonder the supercomputer data shows that even top-notch ancient martial artists need several days to break through the threshold." Lin Feng had been a bit confused before, but now he understood clearly. There were many key points in breaking through the spirits, such as techniques for opening acupoints and control of heaven and earth energy, but the most critical point was—

The perception and absorption of heaven and earth energy.

"The faster the perception and absorption, the less time it takes to break through the spirits." Lin Feng was clear.

As the heaven and earth energy in his dantian was depleted, he would truly embark on a long-distance run, using the mind technique to absorb heaven and earth energy to break through the spirits.

"Nine Dragon True Scripture." A giant dragon's image appeared behind Lin Feng.

...

Ten times faster!

The difference between the Flowing Cloud Technique and the Nine Dragon True Scripture was evident.

One was a low-level mind technique, the other a yellow-grade mind technique, and their control over heaven and earth energy was not on the same level.

"No wonder ancient martial artists are so eager for mind techniques." Lin Feng now deeply understood the importance of mind techniques, which not only affected cultivation speed and combat strength but also the speed of breaking through the spirits. If he used the Flowing Cloud Technique, it would take at least two months to break through the Force Spirit.

But using the Nine Dragon True Scripture was different.

"At this speed, I should be able to cross the threshold in less than three days." Lin Feng was very satisfied. Under the control of the Nine Dragon True Scripture, the heaven and earth energy surged forward, and although the precision of control was not as good as the Flowing Cloud Technique, it would improve with practice.

Four, five, six...

One by one, the acupoints were opened, and suddenly, Lin Feng paused.

He seemed to have overlooked something?
