Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 796: Chapter 599: Bullying the Weak with Strength

For Alice, "Second Incarnation" is her pride and the only thing among the many mentors that she can present.

Such a precious secret skill, yet not a single student is willing to learn it. She felt somewhat disappointed in her heart, though she did not show it in front of the students.

She is a mentor and cannot lose composure in front of her students.

However, "Second Incarnation" is not as insignificant as the students imagine.

As the creator of this secret skill, Alice is very clear about its potential.

Although the Second Incarnation, like the Life Soul, lacks intelligence, like a puppet, requiring control by a Demon Spirit Master.

But as long as it’s used properly and one gets accustomed to the dual-tasking combat style, it can unleash great power.

Other than lacking intelligence and having slightly weaker power, the Second Incarnation is essentially no different from an Extraordinary’s external incarnation.

Her previous words were not empty promises.

Once this secret skill is learned, the difficulty of breaking through the extraordinary realm in the future will be greatly reduced. This is also why other mentors, including the Martial Emperor mentors, are interested in it.

It’s just that the cultivation process is indeed very dangerous.

While explaining this secret skill, Alice’s gaze swept over Lin Feng several times.

She could sense Lin Feng’s shock towards this secret skill. Compared to other students, Lin Feng is more concerned about this secret skill, but he also has no intention of learning it.

"Ah."

Alice sighed slightly in her heart.

Among the thirty students, if one were to choose the most likely to learn this secret skill, that person would definitely be Lin Feng.

If even he gives up, then there’s truly no one left.

"If not for the secret skill, why would Lin Feng choose me as his mentor?" Alice looked at Lin Feng, filled with confusion.

Originally, she thought Lin Feng became her apprentice because of the secret skill, but now it seems not to be the case. Could it be as rumored?

Upon thinking of this, Alice felt somewhat vexed.

She withdrew her gaze, calmed her mood, and continued to lecture:

"Most of you are at the peak of the Ninth Grade. Although the peak of the Ninth Grade seems infinitely close to becoming a king, many people, until death, fail to become a king. For a Martial Artist to break through to Martial King, a pocket world must be developed within the body. This is a long process, and not something that can be accomplished with time alone. For a Demon Spirit Master, transforming the demon spirit into a life soul is even harder than developing a pocket world..."

Although her strength is at the bottom among the mentors, Alice is after all a middle-ranked Spirit King, capable of creating such a precious secret skill. Her perspective and cultivation experience are not something students can compare to.

Compared to others who have emperor figures backing them, Lin Feng is particularly diligent, occasionally taking notes to record key points.

This was all knowledge he previously could hardly access. The university courses did not teach, nor mention it at all. Without the King-Building Plan, learning from a king would not be so easy.

Even if one had the money and connections to learn, it wouldn’t be explained as meticulously as by Alice.

Lin Feng cherishes such opportunities very much.

After a two-hour class, without a break, everyone left the classroom and arrived at the boundless desert.

At this time, many mentors were also teaching in the desert.

Bringing the students to a spacious place, Alice held a notebook and had the students fight in pairs. She needed to understand the students’ strength levels and combat styles before she could formulate a detailed teaching plan.

After watching for a while, Alice felt quite a headache.

Because of her unique admission conditions, her students included both those walking the Martial Arts path and those walking the Demon Spirit Master path, with various attributes and combat professions, making it very chaotic.

The chaotic result was the inability to unify teaching, leading to an enormous future workload.

Although they apprenticed through connections, those who persisted until the Second Plan were definitely not weak. The battles were back and forth and quite intense.

When it was He Jun and Chen Dali’s turn to battle, the former was instantly defeated with one move, leaving Alice somewhat bewildered.

"Instant defeat?"

Chen Dali was also confused.

He hadn’t even warmed up yet!

Chen Dali looked at Lin Feng, wondering if he was being too unforgiving to Lin Feng, after all, He Jun was a member of the Avengers Alliance.

In the future, if he wanted to join the Alliance, offending both of them would not bode well for his future.

Knowing He Jun was so weak, fighting for at least a dozen rounds would have been better.

"You haven’t fought anyone before, have you? Aren’t you a Demon Spirit Master? Why didn’t you use a soul skill?"

Alice looked at He Jun and asked a string of three questions.

Among her students, Lin Feng is the most unique existence, followed by He Jun.

It’s rumored that this little girl refined a sacrifice-type demon spirit, and it is precisely because of her presence that Lin Feng and the others could improve so quickly in strength.

A 21-year-old Ninth Grade, completely unimaginable.

Alice originally thought He Jun was one of the main forces in the Avengers Alliance, yet she never expected her combat power to be so weak, with mere physical aptitude and no actual combat experience.

With the Avenger Alliance’s record, its members should be battle-hardened, far surpassing other students.

"My demon spirit cannot absorb soul skills, and I rarely fight."

Under everyone’s astonished gazes, He Jun said, somewhat embarrassed.

Not surviving even one move was truly embarrassing. If Alice hadn’t intervened in time, she might have gotten hurt.

He Jun looked at Lin Feng, who gave a helpless smile.

In the alliance, He Jun is the most important protection target, always under someone’s guard, with very few opportunities to fight.

Lin Feng also plans to let He Jun fight, but that too is under the care of teammates, against some demon beasts or lone abnormals.

Those opponents are all weaker than He Jun, incomparable to Chen Dali.

Being a royal child, although Chen Dali’s power ranks at the bottom among the students, his soul skill level and martial skills far exceed those of average students.

"Unable to absorb soul skills?"

Alice was speechless for a long time, this was completely different from what she had imagined.

From this perspective, He Jun is indeed special.

She had never heard of a Demon Spirit unable to absorb Soul Skills?

Even the lowest level one-tier Demon Spirit, even with an extremely low success rate in absorbing Soul Skills, can absorb Soul Skills.

"For now, focus on basic training these days, and I’ll prepare a training plan for you later."

"Thank you, Master."

He Jun nodded repeatedly in gratitude.

Alice shifted her gaze to Lin Feng: "You shall fight me."

The other students had a significant power disparity with Lin Feng, making sparring meaningless.

"Please instruct me, Master."

Lin Feng bowed slightly to Alice, showing respect, and when he raised his head, a glint of battle intent flashed in his eyes.

He was not unfamiliar with battles against Middle Rank Spirit Kings, having even slain one with his own hands.

However, these feats occurred within Other-dimensional Space Gates, achieved under suppressed power conditions.

Even under suppressed power conditions, Jue Tian had severed one of Hong Tao’s arms, so the achievement of slaying a Middle Rank Spirit King meant little.

Upon hearing Lin Feng was about to fight Alice, the others were intrigued.

Everyone was curious about Lin Feng’s true strength.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Lin Feng entered the Demon Transformation state.

Accompanied by the attachment of a silver phoenix robe, nine colorful bifurcations resembling phoenix tail tattoos appeared around Lin Feng’s left eye socket.

Lin Feng slightly opened his mouth, releasing transparent bubbles, each the size of an egg, drifting towards Alice.

The bubbles danced, shimmering with a mirror-like gloss as they spread out in all directions.

Surrounded by bubbles, Alice remained motionless as powerful energy surged from her body like a tide, flames fiercely coalescing on her surface, morphing into a massive Flame Giant.

The Flame Giant stood five meters tall, adorned with a golden crown, clad in a fire robe, wielding a burning crimson scepter.

Upon its emergence, an imposing pressure spread, causing the temperature of this realm to become somewhat boiling.

"Flame Empress."

A student whispered.

The Flame Empress, Fire Attribute, Phantom Beast Type, ranked 52nd on the Earth Chart.

Alice became a mentor not solely because of the Secret Skill "Second Incarnation."

In the Middle Rank Spirit King Realm, she excels in combat; she is not mediocre, but other mentors are even stronger!

Alice was within the chest of the Flame Empress, lightly waving her right hand as the Flame Empress mimicked the movement, sweeping the scepter, unleashing a wave of fire as scorching as a sea, igniting all passing bubbles.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by deafening blasts, the bubbles exploded within ten meters of Alice, violently shaking the air as thunder flashed overhead.

In fewer than three seconds, all the sky-high bubbles burst into a burnt smell.

Lin Feng flapped his Spiritual Power Wings, hovering in the air, with a slight frown.

At present, nine bubbles remained, dispersed throughout the area.

These were bubbles condensed by clones, not so easily ignited.

Despite being over thirty meters from Alice, Lin Feng clearly felt the surrounding temperature rising drastically, making it tough to breathe as if the air itself was about to combust, as if encased in a furnace.

"Out of options!"

Lin Feng said softly, staring at the enormous Flame Empress.

His attack strategy heavily relied on bubbles. In high temperature, the bubbles were triggered to explode, leaving him without alternatives.

Close combat was even more meaningless.

Regardless of his strength, even if Alice allowed him to attack freely, he could not breach the Life Soul defense of a Middle Rank Spirit King.

This was a disparity in realm that could not be easily compensated for by Soul Skills and Cultivation Techniques.

Unless he revealed all his cards, there would be no qualification for a fight.

"Master Alice actually started with her Life Soul, showing no intention of holding back, purely overpowering us with her realm."

Among the observing students, Chen Dali whispered.

He felt Master Alice was using her realm to suppress people.

"Lin Feng’s combat system is truly strong; if strength were suppressed, Alice might not be a match," Mosi remarked.

To lose as a mentor would undoubtedly be awkward.

Alice, from within the Life Soul, gazed down at Lin Feng, calmly stating:

"Your combat system is indeed perfect. Yet, your Lifebound Demon Spirit, Dragon Fish, initially graded at one-tier, offers decent skill effects but is weak. Even if you use various high-level Soul Skills to compensate, there’s an apparent weakness: your attack speed is slow and the bubbles are fragile."

"No matter the number or power of bubbles, if they can’t reach the target, they are useless."

"In same-tier combat, due to your combat system, opponents struggle to find flaws, even Martial King experts face this. But against Spirit Kings, especially Fire Attribute ones, your Soul Skill level advantage will entirely vanish."

"The Soul Power of Lower Rank Spirit Kings is roughly twice yours, while mine is quadruple yours. The disparity isn’t so vast to negate battle chances, but the Life Soul of a Spirit King amplifies Soul Skill potency. Combined with the inherent Soul Power advantage, it’s unmatched by your Soul Skill level."

"How to bridge this gap is a question to ponder yourself."

After speaking, Alice dissolved the Life Soul.

In this fight, she held back nothing, simply relying on her realm to suppress Lin Feng.

She overwhelmed the young with the powerful.

Lin Feng had never tasted defeat before; she intended for him to experience the feeling.

With Lin Feng’s talents, same-tier invincibility is pointless; he needs to consider how to combat across tiers.
