Chapter Twenty-Nine: My Name is Lin Feng
The Head Elder looked at the two young boys in the Arena with a look of approval. Both of them had good potential, but more importantly, they had the right temperament.
How to break the deadlock? Lin Feng had lost count of how many times he had asked himself this question. Time was slowly passing, and there was little left before the tea was finished. If he couldn't come up with a solution by then, he would have no choice but to admit defeat.
"Lin Feng, you can do it. Just think about how dangerous the Beastly Forest was, and you managed to survive," Miaomiao said, deciding to support him with unconditional trust and encouragement since Lin Feng was unwilling to give up.
"The Beastly Forest?"
Lin Feng mulled over those four words and recalled his experiences in the Beastly Forest. In his mind, an image of countless Golden Crocodiles lingered.
"I might have a way."
Lin Feng took out a Golden Crocodile from his storage bag, then another one, followed by a third and a fourth... a total of thirty-seven.
Thirty-seven Golden Crocodiles filled the Arena, making onlookers feel uneasy.
"Golden Crocodile, a First Rank ferocious beast. How did he capture so many? It's unbelievable."
"I've heard that Golden Crocodile skin is tough and its teeth are incredibly sharp. Facing one or two might be manageable, but against over thirty? It's certain death."
Outer Disciples murmured among themselves.
"I really want to know what he plans to do now."
"Could it be that he's going to control the Golden Crocodiles to fight?"
Inner Sect Disciples also became interested in the discussion.
Shen Yumen looked at the dozens of Golden Crocodiles and felt his scalp tingle. He knew he couldn't defeat them. However, he noticed that all these Golden Crocodiles were dead.
What use are dead crocodiles?
"What do you want to do?" Shen Yumen was utterly perplexed.
"I'm dying of laughter. Why is he pulling out so many dead crocodile bodies? Is he trying to scare Shen Yumen into surrendering?" Fei Ze laughed heartily; by now, the outcome of the competition was already clear.
Miaomiao looked at Lin Feng on the stage and couldn't help but say, "He isn't actually going to eat it, is he?"
Lin Feng didn't respond with words but instead showed everyone the answer through his actions. He pierced the Golden Crocodile with the Azure Wind Horn and then picked up a piece of meat to eat raw.
"Is he really eating the Golden Crocodile?"
The Outer Disciples displayed expressions of disbelief.
The scene was bloody, cruel, and disgusting, making one feel nauseous.
Lin Feng didn't want to do this; if there had been even a hint of another option, he would have chosen differently. Was raw meat tasty? Not at all; it was incredibly unappetizing. He felt like throwing up himself.
However, time was pressing, and he simply didn't have the luxury to cook the crocodiles before eating.
With blood all over his face, Lin Feng's appearance was hard to look at. Yet his expression remained resolute as he continued to eat—one, two, three...
"There is a tribe in this world known as the Barbarians, who consume the flesh and blood of fierce beasts to strengthen themselves and absorb the spiritual power within," Inner Sect Senior Brother Lu Wushuang spoke slowly.
Miaomiao watched Lin Feng, observing the gruesome scenes unfold. Looking into his determined eyes made her heart ache. She thought to herself that Lin Feng must be suffering greatly at this moment too.
As the meat of the Golden Crocodile entered his stomach, it transformed into spiritual power. This power continuously nourished and healed Lin Feng's injured internal organs and flesh.
The muscles on Lin Feng's face trembled in pain from the torment of the fierce beast's blood and flesh. But he did not stop.
After finishing eight Golden Crocodiles, Lin Feng's appetite was astonishing. He felt his injured body fully recover, and due to today's severe injuries combined with the foundation laid by a Medicinal Bath earlier, his body became even stronger during this recovery process.
"Not enough..."
Lin Feng revealed a serious expression as he continued to eat voraciously. The blood of the fierce beasts stained his coarse clothing red.
Some Outer Disciples could not bear the bloody scene and began to vomit. Many turned away, unable to watch.
"Lin Feng, you can do it," Miaomiao murmured, her voice barely audible, meant only for herself.
After swallowing fifteen Golden Crocodiles, the power within Lin Feng surged astonishingly. His spirit energy filled him, causing his eyes to turn bloodshot as a fierce aura radiated from him, instilling awe in those around.
Lin Feng continued, devouring thirty-seven more Golden Crocodiles. The beastly energy within him erupted completely, and he could not help but let out a long howl.
His black hair flowed like a waterfall, and Lin Feng exuded a terrifying presence that made him seem wild and frenzied.
"What is his name?" the Inner Sect Grand Elder asked for the first time.
"My name is Lin Feng."
Before anyone else could speak, Lin Feng answered himself. It was a declaration of pride.
I am Lin Feng. To those who once looked down on me, watch closely now; I am Lin Feng.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng's bravado did not last long. After finishing that sentence, his mind went blank as he fell into a frenzied state. He let out a beast-like roar at Shen Yumen and lunged at him with bare hands.
Shen Yumen was taken aback. If it were truly a ferocious beast, it would not be so frightening; however, when a person acted like a beast, it became terrifying indeed.
Shen Yumen immediately unleashed all his cultivation, vast Vital Energy spreading out. Upon reaching the seventh level, he could further unleash the power of his Second-Grade Magical Artifact.
He swung his sword, unleashing waves of Sword Flowers. These Sword Flowers no longer scattered in all directions to surround Lin Feng but instead coalesced into a wall to block him.
Seeing Lin Feng's bloodshot eyes, Shen Yumen felt a surge of dread within him.
Lin Feng charged into the wall formed by the Sword Flowers with bare hands. The Sword Flowers sliced at his hands continuously, tearing his clothes and exposing his flesh. His palms bore numerous shallow wounds that did not even bleed.
Lin Feng's momentum was unmatched; like a madman, he pushed through the wall of Sword Flowers and lunged at Shen Yumen, delivering a powerful punch to his chest.
Shen Yumen was alarmed and immediately raised his sword to block.
Boom...
Lin Feng's fist struck Sharp Sword, causing the blade to bend slightly but not break. Shen Yumen felt an overwhelming force crashing towards him, sending both him and his sword flying out of the arena and sliding across the Training Ground.
Shen Yumen coughed up blood, his breath weak to the extreme. If it weren't for the Second-Grade Magical Artifact absorbing that heavy blow, he might have been in mortal danger.
With no opponent left, Lin Feng let out a roar. His body was still suffering from Spiritual Power Torment, yet he found no outlet for his frustration.
Miaomiao soared into the air and landed in front of Lin Feng, then swung her delicate hand and slapped him hard across the face.
Lin Feng roared in anger and lunged at Miaomiao. She immediately took flight, heading down the mountain towards Solitary Moon City. Lin Feng pursued her relentlessly, intent on killing her.
Miaomiao understood that Lin Feng needed to vent his anger, so she took a risk and led him into the Beastly Forest.
As the situation changed dramatically, everyone was left stunned. By the time they regained their senses, Lin Feng and Miaomiao had already vanished from sight.
Miaomiao was fast but maintained a distance from Lin Feng. After several hours, they finally reached the Beastly Forest. Next, it would be the ferocious beasts that would suffer.
The combined spiritual power of thirty-seven First Rank Golden Crocodiles was no less than that of an Azure Wind Rhinoceros. Lin Feng charged into the Beastly Forest with great momentum, causing the beasts to retreat.
Eventually, Lin Feng encountered a Second-Stage Beast, the Winged Serpent, and engaged in a fierce battle with it. The Winged Serpent had wings on its back, capable of flying and swimming. Its body was covered in poisonous spots and was one of the strongest among Second-Stage Beasts.
Lin Feng and the Winged Serpent fought from the ground to the treetops and then into the water. This battle lasted an entire day. After one day, Lin Feng finally killed the Winged Serpent and emerged from his frenzy.
During this time, Miaomiao stayed close to Lin Feng, closely observing his duel with the Winged Serpent. Several times, when she saw Lin Feng in life-threatening danger, she risked herself to save him. Although she managed to block a fatal blow from the Winged Serpent for Lin Feng, she suffered a heavy strike from him in return and spat out blood on the spot.
Despite Miaomiao's strong cultivation, her physical body could not compare to Lin Feng's, leaving her seriously injured.
This was Lin Feng's first one-on-one encounter with a Second-Stage Beast, and he had slain it. Although he had been in a frenzied state during the kill, it brought him immense joy. He eagerly collected the Winged Serpent's True Blood and then hunted some First Rank beasts for their True Blood as well.
Lin Feng began his Medicinal Bath; otherwise, all the spiritual power he had gained from consuming so many Golden Crocodiles would dissipate in vain.
Just as Lin Feng set up the Ancient Cauldron, Miaomiao gathered dry wood and lit a campfire. He placed the Ancient Cauldron over it and poured in clean water. Once it boiled, he added First Rank Beast Blood followed by the True Blood of the Winged Serpent.
As the Winged Serpent's True Blood dripped into the Ancient Cauldron, it trembled violently. The hot water inside began to boil furiously, with palm-sized bubbles rising and leaping out of the cauldron.
Lin Feng stepped into the boiling water. Even with his now powerful physique, he found the temperature astonishingly high, causing excruciating pain throughout his body. This demonstrated just how formidable the power contained within the Winged Serpent's True Blood was.
Miaomiao did not shy away this time, nor did she avert her gaze from Lin Feng in the Medicinal Bath. She dismembered the body of the Winged Serpent and roasted each piece over the fire.
She could no longer bear to see Lin Feng consume the raw flesh of ferocious beasts. If eating beast meat was essential for his cultivation, then she would cook it thoroughly and store it away. That way, when Lin Feng needed to eat, he wouldn't have to consume raw meat.
"I should learn some cooking skills; it would be best to prepare the beast meat in a more delicious way. That way, Lin Feng will enjoy it more," Miaomiao thought to herself as she roasted the meat.
Lin Feng observed all of this with warm feelings swelling in his heart. He promised himself that he would protect Miaomiao throughout his life, even at the cost of his own life.
Ahhhhh...
Lin Feng had little time for free thought as terrifying pain surged through him, causing him to scream in agony. He felt that with his current Foundation, enduring a second-tier Beast Blood Medicinal Bath was already pushing his limits.
The Medicinal Bath lasted for eight hours. After that time had passed, Lin Feng emerged from the Ancient Cauldron, dressed himself, and began lifting weights. This time, he successfully lifted them a thousand times before sitting down to cultivate and breaking through to the third level.
"It seems that fighting against strong opponents is also a good way to improve," Lin Feng muttered to himself.
Cough cough...
At that moment, Miaomiao couldn't help but cough as she placed the roasted snake meat into a jar.
"Miaomiao, what's wrong?" Lin Feng asked with concern.
"The air here is humid; I might have caught a chill," Miaomiao lied. Little did she know that a cultivator should not fear chills. She had been injured by Lin Feng but didn't want to tell him so he wouldn't feel guilty.
Lin Feng didn't think too deeply about it and replied, "Then you need to be careful."
Miaomiao nodded and said, "Lin Feng, I've roasted and stored this snake meat; please put it in your storage bag."
"Thank you, Miaomiao," Lin Feng said sincerely.
"Are you still being polite with me?" Miaomiao replied with a grin.
Lin Feng chuckled and asked, "By the way, how did your match with Meng Kuo go?"
Only then did Miaomiao remember that after Lin Feng, it was her turn to compete. She immediately exclaimed, "Oh no! I completely forgot about the match while running out with you."
"We need to hurry back."
With that, Lin Feng and Miaomiao rushed back to Solitary Moon City.
