Permanent Martial Arts



The Val Castle stood in the middle of a group of low-rise houses, visible from afar.

"Mage Merlin, we've already arrived at Father's territory. The Val Castle is ahead."

Lady Pera introduced the place to Lin Feng excitedly.

"Oh? The castle is quite big."

Lin Feng looked around. There were people passing by outside the carriage. When they saw the carriage, they all bowed respectfully to it. They all knew that this was a carriage of the Earl's castle, and distinguished figures must be sitting on it.

Lin Feng was also observing these people. Some were malnourished and looked very thin, but some were powerful and looked very strong.

Moreover, there were smiles on their faces. It seemed like Earl Val was a kind lord. At least he treated the people in the territory very well and did not extort them.

"My lady, you're finally back. The Earl is very worried. Recently, there has been a group of bandits wreaking havoc in the territory. The Earl was worried about your safety. He wanted to send people to intercept you, but they failed to catch up."

As soon as the carriage arrived at the castle, a voluptuous woman in a light blue lace dress and light makeup rushed over. It was obvious that she was also very beautiful when she was young.

"Housekeeper Lily, where is Father?" Lady Pera lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked.

"The Earl is patrolling the territory."

"Hurry and ask Father to come back. Tell him that a great mage has arrived at the castle."

"Great mage?"

Housekeeper Lily was shocked. As expected, a man who looked very youthful followed Lady Pera out of the carriage. There was a smile on his lips, but there was a "noble" aura around him that made people find it hard to look directly at him.

"Yes, my lady. I'll go find the Earl now."

Housekeeper Lily was shocked. Mages were the most distinguished group of people. She hurriedly bowed respectfully to Lin Feng, and immediately led people to search for Earl Val in the territory.

"Mage Merlin, please sit for a moment. Father will be back soon."

Lin Feng nodded. His current identity was that of a distinguished mage. He could show a friendly side, but he had to "put on airs".

Hence, Lin Feng closed his eyes to rest. No one dared to disturb him.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Soon, a rush of hoofbeats came from outside the gate. A man in silver armor with a helmet walked quickly. He was burly and his steps were swift as the wind, and he emitted a terrifying aura like a wild beast.

"Pera, where is the Mage Merlin you mentioned?"

"Father, this is Mage Merlin!"

Lady Pera hurriedly stood up and introduced Lin Feng to the burly man.

The burly man was clearly Earl Val, the master of this huge territory.

"Mage Merlin, thank you for saving my daughter. She's just too willful."

Earl Val also bowed respectfully to Lin Feng. Even though he was a powerful warrior, no matter how powerful a warrior was, they would not dare to be disrespectful to a mysterious and noble mage.

"Earl Val, please forgive me for visiting abruptly."

"Haha, Mage Merlin, you're a guest from afar. You're more than welcome!"

Earl Val was very forthright. Actually, Lin Feng more or less knew about Earl Val's identity. Previously, when he returned with Lady Pera, Lady Pera had taken the initiative to mention it.

When Earl Val was young, he followed the marshal of the kingdom to war for 15 years, and made many contributions in the war. In the end, he was bestowed the title of Earl by His Majesty the King, along with this large territory.

Although this domain was a little remote, and did not contain ores, they did not detract from the fact that this domain was really huge. Although Earl Val looked formidable, he was actually very amiable. He did not extort the people of the domain, and had a good reputation in the domain. He was a lord loved by the people of the domain.

Earl Val was not so easy to fool. Lin Feng could sense the terrifying power contained in Earl Val's body. The Cloud Leopard he had encountered in the Misty Forest was far inferior to Earl Val.

However, Earl Val did not ask about Lin Feng's origins at all, and always maintained a respectful attitude towards Lin Feng.

After dinner, Lin Feng bade farewell and went to rest.

For the next few days, Lin Feng stayed in the Val Castle. After slowly getting familiar with everyone in the castle, Lin Feng also read many books collected in the castle, and gained a rough understanding of this world.

This world was known as the Odom Plane. It was a plane under the command of a Legendary Mage called Odom.

This was not a secret, but publicly disseminated information. Many people knew that this was a plane, and the dominant force was mages!

Of course, as an Earl, he had almost never come into contact with mages other than on the battlefield. Hence, there was not much information about mages recorded in these books.

However, just the public information was already an eye-opener for Lin Feng.

The one who dominated this plane was Mage Odom, a Legendary Mage!

In these books, Legendary Mages were described as miraculous, almost omnipotent, and were the rulers of this plane. Moreover, Mage Odom was described as a great savior of the world.

With the brilliance of the World of Mages, Odom spread the wisdom and knowledge of mages, turning this barren plane into a powerful civilization filled with intelligence.

"Legendary Mage!"

Lin Feng's expression was very solemn. Legendary Mages were mentioned repeatedly in the books.

According to the books, Legendary Mages were omnipotent. They enslaved deities, traversed planes, and spread the wisdom and knowledge of mages. They were simply unimaginably powerful.

Moreover, this was not the only plane under Mage Odom. There were many more planes.

Lin Feng could not help but feel incomparably enthralled.

There were many planes, and a Legendary Mage could control a plane. Wasn't this an excellent world? Even if he devoured a plane, it could probably be reasonably "concealed".

Such a world was simply a paradise to Lin Feng.

However, Lin Feng did not get carried away, and was still very cautious.

Legendary Mages could enslave deities and step across countless planes. Such strength was definitely very powerful, at least comparable to or even surpassing Chaotic lifeforms.

Moreover, Lin Feng did not know if there were rulers in this world.

"This is a world that belongs to mages, a civilization of mages! Moreover, the civilization of mages is very aggressive and invasive. This world is not simple!"

Lin Feng did not think that he could annihilate the entire World of Mages just because he was a Hallowed Lord.

After all, the World of Mages contained countless Legendary Mages and tens of thousands of planes. Even Lin Feng had to take such a huge power seriously.

However, while devouring them directly was not an option, encroaching them slowly was.

For a moment, many thoughts flashed through Lin Feng's mind, and he gradually came up with a plan.
