Permanent Martial Arts

Although Lin Feng had some suspicions about Longbetham, he chose to trust it more!

"Longbetham, if you receive the message, respond as soon as possible."

After Lin Feng returned to the airship, he logged into his Martial Domain Network account and sent a message.

This was Longbetham's virtual account. Only Lin Feng's Martial Domain Network account had this account. Even if others checked, they would not be able to find it. If Longbetham was really in the virtual network, it would definitely receive the news.

"Eh, it is really you? I just received news that a battle between Sages had occurred in Golden Mountain City. I guessed that was you."

Longbetham indeed reappeared. It appeared completely undamaged.

"You… have undergone three life transitions?"

"You even fused the Spear of Destruction?"

When Longbetham sized Lin Feng up carefully, its eyes widened in shock. For the first time, its tone revealed shock.

Back then, Longbetham did not think very highly of Lin Feng. Its evaluation of Lin Feng was three simple words—he was lucky!

But now, Lin Feng had undergone two life transitions in a row. In fact, he had undergone three life transitions in a short period of time. It had only been a few months since his second life transition.

Even by cosmic standards, having the third life transition in a few months was already the feat of a rare genius.

In particular, Lin Feng had actually fused the Spear of Destruction. This was even more incredible than his three life transitions.

"Longbetham, do you still remember the life core fragment? By chance, I fused the memories in the life core and used the life core. That's how I underwent the third life transition and temporarily condensed the Annihilative Origin, which barely allowed me to mobilize the Spear of Destruction."

Lin Feng had nothing much to hide from Longbetham. Moreover, Longbetham also knew about the life core fragment.

"You fused a life core fragment? That is already very impressive. The memories contained in a life core fragment have a terrifying impact. You, a mere lifeform with two life transitions, actually withstood the impact and even fused the memories in the life core. That is really… I cannot describe it anymore. This is no longer something that can be accomplished through pure luck. It seems that there are some things about you that even I cannot see through."

Longbetham sized Lin Feng up carefully again.

It wanted to know what secrets Lin Feng had. Why was he always able to create miracles? Even it had misjudged him.

Unfortunately, no matter how it looked at it, Lin Feng was still the same Lin Feng, plain and simple. He appeared ordinary, like most lifeforms in this world, and there was nothing special about him at all.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Longbetham had misjudged him.

"Three life transitions. If you can undergo four life transitions, you can accept Master's true legacy!"

Longbetham also seemed to have realized that Lin Feng might really be able to meet the basic conditions to obtain Master Bemond's legacy, and become Master's disciple!

At the thought of this, Longbetham's attitude towards Lin Feng changed slightly. Once Lin Feng became the Bemond's disciple and obtained the legacy, it would become Lin Feng's follower. It would assist Lin Feng for the rest of its life, and be bound together for good or ill.

"Longbetham, I need your help."

Lin Feng went straight to the point.

"What is it?"

Longbetham was somewhat "pragmatic". Now that Lin Feng really had the potential to undergo four life transitions, and might even become a planetary lifeform in the future, it gradually became "proactive".

"Look at the information in this communicator. I need you to find this mysterious person!"

Lin Feng handed Batai's communicator to Longbetham to check.

"By the way, there's also the control core of the Guardian! I don't know what method Batai used to take over the control core of the Guardian. I think it might also be the doing of this mysterious person."

Longbetham checked the messages in the communicator carefully, and its eyes gradually became solemn. It probably also realized the severity of this matter.

If even a Sage could be used as its pawn, this "Night Devil" was probably very unusual.

"Show me the intelligent core first."

Longbetham immediately entered the Guardian's intelligent core. Not long after, it emerged again, but its expression was a little strange.

"What did you find out?"

"I found a program. This little program was what took over the intelligent core of the Guardian. With your current level of technology, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to develop this program. Let me think carefully… If I'm not wrong, this should be a program of the third civilization."

"The third civilization?"

Lin Feng was a little surprised. The Guardian was the product of the third civilization, and was a war machine created by the third civilization. The program of the third civilization could naturally be used to control the Guardian.

But who could control the program of the third civilization?

Even if it's placed before human scientists and researched by them for ten years, it'd be impossible for them to understand it thoroughly, let alone use it to control the Guardian.

Unless the other party was a lifeform from the third civilization!

"Longbetham, is it possible that certain lifeforms of the third civilization survived until now through special methods?"

"Impossible!"

Longbetham's tone was resolute.

"The destruction of civilization is not as simple as you imagine. In short, if the third civilization was destroyed, it was completely annihilated. It is impossible for any lifeform to survive until now. However, do not worry, I will definitely help you find this mysterious person. When the time comes, the truth will naturally be revealed!"

Longbetham was vague and still refused to tell the reason for the destruction of its civilization. It seemed to be wary of something.

So, Longbetham entered the communicator. It analyzed the location of the message.

The technological methods of humans might only be able to find an empty number, but Longbetham was a mechanical lifeform in an advanced technological civilization. There were very few things in a technological civilization that it could not understand.

Longbetham continued to analyze the information of the mysterious person in the communicator. Its tracking methods were far beyond the current level of human technology.

"Interesting. It is really cunning. Using various concealment methods and even simulations, it can hide its specific signal in every corner of the world. Anywhere with a virtual network might be the hiding place of the mysterious person.

"This is Central Sea City? There are also Luo City, Jin City, and Dragonlith City?

"No, there are also many other Outland bases. This is… the Supreme Commanders' Department? The Conference of Sages?"

With every name Longbetham said, Lin Feng's expression became more solemn.

"However, these are all disguises. Watch me find your true signal source!"

This kind of concealment method was unheard of. It seemed to be a technological method of the ancient civilization. No wonder humans could not track it at all, and could not do anything to the Night Devil organization.

There was an unknown number of years of technological gap alone. How could they trace it?

However, Longbetham was different. It came from an advanced technological civilization, and furthermore, it was a mechanical lifeform. Tracking the signal was a piece of cake for Longbetham.

"Found it! But, how can it be there?"

Suddenly, Longbetham's voice became a little strange.

"Where is it?" Lin Feng hurriedly asked.

Longbetham glanced at Lin Feng, then said in a low voice, "The signal has appeared in the Myriad Academy!"
