Permanent Martial Arts

Ao was in high spirits now. Although it had suffered a little back then and was forced to become Lin Feng's mount, which had always made Ao a little uncomfortable, as Lin Feng gradually became stronger, Ao also became more and more used to the identity of a "mount".

It was even happy to be Lin Feng's mount. There was no reason other than the fact that Lin Feng had now become a Perfected Lord!

A Perfected Lord was equivalent to a Chaotic spirit beast among Chaotic dire beasts. They were great and powerful, and becoming one could be considered a transition in the level of life. If a Chaotic lifeform underwent a life transition, be it an ordinary Chaotic lifeform, an advanced Chaotic lifeform, or a peak Chaotic lifeform, it could not be considered a transition in the level of life.

Only when a Chaotic lifeform metamorphosed into a Perfected Lord and cultivated a perfected spirit could it be considered a transition in the level of life. Although Lin Feng had not undergone a life transition and cultivated a perfected spirit, he had done something even more difficult than cultivating a perfected spirit. That was, as a Chaotic Perfected Person, he had become on par with a Chaotic Perfected Lord!

This was even harder than cultivating a perfected spirit. With Lin Feng's current strength and potential, cultivating a perfected spirit in the future was almost certain. There would be no problem.

Swoosh.

When Ao flew to the City Lord Manor of Perfected Lord Empyrean, the City Lord was already waiting outside to welcome him.

"Perfected Lord Lin, my Perfected Lord and the other two Perfected Lords are already in the living room."

"Thank you for leading the way, City Lord."

The City Lord led Lin Feng to the living room respectfully. At the same time, he was very excited. As the City Lord and a descendant of Perfected Lord Empyrean, he naturally knew what would happen.

The unfavorable situation in Empyrean City was not a good thing for the City Lord. However, if the four Perfected Lords succeeded, the entire Empyrean City would probably be dozens or hundreds of times more prosperous, and become a main city that was the top in the entire Hallowed Beast Continent!

Even if it only gained the potential to become a main city, it would be incredible. When the time came, there would probably be an endless stream of cultivators coming to Empyrean City. As the City Lord, he would naturally have greater authority. He might even have a chance to obtain a large amount of resources, and thus cultivate a perfected spirit.

No matter what the City Lord was thinking, after Lin Feng handed Ao over to the City Lord, he walked into the hall. As soon as he walked into the hall, Lin Feng felt three pairs of eyes focus on him.

Sitting at the head of the living room was naturally Perfected Lord Empyrean. Lin Feng had already met him before. There were two Perfected Lords sitting on both sides. One of them was actually carrying a long sword on his back. He seemed a little aloof, like a cold long sword.

Even without Perfected Lord Empyrean's introduction, Lin Feng could guess that this must be the famous Perfected Lord Sword Wielder of Empyrean City!

The other person was an old man. He looked relatively kindly, and his gaze was not that sharp. However, just like Perfected Lord Empyrean, his gaze was very profound.

Currently, among the three Perfected Lords of Empyrean City, apart from Perfected Lord Sword Wielder and Perfected Lord Empyrean, there was only Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit.

"I believe this is Perfected Lord Lin, who fought against the Giant King as Chaotic Perfected Person?" Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit was the first to speak.

"That's right. This is Perfected Lord Lin!"

Perfected Lord Empyrean also introduced them to Lin Feng one after another. Just as Lin Feng had guessed, these two people were Perfected Lord Sword Wielder and Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit. Lin Feng did not know much about these two Perfected Lords.

He only knew that the Perfected Lord Sword Wielder was very special. He did not have any other Chaotic artifacts, nor did he use other Chaotic martial arts. Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not even learn Chaotic spells, and only cultivated the long sword he carried.

It was said that his sword could break all techniques. Its offensive ability was very powerful, and it belonged to a Perfected Lord who had killed countless. In the past, when Empyrean City encountered a few crises, it was always Perfected Lord Sword Wielder who slaughtered the enemies himself with his sword alone. He killed so many that it terrified those Chaotic dire beasts. This was enough to show how terrifying Perfected Lord Sword Wielder was.

Lin Feng did sense a murderous aura on Perfected Lord Sword Wielder, but it did not affect Perfected Lord Sword Wielder at all. His perfected spirit was compatible with the way of the sword. It advanced boldly and could defeat all in its path.

Lin Feng had also learned about Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit from Lu Ba. Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit was the one running the Extreme Spirit Tower that Lu Ba owed a debt to back then. It was rumored that Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit had cultivated for a very, very long time. In terms of time spent cultivation, he was even a senior to Perfected Lord Empyrean.

Of course, perhaps it was just that his natural aptitude was not as good as Perfected Lord Empyrean's, and his opportunities were not that abundant. Hence, Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit eventually became a Perfected Lord only after Perfected Lord Empyrean became a Perfected Lord.

Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit was tactful and gentle. He looked more like a businessman than a dignified cultivator who was a Perfected Lord. It was said that not only was the Extreme Spirit Tower a colossus in Empyrean City, it was even widely established in many cities on the entire Hallowed Beast Continent. It could be considered extremely successful.

"Greetings, Perfected Lords!"

Lin Feng also cupped his hands and greeted them as an equal. Now that he was also one of the four Perfected Lords of Empyrean City, his status was not much inferior to the three Perfected Lords.

Swoosh.

A strange glint flashed across Perfected Lord Sword Wielder's eyes. He said coldly, "I heard that Perfected Lord Lin can withstand the Giant King's Light of Annulment. I wonder if Perfected Lord Lin can withstand a strike from me?"

"Huh?"

Lin Feng frowned. He had no feud with Perfected Lord Sword Wielder, and had not even known him before. But now, was Perfected Lord Sword Wielder provoking him?

The expressions of Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit and Perfected Lord Empyrean changed abruptly when they heard this. Then, they smiled helplessly and said, "Perfected Lord Lin, don't misunderstand. Perfected Lord Sword Wielder has a sincere heart and has cultivated the way of the sword his entire life. In fact, Perfected Lord Sword Wielder's perfected spirit is incomparably compatible with the way of the sword. Whenever he encounters other Perfected Lords, he would want to spar with them. Be it myself, Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit, or Perfected Lord Prime Shadow, who has left, all of us have sparred with Perfected Lord Sword Wielder before."

"I see."

Lin Feng nodded. No wonder Perfected Lord Sword Wielder always appeared aloof. Such a cultivator was all alone and completely engrossed in his own cultivation. He was not good at maintaining relations, and more than that, he was an ascetic cultivator who did not fit in with others.

However, such people were also the purest. They could often attain an extremely high level of cultivation.

Without this sincere heart, it would be impossible for Perfected Lord Sword Wielder to become a Perfected Lord, and cultivate a perfected spirit.

"I don't mind sparring, but let's hear Perfected Lord Empyrean's plan first."

Lin Feng did not mind.

Perfected Lord Sword Wielder did not pester him. He was an ascetic cultivator. He was indeed not good at relations, but he was not stupid. Lin Feng was a Perfected Lord. If Lin Feng could fight the Giant King, Lin Feng was not inferior to him. Naturally, he would not underestimate Lin Feng.

At the mention of serious matters, both Perfected Lord Empyrean and Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit's expressions turned solemn.

"Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit and I have already discussed it hastily. The four of us Perfected Lords can deal with the Chaotic spirit beasts of the four Chaotic races. However, we do not have much of an advantage. All that's left is the battle between the Chaotic dire beasts and Chaotic Perfected Persons. In this aspect, our Empyrean City is at a disadvantage. The number of Chaotic Perfected Persons is far inferior to the Chaotic dire beasts.

"That is, unless we can defeat a Chaotic dire beast race as quickly as possible. This way, we will have the advantage in terms of top-notch combat power. For example, the four of us can attack first and surround and kill a Chaotic spirit beast. If we can defeat it successfully, the rest will be much smoother."

Lin Feng's eyes lit up as well. "This is indeed a good idea. If we can surround and kill a Chaotic spirit beast, we will definitely have the advantage. However, as far as I know, Chaotic spirit beasts all have extremely strong life-preserving abilities. Moreover, the four Chaotic spirit beasts are actually in contact with each other. Once we surround and kill one, the other three Chaotic spirit beasts will probably rush over quickly."

This was Lin Feng's concern, and also a difficulty that everyone knew about.

"That's right, so this method actually has a very low chance of success. It's not difficult to defeat a Chaotic spirit beast, but it's just too difficult to kill a Chaotic spirit beast completely."

Perfected Lord Empyrean was also rather helpless. The greatest difference between Chaotic spirit beasts and Chaotic Perfected Lords was that Chaotic spirit beasts did not have perfected spirits, and could not reincarnate and cultivate again.

However, correspondingly, the Chaotic bodies of Chaotic spirit beasts were also much, much stronger. It was almost impossible to kill them by destroying their Chaotic bodies.

Even if the four Chaotic Perfected Lords surrounded and killed it together, it would take a long time. Moreover, they must not slip up at all in the process. The success rate was too low. If it were so easy to succeed, the four Perfected Lords of Empyrean City would have attacked long ago.

"If this method cannot work, we can only fight directly. Although there aren't many Chaotic Perfected Persons among us cultivators, and we're even suppressed by the Hallowed Beast Continent, we can use arrays," Lin Feng suddenly said.

"Array? The array itself is in Empyrean City. How can we move it out?" Perfected Lord Extreme Spirit said helplessly.

"Wait, who said that arrays can only be set up in Empyrean City? Don't you have other arrays that can be formed by a great number of Chaotic Perfected Persons?"

Lin Feng stared at Perfected Lord Empyrean and the others with some bewilderment.
