Volume 66 — The Ultimate Battle Begins
The Obsidian Root Palace pulsed with unprecedented energy, its hidden spiritual currents now perfectly harmonized with Lin Feng's aura and the newly awakened artifact. Petals of the First Bloom spun in a blinding storm, scattering radiant light across the palace halls. The fourth secret had reached its ultimate stage, and now the world beyond awaited its demonstration.
Caiyi's eyes widened. "Lin Feng… with the artifact awakened, the palace… your power… it's unimaginable. How can anyone oppose you now?"
Lin Feng's gaze was sharp, aura blazing. "Exactly. The fourth secret has granted us perception, control, and influence. Now, with the artifact, we can extend that mastery even further—on a scale no one has ever faced. Peach Spirit… prepare us. The battlefield will test everything."
Host, the Peach Spirit whispered, the artifact amplifies the palace's power, but the trial is greater than before. You will face multiple elite sects working in coordination, their combined strength aimed directly at you. Complete harmony is required to wield this level of influence safely.
From the horizon, a coalition of rival sects appeared, each sending waves of energy that could level mountains. Attacks came in perfect coordination, a storm of devastating force designed to overwhelm the Obsidian Root Palace. Lin Feng extended his hands, petals spinning faster, energy currents radiating outward. Hidden spiritual energy intertwined with the artifact's power, subtly redirecting attacks, manipulating terrain, and guiding every movement with flawless precision.
Caiyi moved in perfect synchronization. "It's… incredible. The palace, the artifact… they're guiding every action. The enemies don't even realize it!"
Lin Feng's expression hardened. Every strike, every defense, every subtle shift in energy was controlled and amplified. Rocks rose to block assaults, energy currents diverted attacks, and the battlefield itself became an extension of his will. The rival sects faltered as their strategies unraveled under invisible but undeniable guidance.
"This… is the pinnacle of the fourth secret!" Lin Feng shouted, aura blazing. "Perception, control, energy, and influence… perfected!"
Caiyi exhaled, awe in her voice. "Lin Feng… the palace and artifact… together, you're unstoppable!"
Lin Feng hovered, petals spinning like a radiant storm. "And this… is only the beginning. The world beyond will now feel the true power of the Obsidian Root Palace."
