Volume 76 — Crisis Beyond Comprehension
The Obsidian Root Palace radiated an intensity that shook the heavens, petals of the First Bloom spinning like a furious storm. Lin Feng hovered at its center, fully harmonized with the artifact, hidden force, and the entity's guidance. Yet, a new crisis emerged—an unknown calamity, warping space and spiritual energy, threatening entire regions at once.
Caiyi's eyes widened. "Lin Feng… this… this isn't just an enemy. It's… chaos itself. The palace… even the hidden force… it's struggling to stabilize it!"
Lin Feng's gaze hardened, aura blazing. "Exactly. This is the ultimate test of the fourth secret's transcendent stage. Peach Spirit… we must integrate every current, every pulse, every subtle thread of influence. Synchronization must be perfect."
Host, the Peach Spirit whispered, this calamity is beyond ordinary comprehension. Its energy is chaotic, constantly shifting. One misstep could destabilize not only the palace, but reality itself. You must act with precision and foresight.
The calamity's energy surged outward, distorting terrain, collapsing mountains, and twisting rivers. Lin Feng extended his hands, petals spinning faster, streams of hidden force and artifact energy intertwining with the palace's currents. Subtle manipulations began stabilizing the chaotic energy, redirecting destructive flows, and harmonizing fractured spiritual currents.
Caiyi followed closely, aura fully attuned. "It's… incredible. You're not just defending against the chaos—you're shaping it, guiding it, almost like you're dancing with reality itself!"
Lin Feng's eyes glimmered with resolve. Every pulse of the fourth secret, hidden force, and entity's guidance worked in unison. Distortions in space and energy were corrected before they could cause harm. Waves of chaos became controlled currents, mountains and rivers subtly guided, and the storm of destruction turned into a manageable flow of energy.
"This… is the true test of transcendence," Lin Feng murmured. "Not just influence, perception, or control… but alignment with the very threads of existence itself. The fourth secret must bend to reality, not the other way around."
The palace pulsed in approval, petals spinning like a radiant hurricane. Caiyi exhaled in awe. "Lin Feng… you're beyond anything anyone has ever imagined. The world itself bends to your mastery."
Lin Feng's gaze burned with determination. "Then we move forward… the fourth secret still holds mysteries deeper than even this crisis can reveal."
