Lin Feng was having a very long dream, in which his soul wandered outside of his body, drifting in the darkness, and no matter how he drifted, his spirit never left that endless darkness.

  This is a dark world, a world without any vitality.

  Lin Feng didn't know how long his soul had been drifting, but a faint light suddenly appeared before him. This sole ray of light in the darkness was multicolored and swirled upwards, shining brightly and beautifully.

  "Good dream."

  Lin Feng approached the light, and as he got closer, the radiance grew stronger. He found that this swirling light extended far into the distance, impossible to reach. In the dazzling glow, a magnificent heavenly book seemed to be floating quietly, exuding an air of ancient elegance, as if it had existed there since time immemorial.

  As Lin Feng gazed up at the resplendent Heavenly Book, dazzling light burst forth once more. The Heavenly Book slowly opened, and endless characters surged towards Lin Feng!

  "Boom!"

  His mind suddenly exploded, Lin Feng directly sat up from the ground, the night rain was still pouring down, the sky and earth were dark and gloomy, where was the dazzling light, let alone the brilliant heavenly book.

  "Huff...huff..." Lin Feng's mouth emitted heavy breathing sounds, his body still trembling slightly. Fortunately, he was still alive.

  Under that tearing pain just now, Lin Feng almost thought he was going to die, it was not a pain that humans could bear.

  "Do others have to endure this kind of pain when their martial soul awakens?" Lin Feng's deep pupils stared into the dark night, revealing a hint of doubt. Although he didn't think his talent was particularly strong, at least he had some confidence in his willpower. If others could endure the pain of their martial soul awakening, then he should be able to as well.

  But when his Martial Soul's true form awakened, the endless pain invaded him three times in a row, each time more intense than the last. By the third time, it was enough to put him on the brink of death. The pain was not something that could be endured by willpower alone. His willpower was strong, so he didn't directly collapse, but instead, blood flowed out of his seven orifices.

  Maybe everyone's martial soul is different when they first awaken, I don't know if mine has passed this hurdle.

  Lin Feng muttered to himself, his mind stirred, and his martial soul was released. The next moment, Lin Feng suddenly had an inexplicable feeling, as if he were in a dark place, everything around him changed, darkness, endless darkness. At this time, he was no longer in the black night, but in a dark world.

  His senses seemed to have become even more acute, within a radius of several miles, even the slightest movement could not escape him. His mind had become extremely calm and was constantly turning, much sharper than usual, as if he had seen through everything in an instant.

  What's even more terrifying is Lin Feng's pair of eyes, his own unseen eyes, dark pupils devoid of human emotions, how frighteningly calm and indifferent.

  "Darkness... Martial Soul."

  Lin Feng found that his mind was clearer than ever before, and even he himself felt the terror of this martial soul.

  And it seems there's more to it than that...

  The mind stirred, behind Lin Feng's back, a vast and majestic black shadow rose up, and at the top of this dark shadow, a brilliant book floated quietly, this brilliant book opened a page, as if it had always been so.

  "Is this a martial soul?" Lin Feng's eyes were fixed, when Wu Xiu's martial soul was released, he could clearly feel everything about the martial soul. The scene presented at this time was like a dream, an endless dark world, with a bright light flashing, a heavenly book suspended in mid-air, floating quietly!

  In Lin Feng's memory, there had never been a martial soul that could be released twice. It was as if this martial soul originally had two layers: the first layer did not have dark virtual shadows, but it made the surrounding world merge into darkness; the second layer revealed the Heavenly Book Martial Soul. Lin Feng thought his original martial soul's awakening had failed, but now it seemed he hadn't failed at all - on the contrary, things were turning out better than expected.

  "Heavenly Book, Martial Soul......" Lin Feng didn't even know what to call his martial soul at this moment.

  In the Jiuxiao Continent, there were countless martial cultivators, and the types of martial souls were too numerous to count. Moreover, when one's innate abilities awakened, they already belonged to a transformation of their martial soul. No one could claim that they knew all the martial souls; they only knew that there were many common martial souls and some rare ones.

  The Book of Martial Soul is a peculiar and rare type of martial soul. This martial soul does not possess attacking capabilities, nor can it defend or assist in combat. However, the owners of these book martial souls may record extraordinary things within their martial soul books, which could potentially alter the fate of a martial artist's cultivation.

  "Tian Zhao." Lin Feng softly called out, and in an instant, those dark and icy pupils actually had a hint of dazzling silver-white light, like the sun, shining brightly and startlingly.

  This dazzling light was just a flash, but Lin Feng fell into deep thought. This Tian Zhuo was the divine ability granted to him when he opened the first page of the Book of Wu Soul, Tian Zhuo, seeing through everything.

  "From now on, I'll call you Tenshō Busō." Lin Feng muttered to himself, the Busō's illusory shadow dissipating as his eyes gradually returned to normal, losing their icy indifference. His eyes were still as clear as ever, but behind that clarity, a hint of depth had been added.

  With his palm open, a white aura swirled around him, the primordial energy of heaven and earth could be transformed into an aura at will. Lin Feng had now stepped into the Spiritual Martial Realm.

  Dark Martial Soul experienced its first awakening, giving birth to the double-release Heavenly Martial Soul. Its power reached the Spiritual Martial Realm. Although the small snake martial soul didn't awaken, Lin Feng was already very satisfied.

  His Heavenly Martial Soul should only need to unlock the first layer, and he will be able to possess even greater combat power. The second layer of his Martial Soul may be a kind of auxiliary, allowing him to gain mysterious divine abilities that do not need to be released normally.

  "Lingwu realm, first-order repair, from now on, there will be no more enemies." Lin Feng smiled confidently, he could feel how terrifying the transformed dark martial soul was. Just the first order of Tianzhao was equivalent to the evolution of the dark martial soul. Now that he had encountered Lin Xuan again, Lin Feng had absolute confidence in defeating his opponent, even if Lin Xuan was a proud daughter of heaven with an ice and fire dual-source martial soul.

  The rain is still drizzling down, a sliver of light has appeared in the dark sky, dawn is about to break.

  Lin Feng stood up and looked down at his drenched clothes, unable to help but let out a wry smile. He hadn't expected that one moment of sitting would turn into an entire night passing by, it was truly embarrassing.

  He looked up and glanced in the direction of the distance, a flash of coldness flickered in Lin Feng's clean eyes. Last night, the city master's mansion had mobilized so many Lingwu realm eighth and ninth grade martial artists to assassinate him. If his strength was slightly weaker, he would have been killed without a place to bury his body.

  "The lord of the castle, Nalan Feng, you will regret your actions today sooner or later."

  Lin Feng lifted his footsteps and walked towards the distance.
