Chapter 169: Chapter 169: It was
who did it
"What level of a superior fighter are you?" Although he was very unwilling to accept the fact that Lin Feng was also a cultivator, Shi Lei now clearly understood that Lin Feng was not on the sa level as himself. No one knew exactly how powerful he was, but deep inside, Shi Lei felt an intolerable sense of resentnt. There are few cultivators in Tianhai, and I had to pick a fight with Lin Feng, the most hidden among them. Isn’t that just asking for trouble? But really, Lin Feng, why do you have to hide your strength so deeply? Are you trying to play the pig to catch the tiger? Oh no! Now I’ve put myself in such a pickle that I might even lose my life!"
"Being more powerful than you is enough," Lin Feng said indifferently, clearly understanding what was going through Shi Lei’s mind, but he did not want to say much to soone like Shi Lei.
"What are you planning to do with
now?" Shi Lei felt his heart shattering. When he arrived, he was full of confidence, hoping to handle Lin Feng this way or that. But in the blink of an eye, the situation took a 180-degree turn. Now he was like at on a chopping board, and Lin Feng could do with him whatever he wanted. His heart was filled with endless regret. If only I hadn’t provoked Lin Feng, then I wouldn’t be in this state now!
Today, I clearly didn’t read the almanac before leaving the house. Where did I think I was kicking—an iron board? It was more like an iron mountain! I failed to harm Lin Feng but ended up implicating myself instead. Although I pray incessantly, hoping Lin Feng would release
right away, the fact he’s still letting
lie on the ground is telling enough of Lin Feng’s attitude toward !
"Just spare my life, and with the Dharma Art, I can recover quickly. Then there will be plenty of chances for
to beco stronger. One day, I will surpass Lin Feng. I will trample him underfoot and take back what I lost today!"
"You have ill intentions, and with such power, you’re a scourge. So, I’ve decided to nullify your Dharma Art, and from now on, you will just be an ordinary person, no longer a cultivator," Lin Feng said, and then he imdiately took action and abolished Shi Lei’s Cultivation Power.
Nullify my Dharma Art, you must be joking! I have never heard of a cultivator’s Dharma Art being nullified by an external force. This isn’t like in the martial arts novels where they say soone’s Cultivation Power can be abolished and it is. This is reality. The first thing my master taught
when I started learning was that once you enter the ranks of cultivators, unless you die, you will always be a cultivator.
Just as Shi Lei wanted to argue against Lin Feng’s statent, he unexpectedly found that he couldn’t speak, and the pain in his body seed to be intensifying, as if his bones were going to explode. Eventually, he couldn’t bear the pain and passed out!
...
When Shi Lei ca to, he had no idea how much ti had passed. He looked around; Lin Feng had disappeared. Now, it felt like he had just had a nightmare, except his body was in excruciating pain! Recalling what Lin Feng had said, he still thought Lin Feng was bluffing, having just used so thod to tornt him, deceiving him in order to make him suffer more, so that he wouldn’t use his skills to do evil in the future.
But it really hurt so much. Shi Lei, in agony, tried to use his Dharma Art to alleviate the pain, but at that mont, he realized that there wasn’t a trace of True Qi left in his body; even his ridians had been severed into pieces...
It’s gone! It’s really gone!
Ah...
My True Qi that I’ve cultivated for so many years, how can it be gone? Impossible! Impossible!
I went through untold hardships for this True Qi, suffered innurable pains, and now they’re telling
it’s all gone. That ans all my past efforts have been in vain. I’m no longer a cultivator who stands above the average person. I’ve completely beco an ordinary person, an ordinary person!
No, I can’t accept this, I can’t accept this.
At this thought, Shi Lei tried to forcibly activate his Dharma Art to repair his ridians, but found that it was impossible. No matter how hard he tried, his ridians remained fragnted without the slightest chance of repair. Instead, forcibly circulating his power caused pain in his body as if a myriad of ants were gnawing at his bones!
No, it must be possible, it must be. My master said that no one could nullify a cultivator’s True Qi!
The unwillingness in his heart made Shi Lei endure the unimaginable severe pain and continue to desperately force his cultivation power. Soon, he was sweating profusely as if he had been fished out of the water, and at last, he could not bear it any longer and passed out once again.
After a long while, when Shi Lei woke up, he found that his True Qi was still completely gone, and his ridians were still blocked, without any signs of recovery.
Shi Lei felt utterly and completely hopeless...
"Ah..." So it was true what Lin Feng said, he really had destroyed my Dharma Art...
Oh my God! How could there be a cultivator like Lin Feng in this world, who, upon fighting with soone else, could detect the operational routes of the opponent’s Dharma Art and disable it just like that? With soone like him around, how can other cultivators even live?
From now on, I’ll just be an ordinary person. Thinking of this, Shi Lei’s tears flowed unconsciously. The thrill of doing things with the support of a Dharma Art was gone forever. Without the support of a Dharma Art, I have beco thoroughly an ordinary person! Now I deeply regret why I had to provoke Lin Feng back then. This ti I’ve really done it, trapping myself completely and jeopardizing all my power.
If only I hadn’t provoked Lin Feng, I could still be living well with a Dharma Art on ...
...
After dealing with Shi Lei, Lin Feng returned to his villa carrying so items. As he opened the door, he saw his mother busily working in the living room, which struck him as odd; it had been a long ti since his mom had been this busy, and she seed very excited but he didn’t know why.
"Mom, I’m back, what is this..." Lin Feng put down the things he was holding, and then ca over to greet his mother. He saw the coffee table covered with dense docuntation. What was she doing? Since his return, she had never been this way before. What was making her so excited?
"Son, tell Mom the truth, did you really develop that formula you gave to Professor Wang Bo?" Zhang Lan looked at her son, not knowing how to express how impressed she was; she had scrutinized various valuation reports and understood the exact worth of the formula. In fact, it could dominate the global heavy-duty cleaning market for at least five years. What a concept that is! It ant that as long as the formula went into production, the entire heavy-duty cleaning domain would be hers to command. The market potential was simply unbelievable!
Yet there it was, right in front of her. Dr. Wang Bo had already confird to her that the formula was indeed invented by her son. But she couldn’t believe that her son had beco so incredible, capable of casually inventing sothing so earth-shattering. Is this really my son?
"I made it, there was a little incident at the school chemistry lab, and I just mixed up this thing on the spot, Mom, what’s up with it?" Lin Feng looked at his mother’s excitent, even more perplexed. Was it just a formula? Was there really a need for such excitent?
Could it be because of Professor Wang Bo’s visit this morning? What exactly did Wang Bo say to his mother to get her so stimulated? It was clear that his mother must have been this excited all day. It was just a formula; did it deserve such a reaction?
"Son, do you understand the value of your formula? It could dominate the entire global market for high-strength cleaners for at least five years. Do you grasp what that ans? It ans that once it goes into production, orders from all over the world will be unceasing, and we can set the price! Behind this is a global market, the entire domain of high-strength cleaners will be ours to dictate. Just the value of the formula is already worth billions, because it will create hundreds of billions, even trillions, of wealth!" As Zhang Lan spoke, she beca more and more thrilled, her cheeks flushing with excitent and pride for her son’s invention.
Her son had really beco so capable. He was no longer the frivolous person he had been before his disappearance. The son she knew now was calm, composed, unruffled by situations, a good cook, and he took care of his old parents. Life had been very enjoyable already, but who could have known her son would bring such a huge surprise out of the blue? If it weren’t for Professor Wang Bo’s visit, probably no one would have known about it!
Although the company had started to improve under her son’s assistance recently, slowly getting back on the right track and beginning to make profits and grow rapidly, when faced with her son’s formula and looking at the assessnt report and the market prospects of the project, her heart couldn’t stay calm. Her company, compared to this project, could be virtually disregarded as non-existent, because as a businessperson she knew the true extent of what was behind this market. If she managed the developnt and oversight of this product, they could surely grow even bigger than the original conglorate!
What did that an? It ant that just with this formula, the Lin Family could rise from the ashes again, returning to the splendor they had before her son’s disappearance, or even surpassing the past and becoming one of the wealthy families in Tianhai City. With this thought, Zhang Lan’s heart raced even faster, and she privately made a decision. For her son’s future, no matter what, she had to make this project a success—even if one day she and her partner were no longer here, her son could be at ease!
