Chapter 239: Mental Battle

The spirit force was akin to a storm, causing the nearby earth to shake and devastating the surroundings.

Everything in the mother nest shook as rocks and stones rolled.

Feng Lin and the two sisters couldn’t find their footings; their bodies were shuddering too.

This spirit force seemed to already turn material and was incomparably savage and terrifying. Even Feng Lin didn’t have such a tyrannical spirit force.

The army of aberrations gushed forth like the tides, instantly engulfing them.

Feng Lin’s group instantly sensed the difference. The movements of these aberrations were as though they were one entity.

They killed their way into it, unleashing their attacks and just as they opened up a pathway, the other aberrations would rush over like tide water, closing the gap swiftly.

Water was formless.

The aberrations of the army were like water droplets, independent yet moving as one entity. They were like a steel rampart, and it was not so easy to break their defense.

For a period of time, Feng Lin’s group was under great pressure.

These aberrations weren’t stupid monsters like before who only knew how to kill. Now, they were like crack troops of an elite army, well-versed in formations and could aid each other, moving together as one. Now that Feng Lin’s group was surrounded, it wouldn’t be so easy for them to break free.

Tyrant Aura Battle Statue!

Aris instantly unleashed her tyrant aura, forming into a half-body battle statue, protecting her sister Yana.

The giant statue’s punches were like thunder, blasting outward and causing the nearby earth to crack. Those aberrations that rushed forward were all crushed into a pulp.

Twang~

The cudgel sounds filled the air.

The metal cudgel in Feng Lin’s hand danced about, spinning circles and transforming into after-images. It was like a wheel of blood and flesh. Whenever an aberration got into its radius of attack, it would instantly be shattered.

Although the attacks of the three were powerful, the aberrations were almost endless. They had no way to break through the siege so easily. And for a period of time, the pressure on them was as heavy as a mountain.

“Leave quickly!” Aris panted. The situation was extremely dangerous. The aberration queen was still waiting at the side. If they didn’t leave now, they might not be able to leave ever again.

“Wait.” However, Feng Lin actually shook his head. He stared at the changes on the battlefield as he sank into contemplation.

An aberration was a biological weapon that only knew slaughter. Why would there be such a huge change to their behavior? The formations they were in weren’t in any way inferior to the elite armies of humanity.

What was the reason that caused this?

Clearly someone must be commanding them.

Feng Lin’s gaze was like arrows, staring straight at the large-scale queen.

Only the queen had the ability to control all the aberrations on the battlefield. But how did she accomplish it?

He sent out his spirit force and discovered some clues.

The storm generated by the queen’s spirit force earlier exuded a pressure as heavy as a mountain on them, causing them to be wary of it in their hearts.

In the air, countless spirit ripples were present and they formed in the shape of a web, connecting the thoughts of all the aberrations together. Within this web, the queen’s orders could be transmitted with ease.

Feng Lin’s heart stirred. So this was the case.

The brain of aberrations and their thought processes were wired differently from humans. They were cold, cruel, and had no other emotions. It was very difficult to hypnotize them.

This large-scale queen was the current brain of the aberration army. Her thoughts were naturally the brightest out of all the aberrations, and she also had an immensely powerful spirit force, able to form a web of communication and control the weaker aberrations at her will.

If one were to say that these aberrations were soldiers, the queen would undoubtedly be the marshal that was commanding the army.

(So this is the case!)

A smile appeared on Feng Lin’s face as he understood the crux of the matter.

Shared link via spirit force?

This was truly a new method to use spirit force which he had never thought of before.

Although he had awakened the Spirit Gene, the amount of time he had cultivated for was simply too short. He wasn’t yet able to unleash his abilities to their fullest potential.

Awakening a type of ability was one thing, but unleashing their fullest potential was another.

Although low-grade genes were easier to awaken, for their abilities, there was no differentiation between lousy or good. It depended on the user’s proficiency with the ability, but all abilities contained boundless potential.

If one could develop one ability to its greatest potential, even a weak ability could be invincible, not inferior compared to the abilities granted by high-grade genes.

The ability to use spirit force was one such example.

Idealistic-type energy had no restrictions; they had boundless potential. There were also countless ways to use them.

The way this large-scale queen used her spirit force gave Feng Lin a great insight. It allowed him to see a brand new way to use his own spirit force.

Spirit link evidently was a much more high-grade and effective method compared to mental transmission. The ability to keep the messages sent a secret was also much greater.

But as to the exact method to use it, Feng Lin would still need to ponder over it further. Right now, the most important thing was to kill this large-scale queen.

Although Feng Lin didn’t know the theory behind the spirit link, it should be the same as the interstellar network. No matter how complex the theory was, he would just use brute force to break the entire web structure, making it so that the link was useless.

Feng Lin no longer held back. His spirit force gushed forth in tides from the center of his brows like lava from a volcano eruption. It instantly crashed into the formless spirit web, causing the orders sent by the queen to be scrambled and filled with interferences.

Those aberrations were hugging their heads and screaming in pain. The originally unified formation was now in complete chaos.

The pressure on the two sisters instantly alleviated. They couldn’t help but glance at Feng Lin. They had no idea how he had managed to do it.

“These aberrations won’t be able to get into formations anymore; their combat strength is greatly reduced. You girls, try to settle them fast! Leave the queen to me!” Time was tight; thus, Feng Lin didn’t explain too much to them. He said a few words and immediately lunged toward the queen.

Since he had said it, he naturally would do it. He rushed toward the queen alone fearlessly.

The Greek sisters were intelligent people as well—at least one of them. They glanced at each other and immediately attacked the confused aberrations.

Aris’s long hair fluttered in the wind. Her hands spread wide in the air as she unleashed her tyrant aura.

The half-body statue suddenly stood up from the ground as its lower-half manifested, achieving a complete form. It was no longer as illusory as earlier; it was solid and clad in armor like a war god from Ancient Greek mythology. This battle statue had a height of 30 meters, resembling a giant.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

Its thick and muscular legs caused its footsteps to ring out loud. It was as large as a small mountain, and the ground trembled with every step it took.

Those aberrations that couldn’t flee in time were all crushed to a pulp underneath its feet,

The battle statue wielded a long spear in one hand and pierced out with it. Everywhere the spear passed by, the walls of the mother nest would be penetrated through, which forcefully caused a path to open up.

The aberrations were in chaos, and for a period of time, they had no way to retaliate.

Yana stood within the body of the battle statue and was free from all danger. She also acted when she could.

Her eyes gleamed with golden light. Two golden hands appeared behind her, as pure as jade. They emitted a divine luster akin to the hands of a goddess. A golden bow appeared in those hands and with a shrill swishing sound, multiple mental-energy arrows were fired.

Soul’s Arrow!

The aberrations fell batch by batch, and their lives were reaped effortlessly now that they had no way to form troop formations.

A path was opened up by the two sisters. Feng Lin took this opportunity and used the pathway for convenience as he directly moved toward the queen.

The aberration queen screamed and bared its fangs, rushing over to meet Feng Lin.

After abandoning the burden that was the spawning organ, the queen’s size was reduced to only ten meters tall. However, her speed had increased greatly, and she was like an elite warrior. Both her arms had bone blades jutting out; when she spun around, beams of blade light intersected, wanting to tear Feng Lin into pieces.

Feng Lin’s vision was able to keep up with her speed. His metal cudgel swung over, parrying each strike with one of his own, causing sparks to fly upon the impact.

A majestic force gushed over and Feng Lin was forced to retreat.

Due to Feng Lin’s over-accumulation at the interstellar cultivator realm, the moment he broke through, his vitality stat was at the mid-phase of elite cultivators. However, in the face of this large-scale queen that had the power of a late-phase elite cultivator, his strength and speed were both suppressed.

The queen transformed into after-images, circling Feng Lin. Her speed was so quick that the naked eyes could no longer track her. For a period of time, numerous images filled the area around Feng Lin, and not even he could see her true figure clearly.

Numerous blades sliced past him. If he was the slightest bit careless, his skin would have already been sliced off.

But even so, Feng Lin had the defense bestowed by the Stone Monkey Gene. He was hit multiple times, and clear scars could be seen on his skin from the impact.

“Bullet Time!”

Feng Lin instinctively activated Bullet Time, the ability granted to him by the Adrenaline Gene. The world seemed to slow down, and only then did he manage to see the malevolent figure of the queen’s clearly.

His Great Sage Cudgel Arts were displayed as he fought fiercely against the queen.

A human and a monster clashed repeatedly. The aftershock from their battle caused even the air to tremble. The collisions of their spirit force were like the two different realms of Yin and Yang. Chaos was everywhere, and the aberrations near them clutched their heads and howled in pain, feeling like their minds were about to explode. None of the aberrations dared to get near them after that.

After every exchange of blows, Feng Lin’s hands would tremble from the force. He wasn’t a match for the queen.

However, he had no fear at all. Every time he was forced back, he would rush forward again with greater momentum, throwing himself back in combat.

After a long time and having not defeated her opponent, the aberration queen also panicked. She roared and opened her maw, spitting out an inky, greasy black liquid that rapidly burned upon contact with air. Fiery flames instantly engulfed Feng Lin, trapping him within.

Bang!

Feng Lin’s body trembled, shaking the flames free. His clothes were charred but he wasn’t injured at all. His skin shone with a jadelike luster, just like a stone monkey that leaped out from a furnace. The metal cudgel was in his hand as he swung out with it. He spun like a spinning top, causing the cudgel to cut horizontally through the air and resembling a hurricane. It instantly hit the queen a thousand times, causing thunderous boom to ring out.

After fighting for such a long time, he finally saw some clues.

This large-scale queen was a powerful biological weapon. Just based on its combat prowess alone, it was already extremely tough to deal with. However, its methods of attack were too simple. It couldn’t compare to the combat techniques that humanity had refined through countless years.

Using various techniques, Feng Lin could fight the queen on equal grounds. His cudgel slammed into her repeatedly, causing the queen to scream in pain. Evident wounds could also be seen on the dented armor of the queen.

But Feng Lin wasn’t in a good situation either. Numerous white scars appeared on his body, and blood could also be seen seeping out of his wounds.

Shriek!

Seeing that she wasn’t able to defeat a tiny, weak human, the large-scale queen grew increasingly frustrated. She suddenly let out a high-pitched ear-piercing scream that was akin to using needles to prick the eardrums of people.

Formless spirit ripples gushed forth, commanding the aberrations to attack.

Feng Lin had long since anticipated this move. His movements were quick as he dodged into the darkness. He then transformed into a prowler-type as he hid within the darkness, retracting his aura completely. Those aberrations under the queen’s control couldn’t find him.

Despite being under the queen’s control, these aberrations were like headless flies. From the start until the end, they didn’t manage to find Feng Lin.

As for Feng Lin, he leaped out repeatedly, launching sneak attacks on the queen before concealing himself again. The queen could only scream in impotent fury and entered a completely enraged state.

Po~

The space trembled all of a sudden. The queen’s forehead abruptly cracked as a huge eyeball appeared. This eye shot out a silver ray of light, illuminating the area.

“Damn!” Feng Lin sensed danger and wanted to retreat.

However, no matter how fast his speed was, how could he be faster than light? He was instantly enveloped by the light, and his mind fell into an illusion. In the illusion, blood seas churned wildly as countless terrifying aberrations climbed out from the sea. They resembled asuras wanting to slaughter the entire mortal world.

Screams, roars, shrieks, howls—a cacophony of noises mixed together. These monsters lunged toward Feng Lin, wanting to tear his psyche apart.

Spiritual illusion?

Feng Lin’s heart sank.

As a transcendent creature, not only was the body of this large-scale queen powerful, but it could also control spirit force. It was extremely dangerous to fight against it.

Disregarding physical combat, if one were to lose in spirit or mental combat against it, they would undoubtedly die as well.

Also, mental combat was even more dangerous. As long as one was the slightest bit careless, their consciousness and psyche might be damaged and they would become retards or mindless zombies.

At this moment, his vision was filled with stars. A giant monster appeared from the blood sea in the appearance of the large-scale queen. But this queen was at least a thousand meters large.

Feng Lin was as tiny and inconsequential as an ant before it. A claw large enough to blot out the skies swiped out, wanting to crush Feng Lin.

Feng Lin wasn’t frightened. He understood that this was an illusion, and everything was false here. It was not the reality.

In a world created by spirit force, the larger one’s heart was, the greater the amount of spirit force one would be able to muster!

AH!

A baleful qi rose in Feng Lin’s heart. With a loud shout, he stimulated his spirit force and sent it gushing forth. His spirit force grew stronger and stronger with the conviction in his heart, and it actually transformed into a gigantic golden savage ape with a fierce look in its eyes.

This resembled Sun Wukong’s original form, a tyrannical and lawless creature that delighted in wanton destruction.

The golden ape leaped forward and attacked the queen. These two gigantic spirit bodies formed by them got entangled as they did their best to kill each other.

The baleful qi in the heart of the golden ape had been there since ancient times. It hated the heavens and earth, both its fists were like mountains, slamming straight into the queen’s body, causing huge damage.

Under the spirit force backlash, the queen howled in pain.

Feng Lin’s body shuddered. A golden light flickered in his eyes as he regained his consciousness.

Take its life when it is injured!

How could Feng Lin miss out on this rare to come by opportunity? The regenerative ability of the queen was shocking, if he couldn’t crush it in one shot and allowed it to recover, his endurance would surely lose out to the queen’s.

The queen’s vitality stat was extremely high. It would be a fool’s dream if he wanted to depend on nature to kill her like how he killed the small and medium-scale queens. If he wanted to kill her, there was only one way…

And that was to use full-force material attacks and crush it before it could recover!

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

Feng Lin’s cudgel expanded, becoming a giant pillar that continuously smashed against the queen ruthlessly.

A vast amount of might exploded out with each strike. Even the gigantic mother nest couldn’t bear the aftershock and started to collapse.

Feng Lin stood amidst a sea of corpses. His expression was calm, but fatigue could be seen in his eyes. He had almost completely exhausted all his strength.

After killing the queen, he hurriedly sat down cross-legged and took out a small-scaled queen’s gene hypophysis for consumption to regain his strength.

Combat sounds still continued to ring out from the mother nest. These sounds were emitted from the Greek sisters hunting the other aberrations.

His physical strength gradually recovered. But on the outside, an unexpected sound of an intense battle and roar of anger startled Feng Lin awake.

Were there other enemies in this mother nest?

Feng Lin’s eyes flashed with puzzlement as he walked out.

Even before he saw anything, the sound of Aris’s roar of anger had already echoed out loud through the nest.

“Bastards from the Heavenly King Planet, don’t dream about stealing our spoils!”

Did someone want to loot their battle spoils?
