Looting the life force of demons to forge a golden body Martial God-Chapter 323 - 311: Intensive Study and Enlightenment in the Solitary Confinement Room, The Enemy’s Propaganda Onslaught, A Ruthless Strike!
Chapter 323: Chapter 311: Intensive Study and Enlightenment in the Solitary Confinement Room, The Enemy’s Propaganda Onslaught, A Ruthless Strike!
Less than two hours later, Chu Feng returned to the familiar solitary confinement room.
The solitary confinement room was a small room of over twenty square meters, containing only a small bed, a meditation cushion, and nothing else.
The floor, walls, and ceiling were all covered with a thick layer of cotton and hemp to prevent the person being held from injuring themselves, while there was also a surveillance camera on the ceiling, monitoring at all times.
It was naturally a very boring place, and every moment here was torturous.
"Get in!" Lu Lin said irritably, "If there’s anything, just call me. I’ll be guarding the door during this time."
Chu Feng said with a smile, "Thanks for your efforts, tutor! But are the Lin Family people really so brazen as to take action within the school?"
"Are they as brazen as you? No, that’s not brazenness, that’s recklessness on your part!"
Lu Lin glanced at the disciplinary staff passing through the corridor, lowering his voice to say, "The Lin Family is one of the three great families of Longhua, renowned for their battle achievements and also known for their brutal and eccentric actions.
"Things other families wouldn’t do, those strong figures in the Lin Family would.
"Especially the direct relatives of Lin Hao, who now harbor deep hatred against you.
"Without anyone watching over, I fear you’d be dead here by the next day."
Chu Feng realized that most people seemed to have some apprehension toward the Lin Family.
Recalling how the Lin Family blatantly murdered the top scholar in the past to seize their position, he had a premonition that he would have to confront the Lin Family sooner or later.
"What are the realms of the experts in the Lin Family?" Chu Feng asked.
Lu Lin glanced at him and said, "A hundred years ago, the old ancestor who led the rise of the Lin Family ascended to the Hunyuan Realm twenty years ago and then retired from the martial world, never to appear again.
"We’ve discussed it privately; the old ancestor of the Lin Family is also a martial genius of his generation. After twenty years, he has a great chance of advancing to Dharma Aspect and becoming a half-god of the Human Race."
Then he added, "You don’t have to worry too much, though. What you committed isn’t trivial, but it’s not serious enough to alarm the old ancestor of the Lin Family.
"Still, you have to be prepared to face the Cave Heaven Level martial artists among Lin Hao’s lineage."
Chu Feng nodded deeply, suddenly feeling a sense of urgency in his heart.
Cave Heaven Warriors were just Lu Lin’s speculation; what if the Lin Family sent a Yin Yang Realm martial artist instead?
The Lin Family was so domineering and had a history of bullying the weak; such actions were not out of the question for them.
With his current strength, he was not yet a match for the Yin and Yang.
He needed to enhance his strength!
He immediately said, "Tutor, during this time I would like to ask you to teach me the techniques of opening up and nourishing acupoints; I need to improve my realm as soon as possible!"
Lu Lin looked at him sideways and snorted, "Now you know to be anxious? Fine, I’m tied to you now anyway. I’ll put in some extra effort during this time, and we’ll sharpen the gun on the eve of battle!"
"Thank you, tutor!"
...
Chu Feng entered the solitary confinement room and sat cross-legged at the door, listening to Lu Lin outside describing the methods of acupoint opening and nurturing, gradually sinking into a deeply missed state of intense cultivation.
Though this place could not be called a haven of tranquility, it was also free of disturbances.
But outside, the world was already in turmoil due to the actions Chu Feng had taken!
The Lin Family, upon receiving the news of Lin Hao’s death, sent family members to the law enforcement department in Yanjing at the first opportunity, demanding Chu Feng’s capture.
After encountering obstacles from Yan University, they efficiently escalated the situation and split into three groups to protest at the gates of Yan Capital University, the headquarters of the Law Enforcement Department, the Academy Alliance, and the government residence.
Subsequently, Chu Feng’s "atrocities" were exposed in newspapers and on the internet!
Soon, a series of sensational headlines flooded the web and media, buzzing with rumors and indignation: "Shocking! Yan Capital University student publicly slaughters classmate!" "Why is Yan University desperately protecting a murderer?" "Since when has a university become a haven for harboring criminals?" "What exactly is wrong with Longhua’s education system?"
All well-informed individuals across Longhua Jiuzhou were discussing the appalling incident, and in no time, Chu Feng’s infamy had spread throughout Longhua.
It even reached other major regions overseas!
A surge of malice converged into waves, vowing to crush Chu Feng to smithereens.
Meanwhile, the Lin Family had not yet decided to let the matter rest.
They joined forces with Longhua’s various Martial Families, putting pressure on the Academy Alliance and Yan Capital University, demanding that Yan University hand over the murderer Chu Feng to face legal punishment and to postpone the promotion of the Composite Technique.
The reason was that the founder of the Composite Technique was suspected of illegal and criminal behavior, which necessitated a reevaluation of the Composite Technique to investigate whether it possessed the characteristics of Forbidden Spells and whether it could alter the cultivator’s temperament.
If this technique could subtly change the mindset of Martial Artists, turning them into cold-blooded, ruthless killing machines, then what use was this technique?
A technique is not a Forbidden Spell; it’s meant to protect Longhua, not to kill fellow members of the Human Race!
Ha, you say there’s no such hidden danger?
Then why did Chu Feng act so recklessly and ferociously? Could his temperament have been influenced by the technique?
It must undergo thorough scrutiny!
At this point, the Martial Families led by the Lin Family were overwhelmingly dominant, putting Yan Capital University in a tough spot, gasping for breath.
Even high-ranking individuals within the Academy Alliance dialed Ge Yunsong’s communication terminal, inquiring about the details of the incident and hinting that Ge Yunsong should abandon protection of Chu Feng in exchange for the smooth progress of promoting the Composite Technique.
The entire Academy Alliance recognized the importance of the Composite Technique, and lately, most of their focus had shifted to its promotion.
As a result, many of them ultimately chose the Composite Technique.
As for the creator of the technique... If Zhang the butcher dies, there are Li and Wang the butchers, how would that affect eating pork?
After all, the concept of the technique is already public; except for Chu Feng’s own practice of the most complete, seven-attribute Composite Technique, techniques with six or fewer attributes are no longer secret.
The skills required to couple the various parts of the techniques are not significantly different—just add one more attribute, and the complexity increases by a multiple.
Given enough time, even by sheer exhaustion, they could decipher the seven-attribute Composite Technique!
...
"These short-sighted fools, claiming the benefits now and then intending to kill the donkey once it’s served its purpose?
"Not one of them stops to think how long that donkey could still turn the millstone, how many rabbits that dog could still catch in the future!"
Ge Yunsong hung up a call from an old classmate, sneering to himself.
Nie Yan sat beside him, silent for a moment before saying, "How much more capable Chu Feng is, how far he can go in Martial Arts, and how much he can contribute to Longhua is still an unknown.
"In comparison, the benefits of the Composite Technique are tangible. As long as promotion continues, it will surely bear fruit."
Facing the relentless waves of public opinion, he too felt his scalp tingle, overwhelmed by immense pressure, and in his heart, he couldn’t help but make a choice.
Even though Chu Feng was considered his nominal disciple, that was not more important than the growth of all of Longhua.
Ge Yunsong glanced at him, smiling and said, "Don’t worry, it’s just our turn.
"Give the orders to push forward with full force per the plan!
"Good swimmers can drown too—I want them to drown in the tsunami they’ve stirred up with their own hands!"
