Chu Feng usually felt compassion for the lonely and helpless elderly and the weak. What he was witnessing now was far worse. To him, these cold-blooded, armored knights were more brutal and heinous than any wild beast.
They spared no one, not even infants in swaddling clothes, who were tossed into the air as blood splattered. They even delivered an extra blow to elderly women, already legless and with clouded eyes.
An indescribable emotion surged within Chu Feng, like a potent force, causing his spirit to tremble. He yearned to utterly wipe out this band of ruthless murderers and villains!
"Like countless threads, continuous and unending." Despite his rage, Chu Feng remained calm. His eyes gleamed as he focused on the activated magnets, setting up an offensive energy field. He could feel the profound and mysterious "field energy."
These were glowing threads, connecting one magnet to another. Though they appeared thin and harmless, they now possessed astonishing destructive power.
"Haha, where do you think you're going? Today, we'll slaughter every last one, leaving no one alive!" A knight in heavy bronze armor burst into laughter, his teeth stark white. Wielding a long, dazzling saber, he rode a scaled monster, leaping forward to cleave at a group of children.
However, the moment the man and his mount leaped, something terrifying occurred. A glowing thin line, sharper than any blade and incredibly tough, severed the monster's neck and then sliced through the knight's waist.
"Thud!" The scaled monster became a headless mount, while the knight's upper and lower body separated, effectively bisected at the waist. He let out a wail as he plummeted to the ground.
Behind him, three more mounted figures grinned cruelly, wielding fierce weapons and charging through the air on their horses, striking with ruthless force.
But at that very moment, they met similar fates. One's head was severed by a glowing thin line, rolling across the ground, and their weapon clattered to the earth with a sharp clang.
Another, along with his mount, was diagonally bisected from the shoulder, his wild grin frozen in place, as he tumbled into a pool of blood.
Even Chu Feng himself was astonished. So this was how the energy field operated! The "field energy," invisible to ordinary people, truly existed. It appeared thin and delicate, yet it was incredibly tough, comparable to a blade!
"Field energy" is the energy of the field, a manifestation of magnetic resonance. It resonates with symbols inscribed within the magnets, generating a unique and powerful form of energy.
These threads of field energy, continuous and unending, appear delicate, yet they can nourish both the body and weapons. When used in an offensive field, their lethality is terrifying!
Within the energy field system, even researchers with the most profound mastery could rarely perceive this "field energy."
"What's happening?" In the distance, a towering knight, resembling a small mountain, spoke in a strange language, yet Chu Feng could understand his meaning.
Here, beings from various races and galactic civilizations communicated through a mental wave, allowing them to understand each other.
"A mature 'rebel seed'?" The mountain-sized knight scowled, "Didn't any of you see him? Who let him go? An adult male, why wasn't such a 'rebel seed' killed sooner?!"
He was clearly referring to Chu Feng while simultaneously reprimanding the other knights.
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng didn't know whether to be angry or amused. These butchers, these cold-blooded executioners, referred to the native inhabitants as "rebel seeds." In their view, no male "rebel seed" over the age of eighteen should be left alive; they should have been eradicated long ago.
This was utterly cruel, tyrannical, and cold-blooded. The tragic reality left the women, children, and the elderly and weak feeling helpless and despairing.
*Boom!* A small squad of ten mounted figures arrived, all clad in bronze armor. They uttered strange cries, laughing excitedly, their eyes fierce, and their stark white teeth chilling as they charged towards Chu Feng.
Chu Feng's forehead glowed. Clusters of magnets on the ground lit up, illuminated by the mental light beam emitted from his forehead. He inscribed symbols within the magnets, causing them to resonate.
Then, clusters of magnets flew out. This time, the thin, glowing threads reappeared, continuous, fine, and long, even more numerous than before.
The glowing thin lines connected, forming a crystalline and brilliant spiderweb that enveloped them as they approached. This was far from the sparse field energy he had used moments ago.
As the first monster-riding knight was enveloped, his body was sliced as if by a knife, neatly turning into chunks of flesh. The other iron cavalry, who had charged forward with excited yells, soon met the same fate.
The area became quite bloody. After the glowing net descended, only the spaces within the mesh were safe; every other spot was sliced as if by sharp swords, neatly cutting down both riders and mounts.
"Ah..." Someone screamed terribly just before dying. They were fierce, but in the face of death, they were utterly terrified, their screams piercing the air.
This scene greatly astonished the fleeing women and children nearby; someone was actually slaughtering the executioners!
"Among these old, weak, and disabled, a 'toothed insect' has actually snuck in and dared to harm my subordinates! Seize him!"
The knight, as vast as a small mountain, spoke chillingly, issuing another command.
He was a giant, and his dark purple skin made him appear incredibly fierce. Wielding a long halberd, he personally moved to confront Chu Feng while simultaneously ordering his men to capture and kill him.
He rode a mammoth, a massive creature hundreds of feet long, whose white tusks resembled two broadswords. When it ran, the ground shook.
Many bloodstains lay nearby, remnants of the native inhabitants who had been tragically trampled to death by this extraordinary mammoth not long ago.
Chu Feng became even calmer. Despite the murderous intent boiling within him, he maintained a clear mind, choosing to set up the most optimal energy field to eliminate his enemies.
The attacking knights were experienced; they began striking from a distance, their energy amplified by their weapons and radiating outwards, intending to kill Chu Feng from afar.
However, this time Chu Feng set up a defensive energy field. Before him, it was like a quagmire, with the glowing threads denser and piled together, capable of absorbing incoming energy and reinforcing his own defense.
The defensive field—"Quagmire"—was perfectly established.
By the time the knights charged, it had absorbed enough energy. The iron cavalry, unable to perceive this "field energy," swarmed forward.
As expected, like entering a swamp, the more they struggled after falling in, the deeper they sank.
In the end, the group wailed as their life force completely drained away, effectively "smothered" alive within the field.
"Kill!" The dark purple-skinned giant, seated atop the mammoth, let out a roar and personally charged into the fray.
This leader was formidable. He thrust his halberd, unleashing a sky-shattering beam of light that struck towards Chu Feng from a distance. With a loud *boom*, the defensive field—"Quagmire"—was pierced and immediately exploded.
Chu Feng shifted his body sideways as the energy beam from the halberd flew past, obliterating a distant stone mountain.
The mammoth bellowed, exuding ferocity, and leaped up. It was surprisingly nimble, almost flying as it crossed over mountains, a truly astonishing sight.
Its speed was immense. With a *bang*, as it landed, several pitiable native inhabitants with impaired legs—who had lost their feet in earlier battles—couldn't dodge in time. They were trampled into a bloody paste by the mammoth, unable to utter a single sound before death.
"Beast!" Chu Feng's anger flared. Even though he roughly guessed that these were no longer real native inhabitants and that this place was likely a trial ground simulating past events, he still felt a lump in his throat.
The next moment, Chu Feng vanished. This giant knight was too powerful, and even the mammoth was exceptionally fierce; ordinary evolvers could not contend with it.
Chu Feng then set up a defensive energy field: "Ghost Mist."
Here, the magnetic field was chaotic and filled with lethal intent. The mist caused people to lose their sense of direction, trapping them within. This was an upgraded version of the "ghost wall" field.
As expected, the giant knight, once inside, could no longer find Chu Feng.
Chu Feng tried several times; ordinary offensive fields were simply insufficient to kill this giant knight. He had tough skin, immense internal energy, and was capable of neutralizing various lethal intents and shattering the field energy.
He was a true master.
However, if one offensive field wasn't enough, he'd use two; if two weren't enough, then three... He repeatedly upgraded, continuously setting up and stacking the fields.
"Rebel seed, come and die! Your race should have been annihilated. Those two 'Reflectors of the Heavens' were obliterated and became food for our lords' mounts. As for your 'Sage Master,' he's also nearing his end; our lord has personally descended to kill him. None of you can defy destiny anymore. The remaining 'rebel seeds' must all perish!"
The giant knight's voice was calm but chilling.
He was retreating, attempting to leave the "Ghost Mist," but found it difficult to escape immediately.
*Boom!* Ultimately, Chu Feng stacked four small offensive fields, trapping him, then launched a furious assault.
The giant's right shoulder exploded, and his arm fell away. He roared in rage, switching his halberd to his other hand, sweeping it in all directions.
The next moment, a beam of light struck the mammoth's forehead, shattering its skull. Its massive body crashed down, and the giant fell with it.
*Puff, puff, puff...* Blood mist continuously burst forth. The giant suffered severe injuries, his dark purple skin tearing as the four entangled field energies sliced and cut open his body.
As his neck was attacked, he roared and struggled, but it was utterly futile; his massive head rolled down.
It was a slaughter. Chu Feng wielded his energy fields, cutting a path of destruction!
Eventually, a hundred-man squad was annihilated, with the dark purple-skinned giant being its leader.
Chu Feng gasped for breath, his spirit weary from the immense drain of constantly using his mental power to inscribe symbols within the magnets.
He leaned against a large rock, breathing deeply. A cloud of white mist enveloped him as he used a special breathing technique to restore his vitality and spirit.
Beside him, a group of children watched nervously, worried for him and carefully guarding him. The elderly, weak, and infirm also observed silently, their faces showing gratitude.
Finally, Chu Feng recovered.
He knew he had passed the second stage of the legacy, but instead of stopping, he continued forward, seeking out more enemies.
Ultimately, he annihilated ten hundred-man squads, killing ten minor leaders similar to the purple giant, fully deploying various offensive and defensive energy fields.
During this period, he also faced lethal threats, nearly dying several times when surrounded by the iron cavalry.
After eliminating over a thousand individuals in total, the area was devoid of grim faces and the cruel laughter of pursuit; this entire force of iron cavalry had been completely annihilated.
Chu Feng lay on the ground, unable to move, with several wounds piercing through his body, from which blood continuously flowed.
He had narrowly escaped death, almost perishing there.
Yet, he ultimately succeeded in eliminating all the executioners!
Practicing the special breathing technique, he was enveloped in white mist. Furthermore, since unlocking his heart's shackles, he possessed astonishing recovery abilities.
Even so, it took him a long time for his wounds to heal, as he struggled back from the brink of death.
"Thank you!" The women and children transformed into showers of light, rising in vast numbers, their faces filled with gratitude before they vanished, finally merging into the starry sky.
"Big brother, goodbye, thank you!" The children, with pure, tearful eyes, waved to him before also transforming into showers of light and disappearing into the starry sky.
"Goodbye!" Chu Feng swayed, stumbled to his feet, and waved back at them. A pang of sadness hit him; this was likely a farewell that meant he would never see them again.
Only then did the incomplete dark-red energy tower emerge, speaking softly, its previous indifference gone: "Application of knowledge, over-completed."
This was its assessment, another instance of "over-completion," far exceeding the normal benchmark.
At the same time, it swayed, facing the disappearing points of light in the starry sky, as if... saluting them, seemingly immensely sad.
Chu Feng remained silent, also gazing at the starry sky.
Long after, the dark-red energy tower finally spoke: "Eliminating ten people counts as passing."
Only then did Chu Feng understand just how much "over-completion" truly exceeded the standard. Yet, there was no joy in his heart. He looked at the starry sky and sighed softly.
"Such an extent of over-completion is too dangerous; it shouldn't be done like this. You nearly died eight times during it." The incomplete energy tower was no longer cold and ruthless; its words to Chu Feng became more numerous, expressing concern for his safety.
"Why haven't these bodies disappeared yet?" Chu Feng asked.
Because there was still a lot of blood on the ground, along with the corpses of the iron cavalry.
"They were already here; why would they disappear?" the dark-red energy tower replied.
"What? What I just experienced was real?" Chu Feng's heart trembled. He abruptly turned to look at the tower.
"Only these iron cavalry corpses are real. Those children and women, after all, have long since vanished into the annals of time. Perhaps some managed to escape," the energy tower replied.
It told Chu Feng that the true iron cavalry were incredibly powerful, capable of traversing the starry sky, while those here were merely puppet corpses.
Chu Feng fell silent. He knew this naturally, for in the starry sky images he had seen, those individuals could traverse star roads and conquer wormholes.
"If you had died here just now, you would have truly died, with no resurrection, and it would have been these very executioners who killed you."
Subsequently, the third stage began.
This time, there was no danger; he simply faced book after ancient book, each bearing the aura of time's vicissitudes.
Some books would crumble with a light touch, necessitating extreme caution.
These ancient texts were exceptionally precious, containing the very things Chu Feng deeply desired: energy field models. He needed to memorize them perfectly, without any errors.
While this process would be dry for many, for Chu Feng it was a brand new experience, a novel world from which he continuously absorbed and learned.
If he couldn't understand something, he would simply memorize it. He couldn't afford to miss out on so many valuable texts.
Some secret texts detailed the construction of only one energy field per book, making them intricate and difficult.
Chu Feng felt as if months, even a year or two, had passed. He finally committed everything to memory, desperately cramming it all into his mind, afraid of missing the opportunity.
"It was much shorter than I imagined. It's over, over-completed!"
The dark-red energy tower appeared and informed him.
Then, it added, "Everything is complete, all over-completed!"
