Chapter 85 - Chapter 85: The Void Walker, Zhu Zhuqing's Concerns

"Damn it!"

Ye Feng snapped out of his daze upon hearing the commotion and quickly stopped using this Talent.

Just now, he had been overwhelmed by a flood of insights into the laws of space, leaving him disoriented and slow to react.

Only now, as he looked around, did he notice the abnormality.

After fully digesting this Lexical Trait, Ye Feng finally understood.

The greatest dangers of traversing the void were the Void Turbulence and the rampant Spatial Power.

Any creature that hadn't mastered the laws of space would be instantly torn apart upon entering the void.

Those with strong physical bodies might withstand it for a short while, allowing them to traverse short distances.

But for those with fragile bodies or no ability to resist the spatial shredding, death was almost certain.

The [Void Walker] allowed Ye Feng to etherealize his body, granting him complete immunity to all spatial shredding and turbulence—or more accurately, immunity to all non-spatial types of damage! As long as someone's understanding of spatial laws was weaker than Ye Feng's, they couldn't harm him.

While others couldn't harm Ye Feng, he could still attack them.

Moreover, this Lexical Trait bestowed Ye Feng with a profound understanding of spatial laws. Given time to digest it, he could create spatial-type Soul Skills or even integrate them into his existing ones.

Within the [Star Domain], Ye Feng could already move freely, as he inherently possessed spatial-type Soul Skills. However, his previous understanding of spatial laws had been too shallow.

Now, as he delved deeper into this understanding, the feeling was entirely different.

...

Aside from the [Void Walker] Lexical Trait, the others were also quite impressive.

[Lethal Combo] was the guaranteed Lexical Trait Ye Feng had drawn for Zhu Zhuqing. Her luck was quite good, as it turned out to be a golden Lexical Trait, and it was indeed perfectly suited for her.

Although the effect of this Lexical Trait was powerful, it wasn't suitable for Ye Feng.

He had always crushed his opponents.

If an opponent could withstand 100 of Ye Feng's attacks, he would simply turn tail and run.

If a fight couldn't be resolved within 100 moves, what was the point? Ye Feng would immediately call for reinforcements and summon Di Tian to obliterate the enemy! However, for Zhu Zhuqing, landing 1,000 attacks could be done in an instant.

Then there was [Heavenly Blessing], a red-quality Talent, which was likely the guaranteed draw for Ning Rongrong.

This ability was somewhat useful to Ye Feng, but its utility was limited. The probability was a bit low, and it also had a cooldown.

Ye Feng decided to keep this Lexical Trait for now and test the waters by giving Ning Rongrong an ordinary Lexical Trait first.

If she performed well in the future, he would gift her this one.

[Glory Resonance], a purple Lexical Trait, was well-suited for Ning Rongrong. As a support, she consumed a lot of Soul Power, and this Lexical Trait could significantly increase her stamina.

As for Ye Feng, once he condensed his Soul Core, his Soul Power would be virtually limitless, making this Lexical Trait rather redundant for him.

Most of the other Lexical Traits were ordinary, with a mix of good and bad, and some were outright trash with only negative effects. These were still left for those who might find them useful.

...

...

After countless draws, Ye Feng finally obtained a multicolored Lexical Trait, and his mood lifted instantly. He couldn't wait to test it out.

Ye Feng walked into the courtyard and immediately activated the [Void Walker] state.

The terrifying Spatial Power swept through, churning the soil within a ten-meter radius into a twisted mess.

Only the soil within thirty centimeters of Ye Feng remained relatively unchanged.

Currently, Ye Feng's understanding of spatial rules could only protect such a limited area.

In other words, he could only safely transport one person through space, as long as they were tightly pressed together and the distance between them did not exceed thirty centimeters.

As the [Void Walker] activated, Ye Feng felt himself entering a special space. The real world seemed to shrink into a model, leaving only outlines that were almost entirely transparent.

His vision swept past the Star Sect and arrived at Sky Curtain City.

Continuing to move further, he soon reached Heaven Dou City. Ye Feng's consciousness landed outside Heaven Dou City, where he randomly selected a landing point and then slowly took a step forward.

"Whoosh—"

In the blink of an eye, space shifted, and a faint sense of pressure washed over him as Ye Feng emerged on a hillside outside the city.

Before his eyes stood the massive walls and glorious gates of Heaven Dou City.

In the distance, numerous pedestrians were coming and going.

Ye Feng's sudden appearance drew many gazes, filled with astonishment, followed by admiration and awe.

After all, anyone who could appear out of thin air here must be an extraordinary Soul Master.

Even in Heaven Dou City, Soul Masters were a highly respected profession.

"One step covering ten kilometers—truly worthy of a seven-colored Talent Lexical Trait!" Ye Feng thought to himself, feeling the breeze brush past his ears, his heart filled with emotion.

He assessed his current understanding of spatial rules. If he had a specific destination in mind, he could teleport a maximum of twenty kilometers in one go.

But this wasn't the limit of [Void Walker]; it was Ye Feng's limit.

The latest novel is first published on 69shu!

Because Ye Feng could only "see" this far, likely related to his mental strength.

If the distance exceeded twenty kilometers, the landing point would become highly inaccurate, essentially turning into a random teleportation, with the maximum distance reaching fifty kilometers.

This was only Ye Feng's initial understanding of spatial rules. As his comprehension deepened, this distance would multiply.

Most importantly, this ability consumed almost negligible energy for Ye Feng.

Wherever he wanted to go, he could go!

Ye Feng activated [Void Walker] once more, taking a step and arriving at the training room of the Star Sect.

...

...

In the training field, Zhu Zhuqing was still training alone, drenched in sweat, day after day, tirelessly.

After more than a month of training, Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power level had reached level 33. Without having consumed any Immortal Herbs, her cultivation speed had already surpassed that of many others.

Not only did she have Talent, but she also had perseverance. If this were Ye Feng's previous life, she would undoubtedly be a life winner in whatever she pursued.

Unfortunately, this was a fantasy world, and coupled with Zhu Zhuqing's background, without a heaven-defying opportunity, her future would undoubtedly be tragic.

Taking advantage of a break in Zhu Zhuqing's training, Ye Feng appeared.

"Ah... Ye Feng, how did you suddenly appear here..."

Zhu Zhuqing was startled by Ye Feng's sudden appearance, feeling inexplicably shy.

This month, Ye Feng often came to guide her in her cultivation. Although there were no more opportunities to create a Self-Created Soul Skill like last time, her relationship with Ye Feng had rapidly warmed.

She didn't know what Ye Feng thought of her.

But she knew that she had already fallen deeply in love with him.

After all, she had always held a great fondness for Ye Feng, and after spending so much time together, it was only natural that her feelings had grown.

The more they interacted, the more she understood Ye Feng's strength and the vast, insurmountable gap between them.

This filled her with an overwhelming sense of inferiority, so she didn't dare reveal her feelings in front of him.

But since she didn't know how Ye Feng felt about her, she couldn't bring herself to express her emotions. It was a secret crush, and she was terrified of him finding out.
