Chapter 591: The Astonished Group of Trainees

No wonder so many people spend their whole lives stuck at the peak of the Mortal Realm without breakthrough; the Spirit Realm and the Mortal Realm indeed differ by an overwhelming margin.

Feeling his current soul intensity, Lin Feng's eyes—now unusually lively after breaking into the Spirit Realm—blinked, and he exclaimed in amazement.

After advancing to the Spirit Realm, his soul power became more than ten times stronger than before.

If he now were to compare soul strength with his former self,

a single move would let him instantly kill his former self.

"There's still some time before the Pill Assembly; with my current soul strength, entering the top ten will be no problem."

Lin Feng smiled and thought to himself.

He considered that his current seclusion must have already taken some time.

After a brief contemplation, he decided to first meet Zhong Lao and Dan Chen, then attempt to refine an Eighth Grade Pill.

Incidentally, he could also ask Zhong Lao for guidance.

Although he possesses alchemy notes from Dan Yi Tian, an unknown Eighth Grade Six-Color Alchemist, and the Eighth Grade Two-Color Alchemist Ouyang Jie,

the notes are still just notes and cannot compare to direct instruction from a true Alchemy Master.

He had learned this in recent days.

Though Zhong Lao never entered the Xiao Dan Tower Grand Elder Hall, he is nonetheless an Eighth Grade Seven-Color Alchemy Master.

Gaining guidance from the latter, he will surely be able to refine Eighth Grade Pills even faster.

As for the ingredients needed to refine some lower‑grade Eighth Grade Pills, thanks to the "enthusiastic support" of the Eighth Grade Two-Color Alchemist Ouyang Jie and the many herbs previously brought by Zi Yan, he currently lacks nothing.

He then stood up and strode toward the door of the cultivation chamber.

Afterwards, he flew swiftly away toward his residence.

However, when he returned to his residence, he found not a single silhouette there.

Seeing this, Lin Feng instantly guessed that they had all gone to class.

Immediately, he planted his foot on the ground and flew toward the classroom.

"Whoosh~"

After a short flight, Lin Feng's figure suddenly appeared above the plaza.

As a veteran Eighth Grade Alchemist, Zhong Lao had naturally already noticed the latter heading this way.

He then halted his lecture, his gaze turning toward Lin Feng, slightly stunned.

The other trainees, seeing this, were puzzled yet instinctively followed his line of sight.

Among them was the long‑absent Xiao Yan.

In the next instant, Lin Feng appeared before them.

Whether it was an illusion or not, when they saw Lin Feng,

they always felt that he exuded an ethereal, hard‑to‑pinpoint aura.

"Lin Feng, you actually succeeded in breaking through to the Spirit Realm Soul!"

At that moment, Zhong Lao snapped out of his daze, his voice trembling with incredulous shock.

Previously Lin Feng's soul power was decent, but according to his experience,

it would have taken at least another year for the former to successfully enter the Spirit Realm.

Yet after Lin Feng vanished for just under half a month, he has now directly broken through to the Spirit Realm Soul.

Moreover, from his perception, the former at this moment does not at all look like someone who has just entered the Spirit Realm.

Because Lin Feng has not only fully stabilized in this realm, but his soul intensity is on par with that of some Eighth Grade Three-Color Alchemists.

"Wow!"

The trainees beside them, upon hearing Zhong Lao's words, erupted in a chorus of awe.

Their expressions instantly changed dramatically, their faces filled with shock.

Now they finally understand why, when they saw the former earlier, they always sensed a special aura about him!

And those seated here naturally possess considerable insight.

They know very well in their hearts just how enormous the gap between the Mortal Realm and the Spirit Realm truly is!

As for Cao Ying, her charming face also brimmed with an expression of disbelief.

Previously, when she lost to Lin Feng in the assessment, she did not attribute it to her soul strength.

She thought it was due to her lack of combat experience, having fallen for his tactics, that caused her defeat.

But now, in terms of soul power, he has left her far behind.

This makes her, who has been accustomed to victory since childhood, momentarily find it hard to accept.

"Hmph, Lin Feng, just wait for me; someday, I, this lady, will definitely crush you completely!"

In Cao Ying's crimson eyes flashed a hint of defiance, and she clenched her teeth, saying.

As for Song Qing, a trace of jealousy flickered in his eyes.

As a disciple of the Xiao Dan Tower Grand Elder, he only broke through to Seventh Grade Pinnacle Alchemist a little over two months ago.

Yet Lin Feng is just an unknown youngster; how can he so easily surpass him?

For the Spirit Realm Soul, he fears it would take at least three to five years of diligent cultivation to even have a chance to break through.

However, Lin Feng at this moment was completely unaware of the two's thoughts.

Upon hearing Zhong Lao's inquiry, he instantly nodded, smiled lightly, and said: "This time my luck is good; having successfully broken through to the Spirit Realm Soul, I just want to ask Zhong Lao about refining Eighth Grade Pills."

"Sss!"

Hearing the latter confirm it himself, everyone inhaled a gasp of cold air.

While they were still stuck at Seventh Grade, Lin Feng had already begun studying the refinement of Eighth Grade Pills.

How can the gap between people be so huge?

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan, upon hearing that the former's soul power had broken through to the Soul Realm's soul, couldn't help but frown.

The stronger Lin Feng's strength became, the lower his chances of obtaining the former's Different Fire.

Moreover, the former's relationship with him was not good.

Therefore, he naturally did not want to see Lin Feng's strength grow.

"Hah~"

Upon hearing the former's answer in person, Zhong Lao let out a light breath, his eyes still showing some shock.

Back when he was over sixty, he only just managed to break through to the Soul Realm's soul.

But Lin Feng, now only in his twenties, has already reached that realm.

If he continues to grow like this, he might be able to break through to become an Eighth-Grade Peak Alchemist.

As for the Ninth-Grade level, he hardly dares to think about it.

Afterward, he slowly said, "It just so happens I have nothing else to do; after class ends, I'll guide you on how to refine an Eighth-Grade Pill. For now, let's find a place to sit."

"Yes."

Lin Feng nodded, then his gaze swept over the crowd.

Finally, his gaze lingered on Dan Chen.

Immediately after, he lifted his leg and walked toward that spot.

Of course, he naturally also noticed that Xiao Yan, who had been missing for a long time, had reappeared here.

At the same time he also discovered that that guy's Dou Qi strength had reached the Three-Star Dou Zong level.

However, Lin Feng still wasn't afraid of that strength.

"Congratulations, Big Brother Lin Feng."

When Lin Feng came to her side, Dan Chen, her voice weak, congratulated him.

Hearing that, Lin Feng immediately smiled gently and said, "Given your current soul power, Little Sister Dan Chen, you could also enter the Soul Realm within at most one year, and you're even younger than I am by a few years."
