Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 323 - 79: Spiritual Baptism, Ability Awakening
Ling Feng felt a blast in his Sea of Consciousness.
A mystical power entered his body.
Like peeling silk from a cocoon, it followed the Sea of Consciousness, spreading towards his spirit, intending to enlighten his spirit and enhance his spiritual power.
But during this process, that power suddenly rampaged wildly, making him feel even more uncomfortable than when Huang Ling performed a spiritual baptism for him.
It should be known that now his combat power has entered the realm of Qi Phase Martial Artists and has successfully opened the sixth layer of Dharma Aspect, with physical fitness exceeding 500.0.
Even with such a physique, he found the spiritual baptism to be a torment, immediately making him sweat profusely, feeling like his body was about to explode any moment.
The voice of the King of North of the River involuntarily echoed in his mind.
"The value of Realm Traveler’s spiritual baptism is priceless, not only can it enhance your spiritual power, but it also allows you to understand how the spirit originates from the body, making it easier for you to awaken a continuous flow of spiritual power from your body in cultivation later.
So when that pain arrives, you must endure it. As long as you make it through, it’s clear skies ahead, and no matter what, never give up!"
"Ahhh!"
Ling Feng couldn’t help but grit his teeth, howling.
With such great benefits, how could he waste them in vain?
But when he thought of his Coasting Along Attribute.
Damn it.
Crash!
He quickly lost his resistance, collapsing to the ground, becoming the first person to fall down at the scene.
"Ling Feng..."
The King of North of the River panicked.
"Get up quickly!"
Ao Dagang also shouted.
"Bastard, why did he give up so quickly?"
Huo Family felt indignant.
"Could it be an empty show?"
Zheng Ningbo felt puzzled.
"He must be a sneaky guy, maybe opposing the first spiritual suppression by relying on bloodline power, which consumed most of it, leading to his total defeat during the spiritual baptism."
"Just passing off as real, I said so, how could Jiangbei Province suddenly have two Martial Dao students successfully advance to the second round, whereas our Jiangzhou Province only had one? Look, our Martial Dao student is still standing strong."
"The value of a spiritual baptism from a Realm Traveler is priceless, even prodigies from first-tier provinces wouldn’t easily give up, which shows that Ling Feng indeed isn’t much."
...
The crowd discussed fervently.
Of course, they soon ignored Ling Feng.
Because Ling Feng came from a fourth-tier province, he inherently had no attention value, being noticed only because he was the first Martial Dao student to fall during this spiritual baptism; everyone couldn’t help but glance at him a few more times.
Five minutes.
Finally, a second Martial Dao student couldn’t hold on and fell to the ground, also from a fourth-tier province.
Slowly, more and more Martial Dao students fell down.
Ming Cheng lasted ten more minutes than Ling Feng; after he fell, Lin Yanping followed suit.
Eventually, only geniuses from first and second-tier provinces were left standing.
Half an hour later.
Lin Chunchi couldn’t hold on anymore and also fell to the ground.
"This guy doesn’t have any Spiritual Realm at all, I was overthinking it."
Lin Chunchi lay weakly on the ground, looking at Ling Feng who had fallen behind him, then closed his eyes, silently refining his spiritual power.
"Sigh!"
Ling Feng sighed inwardly.
He knew that being the first Martial Dao student to fall, the King of North of the River and Ao Dagang would undoubtedly be extremely disappointed, and even the entire Jiangbei Province would feel ashamed.
But he couldn’t help it.
If the spiritual baptism was as comfortable as Coasting Along, without any pain during the process, he could naturally accept it.
However, enduring pain, gritting his teeth, exerting all his strength to resist the pain, just to make the spirit grow and purify, was evidently contrary to Coasting Along.
It didn’t fit his Coasting Along Attribute at all; even if his spirit could grow, he had to refuse, absolutely not showing too much effort or aggression at such a time.
He believed that his collapse allowed others to relax.
At least the person who fell five minutes after him would secretly breathe a sigh of relief seeing him fall, without worrying about being the first to fall.
Of course, if he had stayed strong, the other might have held on for a few more minutes under pressure, enduring more pain.
This kind of rat race wasn’t fair.
It also shouldn’t affect others.
As someone whose Life Chart is Coasting Along, at critical moments, one must coast, absolutely not coveting petty gains at the expense of self or health.
So this collapse was natural for Ling Feng, without any psychological burden.
[You rejected the spiritual baptism, avoiding physical pain, not engaging in the rat race, executing Coasting Along to the end, gaining the All-weather Spiritual Baptism Ability.]
Suddenly, a line of text appeared in front of Ling Feng.
"Ability feedback?"
"Oh my goodness, is this even possible."
Ling Feng was ecstatic.
He thought rejecting the spiritual baptism would only earn him Coasting Along Value, unexpectedly receiving the All-weather Spiritual Baptism Ability directly, wouldn’t his spiritual power growth rate soar?
