Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along

They might disregard the Alliance regulations, and even at the risk of opposing the Heavenly Dao Laws, they would destroy the Black Water Star Realm until they regain control over it.

Ling Feng thought of certain past conflicts between massive forces, where sometimes a shift in the situation was triggered simply because one force suddenly decided to join a powerful group, posing a significant security threat to another force, and consequently escalating the situation into a conflict.

Clearly.

Both the Yang Country Star Realm and Shen Country Star Realm are very large organizations.

In their presence, Black Water Star Realm is just a minor player, and even one misstep could incur much unnecessary trouble, or even bring disaster upon itself.

This made Ling Feng even more acutely aware of the importance of strengthening himself and the urgency to seek the protection of stronger forces.

Clearly, the Ancient Moon Sect is an organization even more powerful than both the Yang Country Star Realm and Shen Country Star Realm.

Joining the Ancient Moon Sect wouldn’t bring the reprisals from the Shen Country Star Realm like joining the Yang Country Star Realm would; on the contrary, it would make the Shen Family more apprehensive and less likely to act recklessly.

Therefore, cultivating in the Ancient Moon Sect became something Ling Feng was determined to achieve at all costs.

"Although the Yang Family cannot recruit you, we hope to mutually support each other, so the opportunity to enter the Ancient Moon Sect, I am willing to give to you. Of course, this so-called opportunity only represents a chance to participate in the Ancient Moon Sect’s assessment, and does not mean you will be able to cultivate there just because you have this chance."

Yang Nan assured firmly.

"What does the elder need me to do?"

Ling Feng respectfully asked.

Although Yang Nan’s actions were somewhat unexpected, Ling Feng understood that things couldn’t be this simple. Yang Nan couldn’t possibly give him a real opportunity to cultivate in the Ancient Moon Sect just to upset the Shen Family.

"You need to remember that you owe the Yang Family a favor that you must repay in the future!"

Yang Nan declared solemnly.

"Alright, as long as it is something I can achieve in the future and is within reason, I will definitely repay it double."

Ling Feng said seriously.

He didn’t refuse, nor did he put all his hopes on the Alliance. Compared to the Alliance, Ling Feng at this moment trusted Yang Nan more.

At least Yang Nan did not want the Black Water Star Realm to join the Yang Country Star Realm and he informed him of the dangers.

Just based on this, Ling Feng felt he could trust Yang Nan. Moreover, if Yang Nan merely wanted him to owe a favor to be repaid later, and this couldn’t be trusted, then what else could be trusted.

Of course, Ling Feng also knew that everything depended on getting the opportunity.

"Hahaha."

Yang Nan laughed heartily again and continued, "To get the opportunity, you also need to first go through a series of tests. As to when you will undergo the tests, just wait for the Alliance to summon you!"

"Ah?"

Ling Feng was a bit puzzled.

"Hahaha, Qin Tiancang and his ilk bringing Zhuo Zi and Tu Hongxuan to seek you out, how could I not know. That cunning fellow. Unable to get any satisfactory benefits from me, he pushed you to the Alliance, truly a sly guy. But he seems to have forgotten, even if you pass the assessment, the opportunity to enter the Ancient Moon Sect should still be obtained from my Yang Family’s hands. The Alliance’s own opportunities have already been allocated, so there isn’t another opportunity for you."

Yang Nan said, half laughing and half crying.

"Then this..."

Ling Feng was caught off guard.

"A bargain cannot be monopolized by the Alliance; remember, if you successfully pass the assessment and obtain the opportunity, you owe our Yang Family a favor and must repay it in the future."

Yang Nan laughed heartily.

The light signal source quickly vanished.

"Elder Yang..."

"It seems like I have been manipulated by both the Alliance and Elder Yang!"

"Never mind, as long as I can cultivate in the Ancient Moon Sect, owing the Yang Family a favor is worth it."

Ling Feng felt both amused and helpless.

Yang Nan indeed lived up to being a cunning old fox who had lived for a thousand years, as sly as the Alliance.

"I just don’t know what kind of assessment the Alliance will devise for me. Will it still be conducted in the Demon Realm System, or will it have a more advanced system network?"

Ling Feng was filled with curiosity.

Days passed one by one.

Under the assistance of the All-weather Soul Power Enhancement Ability and the All-weather Law Enhancement Ability, Ling Feng’s soul power and related laws values consistently increased, albeit at a relatively slow pace.

The Coasting Along Value acquired daily by Ling Feng was only obtained through a day of indulgence in eating, drinking, and entertainment.

Because there was no one to guide him in cultivation, and no one who could guide him, as the Black Water Star Domain Dominator, the Coasting Along Value he could obtain was pitifully low, approximately ten million points a day.

These sources of Coasting Along Values mostly came from his time spent on entertainment rather than on contemplating the comprehension of Black Water Star Realm Law or strengthening the scarlet symbols and such things.

Considering the current speed.

It would take 2 billion Coasting Along Value points to improve a single Black Water Star Realm Law value; Ling Feng would need to coast along for twenty days to improve one value.

The All-weather Law Enhancement Ability, however, allowed the Black Water Star Realm Law value after the decimal point to increase by one digit every five days, meaning it went up by 0.1 every five days.

Relying solely on this skill to improve the Black Water Star Realm Law value, Ling Feng calculated that achieving 100% Perfection would take nearly 2,500 days.

That equates to nearly seven years.

But if combined with the daily 10 million Coasting Along Value boost.

It would still require around two years.

Clearly, it is unlikely that the Alliance’s assessment would give Ling Feng two years to wait.

Since the Ancient Moon Sect disciple selection in the Intermediate Star Realm Alliance is still more than eight months away, converting to Basic Star Realm’s time, it equates to over 80 months, approximately seven years.
