Chapter 175 - Breaking the Limit Again
Why could he break the Astral Power limit when other martial artists could not? Lin Feng had always had a hypothesis in the past, but it had not been verified for a long time.
He felt that the reason he could break the Astral Power limit was that his physique far exceeded that of other martial artists. The stronger his physique, the more he could break the Astral Power limit.
In fact, there might even be no limit to Astral Power at all. As long as his physique continued to strengthen, it could accommodate more Astral Power.
However, this bold hypothesis had never been verified. But now, with the completion of the metamorphosis of Lin Feng’s body in advance and the fusion of the genes of the Pangolin Beast demon, his physique had skyrocketed in a short period of time.
At this moment, his Astral Power limit loosened again. Was this still not proof enough? At least, this directly confirmed that there was some basis to Lin Feng’s bold hypothesis from before. The stronger a martial artist’s physique was, the more they could break the Astral Power limit.
Originally, Lin Feng had 5,430 strands of Astral Power in his body. This was Lin Feng’s previous limit. But now, as Lin Feng fused the genes of the Pangolin Beast demon, his physique improved by leaps and bounds again, and his limit somehow loosened slightly.
With a thought, Lin Feng immediately circulated the Astra Devourer Technique.
Buzz.
A large amount of star power poured down, and the Astral Power actually condensed in Lin Feng’s body again. Almost without any resistance, a new trace of Astral Power was condensed.
There were 5,431 strands of Astral Power. Don’t underestimate this one trace of Astral Power. This meant that Lin Feng’s hypothesis was completely correct. It meant that Lin Feng had once again broken the Astral Power limit!

But this was not the end. It was just the beginning
Lin Feng’s Astra Devourer Technique was extremely domineering. The stronger his body was, the more Astral Power he could absorb. In the past, Lin Feng’s physique could only withstand condensing 120 strands of Astral Power every day, and he would also suffer damage. If he relaxed a little, he could also condense about 100 strands of Astral Power every day.
Now, Lin Feng felt that his body was like a balloon. Although his physique had almost doubled, that was not just an additive effect.
A large amount of star power passed through the layers of obstructions and arrived to Lin Feng underground. Lin Feng was like a bottomless pit, devouring a large amount of star power in a frenzy.
One strand, ten strands, fifty strands, a hundred strands…
In the blink of an eye, Lin Feng had condensed 100 strands of Astral Power. Only two hours had passed. Lin Feng had only used two hours to condense 100 strands of Astral Power. This was unbelievable. It was comparable to the amount of Astral Power Lin Feng could condense in a day before the improvement to his physique.
Even though Lin Feng’s body seemed to have reached its limit, and the star power was even destroying his body, Lin Feng did not have much time. Every additional trace of Astral Power he could add now meant an improved chance of survival.
Hence, Lin Feng was doing his best to condense Astral Power now. At this rate, it would not be a problem for Lin Feng to condense 1,200 strands of Astral Power in a day. Although he would suffer some damage, his undying characteristic would allow him to recover. If he did not want to damage his body, he could slow down a little, and would have no problem condensing 1,000 strands of Astral Power a day.
However, what Lin Feng lacked the most now was time. He had promised Mo Lei that he would return to the North Mountain Base in three days. Hence, he had to increase his strength as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. Lin Feng had already condensed 2,400 strands of Astral Power in his body. In addition to the previous 5,430 strands, he had about 7,830 strands of Astral Power.
Lin Feng spent two days condensing Astral Power in a frenzy. Now, his speed gradually slowed down. After more than three hours, when the Astral Power in Lin Feng’s body had just reached 8,000 strands, the condensation of Astral Power almost stopped.
Finally, Lin Feng stopped circulating the Astra Devourer Technique, and the Astral Power in his body reached 8,006 strands.
This was Lin Feng’s new limit. 8,006 strands of Astral Power was almost comparable to a peak Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist. After all, even a peak Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist only had 9,999 strands of Astral Power.
With such a huge amount of Astral Power, if he used the Void Bubble to condense the maximized Astral Bubble that Lin Feng could currently control, he could also condense two Astral Bubbles.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng could only condense an Astral Bubble of 4,000 strands of Astral Power. If his mental power were a little stronger, how formidable would an Astral Bubble condensed from 8,000 strands of Astral Power be? It might even be able to severely injure or even kill that Pangolin Beast demon general.
Of course, this was only Lin Feng’s guess. Lin Feng was not sure if the Astral Bubble condensed from 4,000 strands of Astral Power was effective against that Pangolin Beast demon general.
However, no matter what, there were only 10 hours left until the three days that Lin Feng and Mo Lei had agreed on were up. Whether he chose to leave or to continue searching for the matrix of the genetic fusion device, Lin Feng had to face that giant Pangolin Beast again.
“I hope the Void Bubble works.”
Lin Feng took a deep breath, then stood up and left the cave through the “direction” of the genetic fusion device.
Although there were countless forks underground, with the direction indicated by the genetic fusion device, Lin Feng did not have to be afraid of getting lost at all. He would definitely be able to find the huge cave from before.
As expected, two hours later, Lin Feng successively saw signs of active Pangolin Beasts in the tunnel.
Lin Feng kept weaving through the forks and avoiding the Pangolin Beasts. He did not want to waste time on these Pangolin Beasts. With the direction indicated by the genetic fusion device, he was even more familiar with the passages here than those Pangolin Beasts.
However, the closer he got to the cave, the more Pangolin Beasts there were. In the end, Lin Feng had no choice but to encounter these Pangolin Beasts.
These were just ordinary Pangolin Beasts. Lin Feng had no difficulty dealing with them at all. He did not want to waste time, so he simply wrapped a layer of armor around himself before using his petrification talent.
Boom.
Lin Feng charged forward like a cannonball, ignoring the number of Pangolin Beasts in front of him.
Countless collisions occurred, and there were even a few Pangolin Beast demons among them. However, with Lin Feng’s armor and the innate ability of petrification, his defense was simply too strong. He was even more savage than the Pangolin Beast demons. With a wild charge, all the Pangolin Beasts were either sent flying or blasted apart. It did not take long for Lin Feng to charge into the cave.
The giant Pangolin Beast was still in the cave. The moment Lin Feng broke into the cave, he saw the bloodthirsty gaze of the giant Pangolin Beast.
“Grr…”
The giant Pangolin Beast seemed extremely displeased. It was this human martial artist again. It clearly remembered that this human martial artist was the one who had ruined its plans two days ago.
He was actually here again today. The giant Pangolin Beast could not tolerate this.
Lin Feng took a deep breath. At this moment, he had two choices. He could either fight the giant Pangolin Beast head-on, take the opportunity to leave the cave, and return to the surface.
Or he could pass through the giant Pangolin Beast and enter the metal gate to search for the matrix of the genetic fusion device.
However, whether it was escaping or entering the metal gate, he had to at least deal with this giant Pangolin Beast first.
“Void Bubble!”
Without any hesitation, Lin Feng reached out and waved his hand. A huge bubble appeared in the void, mesmerizing and emitting a dream-like aura.
