"Could it be something like the Water of Life?"
He recalled the astonishing price and effects of the water of life.
Judging from its appearance and energy fluctuations, the potion in his hand is probably even more potent than the Water of Life. It can not only heal injuries but also replenish physical strength and mental energy.
"The civilization behind these ruins had a technological level far surpassing that of Earth."
Luo Feng was deeply shocked.
"The medicine I just picked up had such an effect."
After a moment's hesitation, Luo Feng uncorked the test tube, and a fresh, herbal aroma immediately filled the air. Without further hesitation, he tilted his head back and drank the medicine in one gulp.
The cool liquid flowed down his throat, then transformed into a warm current that surged through his limbs and bones. To Luo Feng's surprise, his wounds healed at a visible speed, his fatigue rapidly subsided, and even his depleted mental energy was quickly recovering.
"This effect..."
Luo Feng felt the changes within his body, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
"It's far superior to the Water of Life!"
In just a few breaths, his condition had returned to its peak, and he even felt more energetic than before entering the ruins.
Just as the energy of the emerald green potion flowed throughout his body, restoring him to his peak condition—
Luo Feng's body jolted violently!
A far more powerful force than before surged from the depths of his body, as if some kind of shackle had been broken. The muscles and bones of his entire body were emitting a subtle hum, and every cell was greedily absorbing the essence of the remaining medicine, undergoing a deeper transformation!
"Is this... a breakthrough?"
Luo Feng felt the changes within himself in disbelief.
As for martial arts level, he was originally a high-level war god, but now he has naturally stepped into the peak level of war god!
Physical strength, speed, and neural reaction speed have all improved significantly!
Chapter 97 Second Level
Not only that, but his mental power also became more refined and active, his sea of consciousness seemed to have been expanded, and he was able to control the Sky Shuttle more easily.
This sudden breakthrough surprised and delighted Luo Feng.
He didn't expect that the medicine would have such amazing restorative effects.
"Unfortunately, he didn't break through to surpass the God of War."
Luo Feng clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within his body, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
At this moment, his overall strength is far greater than before he entered the ruins!
He was confident that he would not be in such a sorry state again if he were to face the attack of those ten men in black again.
"Congratulations, candidate. It seems the potion's energy has helped you break through your previous level."
Qingyuan's voice rang out at the right time, her tone seemingly carrying a hint of expected calm.
"Get ready for the second test."
Luo Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, and his eyes sharpened again.
While the improvement in his strength was certainly welcome, he knew very well that this elite assessment would not be easy.
The first challenge forced him to use all his skills and took a long time to pass with great difficulty. The upcoming second challenge will likely be even more difficult.
"bring it on!"
He responded in a deep voice.
In the control room, Lu Ming looked at Luo Feng, whose aura was noticeably stronger in the holographic projection, and a smile appeared on his lips.
"Indeed, you are a person favored by destiny. You can break through with just a little opportunity. Your foundation is very solid, and you have not wasted this life essence."
"Master, the second stage, 'Will Corridor,' is ready. Shall we activate it?"
"Qingyuan asked."
"start up."
Lu Ming nodded.
"Let him see what a real test is. Improving physical strength and energy is just the foundation; willpower is the root of the path to becoming a strong person!"
As Lu Ming finished speaking, the metal room where Luo Feng was located began to change.
The wall on one side slid open silently, revealing a deep, seemingly endless corridor. A faint sense of oppressive power permeated the corridor, causing one's mind to involuntarily tense up.
Luo Feng stared at the deep corridor ahead, the faint oppressive aura emanating from it making him instinctively wary.
"The second test involves traversing this 300-meter-long passage ahead."
Qingyuan's voice echoed in the room!
"Successfully reaching the other end means passing the elite assessment."
"Three hundred meters?"
Luo Feng was slightly taken aback.
With his current strength, a distance of 300 meters, under his full power, wouldn't even take a second!
"That's it? Just run over there?"
A strong sense of doubt instantly arose in his mind.
"Impossible! If the first stage of the elite assessment is this difficult, the second stage cannot possibly be just a simple passageway!"
His gaze returned to the seemingly peaceful corridor, his eyes sharp as knives.
"This passage is strange!"
Out of caution, Luo Feng did not rush in.
With a thought, an invisible spiritual force, like a tentacle, cautiously reached forward, attempting to scan the situation inside the passage.
However, just as his mental power touched the entrance to the passage—
"Buzz!"
An invisible force suddenly descended!
Luo Feng felt as if the spiritual energy he had sent out had vanished into thin air, instantly swallowed up and annihilated, completely losing contact with him! Not even a trace of feedback came back!
"what?!"
Luo Feng's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously took half a step back.
His mental power vanished the instant he entered the passage? Undetectable, unperceptible!
"It's really not that simple!"
Luo Feng's eyes were extremely solemn.
"This passage can devour mental energy; it must contain unknown dangers. Three hundred meters... it doesn't seem so easy to traverse."
He took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, gripped his sword, and assumed a fighting stance.
Since there's no way to take shortcuts, we'll just have to force our way through!
"No matter what's inside, I have to get through!"
A determined light flashed in Luo Feng's eyes. Without further hesitation, he stepped into the deep and eerie passage!
As soon as Luo Feng stepped into the passage, he immediately felt an invisible pressure descend upon him!
Wait...that's not right!
The pressure wasn't acting on his body; his muscles and bones didn't feel any extra burden. But his consciousness felt as if it were shackled with a heavy chain, and his soul felt like it was carrying a boulder on its back!
"So that's how it is! This is the second test? An attack on willpower!"
Luo Feng instantly understood. This deep passage wasn't a physical obstacle at all, but a trial path to temper one's will!
"it is good!"
Instead of fear, his eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit.
In martial arts training, willpower is a crucial element! Without hesitation, he took another step forward.
really!
With this step, the pressure on his soul increased significantly! It was as if a greater weight was pressing down on his spirit.
"However, I can still tolerate this level!"
Luo Feng gritted his teeth, his eyes sharp as knives. He adjusted his breathing and began to move forward step by step.
One meter, two meters, three meters...
Ten meters, thirty meters, fifty meters...
With each step forward, the invisible pressure of that will intensified. At first, it felt like carrying a hundred pounds, but gradually it grew to a thousand pounds, then ten thousand pounds!
Fine beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and his temples bulged slightly, but his steps remained steady.
One hundred meters!
The moment Luo Feng stepped onto the 100-meter mark, the pressure of his will suddenly surged!
"Ugh!"
He groaned, his back involuntarily bending down, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on his soul, threatening to crush him completely!
This was not physical fatigue, but a heavy burden from the depths of his mind, making it almost impossible for him to stand, and even his thinking became somewhat sluggish.
Sweat streamed down his face, dripping onto the cold floor of the passage. Luo Feng's arms trembled slightly as he supported himself on his knees, panting heavily.
"I can't...I can't fall here!"
Images of his parents and younger brother flashed through his mind, along with the hardships he had endured along the way.
A strong belief sustained him, and he stubbornly withstood the terrifying pressure of his will, managing to lift his feet again with great difficulty.
110 meters... 120 meters... 130 meters...
Every step was like wading through a swamp, and every step required a tremendous amount of mental effort to fight against the all-pervasive pressure.
