Chapter 105: Spirit Gathering Formation

"Young Master, did you know the entire estate is aware that you’re training? At first, we even thought we were under attack!" Mei Ling said.

Lin Feng, hearing her words, was suddenly shocked. He didn’t think he had been hitting the trees that hard—until he turned his head and saw two trees already fallen over, with a third one barely standing.

Okay... maybe it was a bit strong...

He felt a pang of guilt and was about to explain himself and apologize when Mei Ling, noticing the expression on his face, spoke up first.

"Young Master, you don’t need to worry. I already explained everything to Big Sis Yu Miao. In fact, I even came here to give you a little help with your training!" Mei Ling smiled, pointing at the ground beneath him.

Feeling confused, Lin Feng looked down and noticed small points of light drifting through the ground like tiny fireflies. He suddenly realized the concentration of spiritual energy in the area had doubled, and his body felt much lighter.

What’s going on?

Feng suddenly felt confused—this was clearly something he had never encountered before.

"This is a spirit-gathering formation. To put it simply, it gathers spiritual energy from the surrounding area and concentrates it in a specific spot," Mei Ling explained, waiting patiently for Lin Feng to digest the information.

Lin Feng was shocked—it was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing, and his curiosity was immediately piqued.

"It’s actually pretty expensive to maintain the formation at full power, so we usually let it run passively. But even in its passive state, it’s still far better than areas without a spirit-gathering formation," Mei Ling continued, smiling as she tried her best to enlighten him.

A spirit-gathering formation? So, it’s like the spirit spring I bathed in before—but even more powerful.

Feng was amazed as the tiny fireflies floated around him, accelerating the recovery of his spiritual energy. In fact, it felt as though all the energy he had expended during his training was nearly fully restored.

He turned back to Mei Ling and bowed his head slightly before saying, "Thank you, Mei Ling. Now I can continue my training!"

Mei Ling, seeing Lin Feng act so seriously, suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. She quickly stood up and waved her hands.

"No! Young Master Lin Feng, you don’t have to worry—this is also my way of thanking you for treating me well!"

Hearing her explanation, Lin Feng felt a sense of relief but still replied, "I owe you a favor, Mei Ling. If you ever need my help, don’t be afraid to ask!"

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Mei Ling suddenly smiled sweetly, her eyes sparkling with warmth as she tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. With a graceful motion, she sat back down beside him, the soft rustling of her robes blending with the faint hum of spiritual energy in the air.

"Actually, my only request is that you allow me to accompany you while you train!" she said, her voice light but filled with sincerity.

Lin Feng blinked in surprise, not expecting such a simple request. He glanced at her, noticing the eagerness in her expression—there was no trace of ulterior motive, just genuine curiosity and a hint of excitement.

He thought about it for a few seconds, the corners of his lips curling into a smile. "Alright, it’s the least I can do. You can stay for as long as you want—although I’m not sure what you’ll find interesting. It’s just me punching and kicking trees!"

His casual tone made Mei Ling giggle softly, covering her mouth with her hand. "Young Master, watching you train isn’t boring at all. Besides," she tilted her head playfully, "someone has to make sure you don’t end up knocking down the entire courtyard."

Returning to the present, Lin Feng had just finished drinking his water, his gaze fixed on the countless firefly-like lights drifting through the air. Mei Ling, who had been quietly watching him, finally spoke up.

"Young Master, what technique are you training in?" she asked—the question she had been waiting to ask since she first started accompanying him.

"I don’t really have a name for it yet," Lin Feng admitted, his tone thoughtful. "But I’ve been trying to incorporate a unique aura into my attacks. I can manage it now, but I feel like I’m missing something—something important that could make it much more powerful." He clenched his fist tightly, clearly troubled by the thought.

"Well, I’m not very good at cultivating," Mei Ling said with a gentle smile, "but from everything I’ve heard from Big Sis Yu Miao, when you get stuck while learning something new, it’s always good to go back to the basics for a while!"

Hearing Mei Ling’s advice, Lin Feng suddenly paused, his mind slowing down as he carefully considered her words.

The basics, eh? I guess that’s a good idea. When I was fighting those bandits, I instinctively decided to infuse my aura of dominance into my physical attacks. Once I found a good rhythm, I realized it destabilized my enemies’ mental acuity—giving me a clear advantage in combat.

But now that I think about it, over the course of the fight, I eventually stopped analyzing everything. My aura of dominance just naturally seeped into my attacks.

Does this mean... I should just let go and attack based on instinct?

A sudden epiphany struck Feng. It was as if his mind had entered overdrive, countless thoughts colliding and intertwining in rapid succession.

If I were the Blackwood Ruler, I wouldn’t waste time overthinking my attacks—I would simply strike!

As the apex predator of the Blackwood Forest, the Blackwood Ruler doesn’t need to question himself. He isn’t bound by anyone or anything.

So, if I compare myself to him...

I mustn’t let external thoughts slow me down. I should impose my will on the enemy—and use my aura of dominance to crush them!

BOOM!

Suddenly, a powerful spiritual energy vortex erupted around Lin Feng, pulling the surrounding energy toward his body with overwhelming force. The golden fireflies, like moths drawn to a flame, swarmed toward him in a dazzling cascade.
