Chapter 40: Power Enhancement

In the far - off and perilous northern region, after experiencing countless hardships, including attacks from fierce demonic beasts, the ravages of harsh weather, and the tests of mysterious formation traps, Lin Yu led his team back to the coalition camp in haste, traveling day and night, with the precious gains from the cultivation holy land.

The moment his figure appeared at the camp entrance, it was like a shining star streaking across the night sky, instantly causing a small sensation. The coalition members, who had been busy with their respective tasks - some were cleaning weapons, some were organizing supplies, and some were practicing martial arts - stopped what they were doing at once. They rushed over from all directions of the camp, their eyes filled with anticipation and curiosity about the unknown. They gathered tightly around Lin Yu, forming a dense circle of people. Everyone stretched their necks, their eyes firmly fixed on Lin Yu, as if waiting for a grand unveiling ceremony.

Lin Yu stood tall and straight in the center of the camp, his posture like a sturdy pine tree, standing proudly in the strong wind. Although his face showed a bit of fatigue from the long journey, his eyes revealed an uncontrollable excitement and pride. The light in his eyes was like the most dazzling star in the night sky, shining brightly. He cleared his throat slightly, and his voice, loud and clear, echoed through the camp like a tolling bell, instantly drawing everyone's attention. Then, he began to share with everyone, in vivid and detailed language, everything he had seen, heard, obtained, and gained in the cultivation holy land without reservation.

He described the spiritual energy in the holy land, which was so dense that it was almost tangible, like a vast sea of spiritual mist. Being in it made people feel comfortable both physically and mentally, and could greatly increase the cultivation speed. He talked about the precious cultivation resources in the holy land, such as rare spirit crystals that sparkled with colorful lights, each containing majestic spiritual power, as if it were the concentrated power of the stars. He also mentioned the fairy herbs and spiritual plants growing in mysterious places, which emitted a unique and alluring fragrance. Just taking a sniff of it could make people feel refreshed. These were excellent materials for refining high - level pills. When he mentioned the mysterious and powerful "The Divine Art of the Great Void", the faces of the coalition members immediately lit up, and their eyes sparkled with a blazing light. They were like hungry people seeing a sumptuous feast, excited and thrilled by this unexpected surprise. Exclamations and cheers came from the crowd from time to time, and the sounds intertwined, creating a warm and excited atmosphere that lingered over the camp for a long time.

For a while, the entire camp was filled with a warm and positive atmosphere. The coalition members couldn't wait to start cultivating "The Divine Art of the Great Void". They were like treasure - hunters, looking everywhere for quiet corners with abundant spiritual energy. Some went into the quiet forest behind the camp, where the trees provided shade and the spiritual energy was relatively rich. Some chose the corners inside the tents, sat cross - legged, closed their eyes, and concentrated. They carefully guided the spiritual energy in their bodies to circulate according to the formulas and diagrams in the cultivation method. Every movement was precise, as if they were master carvers sculpting the most precious artworks. Every breath was focused and deep, as if they were having an intimate conversation with the surrounding spiritual energy.

With the dual assistance of the already - rich spiritual energy in the camp and the precious resources Lin Yu brought back, the strength of the coalition members increased rapidly like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Some members, whose cultivation had been stagnant, began to break through the bottleneck under the guidance of the cultivation method and the nourishment of the resources. The spiritual energy in their bodies, as if released from a seal, became more vigorous and surging, and the surging spiritual energy fluctuations even made the surrounding air vibrate. Some members became more proficient in controlling the spiritual energy. When they cast spells and martial arts, the power increased significantly. The previously ordinary - looking moves could now exert astonishing power, as if they had been given new life. For example, a member who was good at swordsmanship. In the past, although his swordsmanship was sharp, it always seemed to lack something. But now, after cultivating "The Divine Art of the Great Void", his sword moves became more flexible and changeable. Every swing of the sword could attract the surrounding spiritual energy, making the sword qi criss - cross and the power double, which was amazing.

Lin Yu didn't slack off either. He said goodbye to everyone in a hurry, then plunged into his tent and got busy. He carefully took out the rare materials obtained in the holy land. Placed on the table in the tent, these materials emitted a mysterious and alluring light. Each one seemed to contain endless possibilities, making people fall in love with them at first sight. Relying on his exquisite skills accumulated over the years in magic - treasure forging and his profound understanding of the structure of magic treasures, he started to further upgrade his magic treasures and equipment.

In the tent, the stove fire burned brightly. The blazing flames licked the furnace wall, reflecting his focused and resolute face. His hands skillfully wielded the tools, delicately carving and strengthening the magic treasures. Every strike made a clear and pleasant sound, like a beautiful piece of music. Every time he inscribed runes, he poured his painstaking efforts and expectations into it. The runes flickered with a faint light, like elves given life. After careful forging, his magic treasures and equipment took on a new look, exuding a more powerful aura. They were like awakened sleeping behemoths. Just being there, they gave people a strong sense of oppression, waiting to show their true power on the battlefield and become Lin Yu's powerful assistants in defeating the enemy.

At the same time, Lin Yu spent days and nights delving into the two peerless cultivation methods, "The Chaos Holy Canon" and "The Divine Art of the Great Void". He was immersed in the profound words and mysterious diagrams of the cultivation methods, like a devout scholar exploring the mysteries of the universe. He repeatedly pondered the meaning of every word, constantly thought about the mysteries of every diagram, and didn't miss any detail. Every word seemed to him like a code containing endless wisdom, and every diagram was like a map leading to a higher realm. He sat in the tent for a whole day, forgetting the passage of time and the noise outside. Only these two cultivation methods were constantly swirling in his mind.

Finally, after countless days and nights of unremitting efforts, he successfully integrated the essences of the two, creating a unique cultivation and combat system. This system combined the advantages of the two cultivation methods. It had the majestic and powerful force of "The Chaos Holy Canon", which could unleash astonishing destructive power in battle, as if the wrath of the gods had descended to the mortal world. It also had the exquisite control method of "The Divine Art of the Great Void", enabling people to control spiritual energy more flexibly and exert the maximum power, like an elegant dancer dancing gracefully on the battlefield. With this unique system, Lin Yu's strength reached a new level. It was as if a mysterious halo enveloped him. Every gesture and movement of his exuded a powerful aura, making people in awe. Naturally, he became the core and leader of the coalition forces worthy of the name. The coalition members trusted and respected him even more and were willing to follow in his footsteps and fight for justice.

With the significant improvement of the overall strength of the coalition forces, the morale in the camp reached its peak. The eyes of the coalition members were filled with confidence and determination. They were no longer afraid or worried about the evil forces but were full of confidence in defeating them, as if they could already see the dawn of victory ahead. They trained more assiduously on the training ground, exchanged skills with each other, and constantly improved the teamwork. Everyone was fully preparing for the upcoming decisive battle. Their figures shuttled on the training ground, and the shouts of killing and the clashing sounds of weapons intertwined, forming a passionate and exciting scene.

Lin Yu knew well that the moment of the decisive battle was approaching. Time was pressing, and there was no room for any slack. So, he began to work day and night to formulate the final battle plan. He sat alone in the tent, with various maps and intelligence materials piled up on the table in front of him. His eyes were focused and deep, as if he could see every move of the enemy through these materials. He carefully analyzed the strength comparison between the two sides, from the number of troops to the number of high - level experts, from the quality of magic treasures to the strength of cultivation methods. He studied every aspect in depth. He analyzed the terrain features, considering which places were suitable for ambushes, which were convenient for attacks, and which were easy to defend but difficult to attack. He explored the action patterns of the evil forces, trying to find their flaws and weaknesses. He didn't miss any detail, like a rigorous scientist conducting a precise experiment. He carefully considered every possible situation and formulated corresponding countermeasures. Whether it was the enemy's frontal assault, flanking sneak attack, or encirclement from behind, he had comprehensive response methods. His only goal was to completely destroy the evil forces, thoroughly eliminate the cancer in this cultivation world, and bring long - term peace and tranquility to this land devastated by war. He wanted to use his wisdom and strength to write a glorious chapter for the coalition forces, let the light of justice shine on this land forever, enable the common people to live a peaceful and happy life again, and restore the former prosperity and harmony of this cultivation world.
