I Can Extract Abilities – Chapter 247

Chapter 247: Provocation

Seeing Li Yansheng’s prideful yet unspoken demeanor,

Li Feng felt somewhat speechless. This old man, it seemed, had been quite stifled back at the Luo Residence and was now venting his frustration in this manner.

He was truly being petty.

However, he was also quite shocked internally. He hadn’t expected the Li family’s influence to be so strong, even extending into the Great Heng Ocean. They were unfathomably deep!

Luo Yunyang’s expression remained calm, as if he hadn’t seen anything. He continued, “Currently, besides the government, there are probably not many forces that have the capability to seize benefits in the Great Heng Ocean.”

At the same time.

The airship was about to leave the Great Heng Ocean.

A trace of indignation appeared on Li Yansheng’s face. He was prepared to reveal some of the Li family’s great achievements to intimidate Luo Yunyang.

But at this moment, with a rumble, the Silver Sword shook.

“What happened?” Li Feng looked outside again and found that it had unknowingly darkened.

It was a dense flock of seabirds, swarming and crashing into the Silver Sword, causing the tremor.

“It’s a seabird attack, but these ordinary seabirds are trying to shake the Silver Sword. They’re simply seeking death.” Li Yansheng’s gaze pierced through the glass, also seeing the seabirds outside, he sneered.

His words had barely left his mouth.

A terrifying energy shot out from the cannons beneath the airship’s wings on both sides. It was a swath of crimson light, like a radiant cloud, exploding in the midst of the seabirds, extremely dazzling.

The Silver Sword directly tore open a clear path through the center. Many seabirds were instantly vaporized, and a small portion caught in the crimson light suffered terribly.

Their bodies were scorched, falling directly into the Great Heng Ocean.

The remaining seabirds were intimidated and dared not continue to obstruct, flying low instead.

Li Feng and Luo Yunyang were both startled, thinking, “This Silver Sword is indeed terrifying!”

But just then.

An even more horrifying scene appeared.

A giant whale spanning three kilometers leaped out of the sea, creating waves hundreds of meters high. Countless droplets of water scattered, like a torrential downpour.

Its body left the sea surface by almost ten kilometers. It opened its b*oody maw, like a falling planet, swallowing the low-flying seabirds in one gulp. Not even blood was left behind. Only a few seabirds managed to escape, fleeing desperately into the distance.

In mid-air, the giant whale coldly glanced at the Silver Sword but made no move.

With the momentum, it plunged back into the sea, once again creating waves hundreds of meters high, like towering walls.

Inside the Silver Sword.

The three of them froze, their hair standing on end, their backs drenched in cold sweat. Only after the giant whale disappeared did this condition slowly improve.

“The strength of this giant whale has probably reached the Destruction level, hasn’t it?” Li Yansheng gasped.

Luo Yunyang shook his head, his eyes still filled with lingering fear. “Probably more than that. This giant whale’s strength has already surpassed the average Destruction level, perhaps even…”

He had spent a long time with Luo Heshen, and the latter’s aura was far less powerful than this giant whale’s. However, he didn’t continue.

Above the Destruction level was still an unknown realm.

Only Li Feng’s gaze was deep, his thoughts unknown.

He clearly felt that this giant whale should be a Source level expert because he had just felt his own source trembling.

The aura of death lingered in his heart, almost making him summon the Mechanical Overlord.

“Let’s go quickly. Don’t stay in this Great Heng Ocean any longer,” Luo Yunyang urged.

In fact, even without him saying it, the Silver Sword was also accelerating, quickly exiting the range of the Great Heng Ocean.

Li Yansheng had also lost interest in talking. He left the hall and entered a room, informing the family about these events.

He had previously wanted to show off their family’s strength to Luo Yunyang.

But now, he had no such thoughts. The Great Heng Ocean actually had such a terrifying existence. Their Li family had to stop deploying forces in the Great Heng Ocean.

Until the situation was clear, they wouldn’t make any major moves.

After this incident.

The Silver Sword fell silent. After reporting the matter, Li Yansheng returned to the hall, but none of the three had any desire to converse.

“It seems that the development of certain creatures has already surpassed that of humans.” Li Feng sighed inwardly. Great Xia Nation had yet to produce a Source level expert.

Unexpectedly, in the vast ocean, such a creature had already appeared. He didn’t know if it was a dimensional creature or a native creature of Sky Blue Star.

With the emergence of dungeons, not only had humans embarked on a new path, but other creatures besides humans had also embarked on the path of cultivation.

“But that giant whale should be a native creature of Sky Blue Star,” Li Feng thought to himself.

If it were truly a dimensional creature, it probably wouldn’t be so polite. It would have already launched a major attack on Sky Blue Star.

…

…

Soon, after several more hours of flight, the Silver Sword finally arrived at the Li family and was slowly landing in a garden.

With a thud.

◈◈◈

The airship stopped on the ground. Li Yansheng smiled and said, “We’ve arrived at the Li family, everyone. Let’s disembark!”

This time, his tone wasn’t as gentle, and his form of address had also changed, lacking the initial respect.

Luo Yunyang gave him a faint smile, saying nothing.

Li Feng glanced at his Uncle, wondering what trump card he had to remain so confident even deep within the Li family’s base.

However, he wasn’t worried, as he could summon the Mechanical Overlord once.

Even if the Li family’s two Destruction level experts attacked together, they couldn’t withstand ‘Gaibo,’ as the difference in levels was too great.

Below the level of gods, all are ants. Even a wounded god cannot be shaken by a mortal body.

The three of them, each with their own thoughts, walked towards the airship’s door.

“Uncle, you’re finally back.” Just as they stepped off the airship, a young man called out.

He strode towards them, clad in armor, with a handsome face and a glint of gold in his eyes. He carried an imposing aura.

“Zhaoming, why are you here?” Li Yansheng, seeing the newcomer, showed a hint of joy and asked.

This person who called out to him was his brother’s son, with whom he had a close relationship. Most importantly, Li Zhaoming was a prodigy of their lineage, with boundless potential.

He had high hopes for Li Zhaoming.

Li Zhaoming chuckled, then said, “Didn’t I hear that Uncle went to Daqian City to invite Li Feng over? I wanted to see what kind of youth could defeat Li Zhaowu. I came here today specifically to have a look.”

As he spoke, he sized up Luo Yunyang and Li Feng. When he looked at Li Feng, he said, “You must be Li Feng, right? I admire you greatly for being able to defeat Li Zhaowu. I just don’t know if you’re as strong as the rumors say. I want to spar with you. I hope you won’t back down.”

His last few words were quite impolite.

In the Li family, Li Zhaowu had always been one step ahead of him. If he could defeat Li Feng, it would prove that he was superior to Li Zhaowu in both strength and potential.

This would give him an advantage when competing for family resources.

Of course, this was under the premise that he could defeat Li Feng.

But even if he lost, he wouldn’t lose out, as Li Zhaowu had also been defeated by him. Therefore, regardless of the outcome of this challenge, he would come out ahead.

Li Feng glanced at him indifferently, ignoring him, and said to Li Yansheng, “Is this your way of treating guests?”

Luo Yunyang’s expression was also displeased. He hadn’t expected to be given a show of dominance as soon as he arrived at the Li family.

“That’s not true. This time, we need your help to suppress the dungeon. If you don’t have sufficient strength, you might be in danger. It’s better to test your strength beforehand so that our Li family can make an assessment and not be caught off guard.”

Li Yansheng spoke calmly, laying out the rationale.

He naturally understood what his nephew was thinking. He was happy to facilitate such a challenge, as it would greatly benefit their lineage.

At the same time, he wanted to put Luo Yunyang and Li Feng in their place, venting the frustration he had felt at the Luo Residence.

…

…

At this moment.

In the distance, five or six other youths were also watching, but they didn’t approach. They seemed to be hesitating.

“Brother Zhaoyang, are we really just going to watch Zhaoming take all the credit? Why don’t we also challenge Li Feng?” One of the youths spoke, his tone somewhat unwilling.

Hearing this, the surrounding youths were all tempted, looking at the youth in the center.

Li Zhaoyang’s expression was calm. “The eldest said not to provoke Li Feng easily. He’s petty. Going up rashly like this might lead to a big loss.”

They were all from Li Zhaowu’s lineage. Because of Li Zhaowu, he was very restrained and didn’t immediately go looking for trouble.

“At worst, it’s just a defeat. If we win, it’ll be a huge gain,” someone muttered.

Li Zhaoyang’s gaze turned cold. “If you want to go, go. Don’t grumble here.”

The youth who spoke chuckled awkwardly and stopped talking.

Although they also had the surname Li, there was a hierarchy. They were all from collateral branches, naturally deferring to Li Zhaowu’s lineage.

Hearing that Li Zhaoyang was really angry, the others didn’t dare to speak, continuing to watch the scene.

…

…

Li Feng’s expression remained unchanged. “You make it sound reasonable, but you should know that it was your Li family who invited me here. I didn’t insist on coming. If you don’t welcome me, then I’ll just leave.”

“That’s right. If your Li family doesn’t welcome us, then fine. If you think Li Feng isn’t capable, then we’ll leave,” Luo Yunyang also said impolitely.

Hearing this, Li Yansheng frowned. He had gone to great lengths to invite Li Feng. If he really left, he would likely be severely punished.

But he didn’t speak. Li Zhaoming stepped closer to Li Feng again, exuding a powerful aura, looking down at him. “It seems the rumors are wrong. I thought you were a worthy opponent, having defeated Li Zhaowu. I didn’t expect that I overestimated you, that you wouldn’t even dare to accept a challenge. In that case, I won’t make things difficult for you. Just admit defeat.”

His eyes were filled with contempt, as if he looked down on Li Feng.
