I Can Extract Abilities – Chapter 302

Chapter 302: Awakening Quest

Boom!

The ground exploded, and a brilliant glow burst forth, accompanied by a fierce gale that seemed to pierce the sky.

Li Feng pushed the Heavenly Derivation Sword Technique to its limit. A layer of Star Armor covered his body, blocking Utopia’s killing blow.

Crack! Cracks appeared on the Star Armor. His expression was solemn as a dark aura spread rapidly from him, enveloping the area in front of him.

“What the h*ll is this?” A sense of foreboding filled Utopia’s heart. He leaped back, avoiding the spreading darkness.

“Die!” Like a golden-winged Great Peng, Li Feng shone brilliantly. Although the Star Armor was shattered, his radiance was still terrifying. He swung his longsword, carrying the power of darkness, towards Utopia.

Beneath his feet, the dark power centered on him continued to erode the surroundings, even dimming the sky.

“Tiger’s Roar Shakes the Heavens!”

Utopia’s expression changed slightly. He opened his massive maw, revealing metallic teeth, and a scorching flame erupted from his mouth, contending against the darkness.

Boom!

This was a collision of two energies. A terrifying shockwave rippled outwards, shattering the surrounding stones and mountains.

Half the sky turned bright red, while the other half was inky black, creating an extremely bizarre scene.

The spread of darkness was blocked, causing a look of astonishment to appear on Li Feng’s face. The last time his dark power had been blocked was by the power of thunder. He hadn’t expected another type of energy to be able to resist his Darkness Domain.

He looked up at Utopia and saw that his opponent’s face was pale, with beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Li Feng instantly understood that resisting the Darkness Domain had taken a heavy toll on Utopia.

“Kid, you’re dead.”

Utopia unleashed more energy, his entire body radiating a blinding red light. His massive tiger paw descended, aiming to crush Li Feng. Wherever the paw passed, space itself shattered.

“Solidify!” Li Feng’s expression remained unchanged. A gray light bloomed in his left palm, and space seemed to freeze.

This was an application of his Spatial Molecules talent. By contracting space, he could create a transparent container, continuously compressing it to form a binding force.

“Roar!” Utopia roared. His tiger paw was ultimately unable to descend, trapped by the spatial power.

At this moment, he was frozen in mid-air. Because his paw was trapped, his entire body was largely immobilized.

Swish!

Seizing the opportunity, Li Feng unleashed a sharp sword light that struck Utopia’s white belly. With a bang, sparks flew, and the area became b*oody.

Utopia was injured, and severely so. His internal organs were in turmoil, and he couldn’t help but cough up a large mouthful of blood.

He was furious and wanted nothing more than to completely annihilate this formidable enemy. But the searing pain from his wound reminded him that he was no match for Li Feng.

Boom!

Utopia activated a secret technique. His entire body was filled with a terrifying life force, constantly repairing his injuries while also breaking free from the spatial confinement.

“Kid, the next time I see you, I will definitely eat you,” he roared. At first, he thought the heavens were on his side, allowing him to obtain the Ember while also killing a great enemy.

But the outcome was far from what he desired. He had encountered a formidable foe and suffered a crushing defeat. He was now extremely weak.

“There won’t be a next time. I’ll kill you today,” Li Feng sneered.

From the moment he entered this world, he had been constantly hunted by the mechanical forces. He was filled with killing intent. Being hunted for days for no reason would anger even a true Buddha.

Moreover, he couldn’t let the news of the Ember leak out.

He strode forward, his body seemingly teleporting as he closed in on Utopia. The Sword of Life sliced through the air, descending like a silver moon.

“Ah!”

Utopia swept his tail behind him. It was covered in intricate runes that intertwined, resembling a blade of light as it collided with the longsword.

With a bang, he let out a pained cry. His tail had been severed by the sword light.

He roared fiercely, “Kid, don’t push me, or you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

Utopia was terrified. The dark aura in the void grew thicker, the flames gradually extinguished, and the god of death seemed to be approaching.

He threatened Li Feng, saying he had a secret technique that could multiply his strength several times. “If you devour the Ember, it will definitely cause a huge commotion. If you’re injured then, just wait to be hunted!”

Although Utopia also desired the Ember, he recognized the situation. If he continued, he likely wouldn’t survive. And if he died, the Ember, no matter how good, would be of no use to him.

“You’ve chased me several times, and you think you can just walk away? Don’t be ridiculous,” Li Feng said coldly, not stopping his attacks.

Utopia would never have guessed that he had already devoured the Ember. But even if he told him, Utopia wouldn’t believe it.

Bang! Bang!

One chased, and the other fled. Energy surged in the void. They quickly crossed the snowy mountain range and arrived at a desolate hilly area. The shockwaves from their battle turned some hills, stones, and trees into dust, and the earth cracked open with deep fissures.

“Are you really going for mutual destruction?” Utopia roared furiously. But this time, his voice was slightly weaker, the red light on his body dimmed, his back was covered in cracks, and blood flowed freely.

Li Feng showed no fear. After fighting for so long, he also had multiple wounds. But compared to Utopia, he was clearly in much better shape. He said, “You’re overthinking it. Only the fish will die, not the net. Your fate is sealed: death.”

“Fine, you forced me to do this.” Utopia’s expression was grim. He couldn’t drag this out any longer. If he continued to fight, he might not even have a chance to unleash his final burst of power.

Boom!

He activated the secret runes within his body. The dim red light on his body brightened once more, and patterns appeared on his tiger body. A tangible energy swept outwards.

Li Feng’s pupils contracted. He could sense that the opponent’s aura was several times stronger than before.

“Tiger’s Roar Shakes the Heavens!”

Utopia opened his massive mouth, and a blinding red light erupted, surging towards the dark area like a tidal wave.

With a bang, the light pierced through the darkness, tearing open a hole.

Immediately after, he pounced towards Li Feng. His entire body was covered in interwoven runes, and a suppressing force appeared in the void, ultimately transforming into a long halberd that pierced towards Li Feng.

He had always been wary of Li Feng’s Darkness Domain. Now that it was torn, he launched a killing blow without hesitation.

Li Feng circulated his breathing technique to its limit. Darkness surged out, but it was still suppressed. Facing the halberd’s attack, he swung the Sword of Life, and endless starlight bloomed, as if a galaxy had descended.

Boom!

A dazzling light erupted in the void, shining brilliantly in the explosion. The area below, spanning dozens of kilometers, was reduced to ruins. Stones, trees, and other matter vanished in the wind.

“What happened? Could that energy fluctuation be from two General-level figures fighting?” The two had already crossed the icy region and arrived at a new area, where many Metal Lifeforms resided.

At this moment, they were all staring in shock at the center of Li Feng and Utopia’s battle, their faces filled with astonishment.

“It’s too terrifying. So this is the power of General-level experts. I feel like my whole body is trembling, and I want to kneel down,” said a Professional-level dimensional creature.

His face was pale. Although he was far from the center of the battle, he was still shaken by the aura.

…

…

In the void, Li Feng parried with his longsword, sword energy crisscrossing, and finally managed to shatter the halberd. But the terrifying force also sent him flying, the energy impacting his body, causing his chest to cave in slightly, bones to break, and blood to splatter.

Finally, after flying for several thousand meters, Li Feng’s body crashed into a canyon.

◈◈◈

Buzz!

A glaze-like light appeared on his wound. This was the Immortal Divine Body taking effect, repairing the injury.

Pfft! Li Feng couldn’t help but cough up a mouthful of blood. The opponent’s desperate attack was truly terrifying. The force had reached the Destruction level, causing him severe injuries. Even with the Immortal Divine Body, it would take some time to recover.

His face was pale, but his gaze instantly pierced through the thousands of meters. He saw Utopia. The opponent’s fate was even more miserable than his. His body was torn, blood flowed, almost forming a small lake.

Bang!

Li Feng stood up, his legs propelling him forward, creating small pits in the ground with each step. When he reached Utopia, the latter was already on his last breath.

“I hate this…” Utopia looked at Li Feng, his eyes filled with regret, remorse, and fear.

This was the closest he had ever been to the Ember, but he was powerless to obtain it and was now facing death.

“Die!” Li Feng didn’t give him a chance. He sliced off Utopia’s head with a single swing, and blood spurted out.

Afterwards, Li Feng didn’t stay here. This great battle had attracted a lot of attention. He was heavily injured and didn’t want to be hunted.

Li Feng didn’t choose to fly conspicuously. Instead, he kept his head down and ran at full speed, choosing to travel through forested areas, eventually disappearing.

…

…

“This is General Utopia. He was actually killed.”

“How is this possible? Utopia is one of the top experts. Who could possibly kill him?”

A long time after the battle had subsided, some dimensional creatures dared to approach the battlefield. When they discovered the identity of the deceased, an uproar broke out.

Utopia, one of the most powerful magnates in the Metal Lifeform World, had been beheaded here. If this news were to spread, it would likely cause a magnitude ten earthquake.

In fact, that was exactly what happened.

When the news of Utopia’s death spread, everyone’s attention fell on this place. Mechanical forces even began to advance towards this area.

At the same time, many Metal Lifeforms personally went to investigate. For a time, this place became the center of attention, even overshadowing the enthusiasm for finding the Ember.

If Li Feng had continued to stay in the same place, he would likely have been hunted by the native lifeforms. No one would allow the existence of a powerful being who could threaten them.

However, no one knew that Dark Thunder had also died, but in another snowy area. Otherwise, the entire world would have likely gone even crazier, hunting Li Feng at all costs.

…

…

At this moment!

In the snowy mountains of the far west, a figure was strolling. He was tall and straight, a full one hundred and eighty centimeters tall, with golden hair cascading down his shoulders. Each strand of hair seemed to glow, making him look like a blazing sun.

This was Eden Adams, who had been tracking them. At this moment, his expression was calm as he searched inch by inch.

Because this area was covered in snow year-round, although he had set out immediately after receiving the news, many traces had been covered.

“Perhaps I cannot find your tracks, but energy will not dissipate so easily. As long as you have made a move, I will definitely find you.”

Eden Adams muttered to himself. Even without any clues, he wasn’t worried. His mental power was very strong, and he could track various energy changes.

He walked past one snowy mountain after another.

Suddenly, he stopped. He raised his arm, which was as clear as a gemstone, and pointed lightly into the distance. A rainbow-like beam of light shot out.

Boom!

A massive explosion occurred in the distance. A dimensional creature that had been spying on this area was reduced to dust.

Eden Adams’ expression remained unchanged, as if he had done something insignificant. He continued forward. When he reached a flat, snowy area, his eyes suddenly lit up. “Found it.”

His entire body radiated light, and the surrounding snow began to melt, revealing a bare patch of ground. There were some remains of corpses on the ground.

“Trief.” Adams’s usually unperturbed face finally showed a change. He recognized these corpses. They belonged to Trief and his team.

His ominous premonition from earlier had come true.

“Whoever killed you, I will avenge you,” Eden Adams said with murderous intent.

He carefully examined Trief and the others’ corpses and found that most of them had died from sword wounds. There was also a familiar energy at the wounds, which quickly allowed him to identify the killer as Li Feng.

This discovery made him furious.

Finally, he used his energy to dig a large pit and buried Trief and the others. Then he continued his search.

Soon, he found more clues in another area.

“Dark Thunder is dead too?” Adams found the corpse of a leopard. It was Dark Thunder, whom the entire world had been searching for.

At this moment, his expression finally turned ugly. Even when he learned of Trief and the others’ deaths, his expression hadn’t changed much. But now, he couldn’t help it.

“Dark Thunder appeared in this area. No wonder Trief and the others showed signs of being hunted by Utopia’s mechanical forces. The Ember might have fallen into Li Feng’s hands.” Eden Adams was very calm. He connected some things together and quickly deduced the truth.

But this truth made him feel very uneasy. If the Ember had fallen into the hands of a Metal Lifeform, he was confident he could snatch it.

But if it had fallen into Li Feng’s hands, there might be unforeseen complications.

“But Grena and the others are guarding the dungeon entrance. There shouldn’t be any problems. Even if Li Feng escapes the dungeon, he will be intercepted immediately.”

Thinking of this, Eden Adams calmed down a little.

However, he didn’t know that Li Feng had already devoured the Ember. Otherwise, he would have gone mad. He had planned for so long, but in the end, it was all for nothing.

Having learned the truth, Adams didn’t stay in the far west.

Instead, he headed towards the place where Utopia had died, wanting to track Li Feng’s trail.

“D*mn it! If Trief hadn’t died, I wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble,” Eden Adams thought angrily.

Trief was very skilled at tracking, but he had died at Li Feng’s hands. This made his hatred for Li Feng reach an unprecedented height.

…

…

In a dense forest.

Li Feng looked at the talent section of his attribute panel. Some words were gradually appearing, but they were still very blurry and hadn’t completely formed into an Awakening skill.

Suddenly, a system notification sounded, causing him to freeze. Then, a wave of ecstasy washed over him. The Awakening quest he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
