"A beast tide?"

Lin Feng stood in the queue, his ears perked up.

The burly man continued to roar: "According to scout reports, this beast tide is classified as level C, and the total number of beasts is expected to exceed ten thousand."

The crowd erupted in uproar.

The last time a C-level beast tide occurred was eight months ago. Nearly two hundred people died on the sixth line of defense, and three sections of the city wall collapsed.

"All sergeant majors and above, report to command post immediately! All others return to your posts, inspect equipment, and stockpile medical supplies!"

As soon as the burly man finished speaking, the surrounding soldiers began to stir.

Lin Feng did not follow the crowd toward the command post.

He turned back to his tent, picked up the Rift Mountain, and headed west towards the camp.

I ran into Zhang Qian on the road.

"Sergeant Lin! The command post is on the east side; you've come to the wrong place!"

"I'm not going."

"Huh?" Zhang Qian caught up. "This is a meeting personally convened by Commander Li; all sergeant majors must attend..."

"Help me ask for leave."

Lin Feng didn't turn his head, his steps never stopping.

"Just say I have diarrhea."

Zhang Qian stood there, his mouth agape for a long time.

Have loose bowels?

The beast tide is coming, and the entire defense line is on level two alert. You, a sergeant major, are telling me you have diarrhea?

But Raymond Lam has already gone far away.

Zhang Qian stomped his foot, then had no choice but to grit his teeth and run to the command post, wondering how to explain things to Commander Li.

Lin Feng left the camp and headed straight for the nearest military-controlled E-level rift.

The beast tide will arrive in three days.

Three days.

What is preparation time for others is monster-hunting time for him.

The beasts in the beast tide are too diverse and chaotic to deal with individually.

But the rifts are different. The monsters in the rifts spawn at fixed times, and they are densely packed with a single species, making them a tailor-made experience dungeon.

He had three days to elevate his skills to a new level.

There were two military guards at the entrance to the crevice. After checking Lin Feng's sergeant major badge, they immediately let him through.

"Sergeant Lin, should we arrange a support team for you?"

"Need not."

"Going in alone?"

"Um."

The two guards looked at each other, but did not stop them.

The sergeant major has the authority to do whatever he wants.

Lin Feng plunged headfirst into the crevice.

The moment the mountain-splitting sword was drawn, the system panel lit up in the corner of the field of vision.

Current Martial Arts Points: 0

[Steel of the Blade: 134/500]

Time to get to work.

On the first level, there are eight armored centipedes, lying in the crevices of the rocks on both sides of the passage.

Lin Feng didn't even slow down his pace. He swept the mountain-splitting blade left and right, and the centipede's carapace was practically made of paper in front of the A-grade battle blade.

Two cuts.

The eight centipedes were divided into sixteen sections.

[Defeat 8 E-rank monsters: Armored Centipede, gain 400 Martial Arts Points]

[Steel of the Blade: 142/500]

On the second level, a swarm of twelve Frost Crystal Scorpions formed a semicircle and charged towards him.

Lin Feng did not retreat. He used the "Stealth Step" technique, leaving afterimages as he charged directly into the center of the scorpion swarm.

The Mountain-Splitting Strike was so precise that each cut entered the gaps in the scorpion's abdominal armor.

Six seconds.

All twelve scorpions died.

[Defeat 12 E-rank Beasts: Frost Crystal Scorpions, gain 600 Martial Arts Points]

[Steel Blade: 154/500! Second Stage Activation: Armor Penetration Effect! Ignores 100% of the opponent's defense!]

Lin Feng gripped the knife and sensed the change.

The blade had an added layer of luster that was barely perceptible to the naked eye, and when it was swung, a faint, low hum could be heard in the air.

He found a protruding rock and casually cleaved it with his knife.

The rock split open in the middle, and the cut surface was incredibly smooth.

"Armor penetration".

Lin Feng licked his dry lips.

Previously, when fighting E-rank monsters, I relied on the material advantage of the Rift Mountain to hack and slash.

Now that the armor-piercing effect is activated, it's like every attack has built-in penetration.

The carapace of a strange beast? Waste paper.

He accelerated the pace of progress.

The third floor, the fourth floor, and the fifth floor.

Push forward relentlessly, killing whatever comes your way, and of course, collecting magic cores as well.

The speed is too fast; mining magic cores is a waste of time.

All he needs now is martial arts points and talent level.

[Defeat 3 E-rank monsters: Rock Armored Lizard, gain 150 Martial Arts Points]

[Defeat two E-rank monsters: Bloodclaw Giant Lizards, and gain 100 Martial Arts Points]

[Defeat E-rank Beast: Iron-Spined Python x1, gain 50 Martial Arts Points]

......

The system announcements kept ringing, and martial arts points were accumulating rapidly.

The sixth layer of the crack.

At the end of the passage, a huge black-armored spider was coiled up, its eight legs covered with sticky silk threads.

Peak E-level.

Previously, Lin Feng would have had to put in some extra effort.

Now?

He stepped forward with his knife and cleaved the spider's head.

The armor-piercing effect, combined with the A-level power of the Mountain-Splitting Technique, caused the hard black armor to crack instantly.

Before the spider could even scream, its brains were splattered all over the ground.

[Defeat E-rank Beast: Black Armored Spider King x1, gain 80 Martial Arts Points]

[Steel of the Blade: 168/500]

An E-grade crack was completely cleaned up from beginning to end.

Lin Feng glanced at the system.

Current Martial Arts Points: 2130

A little over two thousand.

enough.

Upgrade first.

"Realm level, +400."

[Consumption of martial arts points×400]

[Martial Realm Advancement: Martial Artist Stage 4 → Martial Artist Stage 5!]

The dull pain of the heat flowing through his body and his bones remodeling was already familiar. Lin Feng leaned against the rock wall and waited for half a minute before the heat subsided.

Clench your fist, then relax it.

it is good.

"Add another 500."

[Consumption of martial arts points×500]

[Martial Realm Advancement: Martial Artist Stage 5 → Martial Artist Stage 6!]

This time it came on suddenly. It felt like all the meridians in my body were on fire, and my teeth were clenched so tightly they were grinding. It took more than a minute for the pain to subside.

Martial artist, sixth dan.

He went from a fifth-dan martial arts apprentice a month ago to where he is now.

[Remaining Martial Arts Points: 1230]

Lin Feng looked at the remaining points, pondered for a moment, and then poured 500 points into "Broken Mountain Slash".

[Mountain-Slaying Slash (501/1000), power greatly increased]

I then threw all the remaining 730 points into "Lost Steps".

【"Stealth Step" (731/2000), movement speed significantly increased】

Lin Feng stood up and stretched his arms and legs.

He possesses the physique of a sixth-level martial artist, along with an armor-piercing talent, an A-grade battle sword, and two advanced martial arts techniques.

This configuration is considered above average for the sixth line of defense.

But not enough.

There will be a large number of C-level alien beasts in the beast tide.

C-rank, that's a monster at the Martial Grandmaster level.

He can handle D-level monsters without much trouble, but C-level? He's still a bit lacking.

There are three days left, with two and a half days remaining.

Lin Feng stepped out of the crevice and looked at the sky.

It's only afternoon.

He turned and walked toward the second crack.
