Earth's Foremost Psychic Master

Huaxia Nation, Northeast Base City.

“Dad!”

A beautiful young woman watched the live broadcast on the screen, murmuring in pain. She then abruptly stood up and rushed into her study next door. In the living room, the man and child watching the same broadcast looked on with confusion and surprise.

Inside the study.

The young woman quickly opened her computer, accessed her email, and clicked on the latest message, which contained a video attachment. Biting her lip, she trembled as she gently clicked the mouse.

*Beep.*

The video opened, revealing the bald 'Lei Shen' in white.

“Xiao Lei.” Lei Shen’s usual joking expression was gone, replaced by a gentle smile. “It’s been almost sixteen years since we last met, hasn’t it?”

“Do you remember the first time I took you to an amusement park? Do you remember the first time I taught you martial arts? I also remember the first time I scolded you, and the first time I hit you.” Lei Shen shook his head and smiled faintly. “I know you hate me, but even if I had to choose again, I would still choose to kill that scumbag.”

“I also know you won’t forgive me.”

“When your mother left you to me, I promised to make sure you’d be happy your whole life, that you wouldn’t suffer any grievances or hardships. I never expected things to turn out this way.”

“Enough of that.”

“Soon, I’ll be heading out with Uncle Hong. This time, I’m afraid it will be difficult for me to return alive. So, after much thought, I decided to send you this email!” Lei Shen wiped his bald head. “Xiao Lei, don’t worry, your dad will definitely kill that Devouring Beast.”

“I told you, I won’t let you suffer. This is my promise to your mother, and to you.”

“Your dad, who will always love you!”

On the video, Lei Shen smiled faintly, and then the video ended.

“Wuwu, wuwu…” The young woman immediately collapsed onto her desk, sobbing uncontrollably.

Only when you lose something do you truly understand the pain.

“Dad, Daddy, Daddy, come back, please come back, I was wrong, I was wrong.” The young woman cried hysterically, scenes from the past flashing through her mind. Her mother had died young, and Lei Shen had raised her single-handedly, doting on her immensely, spoiling her beyond measure.

But when she was sixteen, because of her first love, Lei Shen actually killed her boyfriend. Lei Lei, who had been doted on her entire life, was furious, ran away from home, and left behind harsh words…

Now.

She suddenly realized how deeply her father had loved her.

…

On the outer defensive wall of Kyoto Base City, Jia Yi was inspecting the wounded.

“Don’t move, lie down and rest properly,” Jia Yi urged.

“Yes, Commander,” the disabled young soldier, bandaged all over, replied.

Jia Yi straightened up.

“Commander,” a guard ran over.

“What is it?” Jia Yi asked. The guard lowered his voice. “Commander, Liu Ning has fallen.” Liu Ning was the youngest of Jia Yi’s direct disciples, only 19 this year, and Jia Yi was very fond of this young apprentice. With the war, almost all of Jia Yi’s disciples had been sent to the battlefield.

“Oh,” Jia Yi responded, saying nothing more, but his facial muscles twitched slightly.

“Xiao Ning…” Jia Yi murmured silently, looking at the entire infirmary. Many wounded soldiers were holding their phones, looking at photos, or reading letters.

“They are all so young!” Jia Yi felt profound grief, yet was powerless to do anything.

…

Hong and Lei Shen’s failure caused immense pain to Earth’s high-ranking officials. And the information they received from Luo Feng—that Flowing Silver Guards were utterly incapable of killing the Devouring Beast—only deepened their anguish.

However!

Despite the despair among the high command, the live broadcast propaganda did not reflect it!

The global broadcast was still ongoing, but now it was replaying previous battles and falsely claiming that ‘Hong’ and ‘Lei Shen’ were only severely injured, not dead. It also announced that the two silver giants were newly developed technological giants, giving humanity hope!

This filled countless ordinary citizens with hope!

And countless soldiers fought on!

…

Luo Feng had returned home.

In the living room, the television was on.

“These two silver giants are the latest technological giants developed jointly by various nations. As it has been for thousands of years, humanity will surely win this war!” The voice from the television made Luo Feng unable to bear it any longer. He left the living room and went up to the third-floor rooftop.

On the rooftop.

A cool breeze blew, clearing Luo Feng’s head slightly.

“It’s no use, Luo Feng, give up!” Babata advised. “Earth has no hope left. Let the others die; you can’t stop it.”

“This isn’t just one or two people dying, it’s countless lives,” Luo Feng retorted angrily. “Can I just stand by and watch countless teenagers, even children, infants, die like this? Can I just stand by and watch Earth become a monster’s paradise? Humanity vanish? There must be a way, there must be.”

The thought of the entire Earth becoming a monster’s territory was a nightmare.

“The soul is the foundation of life.”

Luo Feng’s eyes lit up. “The Devouring Beast’s life aura suddenly became so much weaker than before. Does that mean its soul is also much weaker? Babata, tell me.”

“Uh—” Babata hesitated.

“Speak,” Luo Feng said, a hint of annoyance in his voice.

“Yes, it is weakened. But it’s not something a planetary-level Third-tier psychic master like you can provoke,” Babata quickly replied.

“Babata, you said it’s very young! Indeed… planetary-level and stellar-level beings cannot roam the cosmos. It’s currently only stellar-level First-tier, which means it must have been born on Earth! If something so powerful had been born earlier, it would have been discovered by humans long ago.”

“Being discovered so late means it must have been born recently,” Luo Feng continued. “It’s still very young, and its soul should be relatively immature.”

“Moreover, it has been continuously hit by a ‘B6-grade laser cannon,’ and then by ‘Hong and Lei Shen.’ These two consecutive heavy blows mean its strength is probably only 10-20% of its original.” Luo Feng’s eyes gleamed. “If I use the desperate measure from the Yunmo Star lineage’s secret technique, ‘Void Tower’… the technique itself is very powerful, and once I go all out…”

“If that’s not enough, I’ll rely on the ‘Six-pointed Star’ secret technique to gather other Earth powerhouses to join me…” Luo Feng’s mind rapidly conjured methods.

The Yunmo Star lineage’s secret techniques were very powerful!

And Babata had always emphasized that Luo Feng should study those secret techniques. Currently, although he hadn’t studied them too deeply, the profound ones… Luo Feng’s current strength couldn’t even execute them. He could already unleash his strongest attack power.

“Luo Feng, what are you thinking?!” Babata roared. “I forbid it! I absolutely forbid it! I waited fifty thousand years for a successor, and I absolutely will not allow you to throw yourself to your death!”

“I’m not throwing myself to my death. Didn’t Hong and Lei Shen burn their souls and not die?” Luo Feng asked.

“But they’re in a deep slumber!”

Babata raged, “In the cosmos, even Immortal beings, once their souls are severely damaged and they fall into slumber, some take millions of years to recover! And some never wake up. Hong and Lei Shen didn’t die, but they’ve fallen into a true soul slumber! Their souls weren’t strong to begin with; if they can wake up, it’ll be in a year or two, otherwise, they’ll never wake up and will perish in their sleep.”

“Luo Feng, don’t act recklessly,” Babata fumed.

“First, I am Luo Feng; second, I am a Yunmo Star successor,” Luo Feng communicated mentally.

“You want to die?” Babata demanded.

“Babata,” Luo Feng looked around. “Do you think I want to die? I don’t want to die! How much I want to see my child born, how much I want to hear my child call me ‘Dad’! I want to live! I dream of living!”

“But you…” Babata hesitated.

“Babata, I now have two choices! First, be a coward, watching countless compatriots being killed, watching countless innocent children crying for their mommies and daddies as they are killed, watching infants still nursing being killed… watching them die, while I take my family and children and hide them in the ‘Yunmo Star ship,’ acting like a coward! Afterwards, my children will be born, living lives without sunlight, without friends. They will only know from my stories that there were once many, many children like them on Earth, but they all died.”

“And Babata, you said that only planetary-level beings have the ability to wander the cosmos and make a living! Without reaching planetary-level, my children and wife would be in great danger on other planets in the cosmos,” Luo Feng said.

Babata remained silent, acknowledging the truth.

Indeed, that was the case.

The cosmos was not peaceful! Conflict existed on every planet. A planetary-level being bringing ordinary people into the cosmos would be disastrous.

“I need to reach stellar-level for my family to live a good, stable life in the cosmos. And how long will it take me to reach stellar-level? Decades? Will my children have to spend decades on a spaceship?” Luo Feng shook his head. “That would be a nightmare. To spend decades on a spaceship, detached from society—I would rather die than let my children live such a life.”

“The second choice!”

“I, Luo Feng, will use the ‘Six-pointed Star’ secret technique to have five planetary-level powerhouses sacrifice their souls, form a formation, and burn their souls! Then, I will unleash the final desperate move of ‘Void Tower’! Both of these are Yunmo Star secret techniques, and both involve burning souls. To kill a Starry Sky Behemoth whose strength is only 10-20% of its original, there is great hope.”

“Several possible outcomes: One, success, and I don’t die. Countless people will have hope. That would, of course, be the best.”

“Two, success, and I die. However… my children can live good lives, go to kindergarten, have playmates. My parents, Xu Xin, and others will take care of them. They will only lack me as a father. He will learn about his father in history books later, and I believe he will be proud of me.”

“Three, failure, and I also die. But the Devouring Beast will certainly be even more severely wounded, giving humanity hope to kill it!” Luo Feng’s expression was calm. “Babata, which path do you think I should choose?”

Babata wanted to speak, but didn’t know how to persuade him.

“Babata, truly. Ever since I became a warrior at eighteen, I haven’t feared death!”

“On the contrary, I fear more that my children will spend decades on a spaceship!”

“I fear more that the sacrifices of Hong, Lei Shen, and countless others will become meaningless!”

“Death is nothing to be afraid of. Life is a cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death.”

“I want to fight for my friends, like Wei Wen.”

“I want to fight for my compatriots.”

“I want to fight for the countless children still in pregnant women’s bellies, children who, like mine, haven’t been born yet.”

“I’ll fight for them.”

“And I’ll fight for myself too!” Luo Feng laughed heartily. “You know, Hong and Lei Shen went to fight, they are Earth’s two strongest warriors. But I, I am also Earth’s strongest psychic master! How can I shrink back? Haha!”

Luo Feng’s laughter silenced Babata.

How long had it been…

Babata hadn’t felt such complex emotions. For the first time, Babata felt a hint of admiration for this successor, whom he had always considered to have ordinary talent and had chosen only out of necessity.

“Alright, I’ll help you,” Babata said in a low voice.

“Haha, don’t be like that. I said, if we fight, there’s still a chance to live, right?” At this moment, Luo Feng’s mind was clear and serene.
