Chapter 816 "A New Attempt at Power"

"Okay, guys, now we have the power of the Soul Fountain." Zhang Meng's face was full of excitement, as if he had just drunk a glass of stimulant. "Should we find some villains to see how strong this power is next?"

"Can't you calm down a bit?" Ye Li shook her head helplessly, "We have just gained this power, and we still need time to adapt. We can't act rashly."

"Ye Li is right." Qin Feng said softly, "The power of the Soul Spring does make us stronger, but the real challenge is how to control it and use it properly at critical moments."

"Well, I agree." Li Xiao nodded coldly, "Power can easily make people lose control, especially this kind of powerful power. If we can't control it, it will become a burden to us."

"Hey, stop hitting me all the time!" Zhang Meng waved his hand with an indifferent expression, "I am the one who can control power the best! Just watch, I will play with this power very well!"

"Really? Then what do you feel now?" Chu Tian raised his eyebrows, obviously curious.

"Need I say more? Of course it's endless power!" Zhang Meng stood still immediately, his face full of pride, "I feel full of strength now, I can knock down ten enemies with one punch!"

"It seems that you haven't fully understood this power." Qin Feng smiled. "The power of the Soul Spring is not just a boost in physical strength, it's more like a connection with the world. We must not only learn how to use it, but also understand its laws."

"The connection between the worlds?" Zhang Meng blinked. "You mean, I can now 'chat' with this world?"

"You can understand it this way." Qin Feng nodded, "The Soul Fountain gives us the power of balance. This not only means becoming stronger, but also means that we can resonate with the energy of this world and perceive those subtle changes."

"Perceiving changes?" Zhang Meng looked at himself and frowned. "I just feel that I have become more powerful."

Ye Li couldn't help but laugh, "Zhang Meng's ability to understand is still the same as always."

"Hey! I'm listening very carefully!" Zhang Meng defended, "It's just that I prefer actual combat operations."

Qin Feng shook his head gently with a tolerant smile on his face, "Well, Zhang Meng, since you want to feel this power through actual combat, we can do some tests to see if you can really master it."

"Great! This is exactly what I want!" Zhang Meng clapped his hands, his eyes flashing with anticipation, "Come on, let me see the limit of this power!"

"We can start with simple control." Qin Feng pointed to a huge rock in front of him, "Use your strength to try to move the rock and see if you can mobilize the energy of the Soul Spring to complete the task."

"Move a stone? That's easy!" Zhang Meng was full of confidence. He strode to the stone, took a deep breath, and then pushed it with all his strength.

However, to his surprise, the stone did not move at all.

"What's going on?" Zhang Meng was confused. "I clearly feel very powerful, why doesn't the stone react?"

"You didn't use the right method." Qin Feng said lightly, "The power of the Soul Spring is not exerted by brute force, it is more like a spiritual guidance. You need to concentrate, feel the connection between the stone and the surrounding energy, and then transfer the power to it."

"Oh...so that's how it is." Zhang Meng scratched his head, looking a little confused.

"Try to relax yourself." Ye Li suggested, "Don't just think about strength, but feel the surrounding environment and calm down."

"Relax and feel..." Zhang Meng closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, then stretched out his hand again and gently touched the boulder.

This time, he didn't push hard, but tried to concentrate and connect with the energy around him. Suddenly, he felt a gentle force rising from the soles of his feet and slowly flowing into his palms. He opened his eyes and saw that the stone actually shook slightly.

"Wow! I did it!" Zhang Meng shouted in surprise, and almost jumped up with excitement, "I can really control this power!"

"Don't be too happy." Qin Feng smiled slightly, "You have just touched a small part of this power. You need more practice to fully master it."

"No problem! As long as I can do it the first time, I can do it the second time!" Zhang Meng said with fighting spirit.

"It seems that you have finally found the right method." Chu Tian smiled and said, "Keep practicing like this. When you truly master the power of the Soul Spring, we can face greater challenges."

Zhang Meng returned to the stone again and began to practice the process of sensing and transmitting energy. Every time he could feel the flow of that strange power, although his movements were not very skillful, he had obviously improved a lot.

"I think Zhang Meng has really learned something this time." Ye Li said to Qin Feng with a smile, "Although he is always reckless, he can still keep up with us at critical moments."

"He is indeed making progress." Qin Feng nodded, revealing a gratified smile, "It takes time for strength to grow. Everyone has a different way, and Zhang Meng's way may be to understand through action."

"In other words, he is a 'practitioner'." Chu Tian joked.

"Hey! I heard you!" Zhang Meng protested loudly, "I am a man of action! No matter how good your theory is, don't you still have to rely on me to implement it in practice?"

"Okay, okay, you're a practical person." Ye Li smiled and shook her head, "Keep practicing, and we'll see when you can lift this stone."

"No problem!" Zhang Meng said confidently, "Just wait and see!"

Zhang Meng continued to concentrate on connecting with the power of the Soul Spring, constantly adjusting his state. As he worked hard, the stone began to move slowly.

"I succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly, "I really lifted it this time!"

"Well done." Qin Feng said approvingly, "Next we will conduct more training to ensure that everyone can make full use of this power."

"Wow, we still have to train?" Zhang Meng showed a slightly tired expression on his face.

"Don't forget, you are a guardian." Li Xiao said coldly, "Without sufficient training, how can you protect this world?"

"Okay, let's train." Zhang Meng sighed, "But I already feel that I am strong enough!"

"Then you continue to grow stronger." Qin Feng smiled, "Our adventure has just begun."

"Come on, the world is waiting for us!" Zhang Meng regained his spirit and continued to practice with full fighting spirit.

They smiled at each other. Although they had already embarked on the road to protect the world, the challenges ahead had just begun. The power of the soul fountain not only made them stronger, but also made them understand that true power comes from inner balance and wisdom.

"We already have the power, now it's time to prove that we can use it well." Qin Feng said softly.

"That's right." Ye Li nodded with a smile, "Next challenge, come on!"
