Chapter 392: Chapter 392: Big Shot
Shu Feng did not give chase, allowing the Black Wolf Thieves to escape into the jungle.
Danger lurked everywhere in the Erosion Realm, so Shu Feng had no desire to pursue them recklessly.
After tending to his wounds, Xiao Qing approached Shu Feng, his face full of gratitude. "Sir Wu Ren, thank you so much for your help!"
Shu Feng said calmly, "It was nothing."
Xiao Qing said with eager courtesy, "We’ve prepared two carriages! Please, you and Miss An, get inside and rest."
Within the large caravan were two luxurious carriages, originally prepared for Xiao Qing and the Sea Tributor. But Shu Feng’s combat prowess was terrifying; he could have slaughtered the entire caravan by himself. And Miss An was an even more unfathomably mysterious VIP. Xiao Qing and the Sea Tributor weren’t fools. They naturally knew what to do.
"Greetings, Miss An."
Shu Feng gave a slight nod and approached Miss An, who exuded an aura of profound and mysterious Charm, and offered a bow.
To Shu Feng’s Spiritual Sense, Miss An was merely an ordinary existence at the Spirit Master Realm. Yet, his instincts screamed that she was anything but simple; at the very least, she possessed a Divine Spirit Level alluring Ability.
"Mm."
Miss An gave Shu Feng a cursory glance before immediately boarding her luxurious carriage.
’She’s a major figure! The Erosion Realm is truly dangerous; you run into powerful people just like that.’
That one glance from Miss An made Shu Feng feel as if she had seen right through him, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. He was now certain: this stunningly beautiful young woman had an extraordinary background and was absolutely someone he could not afford to provoke.
Seven days later, in a stretch of wasteland.
"Another thousand meters and we’ll enter the Black Tortoise Realm! The World Law will change, so please be prepared!" After giving the reminder, Xiao Qing had the caravan press on.
The caravan traveled a thousand meters and stepped directly into the Black Tortoise Realm.
’So this is the Black Tortoise Realm! The world’s suppressive force is immense!’
The moment Shu Feng entered the Black Tortoise Realm, he felt his body being bound by invisible shackles. The immense Spiritual Power within him was instantly suppressed, making it incredibly difficult to circulate.
Of course, it wasn’t impossible to use Spiritual Power in the Black Tortoise Realm. It was just that the effect of using ten thousand points of Spiritual Power Value here was probably less effective than using a single point on Blue Star.
’My Spiritual Power Value is sealed, my Legendary Skills are sealed, and my physical attributes have been reduced to a tenth of their original strength. My current combat power has dropped to about the level of a Great Spirit Master.’
’But, given enough time, the Base Space can analyze this world and restore my Power.’ A strange glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes.
As soon as they entered the Black Tortoise Realm, the unfathomably mysterious Miss An departed from her carriage and vanished without a trace.
Shu Feng and the other unaffiliated travelers also went their separate ways, no longer following the Hao Wei Escort Agency’s caravan.
「Ten days later.」
Inside a cave on a desolate mountain.
’Analysis is at 40%. My physical attributes have recovered by forty percent, my various Skills have regained thirty percent of their power, and I can now use twenty percent of my Spiritual Power. Overall, my combat power should be comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster of this world.’
Shu Feng silently assessed his combat strength.
The Laws of the Black Tortoise Realm were completely different from those of Blue Star. On Blue Star, for experts of the same rank, one point of Spiritual Power could crush ten thousand points of Profound Qi. In the Black Tortoise Realm, this principle was reversed: one point of Profound Qi could crush ten thousand points of Spiritual Power.
In the Black Tortoise Realm, Cultivators were divided into the ranks of Martial Disciple, Martial Artist, Martial Master, Grand Martial Master, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Martial Venerable, and Martial Saint. It was only by relying on his incredibly powerful physique that Shu Feng could barely contend with this world’s Martial Arts Grandmasters.
’It’s time to start searching for my counterpart in this world.’
Shu Feng began to perform the Secret Technique taught by Spirit Saint Wu Zhongchao. He closed his eyes tightly and chanted a strange incantation, his very soul vibrating with the effort.
’Found him! In that direction!’
An hour later, Shu Feng’s eyes snapped open, and he gazed toward the northwest.
「Inside Guangliu City.」
A young woman in green robes with black hair galloped swiftly on her horse. Her skin was as clear as snow, and with her oval face and large eyes, she was exceedingly beautiful, yet she carried an air of arrogance.
As the beautiful Knight galloped through the city, everyone scrambled to get out of her way.
"What a beautiful angel! If I could just speak a few words to her, I could die happy!"
A young beggar in ragged clothes, his face bruised and swollen and his hair a tangled mess, stared dumbly at the beautiful Knight as he spoke.
Beside the young beggar, another one watched him in silence.
A middle-aged beggar sneered, "Mad Dog Egg! That’s Yuan Xian’Er, the daughter of Guangliu City’s City Lord! She’s the number one beauty of our Liuguang City and a True Disciple of the Bi Yao Demon Sect. Her fiancé is the Xuan Mo Saint Child of the Ten Thousand Profound Demon Sect. You want to make a move on her? Not unless you’re a Martial Saint."
Mad Dog Egg declared loudly, "Then I’ll become a Martial Saint! And I’ll take her, and the world, for my own."
"There you are, future Martial Saint! Mad Dog Egg, you fucking dare come beg on my turf? You’re looking to die! Get him!"
A burly, middle-aged man stepped out from the side. He glanced at Mad Dog Egg, a vicious glint in his eyes, then waved his hand and roared.
Five beggars immediately pounced on Mad Dog Egg.
"Black Tiger!"
The moment Mad Dog Egg saw the middle-aged man, his eyes narrowed. He instantly grabbed the young beggar beside him and fled desperately.
Black Tiger was a beggar boss near the west gate of Liuguang City. He controlled a dozen able-bodied beggars and several dozen child beggars whom he had crippled to use as props. He had a fearsome reputation among the beggars; to fall into his hands was a death sentence.
The middle-aged beggar and the other two scattered in all directions, not daring to get involved.
Mad Dog Egg was malnourished and small, and he was pulling another young beggar with him, so he couldn’t run fast. He was soon overtaken by the five able-bodied beggars.
A tall beggar grabbed Mad Dog Egg, gave a hard yank, and threw him to the ground.
The other four beggars revealed sadistic smiles, raised their clubs, and began to savagely beat Mad Dog Egg and the young beggar beside him.
Mad Dog Egg immediately wrapped his arms tightly around the other young beggar, shielding him with his own frail body.
After a frantic beating from the five beggars, Mad Dog Egg’s body shuddered. He coughed up a mouthful of blood that splattered all over the other young beggar, and his body began to convulse.
"Mad Dog Egg, I’m warning you, you little punk. Don’t let me see you again, or I’ll beat you to death. We’re leaving!"
Black Tiger walked up to Mad Dog Egg and spat a thick glob of phlegm on his head. He left him with that cold parting shot and led his men away.
