Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

Chapter 13 Difficult Cultivation

Luo Feng and the others returned to Shangcun and went back to their respective homes.

He put down the longbow.

Fortunately, we have some golden iron bamboo at home. Golden iron bamboo is very hard and has a high density, comparable to metal, so it takes quite a bit of time to process.

It took almost night to finish processing the seven long arrows.

The Qi Blood Vine Root was refined by the main body, and the effect was quite good, with one-tenth the efficacy of the flesh and blood of that Spirit-level Great Ferocious Beast.

but.

That's clearly not enough.

That's still too little.

The simplest way is to go hunting in the Da Mao Mountains yourself. If you encounter a Spirit-level Great Ferocious Beast, you only need about a dozen or twenty of them to make its true form reach the level of an clone.

Now, he can also unleash the potential of his clone through some body-refining methods. He has many body-refining methods in mind, but they are basically not applicable to clones.

Over the past few days, he has been working on adapting and gradually improving the method to suit the body-refining of clones.

As for the main body... apart from circulating power through clones and consuming ferocious flesh and spiritual medicines, the clones' cultivation methods cannot be applied to the main body at all. They cannot absorb the Qi of this world, and even normal training is difficult to influence them.

This made Luo Feng feel strange and give him a headache.

The next day.

The first rays of dawn fell on Luo Feng. It was almost dawn when he was already practicing body tempering in the courtyard. His clothes were soaked with sweat, and he had even eaten several pieces of dried meat.

Luo Feng stood up.

"This method does have an effect, but not as great as I expected. This is really difficult." Luo Feng never doubted his own abilities, but even this small body-refining exercise has given him a hard time.

One problem is that his thinking is now limited, and his control over his body is restricted, making it impossible for him to achieve the precision he imagined, which greatly reduces the effectiveness.

creak.

Belle came out of the room, looking like she hadn't woken up yet.

For the past few days, her husband has been getting up very early, which has made her somewhat unaccustomed to it.

"Dano, you've been getting up so early lately, are you always cultivating?" Belle asked.

Luo Feng explained directly, "No, I started forging it today. I changed the bow with the clan chief yesterday, and it requires more strength. I need to try to master this big bow as soon as possible."

Baili belongs to the third village of Maoshan Village, the same village as the clan chief. If the clan chief wants to investigate him, he will probably have to go through this Baili.

Belle nodded at Luo Feng's reasoning: "There's no need to work too hard. I'm very content with our life."

While Baili was cooking, Luo Feng changed his body-training style, combining it with his legs, waist, and the weight-adding bags in his hands, and began a new round of training.

After ten minutes, I was panting heavily.

The body doesn't get timely energy replenishment, so the effect is too poor.

"It's still because of the Qi sensation. The Spirit Aperture Pearl only gives me a weak Qi sensation. As long as my body can't naturally obtain Qi from heaven and earth, the effectiveness of my body-refining methods won't be very good."

Luo Feng frowned.

Over the past few days, he has felt increasing pressure; the difficulty of this world has once again refreshed his understanding.

After breakfast, we're going hunting today.

At the village entrance, the same group of able-bodied men had already gathered.

Luo Feng carried the same large bow from yesterday, and he looked even more imposing than before.

Upon seeing Luo Feng, the big wolf immediately ran up to him: "Is this the big bow we changed to yesterday? It looks so majestic, it's a perfect match for the captain."

"Captain, may I try it too?" Scaled Fish asked, somewhat envious.

Luo Feng smiled and handed the bow to Lin Yu: "If you can draw it, you can borrow it for two days."

Taking the longbow, Lin Yu gripped the bow with one hand and stretched the string with the other, pulling hard, but the bow was only pulled open a little, the entire bow remained firmly in place, not moving an inch.

After two unsuccessful attempts, the scaled fish returned the fish to Luo Feng, saying, "I have to admit, this thing is too big for me to stretch on my own. I feel like it would take at least six of me."

"So, does that mean we have to eat today?" The wolf's eyes lit up.

"Let's go, let's go into the mountains."

Luo Feng was in high spirits. This time, in addition to the four people who usually teamed up with him, he also brought five other people, making it a team of ten.

Thirty-seven led the remaining men to guard the area, and there were also people specifically patrolling the vicinity.

We continued along the mountain road towards Mount Damao.

"Captain, yesterday when Thirty-Seven and the others went into the mountains, they saw that Third Village and the others brought back a large Chi Niu from the direction of West Mountain Road. It looked like a Chi Niu that was close to or even at the Spirit level. I don't know how lucky they are. I wonder how much that Chi Niu can be exchanged for from the clan chief."

On the way, the big wolf was still talking animatedly.

"It's definitely not a Spirit-level Chi Niu. Even the clan chief might not be able to kill a Spirit-level Chi Niu. Who in the three villages has that ability?"

"What if it's like the three-eyed, snarling tiger we encountered the other day?"

"Stop arguing. Yesterday, the three villages went hunting with Mu Boming*Da Duanshan. That Chi Niu was a Spirit-level Chi Niu. They were incredibly lucky."

Upon hearing the name Mu Boming*Da Duanshan, everyone else fell silent.

Da Duanshan is one of only two true spiritual realm experts in the entire Damaoshan Village, meaning he is on the same level as the clan leader. He possesses a Heavenly Aperture and has awakened his Qi sense through cultivation, eventually achieving a spiritual body.

In the villagers' eyes, his strength was not much weaker than that of the clan chief.

This is why there are so many people in the third village.

With two true experts at the Awakening Realm present, even the fierce and ferocious dared not make a move against the three villages.

Luo Feng listened and couldn't help but feel envious.

A spirit-level Chi Ox, large in size and fleshy. Its hide is more precious than that of his three-eyed tiger, and its toughness is such that even a single claw might not be able to tear it apart, despite both being spirit-level ferocious beasts.

"How about we go a little deeper this time? My great bow is even more lethal. If we have a good chance, we might be able to come back with a lot of loot," Luo Feng suggested.

"If the captain is so confident, then of course we are too. This time, we outnumber them, so let's take on some big ones." Big Wolf said, turning to glance at everyone. "What do you all say?"

"Yes," all eight responded in unison.

Luo Feng smiled and said, "Alright, you'll have to follow my orders from now on."

As the group of ten ventured deeper, they naturally reached a consensus and silently continued their journey into the heart of the world, no longer speaking.

After a little over three and a half hours, Luo Feng and his group arrived at the place where they had hunted the Spirit-level Great Ferocious Tiger six days prior. As always, it was unusually quiet here.

Upon arriving here, everyone became cautious and quickly set up ambushes in various areas, with only a few still moving around quietly.

Those with sharp eyes climbed up tall trees, their gazes quickly scanning the surroundings again and again, while those with excellent hearing pressed their ears to the ground, catching any possible sounds coming from them.

They wait patiently while the search continues.

Two hours later, Luo Feng, who was squatting on the branch of a large tree, narrowed his eyes and saw a conspicuous flame-colored horse appearing in the direction of the depths of the Damao Mountains.

The ring of flames around its body didn't seem to be just ordinary ferocity; it was close to transforming into a spirit-level ferocity.

Malaysia is moving closer to their position.

"Everyone, the prey is here. Don't speak." Luo Feng's voice was very low, and only a few people near him could hear it. Those behind him watched his gestures.

Waiting quietly, Luo Feng gradually drew the bowstring taut.
