140 The Secret of the Continent

Chapter 140

Feng Ming asked his father in disbelief: "Dad, do you mean that those pirates and the silver armored guards of the court are all going for the legendary dragon? Have the traces of dragons appeared? Are there really dragons?"

Feng Jinlin smiled and said: "I don't know whether there are really dragons, but there are definitely good things in this sea area. However, the sea is too dangerous and there are too many forces involved. We, the Fengying Mercenary Corps, will not take this risk. You too, it's not worth it. If one of you has advanced to the Yuandan realm, you can take the risk and go over to have a look."

As for now, Feng Jinlin thought it would be better to go to bed.

Although Feng Ming loved to watch the excitement, he also knew that his father was right. The sea was different from the land. If you encountered danger, you would not know where to escape.

Moreover, those pirates were more vicious than the cultivators on land.

Feng Ming said, "Then let's find a nearby land to see if we can watch the excitement?"

Feng Jinlin saw that his two sons had listened to his words. He had made such a small request, so he said, "Okay, when the time comes, I will take you there to watch. If there is excitement, watch it, and if not, come back."

Bai Qiaomo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After digesting this information, he left with Feng Ming.

Feng Ming asked excitedly, "Are there really dragons? Brother Bai, have you ever seen a dragon before?"

Bai Qiaomo nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen a dragon. Brother Ming, you don't know that outside the Fenghong Continent, when the wild beasts reach the Soul-Awakening Realm, they can transform into human form and practice like human cultivators. Their offspring, even if they are weaker, are different from wild beasts and are born with good intelligence. Therefore, outside the Feihong Continent, there are many races that, like the dragon race, have enclosed special territories, and their offspring will live in their clan territories."

"Usually, such wild beasts are no longer called wild beasts, but are called demons and demon cultivators. They are not much different from us cultivators, except that they have beast forms in addition to human forms."

It turns out that there are demons and demon cultivators. Feng Ming feels that it can be linked to the legends of his previous life. He thinks that the little black turtle he raised is actually quite smart, except for being a little greedy. It can understand everything when communicating with it.

At this moment, the black crystal turtle is clinging to Feng Ming's shoulder, shaking its head and listening to Bai Qiaomo talking about the demons.

It is now much bigger than when it was in the Nether Valley. It has eaten a lot of good things, and there must be some results.

At this moment, it is lying on Feng Ming's shoulder, like a glass epaulette.

Feng Ming asked curiously, "What about our Feihong Continent? Are there no wild beasts that have reached the soul-opening realm? Have they transformed into human form?"

Bai Qiaomo confirmed Feng Ming's question, "Yes, but their existence is almost unknown to outsiders."

"Why?" Feng Ming thought about it. He did not see any relevant records in the travel books he had read.

He once thought that this world had its own rules, and beasts were beasts, and it was difficult for beasts to become spirits. Now he knows that things are not as he thought.

Feng Ming suddenly thought of a possibility: "Could it be that these wild beasts in the Soul-awakening Realm are controlled by the three great dynasties and Shengyuan Sect?"

Bai Qiaomo smiled and said, "It is indeed as Brother Ming thought, but there are not many wild beasts that have reached this level of strength, and most of them live in the vast sea area surrounding Shengyuan Sect's territory. Shengyuan Sect has the smallest territory, but it controls a large area of ​​sea and some islands. The resources obtained from this sea area are enough to support the cultivators of Shengyuan Sect."

"The Shengyuan Sect has a tradition called the Beast Taming Technique. The Shengyuan Sect uses the Beast Taming Technique to control a number of powerful wild beasts. This Beast Taming Technique should come from outside the Feihong Continent. It is very different from the beast taming techniques commonly used in our continent. They can forcibly brand wild beasts and drive them to fight for them. There are even some shady methods."

Feng Ming was surprised. This Beast Taming Technique of the Shengyuan Sect It doesn't sound good at all: "What kind of shady method is this?"

Bai Qiaomo lowered his voice and said: "The Shengyuan Sect is very powerful. There are a few immortal old people in the sect who have lived for many years and have exceeded their actual lifespan. I have suspected before that their situation may be related to their beast-controlling skills."

Feng Ming was surprised: "Could it be that they obtained their lifespan from the wild beasts?"

"Obtain? Plunder is more appropriate."

The Black Crystal Turtle looked shocked when he heard this, and circles appeared in his little eyes. There were actually cultivators who treated them, the beasts, like this?

Feng Ming sighed, "Why do I feel that these three dynasties and Shengyuan Sect are not good things?"

Bai Qiaomo smiled. Brother Ming was right. They were indeed not good things. He had suffered a lot in his previous life, so he kept a distance from these four parties.

Later, he was lucky and found another way to leave Feihong Continent. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to get rid of these four forces.

Feng Ming also thought of this and asked, "Then how did you leave before?"

Bai Qiaomo flipped out a not very detailed map of the entire continent, pointed to a place in the far north, and said, "There is a road here."

Feng Ming raised his thumb and praised him. He is worthy of being the protagonist. His luck is really good.

With this confidence, they don't have to be restrained when facing the Dynasty and Shengyuan Sect.

***

Feng Ming stayed at his father's place, but he didn't hang out all day. In addition to daily practice, he also made pills, and he would bring He Shu with him when making pills.

In the past, He Shu taught him how to make pills, but now it's the other way around, Feng Ming is making pills, and He Shu is watching from the side, asking questions from time to time.

This had no effect on Feng Mingsi, and he still made furnaces of top-grade pills.

Feng Ming wanted to take advantage of his father's stay to leave more pills for his father.

After refining a batch of pills, He Shu excitedly held the pills out of the furnace and said, "This is a fourth-grade pill. Ming'er's medicine refining skills are getting higher and higher. It's just a matter of time before he becomes a fifth-grade pharmacist."

The fourth-grade pills that Feng Ming refined were not ordinary fourth-grade pills. Ordinary fourth-grade pharmacists might not be able to refine them.

Although Feng Ming's furnace was not full of top-grade pills, he also produced two top-grade pills, and the rest were all top-grade. Feng

Ming proudly puffed out his chest and said, "That's right, let alone fifth-grade pills, sixth-grade pills are also possible."

He Shu laughed. In the past, he would have thought that Feng Ming was exaggerating.

But now he didn't think so at all. He also felt that Feng Ming's future achievements would not be limited to the fifth-grade pills.

Feng Ming added: "So Uncle He, you have to work harder too. You have to be at least a fourth-grade alchemist to be considered acceptable. Uncle He was taught by me, the future sixth-grade alchemist."

He Shu didn't know whether to cry or laugh. The two children were asking him for something. If he couldn't do it, wouldn't it be a disgrace to Feng Ming?

Thinking about it, it seemed to make sense. He Shu had to say, "Okay, Uncle He will work hard and try not to embarrass Ming'er."

He Shu was not only working hard to learn and improve his alchemy skills, but also helping Fengying Mercenary Corps to train apprentices.

There was no master-apprentice relationship between him and Feng Ming, but after coming to Chiri City and becoming a third-grade alchemist, he actually accepted two apprentices and anonymous disciples.

Although these people were not as talented as Feng Ming, He Shu also taught them very attentively.

In his early years, he himself did not meet the conditions for entering the sect because of his lack of talent, and his disciples were in a similar situation.

But as long as they are willing to work hard, it would be great if they could achieve his achievements in the future.

Although Feng Ming seemed to have become a fourth-grade alchemist easily, He Shu knew that it would be very difficult to achieve such an achievement without the guidance of the predecessors. He had been struggling with the second-grade alchemist for a long time.

He Shu also quietly told Feng Ming a piece of news, the truth of which was unknown: "The dynasty actually has no shortage of high-level pharmacists of its own, and there has never been a shortage of them. Some people say that it is because the dynasty has a rare treasure called the Soul Stone that is very helpful in improving soul power. It can help pharmacists, array masters and other magicians improve their soul power."

Feng Ming was surprised and said, "Is there really such a good thing?"

He Shu said, "I've thought about it. Maybe there is, but the quantity of such things must be very rare and will not flow out. As long as they are in their own hands, it will become an exclusive treasure, their magic weapon for victory. You see, no matter how deep the foundation of those aristocratic families is, they cannot surpass the royal family in this aspect."

Feng Ming nodded. It was indeed so. Where are the best pharmacists, array masters, talisman masters and weapon masters?

It is not in the aristocratic family, nor in the Sihong Academy, but in the imperial dynasty and Shengyuan Sect. Perhaps this is related to the inheritance of the master they master, but it does not rule out the use of external objects.

He Shu was worried that Feng Ming would act rashly: "Uncle He only said this to you, but don't try to hit them. The reason I said this is because this thing has appeared in the ruins and mansions, so you and Bai Qiaomo can pay attention to this aspect when you are training outside, so as not to miss it because you don't know it when you encounter a good thing."

Feng Ming nodded: "I know, thank you Uncle He, if I really find this good thing, I will bring it back for Uncle He to use."

He Shu smiled. He didn't expect it, but he hoped that Feng Ming could do better. He watched this child grow up.

Feng Ming shared this with Bai Qiaomo when he returned. He believed that Bai Qiaomo must know more.

Bai Qiaomo was surprised that He Shu knew about the Soul Stone. After all, no matter how he looked at it before, He Shu had only been in a small place like Qingyun City, and it was difficult for him to come into contact with such things. But He Shu knew about it.

Thinking about the powerful laxative that He Shu taught Feng Ming, it was not difficult for Bai Qiaomo to understand. He Shu's low achievements did not mean that he had never obtained good things.

Bai Qiaomo affirmed, "Yes, there is such a thing as soul stone. This thing can not only help alchemists and other magicians improve their soul power, but more importantly, it can help cultivators advance to the Soul Opening Realm. In places outside Feihong Continent with better cultivation environments, the reason why there are so many cultivators above the Soul Opening Realm is that soul stones are one of the factors."

"If cultivators want to go higher, both their Yuanli cultivation and soul power strength are indispensable. However, the highest cultivators in Feihong Continent can only reach the Soul Opening Realm, so ordinary cultivators don't pay much attention to this aspect."

"But the soul stones in Feihong Continent are very rare. I suspect that the limited soul stones in the hands of the three great dynasties and Shengyuan Sect are actually imported from outside. This thing is not produced in the local area."

Feng Ming said, "I see, but after hearing this, I want to see it more."

Bai Qiaomo rubbed Feng Ming's head and smiled. He was not worried that Feng Ming would act rashly because of this. Feng Ming was not that kind of person.

If there was a chance, he would also like to get some of this good stuff from the three great royal families and Shengyuan Sect.
