Chapter 2333 - 2332: Abundant Harvest
The old man waved his hand, and those holding bows and arrows pointed at Ling Feng immediately lowered them.
Then, the old man respectfully said, "Since you are part of the Jungle Tribe, we are of the same lineage. Please feel free to sit in our camp for a while."
"Alright!"
Ling Feng nodded and followed along.
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu quickly followed him.
The group passed through the ruins and walked some distance into the woods, soon seeing a stockade made with large logs as its fence.
These logs were several tens of centimeters in diameter, very thick, making the constructed fence quite sturdy.
This should be enough to ward off some of the fierce beasts from the Dark Forest.
After entering the camp and observing the surroundings, Ling Feng noticed the place wasn’t large, only about one-tenth the size of Ling Family Village.
It’s understandable though, since having too large a camp in such a dangerous environment would only add to the defensive burden.
In the center of the camp was a small open space, and the old man gestured with his hand: "Please have a seat."
"No need for formalities, I know you’re in a hurry, and we don’t want to waste too much time here either."
Ling Feng said, taking out a box from the Space-capturing Mirror, and then opened the lid: "Take a look, this is one of them."
"Oh...."
The old man’s eyes immediately lit up!
Ling Feng remained calm, but felt a burst of joy in his heart.
It was apparent that the old man was very interested in these items!
He was trembling with excitement!
Though he didn’t know why, Ling Feng didn’t mind, thinking that as long as the old man cared, he could raise the stakes accordingly.
Sure enough, the old man looked up excitedly: "May I ask, how many of these items do you have?"
"There are quite a few, more than twenty boxes altogether, with various everyday items!"
Ling Feng said, then quickly changed the topic: "By the way, what is the reward you mentioned?"
"We don’t have anything special here, the only thing worth mentioning is this kind of stone."
The old man said this, gave a look to someone beside him, and that person took out a shiny, egg-sized crystal from his pocket.
Seeing this item, Ling Feng, Xiao Xiao, and Mu Mu all gasped!
This was indeed a crystal containing Xuan Qi!
So the three of them were stunned.
Ling Feng didn’t expect them to offer such an item, so he looked up and asked: "Old man, do you know what this is?"
"Yes, it’s a Mystical Spirit Stone, containing a high concentration of Xuan Qi, which can grant someone immense power," the old man said.
"Since you know, how can you bear to give it to us?" Ling Feng asked.
"It’s a great item, but useless if we can’t use it. Keeping it is pointless if we’re not giving it away!"
The old man added, "Don’t you understand, under the Dragon Clan’s deterrence, no one dares to absorb the Xuan Qi from it."
"Understood, I see now."
Ling Feng smiled and continued, "Old man, do you have many such Mystical Spirit Stones? If they are useless to you, could you give them all to me?"
"What do you want them for?" the old man asked.
"For collection. I like collecting!" Ling Feng replied with a smile.
"Oh..."
The old man hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, we don’t have many here, only about a dozen pieces. If you want more, I can tell you where to find them!"
"Alright!"
Ling Feng’s eyes sparkled upon hearing this, nearly jumping up.
Although he already had quite a bit, for Ling Feng, the more of these things, the better!
So he immediately took out those useless containers, filling the open space quickly.
The old man’s eyes also sparkled, his hands trembling.
"The Mystical Spirit Stones you’re looking for are to the north, about a day’s travel away, where there’s a rift!" the old man said.
"Thank you!"
Ling Feng nodded.
The three of them didn’t stay long and quickly left.
However, they didn’t head towards the rift mentioned by the old man, but first returned to the mountainside.
The Mystical Spirit Stones needed to be collected, and the Hidden Dragon Technique needed practice; neither could be neglected.
So in the following time, Ling Feng and the others started advancing to the third level of the Hidden Dragon Technique within the mountainside.
...
...
Time passed leisurely, and after two days, Ling Feng was the first to achieve the goal.
Then he waited for a while for Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu, who also broke through a day later.
With the Hidden Dragon Technique mastered, all three felt transformed.
Aerial Flight was something both Ling Feng, Xiao Xiao, and Mu Mu had always dreamed of.
When Ling Feng was on Earth, no matter how strong he was, he had never experienced flying freely in the air.
Now that he had mastered the Hidden Dragon Technique, he could finally savor that feeling.
One should know that flying by oneself is completely different from flying on the Ghost Dragon!
But Ling Feng didn’t go out to try it right away; instead, he patiently waited for Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu to break through completely before they left the mountainside together.
Then, standing at the cave entrance, the three exchanged glances and leapt into midair.
The Xuan Qi in their bodies circulated rapidly, and as Ling Feng and the others traversed and spun through the air, they couldn’t help but burst into cheers!
After quite a while, they excitedly returned to the ground.
Having just learned to fly, they actually hadn’t had enough, but there were still things to be done, and it was not yet the time to play freely.
Back in the cave, looking at the patterns on the cave wall, Ling Feng sighed: "I hope our choice is not wrong."
"Hmm, it shouldn’t be!"
Xiao Xiao said, then hit the cave wall with a palm strike!
"Boom!"
A shockwave struck the cave wall and immediately spread.
Following that, many stone fragments fell, revealing a layer of shiny crystal!
"My gosh!"
Ling Feng and the others were all stunned!
The density of the Crystal Stone was immense, much more than that on the cave ceiling before!
After exchanging glances, Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu let out a cheer and rushed forward.
Ling Feng followed with a smile, and they temporarily set everything else aside to focus on collecting the crystals.
They worked for a long time, collecting all the crystals from the surrounding cave walls, and Ling Feng’s Space-capturing Mirror now held over two thousand Mystical Spirit Stones.
Rich with rewards, Ling Feng no longer worried about running out of Mystical Spirit Stones, but he still opted to take Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu to the rift mentioned by the Dark Clan elder.
The more Mystical Spirit Stones, the more warriors above the Core Formation Realm would be at their disposal, increasing their confidence in defeating the Dragon Clan.
The three flew with the Sky Command, covering what the old man said was a day’s journey in just one hour!
Amidst the forest below, a pitch-black fault appeared in front of them, and Ling Feng and the others promptly lowered their altitude, then landed on the ground.
