Big Data Cultivation-Chapter 1276 Testing
Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276 Testing
Feng Jun didn’t really want to answer this question, so he vaguely replied, "Hmm, you don’t need to ask more."
But then, Kong Ziyi also asked, and he couldn’t avoid it.
In fact, he went out to evade the Yin Spirits, but for two consecutive days, he mainly avoided Kong Ziyi.
In Kong Ziyi’s eyes, the three from Good Scenery were his people. She also knew clearly that these three people’s origins were not very proper and could disappear at any time, but it was better for this process of disappearance to be somewhat vague.
So he stated, "There were some issues at the sect, and the three of them had to go back to handle it, and they won’t return anytime soon."
After his response was known by the Yin Spirits, the Big Boss even came to his mind specifically to find him, "Are you not trusting me?"
Since it asked like this, Feng Jun could only straightforwardly say, "Why involve others in our grievances?"
But the Yin Spirit bluntly uncovered his intention, "Those two martial cultivation guys did not make you so concerned. It seems you still feel somewhat alienated from this world."
It was referring to Jing Qingyang and Chen Junwei, whom Feng Jun did not dismiss as well.
Feng Jun replied indifferently, "It’s hard to part with homeland; this is how worldly affairs should be, isn’t it?"
The good thing about the mobile phone dimension is that if you have your own persistence and it aligns with certain moral cognition, generally people won’t hold it against you, and neither would the Yin Spirits, though it still somewhat discontentedly remarked, "You seem very confident in yourself?"
Feng Jun didn’t argue with it, simply smiled and replied, "Our first cooperation, the relationship itself is unstable, speaking in such a manner... does it really help the cooperation?"
Yet, the Yin Spirit dismissively stated, "My question was initially a test, and now it seems my feeling was right, you really have a trump card against me... at least you think, you can handle me."
Feng Jun laughed at this, "It’s just cooperation, why spell it out so clearly?"
"Thinking like this is incorrect," the Yin Spirit solemnly stated, "You have the ability to deal with me, and I also have the ability to deal with you, this is the foundation of cooperation. Without equal strength, talking about cooperation is just fooling around."
It seems that in observing Feng Jun, it also learned quite a bit of fashionable language.
Next, Feng Jun informed Kong Ziyi that he planned to go to the Bewildering Soul Forest for a visit, asking if she would like to go.
Kong Ziyi said she hadn’t been to the Bewildering Soul Forest yet, and then she asked if Senior Sister would go.
An Yuhong felt that the cultivation effect in the Thunder Field was very good, and she was reluctant to leave. Kong Ziyi told her, "You might as well stay here. When we go to a new place, we’ll tell you the location."
So, the two masters and four attendants boarded the flying boat and headed straight for the Bewildering Soul Forest.
The range of the Bewildering Soul Forest is quite vast, with an area of hundreds of millions of miles, not only containing wild beasts but also a double-digit number of Golden Core Demon Beasts.
At the edge of the forest, mighty cultivators once set a prohibition, forbidding Golden Core Stage cultivators from entering or leaving. Golden Core Masters cannot enter the Bewildering Soul Forest, and Golden Core Demon Beasts cannot exit the forest.
However, if a real master truly wants to enter or exit, it is not impossible. Several places resisting the beast tides are at the entrance of the Bewildering Soul Forest, where Golden Cores are not forbidden.
Feng Jun and his group, going to the Bewildering Soul Forest, naturally did not need to find specific Fang Markets; they could go to the real border.
These border areas are guarded by not weak dustless clans because there are so many good things inside the Bewildering Soul Forest, not to mention those Spirit Beasts and wild beasts, which, although dangerous, are also quite valuable.
According to the Yin Spirits’ instructions, Feng Jun arrived at a town called Feng Ge to inquire about the nearby situation.
The two of them are both masters with extraordinary demeanor, accompanied by attendants. However, when they inquired about the news, the locals shook their heads in fear and then scattered away, completely ignoring any notions of "disrespecting the masters."
Feng Jun wanted to find the Tiantong Commerce Alliance in the local area to learn some related news, but he couldn’t find Tiantong anywhere in the town.
Somewhat courageous residents told the two that there was no Tiantong in the town. To go to Tiantong, they had to go to the Fang Market.
This place is sparsely populated, and the nearest Fang Market is ten thousand miles away.
Neither Feng Jun nor Kong Ziyi were the kinds to oppress the good, though they did not quite grasp the local situation, they wouldn’t fuss with the residents. The two agreed to rest here for the night and head to the nearby Fang Market the next day to ask about what’s going on here.
Since they didn’t know what was going on, they wouldn’t stay in the town. Feng Jun set out his residence, inviting Kong Ziyi to stay over—although it was not very appropriate for men and women to live together, it was convenient for nearby assistance.
This time, Kong Ziyi didn’t take out her own residence—hers was a bit luxurious. The title of Taiqing’s master might be intimidating, but here on the edge of the Bewildering Soul Forest, villains are everywhere.
Sure enough, as soon as Feng Jun set out his residence, countless pairs of eyes instantly appeared around.
At this moment, Feng Jun wouldn’t hold back, directly releasing pressure close to the high tier of dustless, sweeping it around.
Such a strong Divine Sense burst out, scaring the cultivators coming around to flee in all directions—they were not to be trifled with.
However, there are those who don’t hesitate, even though they are only at the High Tier of Qi Refinement, relying on a Magic Artifact to protect their Soul, they bravely withstand the pressure and ask loudly, "May I ask which esteemed senior has arrived?"
"Get lost!" Kong Ziyi shouted sharply, her Divine Sense struck heavily, "Summon your master here!"
This was not her being arrogant, but rather the other party being excessively rude.
A cultivation abode appearing in the wilderness is ninety percent likely to house a senior, and Feng Jun had already displayed the Divine Sense of a senior. In such a circumstance, how can a mere Qi Refinement Cultivator dare to speak out? Who can tolerate that?
Even if the person has a powerful figure backing them, Feng Jun absolutely cannot show weakness, and Kong Ziyi even more so—seniors of the Four Great Sects cannot be insulted like this.
The Qi Refinement cultivator immediately collapsed to the ground, blood streaming from his orifices. If not nurtured for a year or so, he will definitely not recover.
The companion behind him, a Qi Refining Sixth Layer cultivator, was so frightened that he froze in place, and immediately thereafter, a tremendous pressure loomed overhead.
He hopes he can withstand the pressure, but unfortunately, the next moment, his body slammed heavily onto the ground.
He did not know how long had passed, but he felt light upon his body, yet this time, he dared not stand up directly but knelt on one knee, "My companion was ignorant and spoke rudely, I beg the senior’s forgiveness."
The surroundings were still silent, and after a long time, only did someone snort softly by his ear, "Considering it’s your first offense, I spare both of you your lives. Remember, there won’t be a next time."
This person continuously cupped his hands, then embraced his companion, retreating step by step.
Kong Ziyi couldn’t help but glance at Feng Jun, "These people... are somewhat arrogant."
Feng Jun smiled slightly, "My defensive formation isn’t weak; I suppose tonight won’t be peaceful. You should rest first."
"I’ll first contact my fellow disciples," Kong Ziyi sneered, "We’re not leaving tomorrow, lest they think we’re afraid."
Don’t be fooled by her usual agreeable demeanor, once she gets serious, she can be quite stubborn.
Feng Jun originally didn’t want to create tension with the locals, but since Kong Ziyi wanted to be serious, he accompanied her thoroughly—once they establish some reputation here, it will make their actions less constrained.
Although strangely, no one came that night.
The next morning, there were no idle people around either; it seems the locals already knew these people are not easily provoked.
By noon, finally a group of people arrived, headed by a person at Initial Stage of Transcendence, followed by seven or eight High Tier of Qi Refinement cultivators, and a Mid-stage Qi Refinining Martial Enlightened cultivator—he guarded at the back, hovering barely half a person’s height above the ground.
This height indicates little hostility, just notifying the other party, we have people who can fly here.
The leading cultivator came to the courtyard gate and spoke loudly, "Fang Market Loose Cultivator Fang Wenping, paying respects to the friends in the abode, can I ask where you come from and if you have time to meet?"
The gate opened lightly, and a female Qi Refinement High-tier cultivator along with a male Qi Refining First Layer cultivator walked out.
Fang Wenping did not flare up, but inwardly marked it down: A senior like me came to visit, and you send Qi Refinement cultivators to receive me... How is this any better than those two from yesterday?
However, this matter is not urgent, we can take our time.
But the next moment, the female cultivator raised her hand, revealing an Imperial Token, "Disciple of Taiqing greeting the senior, my uncle invites the senior inside, other idle folks may be excused."
"Disciple of Taiqing?" Fang Wenping was first surprised, then a broad smile appeared on his face, "Ah, it turns out to be a High Disciple of Taiqing visiting, Fang was remiss in not welcoming you from afar, please excuse me."
Upon saying this, he turned to a Qi Refining Eighth Layer man, received a Storage Bag from him, and instructed, "You wait five miles away... do not let idle people near."
The man hesitated a bit, giving him a look: Isn’t this Taiqing disciple possibly a fake?
Fang Wenping patted his shoulder twice, spoke in a not very loud voice, which could faintly be heard within the courtyard, "Taiqing’s Divination stands unrivaled among the Four Great Sects, who dares impersonate a Taiqing disciple?"
Then he turned with a happy face and walked into the courtyard.
In the courtyard stood Feng Jun and Kong Ziyi, meeting them, they raised their hand to cup respectfully, "Loose Cultivator Feng Jun (Taiqing Kong Ziyi) greets Fang Daoist."
Fang Wenping saw that there were two seniors, he was slightly surprised, but once he realized the higher Cultivation Level belongs to Taiqing’s Kong Ziyi, his doubts were eased—this one should be the principal.
His visit was prepared with both hard and soft tactics, upon discovering the other is a Taiqing disciple, the tough approach was unnecessary, so he opened the Storage Bag and produced ten plump armored Spirit Beasts, "This is a small token of appreciation, consider it a meeting gift."
"Qilin Pine Squirrel?" Kong Ziyi was discerning, her eyebrows raised, "Quite a rare delicacy, a single Qilin Pine Squirrel in Taiqing must sell for no less than a hundred Spirit Stones, especially when so large... This item is too precious, it is not appropriate for us to accept."
The distinguished core disciple of Taiqing disdains taking such small advantages.
