After entering the spatial wormhole, Han Feng led Zi Yan to the bow of the ship. The two of them, one big and one small, stood there like that.
"Has the sensation changed?"
"It seems clearer."
Zi Yan pursed her lips, her expression unusually serious.
In her heart, she had always wanted to meet her own kind.
Han Feng glanced at Zi Yan. "If you want to go, I can send you there later."
"Mm."
Zi Yan nodded.
"But you have to be mentally prepared."
"Ah? Why?"
"Because once you return to your clan, the burden on you will be different," Han Feng said.
"Someone will tell you about these things later."
"Tch, so mysterious."
Zi Yan pouted.
Han Feng smiled lightly and controlled the treasure ship to accelerate. Seeing this, Zi Yan also lent a hand.
Three days later, the group arrived smoothly in the Central Region.
The landing point was a city under the rule of the Burning Flame Valley.
Han Feng found a place to rest and studied the next route.
The Everlasting Mountain Range in the Eastern Region was the closest route to the Gu Clan in a straight line. Last time, the elder of the Gold Swallowing Mouse clan had invited Han Feng to explore for treasures together, but Han Feng declined because he was looking for Yao Chen.
He wondered if the earth-attribute spiritual object there had been taken away by the people of the Myriad Sword Pavilion.
Han Feng circled the location of the mountain range on the map.
The Everlasting Mountain Range happened to be on the way.
He could look carefully when passing by. Not much time had passed since the secret realm there was exposed. With Zi Yan by his side, maybe he could find something that slipped through the net.
Early the next morning, the four set off again.
About five days later, Han Feng and the others arrived at the boundary of the Eastern Region of the Central Plains.
Arriving in the Eastern Region meant they were close to the Gu Clan.
Approaching her hometown, Gu Xun'er was not particularly happy, but rather somewhat melancholic and reluctant.
Mr. Han's speed was too fast. Before she could even savor the beauty of the journey, it was about to end.
Although it saved time, Gu Xun'er was not in a hurry.
Stealing a glance at Han Feng's profile, Gu Xun'er sighed helplessly.
"Xun'er, I plan to stay in the Everlasting Mountain Range for two days. If you're not in a hurry..."
Han Feng turned his head and said to Gu Xun'er.
Before he could finish, he heard Gu Xun'er rush to answer, "Not in a hurry!"
"Mr. Han, take your time."
Han Feng raised his eyebrows. Why did this girl seem a little excited?
"Alright then, let's go find the way inside the mountain range first."
Han Feng nodded, thinking that Xun'er might be timid about returning home.
Just like he was back then.
Arriving at the Everlasting Mountain Range, it looked the same from the outside at first, but the further they flew inside, the traces of battle along the way became mottled and chaotic, messing up the mountain range here and there.
The most conspicuous was a sword light that cut through three mountain ridges. Even now, it still exuded a rich sword might.
This was the artistic conception law that only Dou Venerate experts possessed.
It should have been left by that old man from the Myriad Sword Pavilion.
"Zi Yan, there are treasures down here. It's up to you now."
"Let's agree first, fifty-fifty split!"
"Deal."
Han Feng laughed.
Zi Yan nodded with satisfaction, then spread her Dou Qi wings and jumped down.
"Mr. Han, are we also going to look for treasures?"
Gu Xun'er asked curiously.
She didn't know how strong Zi Yan's treasure hunting ability was yet; one person was worth hundreds.
"Let's go look at that mountain peak ahead."
In Han Feng's memory, a very distinctive mountain peak was the location where the secret realm opened.
Although the best time had passed, the place where the earth-attribute spiritual object was nurtured must have abundant earth element energy itself.
This could be considered a small tonic for the Green Lotus Core Flame.
After searching for a while, Han Feng finally found that mountain peak. He put away the conspicuous treasure ship and landed with the two girls.
As soon as he landed, Han Feng felt the earth qi under his feet drilling into his body.
Lin Xian'er and Gu Xun'er had the same feeling. The two girls quickly used means to prevent this energy from invading.
Inside Han Feng's body, the Green Lotus Core Flame burned, absorbing the earth element power invading his body.
"Something's wrong."
Han Feng put his hands on the shoulders of the two girls, spreading the Green Lotus Core Flame to protect them.
So much time had passed, logically the power of the earth element shouldn't be so strong.
Could it be that... the earth-attribute spiritual object was still hidden in the mountain body beneath their feet?
Han Feng immediately took the two girls into the air, then slapped the mountain body with his palm.
Boom!
Powerful Dou Qi bombarded the rock. Han Feng used the force of a four-star Dou Venerate in a standard manner, wanting to crack the mountain body directly.
However, an unexpected situation occurred. Under Han Feng's attack, the mountain body only shook slightly, and not even a boulder fell.
Seeing this scene, Han Feng was extremely surprised.
His Dou Qi at the four-star Dou Venerate realm actually didn't even break its defense?
Obviously, in his previous life, this earth-attribute spiritual object only had the strength of a three-star Dou Venerate or so.
With a thought, Han Feng's soul power surged from his spiritual platform, transforming into a giant palm and slapping the mountain body.
Boom!
This ordinary palm strike was comparable to the full-strength strike of a six-star Dou Venerate. The mountain body finally collapsed, and yellowish-brown Dou Qi surged out wildly.
Han Feng summoned the Green Lotus Core Flame, transforming it into a huge green lotus, hanging upside down above the mountain body, absorbing all the overflowing earth energy.
But only a dozen seconds later, the mountain body actually began to repair itself automatically, and the earth qi within a few miles was gathering here.
So that's it!
This earth-attribute spiritual object used this blank period to condense earth qi and strengthen its defense, turning the mountain body into a natural earth qi storage, which was why even the force of a four-star Dou Venerate couldn't break it.
"Venerate Sword, oh Venerate Sword, I gave you the chance, but you didn't cherish it."
A smile appeared on Han Feng's lips.
Since that's the case, he wouldn't be polite with this treasure.
Han Feng condensed his soul power, this time increasing the power to the seven-star Dou Venerate realm.
Boom!
With a palm strike, the mountain body completely collapsed. A ball of yellowish-brown energy body flew out close to the ground with a swish, quickly fleeing into the distance.
Han Feng immediately condensed his five fingers into a palm and slapped down fiercely.
Heaven Origin Palm!
Five Fingers Define the Universe!
Buzz!
A white light circle spread rapidly, forming an embryonic Universe Domain around it.
The earth-attribute spiritual object was frozen by the Universe Domain, and its speed slowed down instantly.
Han Feng threw out a puppet and let it pick up the earth-attribute spiritual object.
However, the moment it touched the spiritual object, the puppet's arm was wrapped in a ball of yellowish-brown energy. Then, only the sound of cracking was heard, and the puppet's steel arm was twisted into a twist.
The yellowish-brown energy continued to spread towards the puppet's core. At this time, it was too late for the puppet to escape. Its feet were firmly grasped by the earth qi, and it could only watch helplessly as it was swallowed by the earth-attribute spiritual object.
"As expected of the Living Soil. Under the Universe Domain, it can still have such power."
Han Feng marveled.
Although in his previous life, with the help of the Mysterious Yellow Flame, he became the master of the Living Soil.
But seeing the Living Soil activate its ability again in this life, he still felt shocked.
The Living Soil was known as living earth, capable of growing on its own. Under normal conditions, it would absorb the power of heaven and earth to strengthen itself.
In its offensive form, it could devour all things in the world, compress and assimilate them, turning them into its own nutrients.
Fortunately, the puppet released just now was only a Dou King, otherwise it would have been a big loss.
Han Feng pondered how to subdue this dangerous earth-attribute spiritual object.
He wondered if the Green Lotus Core Flame was qualified.
He carefully separated a small ball of Green Lotus Core Flame and approached the Living Soil to see if the two could merge.
Although the Green Lotus Core Flame had grown a lot in Han Feng's hands, it was still young compared to this Living Soil.
He saw the Living Soil suddenly expand, as if to swallow it in one bite. The Green Lotus Core Flame trembled slightly and immediately retracted.
Fortunately, in the Universe Domain, the Living Soil moved slowly, otherwise that small ball of Green Lotus Core Flame would probably have gone and never returned.
"Sure enough, it doesn't work?"
Unlike the Mysterious Yellow Flame, the Green Lotus Core Flame was not a flame that completely controlled the earth. It also had other various effects, so its single ability was weaker.
Perhaps it was precisely because its ability was biased and not specialized enough that the Living Soil didn't fancy it.
Of course, the most important thing was that the Green Lotus Core Flame's growth degree was not enough now, and its strength was not as strong as the Living Soil, otherwise it could also force itself on it and forcibly combine with it.
Han Feng looked at the earth-attribute spiritual object in the domain. The commotion of its violent struggle was already making Han Feng's palm ache slightly.
Don't look at this small ball; its strength was really not small.
After another stalemate for a while, Han Feng sighed.
If there really was no way to subdue it, he could only seal it.
Wait until he subdued the Mysterious Yellow Flame to solve it.
Just as Han Feng was preparing to cast a sealing technique, he suddenly sensed the Basalt turtle shell in his storage ring trembling slightly.
Han Feng quickly took out this collection placed in the corner.
The moment the Basalt turtle shell appeared, the Living Soil stopped moving.
It shrank quietly in place, completely different from when it faced the Green Lotus Core Flame just now.
The corners of Han Feng's mouth curled up.
It seems everything has its vanquisher.
This ancient collection was useful now.
Although Basalt governed water, it also had a crushing deterrent force in terms of earth attribute.
Han Feng gently covered the Living Soil with the turtle shell. Yellowish-brown light flickered gently. A moment later, the Living Soil melted into the turtle shell.
When he picked up the Basalt turtle shell again, Han Feng found that the Living Soil had been subdued by it.
The Sea Heart Flame surged in Han Feng's hand. With the help of this water Heavenly Flame, he circulated the contents of the "Basalt Heavenly Ancestor Sutra."
As the Ancestor Sutra activated, the characters on the turtle shell lit up with a faint light.
The Living Soil was also mobilized by Han Feng with the help of the turtle shell.
Holding the Living Soil in his hand, Han Feng gently smashed it on the ground, and a mountain body cracked immediately.
This power!
Han Feng didn't even use much strength. The weight of the Living Soil alone was enough.
"Old friend, you really are disobedient."
Han Feng smiled helplessly.
Controlling the Living Soil was a gradual process. Now this spiritual object obviously didn't cooperate with him.
If used against an enemy, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause.
Putting the Living Soil into the turtle shell, Han Feng returned to a safe place.
"Master, did you succeed?"
"Mm."
"Congratulations, Mr. Han."
Gu Xun'er congratulated.
Gu Xun'er had read about that earth-attribute spiritual object in ancient books. It was called Living Soil, an ancient spiritual object.
Even in the Gu Clan, there was no Living Soil. It was said that the Shi Clan had a lump.
Living Soil was not of much use for boosting long-range Dou Skills, but if used in conjunction with physical techniques, the power would be greatly increased.
The Shi Clan was famous for its physical techniques and physical bodies. In their hands, Living Soil was like a divine object.
Han Feng smiled and was about to say something when his soul power suddenly moved.
He sensed a few people flying from a distance, seemingly to gather intelligence.
Han Feng immediately took the two girls into the void and hid.
A moment later, two Dou Emperors flew quickly from a distance. They came to the mountain peak where the Living Soil was hidden, looked around, and were stunned on the spot.
Where's the mountain?
Where is my huge mountain?
With the commotion just now, could it be that the Living Soil has already been snatched away?
The hearts of the two Dou Emperors belonging to the Myriad Sword Pavilion tightened.
They were ordered to guard here. Because the Living Soil was too dangerous, they guarded the periphery.
Han Feng flew too quietly and too fast, plus he used the breath concealment technique, so the two did not notice.
It wasn't until Han Feng slapped the mountain to take the soil, causing a huge commotion, that they realized something was wrong.
It's over!
If the Pavilion Master finds out that they lost such a big mountain, do they still have a future?
In the void, Han Feng glanced at the two Dou Emperors outside.
The clothes on the two had the logo of the Myriad Sword Pavilion. They should be people from the Myriad Sword Pavilion.
It seemed that Venerate Sword had not given up and wanted to find a way to take the Living Soil. Unfortunately, he had already been intercepted by him.
This time, Han Feng did not intend to expose himself. He flashed to Zi Yan, who was picking up treasures in the mountain, grabbed her shoulder, and then flew out of the mountain.
"Han Feng, what are you doing?"
Zi Yan shouted.
"I haven't finished picking yet!"
"This time it all belongs to you."
"Ah?"
Zi Yan's eyes widened.
"So generous?"
"Wait, you still have to help me refine pills, right?"
Han Feng nodded.
Only then did Zi Yan breathe a sigh of relief, and then happily counted the harvest this time.
Although she found some treasures, this time was too hasty, and she didn't enjoy herself to the fullest.
She must come again in the future!
After Han Feng flew away from the Everlasting Mountain Range, he landed in a nearby city.
Anyway, they were already in the Eastern Region, so they could slowly make their way to the Gu Clan.
The Gu Clan was a hegemonic force in the Eastern Region. Almost half of the Eastern Region was subordinate to the Gu Clan.
This was why Gu Xun'er felt urgent as soon as she arrived in the Eastern Region, because she was almost at her doorstep.
In the center of the Eastern Region, there was a city called Ancient Saint City, which was the entrance to the Gu Clan.
Many cities in the Eastern Region, regardless of size, as long as they had spatial wormholes, could generally reach the vicinity of Ancient Saint City directly.
That was the core of the entire Eastern Region, very huge, and its prosperity was even greater than the Central Region.
However, outsiders were forbidden to enter Ancient Saint City unless invited.
A huge family like the Gu Clan had a complex network of interests and was also very rigid in terms of rules.
Even the current Gu Xun'er did not have the power to change all this.
Unless she fully awakened her Dou God bloodline, showed her brilliance at the coming-of-age ceremony, and became the Young Patriarch in the true sense, then she would have the right to speak.
Han Feng was not in a hurry to travel. The group chose a nice inn in the city to stay.
At their speed, they would definitely be able to send Gu Xun'er to the Gu Clan in two or three days.
Knock, knock, knock.
At night, Han Feng's door was knocked.
"Come in."
Opening the door, Gu Xun'er walked gently into the room, then closed the door.
"Mr. Han..."
