Chapter 261: Chapter 253: Slaying the Lower Realm, Claiming the Wind Spirit!
He closed his eyes slightly, and his heart spirit sank into the sea of consciousness.
In the center of the Cultivation Technique Lake within the sea of consciousness, nine of the twelve phantom islands had already turned from virtual to real.
At this moment, the lake water around the islands was churning, as if boiling.
The Book collection Lake and the Mountain Scripture Lake continually infused water into it.
At a certain moment, the boiling lake water began to swirl, quickly forming a vortex beside the twelve islands.
Soon, a second vortex formed.
The trend of forming a third vortex also emerged.
But at this moment, Chu Ming frowned tightly; the third vortex hadn’t formed yet, and the lake water receded, turning from a boiling state to a calm lake surface.
"It failed..."
Using his master’s Tiger and Python Body Refining Technique as a foundation, with the half-part Lower Meridian Unlocking Realm technique of the Wind Spirit Race as a guide, combined with several other techniques, he finally inferred the Lower Meridian Unlocking Realm technique part.
Although it was only the first two meridians of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, starting is the hardest part; once you start well, the rest will go much more smoothly.
On the panel.
[Mountain and Sea Primordial Body Technique·Meridian Passage (Meridian Unlocking)]
[Progress: 37/100]
Nine meridians connected, the technique inferred to the Lower Realm...
Overall, not bad.
Chu Ming opened his eyes, and the Sword Gourd Spirit inspected the transportation situation of Feeng Zhi and Feeng Yao.
Most of the gold, silver, provisions, armors, treasure medicines, and such have already been loaded onto the ship; the Wind Spirit Race is transporting some large equipment.
Such as large iron crossbows, large fire stone carts, etc.
These kinds of equipment are quite large and take up a lot of space.
Feeng Zhi and Feeng Yao originally didn’t plan to take them, but Chu Ming asked them to move one of each kind for later disassembly and research, to make them independently.
As he was checking, Chu Ming’s eyes suddenly flashed, looking towards the north of the base.
The Sword Gourd Spirit sensed a team of fifty approaching from the north, led by an expert at Refining Organ Perfection.
"Blood Evil Qi..."
All fifty people had Blood Evil Qi.
No need to think, it’s evident these people came from a different place in the Blood Evil Sect.
He flickered and disappeared from the spot.
Subsequently.
Swish—swish—swish—
The Black Gold Double Rainbow passed through the crowd, all fifty from the Blood Evil Sect were instantly killed.
"The clan leader is so powerful."
"Of course, the clan leader can slay even those strong in the Lower Meridian Unlocking Realm!"
"..."
Members of the Wind Spirit Race cleaned the battlefield while whispering.
Chu Ming picked up the items from the leader of the Blood Evil Sect’s Refining Organ Realm, then took out the Tracking Bead, activating [Tracking].
"Northeast direction..."
The Tracking Bead responded, albeit faintly.
It indicated these people came from a northeast base by the river bend, quite far from here.
"Clan leader, almost everything is loaded." At this moment, Feeng Zhi reported respectfully.
"Alright, let’s go."
Chu Ming put away the Tracking Bead and returned to the pier.
Having been out for quite a while this time, he didn’t plan to continue tracking but rather to return to Xirong County first.
The Tracking Bead had already memorized the aura, allowing him to locate the Blood Evil Sect’s base without concern.
The treasure-laden fleet sailed out of the river bend, entering the White River.
After escorting for half a day, Chu Ming called Feeng Zhi and Feeng Yao.
"Clan leader." The two greeted respectfully.
"Mm," Chu Ming stood on the deck and looked towards the vast White River, "I won’t return to the clan land this time."
"Not returning to the clan land?" Feeng Yao’s heart trembled.
Feeng Zhi’s expression changed slightly but remained silent.
Chu Ming continued, "The two elders should know that I am not originally from the Wind Spirit Race."
"Clan leader... The Clan Tree Spirit has acknowledged you; you are our Wind Spirit Race Clan Leader..." Feeng Yao became somewhat anxious.
"Elder Feeng Yao." Feeng Zhi interrupted Feeng Yao, preventing further speech, then bowed to Chu Ming: "Clan leader, let Feeng Yao follow by your side."
He did not inquire about the reason nor where they were going, he simply said those words.
In Feeng Zhi’s view, Feeng Yao was the most talented among the Wind Spirit Race members, and by being at the clan leader’s side, he could help alleviate problems.
Chu Ming looked at the two, pondered for a moment, and nodded slightly: "Alright, Elder Feeng Yao, you will accompany me."
Having a Six Meridians expert by his side will indeed make many things more convenient.
Feeng Yao’s expression changed as if wanting to say something more, but after seeing Feeng Zhi’s eyes and pondering deeply, he just bowed and went to prepare.
"Elder Feeng Zhi, here is the route for returning; following the marked path will be much safer."
Chu Ming took out a map, detailing the safe route between the river bend base and the Wind Spirit Race’s clan land.
"Thank you, clan leader."
A brief moment passed.
"Clan leader, the ships are ready."
"Mm, let’s go."
"..."
...
At dawn.
Xirong County, Chu Mansion.
"Chu Ming, you finally returned."
Seeing Chu Ming walk into the mansion, Shen Yu hurriedly greeted him.
"Master." Little Shan also ran over excitedly.
"Sorry, Brother Shen."
Tracking the Blood Evil Sect at Baiyun Pier, Chu Ming only said he’d be out for a while, but little did he expect to be gone for several days.
During these days, Brother Shen probably helped him handle quite a few matters.
"If you hadn’t returned, I really couldn’t hold out much longer."
"What happened?"
"Let’s discuss inside."
"Alright."
"..."
In the courtyard.
Shen Yu looked towards Chu Ming, hesitated to speak. "It’s alright, Brother Shen, this is Feeng Yao, one of my clansmen." Chu Ming looked towards Feeng Yao and said.
Feeng Yao immediately cupped his hands and bowed to Shen Yu: "Greetings, Lord Shen."
"Clansman? Chu Family?" Shen Yu’s eyes changed slightly, returning a salute.
Then, he leaned closer to Chu Ming’s ear and asked in a low voice: "Trustworthy?"
"Trustworthy..." Chu Ming smiled lightly and replied softly, "He is a Meridian Unlocking Realm expert, even better than Commander Meng’s martial arts training."
"What?!" Shen Yu jumped in shock, eyes widened staring at Feeng Yao.
