With the previous lesson from Monk Huang and the reason for Wu Ye Lin and others, the entire afternoon on the way to the Giant Ruins saw no explorers foolish enough to come and harass Ye Feng.
.....
In the evening,
"Xiao Xiao, what's wrong?"
After dinner, Ye Feng, who had climbed a tree to overlook the distant scenery, suddenly turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiao with puzzlement.
Because he noticed that Xiao Xiao would turn her head to look at his feet at regular intervals, just as she did when walking, and now as well...
"Big brother... the spot on your foot... seems to have a strange fluctuation..."
"But I'm not sure. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not!"
Xiao Xiao pointed to Ye Feng's left foot, frowning slightly, and replied.
"Foot?"
Ye Feng looked at his left foot with great confusion. He stared for a long time but couldn't see anything strange. His foot didn't feel uncomfortable in any way...
"Wait!"
Suddenly, Ye Feng's eyes narrowed because he noticed something seemed off about his shoe.
He couldn't help but take off the sandal on his left foot and examine it. He found that it faintly seemed to emit arcane energy fluctuations. kanδん
This feeling was very subtle. If Ye Feng hadn't been researching the "Huo Zhong Lu" and "She Hun Shi Mi Lu," and coupled with the influence of the Tang knife, his mental strength was extremely powerful. Even with careful perception, he might not have been able to detect it...
Moreover, if one wasn't paying attention, it would be easy to mistake the fluctuation for the arcane energy within his own body...
"Big brother, it does seem like there's a strange fluctuation... Is it arcane energy?"
At this moment, Xiao Xiao also came closer, looking at the sandal in Ye Feng's hand with confusion.
"This spot... the place Monk Huang touched with his hand before disappearing through the teleportation array..."
"Coincidence...?"
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes. "Or... was it intentionally made... a mark of some kind?"
Ye Feng observed the spot on the sandal emitting the peculiar fluctuation for a while, and a guess formed in his mind.
Immediately, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and he condensed an arcane energy carving knife, beginning to engrave on the trunk of a nearby large tree...
.....
After a considerable amount of time,
"This Gu Talisman and that rune array called 'Gui Xi' are really quite complex!"
Ye Feng frowned as he looked at a patch of runes shimmering with white light on the tree trunk.
He wasn't idly carving on the tree trunk. He was studying Monk Huang's "Gu Talisman" and "Gui Xi," which he found to be quite potent...
However, even with his extensive research into the "Huo Zhong Lu," he couldn't directly replicate the "Gu Talisman" and "Gui Xi" rune arrays...
"If only I could see the array cast a couple more times!"
Ye Feng muttered, glancing at the sandal on his left foot.
.....
Late at night,
Xiao Xiao and Qiao Ying had already fallen asleep, while Ye Feng lay in the tent, not feeling very sleepy.
His consciousness was curiously observing the [Personal Information] panel in his mind.
[Name: Ye Feng]
[Strength: Gold Rank Nine]
[Intelligence: ?]
[Precision: 10 (Ordinary person is 2)]
[Available Points: 21111]
[Precision Points: 0]
"This 'Precision' is a bit strange~"
Looking at the information about [Precision] in the personal information panel, Ye Feng was quite puzzled.
Because up to this point, his precision ability was definitely far beyond when he first allocated points, but this precision module had never changed...
Furthermore, Ye Feng had killed Archer Fish not long ago, but he hadn't obtained any precision points...
"Speaking of which, this [Intelligence] is also very strange... If Pipi wakes up, will she know what's going on...?"
"I wonder when Pipi will wake up..."
Harboring doubts about the system, Ye Feng slowly drifted off to sleep.
.....
The next day,
Ye Feng and his companions got up early. After breakfast, they resumed their journey to the Giant Ruins.
.....
At noon,
"Xiao Xiao, Ye Feng... is this how he gets stronger?"
Wu Ye Lin, who was tending a fire by a makeshift stove, looked at Ye Feng in the distance, who was exercising with a dark gray metallic rod that looked like some kind of metal pillar, with a look of surprise.
The dark gray metal rod in Ye Feng's hand was not ordinary metal, but a tungsten rod. It had extreme hardness, a very high melting point, and high density. It didn't look particularly large, but it was very heavy. As he swung and moved, the ground was pounded with deep pits...
"Yes!"
Xiao Xiao, standing next to Wu Ye Lin, nodded. "Big brother trains very diligently. Sometimes he uses boulders, sometimes he pushes the Hummer forward... and even lifts the Hummer to exercise..."
"Okay... alright~"
Wu Ye Lin was at a loss for words regarding Ye Feng's strange training methods.
.....
"Kid, what sorcery are you using!"
After a long while, Lai Yi Zhong, who had exerted all his strength but couldn't move the tungsten rod an inch, had already turned red in the face and was panting.
"Die!"
Lai Yi Zhong, feeling humiliated under the gaze of his subordinates, became enraged. He let out a roar and threw a punch towards Ye Feng's forehead...
