So, Qin Feng directed another Red Alert soldier into the teleportation array. He wanted to see if the three monks were injured.
However, when he saw the three monks again, they were unharmed. They were still sitting cross-legged on a stone, their clothes without any damage.
Upon seeing the Red Alert soldier enter, they brandished their whips and killed it.
Ye Shen, witnessing this, exclaimed, "Weird! It's unbelievable. This teleportation array is haunted. Every time we enter and see those three monks, they seem brand new. They appear to have no prior memories, no thoughts, just killing beasts."
Qin Feng let out a long sigh, then stood up and said to Ye Shen, "We'll continue our journey. We can't challenge this Level 5 Spiritual Energy Gathering Ground right now. We'll deal with it when we return."
After repeated probing, Qin Feng understood very well that this Level 5 Spiritual Energy Gathering Ground was extremely bizarre. Challenging it now would be unwise and would bring him danger!
At the same time, he felt very happy. The truly formidable aspect of this Level 5 Spiritual Energy Gathering Ground wasn't the three monks, but the teleportation array. If he could decipher this array, his gains would far exceed killing a legendary monster.
That teleportation array represented infinite space and possessed the magical ability to control time.
If there was any treasure on this planet that he considered formidable, the teleportation array would rank first.
As long as he thoroughly understood this teleportation array, his strength would be such that he wouldn't fear any monster.
Now, he needed to improve his understanding of formations and find relevant books or treasures.
Qin Feng knew very well that the shop didn't have such books. He could only search for them himself.
Thus, they continued their journey. Three more days passed, and they killed several monsters in Level 3 Spiritual Energy Gathering Grounds and one in a Level 4 Spiritual Energy Gathering Ground. Qin Feng had a comprehensive evaluation of his strength; his current power was sufficient to deal with monsters in Level 4 Spiritual Energy Gathering Grounds!
As for Level 5 Spiritual Energy Gathering Grounds and above, Qin Feng chose to ignore them for now!
He had to reach the agreed-upon location as quickly as possible, trade for the information he wanted, and then return to explore these high-level Spiritual Energy Gathering Grounds to see what kind of monsters or individuals resided there.
...
They were getting closer and closer to their target location, but 204 still hadn't woken up. Ye Shen couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is this guy really okay? Why hasn't he woken up yet? His breathing is clearly strong, and he looks healthy. Could this guy's brain be damaged?"
Qin Feng also found it strange. His current strength allowed him to sense that 204's body was healthy, and his power had recovered to over 90% of its original state. Logically, he should have woken up long ago. Why was he still unconscious? Qin Feng was also baffled. After much thought, he could only come up with one explanation. He said to Ye Shen, "This guy cultivates demonic arts. His constitution might be completely different from ours. It's possible that after an extreme exertion, he needs to recover to 100% of his original state to wake up. Based on his current recovery state, he should wake up in another two days."
Ye Shen nodded, and they continued their journey.
Another day passed, and they finally reached their target location.
The coordinate point was in a canyon with very steep terrain. There were no signs of human habitation or monsters around, making it very open.
Qin Feng stood there and then dispatched the Red Alert Legion to patrol the surroundings.
He then purchased a private chat horn in his mind and said to the person, "I've arrived at our agreed location. Where are you? There's no one within a ten-mile radius. You're not playing me, are you?"
A moment later, the person replied, "How could that be? Why would I lie to you? I'll be there immediately!"
As soon as Qin Feng received this message, he sensed a peculiar power fluctuating in the surroundings.
Then, at a cliff face nearby, several large rocks were pushed aside by someone's strength, and a person emerged from within.
This place actually hid a cave?
Qin Feng frowned deeply. With his current strength, he would have discovered anyone hiding in the surrounding caves. Let alone people, he could sense even a fly or an ant. Yet, before this person pushed aside the rock face, he had no sensation at all. This person seemed to appear out of nowhere, which made him cautiously vigilant.
The fact that he could evoke such a feeling in Qin Feng could only mean two things: first, the person's strength far surpassed his own, and second, the person possessed a treasure that could conceal their aura.
The newcomer slowly walked towards Qin Feng. He also glanced at Ye Shen and 204 in the off-road vehicle. With a smile, he clasped his fists and said to Qin Feng, "You're the one who arranged to trade with me here, right?"
Qin Feng nodded. He carefully observed the man. The other party appeared to be in his thirties, not tall, and looked like an ordinary person. Not only was his appearance ordinary, but his strength was also ordinary. Qin Feng could sense that this person's combat power was between 200 and 300, a huge difference from his own.
Yet, such an ordinary person could evade his senses. What was going on?
Qin Feng spoke directly, "Since we're here to do business, let's be frank. Before you emerged from that cave just now, I couldn't sense you at all. How did you manage that?"
Hearing Qin Feng's question, the man nodded appreciatively and said, "Since you already possess the ability to sense your surroundings, it means your combat power is higher than mine. So, I might as well tell you. Actually, this question of yours is the information I intend to sell to you. Once you receive the information I give you, you'll understand why you couldn't sense me just now. Now that we're face to face, you transfer the money to me first, and I'll tell you the news. Your strength is higher than mine, so you don't need to worry about me deceiving you, because if I did, you could kill me at any time."
Hearing this, Qin Feng chuckled, "In that case, aren't you worried that after I get the information, I'll kill you?"
The man also smiled, shaking his head, "Of course not. I arranged to meet you here because I have a way to ensure my safety, and this method is also part of the information I'm about to sell to you. Now you know the importance of this information, and you know that spending money to buy it is very worthwhile!"
Seeing the other party's confidence, Qin Feng stopped wasting time. He directly found the transfer option in his mind and transferred the money to the man. Money was no longer important to him. He could replicate these funds in a short period. With the boost from his Red Alert Talent, he no longer worried about money.
After receiving the money, the man nodded with satisfaction, then pointed to the cave and said, "All the information is in the cave. Follow me!"
