In a relatively open space in the secret realm, a cultivator stood with his arms folded, watching another cultivator using a sword to fight two desolate beasts.
They were Bai Qiaomo and Feng Ming, who had left the underground space. This time, they were more casual. They no longer rushed to find opportunities but instead consolidated their current strength.
Therefore, when encountering a desolate beast, they never missed it and instead went out of their way to look for a desolate beast to fight.
As Feng Ming was fighting the desolate beast, Bai Qiaomo stood aside and took over the formation for him.
At first, Feng Ming looked for relatively weak third-grade desolate beasts who had just entered the qi gathering realm.
Bai Qiaomo stared closely because he knew that Feng Ming had been under Uncle Feng’s protection before and had almost no fighting experience.
However, considering that Feng Ming didn’t only have the memories of this life, he didn’t allow himself to choose a weaker desolate beast, such as a second-grade or even a first-grade one.
Feng Ming picked the third-grade desolate beast himself, so Bai Qiaomo left it up to him. He wanted to keep an eye on it so that if there was a crisis, he could take action immediately.
After the battle started, Feng Ming was still a bit unfamiliar at first. However, Bai Qiaomo could see that Feng Ming had a pretty good sense of fighting. He thought that some things engraved in the soul weren’t so easily thrown away.
Feng Ming completely used the desolate beast to practice his skills. Even if he could kill the desolate beast at a faster speed, he didn’t do so. He just continued to fight the desolate beast.
Firstly, it was to restore his fighting instinct. Secondly, it was to make himself better familiar with the power he currently possessed and the sword skills he had learned.
His father was a swordsman, and Feng Ming also yearned to be a swordsman. So he chose the same sword skills as his father.
However, the sword skills he used before only had form and no substance. It was different now. His sword left sword marks on the desolate beast’s body.
It had now been five days since they came out of the underground space. In these five days, he went from dealing with a newly promoted third-grade desolate beast to now being able to fight two third-grade intermediate desolate beasts independently.
Not only did he fully recover his combat experience from his previous life, but he also incorporated his new combat skills into it.
Combine this with the guidance of the extremely experienced Bai Qiaomo, and Feng Ming’s strength improved rapidly.
Prior to this, Bai Qiaomo also single-handedly killed a fourth-grade desolate beast. The corpse of the desolate beast was now in his storage ring. Bai Qiaomo was very calm about the result of this leapfrog challenge.
Suddenly, his ears twitched. Someone was coming in this direction and they didn’t change directions after sensing the fighting aura here.
More than one person came.
After they got closer, Bai Qiaomo sensed the familiar aura of the other person and also discovered the group’s identities through the mysterious butterfly.
Sure enough, there were people in the group that he and Feng Ming were familiar with. One was Feng Jinghuai and the other was Gong Yuming. They met again.
Bai Qiaomo didn’t let Feng Ming stop. The jade talisman he made was still functioning well at this moment. What others saw when looking at them wasn’t their true faces. There was no need to worry about their identities being exposed at the moment.
The people who came were already shouting.
“Sure enough, someone is fighting. Wow, it is a cultivator fighting two desolate beasts. Huh? This cultivator is only at the early stage of the qi gathering realm. The strength of the two desolate beasts is one level higher than him. Where did he come from? So amazing?”
“Don’t you see that guy standing to the side and controlling the formation is at the peak of the qi gathering realm? No wonder why this cultivator dared to let go and fight.”
“Even so, the cultivator himself isn’t weak. Otherwise, why don’t I control a formation for you, and you go to fight those two desolate beasts?”
This statement made the others laugh. In a life or death crisis, they could use the life-saving trump cards prepared by their family to kill these two desolate beasts.
But the cultivator fighting in front clearly only relied on the sword in his hand and didn’t borrow any other items.
The two desolate beasts were provoked to roar and attack more ferociously, the cultivator was still able to do so with ease.
One of the desolate beasts probably expected that there would be no good results, so it turned around and wanted to run away. However, at this time, the cultivator standing to the side took action. With a wave of his hand, the escaping desolate beast hit a barrier hard. Its eyes sparkled with stars.
Behind it, Feng Ming came after it with a sword in hand. “I will let you go after you finish this fight with me. Why are you running away? Big guy, look at the sword!”
The beast was extremely depressed and couldn’t understand human words. It had no choice but to vent its frustration on the two sheep. It turned around and attacked.
The two beasts and one cultivator continued to fight.
Gong Yuming and the others were dumbfounded. Was it possible to play like this?
Gong Yuming couldn’t help his ears pricking up. Why did the tone of the fighting cultivator sound so familiar to him?
A figure appeared in his mind. It was Feng Ming, his new friend in Gaoyang County. The tone the cultivator spoke in just now was so similar to Feng Ming’s.
Then he immediately shook his head and denied it. How could Feng Ming appear here and fight with two intermediate third-grade desolate beasts with ease? The desolate beasts even wanted to run away.
“Yes, it is impossible. That guy can’t even cultivate normally. Meanwhile, this cultivator is in the early stages of the qi gathering realm.”
Feng Jinghuai was curious when he heard this. “What is Young Master Ming muttering about? What guy? Young Master Ming, who are you thinking of?”
Seeing Bai Qiaomo take action that he managed to stop the intermediate third-grade desolate beast so easily, the group didn’t dare to get close and stayed a certain distance to watch the battle.
Gong Yuming and Feng JInghuai talked to each other like good friends. “Don’t you think this guy’s fiery demeanor and his angry tone of voice are very similar to a certain person?”
Feng Jinghuai was speechless. After hearing Gong Yuming’s description, he knew that this person was referring to his cousin Feng Ming. “How is it similar? When did my cousin do things in a fiery manner? His tone… it also depends on who he is targeting.”
Gong Yuming was extremely angry. Was this putting him and Wu Yingyan in the same category?
Feng Ming had already seen the arrival of this group of people, but he believed in Bai Qiaomo.
There was Bai Qiaomo here, so there was no need to worry about any accidents. He was confident that Bai Qiaomo would stop it.
Gong Yuming refused to give up and asked, “Is it really not the same at all/”
Feng Jinghuai’s eyes never left the two fighting desolate beasts. He thought for a while before saying, “It isn’t surprising that they are somewhat similar. Some people and things are similar.”
Bai Qiaomo listened to the conversation between the two of them and wasn’t worried at all. At this time, Feng Ming was still regarded by everyone as a useless person who couldn’t cultivate.
Even if someone noticed the similarities, they would find reasons to deny it without him needing to refute it.
Gong Yuming was proud. “Let me just say it. Seeing that you have admitted it now, let’s wait. Once the battle is over, we will go and get to know them. It will definitely be very interesting if we introduce this friend to Feng Ming.”
“You are full of bad ideas.” Feng Jinghuai didn’t think this guy had any good ideas.
After fighting for over a quarter of an hour, Feng Ming realized that they could no longer be of much help to him. He fulfilled his words and let the two desolate beasts leave.
The two desolate beasts were clever. They saw that Feng Ming didn’t want to fight any longer and immediately ran for their lives. This time, they didn’t hit any barrier and escaped smoothly.
Once they were far away, the two desolate beasts roared. It sounded a bit like the joy of surviving a disaster, but also a bit angry.
Feng Ming sat on the ground in an exhausted manner, not caring that the ground was dirty.
Bai Qiaomo walked over, took out water for him to drink, and fed him a spiritual fruit. It had been collected on the road before and would help him recover.
Gong Yuming pulled Feng Jinghuai over. In addition to the two of them, there were seven or eight children from the two families. They looked at Feng Ming with curiosity and scrutiny.
They found that the faces of these two cultivators were very unfamiliar and couldn’t tell their identities based on their clothes.
Gong Yuming came closer and greeted them with a smile. “Where do you two friends come from? The fight just now was really wonderful. It has been the first time since entering the secret realm that I’ve seen desolate beasts who don’t want to fight and want to run away. The scene was really amazing.”
Feng Ming continued to chew on the spiritual fruit. His dantian was automatically absorbing the energy from outside to replenish the energy he had consumed.
He looked at Gong Yuming with a smile. He could tell what Gong Yuming was planning just by his appearance. He tilted his head and said, “Where do we come from? Of course, we come from the same place.”
Then he waved his hands and said seriously, “How awesome is it? It is just so-so. You haven’t seen the really powerful things yet. You have too little knowledge.”
D*mn, this guy must be Feng Ming!
Listening to this tone, it was clear that this guy was here!
Gong Yuming’s eyes were about to pop out with shock.
The children of the Gong family frowned slightly. Where did this guy come from? Why didn’t Brother Ming punch him after hearing this mockery? They all wanted to go up and teach this man a lesson.
Feng Jinghuai and the children of the Feng family felt their mouths twitching. They didn’t expect this guy’s fighting ability to be quite good, but his mouth was so bad.
Fortunately, Gong Yuming came forward first or they would’ve been furious. Look, Gong Yuming looked so angry that he was about to jump up.
Feng Jinghuai also had a strange feeling in his heart. He only felt it was a little bit before, but now it felt much more similar.
But this was impossible. Were there really two people so similar?”
“Brother Ming…” Did he want them to teach this kid a lesson? Even if there was a stronger guy, they could always achieve their goal using their high numbers.
Gong Yuming looked back at them and knew what they were thinking. He thought it would be a bad thing if these guys really took action.
If this kid Feng Ming was really beaten by them, he would definitely pay it back ten times or a hundred times, leaving them unable to know how they suffered.
Gong Yuming hurriedly waved his hands. Then he took another step forward and started to circle around Feng Ming, trying to find some clues that could prove his identity.
He also observed the other cultivator standing to the side from time to time. If the person sitting here was Feng Ming, then the person standing there must be Bai Qiaomo.
But this was wrong. Feng Ming was a useless person in cultivation, while Bai Qiaomo was abolished. The person in front of him was at the peak of the qi gathering realm. This aura couldn’t deceive anyone at all.
Could it be that… Bai Qiaomo had recovered and advanced to a higher level, while Feng Ming solved his physical problems and was able to cultivate?
However, as far as he knew, it would be difficult for even a force like the Gong family to allow the two of them to achieve such a result.
Nevertheless, the more he looked, the more they resembled each other. There was Feng Ming’s cocky appearance and Bai Qiaomo’s eye-catching style that made the children of other families jealous.
