Chapter 494: Field Supply Point

It took over a month for Ye Feng and Jin to cover most of the journey to Wanmo Peak. Aside from the Thousand Needle Stone Forest, they encountered several groups of reckless folks along the way.
Ye Feng was too lazy to fight, so he simply released Stone from the Liuluan Hall, claiming it was to assess his cultivation progress. Given such an opportunity, Stone wouldn’t miss it. In the Liuluan Hall, he dared not challenge Ye Han, and every time he tried to fight Ye Yan, he was thoroughly beaten and left burned to a crisp. Now that he had encountered someone weaker than himself, he naturally wanted to vent his anger.
After all, as a practitioner who had reached the sixth level of law cultivation, those who came to rob him at most reached the fourth level. Before they could even react, they were killed by Stone’s brutal attacks.
Ye Feng also obtained over twenty divine souls and more than twenty storage rings.
Over a month, his three clones, who practiced under accelerated time, made some progress. The Thunder Shock Movement reached the fourth level, and the Hundred Forges Vajra Body also reached the fourth level. Only the most difficult to master techniques, the Ice Heart Art and the Sky Splitting Fingers, remained at the third level. Yet Ye Feng knew these two techniques were on the verge of breaking through.
His law cultivation was still at the minor perfection stage, but he felt it was gradually growing stronger, though the state of minor perfection hadn’t changed. He couldn’t find a logical explanation for this, but he was clear that he likely couldn’t escape this state in the short term. So he instructed his clones to focus on law-related techniques, putting the comprehension of law cultivation second.
Since the Hundred Forges Vajra Body had reached the fourth level and his law cultivation and related techniques were similar to Ye Yan’s, his physical strength also reached the level of a super divine weapon. He was even one rank stronger than Stone, who only had the strength of an elite divine weapon.
After each battle, Ye Feng would send Stone back to the Liuluan Hall to continue his cultivation.
When the airship emerged from the last teleportation array, he knew he was getting closer to Wanmo Peak. This place was already in the northeast corner of the entire divine realm, a remote area with few people.
As expected, after several days of travel, they saw almost no one. Even when they occasionally encountered others, there were no attempts at robbery. Everyone knew that those who dared to venture into such places must be strong, and those who boldly entered remote areas in airships, unafraid of magical beasts, were even stronger.

Under normal circumstances, few people would use airships to venture into such places, as airships are large targets and easily attacked by groups of magical beasts. Even if an airship’s speed is comparable to that of mid-stage Godly-level warriors, escaping from a swarm of flying magical beasts is not easy. Although the rainproof shield can withstand attacks from mid-stage Godly-level warriors, each attack consumes a great deal of energy. If dragged around by a swarm of magical beasts for several days, the energy cost alone would be enormous. In short, those who enter such places in airships are either fools or madmen, or else warriors with absolute confidence in their own strength.

However, magical beasts aren’t that smart. This area is already sparsely populated, making it a paradise for them. Seeing humans, especially such large targets, naturally makes them drool with desire. But due to the airship’s fast speed, most magical beasts failed to catch up. Still, a few groups of flying beasts foolishly tried to surround it. In such situations, Ye Feng didn’t even bother summoning Stone to deal with them; instead, he used the Ice Heart Technique to freeze them all into ice sculptures and then discarded their core crystals.

The closer they got to the Peak of Ten Thousand Demons, the higher the rank of the magical beasts became.

After traveling for over ten days, Ye Feng suddenly discovered a village not far ahead. The village was extremely small, barely larger than those on Earth, which surprised him. In such a deep area within the territory of magical beasts, there was actually a village, and it was located far from the central cities of the Divine Realm.

“Jin, how could there be a village over there?” Ye Feng asked curiously.

“Oh, that one?” Jin walked to the edge of the ship and looked down. “That’s a supply point set up by the Neutral Tribes. It mainly provides medicinal supplies and temporary shelter for warriors who hunt magical beasts in this area or carry out special missions. Since it takes at least fifteen days to return to any city once you go this deep, those who are severely injured by magical beasts or run out of medicinal supplies can’t wait that long. Here, those injured can recover, and those short of supplies can get replenished. Moreover, the guardians here are two warriors whose mastery of the Laws has reached the fifth level. Apart from those magical beasts at the level of great lords, there’s no need to worry about attacks from other beasts. The Neutral Tribes have set up four similar supply points, all located between the four Great Forbidden Lands and the cities closest to them.”

“There are so many strong warriors in the Neutral Tribe?” Ye Feng was slightly shocked. The strongest human warriors he had encountered before had only reached the third or fourth level of Law cultivation. But by this standard, the Neutral Tribe alone had eight Law cultivators at the fifth level guarding the supply points. It was easy to imagine just how powerful they were as a whole.

“In fact, these guardians aren’t fixed; they merely take on the task of guarding from the Neutral Tribe and stay here for a certain period. Completing the task brings generous rewards, so many strong warriors are eager to take it on. There are also many who renew their contracts. Although it seems harsh here, it’s actually very conducive to cultivation. With no worldly influences and surrounded by powerful magical beasts that often lead to battles, many ascetics are willing to come here, not to mention the generous rewards. Moreover, those who have reached the fifth level of Law cultivation can go almost anywhere in the Divine Realm except within the four great forbidden zones. They can even venture into the outskirts of those zones, where they rarely face the danger of destruction.”

Ye Feng nodded. As far as he knew, outside the four great forbidden zones, there were few magical beasts in the Divine Realm that surpassed the fifth level of Law cultivation. Even the leaders of the magical beasts in the smaller forbidden zones outside the main city had at most reached the fifth level, with only a few in the entire Divine Realm reaching the sixth level. So, the statement that Divine Realm warriors at the fifth level of Law cultivation could go anywhere except the four great forbidden zones was indeed not an exaggeration.

“Most of the Neutral Tribe’s profits come from the magical beast cores at the supply points. They offer 70% of the price charged in ordinary cities, and many strong warriors, in need of supplies urgently, don’t mind losing those 30%. So they reap the profit difference. Moreover, at such depths, the quality of the magical beast cores is high—Imperial God-level cores are common, and occasionally, Progenitor God-level cores are sold as well. A 30% profit margin is quite substantial.” Jin, being a typical merchant, was highly sensitive to such information.

“Let’s go down and take a look! We still have time,” Ye Feng suggested.

“No problem, it’s fine even if we stay for a few days.” Kim wasn’t in the least anxious. The journey had been incredibly smooth, and at this pace, they would reach Mount Myriad Demons in less than four months, far better than he had expected. Moreover, they hadn’t stopped anywhere along the way; even battles were over in less than an hour each time. And fighting was prohibited inside this supply point, with practitioners of the fifth-layer laws protecting it, so there was no need to worry about safety. He quickly landed the airship.
