Swallowing the Stars: Realm of Control

Chapter 10 Chieftain Adamostel

……

After five days together, Luo Feng had fully adapted to the identity of Dano as a clone.

The morning of the sixth day.

Luo Feng got up early and the first thing he did upon arriving in the courtyard was to cultivate and absorb the Qi of heaven and earth. He continued his cultivation for four hours before stopping.

"I've been cultivating for five days straight, and this pace is too slow."

The clone's Qi sense was only awakened by the Spirit Aperture Pearl, and its cultivation speed was practically nonexistent. A month of cultivation was less than the amount of Qi gained from consuming a single Spirit-level Great Demon.

After five days, the amount of power that had been channeled into the main body was negligible.

Without the Spirit Aperture Pearl, Dano's nearly forty-year-old body would probably not have reached its current strength.

Besides awakening his Qi sense, the Spirit Aperture Pearl also greatly helps him absorb the Qi from the ferocious beast and the spirit rice. Eating the ferocious beast's flesh is more effective than simply cultivating.

But ordinary, ferocious flesh contains too little Qi.

"It seems I need to find a way to hunt down those Spirit-level Great Ferocious Beasts, but that's not an easy step."

To take this step, one must have sufficient strength: personal strength and weapons;

In addition, there is the issue of his identity. His sudden entry alone will inevitably cause discussion, and once the matter reaches the clan leader's ears, there is no reason not to suspect him.

Doing this kind of thing, and not being able to do it secretly, is indeed a very troublesome thing.

If you let your own being hunt on its own, that's suicidal.

"Let's go find the clan leader first and see if he has any ways to improve our strength. With an excuse as a shield, things will be easier," Luo Feng decided.

After saying goodbye to his wife, he carried the tiger skin out.

Upon arriving at the village entrance, a group of people, including Big Wolf, Scale Fish, and Twenty-Eight, gathered there. Unless they were going out hunting, they would spend the whole day in this spot.

"The captain is here."

Everyone looked at Luo Feng, and some who were sitting on the rocks jumped down as well.

The vice-captain, another member of the village who possessed a spirit aperture pearl, ranked thirty-seventh, walked up to Luo Feng:

"Captain, I'll go hunting today."

Luo Feng patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, be careful."

Every day, someone has to go hunting, firstly for food, and secondly to hunt down the ferocious creatures that threaten the safety of the village.

The ferocious creatures are inexhaustible. For generations, new ferocious creatures have emerged continuously from the direction of Mount Damao. As long as they stop hunting, they will reappear in a frenzy after a period of time.

In their minds, the outer edge of Mount Damao was full of ferocious creatures. So, Luo Feng's true form and these people had been watching the crossroads for several days but had not made a move. The villagers assumed that he had been eaten by the ferocious creatures of Mount Damao.

"Big Wolf, Second Brother, Water Stone, Scale Fish, let's go to the clan leader together."

For fair witnessing, it would be best if all of these people went together.

The clan chief lives in the third village of Maoshan Village. On the mountaintop of the third village, there is a cave that only the clan chief can open. Young people in the village who need to open their celestial apertures can do so.

The mountain god is worshipped in that cave.

"Let's go." The big wolf had a package slung over his shoulder.

Luo Feng looked at them and asked, "Big Wolf, what are these?"

"Hey, a few days ago when I went hunting, I dug up two pieces of large flame root on the mountain. I was going to take them to the chieftain to exchange for something," the big wolf said with a smile.

The Great Flame Root is a spiritual medicine that can promote the body's absorption of Qi, making it a precious medicinal material.

Besides the Great Flame Root, there are many other medicinal herbs near Mount Damao, but they are all quite precious. The ones that should be discovered have already been discovered, and you can only occasionally find some others if you are lucky.

"You're lucky then," Erba remarked.

Hunting is a group activity, and the spoils are usually shared together. However, medicinal herbs and such are generally kept by whoever finds them first; they are not divided equally.

"So-so," Big Wolf said with a smile.

"Let's go." Luo Feng wasn't envious; this reminded him that obtaining these things would be helpful for his cultivation.

Following the village road, the five people quickly arrived at the third village.

The overall size of the three villages is much larger than that of the upper village, almost twice the size of the upper village. This is mainly due to the fact that the clan chief lives here and will show some favoritism and care.

The clan chief's family is the most prosperous, with a total of 62 people, which is more than two-thirds of the population of the upper village.

Their status in the entire Maoshan Village was equivalent to that of a large landowner.

Chieftain Adamostel's courtyard covers an area of ​​30,000 square meters and is surrounded by the finest red ironwood. Even a spirit-level Great Ferocious would find it difficult to rush in at once.

Inside the courtyard, it was divided into five separate courtyards, and the houses were all built with reddish-brown ironwood, which looked tough at first glance.

Luo Feng looked up at the area above the clan leader's courtyard, where the cave was located. It was usually guarded and no one was allowed to get close.

According to Luo Feng's understanding, there must be something inside.

"Let's go." Luo Feng glanced at it and then looked away.

We arrived at the courtyard.

Bang bang bang.

There was a knock on the door.

A short while later, a young man emerged. He was Adashitdo, a grandson of the clan chief Adamostel. His eyes lit up immediately when he saw the tiger skin Luo Feng was carrying.

"This tiger skin looks so majestic and powerful. What level of tiger skin is it?"

"A three-eyed, piercing tiger, a spirit-level creature." The wolf grinned, "Isn't it imposing? It was injured; our captain shot it dead with an arrow."

"A Spirit-level Great Ferocious Beast? Impressive. Come in quickly." Adashitdo couldn't resist reaching out and touching the tiger skin.

"It's been five days already, but the fur looks brand new," the big wolf said again.

"Impressive. My great-grandfather hunted down Spirit-level Great Ferocious Beasts, but he never encountered a Three-Eyed Tiger with Hanging Eyes," Adashitdo praised.

Following the stone-paved path within the courtyard, we passed through the central courtyard of a landmark building before arriving at a large compound.

There are some ornamental trees planted here, and besides some cured meat hanging on the walls of the buildings, there are also some large skeletons, all of them fierce-looking, and even after the passage of time, they do not show much signs of decay.

It's placed here partly to show its power, and partly to warn those vicious people.

"My great-grandfather is inside," Adashitdo said, walking ahead.

"Master, Brother Uemura Dano has brought a tiger skin from a Spirit-level Tiger with Hanging Eyes. It looks very majestic," Adashitto called out in a clear voice.

Although he was his great-grandfather, he was always addressed as "Grandpa".

In the middle room, an old man with gray hair came out. His eyebrows were grayish-white, and his long, drooping ears had some wrinkles. It was clear that he was an old man.

Although it is the realm of enlightenment, it is still not immune to the ravages of time.

His eyes were quite different from those of the Realm Envoy; they were a normal gray-black, appearing somewhat murky, yet like a deep, dark pool.

Furthermore, the aura emanating from him was extremely strong; Luo Feng sensed that it was more than twice as powerful as his clone.

The Qi sense awakened through one's own Heavenly Aperture can, to a certain extent, condense into a spiritual body, which is something that someone who awakens through external force cannot compare to.

"This is Chieftain Adamostel. He's indeed very strong," Luo Feng thought to himself, a sense of apprehension creeping into his eyes.

His current strength is probably far from being a match for this guy.
