Big Data Cultivation

Chapter 1426: Things Remain, People Have Changed



Feng Jun returned to the White Pebble Beach, he had wanted to go for a long time, but he couldn't find the time.

This time, the Yin Spirit Bigwig also urged him to leave, as Xia Nichang gave it an extremely bad feeling.

Upon inspection, the Essence Blood Protection Talisman sent by Master Xia to Feng Jun had no issues, but it still suggested limited contact with her.

Feng Jun had not gone back before, mainly because he found the journey too far, and if not using the Transmission Array, it would take a long time to fly.

The Bigwig encouraged him, saying, "Can't you cross dimensions? Store your things there, just carry a few personal items; aren't you afraid of being inspected?"

Moreover, given your current fame, do the guards at the Mingsha Transmission Array dare to check thoroughly?

It has to be said, this thousand-year-old demon is different: when it's cocky, it's really cocky, good at persuasion too.

Feng Jun thought about it and realized it made sense. So, he packed up and said hello to Du Wentian, asking him to build a small courtyard here—no need for it to be big, around 200 acres would be fine.

Seeing him pack up, even several Masters were alerted, they rushed to inquire and learned he was going to the Secular World for a trip.

Qu Jianlei, although he mingles with Master Xiaomeng daily, didn't forget his duties and stated he would follow along, and Sun Rongxun... even more so.

Kong Ziyi also expressed a desire to follow, then Yu Pao from Wuwei Peak and Li Zhishen wanted to go to the Secular World for a trip too, to join in the fun, but upon hearing they were using Transmission, they regretted not having Spirit Stones.

It was the other three Masters who stayed securely in the encampment, watching the disciples build the courtyard—mainly as a defense against Qinggang.

Then Feng Jun took Chen Junwei and Jing Qingyang, and the group transported all the way to Qiuchen Market.

The Bigwig wasn't wrong, the guards of the Mingsha Fang Market's Transmission were genuinely wary of Feng Jun, not to mention he was accompanied by elite disciples from various sects, one even being a Golden Core Master.

So they roughly checked his Storage Bag and then used a Magic Artifact to scan a bit, without the legendary body search.

As for other Transmission Arrays, Feng Jun and his party continued on directly after each Transmission, so there wasn't any inspection involved.

While transporting, Feng Jun alone spent over a thousand Spirit Stones, plus those for Jing Qingyang and Chen Junwei, totaling at least three thousand five hundred, enough to buy a Mainland Technique book, no wonder these Transmission Arrays aren't for ordinary people.

Feng Jun also considered covering the Spirit Stones for the others, but they were all well-off, including Sun Rongxun, who looked miserable but carried seven to eight thousand Spirit Stones.

Upon reaching the courtyard at Qiuchen Market, they were unsurprised to meet Chen Junsheng and Mi Yunshan, both had reached the seventh layer of Spiritual Transformation.

Feng Jun could still accept Mi Yunshan's cultivation growth, but Chen Junsheng... could he really cultivate so quickly?

But he quickly realized why the other party, even at an older age with limited aptitude, could cultivate rapidly.

He stated he was heading to Mount Zhige, asking if the two would follow; Mi Yunshan agreed without hesitation, saying she hadn't seen her family for two years, but Chen Junsheng hesitated and refused.

He felt that reaching the seventh layer of Spiritual Transformation was unimpressive, planning to cultivate to the Qi Refinement Realm here before considering returning; former Innate Experts indeed have their pride.

Feng Jun didn't press him, left Jing Qingyang to accompany him, and led a large group out of the checkpoint.

This group alone had four at the Dust Leaving stage, all Intermediate to High-Rank, clearly not to be trifled with; those seeking opportunities at the checkpoint entrance dared not approach—especially with Qu Jianlei restraining his aura.

Beyond the checkpoint, the group chose to rest ten miles away; seeing the setup, it was clear they planned to fly at night, preparing to relax a bit.

Some attempted to approach, but Chen Junwei simply flew up, coldly declaring, "Do not enter without invitation!"

Seeing the stance, the others could only scatter; an Innate Expert recognized Chen Junwei was simply Innate, not Dust Leaving, but being guarded by such a figure was noteworthy.

This time returning to Mount Zhige took only two nights, and they arrived at the mountain entrance by the third morning.

However, Feng Jun was puzzled to find the stone tablet "Dust Leaving Period Do Not Enter Without Invitation" had vanished, replaced by two small houses by the gate, with two officials standing outside.

Since it was daytime, they used three all-terrain vehicles for travel, and upon sighting the vehicle, the officials stood directly in the road, loudly shouting, "Stop, to undergo inspection!"

Chen Junwei showed his readiness as a henchman, flying up immediately with two slaps, saying, "You blind fools, who told you to block the road here?"

Flying up, the two officials realized things weren't good, hurriedly shouting, "It's the Prefectural Governor who instructed us..."

But it was too late; both were slapped away and spun off.

Feng Jun spoke coldly, "Find out the situation first."

At this moment, two guards rushed out from the hut, "Stop, there's a military presence in the county town, and we're not short of Innate experts, don't be so arrogant!"

Sun Rongxun couldn't tolerate it anymore, he directly released his oppressive aura and coldly snorted, "Kneel and speak!"

The two guards were horrified and didn't want to obey, but their knees weakened, and they couldn't help but kneel.

At this point, Feng Jun had already noticed something was wrong. The number of people on his territory had become quite small. When he left, he cleared quite a few people out, but he left five or six thousand. Now he felt... there were far fewer people again?

At this time, someone was driving an all-terrain vehicle from afar, wearing military uniforms, with a bed crossbow mounted on the vehicle.

"What's going on here?" Feng Jun raised his hand to summon the Soul-Suppressing Bell, with a light "dong" sound. The opposite party felt dizzy and instantly lost consciousness.

The sound of the Soul-Suppressing Bell spread out, and suddenly, two people soared up from Mount Zhige. One of them loudly shouted, "Which family of Cultivators dares to use Techniques in the Secular World?"

Qu Jianlei immediately sensed the other party's aura, "Two at the Leaving Dust Stage, seem like Loose Cultivators."

Feng Jun furrowed his brows slightly and softly spoke, "Can you bind them?"

He wasn't afraid to fight them, but acting recklessly at the Leaving Dust Stage in the Mortal Realm had many taboos, and it was broad daylight, so it was inconvenient.

Qu Jianlei laughed upon hearing this, "I said, have a little faith in me, alright? I've also experienced the Golden Core Tribulations."

Then, he actually released a majestic oppressive aura, "Young ones, submit voluntarily!"

The two eminent figures were more than ten miles away, feeling the oppressive aura, were directly shocked, "Is it a Golden Core?"

Then the two could only obediently submit — at this distance, they couldn't even run.

However, the two also felt quite aggrieved, "Esteemed ancestor, we are from the Endless Sea Hunting Alliance, isn't there some misunderstanding?"

At this time, Feng Jun finally sensed Elder Liao Brother, released a segment of his consciousness, "Come over here!"

Soon after, two tricycles arrived, one with a person standing in the compartment, his left arm was empty, no other than Lang Zhen, with a young man beside him who looked familiar.

At first sight of Feng Jun, he seemed almost unable to believe his eyes, blinked twice, and then joyously shouted, "Mountain Master, the Mountain Master has returned."

At this time, Qu Jianlei had already flown out and captured the two at the Leaving Dust Stage, casually tossing them to the ground, "Such audacity, who let you in?"

"Hold on questioning these two," Feng Jun pointed at Lang Zhen, "Old Lang, you speak first."

He didn't want to hear one-sided words from them first; even if only to avoid preconceived notions, he had to hear his own people's words first, right?

"Don't mention it," Lang Zhen replied with a bitter smile, "The changes in the past half year have been tremendous."

Previously, Mount Zhige was downturning, but was barely maintaining. Since the goods started becoming scarce, the situation has developed in a bizarre way.

Fewer people came to purchase, yet some stores producing counterfeit goods appeared around.

It must be recognized that in the Cultivator society, nothing is impossible — someone actually successfully counterfeited the Boiler Camel Motorcycle.

Lang Zhen was quite surprised by this, he knew Wang Botai also successfully manufactured the Boiler Camel Motorcycle and improved it with a hydroelectric generator or something, but Wang Botai was a Cultivator.

However, the Boiler Camel Motorcycle was counterfeited, but some things were not easy to counterfeit — such as electrical wires.

The insulating coils inside the Boiler Camel Motorcycle were comparatively low-demand and could be precisely handmade, but electrical wires are highly consumable goods that an industrialized society can mass-produce, restricting the counterfeiters' development.

At this moment, Elder Liao Brother finally appeared, holding a Spirit Beast Bag, he shook his hand, and eight people fell out, among them actually was an Innate Expert.

He respectfully nodded at Feng Jun, "Mountain Master, these guys came to forcibly buy your goods. I wanted to deal with them, but was held up by those two Leaving Dust Stage Cultivators."

Indeed, these counterfeiters couldn't manage to manufacture wires in large quantities, and since Mount Zhige had stockpiled a large amount, they couldn't resist the impulse to forcefully buy.

Feng Jun found it somewhat incredible, "Please have Master Qu help me suppress them, everyone living on my territory is not allowed to leave. I need to first clear things up and find out what's going on."

Qu Jianlei wasn't just average in cooperation, he directly enveloped the entire Mount Zhige with his Divine Sense, without speaking, but his Divine Sense clearly expressed his intention: stay at your place, anyone moving casually will be killed without mercy!

Feng Jun didn't listen to Elder Liao Brother's explanation, but instead looked to Lang Zhen, "You continue."

Actually, it's not complicated, because Feng Jun hadn't been around for long, goods were scarce, Strict Eminent, Wang Botai, and others had all left, even the disciples from the Crimson Pheonix Sect left, barely a few remained — they all knew that Feng Jun had established a foundation in the Cultivation World and more importantly had a closer contact with the Crimson Pheonix, hence it seemed unnecessary to remain here.
