At the Dusk Dragon’s stronghold, apart from some houses in designated locations, there were no hotels because those were not needed.
Everyone had set up little tents under the Ancient Wisdom Tree, to cultivate here and to live here!
At this point, there were tents set up one after another under the Ancient Wisdom Tree but were positioned at a relatively safe distance from each other. Some tents were set up close together to take care of each other.
It was just that everyone had their own suspicions and they were all on guard against everyone else.
At this moment, Qin Feng happened to see a familiar face.
“Oh? What a coincidence, meeting this gentleman again!” Qin Feng smiled and walked over with Bai Li.
Liu Hang forced his face into a smile, but it looked worse than if he were crying.
He did not think this was a coincidence and even cried out in his heart, ‘Why is he here again? This is basically a haunting that refuses to go away, stop coming over to bother me!’
It was a pity that Qin Feng was unable to know his inner thoughts, not only that he maintained his smile and continued, “Until now, I still don’t know your name, Mister!”
Liu Hang’s forehead began to break out into sweat.
“No, no need to know my name. I’m not acquainted with you!”
“Always running into one another is also a kind of fate. After a few times, you’re bound to become acquainted!” Qin Feng chuckled, “Also, I’ve got something to ask if you don’t mind. I see that there aren’t many spaces around and your spot is not bad. Could you perhaps move aside and give me some space?”
Liu Hang was here alone, but because he was A-tier everyone else set up their tents about twenty meters away from him. Qin Feng wanted him to move maybe about ten meters away, which meant that he would be able to set up camp here as well.
How could Liu Hang disagree, although his heart roared in a frenzy, he was still terrified of Qin Feng!
Especially because Qin Feng still had that murderous aura from before that had been amplified by the scent of ultra beast blood. It looked like he had seen plenty of battle on the road!
This person was too strong! He should not be provoked!
When he made his move, Liu Hang thought for a moment that his life was going to end.
“No worries, I was just about to leave, this place can be yours!” Liu Hang hurriedly said.
Qin Feng said, “Are you turning your back on me, Mister? I arrive and you leave. That won’t look so good. Don’t come back after you leave, or else that’d look even worse on you!”
Liu Hang’s heart sobbed, he could not even try to leave.
The way Qin Feng said that made him feel like if he did leave, he would not be able to come back. Liu Hang could not come up with an excuse for that!
“Then, then I’ll just move a little!” Liu Hang said, there were a thousand thoughts racing through his mind and none of them wanted to be neighbours with Qin Feng.
Qin Feng had a reason for having Liu Hang stay!
While he was not afraid of any A-tiers, with Bai Li at his side he could take on hundreds of people!
However, this obvious waste of time and delay on his own affairs was so that he would stay in line and not provoke too many people, he did not want people to see him coming off as aggressive.
That way he would not aggravate the general public here.
Liu Hang moved a little distance away while Qin Feng and Bai Li naturally set up their tent. For the next dozen days, this place would be their home.
Of course, during the day everyone would go out hunting. Only at night when it was quieter would it be suitable for cultivation. In that state, the Ancient Wisdom Tree would grant its fruit.
At that time, the sun was beginning to set and it was slowly crawling into the evening. Aptitude users were gradually returning and some of them had started cooking.
Qin Feng was also in a good mood as he chopped up a piece of Giant Mammoth beast king meat and put it on a grill as Bai Li stared at the side, drooling.
After a delicious meal, it was night time!
The Ancient Wisdom Tree gave off a faint glow and its fruit shone with a bright white light as they reflected across one another in the moonlight. In fact, these fruits looked like crystals.
People began to lower their voices and sat down cross-legged. Ability users began to meditate, the ancient warriors channeled their internal force and the gunner, the only gunner, used a special consciousness training method to exercise their consciousness.
Suddenly, amongst the crowd, a cry of alarm came.
A crystal fruit was falling.
This happened at the very edge of the tree, where all the B-tier aptitude users were!
The fruit drifted down slowly but nobody dared rush up to snatch it otherwise that fruit would turn out to be poisonous.
At this time, a person was sitting cross-legged in the crowd as he was shrouded in the same light that the fruit was reflecting. Eventually, he felt something about him and saw the layer of radiance as he opened his eyes.
Then, the fruit fell into his arms with a swish!
The man’s eyes widened, he did not expect to have such good luck!
This was just a B1 tier gunner.
Soon, he took a bite out of the fruit without hesitation. The A-tiers that got up and originally planned to go over to snatch it all stopped, but gave the person a sinister look.
What followed was the man quickly letting out an exclamation.
“The Consciousness Core! Is this the Consciousness Core? I- I’ve become an ability user!”
The man grinned from ear to ear, his face flushed with the color of ecstasy.
It was very rare for a gunner to reach B-tier and impossible for them to reach A-tier without being exceedingly lucky and there were no weapons powerful enough for that.
However, once one had obtained the Consciousness Core, things became different!
This man could very likely reach A-tier in the future!
“The Ancient Wisdom Tree really is amazing, but only when you reach a certain amount of strength you would be able to obtain such an amazing item. Before my rebirth, even though I reached A-tier, I wouldn’t dare come to the places owned by the Dusk Dragon!”
Although the B-tier was on the other edge, after obtaining the Sage Fruit, an A-tier aptitude user swiftly approached. The two obviously knew each other, and their appearance was very similar.
This must be a father and son.
Moreover, these two people must have been part of the Dark Coalition considering that they did not bother trying to hide their faces.
As a member of the Human Alliance before his rebirth, Qin Feng would not have dared to set foot in the place even if he was a Mercenary Lord!
“That’s naturally different now! I have to try too, and see if I can get a Sage Fruit!”
Qin Feng sat cross-legged and thought for a moment before starting to meditate on the Asteroid Assimilation technique!
For him, ancient martial arts was definitely his strongest power.
Qin Feng calmed his heart and began to practice!
While he had absorbed all of the three A-tier aptitude users he fought earlier, he used their internal force and exhausted it during the fight. Qin Feng’s internal force did not get stronger, but it needed to be restored.
This practice made Qin Feng momentarily forget himself. It took him four hours to regain his internal force and this was because the energy of the Ancient Wisdom Tree was abundant, allowing him to quickly recover.
At this time, it was early in the middle of the night and Qin Feng had been sitting crossed-legged for four hours. His cultivation gave himself a floaty, energetic feeling. However, more importantly, Qin Feng still had not obtained a Sage Fruit!
