Chapter 40: Return

  ♂?,,

  "Boom!"

  In the midst of eerie and blood-curdling screams.

  A ferocious beast let out a low growl from its mouth, filled with cruelty and resentment, slowly fell to the ground, and soon lost all signs of life.

  "Hmm."

  The sharp sword is drawn out.

  The sword was like autumn water, and yet it didn't bring out any splashing blood.

  "Ordinary fierce beasts... have indeed become unable to pose any threat to me. Even if it's a mid-tier fierce beast, as long as I don't encounter extremely rare and uniquely gifted individuals, I still have the confidence to emerge victorious in battle."

  Beside the corpse of the ferocious beast, Wang Ting muttered to himself.

  If it weren't for the fact that the mercenary group's personnel were here not long ago, they would have discovered that this young man was none other than the one who had brushed shoulders with them.

  "However, this is the Fallen Mountain Range after all. The number of ferocious beasts that can survive here far exceeds one. Some of these ferocious beasts are even pack animals. Once encountered, even a great swordsman or swordmaster may be surrounded and killed. Even if I can forcefully kill an intermediate-ranked ferocious beast, the noise from the battle will still alert other ferocious beasts, making the situation extremely dangerous."

  Having the ability to kill mid-tier ferocious beasts does not mean that the royal court can view mid-tier ferocious beasts as nothing.

  Fierce beasts won't listen to reason, even a high-ranking swordsman who goes to the Mountains of Fallen Curtain to kill fierce beasts for gold coins may not find any, but instead encounter a high-ranking fierce beast that has come out to sharpen its teeth, and immediately become its prey. In the Mountains of Fallen Curtain, no one dares to say they can walk sideways, not even the great masters of swordsmanship.

  "It's time to go back, although the forest has various fruits and herbs, I can also roast fierce beasts, but salt is an essential element for the human body. If these things are not replenished for a long time, nutrition is unbalanced, metabolism is slow, and it is not conducive to future cultivation."

  The physical body is the most important thing for any cultivator, it is the origin and foundation of everything. Even if one becomes a Sword Saint or an extraordinary being who has transcended the mundane world, they still cannot escape the constraints of the physical body and achieve eternal life.

  With a thought in mind, Wang Ting took a glance at the corpse of the ferocious beast and didn't waste any more time, heading directly towards the outer reaches of the Luomushan Mountains.

  Two months.

  It has been two months since entering the Luoma Mountain Range.

  In these two months, Wang Ting seemed to have returned to the experience of a cultivator who had just obtained the Eastern Heaven Sword Sect's inheritance, walking every day in the dense mountains and forests, treading on withered branches and rotten leaves, smelling the damp coldness in the air, feeling the cruelty and indifference of the forest.

  Two months of cultivation, he not only gained a new sublimation in spirit, thoroughly accepting everything about himself in this world and the degree of fusion with his physical body. Because he broke through the spiritual shackles, he reached 100% degree. From this moment on, a new king was born. This king is both the sole successor of Dong Tian Sword Sect in that world and the number one genius martial artist of Bi Shui City in this world.

  Apart from fully mastering this physical body, the greatest gain is still in the cultivation and refinement of the physical body.

  His entire body's hidden ailments were not only completely cured and restored to their peak state, but also because the medicinal properties of the Blood Dragon Whiskers had been activated, his mid-grade swordsman cultivation was solidified. The 206 bones in his body had all been refined by him, with each bone's solidity increased by a whole level, and the amount of power they could withstand had also greatly increased.

  Although the power has not yet been fully refined into his bones and marrow, however, if he were to face an ordinary formal swordsman, he wouldn't need to draw his sword. With just a grab, he could shatter the opponent's skeleton. A slight shock or collision would cause the power to penetrate through the bone, and he could shake the opponent to pieces.

  At this time, let him face the high-ranking swordsman sent by the Gongsun family again. Even if he doesn't use his spiritual secret technique and just relies on his physical skills, swordsmanship, and physique for a head-on confrontation, his final winning percentage will still be over 90%.

  ……

  Beyond the Luoma Mountains, Akatsuki Town.

  Where there is a flow of people, there will be demand; where there is demand, there will be businessmen; and businessmen will drive economic development, naturally forming a certain scale of development.

  The town of Akatsuki is nestled in the foothills of the Falling Curtain Mountains, and it was the mercenaries who occasionally came to train in the mountains that brought economic vitality to the town. As a result, the town developed rapidly, and by now, although the registered population of the entire town of Akatsuki is only about 2,000 households with more than 6,000 people, there are always over 30,000 people flowing through the town every year.

  At a glance, the whole town is quite prosperous, with not only wide streets, but also various shops. Outside the town, a three-meter-high stone wall has been built, seemingly to resist the ferocious beasts that wander out from the Falling Curtain Mountains. The whole town seems to have a tendency to transform into a small city.

  Nightfall.

  The town of Akakawa is still brightly lit.

  Although it doesn't reach the level of a sleepless city, in front of many high-end landmark buildings, there is solar stone lighting that illuminates a small area as if it were daytime. Especially in the early summer environment now, you can see a large number of mosquitoes flying around the light of the solar stone.

  Wang Ting took a glance and quickly walked towards an inn in the middle of the town that looked quite high-end.

  The streets of the town, although paved with bluestones and quite flat, were not very clean, and occasionally some animal dung could be seen, which was far from comparable to the cities of that world. With a faint light, Wang Ting finally appeared outside this inn.

  "Bump."

  The large gate was pushed open, and under the swaying of the sun stone, a rather lively hotel lobby suddenly appeared in Wang Ting's line of sight.

  As night was falling, there were still many people dining or chatting in small groups of three to five, when Wang Ting suddenly entered the door and attracted a lot of attention.

  But soon, their eyes were drawn to a package in Wang Ting's hand.

  The bundle is made of animal hide and looks very crude. From there, some items packed in the bundle can also be seen.

  Mid-tier ferocious beast, single horn of the cold-blooded beast; Mid-tier ferocious beast, venomous fangs of the coiled snake; Mid-tier ferocious beast, sharp claws of the ghost-striped wolf; Mid-tier ferocious beast, bear palm of the dark violent bear...

  Although these things only exposed less than half, some sharp-eyed people have seen the shadow of five middle-grade fierce beasts from above, and what they represent is not the most precious items on the middle-grade fierce beast's body.

  "Hiss!"

  Just one glance, and several gasps of astonishment had already escaped from the numerous diners who were originally somewhat careless.

  Especially when these people looked at Wang Ting's attire, they seemed to have guessed something, and for a moment, the gaze towards Wang Ting became somewhat reverent.

  This world is ultimately a world where ordinary people are the majority.

  Although the trend of cultivation is booming on the mainland, compared to those ordinary people struggling at the subsistence level, how can they have so many resources to buy meat, raise children and make them warriors? Even if they become warriors, where will they get the money to continue? Take a new step forward?

  Across the entire continent, ordinary people make up the vast majority, excluding the elderly, weak, sick and disabled. Among almost fifty ordinary people, there is only one martial artist. For a martial artist to become a formal swordsman, in addition to sufficient nutrition supplements to nourish their body, a rigorous cultivation method is also crucial. Under such circumstances, among almost a hundred martial artists, only about one can barely give birth to a formal swordsman.

  A true swordsman is perhaps not one in ten thousand among ordinary people, but it's also not far from that.

  Even in a small town like Akakawa Town on the outskirts of the Rakuen Mountains, a formal swordsman can be considered a strong person.

  And a swordsman like Wang Ting who can slaughter so many mid-tier beasts is absolutely an existence that deserves to be feared by all.

  After a while, a middle-aged man wearing expensive clothes was the first to react. He stood up at the first time and went forward to greet him. The two bodyguards behind him followed closely, each of whom was actually a strong swordsman in the middle stage.

  "Respected swordsman, greetings. Tomorrow, Merchant Zhou Guangming will pay his respects to you."

  The middle-aged man said, regardless of the young boy in front of him who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and slightly bowed to show respect.

  "Huh?"

  Wang Ting looked at the middle-aged man Zhou Guangming with some confusion.

  "It's like this, esteemed swordsman sir. Our Tomorrow Trading Firm has been purchasing various beast materials in Dawn Town for years. If you ask around, you'll find out about it easily. Judging from your attire, I think you've just come out of the Fallen Mountain Range not long ago. I wonder if you've found a sales channel for these materials on you? If not, would you consider selling them to our Tomorrow Trading Firm? Please rest assured, sir, we will definitely give you a satisfactory price."
