281: Too lazy to say anything, let's get going.
Feng Ming suddenly realized. He raised his hand and waved, and an invisible force sucked the storage ring from Bei Mo's waist toward him.
His Divine Thought probed inside, and he discovered that besides some daily necessities, there wasn't even a single Spirit Stone.
Evidently, the Black-Robed Man hadn't lied; Bei Mo truly had bet everything on participating in this Trial.
No wonder he refused to speak earlier, even facing death; he was probably already prepared to fight to the bitter end.
"What did you get from that grandfather and grandson?"
The Black-Robed Man quickly replied, "We didn't get anything, except for the coordinates of a soul thought teleportation stone, and the actual route to enter the Wangyue Spring. That old man said this was a secret discovered by several generations of his family, who devoted themselves to the search."
"soul thought teleportation stone coordinates?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Feng Ming couldn't help but be stunned.
Hua Dieer explained from the side, "A soul thought teleportation stone is a special Teleportation Stone refined using one's own Soul Power. Generally, only Cultivators who are about to perish but worry that their Legacy or Treasure Trove will go undiscovered expend great effort to refine this kind of Teleportation Stone."
"This kind of Teleportation Stone can exist for hundreds of years or even longer. As long as you know the specific coordinates, you can use it to teleport directly to the designated location. No wonder we chased you for three days without catching up!"
Hua Dieer suddenly realized, looking at the Black-Robed Man with a hint of understanding. "So, after you entered the vicinity of Wangyue Spring, you directly teleported here."
At this moment, Feng Ming also understood. Bei Mo and the others relied on the coordinates of that soul thought teleportation stone to prepare a large number of Teleportation Stones in advance.
Once they entered the Trial Grounds and reached the periphery of the Wangyue Spring, they could use the coordinates to teleport directly into the depths of the Wangyue Spring, which was where they had been previously.
This was why they couldn't catch up with the enemy. Later, as they got closer, Bei Mo and the others discovered their tracks and set up a Formation in advance, intending to ambush them.
Unfortunately, they didn't account for Feng Ming's immense strength. In the end, they tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice used to lure it, resulting in their complete annihilation.
Having clarified the entire sequence of events, Feng Ming couldn't help but sigh and turn to look at the Mercenaries who were still trembling.
Feeling Feng Ming's gaze, these men's hearts jumped into their throats, their faces as pale as paper.
Feng Ming looked at them, his tone carrying a hint of mockery: "Look at how cowardly all of you are."
"You're afraid of death, yet you're unwilling to perform well. You should learn more from Brother Black-Robe." Saying this, Feng Ming waved his hand, a hint of impatience showing on his face: "Forget it, forget it. I'm too lazy to lecture you. Get going."
As his voice fell, the Thunder Arc Blade reappeared in his palm, transforming into streaks of flowing light that shot toward the Mercenaries with lightning speed.
Only a few muffled "pupu pu" sounds were heard as the Thunder Arc Blade instantly pierced through the chests of everyone, stringing them together like candied hawthorns.
Blood spurted out, staining the ground red. The Mercenaries fell to the ground one after another, lifeless, without even having time to scream.
The Black-Robed Man nearby, seeing this, was scared Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. He quickly knelt on the ground, desperately kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Big Brother! Big Brother, spare my life! I cooperated with you completely, and I was the first one to rush to answer your questions. Big Brother, you will definitely spare me, right?"
Hearing this, Feng Ming curved his lips into a cold smile and said plainly, "That's right. You were very proactive in answering questions. Therefore, you got to live a little longer than them."
"Get going."
As the last word fell, a Thunder Arc Blade shot out instantly, piercing the chest of the Black-Robed Man.
The Black-Robed Man's eyes widened, filled with unwillingness and terror. His body slumped softly to the ground, completely silent.
Hua Dieer watched the scene before her and finally sighed in relief, saying, "These people committed every evil imaginable; they deserved to die. It's a good thing you didn't spare them, or who knows how many more people they would have harmed later."
Feng Ming put away the Thunder Arc Blade and said lightly, "Let's go. This matter is resolved, and it's time we attend to our own affairs."
Hua Dieer nodded, then, as if thinking of something, she smiled and teased, "These people were truly stupid. You weren't wrong to call them idiots. It's just that you are a little too good at playing with people's minds."
Hearing this, Feng Ming immediately became displeased. "Wait a minute. It's true they were idiots, but when did I play with people's minds? Did I lie about anything I said?"
"Even what I told you before—that as long as you don't cheat on me, I will always be responsible for you—is true."
"You're talking about this again, you're annoying!" Hua Dieer's pretty face flushed red as she couldn't help but pout playfully, though a sweet smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Feng Ming looked at her shy appearance and felt a bit surprised: "Hey, wait, wait. You only said I was annoying, but you didn't say you wouldn't let me be responsible. Did you finally come around and agree to let me take responsibility?"
Hua Dieer's face grew even redder, and she quickly changed the subject: "Alright, look at the time. You still have the mind to think about this? Hurry up and get going. If we delay any further, Shuwan and the others will arrive soon."
Hearing Jiang Shuwan's name, the smile on Feng Ming's face gradually faded. He sighed, feeling a little worried.
"Three days have passed in a flash. I wonder if Shuwan and Big Brother have managed to deal with the troubles of Huangfu Rui and Huangfu Yunyan."
According to the plan formulated earlier, Jiang Shuwan, who is outside, should have already forced Huangfu Rui and Huangfu Yunyan into Yin Feng Valley.
And next, only two scenarios will occur.
The first scenario is that Jiang Shuwan kills Huangfu Rui and Huangfu Yunyan directly inside Yin Feng Valley. Then, two days later, Feng Mian will arrive at Yin Feng Valley, and after three more days, he will be able to reach Wangyue Spring and meet up with him.
The second scenario is that Huangfu Rui and Huangfu Yunyan continue to resist stubbornly and choose to flee.
Two days later, they will be jointly besieged by Feng Mian, Jiang Shuwan, as well as Guan Rong and Qin Hu, who will arrive afterward.
After dealing with the two of them, they will then rush to Wangyue Spring.
"Don't worry too much. We should first go find the Opportunity of the Wangyue Spring. That way, we'll be better prepared to handle things later."
Seeing that Feng Ming was genuinely worried, Hua Dieer quickly comforted him.
Feng Ming nodded. "Indeed. If we find it first, when they come in, they can avoid many detours."
After speaking, Feng Ming stopped delaying and immediately took Hua Dieer, striding quickly toward the Core Area of the Wangyue Spring.
Regardless of which scenario he predicted, the time required was approximately five days.
This means that Jiang Shuwan and the others would have to wait at least five days before they could reach Wangyue Spring.
If they could find the Opportunity of the Wangyue Spring within these five days, then he wouldn't have to wait around idly here. He could even take the Opportunity out and distribute it to Jiang Shuwan and the others.
Of course, the prerequisite for this is that the Opportunity of the Wangyue Spring is unlimited.
If there is only one portion of this Opportunity, then even if he finds it, there's nothing much he can do.
