But still, he swung his sword, again and again, hacking toward what lay before him.
Indeed, this person was none other than Luo Ze.
A man whose talent in both cultivation and swordsmanship was utterly mediocre.
This young lad possessed nothing but an exceptionally firm heart.
It seemed, then, that he had no other merits.
“Still waving around that wooden sword?”
As he watched, Luo Changfeng could not help but silently stop his continuous forward strides.
And just like that, he stood behind Luo Ze.
With a calm expression, he watched on.
Through this period of hard training, Luo Ze’s body had indeed become much more robust, and the strength in his swings with the wooden sword had grown significantly.
But, these slight improvements,
Underneath the shadow of absolute talent,
All seemed in vain.
After all, the effort a common person put in for several dozens of days, or even a hundred days, could barely match up to the hardship a genius would endure in a single day.
In this case, how could a commoner compare with those geniuses?
“Sigh…”
Shaking his head and letting out a small sigh, Luo Changfeng silently walked away into the distance.
…
Upon returning to his own courtyard,
He did not immediately sit down below the Stone Pavilion to leisurely drink tea.
Instead, he walked over to another area within the courtyard.
In this area, there was a piece of farmland that had already been cultivated.
Beneath the farmland, roughly a thousand low-grade spirit stones were buried.
Around the farm, Luo Changfeng had also engraved a small Spirit Gathering Array and Locking Spirit Array.
The Spirit Gathering Array was a formation used to collect the surrounding spiritual energy.
It might seem rather impressive at first glance, but in reality…
Using this thing was actually a loss.
Because to activate the formation, a certain number of spirit stones needed to be placed within the core of the formation.
And the amount of spirit stones determined the duration the formation could operate.
Luo Changfeng had tested it, if ten low-grade spirit stones were put into the Spirit Gathering Array, it could operate for ten hours.
Within these ten hours, it could gather about the equivalent of five low-grade spirit stones’ worth of spiritual power value.
In the meantime, there was a loss of five low-grade spirit stones.
But he had no choice, he had to do it.
Rellying solely on the spiritual power that leaked out of spirit stones, it was nearly impossible to transform a piece of farmland into a spirit field.
Therefore, even though Luo Changfeng knew that activating the Spirit Gathering Array would result in a significant loss,
He still had to go through with it.
…
The Spirit Gathering Array was used for gathering spirit,
And naturally, the Locking Spirit Array was used to seal the spiritual power value.
After all, if you gather the spirit on one end and all the accumulated spiritual energy runs off on the other, wouldn’t that be a disastrous loss?
Therefore, the Locking Spirit Array was also necessary.
Gather the spirit, lock the spirit, and then add to that the thousand or so low-grade spirit stones buried beneath the plot of land.
It was uncertain if this piece of land could actually be transformed into a spirit field.
Luo Changfeng felt somewhat uncertain in his heart.
…
In the blink of an eye, another three months had passed by.
During these three months, the strife within Luo Mountain Prefecture gradually subsided.
Even the Yellow Mountain County, which was among the most chaotic in Luo Mountain Prefecture, seemed to have stabilized over these three months.
Except for the Qingqu County Liang Family and the Huai Shui County Luo Family.
These two major family forces have been in constant collision and friction over the past three months.
The entirety of Luo Mountain Prefecture has gradually returned to its former calm.
However, everyone within Luo Mountain Prefecture is well aware.
That this three-month tranquility is but an illusion.
Now, with the Da Feng Dynasty’s power up for grabs, many vie for control.
Even setting aside the powerful princes of the Da Feng Dynasty and the New Emperor who hasn’t been on the throne for long.
There are several prefectures that heed orders only on paper.
And some that are controlled by family clans.
These ambitious factions will naturally not allow the Da Feng Dynasty to regain its former peaceful state.
And the reason why Luo Mountain Prefecture is like this
mainly lies in the conflict between the Huai Shui County Luo Family and the Qingqu County Liang Family.
These two families seem to have truly ignited their animosity after this period of friction and collision.
Now, even if they want to make peace, it’s no longer possible.
Therefore, under such circumstances,
the powers within Luo Mountain Prefecture have chosen to observe for the time being.
Waiting for these two families to determine the victor before deciding on their next move.
…
“This is simply too much, the Huai Shui County Luo Family is going way too far!!!”
At the border between Qingqu County and Huai Shui County.
Right now, inside the military camp of the Qingqu County Liang Family.
Liang Xu, with a towering height of two meters and a robust physique brimming with muscle,
is continuously cursing loudly.
Originally, the Qingqu County Liang Family thought about gradually withdrawing their troops and avoiding a head-on clash with the Huai Shui County Luo Family after the first month of warfare.
After all, there’s an old saying,
“One should pick the soft persimmons to squeeze.”
Whether it be Shang Heng District or Yellow Mountain County, or even other counties adjacent to Qingqu County, aren’t they all soft targets?
The Qingqu County Liang Family could easily crush them, right?
But what the Qingqu County Liang Family did not expect
is that the Huai Shui County Luo Family is like a mad dog that, once it bites, never lets go.
One month, two months would have been bearable.
But now, the war between the Huai Shui County Luo Family and the Qingqu County Liang Family has already lasted a full three months.
The casualties of both sides have exceeded a total of more than one hundred thousand elite armored warriors.
The amount of consumed food is beyond count.
Even at the border between Qingqu County and Huai Shui County,
the two sides have already accumulated over half a million armored troops.
As time goes by, the number of troops amassed here may continue to grow.
And as the number of troops increases, the pressure on food supplies becomes greater and greater.
Moreover, considering the severe droughts in the past few years, and with the waters of Huai River already dried up and the early signs of a locust plague appearing,
the food production within Qingqu County is already greatly limited.
Under such circumstances, the Huai Shui County Luo Family still wants to fight a war with them that has lasted a full three months.
Not just Liang Xu, whose body is all muscle, but also the other members of the Liang Family, are filled with question marks at this moment.
What the hell, why is this happening?
Has the Huai Shui County Luo Family gone insane?
Doesn’t the Huai Shui County Luo Family feel the pressure of food supplies?
Without any interest, harming others but not benefiting oneself, why would the Luo Family insist on this to the present?
“Tell me, what should we do next?”
“If this goes on, even if our Liang Family’s food reserves are ample, they will be exhausted by this war…”
In the commander’s tent, Liang Xu is asking Liang Shichun with a deep voice in front of him.
