Chapter 175: Stone Cave Forest

“Found it!”

In the void, Li Feng flew, riding the Storm Mecha.

After crossing seven or eight mountain peaks, he finally saw a city.

“This city is not small, there should be someone who knows where the nearby sword tomb is.”

Li Feng put the egg in his hand back into the Spatial Ring, and then slowly landed.

The task Instructor Bai Shen assigned was completed.

Next, he was ready to complete the final fusion of the Great Sword Immortal.

The city below him was not big, but it was not small either. It was considered medium-sized.

Just right for inquiring about information.

At the city gate, two soldiers stood guard. Citizens pulled ox carts, lining up obediently, paying a small fee to enter the city.

“Immortal!”

“An Immortal has descended, make way.”

“. . .”

As soon as Li Feng landed, he attracted the attention of many citizens, their faces showing a bit of fear and trepidation.

Although the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Domain was an Awakened Level Dungeon, not everyone living here could cultivate.

There were still a large number of mortals.

The surrounding people made way, fearing to block the Immortal’s path.

Li Feng was not polite either, and strode directly into the city.

The two soldiers at the city gate did not dare to stop him.

After all, this was an Immortal. If they angered him and were slain with a single sword strike, even the City Lord probably wouldn’t avenge them.

This was the cultivation world, extremely cruel and realistic.

After Li Feng entered the city.

He wandered around, going wherever there was excitement.

Before long, he heard a lot of news under a big tree.

Under this big tree, there was a storyteller telling stories, surrounded by many people listening. After the storyteller finished, the people around began to chat about recent strange happenings.

“Have you heard? A terrifying demon beast has emerged in the Stone Cave Forest, devouring many Immortals.”

“I heard about it too. It’s said that many disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect went down the mountain to suppress the demon beast, but were killed instead. I really don’t know how powerful this demon beast is, that even the Shu Mountain disciples couldn’t handle it.”

“I hope that demon beast doesn’t leave the Stone Cave Forest.”

“. . .”

Everyone was discussing, their faces showing a hint of worry.

Because the Stone Cave Forest was not far from the city, if that demon beast rushed out, it might attack here.

“Stone Cave Forest!”

Hearing this name, Li Feng felt it was familiar. Before entering the dungeon, he seemed to have heard a caravan mention wanting to go to the Stone Cave Forest to grind.

So he patted the shoulder of the person next to him and asked, “Excuse me, may I ask what kind of place is the Stone Cave Forest?”

“You don’t know about the Stone Cave Forest? You must be from out of town.”

The man looked at Li Feng’s young face, stunned for a moment, then said, “The Stone Cave Forest is the burial ground of an Immortal’s sword.”

“A sword burial ground?” Li Feng’s eyes lit up, and he continued to ask, “Can you elaborate?”

He wanted to fuse his Sword Intent and the God-Ghost Swordsman, and this was exactly the kind of place he needed.

“No problem!” The man chuckled, then rubbed his thumb and forefinger together, his eyes conveying a knowing look.

Li Feng: “. . .”

He was a little speechless, but this time he was prepared. Before entering, he had bought some gold and silver. He then tossed a fingernail-sized piece of silver to him.

“Speaking of this Stone Cave Forest, we have to mention Immortal Tongtian. This Immortal has a great background.” The man, having received the silver, quickly began to explain the origin of the Stone Cave Forest.

◈◈◈

The people around looked at him with envy, but no one interrupted.

Because this was a rule here.

Soon, Li Feng understood the origin of the Stone Cave Forest.

Immortal Tongtian was a Grand Sword Cultivator who had nurtured a Sword Embryo. He was extremely powerful, and at his peak, he almost swept through the entire Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Domain unrivaled.

But no matter how powerful a sword cultivator is, they cannot escape the ravages of time.

When his time was approaching, Immortal Tongtian wanted to live another life. He actively attracted a lightning tribulation, wanting to use it to temper himself and forcefully break through his realm.

But he ultimately failed, falling under the lightning tribulation, turning to ashes.

Even his famous Canglan Sword was shattered by the lightning tribulation, falling into a stone cave and transforming into a forest.

Later generations called it the Stone Cave Forest.

“Where is the Stone Cave Forest?” Li Feng asked.

The man, having received the money, answered readily, “It’s about five hundred li to the southwest of this city.”

He then kindly reminded, “I suggest you don’t go there during this time. The Stone Cave Forest is not peaceful recently. A powerful demon beast has appeared, extremely powerful and cruel, killing many people. Even the disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect couldn’t take it down. If you go now, you’re just sending yourself to death.”

“What kind of place is the Shu Mountain Sword Sect?” Li Feng asked curiously.

These people had mentioned the Shu Mountain Sword Sect quite a few times in their discussion.

“You don’t even know the Shu Mountain Sword Sect? Are you even from the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Domain?”

The man shook his head with a smile, “The Shu Mountain Sword Sect is the number one sect in the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Domain. It has a great reputation and is the holy land of cultivation that everyone in the world aspires to.

If you can enter, it will be like ascending to heaven in a single step, with a limitless future. In the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Domain, if you offend other sects, you might still have a chance to live, but if you offend the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, there is only death.”

Finally, he warned Li Feng again, never to provoke the people of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

“I naturally won’t provoke them.” Li Feng silently remembered this sect. If he encountered them, he must take a detour.

Then, the man sighed, “It’s extremely difficult to join the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. Without excellent cultivation aptitude, they won’t even look at you.”

“That’s right, the disciples who come out of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect are all dragons among men. If only my daughter could marry into it.”

Someone echoed in agreement.

“Stop daydreaming, how could such an Immortal take a fancy to your daughter?”

“That’s right, your daughter’s waist is as thick as a bucket, and she’s dark-skinned. No Immortal would want her.”

“. . .”

Suddenly, everyone started joking again, exchanging the strange news they had heard.

This world did not have any high technology. Their only entertainment was gossiping with each other.

Li Feng stayed for a while, but did not hear any more useful information, so he left.

When he was leaving.

He noticed a few people following him.

Presumably, they saw his earlier generosity, and now these local ruffians were targeting him.

Li Feng did not pay attention to these people. If they dared to come looking for trouble, he wouldn’t mind sending them to h*ll.

He walked straight out of the city.

Heading towards the Stone Cave Forest in the southwest.

He was very fast, covering dozens of meters with each step.

The people behind saw this, and immediately stopped, watching Li Feng’s disappearing figure. They all spat, “Pah, we encountered an Immortal.”

At the same time, they were glad they didn’t make a move in the city.

If they had really rushed up, they would have only been courting death.

🇰🇷🤝) – I Can Extract Abilities

Status: Completed Author: Native Language: Chinese
The world has digitized, and humanity struggles against the emergence of dangerous monsters through the power of "Players" and dungeons. Li Feng, once a top student, suffers a crushing defeat, and his life falls apart following his parents' death. He retreats into the popular mobile game, Hero Legend, where he discovers he has a unique ability: extracting in-game skills into reality. As graduation nears, Li Feng is forced back into the real world, invited to participate in a "Summer Dungeon Hunt" by a group of notorious classmates - the wealthy but weak Yang Wei and Sheng Xu, and the formidable but enigmatic Qin Anran. Li Feng joins, not for the honors or the chance to redeem himself in the eyes of his peers, but to continue his quest for unique and powerful skills from Hero Legend. He aims to extract powerful skills, level up his in-game character, and dominate the dangerous dungeons, hoping to change his destiny and overcome his past. Li Feng secretly levels up in-game classes like Gunslinger and Assassin, combining their abilities in unexpected ways. As he gains strength and rare skills, he clashes with the school's top prodigy, Lin Ling’er, and her team, while also navigating complicated alliances with his new teammates. He realizes that there is more to his unique talent than he initially thought. Forced to confront the real-world Gaokao (college entrance exam) which focuses on conquering real dungeons, Li Feng finds himself using the skills he's gained from Hero Legend and discovering he is a hidden power. His team, comprised of the lowest-ranked students in the grade, unexpectedly excel, despite Li Feng's seemingly detached nature. As they climb the ranks, their team attracts unwanted attention, including animosity from transfer students from larger cities. Li Feng has to find a way to balance his real life and his digital one, but soon, the two become dangerously intertwined. The Gaokao itself becomes more challenging, not only pitting him against other students but also an unexpected encounter with a transformed Dungeon Boss that will test the limits of his skills. He faces the choice between grinding for power, making money to secure his future, or focusing on the needs of those who rely on him. But when a rare item unexpectedly drops in his lap, Li Feng realizes he may not be as ordinary as he thinks. With his secret advantage, can he claim his place at a prestigious academy, defeat the looming threats, and finally take control of his destiny?
