Time flies, spring passes and autumn comes in the blink of an eye, time is like quicksand at the fingertips, and before you know it, Ma Hongjun's sixteenth birthday has passed.
For nearly a year, although Ma Hongjun has been fighting against the ten thousand year soul beasts in the Xieluo Mountains, he has not delayed his cultivation. Instead, he has raised his soul power to level 59 through constant battles.
Although this seems a bit beyond Ma Hongjun's estimate, after all, he once estimated that it would take at least nearly two years to reach level 60.
But Ma Hongjun knew that this was not a mistake in his prediction, but that after he absorbed the soul bone kindly provided by the Crazy Blood Demon Lizard, his soul power increased to the first level.
In other words, his soul power has only increased by two levels in the past year.
It takes an average of five months to increase one level of soul power. This is with the help of two pieces of ten thousand year fire chalcedony, and usually eats energy-rich things. The speed is actually very fast.
After all, the further you go in cultivation, the harder it becomes to improve. Otherwise, Ma Hongjun believes that it would be absolutely impossible for him to raise his soul power to close to level 59.
In the past year, Ma Hongjun has also picked out the other ten thousand year soul beasts in the Xieluo Mountains one by one.
For example, the thousand-year-old yellow-throated marten, musk civet, three-eyed golden pheasant, crested eagle eagle, white-crested pheasant, black and white unicorn, water-leaf blue sword bamboo, etc.
Among these soul beasts, there were some that were particularly hot-tempered and wanted to commit suicide or self-destruct. Ma Hongjun had no choice but to sacrifice them in his and Chongmingniao's Wu Zang Temple.
For the rest, Ma Hongjun generally would not choose physical salvation. After a fight, he would hand it over to the Chongming Bird, allowing these ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts to choose whether to stay or go.
As for the other soul beasts, Ma Hongjun didn't care. He just handed them over to Flanders and others according to his previous plan.
Flanders and others had also arrived in Ma Hongjun's territory more than half a year ago, after the turmoil caused by Shui Bing'er's assassination subsided.
Generally speaking, in the Tiandou Empire, what kind of territory one has, what kind of title one has.
For example, a kingdom corresponds to a king, a principality corresponds to a duke, and a princedom corresponds to a marquis.
Among them, Hou Guo is also referred to as Guo.
Of course, it does not need to be called a country. For example, the territory of Zhenbei Gong Shuiyuntian is the Far North Province, not the Far North Principality.
The same is true for Ma Hongjun's territory, which is called Qingyang Province, not Qingyang Kingdom.
Of course, there are also people like Prince Snow Star. As an imperial prince, they hold great power in the empire, but they actually have no actual territory.
Qingyang Province, after it was finally finalized by Emperor Xueye, covers an area of about 100,000 square kilometers, roughly the same province as Ma Hongjun's previous life.
It borders the Star Luo Empire to the south, the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom and the Silvis Kingdom to the north, the Balak Kingdom and the Star Dou Forest to the east, and the Fasno Province to the west.
In other words, Qingyang Province actually occupies a part of each of the Balak Kingdom, Haagen-Dazs Kingdom, and Silvis Kingdom, as well as the marginal areas of Fasno Province.
After Flanders came to Qingyang Province, he first inspected the entire Xieluo Mountains with Liu Erlong, who had already given birth to a pair of twins, and Yu Xiaogang, who had a pair of nephews and nieces. The area where Shrek Academy will be established was determined.
After that, Flanders returned to Qingyang Town, which had been upgraded to Qingyang City, and formally took over the management of Qingyang Province with Master Yu Xiaogang.
Of course, when Flanders and Liu Erlong went back, they did not forget the villagers of Phoenix Village who took refuge in the Xieluo Mountains.
These people were all supporters of Ma Hongjun, including relatives of Ma Hongjun. After taking them back, Flanders made special and proper arrangements.
For example, as long as the young adults were under the age of fifty or sixty, all those who had developed soul power, Flanders took them to Qingyang City and asked Yu Xiaogang to arrange various positions for them.
As for those older and younger, Flanders brought them back to Phoenix Village.
Anyway, the Wuhun Palace in Qingyang City and the nearby Wuhun Palace branch have been evacuated early this morning.
When these people return to Fenghuang Village, unless the people from Wuhun Palace shamelessly come to assassinate them, it is generally relatively safe.
Besides, Qingyang City is only the size of a town now and will definitely expand in the future.
After the expansion of Qingyang City, Fenghuang Village is almost equivalent to being on the outskirts of Qingyang City, and is very close.
More than half a year ago, when the three Flanders came to inspect the Sierra Mountains, they naturally met Ma Hongjun, who was honing his skills in the core area.
However, Ma Hongjun did not leave the Xieluo Mountains, nor did he go to help build the new Shrek Academy or his territory.
Today's soul master world, as Ning Fengzhi said, is actually no longer as lively as before because of the relationship with Wuhun Palace.
As for those soul masters with good qualifications or good strength, most of them have already joined various forces on the mainland, such as the Spirit Hall, the two empires, the seven sects, etc.
This is one of the reasons why after Ma Hongjun woke up, he did not travel to the mainland first, but instead took the lead in entering the Xieluo Mountains to challenge the ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
It is difficult to find or find a suitable opponent for him, which also means that it will not be of much help to improve Ma Hongjun's strength.
Because of this, when Ma Hongjun planned his five years, he did not include traveling in the human world as his core plan.
In Daluo Continent, in addition to the three wild soul beast forests, there are actually many places worthy of Ma Hongjun's exploration.
For example, the Killing City, the Sunset Forest, the Soul Beast Mountain Range, the Lima Plain, the Wandering Grand Canyon, the seaside areas on the east and west sides, and so on.
In addition to these, there are also large and small dangerous places and ruins scattered across the mainland, which are also worth exploring by Ma Hongjun.
In short, no matter what, it is better than just traveling on the mainland.
You know, when traveling on the mainland, in addition to experiencing the local customs and customs, all you can do is root out evil, hoe the strong and help the weak, and act like heroes.
For example, people like Liu Qingxuan, Long Gong Yu Tianheng, Snake Po Duguyan, and Ye Lingling are actually doing this.
Of course, Liu Qingxuan's martial soul, the Soul-Eating Golden Bell, was born with the ability to capture souls. Even when traveling on the continent, he could practice by eradicating evil and devouring the souls and soul power of villains and villains.
In addition to these, the life and death soul fighting platforms that enter and exit major soul fighting arenas are also one of the most suitable ways for Liu Qingxuan to practice.
Similarly, Oscar and Ning Rongrong, who left the Qibao Glazed Sect more than half a year ago, were doing the same thing.
And this happened almost a year ago.
In the Qibao Glazed Sect, after learning that Ma Hongjun was fine, Sword and Bone Douluo began training Oscar and Ning Rongrong every day.
Especially Ning Rongrong, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo even wanted to teach her everything they had.
After training a young couple for more than half a year and eating dog food every day, even the majestic Sect Master Ning and the two titled Douluo could no longer stand it.
In the end, the three of them gritted their teeth and kicked the two of them out of the sect...
——Please give me monthly votes, thank you all.
