After chatting with the tailor shop owner for a while, Du Feng learned a lot about the Southern City. For example, the southern city lacked all kinds of ores. Therefore, most of the armor was made from animal skin or shells. Metal armor was rare and expensive.
He glanced at the various armor in the shop. There was a semi-hard armor made from layers of cowhide. There were also inner armors that were sewn together with soft leather that was more elastic. There was also a scale armor made from snakeskin or dragon skin. There wasn't a full set of armor made from metal.
Actually, the Weiyang Continent wasn't rich in minerals because of the limited area. The resources couldn't compare to the four continents. The only advantage was that they lived in Level Three Heaven and could absorb more essence force. But there was a precondition: they had to enter the city.
If they wandered outside the city, not only would they not be able to absorb essence force, but their Cultivation would also regress. Therefore, many Weiyang Continent residents never left the city in their entire lives. They just stayed in the city, practicing martial arts, shopping, or running a small business. As long as they didn't leave, there was abundant essence force in the city to absorb, and their Cultivation would naturally increase. As long as their Cultivation increased, their lifespan would increase.
To put it bluntly, the greatest advantage of being born in the cities of the Weiyang Continent was that they could live longer and advance without much effort through Cultivation. In terms of Cultivation realm, they indeed had an advantage over the martial artists of the four continents. Even if they didn't fight for resources, they could reach Powang realm like Hong Waner. Think about the martial artists of the lower realm, especially the martial artists of the lower levels of the East Continent. Forget about the Powang realm, in order to advance to the Qi realm and the Martial Condensation realm, it was possible to fight until one's head bled or even his life was at stake.
"Where should we go to hunt these demonic beasts?"
Du Feng touched the leather armor in the shop. Some were of decent quality. The quality of the outer skin meant that the demonic beasts themselves were not of low level. Ordinary residents couldn't fly to Level Three Heaven and fight level ten demonic beasts with their lives. After all, there were places to hunt demonic beasts in the southern region of the Weiyang Continent, and there would definitely be many of them.
"Let's go north. There are many demonic beasts on the outskirts of Cloud City. Big Brother, you're so powerful that you'll definitely make a fortune."
Hong Waner had actually thought about hunting demonic beasts in the primeval forest on the outskirts of Cloud City in the middle of the Weiyang Continent. However, his Cultivation was not proportional to his actual strength. His Powang State Cultivation was not enough to defeat a Level Eight monster of the same level. He was afraid that once he entered, he would be tortured to death by the demonic beasts within minutes. In addition, he had always been poor, unable to buy good weapons and secret manuals of martial arts. He was basically an empty shell of a Powang realm martial artist. It was fine to scare those who were timid, but if they really fought, it wouldn't work.
"Hmm, that's a good idea. Come with me some other day."
Du Feng smiled when he heard this. Hunting demon beasts to make armor was indeed a way to make money. From the looks of the tailor shop owner, he should have some strength. However, he was old and probably didn't like to take risks. The animal hides here were probably brought by the customers themselves.
"Don't. With my skills, I'll just be sending myself to my death."
Hong Waner was right. The demonic beasts in the primeval forest all liked to eat human flesh. After eating all kinds of wild fruits and beast meat, eating human flesh was indeed refreshing. Usually, martial artists who went in to hunt would be targeted by all kinds of demonic beasts. Demonic beasts of the same level especially liked to attack human martial artists of similar levels.
"There's such a thing?"
Du Feng found it interesting after hearing this. Usually, demonic beasts attacked humans regardless of level. Unless the human martial artist was too strong and scared the demonic beasts away. Under normal circumstances, human martial artists who were similar or weaker than demonic beasts would be attacked by them.
However, from Hong Waner and the tailor shop owner's description, the high-level demonic beasts in the primeval forest didn't seem to attack low-level martial artists. This meant that Powang realm martial artists would only be attacked by Level Eight demonic beasts after they entered. As long as Level Nine demonic beasts didn't provoke them, they would ignore Powang realm martial artists. They would walk past them without attacking.
How could such a thing happen? Was that really a primeval forest? Du Feng was a person who liked to think. He immediately sensed that something was wrong. The people of the Weiyang Continent were long used to it and didn't find it strange. However, as a martial artist from the lower realm, he felt that everything was too abnormal.
If the demonic beasts in the primeval forest hadn't been tamed by humans, how could they differentiate between martial artists' levels? If high-level demonic beasts didn't attack low-level martial artists, this was obviously a training ground specially arranged by someone. If it was a genius martial artist of the same level, he would definitely be like a fish in water in the primeval forest. However, ordinary citizens like Hong Waner who weren't strong enough couldn't enter the primeval forest to hunt demonic beasts.
There were also some mid-level martial artists who could bring along better weapons and enter the primeval forest to hunt demonic beasts. From there, they could obtain some beast hides, beast armors, inner cores, and other materials. Most of the beast hides in the tailor's shop were obtained this way.
"What are the levels of the demonic beasts in this primeval forest?"
Hearing this, Du Feng was already tempted. He couldn't wait to make a trip to the primeval forest and have a good fight. Other than obtaining materials, he could also vent his frustrations. Previously, when he was fighting with Gui Gu Nansheng, that old thing, Gui Gu Lun Hai, interfered and didn't feel good at all.
There were a small number of seventh level demonic beasts in the outermost area, which was equivalent to the Heaven Seizing Stage Cultivation of human martial artists. A little further in, there would be a large number of eighth and ninth level demonic beasts, and even a portion of tenth level demonic beasts. It was said that someone had seen a level 11 demonic beast near the city walls of the Cloud City.
Ugh … Du Feng felt his scalp go numb when he heard this. A large number of ninth level demonic beasts were already equivalent to a martial artist of the Nascent Soul Realm, which was even higher than his own Cultivation. A tenth level demonic beast was equivalent to an ascending realm expert like Gui Gu Lun Hai. With just a single move, he would be unable to retaliate at all. There were actually level 11 demonic beasts near the Cloud City. What kind of joke was this? If these demonic beasts were to attack without anyone's control, then the only thing that awaited them would be death.
Demonic beasts of different levels lived in the same primeval forest, not far from each other, and could even coexist peacefully. If this was in the lower realms, it would simply be inconceivable.
"Let's go, take me to another shop."
