Just like that, Du Feng followed the village elder and walked out slowly. On the way, the villagers greeted them one after another, but none of them wanted to work in the fields with them. That was strange. The villagers looked quite simple, but they didn't want to work in the fields with them. Could it be that so many strong men were counting on a little old man to farm and feed them?
As an outsider, Du Feng was too embarrassed to ask too much. He followed the old man to the fields, thinking that he had to do more work and share a part of the old man's burden. The work they had to do was actually very simple. They just had to dig small holes in the ground. They just had to leave the holes there. The villagers would come back to sow the seeds and bury the holes.
"Young man, watch carefully. Just dig a big hole, but not too deep."
The village elder even specially showed Du Feng how to dig a standard sized hole. The hole wasn't deep, only the depth of a hand, and it wasn't very big either. He just saw the old man dig it with a few simple movements. In order to perform better, Du Feng decided to dig a hole that was exactly the same as the previous one.
Bang!
When Du Feng's hoe went down, he felt his arm shake. He looked at the seemingly soft soil on the ground, but it didn't move at all. The village head looked at him and gave a simple and honest smile.
Oh my, it's really a little difficult. Du Feng's temper rose. Previously, he wanted to keep a low profile and was afraid that he would smash a big hole in the ground. He didn't expect the seemingly soft soil to be so difficult to dig. Since that was the case, he had to put in more effort.
"Hai!"
Du Feng shouted and smashed the hoe down fiercely. There was a crisp clang. There was no reaction from the ground, but the connection between the hoe and the iron pole broke. In the end, the hoe flew out, leaving only the iron pole in Du Feng's hand. He stood there in a daze, unable to react for a moment.
How embarrassing. Du Feng was so embarrassed that his face turned red. At this time, a few children came to the field to bring water.
"Big brother, stop digging. You can't dig it."
"Yeah, even my dad can't dig it out. Only grandpa can dig it out here."
"Sit down and rest for a while. You can sow with us later."
The children's words carried no harm. They were all kind enough to persuade Du Feng to take a rest and not to blindly use his strength. Anyway, he couldn't dig it out. But in Du Feng's ears, why did it sound so piercing? He finally reacted. That little boy's physique was so strong, but he didn't come to dig a hole. His father's physique was stronger, but he didn't dig a hole for him.
Didn't that mean that out of all the people in the village, only the village elder could dig a hole in the ground here? If he didn't perform well today, he would lose face in front of the children.
"It's okay. Big Brother has a lot of strength. It's just that this hoe isn't strong enough."
Du Feng smiled and threw away the broken iron pole. Then, he took out his Dragon Riding Sword. The rank of the hoe was indeed too low. It should not be a problem to use the Dragon Riding Sword, which was a high-grade Spiritual Treasure. This was because the Dragon Riding Sword was not only of a high grade, but it could also be injected with essence energy to increase one's attack power.
Who would believe that he was using a Spiritual Treasure to dig a hole in the field? But what happened next was even more unbelievable. When Du Feng stabbed down with his sword, it actually only pierced a millimeter deep. To be precise, it was because the underground soil itself was loose, and there were some granules on the surface.
In fact, he had stabbed the sword into those granules and not really into the soil. One had to know that this was a high-grade Spiritual Treasure, the Dragon Riding Sword. Even if it was stabbed at a Nine Revolutions Immortal Emperor, he wouldn't dare to use his body to take it head-on.
Impossible, absolutely impossible. There must be something wrong.
Du Feng couldn't believe that the soil was so hard. When he stepped on it, it felt quite soft. It must be because of some spatial laws that prevented his sword from piercing through. As long as his attack power was strong enough, he might be able to break through the shackles.
He gathered his strength and injected a large amount of essence energy into the Dragon Riding Sword. There was a dragon swimming on the surface, and purple electric arcs crackled.
"Yo, Big Brother's fire stick is so beautiful."
"That's right, it should be quite useful for starting a fire."
In the end, the children's words caused Du Feng to almost spurt out his food. What the hell, my sword is a Spiritual Treasure, and you actually said it's a fire stick?
In the eyes of the children, Du Feng's Dragon Riding Sword was long and didn't have an axe or hoe. It could be considered a relatively thin fire stick. Furthermore, it was emitting sparks, and it felt like it could be used to start a fire.
"Big Brother, a fire stick can't hoe the ground. Why don't you help in the kitchen?"
Little Shitou felt a little embarrassed because he ate Du Feng's fish previously, so he quickly spoke up for him. He knew that Du Feng wanted to show off in front of his grandfather, but this fire stick really couldn't hoe the ground. Coincidentally, his mother was cooking in the kitchen, so why not let Big Brother go there and help.
"Get out of the way, watch me."
Du Feng was unconvinced. After he filled the sword with lightning elemental energy, he fiercely released a move. He felt that he could blast out a well with this strike. In order to increase the power, he even used a lightning dragon.
"Roar!"
Following a loud roar, an enormous purple lightning dragon boiled out, and there were many thick electric arcs coiled around its body. Just looking at this posture, one would think that he was going to tear down the Endless Region. But when the Thunder Dragon hit the ground, it was like a lit match thrown into a bucket of water. It was extinguished in an instant.
The only trace left was a small puff of smoke. That was really a small puff, and it dissipated in the blink of an eye.
This … Du Feng was speechless and didn't know what to say. He was just bragging in front of the children, and in the blink of an eye, he was slapped in the face. At this moment, his face was red, and it really hurt.
"Pfft …"
One of the little girls couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. When she laughed like this, the other children also couldn't hold it in and simply burst out laughing.
Just now, when Du Feng told everyone to get out of the way and gestured for a long time, everyone thought that he was going to do something shocking. That purple lightning dragon also looked very beautiful, and it felt awe-inspiring. After all this time, it just emitted a puff of smoke, and it felt like this bit of firewood couldn't even be ignited.
Not right, definitely not right!
Facing the children's mockery, Du Feng quickly calmed himself down. Previously at the beach, he even used some dead wood to roast fish to eat. At that time, a little ordinary flame would be good. Why did his lightning dragon become the power of a little flame now?
