The closer we get to the Mausoleum, the more steep the hills are, and the more jungles to the west." However, ever since the last time the allied forces encountered the bandits, Duke Ming no longer rode in a horse carriage. Many people in the army thought that it was because the bandit leader, Duke Ming, who had never experienced war before, had been scared to death. Only Wei Lian could feel the fear in the teenager's eyes after killing the bandit leader. He had suggested to himself that they change to the carriage. Ever since Duke Ming had suggested changing to the carriage, he had rarely stepped out of the carriage except to eat and rest. Wei was stroking his whiskers in the wind. The son of the Great Emperor should have some potential, no?

Wei Grand Commandant looked at the inelegant carriage and asked: "Did the prince stay inside the carriage and did not come out?"

Yes, Grand Commandant!

Wei Grand Commandant nodded, he could feel that although the movements of the Soul Power in the carriage were very minute, it was very weak.

Ming Prince Wu Ming sat cross-legged in the carriage. His cultivation had practically relied on meditation and medicinal pellets to directly raise his Soul Master, but he had not made any progress since reaching the Soul Master. In fact, all of the cultivation methods were more or less the same. Perhaps medicinal pellets could still be of some use before one became a Soul Master. But once it became a Soul Master, then the symbol of Soul Master would be to form a soul pill, and the medicine would only have a very small amount of support. Sun Xuanqing sat in a disorderly manner beside Ming Prince. During this period of time, he began to teach Ming Prince how to cultivate. Sun Xuanqing said: "No matter what kind of cultivation we use in this world, it is all to sense our own mental strength and soul. If you were on the battlefield, your opponent's strength would be the same as yours. After using up your own Soul Power, who could enter into meditation and recover their own as fast as possible would be able to kill the other party. Therefore, regardless of the situation, cultivators had to quickly enter a meditative state.

Ming Prince Wu Ming stared at Sun Xuanqing. This was different from the cultivation method he knew of. Ever since he was young, his master in the palace had always told him that when it was night time or when the environment was closed and quiet, people would not have any distractions, and quickly entering into a meditative state was most suitable for cultivation. Indeed, the warriors who taught him in the past were all dregs of war. The Emperor of Great Sheng was a powerful cultivator, and the Empress Deng was a powerful cultivator. How could she not understand this simple logic? In the past, he had looked down on cultivation too much. If he hadn't seen the difference between cultivators and ordinary people, he would still have felt that he was more scheming than fighting.

Under Sun Xuanqing's pointers, Ming Prince Wu Ming felt a trace of air flow within his Qi Sea. After sitting cross-legged for a few hours, Ming Prince Wu Ming felt that his stomach had not eaten for a few days. Sun Xuanqing laughed out loud when he heard Ming Prince Wu Ming's stomach: Cultivating would indeed cause one's consumption to increase greatly.

When it was dinner time, he ate five whole bowls of rice. Since the kitchen boy did not have enough food, he could only go to the other soldiers in the army to get some rice from their food. In the army, Ming Prince Wu Ming Jane ate at the same table as Wei Grand Commandant, but he only ate a small amount of food. It was only until they returned to the carriage that the Ming Prince Wu Ming asked Sun Xuanqing: If cultivation would cause people to consume a lot of energy, why does a cultivator like Grand Commandant Wei only need a small amount of food?

In the early stages of cultivation, a large amount of food was needed. When one reached a certain boundary, they could absorb heaven and earth origin energy and turn it into their own energy. Those who had entered the Profound Master realm only needed a very small amount of food, and even several days without food to survive. Not only was there food that could not be recovered after cultivating to the Profound Master realm, there was also a possibility of impurity appearing in the body. This was also the reason why the higher one's cultivation realm was, the less food one would consume.

After more than a month, the army finally passed the border of the destination Changling. This mountain of Jinyun Mountain Pulse was black, and this place was filled with a type of black volcanic rock that was surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. The entire mountain range was filled with large and small puddles, and the smell of rotting plants filled the air. It was said that such an environment was prone to producing miasma. This miasma lingered in the forest all year round. Some of them looked quite grey. It was said that one would be infected by it within a few breaths of time before falling down. There was also a kind of white, fog-like miasma that lingered in the air. This type of miasma was better than the gray miasma, it was the foul aura of the forest. It usually only appeared in spring, but would dissipate in autumn. The color of the miasma was very similar to the fog. Only experienced soldiers were able to rebel. Fortunately, those who were hit by the miasma had a late onset of illness and had different symptoms. Some of them had dysentery, some had dizziness and nausea, and some had died because of it.

Ming Prince Wu Ming had always thought that this time, they would be facing the powerful Savage Tribe. The Berserk Wolves were a race that lived in the Jinyun Mountain Pulse, and the clan itself was not a cultivator. The reason they were able to become an independent force in the Jinyun Mountain Pulse was because they were good at raising a red-eyed wolf. These red-eyed wolves have strong legs, naturally red slanting eyes, long pointed upper jaw bones, wide curved mouth, and a straight tail between their hind legs. It was said that these wolves were specially nurtured and fed as medicine by the people of the Crazy Wolf Clan. When these wolves fought, they would listen to the commands of the Crazy Wolf Clan and become abnormally brave.

The heard the sound of horns honking. In total, there were seven sounds, three long and four short, indicating that the entire Alliance Army would be stationed there to recuperate. A young soldier walked to the front of the Ming Prince Wu Ming's tent and reported: "Royal Highness, the army will be stationed here tonight. Tomorrow, they will gather with the five thousand Black Flag Army soldiers." Please rest early today. The army will depart tomorrow morning.

Yes, Your Highness knows. Thank you, sir. Feng Jian sent the soldier away for Ming Prince and helped him wash up. Although Sun Xuanqing served in the army as a prince's old servant, he did not care about the daily life of the Ming Prince. Not only did Fengjian have to serve Ming Prince's meals, he also had to take care of Ming Prince's washing up. Joining the army was extremely difficult, and it was the easiest way to achieve this in the army.
