152: New idea!

Fellow Daoist Long Kun smiled indifferently.

That White Horse Lingzhi was indeed a top-tier Seventh-Grade Spirit Medicine.

Unfortunately, it had transformed prematurely, losing the vast majority of its medicinal power, and was now completely useless to an Integration Stage Cultivator.

Additionally, this item was skilled in the Wood Evasion Technique; after its transformation, even an Integration Stage Cultivator would find it somewhat troublesome to capture.

Consequently, they didn't bother with it themselves, but instead informed the Void Refinement Stage Cultivators under their command.

As Long Kun and the other two were trusted aides of the Body Integration Great Experts of their respective sects, they naturally received the news immediately.

Furthermore, the White Horse Lingzhi was already fleeing toward the vicinity of Tianliu City, which was a once-in-a-lifetime Opportunity for them.

Opportunities must be seized; they absolutely could not wait for the other Void Refining Stage Cultivators from their sects to arrive and act together.

With many monks and little porridge, not to mention being from the same sect, they couldn't risk quarreling and turning red-faced over an unfair distribution of the item.

Therefore, seeking help from the Void Refinement Stage Cultivators in Tianliu City required a much smaller price.

After all, the three of them would be the ones to capture the White Horse Lingzhi, and they would surely provide generous rewards once the deed was done.

As for how the three of them would distribute the White Horse Lingzhi, it was none of the business of those Void Refinement Stage Cultivators.

If they dared to fish in troubled waters, the three of them would certainly not be soft-hearted.

“I see. However, I am not interested in the White Horse Lingzhi, so I won't get involved,” Su Yu said upon hearing this.

Su Yu understood their intentions.

It turned out the three of them weren't capable of detaining the White Horse Lingzhi alone, so they wanted to pool everyone's strength and use their hands to establish a blockade.

This was to give the three of them a chance to capture such a natural spiritual treasure.

However, Su Yu had no interest in this whatsoever.

He had figured it out now; with the System, he just needed to earn Spirit Stones honestly. He should participate less in these matters to avoid trouble.

“In that case, Fellow Daoist Su may leave,” Venerable Long Kun said with narrowed eyes and a smile.

Hearing this, Su Yu stood up, cupped his hands to everyone, and left, not caring at all what they thought.

However, after Su Yu left...

The Divine Thoughts of the Void Refining Stage Cultivators from the three sects began to communicate intensely in the Void Realm.

“This person just left like that? You should know he is at the Late Stage of the Void Refining Stage!”

“And the White Horse Lingzhi can increase his Breakthrough probability by ten percent.”

“Any Void Refinement Stage Cultivator would find it impossible to ignore, right?”

“Heh, it's better that he left. This person's strength is very high; when he clashed Divine Thoughts with Old Monster Lyu, he suppressed him in an instant.”

“None of us could have done it so easily.”

“Isn't it better to have one less powerful competitor?”

“If this person really wanted to compete with us, could we treat him like the others and have him just support us from the sidelines?”

“Once this person joins forces with the Void Refining Stage Cultivators from those seven families, even we might not be guaranteed to win!”

“This person's identity is mysterious; he's likely not from this prefecture. Acting so freely, he's either hiding from enemies or...”

The three had different discussions about Su Yu, but the common point was that it was a good thing he wasn't involved.

After all, no one wanted to oppose such a powerhouse, and there was only one White Horse Lingzhi.

When the time came, the three of them would still have to think about how to divide it to ensure everyone received their corresponding benefits.

As for the people from the seven great Families, it didn't matter; even if the seven of them joined forces, they would only have the upper hand against a Late Stage Void Refining Stage Cultivator.

But before three Void Refinement Stage Cultivators, they weren't worth mentioning.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Su Yu returned to his shop.

Although he wasn't interested in the White Horse Lingzhi, he had thought of a way to earn Spirit Stones faster.

Over the years, he had raised his external incarnation to the Void Refining Stage and sent it to other domains to sell large amounts of resources purchased from the System.

With the strength of the external incarnation, it could escape as long as it didn't encounter an Integration Stage Cultivator.

However, while selling treasures on such a large scale, it also faced countless prying eyes.

In the past few decades, the external incarnation had been hunted hundreds of times, and its strength had reached the Middle Stage of the Void Refining Stage.

With the True Spirit Nine Revolutions Body Refining Cultivation Technique, its seven transformations at their strongest were enough to easily defeat a Late Stage Void Refining Stage Cultivator; though there had been endless trouble over the years, there was no life-threatening danger.

Since a damaged natural spiritual treasure like the White Horse Lingzhi could make countless Void Refinement Stage Cultivators covet it without attracting the attention of Integration Stage Cultivators, why couldn't he mass-produce them?

This way, others would only think he was lucky, rather than thinking he had obtained some great Opportunity.

After all, damaged spiritual treasures weren't rare in the Nine Spirits Realm; once a natural spiritual treasure reached a certain level, it would possess intelligence and know how to seek fortune and avoid disaster.

Even if it hadn't reached maturity, it could transform prematurely to escape capture.

As long as Su Yu was careful, changed his appearance, and moved from place to place...

With a place as large as the Tianliu Prefecture or even the entire Haotian Domain, he basically didn't have to worry about anyone noticing anything wrong.

No sooner said than done.

So, Su Yu urgently summoned his external incarnation back.

A few months later, in Hornet Valley, tens of millions of miles away from Tianliu City, a fierce battle broke out.

More than twenty Void Refinement Stage Cultivators fought simultaneously, turning an area of a hundred thousand miles into ruins; the earth looked as if it had been overturned again and again.

High mountains sank, cracked rocks rose, and the landscape changed drastically.

Fortunately, this was the Nine Spirits Realm, which was much sturdier than the Lower Realm.

Otherwise, a fierce battle like this would probably have caused the Human Realm to collapse.

The chain reaction caused by the spatial collapse alone would have been enough for the Human Realm to suffer.

But in the Nine Spirits Realm, even a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator would find it difficult to tear space apart.

However, that White Horse Lingzhi seemed to have been snatched by a Peak Void Refining Stage Cultivator from the Hehuan Sect.

It was said that the person was the most senior Cultivator in the Hehuan Sect.

While taking the item, he was besieged by dozens of Cultivators of the same rank, even though five or six fellow disciples shared the pressure for him.

He alone bore most of the firepower.

There were five Late Stage Void Refining Stage Cultivators besieging him!

It was said that his Physical Body had perished, and only his Nascent Soul escaped with the White Horse Lingzhi.

However, with the skills of a Void Refinement Stage Cultivator, reconstructing a Physical Body was quite simple and didn't require Possession at all.

It was just unknown whether this existence could step into the Body Integration Stage after obtaining the White Horse Lingzhi.

And change the current situation of the Hehuan Sect being suppressed.

But none of this was Su Yu's concern.

A few years later, the external incarnation took several super teleportation arrays to return to Tianliu City and met with Su Yu quietly.

In a secret room, Su Yu looked at the external incarnation before him, which exuded a dense Evil Qi, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

How many people did this external incarnation kill to have so much Evil Qi?

Then, he read the memories of the external incarnation and discovered that it had killed more than twenty Void Refinement Stage Cultivators of the same Realm.

Among them was one at the Late Stage of the Void Refining Stage.

However, these Void Refinement Stage Cultivators didn't carry all their wealth with them, and in most cases, the external incarnation had to flee after counter-killing.

Therefore, the Spirit Stones obtained from killing the Void Refining Stage Cultivators weren't that many.

Only less than fifty billion Spirit Stones.

Combined with the items resold from the System Mall, he had only earned eighty billion Spirit Stones over the years.

But the level of danger made even Su Yu feel it was incredibly perilous.

Fortunately, the external incarnation was a Body Cultivator; had it been him, he probably would have been injured countless times.

There was even the possibility of perishing.

During that time, someone even used a trump card bestowed by an Integration Stage Cultivator.

The power of that single strike shattered space.

The external incarnation even had half of its Physical Body severed by spatial fragments and was swallowed into the Void Realm.

If it hadn't been for the True Spirit Nine Revolutions transforming into a Vermilion Bird and the Yin Body bearing most of the damage, the external incarnation would likely have perished in the spatial rift.

“You've worked hard.”

Even though they shared the same Divine Soul, Su Yu couldn't help but speak.

Then, he converted all of the external incarnation's Spirit Stones into immortal purchase coins and raised the external incarnation's cultivation to the Late Stage of the Void Refining Stage.

It took about ten years for the external incarnation to fully absorb this surge in cultivation.

Now, the external incarnation's strength was very close to Su Yu's original body.

Su Yu added another dozen or so Restrictions to the external incarnation before taking out some treasures from the System Mall, intentionally damaging them before handing them over to the external incarnation.

He also prepared several trump cards for the external incarnation.
