104: Chapter 104 Grand Opening Special Offer

"Zhao Yi, you are too insolent."

Li Yingtang finally couldn't hold back.

"Senior Bai was only offering a kind reminder; there was no need for you to be so aggressive."

Zhao Yi waved his hand and left.

With Late Stage Void Refining cultivation, two Spells at his disposal, and a body protection puppet, what was there to fear?

Li Yingtang glared at Zhao Yi's retreating back, his eyes spitting fire.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I should have killed you back then. I never expected a Death Cultivator could become such a major threat."

"Everyone, who is willing to go and kill him?"

"I am willing to offer one hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones as a reward."

One hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones sounded like a lot, but converted to High-Grade Spirit Stones, it was only ten. Who would risk their life for such a small amount?

Unsurprisingly, the offer was met with silence.

Li Yingtang looked at the Cultivators within the Chaotian Spirit Realm with disappointment.

"I am tired."

"You all can handle the matter of the Baiyu Mountain Spirit Stone Mine yourselves."

After saying this, he vanished from the cloud seat before anyone could react.

...

Anning Prefecture First Cultivation Academy,

Zhao Yi and Fan De strolled through the academy,

Looking at the familiar scenery, Zhao Yi was filled with thoughts; he had spent a long thirty years here.

Fan De also looked at Zhao Yi with a complex expression,

At this moment, Zhao Yi's aura was restrained, and he could not discern Zhao Yi's cultivation level at all.

Half a day later, Fan De could finally no longer hold back.

"Zhao Yi, what is your current cultivation level?"

Before Zhao Yi could answer, he asked again,

"The Cultivator who underwent the Hundred Day Fire and Thunder Tribulation at Mount Heng a few years ago, was that you?"

"It was me."

So many people had seen the Hundred Day Fire and Thunder Tribulation, so Zhao Yi had nothing to hide.

As for the question about his cultivation, he only answered flatly with two words,

"Void Refining."

"Void Refining Realm?"

Fan De was stunned.

The several Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Cultivation Academy, and even the Principal of the Cultivation Academy, were all stuck at the Soul Transformation Stage, unable to break through,

Zhao Yi, the Cultivator who had only reached the Qi Refining Third Layer in thirty years, had actually achieved Void Refining before them?

"Sigh!"

Fan De let out a sigh, not knowing whether to be happy or despondent.

"The Elder's life-saving grace, Zhao Yi has always remembered. Take these Spirit Stones and use them first."

Zhao Yi knew what the Cultivation Academy lacked.

Aside from Spirit Stones, it was still Spirit Stones; otherwise, given the Aptitude of these few people, they would have broken through long ago.

Looking at the pile of Medium Grade and High-Grade Spirit Stones in front of him.

Fan De immediately threw out a Formation Plate to isolate the surroundings and complained: "You are already in the Void Refining Realm, why are you still so reckless?"

Then he looked at those Spirit Stones.

"There must be over a thousand here, right?"

"No, I cannot accept this."

To tell the truth, after Cultivating for so long, it was not that Fan De had never seen Medium Grade or High-Grade Spirit Stones, but over a thousand at once was truly rare.

"One hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, two thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones."

He had taken three hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones and three thousand Spirit Stones from Li Yingzhen. After this gift, Zhao Yi himself only had two hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones and one thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones left.

"Just take them."

Zhao Yi said, not allowing for refusal.

Fan De had helped him, and Zhao Yi was a person who repaid kindness and avenged grievances.

"I am preparing to go down into the mine again tomorrow."

"The position of mining commissioner..."

"Elder, you should know."

"It really does not lack Spirit Stones."

"Of course, these Spirit Stones are a personal gift from me to you."

Zhao Yi added another sentence,

As for the Cultivation Academy, he had very little affection for it; after all, Zhao Yi had almost been forced to his death by those four thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones back then.

Just as Fan De was about to refuse, where was Zhao Yi's shadow in front of him?

...

Baiyu Mountain.

Zhao Yi looked at this endless mountain range, his mouth twitching. When he was in the Chaotian Spirit Realm, he felt something was a bit off,

He never imagined that Bai Dashi and that Wuxiang Sect would actually dare to change a Large Spiritual Vein into a Small Spiritual Vein.

"They really thought I was blind."

"This is called a Small Spiritual Vein?"

"It looks bigger than the Lushan Spirit Stone Mine."

"Or did they think I wouldn't dare to come?"

Zhao Yi looked at Baiyu Mountain beneath the white clouds.

The main mine tunnel had already been found, and the Formation had been set up quite well.

Now, all that was missing were the Cultivators to mine.

Zhao Yi looked at himself.

"Hmm?"

"I seem to be a Miner myself."

Thinking of this, he hoisted the great sumeru treasure hoe, pressed down the cloud head, and headed straight for the mine entrance.

"Zh-Zhao Yi?"

Zhao Yi did not expect to see a familiar face here,

"Bai Yucan?"

"You are watching the mine?"

Zhao Yi weighed the great sumeru treasure hoe, estimating the consequences of beating Bai Yucan to death here.

Bai Yucan, looking at Zhao Yi, was full of vigilance. He had clearly seen how cleanly and decisively Zhao Yi had beaten A-San to death.

A Cultivator in the Early Stage Void Refining had been beaten to death without any power to fight back. Aside from the power of the Spiritual Artifact, it was Zhao Yi's own cultivation.

It was either the Integration Realm or Late Stage Void Refining. Considering the special nature of a Death Cultivator, the Integration Realm was impossible, so Zhao Yi must be in the Late Stage Void Refining now.

Could Bai Yucan deal with Zhao Yi, who was in the Late Stage Void Refining Realm and holding a High-Grade Spiritual Artifact?

Of course not.

So, Bai Yucan ran.

Guard the Spirit Stone mine—how could that be more important than saving his own life?

Watching Bai Yucan's back, Zhao Yi was speechless,

"Run?"

"Let's see where you can run!"

He took a Spirit Stone from his Storage Pouch,

Upon looking, it was Medium Grade; Zhao Yi felt a bit of heartache,

But he could not care about that now.

"Flying Star Technique, go!"

A streak of light shot straight toward the fleeing Bai Yucan.

Boom!

"Ah~"

The explosion of the Spirit Stone and Bai Yucan's scream came at the same time.

"Damn!"

"He's dead?"

With Late Stage Void Refining cultivation, casting the Flying Star Technique, the Spirit Stone actually exploded on Bai Yucan's head.

This power was ten thousand times greater than when he cast it at the Foundation Establishment Stage, causing Bai Yucan, who was in the Early Stage Void Refining, to fall under the Flying Star Technique.

"Then the question arises, how could such a powerful Spell appear in the Cultivation Academy?"

Zhao Yi shook his head, brushing away these messy thoughts.

Mining Spirit Stones was the priority now. He had to hurry and break through to the Integration Realm; he didn't know who the Bai family would send to take revenge.

With Bai Yucan dead, the many Cultivators suddenly became like headless flies.

"What the hell are you all standing there for?"

"Today, the Baiyu Mountain Spirit Stone Mine is having a grand opening promotion. The Spirit Stones dug out do not need to be handed over to the Immortal Dynasty; everyone, hurry up and dig."

"You won't find another shop like this once this village is gone."

Those Cultivators looked at Zhao Yi, and no one dared to enter the mine.

Zhao Yi had no choice but to take out the document and the official seal.

"Cough, cough~"

"This is what the Mining Envoy of Anning Prefecture said."

"Wow, the mining commissioner is so kind."

"Thank you, mining commissioner."

The Cultivators who were originally watching the fun swarmed into the mine tunnel.

As for the few Bai family Qi Refining Cultivators, they had long since disappeared.

"Strange, wasn't the Wuxiang Sect together with the Bai family?"

"Why are there no people from the Wuxiang Sect?"

Zhao Yi carried the great sumeru treasure hoe and entered the mine tunnel.

Because it was a newly opened mine, there was only one main mine tunnel, and with so many Cultivators swarming in, the mine tunnel was truly packed.

"Damn, how is one supposed to dig Spirit Stones like this?"

"Come, come, you all move aside."

In the current mine tunnel, Zhao Yi was the undisputed king.

To be honest, there were not many Death Cultivators in the Void Refining Realm alive now.

As soon as Zhao Yi spoke, the Cultivators in the mine tunnel swarmed to clear a path.

"Come, come, I'm happy today, I'll show you how a Void Refining Cultivator digs for mines."

Zhao Yi's mind was a bit stubborn.

"Trouble you all to help move the mountain rocks away."

"Aha!"

Waving the great sumeru treasure hoe, with one swing, the mountain rocks fell.

The System's notification sound rang abruptly in Zhao Yi's ears.
