174: Chapter 174 Please Make Your Choice

After a dozen breaths, Wu Chuan finally felt that something was wrong.

"Master, what do you mean by leaving it to us?"

Zhao Yi smiled but said nothing.

"Today, the Spirit Race has been eliminated."

"Ten days from now, I intend to hold a Cultivator Assembly in the former Great Yin Immortal Dynasty capital, and all ambitious Cultivators under heaven are welcome to attend."

"Go and notify them."

At this moment, Wu Chuan was in the Early Stage Mahayana, Gao Ling was in the Mid-stage Integration, the Maid and the Maid were also in the Mid-stage Integration, and Zhang Shoucheng and Li Shouguang were in the Late Stage Void Refining.

When the Great Yin Immortal Dynasty was still around, Wu Chuan, in the Early Stage Mahayana, could barely be considered a top-tier expert, while the others could only be considered mid-tier.

But after the Spirit Race caused such a mess, any member of the Human Race with a slightly higher cultivation base was captured and eaten by the Spirit Race.

Cultivators in the Body Integration Stage like Wu Chuan, who managed to survive until Zhao Yi successfully completed his Undergoing Tribulation, all possessed great Luck.

Since they had Luck, Zhao Yi was also willing to cultivate them.

"Yes, Master."

"I will go and make arrangements now."

Wu Chuan's eyes revealed reverence; this was the Master he had apprenticed to, truly impressive.

After the six of them left, Zhao Yi finally felt relaxed and had time to check the System.

If he remembered correctly, after achieving the Human Immortal Realm, digging for Top-Grade Spirit Stone seemed to allow him to raise his cultivation by another small Realm.

"System,"

【Miner: Zhao Yi】

【Realm: Early Stage Human Immortal Realm (Insufficient experience points, cannot be upgraded)】

【experience points: 5284 / 6400】

【Reward: None】

"Still need 1116 experience points, which means 1116 Top-Grade Spirit Stone."

Zhao Yi waved his hand, and the great sumeru treasure hoe appeared on his shoulder.

Hm? The great sumeru treasure hoe had actually returned to normal; slaughtering hundreds of millions of the Spirit Race had not affected it at all.

The things rewarded by the System were truly powerful!

Zhao Yi sighed with emotion.

"Approximate, although you are in Dragon form now, you haven't forgotten how to make a living, have you?"

Approximate was stunned at first, then widened his eyes as he looked at Zhao Yi, his eyes full of shock.

"No, Master~"

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Yi: "It means exactly what you think it means."

Approximate darted out from between Zhao Yi's eyebrows, his voice shaking the Void Realm.

"You still want to mine?"

"Oh my heavens, haven't you already achieved the Human Immortal Realm?"

"A Human Immortal going to mine?"

Approximate felt that his brain wasn't enough to process this.

Zhao Yi was a bit puzzled.

"What do you mean?"

"Can't a Human Immortal mine anymore?"

Approximate... He didn't know how to explain it to Zhao Yi, and after a long while, he finally reacted.

"I am truly muddled; there are no Immortal Stone in the Qingling Realm."

If one isn't digging for Immortal Stone, other mineral products basically have no impact on a Human Immortal.

Thinking this through, Approximate said very formally: "I wonder which kind of Spirit Stone Master wishes to dig?"

"The entire Qingling Realm's four types of Spirit Stone—Top, High, Middle, and Low—are all within my grasp."

"As long as you want to, Master~"

"Theoretically, we could dig out the entire Qingling Realm."

"Of course, the premise is..."

Approximate looked at the sky.

"Won't it cause us trouble?"

"Trouble my ass!"

Zhao Yi said disdainfully.

"Let's go~"

"Let's go dig for Top-Grade Spirit Stone."

"Let me see if you've made any progress."

Approximate flicked his tail.

"Witness the Dragon's Roar!"

After saying that, he directly tore through space.

Zhao Yi followed inside.

Then... "Damn it!" "You rascal, it's only a three-hundred-mile distance, and you still tore through space? Are you showing off?"

Zhao Yi was furious; he thought the distance was very far, but he didn't expect to still be in Anning Prefecture.

Approximate acted smug: "Master, look at what you're saying. Besides Anning Prefecture, where else can you dig for Top-Grade Spirit Stone?"

"So the question arises, why are all the Spirit Stone mines gathered in Anning Prefecture?"

Zhao Yi simply didn't take the bait; he was looking at the surrounding hills, which didn't look like they had any Spirit Stone mines at all.

Seeing that Zhao Yi was ignoring him, Approximate lost his nerve: "Actually, this Anning Prefecture was the Immortal Dynasty capital of the previous dynasty."

"Just like the current Great Yin Immortal Dynasty capital, ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Spiritual Veins once gathered here."

"With so many Spiritual Veins, about half became Spirit Stone mines, and one became a Luck Spiritual Vein, which is the immortal fate."

Zhao Yi...

"I was wondering why all the Spirit Stone mines were gathered in Anning Prefecture; so that's why."

"But..." "Does this have anything to do with the Top-Grade Spirit Stone I want to dig now?"

"Damn it, you're so long-winded." "If it really doesn't work, let's just discard this Physical Body and kill you to eat your dragon liver, how about that?"

Zhao Yi frowned.

"Of course not!" Approximate's voice changed.

"Master, please look!" "The Spirit Stone mine is right here~"

Approximate used his dragon head to smash open the rocks not far away, and a cave entrance was revealed just like that.

The power of forbidden techniques shrouded it; it was definitely a Spirit Stone mine.

Zhao Yi shouldered the great sumeru treasure hoe and was just about to go in, but Approximate had a strange expression.

"Master," "You aren't still thinking of going inside to dig for Spirit Stone, are you?"

"Although you have achieved Human Immortal, you can't use Immortal techniques inside."

"An Immortal in the Human Immortal Realm digging for Spirit Stone one hoe strike at a time?"

The image was too beautiful; Approximate was already secretly laughing.

"Oh!" "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Approximate gestured with his dragon claws, "Master, haven't you thought about digging from the outside?"

"From the outside?" Zhao Yi slapped his forehead, "That's right!"

If he were in Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment, one would say his cultivation was low and he couldn't move mountains or dig pits, but now Zhao Yi had already achieved Immortal Ascension.

Why was he still thinking about digging from inside the mine?

At this time, Approximate spoke up; he was increasingly developing a penchant for being fond of lecturing others.

"This is a cognitive barrier." "It's a cognitive barrier set by the Heavenly Dao of this micro-world."

"Master, you just didn't react to it."

Being able to lecture Zhao Yi, Approximate was indescribably happy.

"Of course, if Master hadn't passed the Hundred Deaths Tribulation Realm, you wouldn't be able to dig from outside the Spirit Stone mine either."

"Because you wouldn't be able to deal with the Heavenly Punishment."

Approximate didn't stop talking, and his dragon claws didn't stop moving either; a long mineral vein between the mountain ranges was marked out by him.

"It's this wide, and the depth..." Approximate's dragon claws were a bit aimless, "Let's tentatively set it at three hundred meters."

"Damn it!" Zhao Yi almost threw out his back.

He took a look at Approximate's markings: about twenty meters wide, three thousand meters long, and there were hundreds to even a thousand meters of mountain on top—what kind of workload was this?

Seeing Zhao Yi's expression was off, Approximate tentatively asked, "How about we still dig from inside the mine cave?"

Zhao Yi... "Get lost!" "You move the mountain on the ground."

With free labor, how could Zhao Yi not use it?

Approximate... He didn't expect the boomerang to fly back and hit him.

"Hmm?" "Not willing?"

"How could that be?" "I'll move it, I'll move it right away~"

Thus, in the vast mountain ranges, you could see a small golden dragon constantly carrying away one mountain peak after another.

And Zhao Yi... He held the great sumeru treasure hoe with both hands, "Dharma Aspect of Heaven and Earth!" "Big!"

His whole person turned into a giant one hundred meters tall, waving the great sumeru treasure hoe in his hands; before a single hoe strike went down, the eye of the heavenly dao appeared in the sky once again.

In this eye of the heavenly dao, there was one particularly obvious red dot; that was Zhao Yi's masterpiece from last time.

"Oh my!" "A rare guest!" "I thought you, old timer, wouldn't appear anymore?"

Facing the eye of the heavenly dao, Zhao Yi was not polite at all and directly teased it.

"I won't dig much." "1116 Top-Grade Spirit Stone, once I've dug enough, I'll stop."

"Otherwise, you can just kill me." "Choose one of the two, please make your choice!"
