14: Sit back and reap the benefits

dragon ascension fruit was dispensable for Li Haotian, but Spiritual Stones were a must. As long as he had Spiritual Stones, this trip to the Secret Realm would not be in vain.

However, the value of the dragon ascension fruit was very high. If sold outside, one dragon ascension fruit would exceed one hundred thousand Spiritual Stones, and it was still priceless on the market.

If he could obtain two dragon ascension fruits, one for himself and one for sale, he would be rich.

It was a pity that Li Haotian knew his situation; being able to obtain one dragon ascension fruit was already quite remarkable.

Li Haotian frowned and said, "If I could kill all these dozen Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators, then I would have even more Spiritual Stones on me."

"No, my current strength is still not enough. Even though I cultivate the Two Forms Micro Dust Swordplay and my two flying swords are used with perfect skill, I still can't defeat these more than ten Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators."

"Forget it, forget it. You guys fight first. I'll wait until you're done fighting."

Suddenly, a Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivator fell dead, with two storage bags hanging on him.

No one was in a hurry to pick up the spoils of war, which happened to benefit Li Haotian.

Li Haotian's divine sense moved, and the two storage bags detached from the corpse and flew into his hand.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Haotian quickly moved to another hiding spot.

Thirteen people.

Twelve people.

Ten people.

Eight people.

As Time continuously flowed, the number of people on the battlefield became fewer and fewer.

Finally, only Five people remained. These Five people were powerful, and they had no way to deal with each other.

Li Haotian didn't dwell on the dragon ascension fruit and quickly left the area. After all, he was loaded with storage bags, and the resources inside were no worse than the dragon ascension fruit.

As Li Haotian flew, he counted. He had thirty-nine storage bags on him. These were all storage bags from Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators! Putting aside other things, just the Spiritual Stones alone were much more than what he had plundered from Tianmen Island.

After flying for an unknown amount of Time, Li Haotian finally stopped. He looked around, and after confirming there was no danger, he began to dig a cave dwelling.

With Li Haotian's strength, a temporary cave dwelling appeared before his eyes not long after.

Quickly setting up the formation at the entrance of the cave dwelling, Li Haotian entered the dwelling and took out the thirty-nine storage bags from his person to count them.

The Spiritual Stones were piled up like a mountain. Upon careful counting, there were actually five hundred and sixty thousand, which was more than many small sects possessed.

Many Foundation Establishment Li Families had been passed down for hundreds of years, yet the accumulated Spiritual Stones were not this much, let alone in the hands of a single Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Seeing the mountain of Spiritual Stones, Li Haotian took out a storage bag, and the System's voice came.

"Ding, a mid-grade storage bag has been detected. Do you want to enhance it?"

"Enhance it to surpass supreme grade."

"Ding, enhancement successful. One hundred thousand Spiritual Stones consumed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a small Qiankun Bag."

Li Haotian was overjoyed. A Qiankun Bag was not simple; it contained its own space and could completely evade the detection of the several Golden Core Cultivators outside.

This was a Qiankun Bag enhanced by himself, and refining it was quite easy.

After refining the Qiankun Bag, Li Haotian found that it was the size of ten football fields inside, which was much larger than a storage bag.

Even the largest supreme grade storage bag was only equivalent to the size of one football field at most.

Li Haotian put the Spiritual Stones into the Qiankun Bag and then checked the other treasures.

"Foundation Establishment Stage Elixirs, twenty-four bottles!"

"This is...? The main ingredients for Foundation Establishment Pills are enough! Not bad, not bad."

"Also, is this Hundred-Year earth milk? Three drops, interesting."

"Nineteen supreme grade magic artifacts? I'll take them back for the Li Family to use."

"So many High Grade magic artifacts? Forget it, I'll take them back to be part of the Li Family's foundation. Anyway, they will all be cultivated into supreme grade magic artifacts."

"These spiritual herbs, there are also six with a thousand years of age. You guys are quite lucky! Why haven't I seen a single one?"

"This is...? Foundation Establishment Pills? There's also this thing. Let me see, three pills? Not many, but enough for the Li Family."

"Quenching Yuan Fruit? There are actually fifteen of these? Good."

"Divine ability jade slip? I'll put this aside for now; I can't cultivate it at the Foundation Establishment Stage."

"These cultivation methods are good! Many can be cultivated to the Golden Core Stage, and the most powerful ones even reach Golden Core Peak! The Li Family's foundation will increase by another point."

"This is...? Spirit Gathering Stone? Spirit Gathering Tree? Holy cow, they actually have these too? They can cultivate two spiritual veins!"

After counting all the resources, Li Haotian was overjoyed. Weren't these resources better than plundering the dragon ascension fruit?

In terms of these resources, Li Haotian was right to come to the Nine Dragon Secret Realm this time.

He just didn't know if he could obtain the nine-colored dragon fruit. The nine-colored dragon fruit could increase the probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

If combined with the Spiritual Stone enhancement, Li Haotian could definitely obtain a nine-colored dragon fruit of a higher grade.

Soon, Li Haotian shook his head and said, "Even if I get the nine-colored dragon fruit, I probably won't be able to take it out. Taking advantage of this opportunity, it's better to obtain more resources and Spiritual Stones."

Looking at his personal homepage, the smile on Li Haotian's face became even wider.

Host: Li Haotian

Age: 115 / 300

Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Peak

Spiritual Stones: 513000

Note: Spiritual Stones can enhance any treasure.

The Spiritual Stones reached over five hundred and thirteen thousand, which was not a small amount. Over five hundred thousand Spiritual Stones could completely cultivate two Golden Core Old Ancestors.

However, if the Spiritual Stones were on Li Haotian, he could definitely cultivate ten Golden Core Old Ancestors. Because with the Spiritual Stone enhancement System, the cost was much less.

After tidying up the spoils of war, Li Haotian took out all the cultivation methods and said to the System, "System, enhance these cultivation methods into the Two Forms Micro Dust Swordplay."

"Ding, do you want to spend one hundred thousand Spiritual Stones to enhance the Two Forms Micro Dust Swordplay?"

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, although one hundred thousand Spiritual Stones was a lot, cultivation methods were the foundation of cultivation. If he cultivated powerful cultivation methods, becoming an Immortal World in the future was possible.

"Ding, enhancement successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Nascent Soul Stage initial stage cultivation method — Two Forms Micro Dust Swordplay."

Li Haotian couldn't help but be overjoyed. He originally thought he could only deduce a Golden Core Peak cultivation method, but he didn't expect to deduce a Nascent Soul Stage initial stage cultivation method.

Even Tianmen Island might not possess a Nascent Soul Stage cultivation method, even if it was only an initial stage one.

According to auction prices, a Nascent Soul Stage cultivation method was worth at least fifty to sixty High Grade Spiritual Stones.

According to the conversion rate, that was over five to six hundred thousand low-grade Spiritual Stones.

The Spiritual Stones on Li Haotian might not actually be enough to buy a Nascent Soul Stage cultivation method, after all, that thing was priceless on the market.

Host: Li Haotian

Age: 115 / 300

Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Peak

Spiritual Stones: 413000

Note: Spiritual Stones can enhance any treasure.

Although only over four hundred and thirteen thousand Spiritual Stones remained, Li Haotian's harvest this time was quite abundant. As long as he digested what he gained this time, the Li Family's foundation could even compare to Golden Core forces.

Li Haotian began to check the cultivation method and was pleasantly surprised to find that the Two Forms Micro Dust Swordplay had gained a combined attack sword formation called the Two Elemental Dust Sword Formation.

If he used the sword formation with his current cultivation, he could simultaneously face ten Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators and also trap an early-stage Golden Core Cultivator for a moment.

If Li Haotian's cultivation broke through to the Golden Core Stage, coupled with two magic treasure flying swords, his combat power would be comparable to a mid-stage Golden Core.

Seeing this, Li Haotian seriously began to cultivate the Two Elemental Dust Sword Formation.

At this time, the outside was already in chaos. Because dozens of Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators had died, the Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators from the Three Great Sects became the most powerful.

The powerhouses of the Three Great Sects did not let go of the two Dragon Ascension Fruits; they just wanted to use the dragon ascension fruits to consume the strength of rogue cultivators. When the strength of the rogue cultivators or small sects was almost depleted, they could reap the benefits.

The Three Great Sects played their cards well, and they indeed succeeded, but the one who benefited the most was merely Li Haotian.
