The top-grade crystal stones which were deep under the seabed happened to be out of the huge barrier of light, so Long Xueyi did not need to enter inside the light barrier.
Chen Xiang, from the induction of the Emperor Crystal, reckoned that the top-grade crystal stones were almost the same size as that of the crystal stones which he had acquired before and were equivalent to 50,000 normal top-grade crystal stones, or worth 500 million middle-grade crystal stones!
Chen Xiang decided that he should come often at the vicinity of Lotus Island in the future in order to find the other crystal veins. At that time, he could also play with Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou at the beach. He felt that it was an extremely good day today.
Chen Xiang waited for about two hours before Long Xueyi returned. She sounded a bit tired: “The crystal stones were very deep but I still got them. I am going to take a break now!”
“Thanks a lot!” Having taken a look after Long Xueyi handed him the storage pouch, Chen Xiang noticed that his estimate was indeed right; the size of the top-grade crystal stone was approximately equivalent to 50,000 normal top-grade crystal stones.
Chen Xiang continued looking for the crystal veins; for him, they were never too many. After all, these top-grade crystal stones were extremely advantageous to him. He could use them to lay out a formation to help him cultivate. However, if he used this kind of method to increase his cultivation, he would have to ask Huang Jintian to help him consolidate his foundation, and that would be extremely painful, but on the other hand, his efforts would be hugely rewarded.
After two days, Chen Xiang was already quite far away from Lotus Island, yet he didn’t find any crystal lode. In the vicinity of the Lotus Island, there were only two veins. If he continued looking, he would need to venture deep into the sea.
“Let’s go back! You already have enough top-grade crystal stones and I think even the Lotus Island won’t have so many!” Bai Youyou said.
The top-grade crystal stones were very hard to acquire. Even though there were many crystal veins, they were hidden very deep under the ground which made it very difficult to sense them, unless you had the Emperor Crystal. However, the Emperor Crystal was countless times rarer than the top-grade crystal stones. The only reason Chen Xiang could get it was all thanks to Long Xueyi, this Little Dragon Beauty who had an extremely powerful divine sense.
Now, Chen Xiang knew why the dragons in legend had so much treasure. It was all because the dragons cultivated Shinto which made their divine sense formidable, through which they were able to sense the treasures that exuded even a weak energy!
Chen Xiang went back to the very same forest where he arrived from the Luo Tian Door. He recorded the coordinates of this place so that it would be convenient for him in the future and he would not need to judge the distance to set the coordinates.
He opened the Luo Tian Door once again, and the moment he stepped inside, the Luo Tian Door disappeared while Chen Xiang appeared in the forest outside the Tianmen City.
He had never imagined that this trip to the Lotus Island would bring him such a huge harvest. If he had been strong enough, he would have checked farther into the sea, and he would have been able to find much more.
The sea domain farther from the land was dangerous. There were various powerful spirit beasts in the sea, powerful beasts like Profound Beasts. Chen Xiang who was only in the True Martial Realm was just an insignificant existence in the endless seas.
If one wanted to travel to other continents, they would generally form a team of 9th level True Martial Realm martial artists and use the safe routes to travel. And the map marking these routes could be bought. So a majority of the time, one could safely cross the seas. However, if one wanted to blindly wander in the sea, he must at least had the strength of Extreme State!
During these two days, the entire Extreme Martial Sect knew that Chen Xiang was the apprentice of Huang Jintian which surprised all the disciples of Extreme Martial Sect. This information proliferated to the entire Chenwu Mainland like a storm.
Especially Yao Haisheng and Xiao Chou, these two apprentices of Chen Xiang who were now peers of Gu Dongchen, Wu Kaiming, and Elder Dan! Now many thought of taking Chen Xiang as their teacher, however, they knew that Chen Xiang would not so easily take anyone as his apprentice.
“Young Martial Uncle, so you weren’t inside the Extreme Dan King Courtyard!?” Gu Dongchen immediately flew over when he noticed Chen Xiang enter the Extreme Martial Mysterious Realm. Now that Chen Xiang’s identity had been disclosed, Gu Dongchen and the others would have to call Chen Xiang as martial uncle even if there were others present.
This also made Chen Xiang extremely happy. He smiled and said, “I was out of the city. Now, what are you going to do next?”
“First we will seal the rift at the One Hundred Thousand Devil Mountains, thereafter, we will annihilate all the demons and devils, and finally we will depart for the Kings’ Mainland. Do you want to go with us?” Gu Dongchen asked.
Chen Xiang said while shaking his head, “Forget it, the whole trip will take a lot of time!”
“But of course, our Chenwu Mainland is at the edge of eastern seas. We are very far away from the center of the Mortal World. A one side trip will at least take us three months, while the entire trip will take half a year.” Gu Dongchen said,
Chen Xiang found it incredibly tedious to travel half a year on the sea. He shook his head and said, “I am not going. I will use this time to cultivate. As far as I am concerned, this trip is a waste of time.”
Gu Dongchen nodded: “I guess, that’s alright. If we could find the method to arrange the ancient teleportation array at the Kings’ Mainland, it would be a lot better. Rumor has it that 100,000 years ago, various continents had a network of teleportation array that extended to everywhere on the Mortal World; it was very convenient. However, in order to prevent demons and devils disperse to every part of Mortal World, many teleportation arrays were destroyed, and eventually, we even lost the method too.”
Chen Xiang had also heard of this. However, even if the teleportation arrays were still there, a large number of top-grade crystal stones would be needed to teleport, which ordinary people could not afford; only Chen Xiang could have so many of these things.
Chen Xiang arrived at the Divine Weapon Shop of the Tianmen City.
“Sister Menger, are the two girls also going to the Kings’ Mainland?” Chen Xiang, lying beside the window, watched at Xue Xianxian and Leng Youlan who were having a competition downstairs.
“They are not going, it’s a waste of time. So I will send them to the secret land of Icewind Valley where they will focus on cultivation! The two have a very strong determination, they don’t want to lag behind you.” Liu Menger smiled and said before her jade-like hand was quietly pulled by Chen Xiang.
When Liu Menger saw that Chen Xiang was secretly trying to caress her hand, she lightly snorted: “What about you?”
“I’m also not going. We, little guys, are not like you.” Chen Xiang said.
“It seems that I will be going alone, sigh! I will be very bored on the journey! However, maybe I could get some powerful martial exercise, so I still have to make the trip.” Liu Menger also didn’t want to go; she seemed to be a little disgusted of the Kings’ Mainland.
Chen Xiang said in a low voice, “How about you take Hua Xiangyue’s help? If not, you can ask my martial nephews, they are stronger than you. You have to be careful as you still have to cope with your Nirvana Tribulation.”
“Alright, I really hate to go that place! I have been there. There is a disgusting guy there! I will ask Xianyue to come with me.”
Chen Xiang said with a laugh, “Who made Sister Menger so beautiful that you could easily evoke every men’s desire to conquer you!”
“You got a big mouth!” Liu Menger spat and said.
“Sister Menger, did the Divine Weapon Sect exist 100,000 years ago?” asked Chen Xiang.
“No, it did not exist at that time. However, the era during which my ancestor established the Divine Weapon Sect, he was a well-renowned figure.”
Chen Xiang once again asked, “How about Danxiang Taoyuan? According to her, it was she who had founded the sect!”
Liu Menger laughed and said, “Don’t believe her lies, Danxiang Taoyuan is a lot older than her! Otherwise, she would not be going to the Kings’ Mainland. If she truly had founded the sect, why would she even care about the martial exercises and records in the Kings’ Mainland Mysterious Realm.”
CHAPTER 384 – KING’S DESCENDANTChen Xiang held a lot of curiosity for the Kings’ Mainland. He thought that if an opportunity presented itself in the future, he would definitely go. And since Wu Kaiming came from the Kings’ Mainland, he was not worried that he would not find it.
“The citizens of the Kings’ Mainland believe that they are very noble. They believe that they are the descendants of kings! To be precise, the descendant of the Mortal World’s first king of mankind, that’s why it is called Kings’ Mainland! The residents of the Kings’ Mainland are really strong. It is vast and has abundant resources. It is not just a mainland that is over a hundred times bigger than Chenwu Mainland, it is also located at the center of Mortal World which is perennially covered by a natural barrier. If someone who doesn’t know the way, tries to go that place, he would simply unable to find it,” said Liu Menger.
Xue Xianxian and Leng Youlan, after having fought until they were soaked in fragrant perspiration, came up. Only now did Chen Xiang let go of Liu Menger’s hand.
“How formidable are they? If an opportunity presents itself, I will go and teach them a lesson so that they will know that no matter how good they think they are, there is always someone better out there!” Leng Youlan loudly proclaimed. This white-haired beauty’s temper was just like this, nonetheless, she indeed had the qualifications to say as such. After all, she was younger than Chen Xiang and also had divine veins!
“Brother Xiang, are you not going?” asked Xue Xianxian.
Chen Xiang squeezed her face before he wiped the fragrant perspiration on her forehead as he said with a smile, “I’m not going, I can’t waste my time! You two are closely chasing after me, if in a million chance you happened to surpass me, I will lose my face.”
“Brother, you are wrong! If your younger sister and your wife are very powerful, you should be proud! You can rest assured, one day I will definitely make you proud.” While Leng Youlan was speaking, Chen Xiang helped her wipe her perspiration and also sort out her somewhat messy white hair.
Thereafter, Chen Xiang spent some quality time with Xue Xianxian in a room where they kissed for a while because very soon, they were going to be separated for some time.
“Brother is always touching senior sister there, does it feel so good? Why don’t I feel like that?” Leng Youlan while peeping asked Liu Menger who was sitting in the hall.
At the beginning, she wanted to call Xue Xianxian, sister-in-law, however, she felt that she was just a bit younger than Xue Xianxian, that’s why she addressed her as an elder sister. However, when she came to know that Liu Menger was also the Dean of Icewind Valley and also her teacher, she addressed Xue Xianxian as a senior sister.
“You are touching yourself, of course, you won’t feel good!” Liu Menger tried to stop herself from laughing. Her face also turned red, obviously, she was well aware of what Chen Xiang and Xue Xianxian were doing inside.
“Next time when we bath, I will ask senior sister to touch me!” Leng Youlan arrived beside Liu Menger and stared at her chest, afterward, she pointed at her own: “Teacher, yours seems to be a little bigger than mine!”
Leng Youlan would usually speak whatever came to her mind and she was courageous as well. Liu Menger had a headache, her face turned red as she scoffingly said, “Little Girl, how can you be so stupid? We both have the same size, besides, what good would come out by comparing them?”
Leng Youlan stuck her tongue out, her face was filled with doubt as she asked, “Teacher, in the past, brother taught me ‘big white rabbit’, is it not this? Now that I think about it, they are indeed white and big as well! Teacher, why would brother asked me to say so? And after you heard it, why was your reaction so big!?”
Liu Menger was completely rendered speechless by this white-haired beauty. She knew Leng Youlan was not someone stupid, however, she was completely oblivious to these matters, and insensitive too.
“You are not allowed to mention this thing in the future!” Liu Menger said in a low voice. As she recalled the time when she had let Chen Xiang look at her chest, those big, snow-white rabbits, she felt shy in her heart, and her face flushed red as well.
Liu Menger suspected that even if Leng Youlan was naked in front of Chen Xiang, she would not feel shy, which made it difficult for her to understand.
Chen Xiang after having embraced Xue Xianxian, parted ways and returned to the Extreme Dan King Courtyard. Liu Menger was also going to leave for some time to send Xue Xianxian and Leng Youlan back to Icewind Valley.
At present, he was going plant some herbs of Five Element True Elemental Dan, Building Foundation Dan, and Elemental Spirit Dan. The Building Foundation Dan was going to be used for selling, while he would use the other to promote his strength. He didn’t know when the Great Battle of the Three Realms going break out, but he must elevate his strength as soon as possible before the great battle starts.
For now, Chen Xiang did not cultivate. All day long he was busy congealing a lot of Golden Dragon Saliva. This would not exhaust him, as while he was in the process of congealing, he would absorb the Spirit Qi to recover.
After the herb garden had been moved to the ring, Chen Xiang did not need to worry about watering these spirit herbs; he left everything to Su Meiyao and Bai Youyou. Su Meiyao herself was an alchemist, so naturally, taking care of these spirit herbs was nothing to her. As for Bai Youyou, as she often stayed together with her, could be considered as knowledgeable regarding this. Because of the two taking care of the herbs, Chen Xiang could save a lot of time.
After having stayed in the Extreme Dan King Courtyard for ten days, Chen Xiang went out to inquire about the state of affairs. Gu Dongchen and Wu Kaiming was not at the Extreme Martial Sect. From an Elder, he came to know that all the experts had gone to the One Hundred Thousand Devil Mountains to seal the rift.
After which they would leave for the Kings’ Mainland and would return after half a year at least.
Since the Herb Garden’s soil became spirit soil, watering the herbs with the divine Golden Dragon Saliva made their growth as fast as grass, which made Chen Xiang wild with joy.
After Heroes Assembly was over, the entire Chenwu Mainland returned to its previous calm. Chen Xiang too holed himself inside the Extreme Dan King Courtyard to focus on planting spirit herbs. In the blink of an eye, three months were over. After having been busy for so long, he finally welcomed the harvest.
“Now, we have a total of 200 sets of Elemental Spirit Dan’s herbs, 150 sets of Five Elements True Elemental Dan’s herbs, and 80 sets of Building Foundation Dan’s herbs!” said Su Meiyao. Chen Xiang mainly planted these, as for the other herbs like White Jade Lotus Seed and Resurrection Grass, he was not in a hurry, so he ignored them.
These days, Chen Xiang was also refining dans. He had refined Building Foundation Dans and Hundred Beasts Dans. He also had many Building Foundation Dans herbs left over from before, while the Hundred Beasts Dans had been almost consumed as he had to feed Little White Tiger and Small Dragon.
“You already have 200 Building Foundation Dans, for now, you don’t need them! And these days you have refined too many Hundred Beasts Dans which are enough to feed those two greedy guys for some time. Next, you should refine Elemental Spirit Dans and Five Elements True Elemental Dans,” Su Meiyao said.
Chen Xiang would often give some Building Foundation Dans to Yun Xiaodao and the others. However, he would charge them crystal stones. But Lian Mingdong, Lei Xionglin, and Lei Zhong didn’t have any crystal stones, they could only owe. Whereas Yun Xiaodao, Zhu Rong, and Xu Weilong were descendants from wealthy families, not to mention, they were the key focus of Extreme Martial Sect training, and they also received a lot of resources from their respective family, so they could still afford.
As for his apprentice Xiao Chou, Chen Xiang simply didn’t care about him because Xiao Chou was from Herculean Family who had his own way to increase his cultivation. As for Yao Haisheng, he didn’t need dans, he only needed alchemy materials, and Chen Xiang would also often guide him a little.
“Three months have passed, they should have reached the Kings’ Mainland by now! The King’s descendants, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely go and take a look!” After gazing at the sky, Chen Xiang returned to the private room and began refining Elemental Spirit Dans and Five Elements True Elemental Dans.
