Chapter 98: Demonic Monk
Standing in front of the collapsed ruins of the spirit stone mine, Ye Changsheng weighed the three thousand mid-level spirit stones in the storage bag in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
In order to make it easier to put all these spirit stones into the storage bag, he specially converted them into mid-level spirit stones.
Three thousand intermediate level spirit stones equals to three hundred thousand spirit stones.
This time it’s a great harvest!
"It's a pity that the mine collapsed so severely, otherwise I would have been able to absorb millions of spirit stones!" Ye Changsheng muttered.
This time, he directly obtained the resources for cultivation for the next few decades.
Until you reach the Nascent Soul stage, you shouldn’t have to worry about spirit stones.
In addition to the spirit stone mines, Ye Changsheng also obtained some relatively precious things from the storage bags of those he killed.
First of all, there are five thousand spirit stones, most of which were obtained from Xuan Ling’s storage bag.
Then, there are nearly ten top-grade magical weapons.
Among these, most of them are of little value to Ye Changsheng.
Only Xuan Ling’s two items, the fiery red sword and the silver needle, are worth collecting.
That fiery red little sword is the best magic weapon Ye Changsheng has ever obtained.
There are really not many magical weapons that can fight against talismans.
This fiery red little sword seemed to be made from the fragments of a magic weapon and was extremely powerful!
Although the silver needle was slightly inferior, it was not weak either.
This item has unique advantages in launching sneak attacks on people. It has fast speed and strong penetrating power. The scent is very faint when it is released and is not easy to be detected.
Unless one is like Ye Changsheng, who possesses extremely powerful magical powers to protect his body, it would be easy for him to be killed by this silver needle.
What made Ye Changsheng happiest was that he got a kind of elixir that was useful for foundation-building cultivators from Xuan Ling's storage bag.
In this way, he now had two kinds of elixirs in his hands, plus the elixir recipe that asked Han Li to collect materials for, a total of three.
If you only get one more, you can enter the late stage of foundation building without any obstacles.
"Next, we have to wait for the demon monks to arrive!"
Standing in front of the spirit stone mine, Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
He took a look at the situation around him and suddenly took out magic tools and some talismans.
He started hacking around, leaving many traces of a fight.
"Well, there won't be any problem this way. The current situation here shows that it has been through a fierce battle!"
After completing all the preparations, Ye Changsheng stood in a corner, put on a spiritual veil, and waited quietly.
The next day, as soon as the sun rose, not long after, the sound of "whoosh, whoosh..." was heard above the canyon.
One after another, figures landed in front of the Lingshi Mine, full of murderous aura, looking coldly at the deserted mine.
"Ten people!"
Ye Changsheng looked at the group of demonic monks and narrowed his eyes.
Leading the group was a fake elixir cultivator, and the remaining nine were cultivators in the middle and late stages of foundation building.
This is definitely the elite of the evil path.
"If you are not an elite, you dare not go deep into the Kingdom of Yue. Most of these people have some very powerful means, and they may be able to deal with Jindan cultivators. It is better not to be discovered by them!"
Ye Changsheng used the soul-hiding veil to completely conceal his aura and looked coldly at this group of demonic monks.
"Is the news wrong? There is no one here!" The big man with a long scar on his face muttered to himself.
"Brother Che, it looks like there has been a fierce fight here!"
Behind him, a cultivator in the late foundation building stage walked up and said.
"Yes, could it be that there are other colleagues coming here?" the fake Dan man asked doubtfully.
"That shouldn't happen. There are only three teams that have entered Yue State, and the other two teams are very far away from here!"
"That's strange, tell the brothers to be careful!" the fake Dan man ordered.
A group of ten people searched the canyon for a long time but found nothing.
In the end, they could only come to one conclusion:
There was an unexplained fight here, and then everyone evacuated.
"What bad luck! I thought I could grab some spirit stones, but in the end, I got nothing!"
The demon monk walked away cursing.
After they left, after a while, Ye Changsheng came out.
"As expected, the cultivators of the Demonic Path arrived earlier than the reinforcements from the seven sects. There will be no problem now. It is absolutely safe!"
After staying here for a while, Ye Changsheng swung his sword and a flying spirit shuttle appeared, quickly leaving the spirit stone mine.
…
"Junior Brother Ye, are you saying that the spirit stone mine was attacked by the demonic cultivators, and you were the only one who came back alive?"
In the meeting hall of Huangfeng Valley, Ye Changsheng, with a tired look on his face, was telling something .
After listening carefully to Ye Changsheng's story, this person showed a surprised expression on his face.
"Yes, Senior Brother Zhong, I was lucky to escape with my life!" Ye Changsheng had a look of fear on his face.
"So that's how it is. Junior Brother Ye, do you still remember what that group of evil monks looked like?" asked Zhong Lingdao, the head of Huangfeng Valley.
"There are ten people in total, and the leader has a long scar on his face..."
Ye Changsheng described in detail the ten demonic monks he saw.
"So, fellow Daoist Xuan Ling from the Yanyue Sect and fellow Daoist Yu Xing from the Tianque Fortress have both fallen on hard times?"
“Alas, Master Brother, they were targeted by the demonic cultivators and could not escape, and I was able to escape because I discovered a secret passage in the mine that led to the outside world!”
"So that's how it is!" Master Zhong looked thoughtful.
"Hahaha, Junior Brother, you are truly blessed with a great fortune!"
"In fact, two days ago, our Seven Factions Alliance sent an elite team to support you. Unexpectedly, we arrived too late and the mine had already been destroyed!"
"Alas, these evil villains will destroy what they can't get. How hateful!" Ye Changsheng looked heartbroken.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Fortunately, you were smart and asked those low-level disciples ."
"Master, why don't you mention such a trivial matter!" Ye Changsheng waved his hands and shook his head repeatedly.
"Junior brother, you should take good care of yourself from now on. The mission of guarding the spirit stone mine is temporarily over. You may be idle for a period of time in the future!" Zhong Lingdao said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ye Changsheng was immediately delighted, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you very much, Master Brother!"
…
Sitting in his own cave, Ye Changsheng reviewed the previous events, and when he was sure that nothing was missed, he began to practice.
He just went to Senior Sister Chen's place and learned a lot of information.
The states of Jiang and Cheqi have basically been occupied by the evil sect. A large number of cultivators from these two countries retreated to the state of Yue and stationed on the border to confront the evil sect.
At the same time, five or six surrounding small and medium-sized countries sent reinforcements to the State of Yue.
At the border, the multinational coalition forces and the demonic monks are in confrontation, and the situation is very tense.
"The Demonic Path has swallowed up two small countries, and it will take some time to digest them. They should not start another war so soon, otherwise their stomachs will burst!"
"But the coalition forces of Yue, Yuanwu, and Zijin countries do not dare to take the initiative to attack the Demonic Path. They all want to avoid mistakes instead of merit, so the war will not start in the short term!"
"Then, I'll have a few years of peaceful time to practice!"
After taking the pill, Ye Changsheng did not dare to delay for a moment. He quickly refined the medicinal power and began to practice.
