Becoming an immortal and ancestor begins with the golden toad spitting out money.

Chapter 88 Top-Grade Spiritual Materials, The Wang Family Agreement

Seeing the treasures gush out, the people present had different expressions, but they were able to suppress their greed.

Not long after, another wave of spiritual materials was swept into the sky by the death tornado from the cave.

"A fragment of a mid-grade Earth Yang Stone!"

"A stone gall that may contain the Earth Yang Spirit Liquid!"

"Low-grade Yang-type Jade Iron!"

Even a low-grade Earth Yang Spirit Liquid can be sold for three strands of divine power with just one drop, and a handful is worth hundreds of strands of divine power.

As for Yang-type jade iron, it is a Yang-type spiritual material nurtured by the Yang energy of the earth. It is a primary material for forging offensive spiritual weapons. Because Yang-type materials are rare, even a piece the size of a finger is worth hundreds of strands of divine power.

The Qian family cultivator was the first to fly out, his target being the egg-sized piece of yang jade iron.

The Ren family cultivators then rose up, their target being the stone gall.

Zhao, the head镖师 (bodyguard/escort), subconsciously licked his lips, then said to the remaining people, "Miss Mo's treasures are scattered. Why don't we find them and earn a favor in return?"

These words did persuade the two day-roaming spirit soldiers. Rather than doing nothing here, they decided to help Mo Linglong collect the treasures...

So Zhao the镖头 (bodyguard) and the two day-roaming spirit soldiers flew away, leaving only Su Ji and the Wang family cultivator behind.

Su Ji continued to gaze at the source of the death tornado. Not to mention that all those treasures combined were not worth a thousand strands of divine power, Su Ji should stay here and wait for Mo Linglong's return for the sake of their agreement.

Not to mention, Su Ji also has the title of "a disciple of the Xuanmen Daoist sect" outside.

The Wang family cultivators looked up at the sky, seemingly admiring the scenery, or perhaps observing the direction in which the treasures were falling.

Then, the Wang family cultivator asked casually, "Fellow Daoist Jin, do you think there are any high-grade spiritual materials at the bottom of the cave?"

Su Ji replied without hesitation, "Even ordinary spiritual realms have the potential to nurture high-grade spiritual materials, let alone the Great Sun Spiritual Realm."

"Although the City God Temple had cleared out the Great Sun Spirit Realm beforehand, the area beneath the Death Tornado was untouched by anyone. It likely contained high-grade spiritual materials, and possibly more than one!"

Even with Su Ji's help, Mo Linglong still took a huge risk, and the treasure she sought must be extremely valuable.

At this moment, the Wang family cultivator suddenly smiled: "In that case, wouldn't the number one spot on the Human Ranking be none other than Miss Mo Linglong?"

Su Ji is currently ranked first on the Human Ranking. He obtained a treasure worth 1,160 strands of divine power from the Spirit Realm. It seems like a lot, but it can be compared to a single high-grade Earth Yang Spirit Material.

Not to mention, Mo Linglong is currently third on the Human Ranking, not far from the number one spot.

Su Ji simply smiled calmly: "If Fellow Daoist Mo can surpass me and become number one on the Human Ranking, it will only add a bit more challenge for me. I believe I can surpass her!"

Even if you consistently occupy the top spot on the leaderboard, others will take it for granted. Only when there is competition on the leaderboard will there be more discussion.

Moreover, the more treasures Mo Linglong unearthed from this deadly tornado, the greater Su Ji's expectations for the other Earthly Spring Eye became, which was the source of his confidence.

The Wang family cultivator was taken aback at first, then exclaimed in admiration, "Fellow Daoist Jin truly lives up to the reputation that our ancestor has mentioned many times. Not only is he broad-minded, but he also possesses extremely strong self-confidence..."

"However, if Miss Mo Linglong acquires too many treasures, it will still be difficult for you to keep up. I wonder if you would be willing to cooperate with me?"

The ancestor mentioned by the Wang family cultivators was none other than the long-established, highly skilled spirit general of the City God Temple.

Su Ji couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart.

Last night, the spirit general of the City God Temple suddenly appeared in the Ghost Market and spent 420 strands of divine power to buy the mid-grade Earth Yang Stone.

Now it seems that this is not a simple gesture of goodwill, but rather a matter of cooperation with this Wang family cultivator.

Su Ji then asked with great curiosity, "Fellow Daoist Wang is so confident, could it be that the item you are seeking in this collaboration is also a top-grade spiritual material?"

Since the City God Temple Fair began, the most valuable treasure has been Mo Linglong's mid-grade Lotus Yang Fire Seed; so far, no one has found a high-grade spiritual material in the Spirit Realm. Mo Linglong has entered the source of the Death Tornado, and Su Ji is preparing to excavate the Earth Yang Spring. The Wang family cultivators naturally have their own methods as well.

"Fellow Daoist Jin, this matter is a family secret. Only if you agree to cooperate can you learn the full details..."

Su Ji also wanted to know what the Wang family was up to, so he said, "Alright, I agree to cooperate with Fellow Daoist Wang!"

In Su Ji and Yan Tianchou's view, this partner was not just a member of the Wang family, but the entire Wang family.

Seeing that no one was around, the Wang family cultivator kept it brief and said, "It is said that the Death Tornado poured out the power of the Earth Yang Spiritual Vein, causing the Great Sun Spiritual Realm to nurture far fewer spiritual materials."

"And for this reason, the Great Sun Spiritual Realm has gained a rare spiritual material that ordinary cultivators have never even heard of—Earth Yang Mica!"

As he said this, the Wang family cultivator looked up at the sky: "Although the Earth Yang Cloud Mother has the words 'Earth Yang' in its name, it is imbued with a trace of the heavens. Once it is formed, it is a top-grade spiritual material."

"Although the City God Temple never misses an opportunity to collect mica from the ground, it is difficult to get close to the area above the deadly tornado."

"If Fellow Daoist Jin can use mystical techniques to open a safe passage for me, I will have the opportunity to collect Earth Yang Mica using secret methods..."

"When the time comes, you can keep all the spoils as you try to climb the rankings. Just make a vow, and we'll split the profits 30/70 after we get out!"

The Wang family provided the secrets and also had the secret method for collecting mica, so it's normal for them to take 70%.

Although Su Ji could learn the secret method of collecting mica on the spot and use it as a bargaining chip to increase his share, he might not be tolerated by the Wang family.

Yan Tianchou did not make this suggestion, and Su Ji also secretly rejected it. Then he smiled and said, "If we don't use your Earth Yang Mica to break through the Human Ranking, can we get an extra 10%?"

The Wang family cultivator was taken aback, then said somewhat helplessly, "If Fellow Daoist Jin doesn't need my Earth Yang Cloud Mother to break through the Human Ranking... then I'll give up half a percent at most!"

A 40/60 split is the bottom line for the Wang family. The less they give, the more they earn. Giving up half a percent is like cutting off a piece of their own flesh.

Su Ji couldn't help but smile: "Then it's a deal!"

After reaching an agreement, the two parties couldn't help but smile at each other.

There are no restrictions on telepathic communication; it only depends on the reactions of both parties' consciousness, so it doesn't take long.

Not long after, sounds came from the cave again.

"Bang... bang..."

Before long, some more treasures were swept out by the death tornado, the most precious of which was only a small piece of mid-grade earth yang stone.

In the distance, five cultivators, having just caught up with their desired treasures, are now flying into the sky, their target being the treasures that have not yet landed.

Su Ji's expression suddenly changed slightly, and then even the Wang family cultivators noticed something was wrong. The death tornado was spewing out not only treasures, but also a strange mist.

Although they are water droplets, they are like bright pearls radiating a warm glow; although they are mist, they are like a luminous nebula.

"Earthly Yang Spiritual Water!" Both of them were greatly surprised.

The most distinctive feature of the Earth Yang Spiritual Vein is the Earth Yang Spiritual Water, which can not only condense Earth Yang Spiritual Liquid, but also nurture countless Earth Yang Spiritual Materials.

The Wang family cultivator exclaimed with delight, "Could it be that Miss Mo Linglong has opened up the Earth Yang Spirit Vein, making it possible for the Earth Yang Spring to gush forth Earth Yang Spirit Water again?"

After sensing the earth yang water mist below, Su Ji slowly shook his head: "This water mist has no lingering effect. It should just be that Fellow Daoist Mo happened to come across a pool of earth yang spiritual water."

Sure enough, after a wave of water mist was sprayed into the sky along with the death tornado, there was no more movement in the cave.

The Wang family cultivators were not too disappointed and still smiled, saying, "Although there isn't much Earth Yang Spirit Water, it has made collecting Earth Yang Mica easier. Our harvest this time will definitely far exceed our expectations!"
