You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"You've actually collected so many spirit stones in just over 20 days." Chen Huai'an looked at the Yin Puppet Yang Fei in front of him, a look of surprise on his face.

Chen Huai'an refined a batch of Body Refining Pills in his spatial dimension, further improving his alchemy skills. Becoming an alchemy master in the future is not impossible. And now, Yang Fei's appearance has brought him another 5 low-grade spirit stones.

In just over 20 days, Yang Fei and his Yin puppets mined 5 low-grade spirit stones for him. That speed was terrifying.

To complete the sect mission, Chen Huai'an only needs to hand over 3000 low-grade spirit stones, which will be considered a successful completion of the sect mission, and he will receive an additional reward of 100 low-grade spirit stones.

Chen Huai'an naturally didn't care about this reward, but in order to establish himself in Qingyun Sect in the future, he still had to give up some benefits.

Chen Huai'an currently has nearly 20 low-grade spirit stones. If he were to refine all of these spirit stones into high-grade spirit stones, his future cultivation path would be absolutely smooth.

Even if Chen Huai'an only wanted to buy some pills suitable for Golden Core Realm experts, with his current wealth, he could get them. This would be the most terrifying fortune of his life.

He now has a lot of spirit stones, but he needs to make good use of these resources in order to maximize his profits.

"My goodness, you actually mined so many low-grade spirit stones!" At the mine exit, the inner disciple responsible for checking storage bags was shocked to see that Chen Huai'an's storage bag was full of spirit stones.

"Senior brother, I spent more than 20 days in the mine collecting these spirit stones," Chen Huai'an said calmly, seeing that the other party's shout had attracted a lot of attention.

"Oh, so it was more than 20 days. I thought you had collected so many spirit stones in just a few days." After hearing Chen Huai'an's explanation, the inner disciple who was at the Foundation Establishment stage was no longer so shocked. If he could mine thousands of low-grade spirit stones in just a few days, he would want to become a miner.

Even so, Chen Huai'an has earned over 100 low-grade spirit stones in the past few days. For an outer sect disciple, 100 low-grade spirit stones is a considerable fortune. This is only one aspect; there are also the contribution points awarded by the sect, which cannot necessarily be bought with spirit stones.

In summary, Chen Huai'an's mining of spirit stones in the mine yielded not just 100 low-grade spirit stones, but 400 sect contribution points.

Sect contribution points are rewards you can earn by making certain contributions to the sect.

"Junior Brother Chen, I heard you stayed in the mine for more than 20 days this time, and you actually brought out 3000 low-grade spirit stones. You really went all out." When Han Mu, the fat man, saw Chen Huai'an come out of the mine, he couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. No one knew better than him that entering the mine to mine spirit stones was not as simple as they imagined.

The sect set a target of 100 low-grade spirit stones per day for these outer disciples. Many of these outer disciples have never done mining work before. At most, they can only mine 70 or 80 low-grade spirit stones a day, which is far from enough to reach 100.

Only a master like Han Mu, who is at the late stage of Qi Refining, has the strength to mine 100 low-grade spirit stones a day. Even so, he is exhausted like a dead dog every day.

"Senior Brother Han, it was all just luck. I ended up in a side path with lots of spirit stones, which is how I was able to complete the sect's mission. Otherwise, I would have been punished by the sect again." Chen Huai'an smiled.

If he had known that taking out so many spirit stones after leaving the mine would cause quite a stir, he would have only taken out a little over 3000 low-grade spirit stones, which would have allowed him to earn a few hundred more low-grade spirit stones.

However, since it has already happened, there is no use in regretting it. As long as he has not left the Qingyun Mountain mine, he can continue to do such things.

"Oh, by the way, Junior Brother Chen, have you been feeling unwell these past few days? Have the Yin Sha Sect people come looking for trouble with you?" Han Mu asked Chen Huai'an.

"I'm perfectly safe inside the mine. The disciples of the Yin Sha Sect wouldn't dare to cause me any trouble, would they?" Chen Huai'an was a little surprised when Han Mu asked this question. If what Han Mu said was true, the Qingyun Mountain Mine would probably change hands again.

"It's hard to say. I received information that the Yin Sha Sect disciples are quite active outside the mine. We've collected so many spirit stones recently, the enemy should already know, and they will definitely make a move." Han Mu frowned. Once the Yin Sha Sect disciples attack, their disciples in the mine will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

"The mine will be very dangerous during this period." Chen Huai'an also realized that the situation was somewhat dangerous.

"I've run out of cultivation resources lately. Do you know any ways you can help me get some more?"

"A hundred or so low-grade spirit stones can indeed buy some cultivation resources." Han Mu also knew that Chen Huai'an had made a fortune from the mine this time, and now he wanted to exchange these spirit stones for cultivation resources.

"If you want it, you can only go to the nearby market."

"Would it be dangerous to go to the nearby market?" Although Chen Huai'an really wanted to get some cultivation resources, he was also worried about saving his own life.

He bears the mark left by a Foundation Establishment Realm expert from the Yin Sha Sect. If he were to go out now, even if he were to act discreetly, he would still be targeted by experts from the Yin Sha Sect, and the danger level would increase exponentially.

"There is a market town three hundred miles away. It is a large market town, but because the journey is long, the probability of encountering Yin Sha Sect disciples on the way is much higher. However, if we travel at full speed, it will only take a few hours. A round trip in a day is not a problem." Han Mu naturally saw Chen Huai'an's hesitation and couldn't help but sigh.

In response to the crisis facing the Yin Sha Sect, the Qingyun Sect has issued a bounty: anyone who kills a Yin Sha Sect disciple at the early stage of the Qi Refining Realm will receive one hundred low-grade spirit stones and one thousand sect contribution points.

If they could kill a mid-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivator, they would receive 500 low-grade spirit stones and 2,000 sect contribution points. A late-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivator would yield 1,000 low-grade spirit stones and 3,000 sect contribution points. Just one trip out and casually killing a few Yin Sha Sect disciples at the Qi Refining Realm would earn them more than mining spirit stones in the mines.

"Alright, mining spirit stones all the time isn't sustainable. Today, I'll risk my life to accompany you to this market." Chen Huai'an didn't hesitate much. He knew that risks and opportunities coexisted. If he wanted to survive in the cultivation world, hiding in the shadows wasn't a good thing. He had to act when the time was right.

Cultivation resources don't just fall from the sky; you have to have the courage to fight for them.

Because cultivation is inherently going against the will of Heaven.

"Alright, go pack your things. You just came out of the mine, so you need to prepare some things. I'll also take a few people with me, and then we'll go to Moonview Market together," Han Mu said to Chen Huai'an with a smile.
