Ji Tianxing had a premonition.
The fall of the City Lord's Mansion definitely wouldn't intimidate Princess Tianfeng and the Blood Sword Sect.
After a short period of peace, they would definitely take revenge even more fiercely.
Therefore, he would soon have to leave Azure Mountain City.
This was the last time he would devour the Divine Crystal mine before he left.
Whoosh!
As he used the Devour Divine Ability, the black vortex enveloped the Divine Crystal mine and endless seven-colored Divine Power surged into his body.
Strands of seven-colored Divine Power gathered from all directions and weaved into a net in the air.
He was like a bottomless pit that wouldn't be filled no matter what.
One day, two days, three days passed by …
The vast Divine Power was purified by the Heaven Mending Orb and merged into his body.
His Divine Dao foundation became more and more stable, and his aura became more and more powerful.
After reaching the Divine Lord Realm, every level was ten times more difficult than the Heavenly God Realm.
In the Divine World, most Divine Lords would need hundreds or even thousands of years of bitter cultivation to reach the next level.
But Ji Tianxing was different.
The Heaven Mending Orb and the Devour Divine Ability were terrifying and heaven-defying.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Ji Tianxing's strength had reached the peak of the first level of the Divine Lord Realm!
His strength had also accumulated to an extremely high level, and his aura was unfathomable.
He was just a little bit away from reaching the second level of the Divine Lord Realm.
However, there was a bottleneck that he couldn't smoothly break through.
He still lacked an opportunity.
There wasn't much point in continuing to devour the Divine Crystal mine.
He was temporarily stuck at the peak of the first level and couldn't advance any further.
Moreover, the power of the Divine Crystal mine had decreased by sixty percent!
Not only was the aura of the mine much weaker, but even the Divine Crystals in the ores had dimmed.
Therefore, Ji Tianxing could only end his cultivation.
After opening his eyes, he casually picked up a few ores and crushed them to observe the Divine Crystals within.
Seeing the weak light of the seven-colored Divine Crystals, he couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
"I devoured too much this time. Not only did the mine lose a lot of power, but the quality of the Divine Crystals also decreased by half.
I wonder how Qi Huanzhi and his son will react when they find out about this. "
Before this, Qi Huanzhi had vowed that Ji Tianxing could cultivate in Mine No. 9 for as long as he wanted.
Now that he thought about it, Qi Huanzhi was still too young.
Ji Tianxing got up and walked out of the mine.
When he was about to reach the entrance of the mine, he saw from afar that the White Dragon was squatting in the pit, digging with a face full of concentration.
White Dragon dug out one ore after another and took out Seven-colored Divine Crystals.
He held a few pieces of Seven-colored Divine Crystals in his hands, sizing them up as he shook his head and sighed.
"Isn't Master too fierce?
How many days had it been since he started cultivating? It had almost sucked dry the power of the mineral vein!
Look at these divine crystals, all of them look so listless, as if they have kidney deficiency … Sigh! "
Although he had a look of disdain on his face, he still put the divine crystals into his spatial ring.
Ji Tianxing was both annoyed and amused. He asked, "White Dragon, what are you doing?"
The White Dragon was awakened. He hurriedly threw away the ore in his hand, pretending that nothing had happened, and flew over with a smile.
"Master, you're done with your closed-door cultivation? Let's go then. "
Ji Tianxing raised an eyebrow and said earnestly, "White Dragon, I already have 40 billion worth of resources.
This is the first bucket of gold we've dug up since we returned to the Divine Realm.
We don't have to worry about cultivation resources for the next few decades.
Moreover, we have the Five Elements World and so many Source Stones. We don't lack cultivation resources at all.
Why do you have to dig out the divine crystals yourself?
How many divine crystals can you dig out even if you dig day and night for ten days like this? "
The White Dragon humbly nodded and said, "You're right, Master. Your disciple is stupid!
In the past ten days, your disciple's hands are almost worn out, but I've only dug out tens of thousands of divine crystals.
Master, you're powerful enough to plunder 40 billion worth of resources with just a little trick.
Your disciple can't compare to you. I'm full of admiration! "
"Alright, stop flattering me." Ji Tianxing waved his hand and led him out. "We should go."
Not long after, the master and disciple left the Cave of Profound Light.
Qi Huanzhi had been waiting for a long time. He hurriedly led them into a palace and talked in the study.
"Brother Tianxing, you're finally out.
I've heard a lot of news these days.
There are two pieces of good news. Do you want to hear them? "
Qi Huanzhi was beaming with joy. He was obviously in a good mood.
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly. "Go ahead."
Qi Huanzhi said with a smile, "The first piece of good news is that my father came back two days ago.
Yesterday morning, the imperial envoy and eunuchs arrived at the Qi residence and announced the decree in public. My father was conferred the title of Viscount of Qingshan.
The news has spread, and the whole Qingshan City is talking about it.
Our Qi family is famous everywhere and has become a real noble family! "
Ji Tianxing expected this news, so he wasn't surprised.
He nodded and said, "What else?"
Qi Huanzhi continued, "The second piece of good news is that Yuwen Chengkong and Yan Zong died on Black Shark Island. The news has spread to the surrounding cities.
On the night of the incident, the family members of the City Lord's residence quietly fled Qingshan City under the escort of six hundred guards.
The City Lord's residence is now empty, with only a few hundred guards and servants left.
The same goes for the Lu family. Many of the servants and guards have been dismissed.
The Lu family's widow and family members have packed up their belongings and left Qingshan City for their distant relatives in Tianfeng County. "
After hearing this news, Bai Long didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He asked, "You call this good news? We haven't searched the City Lord's residence and the Lu family's treasury.
Those people must have taken all the money and treasures with them when they left Qingshan City! "
"Uh … that's true." Qi Huanzhi was startled. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "However, Brother Tianxing has ten billion yuan in wealth and hasn't mentioned it. I'm sure he doesn't care.
For us, with the City Lord's residence and the Lu family gone, we have two fewer opponents.
The remaining Feng, Chi, and Yuchi families have been watching from the sidelines.
They know very well why the City Lord's residence and the Lu family were defeated.
Now, the three aristocratic families are afraid of us and can't wait to join forces to prevent us from wiping them out …
Our Qi family has finally gained a foothold in Qingshan City. "
Ji Tianxing tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair. He pondered for a moment and said, "A country can't go a day without a ruler, and a city can't go a day without a ruler.
The City Lord's residence is only in name now. Someone must step up and take over the position of the City Lord to maintain the stability of Qingshan City.
Huanzhi, the imperial envoy hasn't left Qingshan City yet, right? "
Qi Huanzhi vaguely guessed something. His eyes lit up and he quickly nodded. "He's a guest at my house. He'll leave early tomorrow morning to report back to the imperial city."
Ji Tianxing smiled. "That's great! Send a message to your father now and ask him to volunteer to take over the position of the City Lord.
After all, this is for the sake of Qingshan City's stability. "
