Within the seventh hall of the Mo clan, Jianchen and Shen Jian sat on the ground as they went through their harvest. They tossed the several hundred Space Rings on the ground casually. On the other side, a large number of divine crystals had been divided into three piles according to their grades. They had already piled up into a small mountain. Dense origin energy lingered around the three piles of divine crystals, forming a thin layer of mist.
At this moment, the origin energy was so dense that there was no need for them to absorb the energy within the divine crystals. Just by sitting around the three piles of divine crystals, they progressed at an extremely terrifying rate.
There were fewer low grade divine crystals in the three piles of divine crystals. Most of them were mid grade divine crystals, and there were quite a few high grade divine crystals as well. The most eye-catching one was a head-sized high grade divine crystal at the very top of the pile.
The standard size of a divine crystal was around the size of a finger, equivalent to a centimeter square. If a fist-sized divine crystal was cut open, it could be cut into several dozen or even several hundred standard divine crystals. Based on this calculation, a head-sized high grade divine crystal was equivalent to several thousand standard high grade divine crystals.
Several thousand high grade divine crystals were equivalent to several hundred thousand mid grade divine crystals and several tens of millions of low grade divine crystals. Just this head-sized divine crystal was a tremendous amount of wealth to Jianchen and the others.
Shen Jian picked up the head-sized divine crystal and rubbed it lovingly. He clicked his tongue, "I never thought that our harvest would be so great this time. Just the value of this divine crystal is far greater than what you obtained last time."
Jianchen also looked at the huge high grade divine crystal. He nodded, "If we use this high grade divine crystal for cultivation, it'll be a little too wasteful. It feels like we're wasting a heavenly treasure. In my opinion, we should exchange it for low grade divine crystals. With our current level of cultivation, using low grade divine crystals to cultivate is most worth it."
The difference between each grade of divine crystal was a hundred times more valuable. However, this did not mean that the origin energy within a mid grade divine crystal was a hundred times denser than a low grade divine crystal. In reality, the origin energy within a mid grade divine crystal was only several times more than a low grade divine crystal, but it would not exceed ten times at most. It was only because the origin energy within mid grade divine crystals was much purer than low grade divine crystals. The purer the origin energy within a divine crystal was, the more valuable the divine crystal would be. This was why the price of each grade of divine crystal was a hundred times greater, while the origin energy within was only several times more.
Moreover, there was another reason. The higher one's cultivation was, the higher the grade of divine crystals they needed to cultivate with. If a Divine King wanted to cultivate with divine crystals, they would need to use high grade divine crystals or even supreme grade divine crystals at the very least. If they used mid grade divine crystals or low grade divine crystals, the effects would be negligible. It would not even be as effective as absorbing origin energy from the surroundings.
As a result, the higher the grade of divine crystals, the more valuable they would be!
"Let's keep this high grade divine crystal for now. We can decide whether to use it or exchange it for low grade divine crystals in the future," said Jianchen. As soon as he said that, he became stunned. He looked into the distance.
A bald, middle-aged man had appeared there silently. He was the ancestor of the Mo clan.
Mo Ling glanced past the three piles of divine crystals on the ground, and a smear of surprise appeared in his eyes. He clasped his fist and said, "Brother Jianchen, brother Shen Jian, may I ask if everything went smoothly?"
Jianchen and Shen Jian both understood that Mo Ling was referring to whether they had succeeded in killing the ancestor of the Lu family.
"The powerful clans of the Dong 'an province have already learnt about the high grade divine crystal mine of the Lu family. The Lu family has gathered several Gods now, so we don't have the opportunity to do anything," said Jianchen. His voice was filled with pity.
Mo Ling became stern. He walked over to Jianchen's side and sat down like Jianchen. He said, "The Gods of the Dong 'an province have all gathered in the Lu family. This is extremely disadvantageous for us. With the Lu family's strength, they'll definitely have to hand over the mine. However, they'll benefit quite a lot from the powerful clans as well. What I worry about the most is whether the Lu family will use those powerful clans to deal with our Mo clan."
Jianchen and Shen Jian both became stern when they heard that.
After a moment of silence, Mo Ling shook his head again, "Perhaps I'm overthinking things. The Lu family wants the Duanmu Divine King's jade the most. Although they can get the powerful clans to deal with us, they're also worried that we'll leak the information about the Duanmu divine king's jade to those powerful clans. Once those powerful clans learn about the secret of the Duanmu divine king's jade, they might even turn against the Lu family in order to protect the secret of the Duanmu divine king's jade. It's extremely likely that the Lu family and the Ando clan will be wiped out. The Lu family won't dare to take this risk."
"It doesn't matter whether the Lu family is willing to take this risk or not. What we need to do right now is increase our strength as much as possible. As long as we're powerful enough, even the powerful clans of the Dong 'an province won't be able to do anything to us," Jianchen said sternly.
Mo Ling left very soon. Jianchen and Shen Jian both entered seclusion after counting the divine crystals. Shen Jian wanted to break through to late Deity as soon as possible, while Jianchen could not make any progress with his Chaotic Body. All he could do was continue comprehending the Laws of the Sword.
On the second day after Jianchen and Shen Jian entered seclusion, the news that a high grade divine crystal mine had appeared in the Dark Cloud Mountains spread to the outside world. It caused quite an uproar in the Dong 'an province. All the powerful clans in the province sent their Gods personally to the Lu family.
The Lu family felt very powerless in the face of this situation. The six clans that had come to the Lu family in the first batch could only be regarded as mediocre or inferior clans in the Dong 'an province. These mediocre clans still maintained some basic courtesy towards the Lu family, basically inviting them to work together. At that time, the high grade divine crystal mine belonged to the Lu family. However, when the three most powerful clans of the Dong 'an province arrived, the Lu family's rights to the high grade divine crystal mine were directly stripped away.
The Lu family did not become angered by this. They had expected this to happen long ago, so they had mentally prepared themselves.
After the high grade divine crystal mine of the Lu family was taken away by the three most powerful clans in the Dong 'an province, the Gods that had gathered in the Lu family all returned to the provincial city. They continued to discuss the distribution of the high grade divine crystal mine.
Even if the three most powerful clans in the Dong 'an province worked together, they would not be able to claim the mine for themselves because there were over a dozen powerful clans of various sizes in the Dong' an province. Even if the weaker clans worked together, they would still be able to cause great pressure to the most powerful clans.
After all, the reason why they could become the most powerful clans was because they had a late God ancestor. If they offended too many Gods, they would not be able to handle it.
At the same time, the Dark Cloud Mountains were completely taken over by the Dong 'an province. The three most powerful clans each sent a God to personally oversee the situation, while all the people of the Lu family had left the mountains.
At this moment, the ancestor of the Lu family, Lu Tian, sat on the patriarch's seat with a sunken face in the discussion hall of the Lu family. He listened to the report from the elder below.
"The Mo clan is becoming more and more arrogant. They've actually come time and time again to steal the divine crystals of our Lu family. Do they really think that they can look down on us just because they've invited a God?" Lu Tian said coldly as anger surged from him. Not only had the Mo clan stolen the treasures of their Lu family, but they had also stolen the divine crystals they had mined time and time again. This had already angered everyone in the Lu family.
"Ancestor, let's work with the Ando clan," the patriarch requested.
Lu Tian sat on the patriarch's seat emotionlessly as cold killing intent revolved around him. He said coldly, "The powerful clans have gradually shifted their attention to our region with the appearance of the high grade divine crystals. We can't delay the operation against the Mo clan any longer. I'm worried that the news of the Divine King Duanmu's jade will be leaked. After all, our three clans are no longer united. While the powerful clans are still fighting over the distribution of the high grade divine crystal mine in the Dong 'an province, it's the perfect time for us to deal with the Mo clan."
