After settling down the Ninth Elder's people, Ye Xiwen began to enter the state of closed-door training.
After entering the mansion, he discovered that the Ninth Elder had a lot of wealth. He actually had tens of thousands of blood stones. Compared to his subordinates, the Ninth Elder was many times richer.
Of course, it was still incomparable to Ye Xiwen's. The Ninth Elder's wealth was not much different from Ye Xiwen's harvest in a few months.
With these 20,000 blood stones as a foundation, Ye Xiwen was much more confident in breaking through to the peak of the Seventh Level of Powang Realm.
As long as he broke through to the peak of the Seventh Level of Powang Realm, he had nothing to worry about.
After entering closed-door training, he directly grabbed the condensed blood qi of a thousand blood stones and swallowed them all on the spot.
"Boom!"
The boundless energy all rushed into his body and started to run around in his body.
In his body, it was constantly bursting!
He operated the Observing Person Scripture and the Art Conversion Technique. These two techniques were constantly operating in his body, like a giant beast, constantly devouring the blood qi and turning it into his life essence.
His body devoured the boundless energy hungrily. His whole body was like a huge blood pool, constantly absorbing the blood essence into it.
Time passed day by day. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed in a hurry.
Two years' time was nothing compared to the long time in the Blood Prison. It was also nothing for the Sky Bearing Fortress.
In the past two years, there were not many changes in the Sky Bearing Fortress. There were also no changes due to the addition of the Ninth Elder.
There were a few blood demon waves, and countless blood demons attacked the defense of the Sky Bearing Fortress. However, they were not able to break through the defense of the Sky Bearing Fortress. A few elders came out of closed-door training and easily dealt with them. They could not really attack the defense of the Sky Bearing Fortress.
Everything was calm as if it had been many years ago. It had always been like this since a long time ago.
At this time, Ye Xiwen came out of closed-door training quietly. If there were people familiar with him, they would be able to see that Ye Xiwen had become more mellow, and his control of his aura was more stable.
He had successfully broken through to the peak of the seventh level of the Powang realm. It was just an advancement within the same realm, and not a new realm. Therefore, there was not much movement, and he did not show off his abilities.
But only he knew that during the past two years, his strength had increased tremendously. There was no fundamental breakthrough, because if he took another step forward, he would already be at the Dao Corroboration level.
No matter what, it was impossible for him to cross over.
Therefore, he did not attempt to cross over casually. What he lacked now was to condense the Saber Dao incarnation. As long as he could condense the Saber Dao incarnation, he would be the first person below Dao Validation.
At that time, what Yao Shengqing, what Jing Tianlei, what Abyssal Demon Lord? They wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow.
Unless they attained the Dao, it was impossible for them to be his match.
However, in order to condense a Saber Dao incarnation, aside from having a certain level of comprehension of the Saber Dao, the most important thing was to have sufficient energy. Be it Divine Source or Blood Stones, they all required a lot.
However, he didn't expect that someone would come knocking on his door as soon as he came out of seclusion.
It was none other than the Second Elder of the Nine Great Elders. He was a short and fat man who always had a smile on his face. He was dressed luxuriously like a businessman.
However, it was precisely because of this that he was in charge of the various economic affairs in the Sky Bearing Castle. He had always been in charge of it very well. In the past two years, Ye Xiwen's share had not been reduced at all.
"What's the matter? Is it rare for you to come?" Ye Xiwen looked at the Second Elder with a smile.
The Second Elder looked at Ye Xiwen with some surprise. He could see that Ye Xiwen's strength had become much stronger in the past two years.
It was indeed quite amazing to be able to make such progress in a mere two years.
After all, at their level, it could be said that every step was extremely difficult. If it was in the outside world, it might take more than a thousand years to take a single step. If it was a race with a short lifespan like the Human Race, it was possible that they would waste their entire lives and turn into dust.
However, even in the Deification Abyss, it was still very amazing to be able to make such great progress in two years.
Especially the Second Elder, he had not made any progress for decades. If he were to go one step further, he would be able to prove his Dao. In comparison, Ye Xiwen had more room for improvement.
He was only at the seventh level of the Powang realm and he was already so amazing. If he continued to practice, it would be even worse. He knew that Ye Xiwen's origin must be quite extraordinary. Otherwise, how could it be possible for a seventh level of the Powang realm to defeat a ninth level of the Powang realm without the strength to fight back?
However, he would not ask in detail. It was just that Ye Xiwen was strong enough!
Thinking of this, he became even more enthusiastic.
"One doesn't come without a reason. Old Jiu, you have been here for two years. During these two years, we did not disturb you when you were in closed-door cultivation. However, you also know that after enjoying the benefits, we naturally have to fulfill our obligations!" The Second Elder looked at Ye Xiwen and said with a smile.
"What kind of tasks are there?" Ye Xiwen asked.
"Old Jiu, you should also know that for the past two years, we have been able to send you about ten thousand bloodstones every year, right?" The Second Elder said.
"Yes!" Ye Xiwen nodded. It was all thanks to the 40,000 Blood Stones that he was able to improve his cultivation base so quickly.
"It is naturally impossible to support so much consumption just by relying on the income of the Sky Bearing Castle!" The Second Elder said. "Our main income is still a low-grade bloodstone mine 100,000 miles away from the Sky Bearing Castle!"
"Bloodstone mine?" Ye Xiwen's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard it.
In the Blood Prison, condensing bloodstones out of thin air was indeed a method, but it was strenuous and unrewarding. The more important thing was to excavate the bloodstone mines buried deep in the Blood Prison. These bloodstone mines were buried deep in the Blood Prison and were also the main source of bloodstones for the major forces.
Otherwise, it would be very difficult to meet the demand under normal circumstances.
"Yes, it is a bloodstone mine. However, the bloodstone mine is 100,000 miles away from here. It is very far, so we need someone to oversee it for a long time. Generally speaking, we also take turns to oversee it in order to prevent the Blood Demons from causing trouble. More importantly, it is to prevent the Flying Cloud Castle from spying on us. The Flying Cloud Castle has been eyeing our bloodstone mine for a long time. This is the foundation of our survival. Once it falls into the hands of the Flying Cloud Castle, the consequences will be unimaginable. Our Sky Bearing Castle will collapse directly without a fight!" The Second Elder said solemnly.
Ye Xiwen also understood that for a force like the Sky Bearing Castle, a bloodstone mine was the foundation of their survival. All of their expenditures depended on this bloodstone mine. As for other sources of income, there was no way to compare with the bloodstone mine.
"Now, it's your turn to take charge. Of course, we won't ask you to take charge for a long time. Two years is enough. Normally, there's a cycle every two years. I've been the one taking charge before. Now, it's your turn!" The Second Elder explained in a friendly manner.
"If that is the case, then I will go!" Ye Xiwen also knew that there was no such good thing as just taking benefits without doing anything.
Two years later, he was about to be released from prison. At that time, he still wanted to rush out and soar to the sky.
Most importantly, he wanted to condense the Blade Dao Incarnation. It was the time when he needed a huge amount of bloodstones. Once he oversaw the bloodstone mine, it would be a good opportunity for him to steal what he was guarding. At that time, he would be able to get as much as he could.
He looked at the Second Elder. Obviously, the Second Elder also understood the rules, but he didn't care, because everyone would have their turn, and everyone would have their turn. Naturally, he didn't have to worry about others taking advantage of him.
Because he was the same.
However, even if they died, they probably would not have guessed how amazing the amount of bloodstones Ye Xiwen could absorb was. Ye Xiwen did not say anything. At this time, the most important thing was to make a fortune in silence.
"Then, I will have to trouble you, my good brother!" The Second Elder smiled and went out. In the past two years, he had also made a lot of money. At this time, it was time to go back and properly digest it.
Ye Xiwen did not stay for long. After giving some instructions, he hurriedly rushed in the direction pointed by the Second Elder.
The distance of 100,000 miles could be said to be long, but it could also be said to be short. With Ye Xiwen's cultivation, it did not take long for him to arrive.
"Who is in front? Stop!"
As soon as he entered, a guard immediately came forward. All of them were experts in the Myth realm. They were all experts of the Sky Bearing Castle under the nine great elders. They were no different from the people in the secular world.
Ye Xiwen directly showed his waist tag. They were immediately dumbfounded. The person in front of them was actually an elder. However, they had not seen him before.
The nine great elders rotated every two years. Therefore, those who had been here for a longer period of time had more or less seen the nine great elders. It was just that they had never heard of such an elder from the human race.
However, the waist tag couldn't be faked. At this time, they thought of another rumor. The original Ninth Elder had been killed, and the person who killed him became the new Ninth Elder. Could it be that the person in front of them was the one in front of them? Thinking of this, they immediately broke out in cold sweat. They had actually stopped the new Elder.
To them, the Nine Great Elders were all figures at the top of the Golden Pagoda. They had never seen anyone who had proven their Dao before. These were the most powerful experts they had ever seen. If they angered them, they might look like myths, but it would only take a few minutes for them to kill them.
They immediately apologized.
Ye Xiwen did not want to waste any more words with them. He directly ordered them to find the supervisor, and then directly entered the bloodstone mine.
