On the fifth floor of the Ming Clan's Strange Stones Workshop, Ling Xian ignored the lady in red's killer's intent and took all the stones from the fifth floor.
This made the grey haired elder's heart ache and he was also a little nervous.
Even though the lady in red said she would take full responsibility, as the manager, he couldn't avoid being scolded. Naturally, he was unsettled.
"Thank you for your gift. Next time you give me trouble, remember to prepare your wager." Ling Xian grinned and marched on in giant steps out of the Ming Clan's Strange Stones Workshop.
"Dammit!"
The lady in red's expression was dark as she shifted her gaze towards the man in green. She cursed, "You lost last and you lost first. What a piece of trash!"
Hearing this, the man in green smiled bitterly. He had nothing to say and he didn't dare to.
He paid his respect to the lady in red and left the Ming Clan's Strange Stones Workshop.
"Third Miss, this person is merely a fifth leveled cultivator. How about I kill him and take back the stones?" The grey haired elder's eyes were cold and full of killer's intent.
"You don't need to do anything."
The lady in red's expression was cold, "This person has many mysterious techniques. Master Lin will probably be tempted."
"Third Miss, you want to kill someone with a borrowed knife?" The grey haired elder was a little startled.
"That's right. The stones of the Ming Clan are not easy to take."
The lady in red snickered, "Go tell Master Lin about this. Tell him he has a technique that can see through the stones. I believe Master Lin will find him."
"I will go right now." The grey haired elder smiled and left.
...
In the guest room, Ling Xian formed an array and surrounded the entire place.
Then, he took out hundreds of stones and cut them open one by one.
After some time, Ling Xian had cut open more than 100 stones and revealed a happy smile.
This was all because he had acquired more than 100 treasures. Though most of them didn't interest him, two of them were rare treasures.
One was the bone of a pure-blooded dragon. The other was the seed of a spiritual medicine.
The former was not only pure-blooded, but it was also a real dragon of the sage realm. It was a great material for crafting weapons.
The latter was even more extraordinary. There were 70 of them. Without exception, they were all seeds of spiritual medicine. This meant he had acquired 70 spiritual medicines.
Therefore, why wouldn't Ling Xian be happy?
"This trip was worth it." Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. Especially when he thought about how he got all these treasures for free, he was ecstatic.
Although he had offended the third daughter of the leader of the Ming family, he did not care at all. The entire pro-war faction would not rest until he was dead. Why would he care about one more enemy?
"I hope she is smart enough to not provoke me. Or else, don't blame me for being ruthless." Ling Xian wiped off his smile and took all the treasures into his pouch. He began to cultivate his next life.
Unfortunately, it was ten times more difficult to create the body of the next life than the body of the previous life. He failed no less than two hundred times, and there was no sign of success.
"It seems that with my current cultivation, it will be very difficult for me to form a reincarnation body."
"Fine, let nature take its course."
Ling Xian mumbled to himself and thought of the Elder of the Pavilion of Three Lives.
The reason why the Great Elder had humbled himself and begged him to be the master of the Hidden Pavilion was because he believed that he could awaken the Burial of Three Lives and obtain the legacy of Hermit Three Lives.
Now, he had truly awakened the Eye of Three Lives. If the First Elder knew about this, he would be ecstatic.
"I have accomplished the Great Elder's wish. When I return, I will acquire the legacy of Hermit Three Lives and hand it over to the Pavilion of Three Lives." Ling Xian mumbled to himself. He missed his old friends.
He had left the Planet of Eternal Immortal for many years. Naturally, he missed his hometown and his old friends.
Sadly, he could not return.
The Planet of Eternal Immortal was special and not easily accessible. Even though he was now a saint, he could not enter and exit as he pleased.
"It's been so many years. I wonder how my old friends are doing." Ling Xian softly sighed. He thought of Yu Xun Zhen, Gong Suo Xin, and Lin Qing Yi.
That green robe and that faint smile were deeply imprinted in his heart. He would never be able to forget them for the rest of his life.
"Wait for me. One day, I will find a way to revive you." Ling Xian mumbled to himself. It wasn't hard to tell how determined he was.
Then, he calmed himself down and began to train.
Right at this moment, the door suddenly opened, and a black-clothed old man slowly walked in, as silent as a ghost.
However, he could not hide from Ling Xian's senses.
Before the door opened, he had already felt the elder's Qi but didn't think much of it. Now that this person pushed the door open, it was obvious that he was here for him.
Ling Xian opened his eyes and faintly smiled, "I wonder why you are here in the middle of the night?"
"To acquire a secret technique."
The elder in black smiled. As the door closed, an array board appeared and enveloped the entire room.
"My secret technique cannot be taken by just anyone. At least, you cannot." Ling Xian's smile did not diminish. Though the elder in black was a saint, he was merely in the beginning stage. His foundation was far weaker than Ling Xian's.
Without exaggerating, Ling Xian could defeat this person with one move.
"You are merely a fifth level cultivator."
The elder in black shook his head and chuckled, "My apprentice lost to you and has lost his soul. As his Master, I have to help him."
"So you are Master Lin. I thought you were from the Ming Clan." Ling Xian's gaze was deep. He had predicted that the lady in red would not let this go. He just didn't think it would be the Master of the man in green.
"Calling me from the Ming Clan is not wrong. I have three reasons for coming here."
"One is to avenge my apprentice. Two is to take back the mysterious stone that the Third Lady lost to you. Three is to take your secret technique."
Master Lin glared at Ling Xian, "If you know what's good for you, then give me the mysterious stone and the secret technique."
"What if I don't know what's good for me?" Ling Xian smiled. Master Lin was merely at the beginning stage of the saint realm. Even if he was a Zun Stage cultivator, Ling Xian wouldn't give in.
"Then you will have to suffer."
"Though I don't know what your secret technique is, to be able to see through the mysterious stone on the sixth floor of the Ming Clan's Mysterious Stone Store, it is not hard to imagine how mysterious it is."
Master Lin's eyes were heated, "If I can acquire it, then the title of the Number One Mysterious Stone in the Sen Luo Continent will belong to me."
"That is true. Sadly, you cannot acquire it."
Ling Xian glared at Master Lin, "Don't blame me for not warning you. Don't make a move. Or else you will regret it."
"I really don't know where your confidence comes from."
"I have checked you three times with my secret technique. I am certain that you are only of the fifth level."
Master Lin shook his head, "A fifth level cultivator is threatening a ninth level cultivator. How laughable."
"You believe in your secret technique that much?" Ling Xian asked softly. The Art of Changing Heaven and Earth was a technique created by the Immortal Thief. Even real immortals were tempted by it.
Even if he was still of the eighth level, Master Lin would have a hard time seeing through it. "Stop pretending.
"Pretentious. I want to see how long you can stay calm." Master Lin's smile disappeared and his expression turned cold.
In the next second, he made his move. His spiritual energy was like a tidal wave that rolled up into the sky.
"Idiot." Ling Xian's expression was calm and unfazed.
He merely flapped around his sleeve and dissipated his spiritual energy. At the same time, he forced Master Lin back seven steps.
"How is this possible?!"
Master Lin was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe that he was forced back by Ling Xian.
