"How about this, I will take you to my treasure vault. There are all sorts of stones there." The skinny elder chuckled.
"How many can I choose?" Ling Xian asked.
"One." The elder chuckled, "No matter which one you choose, I will give it to you."
"Thank you very much."
Ling Xian softly grinned and shifted his gaze to the four stones, "Before long, the Four Masters of Qin, Qi, Shu, and Hua will have their own spirits. I suggest you leave them be. They can leave if they want to, and they can stay if they want to."
"I understand. Even before they become spirits, they are already stronger than me. Once they become spirits, I will no longer be their opponent and I won't be able to keep them."
The skinny elder sighed, "For these four stones, I have offended the Ming Clan. What a loss."
"So these four stones came from the Ming Clan's stone mine." Ling Xian frowned. He and the elder were going to find the treasures left behind by the Masters of Qin, Qi, Shu, and Hua. In other words, they will offend the Ming Clan.
"Scared?" The skinny elder looked at Ling Xian with a smile.
"You think I will be scared?" Ling Xian smiled.
"You won't be scared. After offending the third daughter of the Ming Clan, you naturally won't be scared of offending the Ming Clan." The skinny elder looked at Ling Xian, "Am I right?"
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled but didn't say anything.
The elder was right and wrong. He truly wasn't scared of the Ming Clan. But it wasn't because he offended the third daughter, it was because he offended the pro-war faction.
He had already offended the pro-war faction. Even if he offended the Ming Clan, he wouldn't be scared!
"Let's go to your treasure vault. Then, we will head to Qing Shan," Ling Xian said softly.
"Follow me." The elder marched forward in giant steps and headed east.
Ling Xian followed closely behind.
After some time, a stone house appeared before him. It was made from precious heavenly stones and was covered in arrays. It was indestructible.
"Whether or not you can choose the best will depend on your abilities." The elder grinned.
"Don't you know how capable I am?" Ling Xian's gaze was dark as he marched into the stone house.
There were thousands of stones here. Without exception, they were all high quality treasures.
From this, it could be seen that not only was the skinny old man powerful, but his attainments in strange stones were also quite extraordinary.
"To be honest, I didn't expect you to be able to see what those four wondrous stones contained." The old man sighed. Anyone could hear the shock in his voice.
"You know that I can see inside the strange stone, and you still dare to bring me to your treasure vault? Aren't you afraid that I'll spin that Stone King away? " Ling Xian faintly grinned. He had already used his Inner Eyes to look around. There was a King of Stone here and the treasures inside were shocking.
"So you saw through it …" The elder looked at Ling Xian with a complex expression. "You have to be impressed. Even Elder Lin can't compare to you."
"We are getting sidetracked." Ling Xian's expression was calm, "I want that King of Stone. Are you willing to part with it?"
"Since I've brought you here, there's nothing to be reluctant about." The old man smiled.
"I'm just kidding. Even though the King of the Stone Nation has many treasures inside, I have no use for them. I want that one." Ling Xian shifted his gaze to the corner.
There was only a strange stone the size of a palm. It was surrounded by black energy and released a vicious might.
The elder was a little startled, "Are you sure you don't want the King of the Stone Nation? You want this one?"
"I am sure." Ling Xian's eyes flashed with anticipation.
"What is inside this strange stone? I only know that it hides treasures, but I don't know what they are. "
The elder's expression was serious, "I originally wanted to cut it open, but the power it exuded made me shudder."
"There is a drop of blood inside. The blood of the Undead Cat." Ling Xian grinned. He had an Undead Cat. After being bathed in the river of demons, it had the potential to transform into a Sky Beast.
However, it was still a distance away from that transformation. If it could absorb the blood of the Undead Cat, it could transform into a Sky Beast!
Therefore, Ling Xian wanted this strange stone. To him, the treasure inside the King of the Stone Nation was useless.
"I heard that the Undead Cat is a mutant from the universe. It does not pale next to dragons and phoenixes." The elder was shocked. He didn't think the Holy Realm would contain the blood of the Undead Cat.
Ling Xian didn't expect this either. But it made sense.
If even he could, then the Undead Cat's ancestor was an omnipotent being. It was normal for him to have been to the foreign land.
"I will take this stone. You won't miss it, will you?" Ling Xian smiled.
"Haha, the blood of the Undead Cat is useless to me. Even if I did, I would give it to you." The elder flapped around his sleeve and the strange stone flew across the sky towards Ling Xian.
"Thank you." Ling Xian put the stone into his storage pouch. He was very happy.
With this, the Undead Cat could transform into a Sky Beast and could even form the Immortal Seal. Why wouldn't he be happy?
"You are welcome." The elder looked down with a smile, "Next, it is time for us to go to the green mountain. I hope you and I can work together."
"Of course. As long as you don't stab me in the back, I will do my best."
Ling Xian softly chuckled. This trip was dangerous. After all, it was the Ming Clan's stone mine. There must be powerhouses guarding it.
Therefore, he hoped the elder would do his best.
"Haha, let's go. I hope we can find the treasures left behind by that powerhouse." The elder's gaze was heated.
To be able to turn a mortal object into a spiritual being, that person must be someone extraordinary. If there are treasures left behind, they must be extraordinary as well.
Ling Xian wasn't looking forward to the treasures. He just wanted to see the green mountain with the most stones in the entire Sen Luo Continent.
Therefore, he marched forward in giant steps and followed behind the elder.
…..
The green mountain was located to the east of the City of Strange Stones. It was undulating and took up a lot of space.
This place was tightly guarded by the major forces of the Sen Luo Continent. Normal people cannot even get close. However, to powerhouses, entering and exiting the mountain was not difficult.
Ling Xian and the elder were, without a doubt, powerhouses.
The two of them easily entered the deep end of the mountain without alerting any of the guards.
"That is the Ming Clan's stone mine." The elder pointed forward.
Ling Xian followed the direction of the elder's finger and saw that the front was heavily guarded. There were also slaves collecting stones.
"Those guards are nothing. However, there are two cultivators of the advanced stage of the saint realm guarding this place." Ling Xian's expression was serious.
"What a sharp spiritual sense. Even I am not as good as you." The elder stared at Ling Xian.
"You are flattering me." Ling Xian squinted his eyes, "What are you planning to do?"
"Very simple. You will be responsible for finding the stones with treasures and I will be responsible for stealing them." The elder chuckled.
"If I make a move, I will alert the two cultivators of the advanced stage. Can you do it?" Ling Xian frowned.
"Don't worry. I have fought against them more than 10 times. They cannot do anything to me." The elder's smile did not diminish. It was obvious that he was very confident.
"Since they cannot do anything to you, then I don't have to worry." Ling Xian grinned and used his Inner Gaze to inspect every single stone they found.
Time passed bit by bit. After a while, a fiery red stone came into his sight.
This stone contained a Fire Taming Pearl. Though it was incomplete, it was still valuable.
He shifted his gaze towards the elder, "The Fire Taming Pearl. Are you going to steal it?"
"Of course I am. This is a rare treasure." The elder was excited. He raised his palm and headed straight for the red stone.
