It must be said that the twenty spirit stones that Fan Jiushe took out were not easy to come by. Although the Fan brothers had saved a lot of silver in Southern City over the years, spirit stones were not something that could be bought with silver.
As a mortal, no matter how rich you were, it was not easy to buy spirit stones from immortal cultivators. Immortal cultivators were extraordinary and had too many opportunities to get silver. They didn't care at all, so why would they use spirit stones to exchange for silver?
Fan Jiushe's dozens of spirit stones came by coincidence. It just so happened that an immortal cultivator family had a prodigal son without spiritual roots. That kid ate, drank, gambled, and even got into debt.
When Fan Jiulong found out, he gave him a lot of money. In return, the prodigal son cheated and stole dozens of spirit stones from his family. Fan Jiushe had kept it for a long time and was reluctant to use it. Today, at the moment of life and death, he took it out.
Spirit stones had many uses. First of all, it was the currency used by immortal cultivators. It was used like mortal silver. Generally speaking, the number of spirit stones that people talked about referred to the low-grade spirit stones in Fan Jiushe's hands. One hundred low-grade spirit stones could be exchanged for one mid-grade spirit stone, and one hundred mid-grade spirit stones were equal to one top-grade spirit stone.
Of course, in theory, top-grade spirit stones were very rare. One hundred mid-grade spirit stones were far from being able to exchange for one top-grade spirit stone. As for top-grade spirit stones, they belonged to the category of divine objects. They were almost extinct in this world, and no top-grade spirit stones had appeared for thousands of years.
The second use of spirit stones was that many arrays needed spirit stones as the core of the array. Simply put, spirit stones were needed to provide energy. With spirit stones, the array could only operate.
The third use of spirit stones was to absorb spiritual energy. The spiritual energy contained in spirit stones was very pure, far better than the spiritual energy in the air. Even if there was a place with abundant spiritual energy, it could not be compared to the spiritual energy provided by spirit stones.
Fan Jiushe took out spirit stones for the third purpose. He was supporting the golden light protection technique, and his own spiritual energy could not support it at all. He had to take out spirit stones to replenish his spiritual energy in order to confront Ye Kong for a long time.
Seeing that Fan Jiushe had no choice but to take out the spirit stones to support himself, Ye Kong chuckled and said, "Brother Fan, there are quite a lot of spirit stones. I want to see how long you can last after sucking all the spirit stones in your hand dry!"
Fan Jiushe ignored him and sat cross-legged in the grass, holding a spirit stone in one hand as if he was sleeping.
Although this Golden Light Body Technique consumed spiritual energy, if one was not attacked, the consumption would be limited.
Naturally, Ye Kong would not let him meditate so easily. He went to find more rocks and smashed them on Fan Jiushe's body. The golden light was smashed until it was distorted, but there was no sign of it breaking.
After smashing for a while, Ye Kong was a little tired. He didn't want to continue wasting his spiritual power on useless things, so he simply moved a large rock and sat across from Fan Jiu She to meditate.
"If you want to drag it out, fine. I have plenty of time. Anyway, the people waiting to die are not my relatives," Ye Kong said.
At this time, the sky had begun to darken. When they looked up, they could no longer see the sun. The last ray of light forcibly illuminated the sky, and the spirit stones in Fan Jiushe's hand were almost used up.
Of course, Ye Kong would not cultivate in front of his enemy. He looked up at the sky and said lightly, "Fan Jiushe, it's getting dark. Why don't we make a deal?"
When Fan Jiushe heard this, he opened his eyes and looked at Ye Kong, only to hear him say, "This matter is purely because you have bad intentions. As long as you disperse your power and hand over the Immortal Cultivation Chant, I, Ye Kong, will protect the lives of you and your family."
When Fan Jiushe heard this, he snorted and laughed, "Immortal Cultivators are most afraid of external relationships. It's good that you kill my family. In the future, I won't have to worry about them. Maybe my cultivation will be faster in the future."
Ye Kong shook his head. "You heartless beast, even if they die, do you think you can escape?"
Fan Jiushe smiled mysteriously. "It's hard to say."
Just as he finished laughing, Ye Kong suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. However, before he could do anything, something strange happened.
Beside the big rock he was sitting cross-legged, four green pillars as thick as a person's legs suddenly extended out of thin air. The pillars were mottled and rough, like a tree that suddenly grew out of nowhere.
When the pillars rose, countless vines crazily extended out from the ground between the pillars. These vines grew extremely crazily, and very soon, they surrounded Ye Kong.
Ye Kong was shocked. He did not know what this was. He raised his hand and took out a dagger from his sleeve, and fiercely slashed at the vines.
Unexpectedly, the vines were extremely sturdy. When the dagger slashed down, it only cut through the vine skin. Moreover, from the vine skin, several vines as thick as a thumb grew out. It could be said that the more he cut, the more vines there were.
"Haha, don't waste your energy!" Fan Jiushe's wild laughter came from outside. "Kid, let me tell you, this is a low-grade, middle-tier spirit herb, Prisoner Cage Grass. Although this thing does not have any killing power, it is excellent at trapping people. Even a Foundation Establishment Immortal would find it difficult to escape!"
"Did you think I was meditating just now to waste time? You're wrong. I have been madly absorbing spiritual energy to nourish the seed of this grass. That's why it suddenly grew! Did you fall for it? Little fox, in the end, you can't beat the old hunter! "
Fan Jiushe, who had been sullen for the entire afternoon, laughed like a madman. Looking at the green square cage in front of him that had grown impenetrably, he circled around it, feeling very gratified.
"Damn it! Fan Jiushe, let me out! " Ye Kong gave up on cutting the vines. He stood in the black room and scolded, "Fan Jiushe, you coward! What's the use of trapping me? Can you kill me? Come on! "
"Haha, of course I can kill you! Even if I can't kill you, I can starve you to death! "
"Then your whole family will die in the end! Come and kill me then! "
"I won't say anymore. If I die, then I die. I will avenge them." Fan Jiushe smiled sinisterly, "This Cage Grass seed was left behind by that dead cultivator. Even when I was being hunted down last time, I couldn't bear to use it. Now that I'm using it on you, how can I not gain some benefits?"
Indeed, this kind of Cage Grass seed had long been extinct. It had been circulating in the storage bag of the ancient cultivator for tens of thousands of years. Fan Jiushe really treated it like a treasure, a life-saving straw. If it wasn't for the fact that he was on the verge of death today, he wouldn't have used it.
Since he had used it, he must absorb Ye Kong's power. As for his parents, wife, and children, he didn't care. Besides, it was most likely too late to rush back now. It was better to absorb Ye Kong's power here and break through to the fourth level of Qi Training.
As for opening this cage, he naturally had a way.
The Cage Grass grew into a square green cage and stopped growing. The dense vines intertwined with each other like four walls, blocking Ye Kong inside. Even the top of his head was blocked by the vines.
"Damn, I didn't expect this fatty to have this kind of vile grass!" Ye Kong punched, slashed, dripped blood, spat … he used all the methods he could think of, but there was no effect.
"If you have the guts, come in and kill me!" Ye Kong scolded.
"Haha, don't think I'm lying to you. I really have a way. When I dig a hole in this vine wall, it will be your death!"
Fan Jiushe smiled proudly. He patted his storage bag, took out the gray little sword instrument, and cut the vines that stretched out.
"Pa", the finger-thick vine snapped, and white juice flowed out of the cut.
"Sure enough, this Cage Grass can only be cut by instruments and spiritual instruments." Fan Jiushe's experiment was successful, and he was overjoyed.
He already had an idea to deal with Ye Kong. Didn't this kid know how to hide? In this small space, how could he hide? Later, he would dig a hole the size of a fist, then throw an ice bomb in, freezing him inside, and then he could capture this kid alive!
Inside, Ye Kong was not idle. He couldn't cut the vines, so he suddenly thought of digging!
But he was disappointed. This Cage Grass was really good at trapping people. The ground was harder than the wall, and the vines were thicker, as hard as iron and stone. When the dagger cut it, sparks flew.
Damn, am I going to wait for death in here?
Listening to the digging sound outside, Ye Kong felt despair again. He shouted, "Fan Jiushe! Don't you want to suck my spiritual energy? If you push me too far, I will commit suicide! Let's see how you suck my spiritual energy! "
"Haha, you won't!" Fan Jiushe laughed loudly, "You are the same as me! You will never give up until the last moment! At the last moment, you will still struggle! This kind of person will never commit suicide! You … are not willing! "
Ye Kong snorted, "Damn, you know me well. It seems that the one who understands you the most is your enemy. This sentence is really true."
The sky was completely dark, and the moon had not yet risen. This was the darkest time of the day. The sky was dark, and the forest was like the shadow of a monster, gloomy and scary.
The cage grass lived up to its name. It was like a cage, and the walls were extraordinarily thick. Fan Jiushe didn't light a fire. He took advantage of the darkness to dig in. Although the small sword dharma artifact could dig through the wall of vines, it wasn't that fast.
However, inch by inch, the thick wall of vines was finally hollowed out. Fan Jiushe slashed again, and the tip of the sword pierced through!
"It's through!" Fan Jiushe was excited, and his fingers were trembling.
He shouted, "Kid, you don't have long to live! I will use your spiritual energy to break through to the fourth level of Qi training! At that time, I will be able to use magic artifacts! Haha, let me tell you, the first person I killed with the instrument was your ghost mother! Then there was the Lu family! "
Seeing that Ye Kong was about to die, at the most critical moment, he suddenly slapped his head, "Stupid, why didn't I think of this?"
