Fantasy: I Receive Critical Chance For Compensation When I Give Away Fateful Encounters - Chapter 20

Chapter 20 Opportunity Under the Spirit Stone Mine!

Ye Lingyun’s words had been casual, with no intention to probe further. Everyone had their own secrets; she of all people knew that.

“Exalted Disciple, you are like a god among mortals!” Chen Wu walked over with a smile on his face. His eyes were filled with excitement, and his awe of Su’en had only increased. He was elated that the Chen family had won ownership of the spirit stone mine. At the same time, he was even more astounded by Su’en’s strength.

His battle with Elder Lin was nothing like Chen Wu and his family-mere Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators-had ever seen before! If he had been closer to the battlefield, Su’en’s aura may have paralyzed him for the rest of his life.

Chen Ziling and the Chen family members standing behind were also very excited. However, conscious of his image, Chen Wu refrained from cheering loudly.

With such a vast spirit stone mine, the Chen family would no longer need to worry about cultivation resources for the next hundred years. The family might even become stronger!

“Where is the spirit stone mine? Show me,” Su’en suddenly asked.

He wasn’t particularly interested in the spirit stone mine; a survey had revealed that the Qi here was average at best, and the spirit stones the mine produced would be low-grade. The Qi in the Heavenly Domain was far richer. He wouldn’t pay attention to a mine unless it was above medium-level.

But he had activated his Opportunity Guidance function, and it had informed him there was an opportunity here. In fact, he had discovered it upon his arrival. However, he had been forced to participate in the duel with the Nether Saber Sect before checking the opportunity out. Now that the matter of the martial arts contest had been resolved, his next step was to locate the opportunity.

“Exalted Disciple, this way, please!” Chen Wu nodded quickly and led the way. He wasn’t worried that Su’en would take an interest in the mine. It was only a low-grade spirit stone mine, and the spirit stones it produced would be of equivalent quality. Even if there were medium-grade spirit stones, they would amount to no more than a few hundred-a meager amount for a sect in the Heavenly Domain.

The entrance to the spirit stone mine was very close to the venue of their duel, just a stone’s throw away. The path to the mine was a man-made one, dug by whoever had first discovered this place. A deep passage led them downwards. There were many Night Spirit Beads that illuminated the surroundings of the passageway, allowing them to see their surroundings even in the dim light.

“The spirit stone mine is only a few miles deep, but it has many stones. If we mine them all at once, we should be able to obtain millions of them!” Chen Wu explained as he led the way.

Spirit stones were a natural form of Qi-blue, with no fixed shape. They were a common cultivation resource and could not compare to medicinal pills and spiritual herbs. Of course, the spirit stones here were only low-grade ones. If they had been high-grade spirit stones, or spirit crystals, it would be a different story. Especially spirit crystals, which contained Qi equivalent to a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Su’en had been too focused on finding his opportunity to pay attention to Chen Wu. He looked at the direction the white dotted line from the system was pointing to and said, “I’ll just have a look around on my own. You don’t need to follow me.”

It wasn’t that he wanted to conceal the opportunity from them; the place he found said opportunity might be too risky for them. If there was trouble, he would be able to protect himself, but he couldn’t say for certain that he could keep everyone else from harm.

“As you wish.” Although he did not understand why the Exalted Disciple was interested in a low-grade spirit stone mine, Chen Wu did not ask why. Instead, he shut his mouth and left with the others.

After the group had left, Su’en continued down alone. There were many passages here, not just one.

After taking a turn left, then again, Su’en stopped at a very ordinary wall. In his view, the white dotted line passed through the wall. From the looks of it, the opportunity should be hidden behind the wall.

So Su’en placed his palm on the wall and channeled his True Qi.

In an instant, the wall shattered. With a casual wave of his hand, the dust cleared, revealing a cave hidden inside the walls.

And a golden skeleton sitting on the ground inside.

“From the looks of it, he must have been a powerhouse when he was alive!” Su’en eyed the skeleton warily.

The skeleton in front of him exuded a pressure. After being dead for so many years, this person’s bones could still emit pressure. How much strength had he wielded in life?

With that in mind, Su’en stepped inside the cave, body ready and alert. An opportunity was an opportunity. If he encountered danger he couldn’t handle, it would be a huge loss. Especially if the bones in front of him were still emitting pressure. There must have been many cases of renunciation here! Fortunately, Su’en met with no misfortune after walking in. Reaching the skeleton, he saw that there was a box beneath it.

He opened it and saw a cultivation technique and a bottle of pills inside. Beneath the box were several more lines of writing in blood.

My name is Sikong. I’m a Buddhist from the West. I was attacked by a demon and was so badly injured that I met my end here. I don’t want Buddhist martial arts to be lost, so I left this cultivation technique behind. If anyone can find this place, they can cultivate it. I also left a Diamond Pill to assist in the cultivation. I only hope that you will send the technique back to the Buddhist Sect after cultivating it!

After reading the text, Su’en was surprised.

“A Buddhist?”

The world was huge, divided into five regions. Jingzhou, the Eastern Lands, the Northern Plains, the Southern Dynasty, and the Western Heavens. Jingzhou was the largest and the most suitable place for cultivation, followed by the Western Heavens, which were ruled by the Buddhists. Not only were there vast oceans separating the five regions, but there were also mutated beasts in the water to serve as further barriers. So it wasn’t easy to get from one place to another.

“Diamond Mystic Body Technique? Mid-grade Earth-rank?”

Excitement filled Su’en’s eyes as he scanned the contents. This was an extremely rare cultivation technique that could transform one’s physical form-and it was of a mid-grade Earth-rank.

“What a stroke of luck!” Su’en muttered to himself. Although cultivators would enhance their physical fitness when they were in the Foundation Establishment Realm, they still relied on True Qi cultivation.

However, body tempering techniques were different!
