Chapter 244: Found It
Other sects focused on the high-level cultivators of the He Dao Sect, completely overlooking Ji Yang.
After all, Ji Yang was merely a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, far from causing such a significant disturbance.
Yet it was this very misconception that led them to ignore the fundamental reason for this event.
Could it just be a Talent Jealousy? It shouldn’t trigger such power; there must be other secrets involved.
Perhaps the He Dao Sect had already mastered this technique?
Sect training?
Ren Yuning mumbled to herself, connecting the dots in her mind, and suddenly her expression changed as she realized!
Ji Yang had come here to destroy the Heaven Demon Sect!
A conspiracy! This was definitely a plot by the He Dao Sect!
Otherwise, how could a Talent Jealousy willingly surrender?
The He Dao Sect must have learned that the Heaven Demon Sect’s mining sites lacked manpower and used this training as a cover to send Ji Yang here to make him surrender willingly.
The goal was to use the secret methods that the He Dao Sect had mastered to wipe out the Heaven Demon Sect in one go!
Thinking of the explosion at the He Dao Sect on that day, if such a blast occurred close to the Heaven Demon Sect, they would surely suffer enormous losses, potentially losing their position as a top sect!
This thought made Ren Yuning sigh!
As expected of the He Dao Sect, they truly were full of tricks, placing such a grand scheme on the shoulders of an inner disciple, making it hard for them to guard against!
Talent Jealousy was said to not last long.
Sacrificing one, as long as it could strike the strongest opponent—the Heaven Demon Sect—would definitely be worth it!
At that moment, Ren Yuning smiled, sweeping away her previous gloom.
Although she still had some doubts, her guess was surely very close to the truth.
The plan was excellent, but unfortunately, the genius her had figured it out.
Now that there was still no news from the sect, it indicated that the matter was still brewing.
Perhaps the explosion method required time to prepare.
Now she just needed to return and expose Ji Yang’s conspiracy, controlling him, and everything would be peaceful.
As for how to deal with him afterward, that was truly under her control.
What she needed to do now was speed up her return!
"Xiao Yu, make the spiritual boat go faster!"
The maid received the command and added a few spiritual stones to the control hub of the spiritual boat.
These spiritual stones had a pentagonal diamond shape, sparkling with light; the colors inside were pure, and just taking them out released spiritual energy.
These were not ordinary spiritual stones but rare supreme spiritual stones!
However, they were only used for the journey now.
…
A day later.
Inside the Demon Spirit Mine.
"Can you really do this?"
Seeing the turtle shell had already turned black and the Xuanwu had just crawled out of the mine, Ji Yang asked seriously.
For several days, this Xuanwu had still not found any trace of the best Demon Spirit Ore.
Considering that it hadn’t made any contributions but had put in effort, Ji Yang had given it a Yun Ling Dan even without finding anything.
But with no results for so long, Ji Yang couldn’t help but suspect that this turtle was just tricking him for food.
Facing Ji Yang’s doubts, the Xuanwu puffed out its neck and tilted its head!
"Of course I can!"
Seeing Ji Yang still did not believe him, the Xuanwu patted its chest and stomach, earnestly declaring,
"Just give me two more days; I feel like I’m getting close!"
"This time, there are no pills left. I don’t have many of them, and if you can’t find anything again, you’ll be out of luck!"
After saying that, Ji Yang produced a pill from his hand and swallowed it.
This made the Xuanwu involuntarily swallow.
"I’ll go one more time!"
As if made up its mind, the Xuanwu gritted its teeth and popped its head back into the ground.
Without the Xuanwu beside him, Ji Yang slightly furrowed his brows. The reason he urged was that he sensed something vague was about to happen, and the peaceful time for mining might not last long.
But after checking the attribute panel, everything appeared normal.
Unable to find a reason, Ji Yang could only speed up.
Even if he couldn’t mine here for long, he had to gather some resources before leaving!
Today, Ruan Yong’an and He Feng came to talk with Ji Yang again.
From their joyful expressions, it was clear that the previous plan was progressing smoothly.
In a few more days, the restraint shackles in everyone’s hands would be removed, and the many disciples would find ways to leave.
However, even if the restraint shackles were removed, given the cultivation levels of the He Dao Sect disciples who were out for training, it would still be difficult for them to escape from this place.
This was mainly because there were numerous Golden Core stage demonic path cultivators guarding this place, not to mention it was not far from the Heaven Demon Sect. If something unexpected happened, the cultivators from the Heaven Demon Sect would quickly provide support.
And with the other disciples leaving, Ji Yang of course wouldn’t stay here any longer.
Otherwise, he would easily become the target of everyone’s arrows, drawing the focus of the demonic path cultivators.
The key was that he had a secret. Although he had the Breath-Holding Technique and the Heaven’s Secret Pearl for cover, he might not be able to escape the gaze of high-level cultivators, so it was best to leave early.
Although Ji Yang was very satisfied with the mining treatment from the Demon Sect, now being in the righteous path, he still needed to act cautiously to avoid trouble.
After a while, Ji Yang no longer lingered.
"Mine today if there’s ore; worry tomorrow when tomorrow comes!"
Cultivation level +1
Physique +1
Superior flying sword +1
Strength +1
…
Just as Ji Yang was happily mining, a half Xuanwu head appeared again from the front of the mountain.
Different from its previous disappointment, this time the Xuanwu looked exceptionally excited:
“I found it!”
“I see so many Demon Spirit Ores, and there are about ten pieces of the best Demon Spirit Ore!”
Hearing this news, Ji Yang felt a surge of excitement and quickly asked,
“Where?”
“Here! Just follow this mine tunnel and keep digging for about two hundred meters, and you’ll get there.”
Without hesitation, Ji Yang shouldered his iron pick and began to dig down the mine tunnel pointed out by the Xuanwu.
Two hundred meters is nothing difficult.
Although this distance seemed short, the Demon Spirit Ore itself was quite hard.
If it were other cultivators, it might take them a month or half a month to mine this.
But for him, as long as he worked tirelessly, he only needed five days!
Digging forty meters a day, that was Ji Yang’s current speed.
With a goal and a plan in mind, Ji Yang began to dig.
In an instant, the sound of the iron pick striking the ore was unceasing, but these noises were blocked by the barrier Ji Yang had set up using his primordial spirit energy.
The noise was too loud; if it spread, it might attract the attention of the guarding demonic path cultivators.
To further hide his mine, Ji Yang deliberately created a false disguise for the current mine.
This way, when those demonic path cultivators came to collect the ore, they would not be able to find it.
“What about my pills?”
At this moment, the Xuanwu claimed credit with its gaze fixed on Ji Yang.
“I still can’t tell if they’re real or not, but I’ll give you five for now. Once I find it, I’ll pay the rest.”
The Xuanwu paused for a moment; although the term was a bit unfamiliar, it understood Ji Yang’s meaning.
Though the Xuanwu was displeased with Ji Yang’s lack of trust, for the sake of those five pills, it decided to forgive him!
