Chapter 1139: Opening Up New Ideas!
“How is the poison inside you, Long Xi? Can you temporarily keep it suppressed?”
When Purple Elephant Emperor and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor returned, Su Yi inquired with a furrowed brow.
“There won’t be a problem for now, but don’t move the qi recklessly!”
The Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor explained that the Heavenly Poison of the Golden Spider is extremely potent, and it’s only due to his strong cultivation that he can temporarily suppress it with his own strength.
However, at present, he cannot engage in combat with others. Using his energy carelessly would only accelerate the spread of the poison before he discovers a method to detoxify himself.
“You should temporarily suppress it yourself first. I will have my big brother examine it later!”
Su Yi nodded, as long as the Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor is temporarily stable, it’s sufficient.
Big brother Xi Wuqing is an alchemist, so he should possess a way to resolve this issue.
Moreover, among the individuals previously captured from the Sky Spider Sect, there are also dozens, perhaps hundreds, of Heavenly Poisonous Spiders. Potentially, we can derive an antidote from them.
If circumstances prove unfavorable, we can wait until the Fantastic Gate Soul Realm is established and find a method to neutralize the Golden Spider.
Su Yi believed that the Sect Leader of the Sky Spider Sect wouldn’t simply surrender and will inevitably come seeking confrontation.
“Investigate this old fellow thoroughly. I’ll attend to other matters!”
Su Yi bade a brief farewell and departed.
“Boss, leave this task to me!”
Su Xiaoshuai nodded and lifted Elder Mu with a small paw. With a flap of his wings, he swiftly flew away.
Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor and Purple Elephant Emperor continued patrolling the area to prevent any unauthorized entry.
Within half a day, Su Xiaoshuai once again seized Elder Mu and flew away, vacating the premises.
Su Yi and Purple Elephant Emperor observed this occurrence and grew curious about where that individual was headed and what he intended.
Everyone disregarded Su Xiaoshuai, aware that his departure must indicate some scheme.
“Master, a Yuan Stone has been excavated!”
While Su Yi was assisting Xi Wuqing, Nangong Ningyue suddenly arrived with a space bag in her hand and presented it to Su Yi.
“Have they mined Yuan Stone so expeditiously?”
Su Yi was exceedingly pleased and accepted the space bag. He opened it directly and extracted several pieces of Yuan Stone to inspect in his hand.
He felt immense excitement. In mere days, Yuan Stone had already been extracted, which was truly unanticipated for him.
Although the Yuan Stones Nangong Ningyue delivered were merely one-star quality, those were just from the surface layers. Undoubtedly, higher-grade Yuan Stones existed deeper within.
“Excellent! We must accelerate the mining. Gather all Yuan Stones and deliver them to me promptly. Let’s activate this Fantastic Gate Soul Realm first!” Su Yi stated joyfully.
“Yes, Master!” Nangong Ningyue nodded and withdrew.
“Big brother, how much longer will it require to complete the Dark Sun Realm?”
Su Yi returned to Xi Wuqing’s side and released his soul power, agitating the residual soul power in the space to inscribe runes.
While he couldn’t yet arrange the entire Fantastic Gate Soul Realm, he was becoming increasingly adept at this supportive work.
“In three days, it should be nearly finished!”
Xi Wuqing didn’t even raise his head, continuing to engrave intricate patterns with his soul power.
Su Yi acknowledged the response; three days aligned with his expectations. By then, they should have accumulated a substantial quantity of Yuan Stone. He couldn’t predict an abundance, but it should suffice to maintain the Dark Sun Realm’s operation temporarily.
Su Yi ceased conversation and devoted himself to establishing the Dark Sun Realm in this forested region, alongside Xi Wuqing.
At the mine, hundreds of individuals were already engaged, each assigned specific responsibilities.
Nangong Ningyue guided a group in mining Yuan Stone, while Su Chengfu and others who had joined the Overlord Sect served as overseers, primarily supervising the people from the Sky Spider Sect in their extraction efforts.
The perimeter was monitored by the Purple Elephant Emperor, the Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor, and several disciples from the Overlord Sect. Yet this location wasn’t bustling, attracting few visitors.
Nevertheless, something remarkable occurred again that evening.
“What transpires?”
The Purple Elephant Emperor stood elevated in the sky and detected energy fluctuations from afar. As he gazed outward, he suddenly observed a contingent of over a thousand individuals in the distance.
“It’s the Heavenly Poisonous Spider, or affiliates of the Sky Spider Sect!”
The Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor also noticed this scene. Upon seeing several figures mounted on Heavenly Poisonous Spiders ahead, he furrowed his brow.
“Why would the Sky Spider Sect undertake such effort to arrive here? Do they seek destruction?”
The Purple Elephant Emperor couldn’t comprehend it. He was perplexed. Luo Jin and Golden Spider weren’t foolish, so why would they dispatch numerous disciples from the Sky Spider Sect at such a time?
Could they have lost rationality and intend to utilize these disciples to reclaim the mine?
“Wait, Lord Su Xiaoshuai follows behind them!”
Suddenly, the Purple Elephant Emperor’s eyes narrowed. He observed someone navigating through the air behind these people, gradually trailing the thousand-plus disciples of the Sky Spider Sect.
And atop this elderly man’s head stood a proud little bird, with its head held high.
“What is occurring?”
Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor was astonished and couldn’t fathom why Su Xiaoshuai became involved with the Sky Spider Sect members.
“Could it be…?”
Purple Elephant Emperor suddenly swallowed nervously and stared, suggesting, “Is it conceivable that Su Xiaoshuai, the formidable hero, has utterly vanquished the entire Sky Spider Sect?”
Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor was equally shocked and, judging by the commotion ahead, there appeared to be validity to this possibility!
Observing the dispirited Sky Spider Sect members, they resembled a herd of dejected cattle and sheep!
“Nangong Ningyue, I entrust these individuals to your care!”
As they approached the mine, Su Xiaoshuai suddenly retreated and vocalized.
When those thousand-plus individuals were directed into the mine, everyone was astounded, including the hundreds of previously captured Sky Spider Sect disciples – their expressions conveyed myriad emotions.
Did they truly bring such a development? Is the Sky Spider Sect’s existence merely to supply free laborers for the Overlord Sect?
This sudden influx of over a thousand people signified a comprehensive acquisition. The disciples remaining at the Sky Spider Sect had been completely eliminated.
“Splendid!”
Nangong Ningyue was tremendously delighted; with so many additional miners, extraction efficiency would certainly increase.
“Master Xiaoshuai is truly formidable!”
Purple Elephant Emperor and Dragon Rhinoceros Emperor gazed wide-eyed with admiration, greatly respectful.
Perhaps only Su Xiaoshuai could conceive such methodology.
The dozens of new disciples who had recently joined the Overlord Sect were all amazed. They regarded Su Xiaoshuai with profound admiration.
With this approach, they needn’t recruit miners or similar workers; they can simply dispatch powerful experts from the Overlord Sect on expeditions, subsequently acquiring disciples from other sects. The process becomes streamlined.
“Little Shuai, how did you assemble so many individuals?”
When Su Yi learned of this situation, he too was curious.
Ordinarily, the Sky Spider Sect should have received intelligence from Luo Jin and Golden Spider. They certainly wouldn’t have arrived voluntarily, and must have developed caution toward the Overlord Sect.
“What complexity exists in this?”
Su Xiaoshuai shrugged indifferently.
However, upon hearing his explanation, Su Yi finally understood that this individual had effectively persuaded an entire sect to accompany him.
It emerged that before Luo Jin, Golden Spider, and Elder Mu reached the mine, seven to eight hundred people had already assembled, prepared to commence Yuan Stone extraction.
But following their defeat, Luo Jin and associates returned and communicated the situation to Elder Yuan who commanded the team, though many ordinary disciples remained unaware.
Upon learning of the mine’s occupation, Elder Yuan returned with seven to eight hundred disciples, intending to establish defenses against the Overlord Sect.
After Luo Jin and Golden Spider delivered this intelligence, they promptly departed without specifying their destination, mentioning only an important matter requiring attention.
However, before Elder Yuan could escort the disciples back to Sky Spider Sect, Su Xiaoshuai had already arrived there under Elder Mu’s guidance, rapidly subduing all Yuan True Realm and Yuan Void Realm practitioners of Sky Spider Sect!
By the time Elder Yuan hastened back, Su Xiaoshuai had instantly overwhelmed him!
Thus, the entire Sky Spider Sect, comprising over a thousand individuals, was thoroughly conquered.
Su Xiaoshuai herded these people toward the mine like domesticated fowl, traversing less than a hundred miles. The journey wasn’t particularly lengthy.
“So this constitutes the approach!”
Even Su Yi couldn’t help but marvel. He considered himself somewhat merciless, consigning all dispatched Sky Spider Sect disciples to labor as miners.
Yet Su Xiaoshuai demonstrated greater severity, directly visiting their headquarters and forcibly escorting everyone here.
Comparatively, Su Yi perceived his methods as relatively lenient!
Nevertheless, Su Xiaoshuai’s actions introduced a novel concept to Su Yi’s thoughts.
He contemplated that the Overlord Sect could certainly venture forth more extensively, inevitably attracting some confrontation, whereupon they could capture opposing forces’ members and employ them for Yuan Stone extraction.
This strategy surpasses conventional miner recruitment, conserving substantial Yuan Stone. The mere consideration brings satisfaction!
“This methodology is genuinely feasible!”
Su Yi’s eyes brightened, recognizing this approach’s practicality.
Naturally, he wouldn’t instigate conflict without justification, as no necessity exists.
They needn’t personally venture out; Luo Jin and Golden Spider will inevitably attract additional individuals.
They will rendezvous with Sky Spider Sect disciples before departing. Potentially, they will indeed summon assistance.
Observing the situation, it’s evident the opposition remains unwilling to relinquish this mine.
However, Su Yi disregards these concerns. The Fantastic Gate Soul Realm will be established within days. He eagerly anticipates more arrivals to oversee mining operations!
Everything at the mine progresses with tremendous activity. People are excavating, patrolling, and supervising.
Meanwhile, certain information began circulating externally.
On one side, news regarding the Alliance Conference remains prominent, with discussions also addressing the Overlord Sect’s recent impressive performance.
Conversely, some neighboring factions have detected peculiarities.
“Have you heard? The Sky Spider Sect, comprising one or two thousand members, appears to have vanished inexplicably. Suddenly, their sect stands vacant!”
Such rumors quickly proliferated throughout the vicinity.
