Chapter 1523 More and More
But his cultivation didn't seem to make much progress. I wonder if it was because he was worried about the situation on Yang Yunshan's side. There was no unexpected news from the other side, but Old Man Hu was really full of energy in half a month, which made Chen Xuan feel a little relieved.
But there was no trace of the knife-wielding man. This made Chen Xuan very annoyed. He didn't know whether the man was lurking or had returned to Iron Lion City.
Chen Xuan came to the task office to see if he could get an easier task, but he accidentally found a task to find mercy. It turned out that a disciple of the fifth level wanted to find his brother who had been separated for many years. He offered a high price of 50,000 spirit crystals.
When Chen Xuan saw this task, he laughed. One laugh was that he was confused, and the other laugh was that he could finally get rid of his troubles. This disciple of the fifth level can pay to find his brother, so can't he pay to find the big man?
The big man disappeared in the west of the city. There are only two options, either he is still hiding somewhere, or he returned to Iron Lion City, which is much simpler than the task of finding his brother. In these twenty years, Chen Xuan made three thousand top-grade wood spirit crystals, while the account of one hundred thousand spirit crystals only required more than two thousand. In addition, there were still six months until the end of January, and Chen Xuan could make nine hundred more. After paying off the debt, there was a total surplus of more than one thousand six hundred top-grade wood spirit crystals, worth more than seventy thousand spirit crystals. I believe that this money should be enough to find someone.
Half an hour later, a task of finding mercy came out.
"Looking for a strong man with a knife, more than forty years old, with the eighth level of mortal realm cultivation, who just came to this city twenty years ago. Now he may be hiding somewhere in the west of the city, or he may have returned to the Zhao family in the western suburbs of Iron Lion City. If he is in this city, the first person to find him can get 10,000 spirit crystals, and the person who provides the most detailed information about this person will get one thousand spirit crystals; if he returns to Iron Lion City, the first person to find him can get 50,000 spirit crystals."
Everyone was surrounded by this strange task. If the big man was still in this city, it would be like giving money to the finder. After all, this task only lacked the ability to point out where the big man was hiding. Of course, if the big man had already returned to Iron Lion City, it would be a little more difficult, but it would only increase the round-trip time.
When issuing the task, Chen Xuan of course took out the top-grade wood spirit crystal, which surprised the disciples of the task office and even called the on-duty Zhang Sect Master.
When Zhang Sect Master saw the more than a thousand emerald green spirit crystals, he stared at Chen Xuan with strange eyes, "You are such a prodigal son, don't you know how to cherish the top-grade wood spirit crystals your father gave you?"
"I can't help it! Who told this big man to provoke my best friend? The key is that he is hiding in the dark, which is too dangerous for my friend."
"Do you need me to get rid of him for you?" Zhang Sect Master smiled.
"This..." Chen Xuan was a little speechless. Among the five deputy sect masters, Chen Xuan was originally most afraid of Zhang Sect Master, but since the Du Zisong incident, Zhang Sect Master has been particularly concerned about Chen Xuan, and now he is rushing to get rid of the powerful enemy for him, which can't help but make Chen Xuan a little moved.
"A man who is only at the eighth level of the mortal realm should be easily wiped out." Sect Master Zhang said lightly.
"Thank you! After finding the clues of that guy, if my friend has no way to get rid of him, I will come to you."
"Well, that's good." Sect Master Zhang said nothing more.
After leaving the mission office, Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction, "This time, the big problem can be solved. Seeing you hiding, I will find you even if I dig three feet into the ground."
Two days later, Chen Xuan got the news that the strong man was hiding in the room opposite the pharmacy.
Pharmacy, it turned out that this man was thinking about this. He thought that the injury of old man Hu must be treated, and there must be Ran who came to the pharmacy to buy medicine. In addition, the pharmacy is in the most densely populated area, and Yang Yunshan and others will most likely pass by here when they come out.
Fortunately, Yang Yunshan is a doctor, and he usually stores a lot of medicinal materials in his medicine box, otherwise it would be really dangerous this time.
Chen Xuan informed Yang Yunshan and old man Hu about the situation of the big man in a letter, and claimed that he could find someone to kill him.
Old man Hu replied that he had tested the light splitting killing array and was very satisfied with it. He wanted to use it to lure and kill the knife-wielding man. Now that he knew his specific hiding place, it should be very easy to do it.
Chen Xuan knew that the old man wanted to take revenge himself.
Old man Hu was not inferior to the man in a single fight. If he hadn't known that old man Hu was injured, the man would have fled far away. Now he felt more and more that there was no hope for this operation. He wanted to hold on until the end of a month, and return to Iron Lion City if he couldn't find the four people.
Three days later, good news came that the knife-wielding man was finally killed. Old man Hu pretended to be sick and went to the pharmacy to buy medicine. Finally, he led the man to a deserted courtyard and killed him with the light splitting killing array that had been set up in advance.
Before the news from old man Hu came, the news from the mission office reached Chen Xuan's hands, which really made him feel a lot of emotion. At the same time, the mission was also announced to be over, and Chen Xuan only paid a mere 14,000 spirit crystals.
In this way, this matter finally had a perfect ending. All dangers have been eliminated. The Zhao family in Iron Lion City is so far away that they should not be able to find this place again for a while.
As he felt much more relaxed, Chen Xuan's cultivation in the past two days has also made great progress. He found that as long as he worked hard, he could control fifteen spiritual energies at the same time, but he still felt unfamiliar and needed some time to consolidate. The number of spiritual energies that could enter the body at the same time also increased by one, reaching eleven. The awkwardness of entering the Qi Gathering Realm has been greatly improved.
At the same time, the debt to the sect was due, and Chen Xuan repeated the same trick and took back an exquisite wooden box from the guard. Of course, there would be no extra things in it, just two letters and some gravel. One of the two letters was written by Yang Yunshan, and the other was naturally written by Old Man Hu.
Back in the dormitory, Chen Xuan packed more than 1,400 top-grade wood spirit crystals, which was considered to have made up for the debt that should be repaid. There were about 800 spirit crystals left that were not used up in the last mission, and Chen Xuan did not take them out.
When he arrived at the mission, the receiving disciple saw Chen Xuan coming and simply went to invite the on-duty Tu Sect Master. Because last time Chen Xuan took out more than a thousand top-grade wood spirit crystals at once, it was too shocking. You must know that under the situation of the destruction of the Chen clan, top-grade wood spirit crystals have become a rare resource that is difficult to obtain. Even the entire Shenxin Sect has less than 10,000 top-grade wood spirit crystals stored, which is the accumulation of the sect for nearly a thousand years. Chen Xuan took out more than a thousand at once, which naturally attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the sect. Of course, if Master Huang had not swapped more than two thousand top-grade wood spirit crystals last time, it would have been known to everyone in the sect.
Although Master Tu knew that Chen Xuan was a rich man, when he opened the box, he still showed an expression of disbelief on his face, "It's still top-grade wood spirit crystals. How many top-grade wood spirit crystals do you have at home?"
"Not much anymore, probably just enough for me!" Chen Xuan answered vaguely.
"Is your father the patriarch of the Chen clan?"
"No!"
Master Tu obviously didn't believe it, but didn't ask any more questions. He counted the number, settled the bill for Chen Xuan, and sent Chen Xuan back.
Second, the dormitory outside Chen Xuan became very lively. One by one, the elders and disciples of the Wood Department came to visit him, hoping to exchange for top-grade wood spirit crystals from Chen Xuan.
For the first few who came, Chen Xuan did not hesitate and easily nodded to exchange. But as soon as the news spread, more people came, and the number of people asking for exchange was getting bigger and bigger.
The whole sect, especially the wood cultivators, were boiling.
But after paying the sect's debt, Chen Xuan had less than two thousand of the top-grade wood spirit crystals left. Seeing that the situation was not right, Chen Xuan had to come up with the strategy of "elders are limited to 100, ordinary disciples are limited to 50, and the exchange will end when they are all gone."
In this way, those who got the exchange were naturally excited, while more people could only hang their heads, especially those elders who were self-righteous and hesitant in their hearts, who were even more depressed.
But the number of two thousand was gone, and even if you forced Chen Xuan to take out more top-grade wood spirit crystals, Chen Xuan was powerless, and everyone had to leave with a sigh. There were also disciples who did not give up and secretly talked to Chen Xuan. Under coercion, Chen Xuan could only open all the boxes and porcelain bottles in the dormitory and let those people check to see if there were any top-grade wood spirit crystals.
Afterwards, Chen Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead. This was too crazy. It seems that such things can't be done anymore. All the top-grade wood spirit crystals made in the future must be converted into ordinary spirit crystals through secret channels before they can be used.
Now all the spirit crystals in Chen Xuan's hands are ordinary spirit crystals, and the number is more than 70,000. Originally, all the spirit crystals exchanged for gold, earth, and fire should be as many as 90,000, but the exchangers also have water spirit crystals and wood spirit crystals. The value of these spirit crystals is certainly greater than the value of the three spirit crystals. In the end, the mess of spirit crystals added up to more than 70,000. As for how much more than 70,000, does Chen Xuan know how to count?
Although the value of these spirit crystals is not as great as the top-grade wood spirit crystals made by Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan still put more than 10,000 spirit crystals into the ring space.
Because he deeply felt the madness brought by the top-grade wood spirit crystals, he secretly made up his mind that he would never show these top-grade wood spirit crystals to others easily unless it was absolutely necessary.
Chen Xuan also had some plans on how to transform the top-grade wood spirit crystal into ordinary spirit crystal. Old man Hu is now on the run and has no one to rely on. If he helps him open a store in Shiweiba City, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?
Chen Xuan's capital is endless. He provides funds to old man Hu. Old man Hu only needs to change the form of the money and keep it for Chen Xuan, while Chen Xuan can take no money from the store's profits. This is a perfect match!
And Yang Yunshan can also join the store.
