Chapter 102 The Beginning of the Dispute

"During this period, Lao Chen, you can stay in my guest room."

"I will send you the spiritual medicine when I have collected all the spiritual medicines." Sun Ming said.

Cao Rui declined Sun Ming's kindness.

He left the guest room of Danlingbao Pavilion despite Sun Ming's request.

Cao Rui will stay in Qingling Xiuxian Market for a while.

It is not a good idea to stay in someone else's guest room all the time.

Besides, Cao Rui needs to make medicine, which is not convenient in the guest room.

It is the right way to move out of this guest room and find another suitable place to make medicine.

The cultivation cave in Qingling Xiuxian Market is a good place.

Cao Rui found the rental place of the cultivation cave in Qingling Xiuxian Market.

After some inquiries.

He learned the price of the cultivation cave.

The cultivation cave is rented for one year.

The ordinary cultivation cave is one spiritual stone per year.

The medium one is three spiritual stones per year; the highest one is ten spiritual stones per year.

Cao Rui is not short of spirit stones at the moment, so he rented a cultivation cave for ten spirit stones a year.

The cultivation cave is located on a cliff. The higher the location, the higher the level of the cultivation cave.

There is a number written in front of each cave.

"No. 4, this is your cultivation cave number plate." The servant at the rental office handed the number plate to Cao Rui respectfully.

"The number plate is also the key for you to enter the cultivation cave. If you don't have a number plate, or if you break into a cultivation cave that doesn't match the number plate, an alarm mechanism will be triggered, and you will be expelled from the cultivation cave."

Cao Rui nodded slightly.

This Qingling Xiuxian Market is good at doing business.

The simple warning array is not expensive, and with the guard service provided by Xiuxian Market, it can indeed make casual cultivators feel at ease living in the cultivation cave.

Cao Rui summoned the magic sword and flew up.

In the highest row of the cliff here, he found the No. 4 cultivation cave.

Cao Rui hung the number on his body, passed smoothly in front of the realm array, and entered the cultivation cave.

The layout of the cultivation cave here is very simple. It was dug from the cliff and there were only two caves separated.

However, this cultivation cave is connected to a large spirit gathering array, and the richness of spiritual energy is several times that of the outside world.

It is indeed enough for casual cultivators to practice in seclusion for a long time again.

Cao Rui went to Danlingbao Pavilion and informed Sun Ming of the location of the cultivation cave he rented.

Sun Ming said that he would come here to inform Cao Rui as soon as the spiritual medicine was collected, and Cao Rui returned to the cultivation cave and waited in peace.

......

At the same time.

A hundred miles southwest of Qingling Xiuxianfang City.

There was a loud bang.

A touch of materialized spiritual energy rushed into the sky.

Several cultivators wearing the clothes of Yunshui Sect disciples flashed out of the smoke.

"It's connected!"

"There is indeed a spirit stone mine underneath!"

"It's almost the same as predicted, at least a small spirit stone mine, and it's possible that it's a medium-sized spirit stone mine!"

"Quick, you guys, quickly pass the news back to the sect!"

The leader looked excited.

Swish, swish, swish!

At this moment, dozens of black-robed monks with auras of at least the late stage of Qi Refining came out from all around.

"Who are they?" The leader of Yunshui Sect was shocked.

"Mining at your grandfather's house, have you informed your grandfather?"

The leading black-robed monk wore a mask, and he waved his hand gently: "Capture them, seal off the scene, and kill those who resist."

The black-robed monks rushed up like wolves and tigers.

The few people of Yunshui Sect were flexible, and seeing that they were no match for the other side, they raised their hands and surrendered.

After the black-robed monks captured the people of Yunshui Sect.

The division of labor began to act.

Some people began to use communication tools to transmit messages.

Someone summoned the Thousand Feather Cranes and spread out to the distance to be on guard.

The leader of the Yunshui Sect had his magic power sealed and his body bound by magic tools. He came to his senses when he saw the Thousand Feather Cranes, the signature spirit beast of the Spiritual Beast Sect. "Are you from the Spiritual Beast Sect?"

"How did you know there was a mineral vein here?"

No one responded to him. The disciples of the Spiritual Beast Sect began to quickly set up the array plates that had been prepared long ago nearby to welcome the next conflict.

The leader of the Yunshui Sect was shocked.

I didn't expect that the Yunshui Sect had been secretly laying out for so long, but it was still discovered.

The Spiritual Beast Sect, which was thousands of miles away, had already noticed the real situation on the border and kept it secret.

Waiting for the Yunshui Sect to successfully open the entrance to the mineral vein with great effort, they took action, went straight to the key point, and took away all the achievements of the Yunshui Sect.

However, the Yunshui Sect had already established the Qingling Xiuxian Market nearby as a stronghold.

The Spiritual Beast Sect would not succeed so easily.

......

Qingling Xiuxian Market.

In an attic that is not allowed to be approached by casual cultivators.

This attic is the secret base arranged by Yunshui Sect.

It is for the spiritual stone mine that Yunshui Sect quietly made efforts to arrange the Qingling Xiuxian Market, which is an open market for cultivating immortals. In secret, Yunshui Sect’s base was arranged in the market, and a large number of people were arranged here.

"Hmm? There is a distress signal from the mine."

"What happened?"

"Hurry up and let the emergency team go to the mine!" The Yunshui Sect cultivator in charge of vigilance soon discovered the abnormality of the mine.

A large number of cultivators soon emerged from the depths of the attic.

The original purpose of Yunshui Sect arranging these cultivators was to ensure the safety of the spiritual stone mine.

At this time, there was a crisis at the mine, so naturally, all the cultivators were dispatched.

Two foundation-building cultivators and forty Qi-refining cultivators from the Yunshui Sect rushed towards the mine.

A distance of a hundred miles was very quick for cultivators.

In less than half an hour, the Yunshui Sect cultivators came to the mine with all their strength.

The Yunshui Sect cultivators found that a formation had been blocked below the mine.

As soon as the Yunshui Sect cultivators approached, the formation began to brew with a faint spell fluctuation.

The leading foundation-building cultivator quickly gave an order: "Strike the formation here!"

Led by two foundation-building cultivators, a large number of spells and magic tools began to attack the formation.

Rumble.

After a series of roars.

The purple shadow of the formation kept flickering, blocking several waves of attacks from the Yunshui Sect cultivators.

In the formation, Xu Ye, the head of the Law Enforcement Institute, personally presided over the formation, and the other disciples of the Law Enforcement Institute were scattered around the formation to assist Xu Ye in controlling the formation.

Relying on this top-level 2nd-order attack-defense integrated Zixiao Yuanjian formation, Xu Ye and more than 20 disciples of the Law Enforcement Court blocked the attack of the cultivators of the Yunshui Sect who were several times their own.

Because the Spirit Beast Sect was too far away from the mine here, and Yunshui Sect didn't know when it would open the mine, the Spirit Beast Sect couldn't send a large force here.

Therefore, the personnel deployed by the Spirit Beast Sect here have always been small troops to follow and rotate, and the number of personnel is not large.

The second-order formation is the core, used to delay time.

It doesn't require being able to seize the mine, just delay the opportunity.

"The sect master has already started to act."

"We can hold on until the large force arrives."

Xu Ye sent a voice message to the disciples of the Law Enforcement Court around him.

This time, the Spirit Beast Sect and the Yunshui Sect are bound to fight.

War is the premise of peace talks.

Previously, there was the unclear death of the former head of the Alchemy Court in Liang State, which will be the bargaining chip for the two sects to negotiate the interests of this spirit vein.

How long has it been since the spirit stone mine was discovered in the southwest of Yunzhou?

In the past, every time a spiritual stone mine was discovered, there would be a lot of disputes.

This spiritual stone mine has rich reserves, mainly because of its special geographical location, located on the border of Liangyue.

The Yunshui Sect's desire to secretly occupy this mine is indeed a fantasy.
