Feng Jun’s inspiration ultimately ca from an iceberg, not the kind that describes won as cold, but an "iceberg tip" iceberg.
In other words, he can construct the Earth Vein underground, eventually revealing a tip, but it would erge at Luohua Manor.
The part that erges is, of course, a top-tier Earth Vein, as the Earth Spirit has said, able to facilitate Golden Core cultivation.
As for the external impacts of the top-tier Earth Vein, there are more mature solutions, and grading locks suffice.
If a top-tier Earth Vein truly forms, the spiritual energy throughout Luohua Manor could rival Kunhao Plane’s — over ti, it might even rival the Cultivation World of Kunhao.
Upon hearing his suggestion, the Earth Spirit was a bit happy; it could cultivate underground as long as it hadn’t reached magma — "Such an Earth Vein can exist, but how large an area do you need?"
"Can you not control a range of ten thousand li?" Feng Jun answered casually, "Let’s start with a range of five thousand li."
Upon hearing this demand, the Earth Spirit felt a bit distressed, barely absorbed so Earth Vein energy, and now had to cough up half of it?
So it started making excuses, "Reconstructing underground Earth Veins is highly difficult and very costly; I think two thousand li round is more suitable, otherwise, a huge amount of Spirit Stones will be needed."
Feng Jun’s face sank, he directly moved the Earth Spirit into the Soul Stone with a re thought, not bothering to form a seal.
There was an internal restriction between them, but generally speaking, using a thought to control another, especially a lower cultivation level controlling a higher one, indicates a basic disregard for etiquette.
"Hey hey," the Earth Spirit couldn’t help but send a thought over, "We can negotiate, what’s this behavior?"
Feng Jun coldly snorted, "If you choose to disrespect , then don’t bla for being rude."
He was fed up, initially wanting to cooperate with the Earth Spirit, as it offered many good suggestions, but it never seriously considered him, always trying to gain advantage and barely valuing his presence.
Does the Earth Spirit have any rits? It does, such as being straightforward, utterly lacking in subtlety.
Nonetheless, Feng Jun considered this rit to be... almost non-existent; it’s just a money-grubber, might as well sell it.
He wasn’t particularly impulsive, the main factor was economic pressure.
He had been uncertain about spending so many Spirit Stones, but now he had a reason, perfect opportunity to let go.
"Hey hey, we can discuss this," The Earth Spirit, although inside the Soul Stone, was still able to communicate due to the restriction, but it was rather strenuous, "Big Boss, if you have grievances, let’s address them."
"Now you recognize as the Big Boss?" Feng Jun coldly smiled, took out his mobile phone.
Earlier, after advancing to the ninth tier of Ergence, he returned to the Earth Realm mainly because he carried the scent of the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit — he needed to diffuse the scent; now, even if not completely dissipated, it was basically no longer a problem.
Regarding whether to bring Feng Jing and the others, he considered it unnecessary for the ti being; it was deep night, disturbing their dreams would be inappropriate, furthermore their advancent made sudden public appearances inappropriate.
This being the case, Feng Jun thought it better to go and kill so ti.
The Earth Spirit seed to transmit so thoughts, but Feng Jun was too lazy to read them, directly bringing it to Kunhao.
After arrival, Feng Jun stayed within the Spirit Gathering Array for a day, then t the Yin Spirit Bigwig — the difference in ti flow was of little concern to him.
Nonetheless, the Bigwig was slightly surprised, "Did you find a Dharma to eliminate the Heavenly Fragrance Fruit’s scent?"
It didn’t concern the ti flow issue, because previously Feng Jun was very mindful, gradually the Bigwig stopped bothering about it.
Feng Jun did not answer its question, instead, directly asking, "Senior, do you have Earth Spirit Pearls?"
Earth Spirit Pearls are indeed Earth System treasures, even the lowest grade is High Ergence— in fact, those are called Sub-Earth Spirit Beads, true Earth Spirit Pearls start at Golden Core rank.
Genuine Golden Core High Stage grade Earth Spirit Pearls have comparable effects to juvenile Earth Spirits, only one is inanimate and the other alive, one is fixed and the other growing, so from a pricing standpoint, it typically exchanges one for three.
The Bigwig chuckled in response, forgetting its own previous question, "Why, having trouble with that Earth Spirit?"
"That fellow is too troubleso," Feng Jun carelessly replied, then explained the situation as much as possible.
"Three million six hundred thousand Spirit... not expensive," The Bigwig wasn’t one to haggle over small sums but understood general pricing, "That reconstructs Earth Veins in a range of millions of li, which cultivators can it accommodate?"
"But it can only house a maximum of one High Ergence Spirit Gathering Array," Feng Jun disagreed with its viewpoint, "Its coverage is a little wide, but the Earth Vein is really weak. Is that really worth over three million?"
Their communication was all in their Divine Sense, and the Earth Spirit locked in the Soul Stone was unaware.
However, the Big Boss didn’t agree with Feng Jun’s statent, "Earth veins are incredibly varied, without any fixed rules; it’s not sothing explained by strength or weakness, as it also has much to do with terrain and might even be related to celestial phenona... Without specific surveying, I can’t support your viewpoint."
"I’m not forcing your support," Feng Jun replied reluctantly, "I just want to say that this thing is too hard to deal with. I don’t want it anymore and wish to exchange it for three Earth Spirit Pearls of Golden Core High Stage quality."
"Three Earth Spirit Pearls aren’t that easy to exchange," Big Boss, familiar with the market, replied. "At least on the Kunhao Plane, Earth Spirit Pearls are extrely valuable; even the Four Great Sects have only a few."
In this plane, the Four Sects and the Wutai’s dojos don’t have Earth Spirits either. These elves truly help gather earth veins effectively, but they are incredibly rare, so everyone uses Earth Spirit Pearls to stabilize the earth veins.
Strictly speaking, the Four Sects and Wutai have had Earth Spirits one after the other, but most of the ti, these spirits only visited to help nurture the earth veins—which require nurturing whether newborn earth veins or old, unusable ones.
So the Four Sects and Wutai only have fleeting days with Earth Spirits. Even if there are exceptions, they don’t last long.
The last sect with an Earth Spirit was Tianxin Platform, but this Earth Spirit stayed at Tianxin Platform for only over three hundred years before it caught Tianxin Platform’s bad habits, thinking it shouldn’t linger in Kunhao, and directly ascended to the Higher Realm.
No one knows what its ultimate fate was, but everyone knew that Tianxin Platform lost its Earth Spirit.
In truth, this Earth Spirit’s behavior revealed another issue—Earth Spirits can hardly stay on the Kunhao Plane for long. This is an elf born as Golden Core and can easily mature into Nascent Soul.
However, the Kunhao Plane cannot accommodate the existence of Nascent Souls.
So, which Earth Spirit, if bloated, would choose to permanently reside on the Kunhao Plane?
Thus, it’s not that Kunhao lacks Earth Spirits, but that they simply don’t wish to stay here and will leave soon even if they pass by.
The Four Sects and Wutai use Earth Spirit Pearls to maintain earth veins, but even Earth Spirit Pearls are not easily obtained, mostly coming from other planes, each house’s stock is very limited, practically impossible to trade. It’s not just a matter of value exceeding market demand, but rather being value with no market.
Of course, if you possess an Earth Spirit, exchanging for so Earth Spirit Pearls is no problem.
Feng Jun believes there must be many treasures in the Big Boss’s secret vault in the Endless Sea, Earth Spirit Pearls count as hard currency in plane transactions, so there should be so.
Upon hearing the Big Boss suggest he seek the Four Great Sects, Feng Jun found it hard to accept, "Then forget it, I’ll go find Tiantong Comrcial Alliance."
At this mont, he felt fortunate to have maintained a good relationship with Tiantong. Although in this plane, Tiantong kept a much lower profile compared to the Four Great Sects, when it cos to transactions between planes, the Four Sects and Wutai are just juniors.
At Feng Jun’s current stage of developnt, he should focus more on inter-plane matters; Kunhao is gradually becoming unable to accommodate him.
Yet, the Big Boss said, "Yan Yuxi has been waiting outside for almost a month, go out and see her."
"Yan Yuxi?" Feng Jun furrowed his brows in thought and quickly realized what was happening.
He walked to the front courtyard of the manor, "I finally ended my retreat, this ti I gained a lot, and if I’ve neglected anyone..."
His aura was released, which startled many people even before he finished speaking. Qu Jianlei jumped out, "Mountain Master Feng, you’ve finally co out! Yan Yuxi has been waiting for you for over a month!"
A month? Feng Jun looked at him helplessly, Old Qu, we have a good relationship, but can you not exaggerate so much?
He laughed and spoke, "So, it’s a friend from Pine Cypress Peak; indeed, I’ve been careless. Please, Master Qu, bring her in."
Yan Yuxi was already quite familiar with Master Xiaong, though Qu Jianlei hadn’t seen her, it was because he also couldn’t make decisions for Feng Jun, and dealing with people from Pine Cypress Peak could be troubleso, only occasionally passing ssages on favorable occasions.
Now that he passed the ssage and heard Feng Jun speak, he naturally let her in directly.
Yan Yuxi had been waiting anxiously, and upon entering, without saying much, directly spoke, "The transmission over there is ready, just waiting for you, Mountain Master Feng, the next step is stalled... Oh, Mountain Master Feng, you’ve reached Ninth Level of Dust Removal?"
"Since I’ve been in retreat, how could I step out without hitting Ninth Level of Dust Removal?" Feng Jun casually flaunted, then imdiately frowned, "Oh, I forgot, you’re from Pine Cypress Peak."
"What did you think?" Yan Yuxi’s temperant isn’t bad, but after waiting many days, she truly felt a bit angry, "Could I be from Sword Forging Peak? Are there any Yan’s in Sword Forging Peak?"
"Don’t worry, let think," Feng Jun lit a cigarette, pondered, and spoke, "I have a feeling there’s sothing... Oh yes, co over here!"
Seeing him beckon, Yan Yuxi imdiately followed him, although their acquaintance was short, they had collaborated to kill a True Immortal, forming a foundation of mutual trust.
Feng Jun looked around and spoke in a low voice, "Do you want an Earth Spirit? Infant form."
