Hearing Fang Chen's words, the Managing Elder finally woke up from his shock, and his face was full of smiles.
If this deal was successful, he would be able to earn a lot.
Moreover, in a small place like Clear Breeze City, the corpses of Qi Transformation Realm monsters were rarely seen. He did not expect to be able to obtain one today.
"One hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones."
The Managing Elder cautiously quoted the price, afraid that Fang Chen would leave if he was unhappy.
Hearing this, Fang Chen nodded his head. The price that the Deacon Elder gave him could be considered fair. Soon after, he said, "Deal."
The Managing Elder was overjoyed and prepared to give Fang Chen the spirit stones, but he was stopped by Fang Chen.
"Do you have a space ring that can store a puppet?" Fang Chen asked.
"A space ring that can store a puppet?" The Managing Elder asked.
"Yes, I need one." Fang Chen said.
The Managing Elder thought for a moment and said, "A space ring that can store a puppet is a very special space ring, and the price is very high."
"How much?"
Fang Chen asked.
"Three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, which is thirty thousand mid-grade spirit stones." The Managing Elder said.
The exchange rate between low-grade spirit stones and mid-grade spirit stones was one to one hundred. Three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones was definitely a huge sum.
Fang Chen frowned slightly. He did not have that many spirit stones at the moment.
"I don't have that many spirit stones at the moment. I'll come back when I earn enough spirit stones."
After Fang Chen finished speaking, he finished the deal with the Managing Elder and left Clear Breeze City.
Of course, after leaving Clear Breeze City, Fang Chen was not in a hurry to return to the Azure Edge Sword Sect. His target was the Clear Breeze Mountain Range, which was not far from Clear Breeze City.
Unlike the Black Wind Mountain Range, the monsters in the Clear Breeze Mountain Range were generally stronger. In the core area, there were even some powerful Qi Transformation Realm monsters.
And Fang Chen's target this time was those Qi Transformation Realm monsters.
When leaving Clear Breeze City, Fang Chen used the Mind Control Technique to contact the Bloody Skeleton and asked it to go to the Clear Breeze Mountain Range.
When Fang Chen arrived at the entrance of the Breezy Mountains, he bumped into five adventurers.
"Boss, there's a young warrior over there." Among the five adventurers, a woman saw Fang Chen and whispered.
"Since he dares to come to the Breezy Mountain Range alone, he might be a fat sheep," the boss said sinisterly.
After that, the boss quickly walked in front of Fang Chen and said with a smile, "Little friend, are you preparing to enter the Breeze Mountain Range?"
"Okay," Fang Chen said.
"The Cool Breeze Mountain Range is extremely dangerous. If you're alone, you might run into danger. Why don't we team up?" Boss asked again.
Fang Chen shook his head. With the bloody skeleton around, he didn't need to team up with anyone.
When he saw Fang Chen shake his head, a trace of displeasure appeared between the boss' brows. Soon after, he no longer said anything and left with a cold snort.
Watching Fang Chen enter the Cool Breeze Mountains, the boss sneered and said, "What a reckless brat. Let's go in and kill him."
After saying that, the five of them quickly entered the Breezy Mountain Range.
After Fang Chen entered the Breezy Mountain Range, he didn't rush forward. Instead, he waited for the bloody skeleton.
Not long after he entered, he heard a rustling sound behind him. Fang Chen turned around and was surprised to see the five people from earlier.
When the five of them saw Fang Chen, they quickly surrounded Fang Chen.
"Brat, hand over your treasures and I'll leave your corpse intact," the boss sinisterly said.
Fang Chen glanced at them. Of the five people, four were at the fifth stage of Qi Refinement while the boss was at the sixth stage of Qi Refinement.
"Idiots," Fang Chen sneered.
"Go, kill him!"
The boss roared and the five of them attacked together.
Rumble rumble rumble
Suddenly, a series of earth-shattering sounds came from the Breezy Mountain Range.
"Quick sword."
Fang Chen didn't want to waste any time. He directly took out the Light Spirit Sword and used his quick sword.
Sou sou
Wherever the sword light passed, miserable cries could be heard.
"How is this possible? This brat is actually so powerful!"
Seeing this, the boss was shocked. However, his attacks became even fiercer.
After Fang Chen killed a cultivator, he actually stopped attacking.
"Kill this brat!" the boss roared angrily.
However, at this moment, the boss and the others were horrified to find that their bodies were uncontrollably trembling.
"How is this possible?"
The boss felt a pressure. He couldn't move his body.
"What's going on?"
The boss still didn't know that danger was approaching. He tried his best to break free from the pressure, but it was to no avail.
Just as the boss roared, a bloody skeleton descended from the sky. Under Fang Chen's control, it continuously reaped the lives of the four people.
Crack!
When the Qi Refinement Realm bloody skeleton attacked, the boss and the others couldn't fight back at all. Even when they died, they didn't know who killed them.
Crash!
In an instant, the cultivators were all dead. The bloody skeleton returned to Fang Chen and said, "Master."
Fang Chen nodded in satisfaction and then led the bloody skeleton into the depths of the Cool Breeze Mountain Range.
Time slowly passed. In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
During these five days, Fang Chen and the bloody skeleton had encountered a Qi Refinement Realm demon beast. However, at the most crucial moment, the demon beast had escaped.
Normally, once a demon beast reached the Qi Refinement Realm, it would more or less gain some intelligence. It would be extremely difficult to kill it unless it was a one-hit kill.
However, Fang Chen wasn't discouraged. He continued to search for Qi Refinement Realm demon beasts.
Of course, what Fang Chen didn't know was that during these five days, the upper echelons of the Flowing Wind Sect and the Qingfeng Sword Sect had engaged in a heaven-shaking battle on a mountain peak outside Flowing Wind City.
No one knew what happened during the battle. However, there was some news that the Qingfeng Sword Sect and the Flowing Wind Sect had reached an agreement. The Qingfeng Sword Sect would take sixty percent of the metal mine, while the Flowing Wind Sect would take forty percent.
Fang Chen didn't know any of this.
On a certain day in the depths of the Flowing Wind Mountain Range, Fang Chen and the bloody skeleton were walking when they suddenly heard a cry.
In the next instant, Fang Chen vigilantly stopped in his tracks. At this moment, a black shadow attacked him from behind.
"Kacha"
The bloody skeleton reacted quickly and blocked the attack.
Fang Chen retreated from the battle. The bloody skeleton and the black shadow clashed.
Upon closer inspection, Fang Chen discovered that the black shadow was actually a Shadowcat.
"It's so small."
Fang Chen was a bit shocked. This Shadow Cat was clearly a Qi Refinement Realm demon beast. How could it be so small?
But no matter what, he had finally encountered a Qi Refinement Realm demon beast.
Bang bang bang!
The Shadow Cat's strength was clearly inferior to the bloody skeleton's. After a series of attacks, the bloody skeleton gradually gained the upper hand.
A moment later, with a loud bang, the blood-red skeleton's hand stabbed into the ShadowCat's neck, killing it instantly.
The bloody skeleton threw the corpse to Fang Chen, who stored it in his spatial ring.
"Continue looking for targets." Fang Chen said.
Fang Chen stayed in the Flowing Wind Mountain Range for a total of twenty days before killing three Qi Refinement Realm demon beasts.
On this day, Fang Chen returned to Flowing Wind City. Fang Chen sold the three Qi Refinement Realm demon beasts and received three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones. Adding the spirit stones he already had, he had more than four hundred and fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones.
After paying the three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, Fang Chen obtained the special spatial ring he wanted and left Flowing Wind City.
On the way back to the Azure Edge Sword Sect, Fang Chen summoned the bloody skeleton and stored it in his spatial ring.
After doing all this, Fang Chen returned to the Azure Edge Sword Sect.
When the Ninth Elders heard the news, he summoned Fang Chen and told him about the metal mine. Then, he told Fang Chen another important piece of news.
"Fang Chen, you must enter the top ten of the inner sect as soon as possible. In a month, the Flowing Wind Secret Realm will open and the top ten inner sect disciples will enter."
"Don't worry, Master. I will definitely do it."
With Fang Chen's current strength, he was almost invincible in the inner sect.
Fang Chen left the Ninth Elders' residence. When he was about to return, he bumped into the second ranked inner sect disciple, White Ape, and the third ranked inner sect disciple, Chong Yu.
"Isn't this Fang Chen?" White Ape looked at Fang Chen mockingly.
"Brother White Ape, I heard that this kid is close to Bing Ling." Chong Yu said coldly.
"Fang Chen, if you still want to stay in the inner sect, you better stay away from Bing Ling." White Ape said coldly.
"Is that a threat?" Fang Chen asked.
Hearing Fang Chen's words, White Ape and Chong Yu laughed. Their faces were full of disdain as they said, "You can take it as a threat. Anyway, stay away from Bing Ling in the future. Otherwise, I won't let you go."
Fang Chen heard this and shook his head. He ignored the two and turned to leave.
However, the next day, a shocking piece of news came from the inner sect. Fang Chen was going to challenge the second ranked inner sect disciple, White Ape, and the third ranked inner sect disciple, Chong Yu, at the same time.
As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar in the inner sect. Countless disciples were shocked.
"Fang Chen is going to challenge White Ape and Chong Yu at the same time. Is this true?"
"How is that possible? Who does Fang Chen think he is? How can he defeat White Ape and Chong Yu at the same time?"
"What a fantasy. White Ape reached the Lv 6 Qi Cultivation Realm three days ago, and Chong Yu reached the peak of the Lv 5 Qi Cultivation Realm. Even Duzhong would be afraid of the two of them together."
"He's a madman."
The news spread like wildfire. When White Ape and Chong Yu heard the news, they were furious.
"Fang Chen is courting death."
"Since he's courting death, then don't blame us for being ruthless."
White Ape and Chong Yu said eerily.
In the inner sect, on a hidden mountain peak, a man in green was sitting cross-legged. At a certain moment, his eyes suddenly opened, and the aura around him was majestic.
There was a strange smile on the green-robed man's face.
