Ling Xiao looked at Xuan Yao's hurried figure and thought to himself, "With a brother like this, there's no need to worry about not succeeding!"
Ever since he and Xuan Yao got to know each other, the two of them were like brothers.
He knew that Xuan Yao knew the secrets of the heavens and could foresee things like a god. He was destined to be extraordinary.
Now that Xuan Yao was willing to help him, it really helped him reduce a lot of unnecessary worries and also helped him share a lot of burden.
If not for Xuan Yao's help, he really wouldn't have been able to succeed so quickly!
Ling Xiao was very grateful to Xuan Yao and decided that he definitely wouldn't mistreat Xuan Yao in the future.
Ling Xiao listened to Xuan Yao's suggestion and ordered people to only excavate the outer section of the crystal mine. All the nearby terrain was not allowed to be touched. He announced that he would establish his sect here.
When Ling Xiao announced that he would disappear, many people who followed Ling Xiao were pleasantly surprised.
Ling Xiao's reputation was already enough. As long as he established his sect, they would have enough confidence to roam the Central Region.
The location of his power had already been chosen. Ling Xiao could only temporarily postpone his plan to kill Sha Tian and the Gu family. After all, the Black Devils had just retreated. If they led a large army to attack the border, it would be terrible. He had to stay here to take care of the situation.
While everyone was anxiously working on various matters, Ling Xiao was the one who had the most free time.
At this time, the prodigal requested to come out of the medicine cauldron.
Ling Xiao naturally let him out.
"Zizai, you advanced again?" Ling Xiao looked at the prodigal in surprise.
He had been with the prodigal for a long time. Every time the prodigal advanced, there would be some changes.
Now, Ling Xiao also felt that the prodigal was slightly different from the time at the Lake of Sky Despair. He immediately confirmed that the prodigal had advanced again.
The prodigal scratched the back of his head and smiled. "Yes, Boss, you're really accurate!"
"F * ck, how long has it been since you advanced, and now you've advanced another level. Are you trying to let people live?" Ling Xiao cried out in shock.
At the Tianhu Extremity, the prodigal was already at the peak of the seventh-level intermediate stage. Now, he had already reached the seventh-level advanced stage. This speed made Ling Xiao speechless.
He had always known that the prodigal's advancement speed was relatively slow, but now it was so fast that it made people speechless.
The prodigal replied, "The power of the Heavenly Fire I absorbed is very strong, and it has already allowed me to reach the boundary. Furthermore, I've eaten quite a lot of Essence Qi recently, so it's only natural for me to break through."
Previously, the prodigal had absorbed one-third of the Golden Rending Dark Pearl's energy. Both of them were of the same origin energy, allowing it to reach the peak of the seventh-level intermediate stage. Furthermore, he had eaten quite a number of beast cores, so his advancement was a matter of course.
At its current stage, if it wanted to step into the Tier 8 realm, it would not take such a short period of time if there were no other opportunities.
"It's a good thing that you've become stronger. Boss' life is in your hands now!" Ling Xiao said jokingly.
To be honest, all these years, the prodigal had already helped him a lot since he was in Meteorite City.
The stronger the prodigal was, the happier he was from the bottom of his heart.
The prodigal revealed an embarrassed expression and said, "Boss, I might have to leave you again."
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What's wrong?
Do you want to return to the Desolate Mountain Range? "
The Desolate Mountain Range was the prodigal's territory, which was why Ling Xiao asked this.
The prodigal shook his head and said, "No, I have a mission for my clan that I must complete. Now that my strength has reached the requirements, it's time for me to leave and complete my mission."
"Mission?
Do you need Boss's help? "Ling Xiao didn't interrogate the prodigal. He only asked the prodigal as a Boss.
Now, he was naturally reluctant to let the prodigal leave. He and the prodigal had many years of brotherhood, which was not something that anyone could understand.
Moreover, the Black Demon Sect could attack at any time. If the prodigal left, the Flaming Earth Tiger would follow him, and he would lose a strong support. This was what Ling Xiao could not help but worry about.
The prodigal shook his head and said, "Boss, you've already helped me a lot. If not for following you, I would not have grown so quickly. This time, this is a matter of the Qilin Celestial Clan, and no humans or beasts are allowed to interfere."
Ling Xiao saw the prodigal's determined expression and did not try to persuade him any further. He immediately encouraged him, "Zizai, no matter where you are, Boss will always be your boss. If you encounter something that you can't handle, remember to call Boss. Although Boss isn't strong, he can still help you avoid some trouble."
"Thank you, Boss. This farewell might take a long time, so you have to take care. In the future, when I complete my mission, I will definitely come back to find you," the prodigal said. His eyes revealed an unprecedented fierceness, as if indicating that his mission was not that simple.
"En, you have to work hard. Boss has always been invincible since he started his career. You can't weaken Boss' reputation and embarrass Boss, do you understand?" Ling Xiao also noticed the prodigal's strange behavior and immediately said this to provoke him.
The prodigal nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I definitely won't lose face for you!"
Ling Xiao didn't say anything more. He heavily patted the prodigal's shoulder. There was no need to say anything more.
Then, Ling Xiao summoned the Dragon Lady and Xiao Jin to send the prodigal and the Flaming Earth Tiger off together.
Looking at the prodigal gradually getting further away, Ling Xiao felt an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.
After this farewell, he did not know when he would be able to see him again.
Ling Xiao found a corner and lay down on a huge tree. He took out a jar of wine and started drinking by himself.
Ling Xiao sighed and said softly, "The two of us drink together, the mountain flowers bloom, one cup after another.
I am drunk and want to sleep, but I have nowhere to go. Tomorrow I will come with my zither. "
This was Li Shixian's poem "Drinking Together in the Mountains", which happened to describe Ling Xiao's current mood.
It was a pity that the prodigal had gone far away and would not appear the next day.
Ling Xiao drank by himself and unknowingly drank a little too much. He leaned against the tree and gradually fell asleep.
The next day, after Ling Xiao woke up, his mental state had once again recovered.
He was not a sentimental person. Otherwise, he would not be able to pull himself together after every separation.
It was not that he did not have a conscience, but he knew how to hide this kind of emotional sadness in the bottom of his heart and make himself incomparably strong.
It was peaceful for a month. No one came to disturb Ling Xiao and the rest to dig the crystal mine, and no spirit beasts came to cause trouble for no reason.
Ling Xiao got thousands of people to work at the same time. After a month of digging, the number of high-grade Mystic Crystals they had obtained was already billions.
This number had already reached a shocking level.
Mystic Crystals were divided into low, medium, and high grades. Each grade was equivalent to a hundred times the next grade.
These billions of high-grade Mystic Crystals were all high-grade Mystic Crystals. If they were converted into medium or low-grade Mystic Crystals, how much would it be?
Ling Xiao could not even close his mouth.
Of course, he kept most of the high-grade Mystic Crystals. This was the foundation for establishing a force. At the same time, he distributed a portion of the rewards to all the subordinates who participated.
Ling Xiao won a lot of loyalty from his followers with this clear method of rewarding them.
At the same time, Xuan Yao had been surveying the surrounding terrain for a month. At the same time, he seemed to be setting up some kind of formation.
From what Ling Xiao heard, it seemed that he wanted to consolidate this place first. He could not let the power of the flying dragon leak out.
Ling Xiao knew nothing about this, so he let him do as he pleased. In any case, he trusted Xuan Yao.
"Young Master, now that everything has been prepared, we can already start building the main palace. But before that, we have to ask Elder Han to come," Xuan Yao said to Ling Xiao.
"Why do we need to disturb Elder Han?" Ling Xiao asked doubtfully.
"Any large force will have restrictions isolating the location of their sects to prevent outside enemies from attacking. Elder Han and Mad Tooth are both Saints, so they have shocking power. I want them to seal off this area and hide it from the eyes of ordinary warriors. This way, it will not be easy for others to find the location of our sect, unless they have the strength of Elder Han or Mad Tooth!" Xuan Yao explained.
Ling Xiao's mind lit up. Yes, he had been to the Feng Clan and the Medicine Sect. These two great forces were isolated in an unknown area. If they wanted to enter or leave, they had to use a transmission formation.
Now that he wanted to establish his force, it would be best if he could not expose the location of his force.
Now that he heard Xuan Yao mention it, he noticed this matter.
Without another word, Ling Xiao immediately arranged for Wu Fu to return to Wind Cloud City to ask for Elder Han's help.
Thinking about what he had promised Elder Han, he felt a bit guilty that he had not done so.
Han Kai and Wu Fu arrived in less than half a day.
Ling Xiao made it short and conveyed Xuan Yao's message to Han Kai.
Han Kai replied, "Constructing a Space World does not rely solely on manpower. It also requires Space Stones as a foundation to make the space permanent!"
"Space Stones?
The main material used to refine Space Rings? "Ling Xiao asked.
"Yes, the area we need to enclose is not small. Without a large number of Space Stones, there is no way to seal it," Han Kai nodded.
Ling Xiao was in a bit of a dilemma. Space Stones were rare and now he needed a large number of them. Where should he go to find them?
Han Kai saw Ling Xiao's dilemma and immediately said, "I know of a place that produces Space Stones, but it is within the sphere of influence of the Sword Splitting Sect and Spirit Night Palace."
Ling Xiao asked impatiently, "Where is it?
Even if it is a dragon's den, I will go there! "
He was not even afraid of the Black Demon Sect and the Medicine Sect, so why would he be afraid of the Sword Splitting Sect and Spirit Night Palace?
Elder Han said, "It is in the Thousand Broken Mountain Range, which is as famous as the Death Mountain Range. However, after many years of excavation, I don't know how many of them there are. I think the fastest way is to buy from either of the two sects. Perhaps it would be more practical, but the amount of Black Crystals needed would certainly not be small."
"Why does the Thousand Broken Mountain Range sound so familiar?" Ling Xiao was deeply puzzled.
