Chapter 14 - Spirit Stones ah Spirit Stones


Yue Qianchou was smiling widely, he severely bit the meat into his mouth, then swallowed hastily, his face was startled, seemed to be chocked, hurriedly patted his chest, the other hand took up a pot of wine, and drank a mouthful of it, finally hit a long burp. With a grin he told the White Fox about the golden bead, the latter became stunned, she did not expect that the golden bead had such a wondrous function.

Yue Qianchou said with a teasing tone, "Big Sister White, don't you ever get tired of staying in this dark place for so long? Come to my place instead, it is quieter there, absolutely no one will bother you."

The White Fox stared at Yue Qianchou with a deadpan eyes, softly said, "Little Brother Chou, I thought you wanted to soar in your cultivation, however, I feel that I haven't seen you cultivated these past few days," Shortly after, she went to continue her zither play again.

Excessive attention to trivia saps the will ah! Yue Qianchou began to think that these past few days he was immersed with his little play, his feeling was down and ashamed, the half chicken leg in his hand was thrown afar, "Pa!" With a sound, it fell into the pool. The White Fox who was playing her zither slightly frowned.

WIthout further ado, Yue Qianchou sat cross-legged with two spirit stones in his hands and closed his eyes. Profound Heavenly Art slowly circulated, inhaled spiritual Qi to be converted into true Qi for his body. The used spirit stones were thrown into the water, in his hands appeared two new spirit stones, when he once again converted spiritual Qi into true Qi, he found that the true Qi in his body was filled to the brim, his dantian could no longer contain it.

Yue Qianchou was amazed, these spirit stones are a good thing, he only absorbed six pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, but the conversion to true Qi would enough to breakthrough to Qi Condensation level five. How long should it take to absorb spiritual Qi from the air to compare to these six mid grade spirit stones?

No longer hesitating, Yue Qianchou circulated Profound heavenly Art again, he began his cultivation with a full attention. This Qi Condensation stage of level five to ten is actually very simple, not as difficult as level one to four to open the eight meridians fully, as long as one absorbed enough spiritual Qi, basically not a big problem.

For the last few days, Yue Qianchou poured every bit of true Qi into the dantian, it seemed as if he could feel the qualitative change of every cell in his body, he exclaimed in his heart, "Finally reached level five!"

Seeing the change in his dantian, Yue Qianchou found that the dantian that previously filled with true Qi became slightly empty, only a few true Qi could be seen wandering around, but the ratio of pale true Qi and tangible true Qi was different compared to before.

He focused his mind, from the dantian he guided a wisp of mist toward his body, the mist went out of the dantian, it suddenly turned into boundless true Qi, filled his whole body, busting full of explosive power. It matched the attacking technique of the Profound Heavenly Art, Yue Qianchou's two eyes fiercely opened, with a palm he struck towards the pool.

The cave issued a loud bang with echo, the surface of the pool was blown away a few meters high before falling down. The sound of zither suddenly came to a halt, Yue Qianchou looked back and laughed with a blooming face, the White Fox eyes stared at him, apparently blamed him for disturbing her zither play.

Yue Qianchou immediately begged for forgiveness, but the other party only gave him a glance, too lazy to care about him, then continued to play the song, "Yesterday is like a river flowing from the East, faraway leaving me behind..." Yue Qianchou didn't mind it, he turned and sat down, there were two spirit stones appeared in his hands again, his eyes slowly closed.

"Uh! the tangible true Qi in the dantian is almost a third..." Yue Qianchou sat in front of the pavilion, suddenly jumped up and shouted, "Shit! Where are my spirit stones? Who stole Father's spirit stones?"

The White Fox was surprised at first and stopped her playing, the two lips parted slightly about to say some words, but Yue Qianchou's body suddenly disappeared, the former got slightly irritated, slender fingers caressed the strings, a harmonious tone echoed in the cave again.

"Spirit stones, spirit stones, where are my spirit stones?" A deer was sleeping on the grass, suddenly a figure appeared out of thin air, scared the deer, it then desperately escaped.

Yue Qianchou went to the world inside the golden bead, where it was already planted with flowers and plants. Two colorful pheasants were mating, they were also surprised and flew away. Yue Qianchou didn't know what else to do, he took out the bag his master gave him, after flipping through it, he finally found the problem, hand slapped his forehead while sitting on the ground, exclaimed, "Hey! My spirit stones have already run out, what a terrible thing!"

It had to be known that spirit stones are not so easy to obtain, there are several spirit stone mines within the sphere influence of the Green Light Sect. The spirit stones were mined every month and allocated according to the sect rules. The ancestors in the seclusion at the back of the mountain would receive two pieces of top-grade spirit stones, the Sect Leader would receive one piece of top-grade spirit stone, the elders were given 50 pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, Core Formation stage disciples could obtain 25 pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, Foundation Establishment stage would receive 10 pieces of mid-grade and 250 pieces of low-grade spirit stones, while Qi Condensation above level four could get 500 pieces of low-grade spirit stones each month.

The Green Light Sect income of spirit stones in the cultivation world was not small, but with more than a thousand of people, if they wanted to make everyone satisfied, it was impossible, only by the strict distribution that it could work, because it involved the interests of the whole sect, even the Sect Leader did not dare to be selfish, otherwise even with the position of a sect leader, he would be punished to death.

Of course, only half of the mined spirit stones every month were allocated for distribution, while the half were the properties of the Sect Hall. This was of course for the trading of the essential items for the sect, or to give some rewards to the disciples with a good merit.

Supposedly, Yue Qianchou should be able to receive 500 pieces of low grade spirit stones each month for the Qi Condensation level four and above. However, he concealed his cultivation base, no news came up, it did not pass the sect hall examination record. Naturally, there was no wage without a report. In fact, Hao Sansi 50 pieces of mid-grade spirit stones per month wouldn't be enough. Yue Qianchou used more than 10 pieces in no time.

"Hey! How can my cultivation go on without spirit stones ah! Even if I get 500 pieces of low-grade spirit stones in a month, it's only equal to five pieces of mid-grade, now with 10 pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, dantian is filled up to one-third of tangible true Qi, to breakthrough to level six, I will need at least 20 mid-grade spirit stones, equal to 2.000 pieces of low-grade, but if I want to cultivate till level ten, how many spirit stones needed ah!" Complained Yue Qianchou, he was a bit unwilling.

With six mid-grade spirit stones, he rose to Qi Condensation level five, the result of crossing from five to six used ten pieces of spirit stones, his dantian was filled with one-third of tangible true Qi, the need for each level of absorbing spiritual Qi was growing continuously. If that method used until the late Tribulation Crossing, it would take a mountain-like spirit stones.

Yue Qianchou was feeling really down, people with his name, if removed the surname, it would be 'Thousand of sorrows', if he did not use the spirit stones, but to work hard sucking his own marrow, it would take a long time to absorb the heaven and earth spiritual Qi, he worried that he would not live long enough because of lacking in cultivation.

There was one thing that Yue Qianchou didn't know, his dantian volume was three times larger than the average people, if the average people's dantian equivalent to two days growth, his was equivalent to six days of growth. In fact, the average people only needed one-third of spirit stones consumption to rise a level.

Master Hao Sansi didn't know what happened, gave spirit stones enough for half a month according to his calculation. In other words, Hao Sansi gave him spirit stones for his disciple to rise a few levels.

"No way, I can only wait for Master to come back to think the way," Yue Qianchou felt dejected and stood up, in the distance, there was a pheasant's cry, listened to the sound it was probably laying some eggs. This was precisely because of Yue Qianchou's little play at that time, he deliberately grabbed a male and a female, hoping to lay some eggs, and then hatched to more small pheasants, that way he could eat roasted pheasant at any time.

However, he was in no mood now, he looked up lazily, then his head hung down again. "What?" The downcast head raised again. Looking around, his own space seemed to double in size, now afraid it might have reached the radius of nearly one kilometer.

Yue Qianchou closed his eyes while focusing his mind, although larger, but it was still in his grasp... ... Ah! There were nine eggs in the pheasant nest. Not long after he understood why, this golden bead had become one with himself, if not guessed wrong, then as his cultivation rising, the space would grow larger as well.

Having a little happy moment, the loss of spirit stones diluted a lot. He wandered around in his own turf, then went back to the pavilion.

For his sudden appearance and disappearance, the White Fox had been numb about it, her eyes looked up, the zither came to a stop, with a soft voice she asked, "A month has passed, are you going to go back?"

"Ah! Time to go back, it has been a few days past the actual time, I need to greet master," Yue Qianchou turned his back and waved his hand, "Big Sister White, I will see you again," Behind him, the reply was 'A New Dream of an Affectionate Couple of Butterflies'.

Back to the yard, Yue Qianchou searched the place around, the strange thing was his master didn't come back, if that wasn't the case, the ground certainly wouldn't be so clean. He pulled over a piece of bamboo, his finger wiped on the surface, no dust was seen, had to praise the air quality here compared to his previous life, he turned around and laid his body down comfortably.

"What!? Why do so many people running toward the sect hall?" Feeling awakened, Yue Qianchou slightly raised his body, with his current cultivation it was not a problem to hear people running nearby. After a brief pause, he closed his eyes and muttered, "Whatever, it's not my problem."

Not long after he laid down, he heard someone outside was shouting on the courtyard, "Is Martial Uncle Yue Qianchou in?" Even without shouting, Yue Qianchou would hear it, he wondered why someone visited to him. Walked outside the house, an unfamiliar disciple saluted him, "Martial Uncle Yue, Sect Leader ordered you to hurry to the Green Light Hall."

"Sect Leader ordered me to go to the Green Light Hall? What happened?" Yue Qianchou asked curiously. Originally, no one had ever sought him before, not to mention the Sect Leader, whom he had not seen again since joining the Green Light Sect.

The disciple looked flustered, as if there was something bad he had to say, a little silence, with a stomp he finally revealed the news, "Elder Hao led the team to 'Rookie Convention', on they way of coming back, they found a spiritual plant, but due to meeting with the Great Canopy Sect, they got into conflict, the result was several elders were injured. However, Elder Hao injury was the most serious....."

Hearing that, Yue Qianchou's face became pale, he had no mind to continue listening, hurriedly ran toward the direction of Green Light hall.
