Fare

He suddenly recalled the information the system had given him previously in the Green Field Mystic Realm.

A mere mystic realm only accessible to Qi Refining cultivators actually had a Soul Formation cultivator to open its entrance. The formidable strength of their sect was evident.

Because of this, he suddenly no longer found it strange that Senior Liao, a Nascent Soul cultivator, had not traveled through the entire cultivation world either.

Thinking of the Green Field Mystic Realm, he suddenly remembered something.

Senior, what about your previous sect?

Liao Pantu took a sip of clear tea. Seeing him bring up his former sect, he said with a calm expression,

You mean the Tianluo Sect. Over two hundred years ago, the sect master of the Tianluo Sect passed away. A friend of mine was the sect master's eldest disciple and took over the position. At that time, the Tianluo Sect was in decline. He invited me, who was a rogue cultivator then, to join. It just so happened that I was also looking to take in a disciple at the time, so I joined. I just didn't expect...

Lin Xiao poured himself a cup of tea and said,

Are you still planning to go back now?

Hearing this, Liao Pantu glared at him and said,

What? We agreed that you would help me find the rest of my soul and physical body. Are you trying to back out?

Lin Xiao smiled helplessly,

How could I? I was just worried that you might have deep feelings for your original sect.

Hearing this, Liao Pantu rolled his eyes at him,

You're so young, yet you don't learn the good things. Stop learning from others to beat around the bush all day! If he had deep feelings for the Tianluo Sect, he wouldn't have been willing to leave it and join the Lingxian Sect just to read their sect's mental cultivation methods back then.

Setting down the teacup in his hand, Liao Pantu changed the subject and said,

Feel it for yourself, see if you notice anything.

Lin Xiao didn't understand, but he still earnestly checked his body for any changes.

Immediately, he discovered that his spiritual sense seemed a bit stronger than before!

He looked at Liao Pantu in pleasant surprise, only to see him looking pleased as he said,

How is it? The effect of my bed made from Soul-Nourishing Giant Wood isn't bad, right?

Lin Xiao nodded heavily and said,

This is amazing! If I sleep on it every day, won't my spiritual sense become incredibly powerful?

Heh, you're quite young, but you sure dream big. If that were really the case, I would have possessed the spiritual sense strength of the Soul Formation stage or even the Void Refinement stage decades ago.

Alright, let's go out for a stroll in a bit. I'll take a country bumpkin like you to see the city here.

With that said, he stood up, intending to open the restrictions set up in this cave mansion to prepare to head out.

However, when he walked to the entrance of the cave mansion and used his spiritual sense to connect with the restrictions, he discovered that someone outside was trying to forcefully break through the outermost illusion array. He raised an eyebrow.

Good heavens, he hadn't been back for decades, and someone had actually come treasure hunting at his place?

Without hesitation, he opened the entrance to the outermost illusion array and let the people outside in.

Outside, the three Qi Refining cultivators had been tinkering for a day and a night without any reaction from the place. They had almost wanted to give up, but unexpectedly, an entrance suddenly opened before them.

The originally somewhat dejected trio was overjoyed at this sight. Thinking that their previous efforts had finally paid off, they hurried into the entrance without a second thought.

Sensing that three young Qi Refining stage cultivators had entered the array, Liao Pantu paused for a moment, then felt somewhat dissatisfied.

The cave mansion of a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, and it only attracted three little Qi Refining shrimps? Who were they looking down on!

At the very least, it should be Foundation Establishment or Golden Core cultivators!

Angry as he was, Liao Pantu still lowered the difficulty of the illusion array a bit, aiming to scare these little shrimps silly without scaring them to death.

After all, he hadn't been back in decades, and he didn't really want too many lives lost around his long-lost cave mansion.

Besides, who knew if these three Qi Refining brats had any backing?

Currently, he didn't have the ability to deal with their backers, so scaring them and driving them away would suffice.

Behind him, Lin Xiao saw him standing at the door, seemingly communicating with the defenses set up in the cave mansion, so he didn't disturb him. Instead, he sat in his chair and looked around.

Although he had already taken a tour yesterday, he hadn't noticed many details. Looking at it again now, there were still many things that amazed him.

A Nascent Soul cultivator was truly too wealthy.

When would he ever reach this cultivation level...

Suddenly, he saw the spot where they had first arrived yesterday. The Universe Shifting Array Disk was still lying quietly on the ground. He quickly went over, picked it up, and put it into his private storage.

Thinking of the two thousand spirit stones he had thrown into it earlier, he was a bit curious about how much this trip had cost. Therefore, he used the appraisal function on this Universe Shifting Array Disk.

Universe Shifting Array Disk, an Earth-rank array disk capable of teleporting you to any place you wish to go (provided you know the exact location). Maximum capacity is five people. It can be used by inserting spirit stones or in conjunction with a Spirit Gathering Array. The specific teleportation distance depends on the spiritual energy value absorbed by the array disk and the exact number of people in the array. Current spiritual energy value of this array disk: 287 (the ratio of spirit stones to spiritual energy value is 1:1).

???

Lin Xiao backed out in disbelief and appraised it once more.

However, the number following the array disk's current spiritual energy value still displayed 287.

He was a bit dumbfounded.

Good heavens, a single teleportation actually cost over one thousand seven hundred spirit stones?

So when Senior Liao put in two thousand stones all at once earlier, he wasn't putting in extra, but was estimating just about the right amount?

Then when it was time for him to go back, wouldn't he have to spend that many spirit stones again?

All of a sudden, Lin Xiao, who had fifty thousand spirit stones on him, no longer felt all that wealthy.

Oh, right, the storage ring containing the spirit stones was still with Senior Liao.

Thinking of this expensive travel fare, Lin Xiao felt a bit stifled.

He had to try his best to complete all the tasks for coming to the cultivation world in one go, otherwise spending this much on travel fare would hurt too much.

At the entrance, after successfully letting the three little Qi Refining shrimps into the adjusted illusion array, Liao Pantu turned around, highly satisfied, intending to call Lin Xiao to head out.

But unexpectedly, as soon as he turned his head, he saw him looking as if his heart was bleeding.

Seeing him standing where they had appeared yesterday, and noticing that the Universe Shifting Array Disk on the ground was gone, he instantly understood why this kid looked like that. Thus, he spoke with great disdain,

Look at your worthless appearance. You are now a sect master who owns an entire spirit stone mine, and this spirit stone mine is even nourished by a spirit vein. This starting point is already much better than many small sects. What's there to heartache over a mere two thousand spirit stones? Just the spirit stones on my roof here number no less than a hundred thousand.

Not comforted in the slightest, Lin Xiao glanced at him and said,

Then can I pry away your roof?

Choking on his words, Liao Pantu immediately blew his beard and glared, refusing,

No! What am I supposed to do if you pry away my roof!

Lin Xiao spread his hands and shrugged, saying,

Even if I have a mine, I still need to be frugal. I have to consider the long-term development of the sect, right?

Saying that, he asked,

Senior, let's hurry up and go out. I need to make the most of my time! I must carefully complete all the tasks for this trip to the cultivation world, and then go back to cultivate properly!
