At this moment, Ouyang Chen was filled with regret. Just yesterday, he had spent 1.4 million spirit stones in Xuande Hall to purchase an ancient formation manual, leaving him with only 3.23 million spirit stones.
He had assumed that with so many spirit stones, taking the Blood Cup Stone would be a breeze. Never had he expected that the Young Island Master of Manghuang Mountain would already have his eye on it.
With the many precious items Ouyang Chen possessed, raising another ten or twenty million spirit stones would have been easy. Yet after considering the matter again and again, he still abandoned the idea.
With Ouyang Chen's current abilities, even facing three or four Peak Core Formation cultivators, he would not feel the slightest fear. The only person who made him somewhat apprehensive was the Young Island Master of Manghuang Mountain.
Back then, inside Jingyun Sect's ultimate formation, Ouyang Chen had intended to rely on his techniques, secret arts, and the formidable formation's power to kill Qin Fengming on the spot. But after trying, he had no choice but to abandon the thought.
The Young Island Master of Manghuang Mountain had entered the perilous Sky Flame Mountain Range despite possessing only Peak Foundation Establishment cultivation.
