A New Source of Points: Spirit Stones
"Call..."
Dongfang Yueming exhaled a long breath, feeling the perfect and inexhaustible spiritual power within his body, and his mind became clear.
He glanced at the panel again.
[Points:74500]
[I still have quite a few points left, I'll save them for later and use them to upgrade my ' Martial Dao ' Divine Ability.]
He pondered to himself, "[However, 70,000 points is still a bit low for Minor Accomplishment Divine Ability that reaches 30,000 points.]"
He suddenly remembered something, and his consciousness once again sank into the storage bag.
The first thing he opened was the storage bag of Shang Jiuyou, the sect leader of Cloud-Overturning Gate Sect.
Among a pile of pills and miscellaneous items, a small cluster of crystals emitting a soft glow caught his attention.
[This is... a spirit stone?]
He took out one and circulated it according to the cultivation technique. An energy more than ten times purer than the spiritual energy of heaven and earth instantly surged into his body!
[Ding! Absorbed 1 low-grade spirit stone, gained 100 points!]
Dongfang Yueming's eyes lit up!
Without further hesitation, he absorbed all seventy spirit stones from Shang Jiuyou's storage bag!
[Points +7000!]
Then, he opened Xiao Tiance's storage bag.
Although he is the leader of the Heaven-Surging Alliance, his foundation is far less substantial than that of Shang Jiuyou.
However, in addition to the twenty-five low-grade spirit stones, he also found a pair of lace gloves that were entirely blue and engraved with complex runes.
When he infused it with spiritual power, a layer of water-like spiritual light instantly appeared on the surface of the glove!
"A spiritual artifact..." A hint of surprise flashed in Dongfang Yueming's eyes, "Although it's only the lowest grade, first-tier, low-grade, it's still not bad."
In addition, he discovered a list written on special animal hides, which detailed dozens of rare and precious natural treasures, as well as a detailed plan for cultivating the "Nine Yin Mystic Physique"!
The list concludes with the statement. "Once Qu Yutang's body Major Accomplishment, he can absorb Yin to replenish Yang, helping me to forge an unparalleled Dao Foundation!"
Dongfang Yueming understood instantly.
[So that's how it is. Qu Yutang has a special constitution. The reason Xiao Tiance kept her was that he intended to use her as a future 'furnace' for him.]
He shook his head, casually destroyed the list, and ignored it.
As time passed, the detailed account of the "Battle of the Cloud Water Capital" spread like wildfire throughout the entire Cloud Water Dynasty and even the surrounding regions.
"Have you heard? That ' Dongfang Ri ' actually broke through to the Innate Realm at the very last moment of battle!"
"That's not all! It's said that after his breakthrough, he instantly killed Xiao Tiance, who had devoured the Cloudwater Sect's patriarch! That's the leader of the Heaven-Surging Alliance!"
"Hiss... This is too unbelievable!"
"However, it's a pity! I heard he offended the ' Nirvana Sect,' a super power in the Central Continent! Moreover, his Innate Physique is only of average foundation; his future achievements will probably end here."
In the streets and alleys, in teahouses and taverns, everywhere was filled with discussions about this earth-shattering battle.
In an inconspicuous corner of a tavern, a man dressed in black, exuding a cold aura, was silently listening to the conversation of the crowd.
When he heard someone vividly describing the "strange cone that could suck people's life essence" in Xiao Tiance's hand, his eyes, which were like those of a venomous snake, suddenly lit up!
He rose silently and went to the storyteller.
"You, repeat what you just said in more detail." His voice was hoarse and cold.
The storyteller was engrossed in his tale when he was interrupted. He was about to get angry, but the moment he met those eyes, he felt a chilling coldness rise from the bottom of his heart and instantly spread throughout his body!
He dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly told everything he knew in detail.
The man in black listened quietly, and finally focused his attention on a key piece of information.
[That awl, in the end, fell into the hands of the man named ' Dongfang Ri '.]
He asked no more questions, turned around, and disappeared into the crowd.
[A Innate who has just broken through to the Innate Realm dares to lay a finger on the spiritual treasures of my Blood Refining Sect? He's... courting death!]
[Since he's caused such a commotion, his target must also be the Central Domain.]
[Very good, I'll head out ahead and wait for you!]
A figure filled with murderous intent, like a ghost, silently sped towards the Central Domain.
His aura was already... at the Innate Sixth Level!
