The Desire for a Spirit Root

Seeing the police chief's utterly devastated expression, Yi Xuan couldn't help but chuckle.

Not to mention inviting all the cultivators from the surrounding area.

Given the strength of this person before us, even the top experts from the Central Continent would probably be helpless against him.

Yi Xuan, however, didn't quite understand.

Isn't Venerable Yuan currently racking his brains over the matter of the merging of the immortal kingdoms?

How did you end up in Southern Frontier?

And it looks so absurd?

Is it really easier than I imagined?

Has the Heavenly Dog's crisis been resolved?

Thinking of this, Yi Xuan quickly stepped forward.

Venerable Yuan, who was dancing in the dance floor, also sensed the person behind him.

A pair of drunken eyes turned to look.

At first, they didn't notice Yi Xuan, but instead focused their attention on the guy in the suit.

"Yo! Boss Xu, you're here. Did I run out of Spirit Stone again? Don't worry, I have Spirit Stone!"

With that, he waved his hand, and a small pile of spirit Spirit Stone, glowing with a faint light, appeared on the ground, numbering about a hundred.

Moreover, each one is Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone.

"You're joking! The Spirit Stone you had before were enough for you to play here for a year!"

At this point, Boss Xu turned to look at Yi Xuan with a troubled expression.

Seeing Yi Xuan nod, he said, "Look, I've brought you a friend!"

Following Boss Xu's direction, Venerable Yuan focused his gaze on Yi Xuan.

Upon seeing Yi Xuan's familiar face, Venerable Yuan revealed a strange smile, "Yo! Yi boy, you've come!"

But then Venerable Yuan's face immediately returned to its previous drunken, hazy state.

He continued to hold the woman beside him and shook his head.

"Venerable Yuan! What's wrong with you?"

Upon hearing Yi Xuan's question, Venerable Yuan's writhing body visibly paused, then he revealed a look of rapture.

"Haha, me? I'm doing great! Let me tell you, Yi, I didn't expect you to have made such a good impression on Southern Frontier! I've lived this long and never enjoyed anything like this before! What a waste it would have been if that dog had really consumed it all! Look how wonderful it is now..."

Venerable Yuan pointed at the swaying crowd on the dance floor and laughed, "What Heavenly Dog, what saving the world? For me right now, nothing is as tangible as what's right in front of me!"

As he spoke, Venerable Yuan snapped his fingers at Boss Xu: "Everyone's bill tonight is on me!"

Upon hearing that Venerable Yuan had spoken, Boss Xu naturally nodded in agreement with a broad smile.

Seeing Venerable Yuan still engrossed in the dance floor, Boss Xu turned to Yi Xuan with a troubled expression. "Mister Yi! What do you think of this...?"

"Go and figure out how to disperse the people in the dance floor, leave the rest to me!"

Soon, under Boss Xu's arrangement, the number of people dancing on the dance floor gradually decreased.

It's unclear whether Venerable Yuan was truly engrossed in it, or if he simply didn't care about his surroundings.

It wasn't until the noisy music suddenly stopped that Venerable Yuan realized the dance floor was completely empty except for him and the two girls beside him.

"What's going on? Where are they? Where's the music? Boss Xu? Keep the music playing!"

"Pat-pat-pat!"

Yi Xuan walked step by step from the shadows to stand before Venerable Yuan.

"Haha, Yi, you haven't left yet?"

The moment Venerable Yuan saw Yi Xuan, the smile on his face brightened considerably.

"Perfect timing! Go tell Boss Xu to quickly liven up the atmosphere, or I'll get angry!"

Yi Xuan ignored Venerable Yuan's words and instead waved to the two girls beside him.

The two of them tactfully left Venerable Yuan's side quickly.

"Where are you going? Keep dancing!"

After calling out a couple of times and seeing that the two girls showed no sign of returning, Venerable Yuan stopped talking. Instead, he turned around, picked up a bottle of wine from the table, and drank it down in one gulp.

Venerable Yuan's clothes were quickly soaked with wine at the chest.

Yi Xuan also sighed and sat down next to Venerable Yuan.

"Senior! What happened? What's wrong with you?"

Yi Xuan couldn't understand why Venerable Yuan had never wavered in the face of the threat of the Heavenly Dog for thousands of years.

What could possibly have shattered his beliefs so completely that he no longer cared about the fate of the world?

"What happened?"

Venerable Yuan looked down at Yi Xuan sitting in front of him and smiled, saying, "Nothing happened! I've just figured it out! I've toiled for the entire Cultivation Realm for tens of millions of years; it's time to rest!"

Even Venerable Yuan himself couldn't help but sigh at this point.

Seeing Venerable Yuan's dejected appearance, Yi Xuan knew that even if he didn't know what Venerable Yuan had gone through.

The fact that Venerable Yuan turned out this way must be no small matter.

"The Sea Clan and the Barbarian Clan have broken their promise!"

Before Yi Xuan could even ask, Venerable Yuan, sitting opposite him, slowly uttered those words.

"What? Wasn't this agreed upon in the first place?"

When Venerable Yuan saw Yi Xuan crack the Light-Speed Engine, he actually told Yi Xuan his entire National Fortune Plan.

Yi Xuan was naturally aware of the importance of the Barbarian Clan and Sea Clan in this plan.

To put it bluntly, without the participation of the Barbarian Clan and Sea Clan, the National Fortune formed by the Human Clan alone was simply insufficient to effectively harm the Heavenly Dog.

It was clearly the result of discussions among many Cultivation Realm, so why did the two races break their promise at the very end? Yi Xuan couldn't understand it.

Therefore, Venerable Yuan truthfully recounted the entire cause and effect.

To put it bluntly, after the previous eight attempts, a crisis of trust in Venerable Yuan arose among the various races.

The Human Clan is relatively easy to deal with, because Venerable Yuan himself is the supreme leader of the Human Clan.

Therefore, even if the people below have some opinions, it will not affect the progress of the entire plan.

But Barbarian Clan and Sea Clan are different.

Although they showed Venerable Yuan exceptional respect, Venerable Yuan had no better recourse if they broke their promise.

The only solution is to resolve this through force.

But after resolving the issue by force, can the National Fortune truly achieve the desired outcome?

Venerable Yuan knew in his heart that it was highly unlikely.

Therefore, under the double blow of a crisis of trust and the failure of its plans, Venerable Yuan ultimately chose to give up.

Yi Xuan pondered for a moment, then looked at Venerable Yuan and muttered to himself, "Hai Qingshi?"

What a distant name!

Yi Xuan never imagined that the Sea Clan who could only escape in panic with the help of external forces under his command would now become the leader of the entire Sea Clan. How unpredictable life is!

Yi Xuan clearly remembered that this guy possessed a secret technique capable of seizing Spirit Root.

Although Yi Xuan no longer needs to worry about his strength or lifespan, his obsession with cultivating immortality has never faded.

Therefore, upon hearing the news about the Hai Qingshi, their first reaction was to go and ask for that secret technique.

Of course, this process will not be easy, so Yi Xuan is also prepared to resolve it by force!
