Chapter 681: Discovery of the Spiritual Stone Mine



Even if she changed her policy to one of appeasement, she couldn't accept the idea of ​​the two of them sleeping in the same bed right away.

What's more, there are so many people in the crew. If he stays at her place tonight, won't everyone know about it tomorrow?

He hadn't thought about her reputation at all.

But doesn't this just prove that he was just playing around and didn't take it seriously at all?

Shen Yizi lowered his eyes to hide the mockery in them.

If Gu Xueting knew what she was thinking, he would definitely cry out that it was unfair. She was the apple of his eye, so how could he not consider her?

He teleported here directly without anyone noticing. In the eyes of others, he had always stayed in his room and had never gone out.

Gu Xueting looked at her for a while, but couldn't bear to go against her wishes, so he touched her cheek and said, "Then you should go to bed early. Good night."

After he said that, he waited to see her reaction, but in the end he was disappointed. Instead of waiting for her to stay, he opened the door impatiently.

Gu Xueting glanced at the open door and teleported away.

Shen Yizhi looked at the empty bed, and his heart suddenly felt empty as well.

Gu Xueting stood outside Shen Yizi's window and didn't leave until the lights went out.

However, shortly after he left, Shen Yizi opened the window, jumped out of the window, and left the village.

After Gu Xueting left, Shen Yizi was in a daze for a while. He originally wanted to practice, but he couldn't calm down, so he decided to go out for a walk.

But she didn't want to alarm anyone, so she went straight out the window. Anyway, with her current cultivation level, it was easy for her to jump down from the second-floor window.

Gu Xueting noticed it immediately, and his figure suddenly disappeared and followed.

Shen Yizi walked all the way to the lake. There were bursts of insects chirping in the mountains, and the gentle night breeze carried wisps of lotus fragrance, which was refreshing.

The full moon in the sky had just risen to the middle of the sky, and its moonlight sprinkled down. Half of the lake was covered with moonlight, while the other half was covered by the shadow cast by the mountain wall.

This created a strange scene, half bright and half dark. If you look from the sky, you can see that the entire lake has become a Yin-Yang Tai Chi fish.

The system said, "This is actually a natural spirit gathering formation. Do you want to go down and take a look? There may be some treasure hidden underneath."

Shen Yizi thought about it for a moment and made a decision.

She performed the "Cloud-Tracing Strange Steps" and her body was like a light cloud. She stepped onto the lake surface and sank into the "fish eye" in the lake.

Gu Xueting was startled and followed closely behind, but even though he was running at his fastest speed, he was still a step slower.

The "fish eye" appeared for too short a time and was fleeting, so he was unable to enter the formation.

The moment the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, Shen Yizhi opened his eyes and saw a crystal-clear scene. Large pieces of crystal-clear stones were exposed on the stone wall. As far as the eye could see, the colors of those crystal stones were milky white, light blue, dark blue, and dark blue.

System: "There is a top-grade spirit stone mine hidden here."

"Spirit stone...ore?" Shen Yizi's throat felt a little tight.

She was no longer a novice who had just started practicing spiritual cultivation, so she naturally knew what the spirit stone mine meant.

Now the spiritual energy has revived, but it is far from being dense, so spirit stones have become something that everyone desires.

She had only heard of spirit stones, but had never seen one, let alone owned one. And now, there was a spirit stone mine in front of her.

Even with Shen Yizhi's temperament, his heart couldn't help but pounding at this moment.

System: "Host, you are really lucky. The colors of those spirit stones range from light to dark, and the grades range from low to high. Milky white is low-grade, light blue is medium-grade, dark blue is high-grade, and dark blue is top-grade. Only top-grade spirit stone mines can produce top-grade spirit stones.

"Generally, top-quality mineral veins can only produce a few of them, but here they are all connected."

Even the system couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Shen Yizi had never come into contact with spirit stones, and had no idea what the system said. She only knew that the spiritual energy here was extremely rich, as thick as fog, and it rushed into her body without her having to practice any skills.

Her cultivation had already reached the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining, and she was only one step away from a breakthrough. At this moment, a huge and pure spiritual energy entered her body, and she broke through directly in one fell swoop, advancing to the seventh level of Qi Refining.

However, this is not the end. Her advancement has not ended. She went from the early stage of the seventh level of Qi Refining... the middle stage... the late stage... the early stage of the ninth level of Qi Refining... the middle stage... the late stage, all the way to the peak of the late stage of the tenth level of Qi Refining. No matter how much she absorbed spiritual energy, she could not cross that hurdle, and her rapid growth in cultivation stopped.

It took only half an hour to break through from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the peak of Qi Refining. It was as easy as eating and drinking. It was estimated that she was the only person in history who had broken through so easily.

Shen Yizi stood up, his eyes reflecting the brilliance of the spirit stone, a light that was too radiant to be looked at directly.

She couldn't help but reach out to the spiritual stone wall on one side.

"Wait." The system hurriedly stopped her.

Shen Yizhi paused, "What's wrong?"

"Take a close look at those spirit stones."

Shen Yizi looked intently and suddenly discovered that there were small insects of the same color lying on those spirit stones. They were a bit similar to ladybugs, but their bodies were translucent and had a delicate and cold feeling.

They were motionless, almost integrated with the spirit stone, and without revealing any breath. No wonder she didn't notice them before.

"What kind of bug is this?"

It would have been fine if she hadn't noticed it before, but once she noticed it, she discovered that the spirit stone wall was densely packed with these insects. Although they were individually cute and delicate, it was a bit scary to see so many of them gathered together.

Shen Yizi couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp and took a few steps back.

"Spirit beetles feed on spiritual energy and will not inhabit anything other than the finest spiritual stone mines. Once these bugs get close to you, they will cling to you tightly and won't stop until they have drained all the spiritual energy out of your body."

As he imagined that scene, Shen Yizi shuddered all over.

Her breathing suddenly became much lighter. It would be bad if she startled these little creatures.

"Although the spirit beetles are small, their defense is not low. Their seemingly fragile shells can withstand a full-strength attack from a foundation-building cultivator. Moreover, being small also has its advantages. They are not easily noticed. If you can subdue a few spirit beetles and release them during a battle, they can devour the enemy's spiritual energy in a matter of minutes."

"Well, so what?" Shen Yizi raised her eyebrows. The system would not speak without purpose. It said so much, could it be trying to trick her into buying something again?

In the end, she actually guessed it right.

"'The Promise'? A method for cultivating spiritual consciousness? After practicing it, can you use spiritual consciousness to imprint a mark on a living being and control it?"

"That's right, 990,000 reputation points, a huge discount. Do you want one?"

"Give it to me." Shen Yizi was very straightforward this time.

"I'm telling you, if you miss this opportunity, you'll miss it forever. If you—wait, you want it?"

"Want me to repeat that?"

Shen Yizi had a feeling that the system was becoming increasingly dumber. It had been so arrogant and domineering at the beginning, but now it was so slow.
