Chapter 249: Suddenly Lost In Confusion
“Haha, one sword to kill me? Can you bear to do that?”
Ling Mo laughed loudly.
Actually, at the beginning, Qian Renxue really wanted to do this, but unfortunately… she ran into Ling Mo, this scoundrel.
No matter how she attacked, she couldn’t cause any harm to Ling Mo, to the point that gradually, she found the gap with Ling Mo getting smaller and smaller.
At this rate, Ling Mo’s soul power would soon catch up to hers!
She didn’t know how this guy cultivated; his breakthroughs were even simpler than eating and drinking.
Thinking about it slowly, it wasn’t without reason! With the Cold Jade Bed, plus that strange dual cultivation method, this guy leveling up quickly had its reasons.
Not to mention those immortal grasses and immortal medicines; anyway, he was full of treasures.
“You, you’ve got the bargain and still act all coy!”
Qian Renxue glared at him grumpily, then continued: “By the way, when I just got back earlier, I sensed a strange energy fluctuation in the Back Mountain.
What are you up to in the Back Mountain? Why did several kinds of element powers appear at the same time!
Moreover, I felt the soul power fluctuation there was very strong…”
Qian Renxue still didn’t know about the Back Mountain incident, because she had just returned today too.
“Oh, you’re talking about that! Here…”
With that, Ling Mo took out a few soul stones and handed them to Qian Renxue.
Then he explained: “Actually, it’s nothing much. A while ago when I was grave robbery, I accidentally dug a bit too deep.
I directly dug into the Underground Abyss, and then found this thing!
I don’t know if I’m the only one in this world who has discovered this thing.
After all, not everyone has this special hobby like me.”
Ling Mo couldn’t help but sigh; sometimes luck really was hard to explain.
“This is…”
Qian Renxue took the soul stones and examined them carefully; her expression turned sour.
This… there was actually such a thing in the world? Simply unbelievable.
In all her years, she had truly never seen this kind of special energy stone that could be used for cultivation.
“This is called soul stone! Its effect is simple: it can be directly absorbed, greatly increasing cultivation speed, with no influence and excellent results…”
Ling Mo explained slowly, and Qian Renxue gradually understood the terrifying aspect of this thing.
“I really don’t know what in this world you don’t have…”
Qian Renxue was speechless; how did Ling Mo always manage to pull out things she had never even heard of.
“Hehe! Let me put it this way: actually, deep underground in this continent where we survive, there are many such stones hidden.
After years of accumulation and nourishment from world law, they slowly gained a certain amount of soul power.
However, the reason they haven’t been discovered all these years is simple: because… this thing is hidden at the deepest part underground, tens of thousands of meters down.
At such depths, even if I free-fell straight down, it took three days and three nights, let alone digging.
Therefore, these things can’t possibly be discovered by people, and no one would idle around digging for no reason.”
Ling Mo had roughly guessed the origin of the soul stones and understood why this thing didn’t circulate on the continent.
The reason was simple: it was hidden too deep, probably even in the earth’s core.
It wasn’t that it couldn’t be dug up, but no one knew it existed, so no one would dig for it.
There was another key reason: although soul stones were hidden deep underground, they were very scattered. Even if you wanted to dig, unless you dug through the entire continent.
Otherwise, it would be very hard to find them; this was completely a matter of probability, where luck mattered more than anything.
Fortunately, Ling Mo had dug quite a few in the Underground Abyss before, more than enough to support the Ghost Gate’s operation for a few hundred years.
As for others! If they wanted to dig, Ling Mo was happy to tell them, but whether they could dig any up depended on heaven’s will.
Anyway, Ling Mo didn’t think anyone could dig them out; it was simply unrealistic.
“Such a rare and precious thing, hidden deep underground, and you still managed to dig it out. Compared to the soul stone, I’m more shocked by your boldness…
What kind of spirit could make you so persistently dig for these things.
Don’t tell me you were just grave robbery and accidentally dug a bit too deep, unearthing these soul stones…”
The more Qian Renxue thought about it, the funnier she found it.
Hearing Ling Mo’s outrageous explanation, she actually found him more outrageous than the soul stone.
Who would dig such a deep pit for no reason! That was just overeating and getting bloated.
“Haha, actually! I just got lucky; no way around it, when you’re as handsome as me, even luck gets better. I’m helpless too…”
When Ling Mo got shameless, it completely refreshed Qian Renxue’s understanding.
Of course, he said this just to cover up the secret of the Three Lives Bronze Coffin.
The Three Lives Bronze Coffin involved too much karma; it was better not to let her know.
“Get lost! Shameless all day long. But anyway, aren’t you planning to give a few pieces to your wife?”
Qian Renxue smiled meaningfully and didn’t dwell on how Ling Mo dug these things up.
“Give, of course! As long as you need it, I’ll give myself to you…”
Ling Mo naturally wouldn’t refuse; he had plenty more soul stones on him, more than he could use.
“Forget it, I can’t handle that! If I took you, I bet a lot of little sisters would cry to death.”
Qian Renxue snapped angrily, then ruthlessly extorted a batch from Ling Mo, feeling very satisfied inside.
The soul stones extorted from Ling Mo were enough to support her cultivation to Limit Douluo level.
After absorbing these soul stones, she would go take the godhood assessment!
To become the first person on the continent in recent years to become a god!
Her pursuit wasn’t to be a vase for people to admire, but to become the supreme god.
“So, that energy fluctuation in your Back Mountain was actually from these soul stones? And those elemental powers…”
Putting away the soul stones, Qian Renxue continued to ask; she still had many doubts.
“The Back Mountain! Actually, I just used these soul stones combined with various elemental stones to make a training ground, also called a trial ground.
The trial ground’s cultivation intensity is suitable for all attribute soul masters, capable of tapping into the elemental power latent in the human body.”
“Trial ground, elemental stone?”
Qian Renxue felt her imagination wasn’t big enough; it sounded a bit outrageous, and she couldn’t understand it at all.
“Here, these are them…”
With that, Ling Mo took out a pile of elemental stones. He hadn’t taken them out at first because Qian Renxue couldn’t use them.
But since she was curious, Ling Mo showed them to her.
“My god! Soul stones were already outrageous enough, and you even have elemental stones.
If elemental soul masters use this, their cultivation would be much faster than with these soul stones!”
Qian Renxue was speechless; she had just said Ling Mo had everything, and sure enough, he really did.
What exactly did he not have? Qian Renxue was lost; she was understanding the man before her less and less.
This man she loved in her heart.
“You’re right! Elemental soul masters using these elemental stones can not only refine their own elemental power, but cultivation is also twice the result with half the effort…”
Ling Mo had prepared a pile of ice elemental stones, planning to send them to Shui Bing’er and Xue Wu, but hadn’t found the time.
He planned to find a time to send them over and cultivate some emotion along the way.
It had been a while since he last saw Xue Wu dance, and Ling Mo was a bit infatuated with her dance posture.
