That night.
After a frenzied cultivation session with He Yingyu, Chen Dengming launched the Array Plate again, instructing the Mini Array Spirit to dance, eager to experience the augmented Spiritual Energy of the Three-level Spiritual Veins.
...
One day later.
Chen Dengming changed cultivation spots within the spacious cave dwelling four times, fully exploiting the effect of the second-tier Soul Snatching Array Disk and the advantage of the large-scale geographical layout of the cave dwelling.
In merely one day, he accumulated 182 points of proficiency in “Longevity Spring Skill.”
Continuing at this astonishing rate, he would only need 862 days to breakthrough to the Golden Core Stage, multiplying the speed of his cultivation several times.
“If I cultivate in this manner, in less than three years, I can breakthrough to the Golden Core…
Indeed, a workman must first sharpen his tools.
After becoming a Longevity Seed, breaking through to Golden Core will be much easier with various resources at my disposal.”
Walking in the garden outside his cave dwelling and watching He Yingyu busy planting flowers and plants moved from the old dwelling, Chen Dengming felt quite uplifted.
Before this, who would dare to think of reaching the Golden Core stage in less than three years?
Firstly, opportunities for stable cultivation are hard to come by, as he has duties to perform.
However, being a Longevity Seed now, he enjoys the privilege of only performing duties once every five years, and when the time comes, he can ask for leave or request to change his duty assignment.
Secondly, the richness of the Spiritual Energy in the second-level Spirit Vein and the size of the cave dwelling can also limit his cultivation speed.
The Soul Snatching effect of the second-tier Soul Snatching Array is very strong, covering a wider range.
But his previous cave dwelling was only so large.
Therefore, Chen Dengming often had to move to areas near the cave dwelling for cultivation after half a day’s practice when the Spiritual Energy inside the dwelling was exhausted.
And the spiritual energy outside the dwelling isn’t as rich as it is inside, so his cultivation speed can’t increase much.
However, this geographical issue was resolved once the cave dwelling switched to a larger size.
The territory is large enough, the spiritual energy plentiful enough.
Once one area is exhausted, simply switch to another.
After switching four times, the first area is restored, and a day’s cultivation is over.
“It can’t be exhausted.
Absolutely can’t be exhausted.”
For a moment, Chen Dengming’s cultivation enthusiasm skyrocketed.
He rediscovered the feeling of frenzied cultivation from his time in the Qi Cultivation Stage in the congregation place
He immediately returned to the cave dwelling, summoning Mini Array Spirit to continue practicing.
For a period of time afterwards, Chen Dengming, apart from occasionally going out to visit a few Golden Core Elders of the sect residing nearby when he felt cultivation was becoming tedious, spent most of his time on cultivation.
This crazy momentum also spurred on He Yingyu to dive in as well.
When they grew tired of cultivating alone, they cultivated together.
When they grew weary from cultivating together, they practiced alone.
They utilized seventy-two different methods, aiming to harmoniously progress together on the path to the Golden Core.
They were totally devoted to the Dao of Golden Core and blocked out all external matters.
Such ardent focus on closed-door cultivation somewhat dampened the lively atmosphere on the increasingly intense battlefield in the East and West Territories as Chen Baimao, a formidable cultivator who could slay Golden Cores in reverse, was missing.
However, the Daoist Qiao Zhaoxian of the Heavenly Dao Sect, by virtue of his formidable Golden Core strength, moved freely on the battlefield.
After ruthlessly slaying an old monster at the Golden Core level in the Western Region, he gracefully escaped from an attack by two Golden Core cultivators.
Qiao Escape’s fame surged for a moment, eclipsing all other cultivators.
…
In a blink of an eye, a year and a half passed.
The war situation in the East and West Territories deteriorated and gradually roped in many sects from the North and South Territories.
Small-scale invasions and counterattacks even started to break out at the borders of the North and South Territories.
With the Thousands of Miles Frontier and the Bright Cloud Mountain Range as the battlefields, the cultivators from the North and South Territories fought fiercely.
The skies darkened and the ground was soaked with blood.
Both sides’ Golden Core Cultivators intervened from time to time.
The borderlands, usually bereft of Golden Core cultivators, were temporarily bustling with activity.
Luo Family Mountain.
In Luo Mountain City, more magnificent and robust than a year ago.
Black Wind and Jiang Qiang were currently in conversation with a group of haughty cultivators from a large sect.
“Brother Fan Dao, it’s not that we don’t want to move, but Luo Mountain City is our hard-earned property of many years.
The spirit veins, every plant and tree, are the fruits of our hard work…”
“Hmm?”
The man in the green robe who sat at the head of the table coldly huffed, his spine as straight as a spear, exuding a captivating aura, as if a heavy load could not crush him.
He glared at Black Wind.
“Black Wind friend, this is already our third time discussing this with you.
You know what they say about third time’s a charm.
It’s wartime, and Fengxing Sect has given us, the Hanji Sect, the jurisdiction over this warfront.
We are within our rights to requisition this area and ask you all to leave without paying a penny.
Yet out of concern for your hardship, we’re willing to pay you five hundred top-grade spirit crystals for your relocation.
What we offer is very generous, yet you refuse us time and again?
Could it be that you genuinely wish to defy the will of the Fengxing Sect?”
Upon hearing this, Black Wind’s smile became quite awkward.
Jiang Qiang’s face looked even worse.
With a mere five hundred top-level spirit crystals, they wanted to occupy Luo Mountain City which now had two one-level spirit veins, and its market, which was akin to robbery.
Exclude the value of spirit veins, just the construction cost of the city, the value of the formation, and so on were absolutely worth five hundred top-grade spirit crystals.
Not to mention that Luo Mountain City and its market could yield at least five hundred top-grade spirit crystals as benefits every year, of which they would hand over three hundred top-grade spirit crystals to Chen Dengming.
This Hanji Sect was taking advantage of Fengxing Sect’s power, enticing them with a price of five hundred top-grade spirit crystals with the aim to drive them out of Luo Mountain City, which looked quite unpalatable.
“Senior.”
Jiang Qiang managed a smile and stepped forward to bow, saying, “We have consulted our elders about this matter.
To be blunt, Luo Mountain City is not our personal property.
We dare not decide on it rashly, so please…”
Before he could finish his words, the frosty glint in the eyes of the man in the green robe seemed capable of penetrating the human heart and focused on him.

Jiang Qiang instantly let out a groan, his face turning pale, his eyes dizzy.
Black Wind immediately stepped forward to shield Jiang Qiang, exuding a Qi-cultivator’s spiritual might, and said grimly, “Why must you, Climbing Daoist Friend, be so aggressive?”
“Aggressive?”
The man in the green robe coldly huffed, disdainfully staring at Jiang Qiang, “If I wanted to be aggressive, you guys would have been driven out the first time I came.
Now my patience has worn thin, and a mere Qi cultivator dares to negotiate terms with me?
Ridiculous.
I’ve already investigated your backgrounds, don’t you guys have a Qi cultivation ghost cultivator backing you up?
Call him out, I’d really like to see if he can disobey Fengxing Sect’s will by blocking a vehicle!”
“Absolutely outrageous!”
Jiang Qiang’s face blushed with humiliation.
He let out a low roar and suddenly puckered his mouth towards the direction of the ceiling of the hall.
“ZhÄ«!”
Several cultivators from the Hanji Sect were stunned, all look up at the ceiling of the hall in unison.
ZhÄ«?…..
What does this mean?
Suddenly, the temperature in the hall plummeted, and a cold wind blew intermittently.
A depressed and evil breath suddenly permeated and enveloped the whole hall.
“Such strong evil aura?”
The face of a Hanji Sect Qi cultivator drastically changed.
He attempted to stand up, but in the next moment, felt his whole body sinking into an ice cave, his bones chilling one by one, his neck erupting with cold air, as if under the gaze of a pair of malicious eyes.
If he was like this already, the others were even bluer in the face, their bodies rigidly standing on the spot, their vision turning black, their hearts almost ceasing to beat.
A strange sound mixed with laughter echoed in their ears, as if chasing a dog away.
“ZhÄ« zhÄ« zhÄ«…”
