Chapter 119 A Spirit Stone Mine Appeared in Fusheng City?
In a small wine stall in Fusheng City, a few burly men were drunk.
“Everyone listen to me. Two days ago, when I went to the sect master’s study, guess what I saw?”
“This can be considered a shocking secret.”
The one who was talking was the servant of the Golden Door Sect, Zhou Zheng.
At this moment, he was toasting and chatting with his scoundrel friends.
“Enough, enough. What big secret can the Golden Door Sect have? I have a piece of information that can be considered an earth-shattering secret!”
Zhou Zheng’s words were interrupted by a burly man beside him. Then, that burly man continued to speak to the other two people.
“It’s said that the mayor’s mansion’s daughter, Zi Yue, recently obtained a high-grade spirit stone!”
“She even gave that spirit stone to the mayor.”
Another burly man held a wine cup in his hand and said while shaking his head.
“Previously, didn’t the Hundred Treasures House also auction off a high-grade spirit stone?”
“The one you said that was given to the mayor, could it be the one being auctioned off?”
The burly man who had spoken earlier had his head resting on his arm as he shook his head.
“No, no. Didn’t the Hundred Treasures House’s previous auction request was in exchange for the Fang family’s two marketplaces?”
“The next day, the patriarch of the Fang family died, but the mayor’s mansion didn’t get the two marketplaces, so it couldn’t have been the one from the Hundred Treasures House.”
Actually, the spirit stone that the Hundred Treasures House had auctioned previously had been given to the Jiang Mansion the day after Jiang Ping had stood in front of the Fang Mansion, and Jiang Ping had casually accepted it.
However, those who had the strength to fight for the Fang family’s two marketplaces didn’t make a move to fight for it. Since the Golden Door Sect and the mayor’s mansion were old friends, they didn’t participate too.
And now, each of them had a high-grade spirit stone in their hands, so they wouldn’t destroy the relationship between the two families for the sake of the spirit stone at the Hundred Treasures House.
As long as these two great Buddhas didn’t make a move, the other small factions naturally didn’t dare to make a move either.
It wasn’t until not long ago that the Hundred Treasures House announced that the spirit stone had been auctioned off, and it had been auctioned off in a way that the owner was satisfied with.
When Zhou Zheng heard his two friends’ words, he instantly sobered up.
Three high-grade spirit stones had suddenly appeared in Fusheng City, which was enough to shock people.

Then, the burly man said that the mayor’s mansion had an additional spirit stone continued to speak.
“Right now, the city is in an uproar because of this high-grade spirit stone. Some people say that there is a spirit stone mine under the jurisdiction of Fusheng City.” “Which led to the frequent appearance of high-grade spirit stones in Fusheng City recently.”
Zhou Zheng rubbed his chin with his fingers.
Spirit stone mine? This made sense. Otherwise, there was no way to explain the fact that three high-grade spirit stones had appeared in Fusheng City, which was considered a very poor place in the cultivation world.
“By the way, Brother Zhou, what secret did you want to talk about just now?”
Zhou Zheng came back to his senses from his thoughts. When he heard that the burly man who was about to pass out from getting drunk asked him, he hurriedly picked up his wine and played dumb.
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Come, let’s drink.”
The next day, Zhou Zheng informed the Golden Door Sect that he was going back to his hometown.
Then, he packed his luggage and went to an immortal mansion called Giant Dragon Mountain
Inside Giant Dragon Mountain, there was a sect.
At the entrance of the sect, there were three big words written on the plaque, Tianyuan Sect.
Tianyuan Sect was considered a first-rate sect within a thousand miles of Fusheng City. Unlike other sects, there were no elder seats in the sect.
The backbone of the sect was mostly itinerant cultivators. Voluntary itinerant cultivators either had a request from Tianyuan Sect, or they had a weakness that they were forced to work for the sect. Therefore, they volunteered to be the guest elders in Tianyuan Sect.
Itinerant cultivators were guest elders, so Tianyuan Sect had no shortage of people to use, and they did not feel sorry for them if they were used.
Those itinerant cultivators who were forced to work for Tianyuan Sect were pushed to the front line like cannon fodder. They died unjustly, but they did not dare to say anything bad about Tianyuan Sect even before they died. Tianyuan Sect’s sect master, Liu Fang, had relied on this method to slowly rise from a sect that was not even considered a third-rate force to a position that was admired by tens of thousands of people.
Zhou Zheng had come here this time to look for an old senior whom he had met by chance many years ago. At that time, Zhou Zheng was still in his teens and did not know martial arts. He had never cultivated before. It was because of that old senior who had taught him the cultivation method that he had the core building realm cultivation today.
Although his cultivation was not considered high, it had at least allowed Zhou Zheng to grow up from a farm boy in the village to someone that was still relatively well off.
Zhou Zheng’s cultivation was at the core building realm, so he couldn’t fly. He could only run all the way to the Giant Dragon Mountain.
When he arrived at Tianyuan Sect, the guards at the gate stopped him.
“Tianyuan Sect doesn’t allow strangers to enter.”
Zhou Zheng smiled and said.
“I’m here to find Xu Shi, Senior Xu. I’ll have to trouble you to be accommodating.” “Or you can inform him. Just tell him a kid surnamed Zhou from Fusheng City from back then has something important to discuss with him.”
The guard at the door didn’t immediately turn around to inform Zhou Zheng. Instead, he made a money gesture by rubbing his index finger and thumb.
Zhou Zheng had also been in the Golden Door Sect for quite some time. When he saw this gesture, he immediately understood.
He took out three low-grade spirit stones from his pocket and handed them to the guard.
After the guard took them, he felt a little disgusted, as if he felt that they were too little. However, looking at this person before him, three low-grade spirit stones should be all he could take out.
Then, he coldly said to Zhou Zheng.
“Wait here, I’ll go and inform him.”
Seeing the guard leave, Zhou Zheng couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.
Those three spirit stones were already worth more than half a year’s worth of his savings, yet this person still felt that it was too little. The people from large sects were really snobbish.
The person, Xu Shi, that Zhou Zheng had mentioned was also one of the guest elders in Tianyuan Sect, and he was also one of those who were forced. Because Xu Shi had accidentally offended a certain big shot in the sect in his early years, his entire family had been taken to the sect and was under house arrest.
In order to protect the lives of his entire family, Xu Shi could only run to Tianyuan Sect, where everyone wanted to beat them up. He became a bandit and helped the vicious sect to do evil.
The guard ran to the room where Xu Shi was and passed on Zhou Zheng’s message. Then, he directly turned around and left.
Xu Shi sat on the stool, his fingers stroking his beard.
Kid Zhou? He seemed to have some impression of him. Back in Fusheng City, he had taught him some cultivation methods.
However, after he had taught him the cultivation method, he could tell that the highest realm that Zhou Zheng could reach in his life was only the core building realm. The furthest he could go was the late-stage core building realm.
Therefore, he didn’t pay too much attention to this person. After teaching him the cultivation method, he left hastily. Meanwhile, Zhou Zheng only knew that Xu Shi was a guest elder in Tianyuan Sect. Xu Shi didn’t feel much emotion in his heart, but he was curious. What exactly was Zhou Zheng’s urgent matter?
Therefore, Xu Shi decided to visit Zhou Zheng. If Zhou Zheng’s urgent matter was because he encountered trouble and wanted to ask him for help, then he would directly send him away.
After all, a nobody in the core building realm wasn’t worth his effort.
