The cheating boy plays around in the world of immortal cultivation

Yuan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he could only rely on himself this time.

After ruling out the possibility of external assistance, Yuan Xiao’s mind became clear and he felt relaxed at the moment.

After the battle with the Black Moon Sect’s foundation-building elder and the Lihen Patriarch last night, Yuan Xiao had already found the opportunity to advance to the 9th level of Qi Refining. In addition, with his clear mind at the moment, his belief that everything depended on himself rose spontaneously, and there was no suspense about his promotion to the 9th level.

Yuan Xiao told the old Taoist Hai that he would practice for a while, turned around and walked into the last room of the thatched cottage at the back and began to practice. Yuan Xiao took out a few pieces of medium-grade spirit stones and began to absorb and comprehend them, mainly comprehending the battle between him and the Lihen Patriarch last night.

Yuan Xiao found more and more that every upgrade in the later period basically required comprehension, especially combat comprehension.

After each battle, the bottleneck of Yuan Xiao’s cultivation upgrade would loosen, so Yuan Xiao was a cultivator who became stronger with each battle, that is, the more battles he participated in, the faster his cultivation progressed!

After an incense stick, Yuanxiao successfully rushed to the 9th level of Qi Refining, and he didn't stop. Yuanxiao continued to take out more than a dozen medium-grade spirit stones, and didn't stop until he reached the top of the 9th level of Qi Refining.

Yuanxiao felt full of strength. This was not the foundation-building stage yet, just the 9th level of Qi Refining! If he reached the 10th level of Qi Refining or even the foundation-building stage, what would he feel like then? Yuanxiao was looking forward to it.

Pushing the door open and walking out, Hai Laodao was there holding a large bowl and drinking tea. This way of drinking tea is probably rare in the entire cultivation world. Too casual!

Suddenly Hai Laodao choked on a mouthful of tea, put down the large bowl and began to cough violently, pointing at Yuanxiao and unable to speak for a while!

"What's wrong, Brother Hai?" Yuanxiao asked in confusion.

"You just reached the 9th level of Qi Refining in just a moment?" Hai Laodao finally breathed smoothly.

"I've always been like this. In the last few times of cultivation, whenever I felt the opportunity to upgrade, it would basically take only one stick of incense to complete it. Does it take others a long time to break through?" Yuan Xiao was also confused. He had not seen what it was like for others to break through the barriers.

"Don't say this when you go out, be careful of being beaten up! Who doesn't spend one or two days or even ten days or half a month to break through the barriers? You just came out to stroll around in this stick of incense. You are going to anger others to death! Do you think everyone who practices is as perverted as you?" Hai Laodao laughed angrily.

"Okay, Brother Hai, I know. In the future, I will only say this to the enemy, just to anger them to death!" Yuan Xiao said frivolously.

Hai Laodao just pretended not to hear it. He thought: Fortunately, I am your brother, not your enemy, otherwise I would really be angry to death by you!

"Brother Hai, I heard that there are multiple array eyes in the mountain protection array. Each array eye needs to be guarded by a cultivator, who is responsible for protecting the array eye and replenishing the spirit stones of the array eye at any time. Is the consumption of spirit stones very high?" Yuan Xiao asked.

"Once the mountain protection formation is activated, it will need to consume spirit stones continuously. If no one comes to attack or the attacker is weak, you can just replenish the lower-grade spirit stones at the formation center, but you need to update it frequently." Hai Laodao said.

"If someone is attacking the formation, especially if it is attacked by a strong person, the lower-grade spirit stones will not be able to keep up with the replenishment of spiritual energy, so you need middle-grade spirit stones with higher spiritual energy reserves and faster supply speed to be safe."

"How many formation centers are there in each layer of the mountain protection formation? What kind of cultivation is required to host it?" Yuan Xiao asked.

"Our Yunhaimen mountain protection formation has 9 formation centers on each layer. If the outer layer is breached, just move to the 9 formation centers in the middle layer to defend. It is best to have a foundation-building cultivator at each formation center, and at least a cultivator above the 9th level of Qi Refining can barely cope with it." Hai Laodao said.

"Does our mountain gate lack middle-grade spirit stones? If not, I have a lot of middle-grade spirit stones here, so just donate them to the mountain gate to defend the formation center!" Yuan Xiao suggested.

"What? You want to donate middle-grade spirit stones to the mountain gate for defense?" Hai Laodao was shocked. He looked at Yuanxiao's face and confirmed that he was serious.

So Hai Laodao continued: "We, Yunhaimen, have been mining here for nearly a hundred years. There is no shortage of low-grade spirit stones. But the spirit stone mines here are all low-grade spirit stone mines, so middle-grade spirit stones have always been in short supply."

"Don't mention the Qi-refining disciples, even the foundation-building elders and our three Jindan are also short of middle-grade spirit stones. Although the sect has a little reserve of middle-grade spirit stones, if they are used in the eye of the mountain protection formation, they will be used up quickly. Shortage, extreme shortage!"

"How about this? I will donate one or two thousand middle-grade spirit stones to the sect first, and use them in the eye of the mountain protection formation. Brother Hai, see if it is feasible?" Yuanxiao originally wanted to say three or four thousand, but seeing that Brother Hai seemed to be shocked by him a little too much today, he simply said half less.

"How much? One or two thousand? Medium-grade spiritual stones?" Brother Hai couldn't hold the big bowl in his hand anymore, and it slipped silently from his hand, spilling tea all over Old Daoist Hai, but Old Daoist Hai still didn't notice it.

Old Daoist Hai grabbed Yuan Xiao's sleeve and said, "Do you really have it?"

Yuan Xiao was also confused, so he had to nod his head, thinking: Is Brother Hai crazy again?

Old Daoist Hai slapped Yuan Xiao on the shoulder and said, "Don't talk about donating, listen to Big Brother, just say it's a loan to Yunhai Sect. Because the mountain protection formation does need medium-grade spiritual stones, I won't stop you from lending it to the mountain gate."

"But it must be a loan, so that even if the sect doesn't return it to you for hundreds of years, it will owe you a big favor. Besides, the mountain gate has frequent personnel changes, and maybe Senior Brother Hai Qinghai will not be the sect master one day. Then you can take it or not, how great it is!"

Yuan Xiao felt warm in his heart. Brother Hai was so thoughtful. He actually considered himself. So he smiled and said, "I will listen to Brother Hai. I will say that I lent it to Yunhai Sect. If a troublemaker comes to the sect to become the leader one day, we brothers will ask him to return the spirit stones!"

"In this way, I will ask the elder elder Wu Sheng to call all the foundation-building elders of the mountain gate to announce this matter to them in the evening. Then you will come out and hand over the medium-grade spirit stones in person. I will prepare an IOU for each of them to sign as a witness. In this way, your position in the mountain gate will be stable in the future. If the big creditor is not stable, who will be stable!" said Hai Laodao.

"Okay, then I will go to the thatched cottage to practice for a while and stabilize my cultivation!" After saying that, Yuan Xiao returned to the thatched cottage.

Yuan Xiao was not doing this to stabilize his cultivation, but to pick out a low-grade spirit stone ore with a size of one and a half feet from the several spirit stones obtained from the Wumeng Mountain Spirit Stone Mine last night. It was estimated that more than two thousand spirit stones could be cut out. Then he took out the Apocalypse Pearl from his Dantian and threw them into the storage ring for purification and upgrading.

Before dark, the purification was completed, and a whole piece of medium-grade spirit stone ore was obtained.

In the evening, all the foundation-building elders of the mountain gate arrived, even Mo Fei, who had just replaced the fourth elder.

The great elder Wu Sheng and Hai Laodao, as the Jindan cultivators and hosts, sat at one end of the long wooden table and took out an IOU prepared in advance.

The other elders were all confused. What was this for?
