Redstone Forest

'This place is so shitty, even their spirit formation so weak'

After coming to the manor, Feiyan looked around feeling very dissatisfied with their spirit formation.

'Sigh, well, it's just a bronze city'

Finally, she finished placing the concealing formations around the manor to minimize the shock wave of her breakthrough if she will achieve it. Ordering her puppets to alert her if someone goes near, she then closes her eyes and cultivated with the resources she needed right beside her.

At the same time, Huang Fu was preparing to go outside the city to gather more materials for creating puppets. Outside his shop, Fuling was curiously looking at his shop since he never once saw him leave his shop.

"Young master, where are you going?"

"I'm just gonna gather some materials outside the city since I can only find wood in here, do you have any place to recommend?"

Even though he can use his skills to see where to go, it's still more convenient to ask someone who lived here for a long time.

"There's a place called redstone forest a hundred kilometers from here, in the middle of that forest is a volcano and there's also an abandoned mine out there were you can find all kinds of materials"

Fuling thought for a while before saying this. But still added more after some hesitation.

"But... young master must be careful, the mines were abandoned because of the strong spirit beasts inhabiting the place, rumors say that the strongest there is at nascent soul"

"Okay, thank you for the information"

Huang Fu smiled as he said this, after closing his shop, he started his small trip to the redstone forest.

'Considering his background, a nascent soul shouldn't be a problem'

Fuling sighed and went back to his sect.

Within the redstone forest, a group of youths are leisurely walking and killing spirit beasts to gather their beast cores. When spirit beasts stronger than what they can manage approaches, an old man beside them casually waves his sword to kill it.

"Young master Fan Tong, you are indeed worthy of being prince"

"With your Foundation establishment cultivation, you don't even need our help"

Two cunning looking disciples are fawning a young man at the front with the most expensive clothing among all of them, the only thing in common among the three of them are the "Dou" written on their robes.

Beside them, was an elegant young woman with her own attendants with the word "Chen" on their robes.

Fan Tong didn't react and kept on moving forward, but a smirk flashed by his face before vanishing then glanced at the woman by his side before swiftly facing forward.

"Young mistress Lijuan Yue, do we really need to accompany them?"

An attendant by the side whispered to the young woman in front of her.

"We need to, it's to show them that we are sincere to have an alliance with them"

Lijuan Yue answered after sighing for a brief moment, despite not wanting to go along, it's still important. While walking, Lijuan Yue saw a young man that's around their age just going in the forest. To ease her curiosity, she asked him.

"Are you lost? It's dangerous here"

"It's fine, I can protect myself"

Huang Fu smiled to her before moving towards the abandoned mines.

'How rude, I just wanted to help him'

Lijuan Yue frowned before ignoring the rude person she just met, her attendants also followed her lead.

A few minutes later of going to the mines, Huang Fu encountered a lion with flaming fur as large as a small mountain emanating an aura of nascent soul. He wasn't afraid since he could easily kill it but still felt surprised of how different the animals here are from his previous life.

After he saw the group from before acquiring a glowing stone inside of the spirit beasts, he didn't completely annihilate the lion using space explosion, instead he killed it in a more "normal" way.

In just a few seconds, he was examining a red glowing stone that was much larger than the other group.

'I also don't have any use for this'

Frowning for a bit, just like the spirit stones from the last time, he placed it inside his spatial ring then continued his way.

What he didn't notice was that while he was holding the beast core, Fan Tong was behind him looking at it with eyes widened, Fan Tong looked behind him to see that the whole group was busy killing spirit beasts except the old man.

The old man and Fan Tong looked at each other with knowing glances.
