Chapter 48 Doubtful Clouds 

Chapter 48 Doubtful Clouds 

After he left, he secretly notified Huang Kai and Luo Pinghu, but he didn't explicitly tell Zhou Tao, who was more ambitious. He just passed the sovereignty of the Alchemist Society to Zhou Tao.

The other party was naturally overjoyed. Having had this idea for a long time, he immediately hooked up with Zhao Shang.

The man surnamed Zhao was also one who valued money over his life. He had worked in the Ice Snow Tower for many years, and the Spirit Stones he had embezzled were far more than thirty thousand. However, his daily Cultivation and relationship management cost much more Spirit Stones than someone like Wang Yu who was independent of expensive cultivation resources.

Gathering and saving enough capital to buy an Upper-Grade Foundation Establishment Pill, thirty thousand was still not enough.

These two greedy people will sooner or later bring disaster upon themselves.

To withdraw in time and stay away from the Mountain Gate is also Wang Yu's way to avoid misfortune.

Back to the main topic.

After setting up this Illusion Array, Wang Yu moved into the dilapidated Stone House left by predecessors. The Corpse of the Bone Lion had some value. The longest Bone Spur on its back was a High Grade Ingredient for refining Magic Artifacts.

It was worth at least two hundred Spirit Stones. The Corpse was ordinary, but as a Peak First Tier, even as Blood Offering for raising Demonic Creatures, it was worth more than a hundred.

Killing two of them could be exchanged for a Superior Cold Blood Pill.

This was quite difficult income to obtain within the Sect. If one really wanted to earn Cultivation Resources, they still had to Leave the Sect.

Of course, this was also related to Mysterious Bone Mountain being a relatively "fertile" Resource point.

All three Mysterious Bone Mountains have Second Rank Yin Veins.

Yin Veins are also a type of Spirit Vein, but the Spirit Qi they emit is more inclined towards the Yin Attribute. They are often formed only in places where there has been excessive death.

Logically speaking, it would be more reasonable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators to be stationed in such places. Moreover, the previous round of stationed Cultivators at Mysterious Bone Mountain should theoretically have cleared out Mysterious Bone Mountain once.

It took them three months to get here, but this place was quickly occupied again by Bone Lions and Corrosive Poison Bee Swarms. This was a point of doubt.

Therefore, even though Wang Yu could easily kill Bone Lions, he did not take it lightly at all. He prepared to advance slowly, guarding against any subtle changes.

After all, there were still more than four months until the Flowering Period!

Due to differences in collection time and growth environment, the Flowering Period of Bone Wood varies. Every year, a portion of Bone Wood will Flower.

Four months was enough for him to conquer the Second Level for his own use.

Thus.

One month later.

"Ice Coffin Spell · Cold Wind Comes!"

Having cultivated the Spell to Perfection, in addition to its Power, Wang Yu could also make subtle modifications on the original basis.

Just like now.

The Ice Coffin Spell, which should have shaped six Ice Crystals and closed them to form a coffin of restraint, was slightly deformed by Wang Yu. The six Ice walls surrounded a group of Corrosive Poison Bee Swarms.

The Ice Crystals vibrated continuously, and countless Ice shards shot out from the Ice walls, accompanied by bursts of icy wind. The Bee Swarm, which was originally very troublesome, was almost entirely turned into ice lumps and shattered on the ground after this attack.

Their corrosive poison had no effect on Spell Spirit Power!

A big trouble was easily solved.

Wang Yu could not achieve this change when fighting Xu Jiao Jiao. This was a change made after experiencing many battles and adapting to local conditions. This is called Combat Arts Experience.

Rewriting a troublesome battle into a sweeping victory.

Combat Arts skills are also a crucial part of a Cultivator's Power. Wang Yu is becoming more and more adapted, but others are suffering unspeakably.

Especially Gu Zhengshun's Heavenly Corpse Peak disciples.

The Bronze Armored Corpses they controlled had Corpse Energy condensed into mountain-ridged bronze armor, covering the surface of the Armored Corpse. This seemed to be due to the Natural Corpse Armor of the Armored Corpse, but in fact, disciples with Wealth

would buy some Mysterious Iron and have the Armored Corpse refine it, fusing it with the Natural Corpse Armor to further enhance its defense.

This was originally a means to strengthen the Armored Corpse, but after encountering the Corrosive Poison Bee Swarm, they suffered instead. Not only did their defense greatly decrease, but the armor made of Corpse Energy was also destroyed along with it.

A month had passed, and they had only conquered three Bone Woods where Second Rank Profound Essence Flowers grew. The efficiency was extremely slow, which was also related to their low Cultivation Level.

Twenty people, the lowest at Qi Condensation Third Layer, and the highest only at Qi Condensation Sixth Layer, the same realm as Gu Zhengshun, it was difficult to generate efficiency.

Wang Yu, on the other hand, had already conquered the Second Level, with nine Second Rank Bone Woods with Flower Buds. He was currently preparing for the Third Level. With his ability, patrolling the Third Level Territory every day was enough.

In the following years, basically every year different Bone Woods would grow Flower Buds. Just guarding them would bring harvest!

On this day, during daily Cultivation.

Gu Zhengshun, however, sat on a coffin lid and flew directly to Wang Yu's Level. He saw the Second Level environment without any Bee Swarms or Bone Lions and was somewhat envious. He shouted from afar.

"Junior Brother Wang, Brother Gu has come to visit."

As the Blood Mist Bewildering Array revealed a path, Gu Zhengshun walked in without hesitation. In front of the Stone House, he saw Wang Yu standing figure and directly stated his purpose.

"We are in trouble."

Wang Yu was also a little surprised when he heard this.

"What do you mean by this?"

"It's Liu Jinxian."

Among the three Mysterious Bone Mountain Mountain Lords, Liu Jinxian's Power was the strongest.

She also had the largest number of subordinates. In a month, she had cleaned up her Mysterious Bone Mountain. Her nearly three hundred subordinates had nothing to do and had set their sights on Gu Zhengshun's place.

"At first, she just sent a letter, hoping to capture the Corrosive Poison Bee Swarms on our Mysterious Bone Mountain alive and hand them over to her. I declined on the grounds of insufficient manpower."

"Now she wants to let her subordinates help me clean up this Mysterious Bone Mountain. If she takes over, the Territory we have occupied will belong to them..."

Wang Yu frowned. This situation was almost predictable and not surprising. The problem lay with Gu Zhengshun.

"And then? Didn't you prepare any Contingency Plan to balance the other two Mountain Lords? Did you come here just to change places to be someone else's prey?"

Gu Zhengshun immediately explained with an embarrassed expression:

"The Gu Family was once a Foundation Establishment family, but since the Old Ancestor fell, it has declined into a Qi Condensation family. Brother Gu was able to worship a Foundation Establishment Steward of the Heavenly Corpse Peak Inner Sect as his teacher because my master owed the Old Ancestor a Favor."

"The Gu Family's Foundation is far inferior to the Liu Family. If she insists on being forceful, I can only rely on you."

"Rely on me?"

Wang Yu couldn't help but sneer, narrowing his eyes and sizing up Gu Zhengshun, saying, "Wang is just an ordinary Qi Condensation Stage Fifth Layer. Brother Gu is counting on me as a Trump Card. You've made a wrong calculation."

"If Liu Jinxian is really so forceful, Wang might as well raise the white flag. Just surrender, what's the big deal."

Gu Zhengshun said bitterly.

"If Junior Brother Wang insists on this, Brother Gu has nothing to say, alas... let it be."

Watching the figure of the other party Leave, Wang Yu's face was uncertain.

Cooperating with this person was mainly due to chance encounter. In addition, Gu Zhengshun's Power was not high, and he was confident that he could suppress him. Therefore, he exchanged the Mountain Lord Token, which could also conveniently hide himself.

He originally thought that he had a Core Formation Grandmaster grandfather, so he should have some Skill, but who knew he was just a paper tiger.

But this situation didn't seem right. Giving up so easily was not the Style of a Demonic Cultivator.

"Unless... Gu Zhengshun came to Mysterious Bone Mountain not for the Profound Essence Flower."

Wang Yu muttered to himself, and began to think about every step the other party had taken since arriving at Mysterious Bone Mountain.

Inspection, Formation Array deployment, burying Corpses, slowly conquering.

These were all fine, steady and solid!
