Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 266: Chapter 164: Tier Two Body Cultivator, 800-Year Lifespan, Comparable to Peng Zu

The number of spirit stones reached four hundred thousand.

The reason for acquiring so many was partly due to what was obtained from the Lingxi Secret Realm and from the remaining members of the Wu Family; these two groups left him a large amount of spirit stones.

In a sense, this was all thanks to fortuitous encounters.

If he had relied on talisman making, who knows how much time it would have taken to earn so many spirit stones.

”Indeed, relying on hard labor won’t make you rich.”

”Even being a highly skilled worker only allows you to barely make ends meet.”

Jiang Fan also thought of Golden Core Zhenren Daoist Fei Lian, who despite already being a Golden Core Zhenren, still wanted to seize Yunlai City. It was evident that such a powerful force brought enormous benefits to a Golden Core Zhenren.

Earning money alone doesn’t compare to having a group of people earn money for you.

Of course, if he truly wanted to spend, even four hundred thousand spirit stones wouldn’t last long.

To a Golden Core Zhenren, taking out a million spirit stones should be quite easy.

His wealth falls far short.

Unfortunately, due to the instability, Yunlai City, which should have been resource-rich, has now become scarce, making it harder than ever to buy Foundation Establishment resources.

And who knows when Yunlai City will restore its former peace.

Another day passed.

Jiang Fan consolidated his cultivation and started wandering around Yunlai City.

The rebellion that occurred seven or eight days ago greatly harmed Yunlai City.

Though it had been quelled, who knows when a second one might occur.

As long as Yunlai City does not have a Golden Core Zhenren guarding it, chaos will continue to arise.

Some loose cultivators, frightened by the recent rebellion, fled Yunlai City.

This has left the city quite empty.

At least it is not as lively as before.

At this time, his spiritual sense lightly swept over some taverns where many loose cultivators were chatting.

Various words immediately rushed into the depths of his consciousness.

”Sigh, why did those bastards from the Wu Family betray our Yunlai City? Now they got no benefits, and instead, the entire family was exterminated. They were a Foundation Establishment Clan, gone just like that. It’s really a pity.”

”Haha, this is the Cultivation Realm, what does a Foundation Establishment Clan count for? Over the years, so many Foundation Establishment Clans have perished, the Wu Family was just one ordinary clan among them.”

”I wonder when the City Lord will be able to escape and return? If the City Lord comes back, Yunlai City surely won’t experience further turmoil and will regain its former prosperity.”

”Stop dreaming. The City Lord is now in a life-threatening situation, the chances of returning alive are very low. We should consider how to plan our own escape route.”

”I’ve heard many loose cultivators have already fled Yunlai City and gone to other markets. Is this true? Do you think we should also leave Yunlai City and this place of trouble?”

Many loose cultivators were discussing intensely, worried about the current situation of Yunlai City, fearing that if things continue like this, they might also die in the chaos.

Instead of struggling to survive when chaos erupts, it might be better to run away now, far from trouble.

They have no thoughts of coexisting and perishing with Yunlai City.

To them, this is just an ordinary cultivator city.

”Haha, leaving Yunlai City?”

”Don’t think it’s safe outside now.”

”You don’t know, but many cultivators who left recently have died.”

A cultivator sneered, revealing shocking news.

”What do you mean? All dead?”

”What exactly happened?”

Many loose cultivators were astonished. They thought Yunlai City was chaotic and thus tempted to leave.

But who could have imagined that outside Yunlai City seemed to be even more dangerous?

They were eager to know what happened.

”It’s said that a group of demon cultivators has appeared outside Yunlai City.”

”They are hunting loose cultivators.”

”Many loose cultivators planning to leave were very unlucky and encountered this group of demon cultivators.”

”The result was life-threatening, only a few cultivators returned alive.”

”Most cultivators have already died.”

”I estimate that this news will soon spread throughout Yunlai City.”

The cultivator said faintly.

”Demon cultivators? When did another group of demon cultivators come to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range?”

”Damn, the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range has become increasingly chaotic recently.”

”No choice, demon cultivators thrive in such chaotic environments, they thrive in chaos.”

”Exactly, this time the emergence of the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion has attracted too many forces. It’s easy to understand why demon cultivators are interested in the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.”

”No way, if that’s the case, where in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range is safe?”

Numerous cultivators discussed back and forth.

They never expected to find traces of demon cultivators in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

Honestly, demon cultivators are even more terrifying than tribulation cultivators.

Tribulation cultivators at most kill and loot treasures.

But demon cultivators are different; their methods are cruel and vicious. They not only seize your belongings but also harvest your soul and refine your physique.

Every cultivator who falls into the hands of demon cultivators finds life worse than death.

So demon cultivators are universally detested.

Surrounded by various forces, they almost disappeared in this region.

But even so, demon cultivators are impossible to kill off completely.

If you’re slightly inattentive, they will reignite their flames.
