I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 438: Chapter 317: Three Gold Cores_1

Initially, they assumed that setting up the Teleportation Array would be a dangerous task, but they finished effortlessly.

However, Chen Mobai and his team couldn’t leave right away.

They had to stay here until the troops from the Divine Wood Sect were transferred over.

Since it was a small Teleportation Array, it could only transport ten people at a time.

Moreover, most of the forces guarding the Spirit Stone Mine were sent to the frontlines, thus it wasn’t necessary for all of the Divine Wood Sect’s troops to be transferred at once.

Weng Chuanyou secretly implemented some secret technique or magic artifact, confirming that there were only two Foundation Establishment cultivators and thirty Qi Practitioners managing this large formation.

Using his Void Spirit Eye, Chen Mobai found that although he could barely penetrate through the defensive large formation outside the Spirit Stone Mine, he was unable to perceive the actual situation inside.

It can be said that the Divine Wood Sect, being recognized as a Major Sect of the Eastern Wilderness, indeed has profound resources.

What followed was quite simple.

Chu Zuoshu led the Divine Wood Sect’s army and surrounded Ji Dingjin’s force for seven days, handling them from close combat at the start to a siege later.

Ji Dingjin thought that his hardline strategy had inflicted pain to the Divine Wood Sect, but in reality, he was just unable to recognize the withdrawal of four Foundation Establishment cultivators and a hundred elite Qi Practitioners from the frontlines.

After Chen Mobai and his team joined forces with the Divine Wood Sect’s troops coming from the Teleportation Array, they directly led by Weng Chuanyou, a Rank-3 Array Master, and swiftly cracked the defense of the small Spirit Stone Mine.

Despite the fierce resistance from the cultivators of Mountain Shaker Peak, they were outnumbered and even with the support of the large formation, they were still quickly defeated by the Sacred Tree Divine Light in half a day.

Once the formation was broken, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators from Mountain Shaker Peak ordered all the cultivators to scatter, each carrying a storage bag and flee.

To prevent the raw Spirit Stones in the mine from being carried away, Chen Mobai and the others had to divide their forces to pursue everyone.

Luckily they had foreseen this, and the number of people they had teleported over was sufficient.

However, not everything went exactly as planned; two Qi Practitioners from Mountain Shaker Peak erupted with great power and managed to escape under the assault of six to seven people from the Divine Wood Sect.

According to feedback from the surviving Divine Wood Sect monks, these two Mountain Shaker Peak cultivators had attained the first level of Nine Ranges Law Body, and their physical strength surpassed theirs.

But these unexpected incidents did not hinder the overall victory of the Divine Wood Sect’s strategy.

Chen Mobai and seven other Foundation Establishment cultivators personally exterminated the two fleeing Foundation Establishment cultivators from Mountain Shaker Peak, yielding a haul of raw Spirit Stones worth over two hundred thousand within their storage bags.

This was the monthly yield of the Spirit Stone Mine, and besides them, by adding up the Spirit Stones present in all the Qi Practitioner disciples’ storage bags, they made an additional gain of fifty to sixty thousand Spirit Stones.

From this raid, they brought back a total of nearly three hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

“Such is the nature of small Spirit Stone Mines. After a little processing, the raw ores will become intermediate grade Spirit Stones,” Weng Chuanyou declared with a smile, holding a piece of the raw ore.

The Spirit Stone Mines in the Tianhe Realm are classified into micro, small, medium, and large.

The Rolling Thunder Mountain is a miniature Spirit Stone Mine and only produces lower-grade Spirit Stones, with a total yield of several million Spirit Stones.

The small mines’ core ore veins can actually produce intermediate grade Spirit Stone raw ores, producing over a million Spirit Stones annually, with a total yield of several tens of millions.

A medium mine is even more impressive, with upper-grade Spirit Stones in the core ore veins, and only four have been discovered all over the Eastern Wilderness.

Two belong to the Five Elements Sect, one belongs to the Snow-blowing Palace, and one to the Divine Wood Sect.

Of these, the Divine Wood Sect’s mine was taken from the Five Element Sects’ hands with help from Golden Cliff during a split in the clan.

Thus, half of the annual yield of Spirit Stones needs to be afforded to Golden Cliff.

Although the Mountain Shaker Peak does not have a medium mine, it has two small mines and three micro Spirit Stone Mines.

The Divine Wood Sect’s occupation now almost cut off half the source of the Spirit Stone for Mountain Shaker Peak.

So when Ji Dingjin heard the news brought back by the two escapees, his eyes turned red.

He immediately led all his surviving cultivators, ready to abandon the micro Spirit Stone Mine and recapture the small mine occupied by Chen Mobai’s team.

But Chu Zuoshu, who had already predicted this, immediately led his army to intercept.

Although Ji Dingjin was furious, he had not lost his sanity. After failed attempts to break through, he had to retreat back to the micro Spirit Stone Mine under the circumstances.

He was at his wits’ end.

His only hope now was the old ancestor of their sect.

Mountain Shaker Peak’s sect is located in a valley between two plateaus.

Apparently, the old ancestor of the sect had split the valley by shaking the mountains with a single fist, and hence the sect was named after this legend.

In the plateau on the left of Mountain Shaker Peak, a towering Golden Sun Spirit Tree stood erect with cloud-like branches and leaves, reaching into the clouds and covering most of the valley.

This was the area unveiled by the Immortality Sutra of the Divine Wood Sect’s Old Ancestor, Zhou Saintly Pure.

On the top of the plateau on the right, a thick black long spear stood on the mountain peak, and a young man in a golden robe stared coldly at Zhou Saintly Pure with his hands behind his back.

This person was naturally the Core Formation real person of Shake Mountain, Ji Zhenshi.
