Dagang town
In this one night, Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi had planned to break through to the next stage in cultivation.
The number of spiritual stones used by Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi was the same. But their bodies both needed different resources to increase cultivation. However, Lin Yan was confident that with the sum of 250 spiritual stones, he and Huan Caiyi would be able to break through the next stage. It was caused by both of them having been on the verge of breaking through as well. Otherwise, it might both take around 1,000 spiritual stones to break through.
While absorbing the spiritual stone that was before him, Lin Yan sensed that his Spiritual Root was slowly being strengthened. Now he realized that spiritual stones were very important to the Xiantian level. If he continued to use spiritual stones, his Spiritual Root would definitely have an extremely powerful innate element. Also, when absorbing the qi in that spiritual stone, he sensed that the qi was strengthening his Meridians as well.
“If I have a lot of spiritual stones, the chances of my cultivation at the Xiantian level will be quite overwhelming. When breaking through the Spirit Realm, it was certain that the elemental power I could muster was extremely powerful.” Inner Lin Yan. But it was only for her who had a unique body, and not for others because the requirements of using spiritual stones were extremely strict.
If a cultivator were to constantly use spiritual stones to increase his cultivation, it was certain that the foundation of the body would seem very messy. Of course the body must adapt in increasing strength so that the foundation is not damaged. That was why Lin Yan's grandfather and grandmother had always emphasized not to be too hasty in breaking through cultivation.
But, after something in Lin Yan's body seemed to have awakened, it was no longer a problem for Lin Yan as his body instinctively consumed every bit of energy that entered his body. It looked like Lin Yan's body looked specifically to devour certain energies and use them to strengthen his body as well as his cultivation.
If other cultivators found out about Lin Yan's body, it was certain that Lin Yan would be made the subject of an experiment to search for the secrets of such a body.
Time continued to pass, and without Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi noticing, the day had already started to light up.
In front of Lin Yan was seen only a few spiritual stones left and the others had turned into stones that looked like thin shells. It was certain that it would turn into ash when touched.
Around Lin Yan's body, it appeared that qi continued to surround him, not long after, that qi slowly spun around and re-entered into Lin Yan's body.
When that happened, Lin Yan opened his eyes and raised the corner of his lips. He had just broken through to the second Xiantian level in just one night.
“As expected, I have broken through the next stage.” Lin Yan muttered and noticed Huan Caiyi who was still cultivating. Just by looking at the number of spiritual stones before Huan Caiyi, Lin Yan knew that his brother would need about another hour to finish.
Lin Yan let the current Huan Caiyi and took out the Rank A mission they were on.
While rereading the details of the mission, Lin Yan knew that with their current strength, it would be difficult to complete the mission. Because, normally, only the disciples of the seventh stage Xiantian level and above took class A missions.
Due to the mission grace period not being mentioned, it made Lin Yan finally take on the mission. And also, the name of where the mission was carried out made Lin Yan interested.
Because of this, the closest city to the mission location, Zhu city, finally issued a mission to investigate the Dragon Valley.
In a few years, the mission had not been completed at all and no one knew what the true secret of the Dragon Valley was.
Strange sounds were often heard from the Dragon Valley and it was like a roar of a Dragon that made its name like that.
Initially, the mission was categorized as a Class B mission. But, because until now no one has completed the mission, finally the mission difficulty level is raised to Class A missions. Even the Zhu clan who were in Zhu city wanted to raise the difficulty level of the mission to become a Class S mission for many strong cultivators to try to solve the problem. The Zhu clan could no longer bear the grievances of the residents in Zhu city as many people disappeared as they approached the Dragon Valley.
“This is indeed a dangerous mission. When taking on this mission, I knew that we had to increase our cultivation first. With 4,500 spiritual stones remaining, I will at least reach the fourth stage Xiantian level and big brother reach the sixth stage Xiantian level, even if spiritual stones are sufficient. And to make resources able to raise our cultivation to that level, there is only one way, which is to blackmail Long Gu who today will compensate us.” Lin Yan smirked at the thought he looked like a child who always liked to rob. But the world of cultivators was a cruel place, he did not need to think about the situation of others who would suffer losses. Lin Yan was also not at will to snatch away whatever he saw, but he did this to the people who were trying to provoke him.
An hour later, Huan Caiyi finished cultivating. As expected, Huan Caiyi had reached the fourth stage Xiantian level.
After that, the two went straight to the business center of Dagang city to meet Long Gu asking for compensation as well as looking for something interesting.

On the other side of the Coming city, Zhu Bo who had lost an arm this time always put on an angry face. The other two members of his clan did not dare to speak anymore because they did not want to be affected.
“Damn it! The boy will receive the consequences!” Zhu Bo had already placed an enormous grudge against Lin Yan and Huan Caiyi.
“There is only one way to clean them!” Zhu Bo stared at the two members of his clan and gave the order in a very cold tone, “Hire a member of the Red Scorpion group! Pay them a high price to clean up those two kids!”
Both of them were shocked to hear Zhu Bo's order. They would not have thought that Zhu Bo would hire the Red Scorpion group.
The Red Scorpion Group was a collection of high-level cultivators unrelated to any organization or clan. The group accepts missions as hitmen with a 60% success percentage%. The higher the pay, the higher the percentage of mission success.
This time, Zhu Bo hired the members of the group at a very high price. It was certain that the Red Scorpion group would send their powerful members to complete the mission.
Lin Yan, who had been watching Zhu Bo from the beginning at the Star Restaurant, knew something like this would happen. But he had already made preparations, and this time, he would try to blackmail the Zhu clan for trying to provoke it.
