Chapter 2235: Chapter 2237: The Void Continues

Du Wentian originally wanted to use this opportunity to befriend the two Golden Core cultivators, but upon hearing Feng Jun’s requirements for safety, he decided it was better to be cautious.

So he went to Mei Yeyu and said, I have a job for you, are you interested?

Upon hearing this, Mei Yeyu nearly slashed at him with his sword—You want this sword cultivator to dig a pit for you?

Since Mei didn’t appreciate the offer, Du Wentian didn’t bother explaining, and he turned to look for Master Wang from Guanquan Valley.

Master Wang didn’t mind doing this type of grunt work, but he also had his demands.

Firstly, he wished to meet Feng Jun in person, as he hoped to receive clear authorization given the work involved digging at White Pebble Beach.

Secondly, the two thousand Spirit Stones were not of much interest to him; all he wanted was to purchase two deduction indicators at base price.

After all, even though he had a bit of an air about real cultivators, doing grunt work just for two thousand Spirit Stones wasn’t very dignified, but if it were for deduction indicators, there would be no issue, and with two indicators at base price, he could easily earn the two thousand by reselling them.

Seeing that these demands were not excessive, Du Wentian promptly went to consult with Mountain Master Feng.

After listening, Feng Jun said, "The first point is no problem, the second... I don’t sell indicators, it’s two thousand Spirit Stones."

Selling deduction indicators at base price allows him to earn without spending Spirit Stones; in essence, it’s a good trade. It doesn’t matter who gets the deduction, right?

However, Feng Jun really didn’t want to bother with it now, because given his skills, he could easily earn money anywhere. The point was to free up more time for cultivation, so the fewer deductions, the better.

Simply put, he intended to scale down deduction services; the indicators would only become more valuable in the future—it’s not even about Spirit Stones, two thousand Spirit Stones are nothing, but his time is invaluable.

Just as Du Wentian was about to leave with this feedback, Qu Jianlei spoke, "What’s this... someone’s trying to set conditions for Mountain Master Feng?"

Du Wentian had to briefly explain the situation, "...it’s just a bit of grunt and tiring work."

"Leave it to me," said Qu Jianlei readily, "Two thousand Spirit Stones; if someone’s earning it, it might as well be me."

Feng Jun’s brow furrowed slightly; he was somewhat reluctant to let the Crimson Phoenix Sect handle it.

"Master Qu, if Mountain Master Feng wanted you to handle it, he would already have done so," a clear voice cut in.

Then Yan Yuxi walked in with a smile, "In the end, it’s because your Crimson Phoenix name is too prominent for such dirty and tough work, but my Yan family doesn’t mind... Mountain Master Feng, can we handle this?"

Feng Jun nodded, "Then I’ll leave it to you. I hope it can be completed within three days... for specific details, consult Du Wentian."

Yan Yuxi had come to discuss the progress on Shijie Island, but hearing the three-day limit, she turned and left with Du Wentian.

She was a bit curious: What is Feng Jun planning to do?

In fact, she wasn’t the only curious one; whatever Feng Jun did attracted a lot of attention, not to mention such a large-scale excavation.

Especially the three True Immortals, who wished they could directly project their Divine Sense into the estate to hear exactly what was being discussed.

Subsequently, they received a notification from White Pebble Beach: currently, there are no cultivators sensing the embrace of the elixir. Those not entering the embrace elixir process within three days must stop cultivating, or face the consequences.

This notice was somewhat abrupt and lacked explanation, but nonetheless, it provided everyone with a three-day buffer period, which wasn’t particularly disrespectful.

In fact, everyone was speculating on what Feng Jun had encountered; how he disappeared for two months, only to return with such a commotion.

Even True Immortal Jiu Wei came to ask Feng Jun if he needed any help.

The other two True Immortals didn’t come; True Immortal Hua Sheng wasn’t on familiar enough terms, and Chao Cheng from Taixu, temporarily replacing Wu Xiu—who was at Master Yuan’s Nascent Soul formation celebration—was even less acquainted with Feng Jun.

Feng Jun happened to have arrangements for him, "Rest for a few days; soon I will initiate a ceremony, and I need you to keep guard."

It’s quite something to task a mere Initial Golden Core Stage with utilising a True Immortal so effortlessly.

Jiu Wei still wanted to inquire further, but Feng Jun waved him off, "Elder Qing Ji is aware of this; you can ask her later."

That afternoon, Yan Yuxi invited another cultivator, Master Qiu, who had previously protected her, to start digging.

This shows that a family with a lasting legacy must have its own ways. Yan Yuxi, known as the first beauty of Pine Cypress Peak in a century, was ready to roll up her sleeves and dig soon after embracing the elixir. The Yan family truly knows how to manage things.

Even if she was only responsible for "turning stone to mud," while Master Qiu dug the pit, her participation alone already surpassed many clan disciples. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Someone greeted with Divine Sense, hoping to assist, including disciples from the Gongyang Family and Dantai Family, but she simply refused.

Two female Masters spent just a day and a half to dig such a large pit.

Early on the third day, Feng Jun circled the pit and began arranging various materials.

Countless Divine Senses explored the area, wanting to know what he was doing.

Feng Jun coughed lightly and released his Divine Sense, speaking solemnly, "Ladies and gentlemen, as guests coming from afar to my White Pebble Beach, I hope you’ll restrain yourselves a bit. Otherwise, don’t blame me for sending you off... Respect is mutual, wouldn’t you all agree?"

As soon as these words were spoken, numerous Divine Senses retreated, but whether someone was secretly watching, Feng Jun couldn’t be sure.

Nevertheless, his words scared away most people, which was enough; he didn’t expect such a big commotion to go unnoticed. The key was not to let anyone act too brazenly—at least to have enough respect for him as the host.

He arranged materials until noon, suddenly had a bit of a whim, stopped to think, and the image of Yi Jue suddenly popped into his mind.

"Did this guy’s celestial warning successfully cultivate?" Feng Jun took out his mobile phone, swiped at it twice, and suddenly disappeared.

In the next moment, he arrived at Geng Zi Yuan, and sure enough, Yi Jue stood at the door waiting for him, accompanied by another person, who was Jing Quan True Immortal.

Seeing him arrive, Yi Jue spoke with a bit of displeasure, "I told you, I’m just coming back to report the situation and then leaving. You wouldn’t have come without my warning?"

"I thought you would at least rest for a while, after all, you’ve been working hard for so long," Feng Jun replied indifferently, "You know, the Kunhao Realm is not suitable for True Immortal’s rest... Have you mastered your warning technique?"

Yi Jue had just finished resting; she had to come back earlier to deliver the corpse of the Tunxing Clan, and then rest for a few days to recover. Now her complaints are somewhat similar to a child crying out, simply wanting the attention of adults.

Seeing Feng Jun no longer mentioning rest, she naturally wouldn’t bring it up again, only stating flatly, "The warning is quite simple. If you just understand one point, you’ll realize... It’s hard not to be discovered by others, but it’s really easy to be discovered!"

"Alright," Feng Jun nodded, then looked at Jing Quan True Immortal, "Jing Quan True Immortal is here... Any guidance?"

"Want to know the situation with Moli... Of course, Elder Yi Jue already mentioned part of it," Jing Quan glanced at Yi Jue, "She told me Moli has some dangers. I wonder if that’s the case?"

"The Void naturally has dangers; this time we encountered the Void Herder and the Space-Cracking Devouring Bee," Feng Jun replied casually, "When we’re there, we can protect him... Although when leaving, we placed him in a safe place, it doesn’t mean completely safe."

Jing Quan True Immortal hesitated and spoke up, "Then, could you trouble yourself to send me in as well?"

"That’s impossible," Feng Jun shook his head, answering sternly, "If you’re worried about him, I can bring him out."

"Why is it impossible?" Jing Quan True Immortal’s eyebrows rose, "If it’s because of Spirit Stones, I’m willing to offer them."

"Because I don’t have time," Feng Jun answered very directly, "My time is already fragmented by various matters, and a cultivator’s primary task is cultivation."

His confident response left Jing Quan True Immortal quite speechless; since when could a Golden Core talk to a Nascent Soul like this? Even though he understood, it left him dumbfounded.

Eventually, he just smiled, "Alright, I also wanted to inquire about one more thing: is the improved version of Binding Qi into Gang very effective in the Void?"

Feng Jun glanced at Yi Jue, "Immortal Yi Jue is from the Taixu Sect, you can trust her."

"I’ve obtained the improved version of Binding Qi into Gang," Jing Quan replied seriously. For him, helping the sect test an uncertain technique is very straightforward, "I plan to cultivate it. If you go to Kunhao, can you count me in?"

He came to Yi Jue to learn about cultivating Binding Qi into Gang and what to watch out for, while the dialogue with Feng Jun was a spur-of-the-moment addition—asking whether entering the Void would be possible was merely an offhand probe.

Feng Jun thought about it; actually, the fact that he obtained the Tunxing Clan corpse is something Moli witnessed, trying to hide it is impossible, so he nodded, "Alright, but Kunhao isn’t very friendly to True Immortals, and... When you want to return, I might not have time to send you back."

His impression of Jing Quan has always been good, but today, the request to enter the Void surprised him somewhat—don’t you know that this request is a bit excessive?

However, what he didn’t know was that currently, on a big stone in the Void, a distant Kun practitioner had already stepped out of the defensive formation.

She was wrapped tightly from head to toe with various protective gear, looking as if she was wearing a spacesuit.

Another Kun practitioner controlled the Thick Earth Cauldron and defensive formation with her hands and feet, "Senior Sister, make it quick, grabbing some small pebbles is enough... Safety first..."

After Feng Jun and others left, they finally convinced Moli and borrowed numerous precious treasure-level protective gear from the Masters, starting their exploration of the Void.

Actually, Moli himself felt stimulated; there’s no choice, watching others search for treasures right in front of him every day while he can’t participate—that feeling is really only understood fully by those involved.

"Feng Jun did not prohibit me from searching for treasures here, but both of you should also be cautious and rotate promptly..."
