Chapter 1223: The Result Is Like This

"You actually knew the result would be like this; there was no need to risk your life." Chen Yu sighed slightly: "By forcing the chess game and triggering the second level of the Death Tribulation, I must have injured you the moment I broke the game, right?"

"My fundamental Dao Heart is damaged; I fear my Cultivation will stop here, unable to advance even half a step further," Qingxu sighed slightly and said.

"Why must you be like this, Senior?" Chen Yu said: "Actually, you know that no matter what, the result is the same."

"Even knowing the result is the same, I still wanted to try," Daoist Qingxu smiled and said: "After all, this concerns the future of the Yi Jian Pavilion; it cannot be taken lightly. But now I am relieved, because you, sir, are indeed the Heavenly Chosen One."

"Then what does Senior plan to do next?" Chen Yu asked.

"Everything will be as Mr. Chen says," Daoist Qingxu said: "I only hope that you, sir, will not resort to force. I will go and lobby the Seven Sects and Nine Gates. Our Yi Jian Pavilion has some prestige in Shu over these years, so I believe I can resolve this matter."

"If it can be resolved, that is for the best. With Senior Qingxu stepping in, I will have much less trouble. Furthermore, make it clear: as long as they submit and we form an alliance, with the Seven Star Sect and Yi Jian Pavilion at the lead, there will be many preferential treatments here."

"What preferential treatments does Mr. Chen have?" Qingxu's expression flickered slightly, not quite understanding the meaning behind Chen Yu's words.

"Providing what everyone needs," Chen Yu smiled: "For example, Spirit Stones."

"Spirit Stones?" Qingxu's expression changed slightly. In truth, as Spiritual Energy has been exhausted over these years, Spirit Stones are scarce.

Yet, people in the world of Dharma Cultivators cannot do without these things, so in recent years, Spirit Stones have become hard currency in the Cultivation World.

But there are quite a few Dharma Cultivators in the Seven Sects and Nine Gates; can Chen Yu really provide so many Spirit Stones all at once?

"I have them in all grades." Chen Yu casually took out a few Spirit Stones.

Qingxu's eyes lit up. He took the Spirit Stones and saw that their grade was not low at all; judging by their appearance, they were already Mid-grade.

One could see Spiritual Light forming patterns on the surface, circulating endlessly within, making one feel reluctant to put them down.

"It really is a Spirit Stone. Can Mr. Chen provide them in large quantities?" Qingxu asked.

"I wouldn't dare say large quantities, but at least I can satisfy the needs of the Seven Sects and Nine Gates," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "I can guarantee at least that much."

Qingxu's hand trembled. Chen Yu was not joking, but the amount of Spirit Stones required by the Seven Sects and Nine Gates was not small.

This item is beneficial for cultivation, and it is indispensable for refining Dharma treasures and Spirit Tools, so many sects are extremely lacking in them.

By general usage standards, it would take at least one small Spirit Mine to supply them. Chen Yu was being so generous—could it be that he owns a mine?

What Qingxu did not know was that Chen Yu truly did own a mine, located right there in S Jing.

Moreover, the mineral deposits there could be considered a large mine. Chen Yu could now be called the wealthiest person in the world of Dharma Cultivators.

Because the Spirit Mine he controls is something the entire world of Dharma Cultivators has never possessed.

There is no help for it; when a person's luck is good, they can even pick up money while walking.

"Is what Mr. Chen says true?" Qingxu still found it hard to believe; he looked at Chen Yu with a doubtful expression.

"Of course it is true." Chen Yu pointed his right hand, and nearly a thousand fist-sized Mid-grade and Lower Grade Spirit Stones, piled up in his Space Bracelet, appeared before them.

Qingxu stood up with a start. He looked at the pile of Spirit Stones in shock, unable to speak for a moment.

Of these nearly a thousand Spirit Stones, the worst were Lower Grade, yet some small sects, even if they exhausted the entire strength of their sect and emptied out their ancestral assets, might not be able to produce a few.

Yet Chen Yu produced over a thousand in one go. If Chen Yu were to say he didn't have a Spirit Mine, it would be unbelievable.

Even though Qingxu had profound Cultivation and had seen great storms and waves, seeing all this before him now made his hands tremble.

What shocked him even more was that Chen Yu could take out so many with a wave of his hand; he must have a storage treasure similar to Mustard Seed Sumeru on his person.

What kind of heaven-defying luck is this? To actually let the Heavens favor one person alone?

After a long while, the old man suppressed his wildly beating heart. He steadied himself and said: "Mr. Chen, with these Spirit Stones, you won't need to resort to force. The people of the Seven Sects and Nine Gates will surely rush to attach themselves to you."

"It is not attaching themselves to me," Chen Yu stood up and smiled: "But rather everyone uniting to face the recovery of Spiritual Energy in the coming decades."

"I believe Senior is also aware that with the arrival of a new round of Spiritual Energy recovery, this world will usher in a transformation. By then, old monsters who have been lying dormant, or even people from another realm, may come to our world to plunder."

"If everyone does not unite, then in the future, we will surely be swallowed by the tides of history."

"I understand. I will explain it well to everyone." Qingxu nodded slightly.

They stayed for lunch and ate a meal here. The food at Yi Jian Pavilion was nothing more than vegetarian fare; the taste was average, but Zhou Meng ate it with great relish.

"Does this count as having eaten a meal at an Immortal's home?" Zhou Meng asked.

"I suppose so." Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "If you like it, you can stay here for a few more days."

"I'd like to, but I spoke with my parents today. They are very worried about me, so I have to go back," Zhou Meng said.

"Very well. I will have the people of Yi Jian Pavilion send you back. Once I finish the matters at hand, I will come to find you," Chen Yu said: "Your disposition is good. Although you are not suited for cultivation, I can teach you my Medicine skills."

"You have a Senior Brother who also studies Medicine, though he is a bit older and his seniority is a bit higher. But it doesn't matter; just call him Senior Brother," Chen Yu said.

"Who is it? Is this Senior Brother very famous?" Zhou Meng was slightly taken aback.

Someone who could be introduced so seriously by Chen Yu was definitely no ordinary person.

"Luo Huichun." Chen Yu uttered the three words.

"The Guardian of Medicine God Mountain, Luo Huichun?" Zhou Meng was startled: "Are you serious?"

"Of course I am serious." Chen Yu smiled slightly.

This time it was Zhou Meng's turn to be dumbfounded. Luo Huichun—that famous school of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Even though she studied Western Medicine, she had heard her mentor mention the great name of Luo Huichun. She never expected that this time, she would become Luo Huichun's Junior Sister.

"Ah, ah, is it really him? My mentor admires him very much," Zhou Meng's face turned red with excitement.

"Alright, I will give instructions to the people here. If you want to stay, stay for a few days; if not, then have them send you back," Chen Yu said.
