“I’m rich, I’m so rich!”

It was rare to see Duan Feng show such fervor.

Even during the previous night’s battle, with him darting back and forth on the battlefield, he wasn’t this excited.

Luo Chen seated himself next to him with a wearied expression on his face for the first time.

On the surface, the victory from last night seemed effortless. Alone, Luo Chen achieved immense success.

But in reality, the consumption he experienced was tremendous.

After all, he had used the Fire Tip Spear, Four Symbols Tripod, Soul Breaking Nail, Jade Sword, and even detonated the Jade Marrow Waste Bead.

All of these were methods that consumed a vast amount of Spirit Power.

Fortunately, Luo Chen was endowed with a strong foundation, his Spirit Power several times stronger than his peers of the same Order, and he had already achieved half of the Spirit Power’s refinement.

In addition, he consumed Elixirs throughout the battle.

!!..

Otherwise, he would have collapsed long ago.

The most taxing part for him was the final battle with Gao Tingyuan where he forcefully deployed the Ming God’s Divine Cleanse.

That kind of pain, while bearable when prepared in advance, was unbearable during battle; he could still feel a faint ache in his Divine Soul now.

“Luo Chen, are you okay?” Duan Feng noted his exhaustion.

Luo Chen mustered up his energy and looked at the pile of Magic Tools and the Storage Bags nearby.

This was a big fortune!

A fortune enough for any Qi Refinement Cultivator to safely cultivate until the Foundation Establishment stage.

In fact, even after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, this wealth could sustain the Cultivation for a long time.

Only if one were extremely audacious, could they take this fortune and flee, change their identity and cultivate until Foundation Establishment somewhere else.

Regrettably, Luo Chen couldn’t do that.

It wasn’t because he lacked the audacity.

It was because where else could he go?

Behind him was the savage mountain, filled with countless Demon Beasts.

And in front of him stretched the thousands of miles of Yu Ding Realm, which in theory is under the control of the Yu Ding Sword Sect.

And Miao Wen was a member of the Yu Ding Sword Sect.

Also taking into account the words and promises Miao Wen had given him the previous night, Luo Chen had no intention of fleeing.

Staying here was far better than fleeing elsewhere and becoming a lone Rogue Cultivator.

Here, he was familiar with the rules, knew many friends, and now had the backing of genuine allies.

As long as he handled the next steps properly, he could thrive here.

Especially when one knew how uncomfortable a life on the run could be, a look at Dan Xiu would be enough.

One’s hands were tied in doing anything, and there was always the worry of being chased and hunted.

“Luo Chen?”

Duan Feng’s voice reached Luo Chen’s ears again, and he shook his head vigorously to clear his mind.

“First collect all Ascendant Grade Magic Tools and Storage Bags.”

“The rest will be allocated by Murong Qinglian and Zhou Yuanli later.”

“Also, set aside some resources. I have a great use for them.”

Having finished, he slowly stood up and staggered back to his stone cabin.

With the Array activated, he collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.

Duan Feng stood outside, worrying for him.

Not long after, Murong Qinglian and others came in.

They looked at the blue Array, with their feelings fluctuating.

Luo Chen’s sleep was deep and long.

Without any dreams or nightmares, he managed to sleep soundly.

He didn’t have to worry about being attacked as he was guarded by his friends outside and had the alarm of the array.

In this way, a day and half a night flew by.

When Luo Chen woke up, he felt refreshed, full of energy, and ready to shout to the sky.

Feeling the vigorous life force within him, Luo Chen subconsciously performed the Inner View.

Before he noticed his physical condition, Luo Chen realized that his thinking was faster.

“Did my Divine Soul Endowment increase? Or did my will become stronger?” Whether it was the Divine Soul or his will, they were both intangible, at least at the Qi Refinement stage.

Luo Chen couldn’t discern the details right away.

Having thoroughly checked his body, he found that not only had his Spirit

Power been restored, but it had also become more refined.

Luo Chen opened his eyes in satisfaction.

He took out two Storage Bags, one from Gao Tingyuan and the other from Dan Xiu.

The latter was personally delivered by Zhou Yuanli later. This one now belonged to Luo Chen personally.

Unfortunately, the seven Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators he blasted to death didn’t leave behind any inheritance.

In such a violent explosion, the primary Storage Bags couldn’t maintain stability.

Once the Array on the surface was broken, the items inside would be rolled into another space, with only a few potentially remaining in the world.

He first opened Dan Xiu’s Storage Bag.

There wasn’t much inside, some bottles and jars, a change of clothes, five

Medium Grade Spirit Stones, and a pair of black steel scissors.

“So poor indeed!”

“I guess most of his possessions were consumed during the period he was being hunted down!”

Luo Chen recognized some of the bottles and jars. Most of them were Healing Pills, like the Moon Laurel Pills.

There were also two bottles of Cultivation Pills called Snow Soul Pills, which were highly beneficial for water and ice type Spirit Root cultivators.

Its specific selling price was similar to Dusting Pills.

It wasn’t produced by the Medicine King Sect, but by a local clan in the Xuelian District.

Since he didn’t hold any expectations for Dan Xiu’s inheritance, Luo Chen directly opened Gao Tingyuan’s Storage Bag.

“I almost fell into a trap for this thing, it better not disappoint me.”

As soon as his Spirit Power entered, Luo Chen couldn’t help exclaiming.

Two cubic feet in volume!

As expected of Gao Tingyuan, he was indeed quite wealthy!

A large pile of things was carefully poured out by Luo Chen.

The first thing that caught his eye was a pile of standard-sized Spirit Stones.

“Twenty-five Medium Grade Spirit Stones, and three thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones!”

Over 5000 in wealth, befitting the status of a Ninth Level Qi Refinement Cultivator..
