At this time, the corner of Shi Ling's mouth slightly raised and his eyes began to close. At the same time, the speed at which he refined the Wishing Spirit Bead also began to increase, causing him to be drawn towards the spirit energy underground to increase.

In the outside world, Qiu Rann and the girls saw that the plants around them were withering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what was happening.

Not long after, the people at the scene suddenly felt a powerful aura being released from the cave. They all turned around to look at the cave and heard Qiu Rann say, "It seems that someone has broken through."

However, just at that time, a sound of rustling suddenly came from a nearby bush. At the same time, Qiu Rann and everyone else turned around to look at the source of the sound and yelled, "Who is it?!"

"..."

Shi Ling, who was inside the cave, suddenly opened his eyes wide as he felt the sudden burst of power. It made him want to yell at the sky. At the same time, he could feel his physical strength also rapidly rising.

"The strength of six raging bulls, seven raging bulls, and eight raging bulls …"

Very quickly, Shi Ling's physical strength increased to the strength of ten raging bulls before it finally stopped. At this time, Shi Ling withdrew his mana and the flames surrounding the two of them returned to Shi Ling's Heart Ring.

At this time, Shi Ling felt the power spreading out from his Magic Source, and could not help but slightly raise the corner of his mouth and mutter: "Small success in the Body Tempering realm!"

Saying that, Shi Ling looked towards Yeling. Seeing her body slowly falling down without the support of Shi Ling's mana, Shi Ling received Yeling and then let her lie in his arms.

When he felt the condition of her body, his injuries were more or less healed, and even her injured dantian had recovered. Not only was his own cultivation not destroyed, it had even risen to the peak of the Body Tempering realm and he could break through to the perfection-stage of the Body Tempering at any moment.

Yeling woke up in Shi Ling's arms not long after. When she saw herself in Shi Ling's arms, her face first blushed, then she pushed Shi Ling away forcefully and ran outside.

When Shi Ling saw this, his mouth opened, but he didn't know what to say. He could only smile, stood up, and walked out together.

The red light shield that Bai Xiaosheng had set up disappeared after Shi Ling's breakthrough. Therefore, when Yeling and Shi Ling walked out, they weren't obstructed at all.

However, when Yeling and Shi Ling walked out, they heard a loud shout, "Bastard, let go of me, do you know who I am? When I get out of here, see how I'll deal with you guys. "

When Shi Ling heard this, his brows twitched because he had already recognized the owner of the voice. As he looked over, he saw that Gongsun Jie was pressed down to the ground by Qiu Rann and the other girls, unable to move at all.

When the girls saw Yeling walk out, they immediately ran over happily and said, "Senior Sister, you're fine!"

Yeling replied with a smile. Afterwards, the group of girls gathered together again. At this moment, a girl looked at Yeling's pretty face and curiously asked, "Senior sister, why is your face so red? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Upon hearing this, Yeling pouted coquettishly and said, "No way, can you not speak nonsense?"

The girl's big eyes blinked at Yeling's shy face and asked curiously, "That's not it. Your face is obviously very red."

However, at this moment, Yeling glared at them, scaring the girl into not daring to say anything further. Shi Ling, who was not far away and saw this scene, shook his head with a bitter smile. Then, Gongsun Jie, who was pressed down on the ground after walking over to Qiu Rann, immediately rejoiced upon seeing Liu Tie and said, "Hey, Liu Tie, hurry up and make them let go of me."

Shi Ling waved his hand towards Qiu Rann and the others. At this time, Qiu Rann released him and Gongsun Jie stood up. He patted his body and said: "Really, is there something you can't say? Only when you have to make a move will you be happy. "

Shi Ling frowned and asked, "Why would Brother Gongsun come here?"

At this moment, Gongsun Jie sighed and said, "Oh, stop talking. Look over there."

As he said that, he pointed to a spot not far away. Shi Ling looked over and saw more than a dozen people standing there timidly, not daring to come close. All of them were either slightly injured or severely.

When Shi Ling saw this, he said, "They were brought here by you?"

Gongsun Jie took off his clothes and brushed off the dust on them as he said, "I saw it on the road, and I originally didn't want to care about them, but since my conscience was against me, I decided to save them. However, I didn't have enough medicinal plants on me, so I just searched around, and when I saw that all the plants here had mysteriously withered, I felt a little weird. I just walked over to see what had happened and got caught by your people."

When Shi Ling heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Actually, I gave them a death order. No matter who it is, as long as they get close, they will be killed. It's normal for them to act against you after bringing so many people with you."

When Gongsun Jie heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He immediately asked: "Why did you give such an order?"

Shi Ling shook his head. "It's a long story." After saying that, he paused for a moment and looked at the injured soldiers. Then, he turned his eyes towards Gongsun Jie and said, "But then again, Brother Gongsun, which faction are these people you brought?"

Gongsun Jie snorted and said, "What faction? They are all ordinary disciples."

When Shi Ling heard this, he nodded his head and said to Qiu Rann and the rest, "Everyone, take out a healing pill and give it to Senior Gongsun."

When the group of people heard this, they couldn't help but open their mouths wide in dissatisfaction. Although they had all replenished themselves in the temple before, they couldn't just give them to anyone, could they? Then who can eat well?

Shi Ling seemed to have seen through their worries, and immediately said to Gongsun Jie who was beside him, "This is Brother Gongsun Jie, the son of Medicine Refinery Hall Master hall master, he is a very outstanding alchemist."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay. If it was an alchemist, then they wouldn't be at a disadvantage if they gave him a healing pill, because if they let an alchemist owe them a favor right now, they might be able to obtain higher level pills in the future. After weighing the pros and cons, someone quickly took out a healing pill from their Heart Ring and gave it to Gongsun Jie.

When Gongsun Jie saw so many healing pills, he was instantly overjoyed. At this moment, he saw Shi Ling waving to the severely injured people in the distance, gesturing for them to come over.

At first, there was shock and uncertainty on their faces, but they quickly walked back over. Immediately, they heard Shi Ling say to them, "These healing pills were obtained by my brothers risking their lives. Now, they are willing to give a portion of it to you."

However, Shi Ling's words changed the situation and he said, "However, we can't give you the thing for nothing. After you use our healing pills to recover from your injuries, you will have to join our team."

The people on Qiu Rann's side didn't have any objections, after all, they were all ordinary disciples and had no enmity with each other. If Shi Ling really wanted to swallow them into his own camp, they could also increase their own strength.

They looked at Shi Ling and the rest, and discovered that each of them had quite a strong aura about them, especially the few girls in the distance, who also had the aura of an expert at the peak of the Body Tempering. If they could join such a team, they would definitely receive a great amount of protection.

Immediately, someone nodded in agreement. At this time, Shi Ling looked at Gongsun Jie and said: "Senior Brother Gongsun, I think you're here as well, right? Of course, I know about the rules of alchemists, and never go against people, but, in this Occult Realm, if you don't go and cause trouble for others, other people will come and cause trouble for you, right? Moreover, there are Jade Plate of Promotion s on your body, if they meet someone who knows you, that's fine, but what happens if they don't? But if you come to us, firstly, if you need any herbs, we have a lot of people here to help you find them, secondly, between people, we can also take care of you, and at that time, if you meet with any trouble and you are the only one who can stand alone and helpless, wouldn't that be a tragedy? "

When Gongsun Jie heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He didn't expect that he would accidentally step on Shi Ling's thief ship. Now, those seriously injured disciples didn't manage to save him and instead, threw him in.

Then, he nodded at Shi Ling and said, "Kid, you have a good mouth. Well, I don't want to be alone and wander around anymore, so I originally wanted to join a random team. However, since I'm here and we know each other, I'll stay with you."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ling was overjoyed. He immediately cupped his hands towards Gongsun Jie and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Gongsun, for your praise."

Gongsun Jie waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing. However, he quickly changed the topic and asked Shi Ling: "Oh right, when are you going to pay the medical fees that you owed me?"

Shi Ling couldn't help but open his eyes as he said in his heart, "You old miser, you're still thinking about money even at a time like this?"

However, he still said: "I'll return it to you once I return to the Spirit Sword Sect."

Gongsun Jie nodded.

After that, the group of people started to rest on the spot, and the seriously injured people quickly recovered with the help of the healing pills that Shi Ling and the others gave them. Currently, Shi Ling's group had expanded further, reaching a total of thirty-two people, of which seven or eight were at the Body Tempering realm.

It was not an exaggeration to say that with Shi Ling's current team strength, he could still fight against the hundreds of people that Zhang Yuquan brought.

In the following time, Shi Ling led everyone to start digging and searching for treasures. The various talents and earthly treasures within the Occult Realm were not to be trifled with. There were a lot of them, and as everyone fought against the various Demonic Beast s together, they even imperceptibly increased their teamwork.

After three days, everyone was full of money. They were all ecstatic. Even Gongsun Jie, a big money grubber, could not hide his smile of excitement. He thought to himself that joining this team of Shi Ling was a very wise choice.

However, this kind of bountiful harvest was broken three days later. On the evening of the fourth day, a light fell from the sky and landed on a mountain peak. Immediately, the mountain peak became like a mountain of gold.

After Shi Ling saw that scene, he said to everyone: "The gate to the central zone is about to open!"

After saying that, he brought everyone else and rushed in that direction.
