C32 The Bamboo in Fear!

"There's actually a Spirit Stone in Chu Kuangwei's Storage Bag..."

Unlike Lin Cheng's wild joy, Zhu Ziqiao's pretty face... She muttered to herself, "There was a rumor that the Chu Family discovered a mine before the New Year. However, it has yet to be confirmed. Now, it seems that this rumor is absolutely true. Chu Family has a Spirit Stone Vein! "

"What?"

The joy on Lin Cheng's face suddenly turned into shock, "The Chu Family has a Spirit Stone Vein?"

Zhu Ziqiao said snappily, "Why are you so surprised? Even if the Chu Family has a Spirit Stone Vein, can you, a Body-refining Stage Junior Cultivating Warrior, steal it from them?"

Lin Cheng laughed and said, "Not now, but it doesn't mean that it won't happen in the future. The Spirit Stone was harder than metal, and it was extremely difficult to mine it. Unless the Chu Family had a cultivator, otherwise, they would want to mine it. Perhaps, after I break through to the Core Sea Stage... They're only mining a little bit."

The Spirit Stone was formed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that had been accumulated over hundreds of millions of years. Although most of the Spirit Stone contained impurities, the hardness of the Spirit Stone was beyond imagination.

Ordinary weapons and tools could not be mined at all. It was said that the Cultivation Realm used magic treasures to mine the Spirit Stone Vein.

Even if someone from the Chu Family broke through to the Core Sea Stage and became a cultivator, magic treasures were not something that could be obtained just by becoming a cultivator. Without an extraordinary Artifact-refining Master, one wouldn't be able to obtain a powerful magical treasure.

Furthermore, the amount of Spirit Stone contained within a Spirit Stone Vein was enormous. It was impossible to mine all of them within a short period of time.

Lin Cheng could not help but be moved.

The people of Chu Family were very obedient and domineering. If he hadn't happened to run into Zhu Ziqiao and her people, he might have been killed by the Chu Family if it was any other Cultivating Warrior.

Looking at how vicious the fifth brother of the Chu Family was, he must have done a lot of such things.

Lin Cheng was very happy to snatch the Spirit Stone Vein from the Chu Family!

"Break through to the Core Sea Stage?" Zhu Ziqiao saw the bright light in Lin Cheng's eyes. She curled her lips and said proudly, "If you want to say that I can break through to the Core Sea Stage and become a cultivator, that's more like it. As for you?"

She shook her head and clicked her tongue.

Lin Cheng glared at her and did not lower himself to her level. His eyes swept across the Spirit Stone and there were a total of eight pieces. He immediately put them all away and his eyes fell on other things.

First was a pile of gold coins. There were about a hundred of them. Lin Cheng directly ignored them and looked at the porcelain bottles beside the gold coins.

Pill!

He immediately poured out a pill, but found that it was just an ordinary Energy-returning Pill. He looked at it and knew that it was a Second Cycle Energy-returning Pill. In his eyes, it was no different from trash.

"Mm? This is..."

Lin Cheng opened another porcelain bottle and frowned, "Poison? This bottle is actually filled with poison! "

He could not help but curse, "This person from the Chu Family is indeed not a good person. He even carries poison with him!"

Zhu Ziqiao coldly snorted," They only carry poison with them, but you fed poison to them directly. Furthermore, it was for your saviour! "

Lin Cheng acted as if he didn't hear her. He followed the method of opening the Storage Bag and put away everything. Then, he put away all the things he had brought with him.

However, when he prepared to put the Black Iron Chunk into the Storage Bag, he was stunned to discover that he actually couldn't put it in.

"Could it be that the Storage Bag is already full?"

Lin Cheng was stunned. He immediately used his mind to investigate the interior of the Storage Bag, but found that there was a space of about one meter square inside. The things he put in only took up half of the space, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to put the remaining space into the Black Iron Chunk.

But the strange thing was, no matter how he tried, he could not put it in. Just as he wanted to forcefully stuff it in, he felt the spatial formation inside the Storage Bag begin to tremble, as if it was about to collapse.

"This is really strange!"

Lin Cheng hurriedly put down the Black Iron Chunk and couldn't help but mutter, "Could it be that this Black Iron Chunk contains a huge amount of energy that the spatial formation inside the Storage Bag can't withstand?"

He studied it for a while but still couldn't find any clues.

"What is this?"

Zhu Ziqiao suddenly asked.

Lin Cheng looked up and saw her staring intently at the Black Iron Chunk. She seemed to be deep in thought.

"My weapon!" Lin Cheng casually said, then wrapped the Black Iron Chunk with his bag again and placed it behind his back.

"Humph! Speak if you want to!"

Seeing that Lin Cheng was perfunctory, Zhu Ziqiao snorted and said disdainfully.

However, her eyes were still fixed on the package on Lin Cheng's body. There was a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Lin Cheng noticed Zhu Ziqiao's gaze and his heart moved. Could it be that this girl knew about the Black Iron Chunk? Or perhaps she had guessed it. This Black Iron Chunk was the treasure in the Immortal Tomb?

Thinking of this, Lin Cheng took off his bag and began to take off his clothes.

Zhu Ziqiao's face immediately turned red and she hurriedly turned her head away. She spat, "Shameless thief, what, what are you doing?!"

"Didn't you see? I'm taking off my clothes!" Lin Cheng laughed.

"Bah! Who saw it! " Zhu Ziqiao was embarrassed and angry.

Lin Cheng quickly took off his long robe and tied the package diagonally to his shoulder. He tied the Black Iron Chunk close to his chest before putting on his clothes. He walked to the opposite tree and sat down cross-legged to rest.

At this moment, Zhu Ziqiao's body became bashful. She supported the tree and stood up. She turned around and walked towards the depths of the forest.

Lin Cheng glanced at her but ignored her.

If Zhu Ziqiao wanted to escape, he naturally would not stop her. He originally did not plan to take Zhu Ziqiao with him. It would be better if she left, and it would be less trouble for Lin Cheng.

However, what Lin Cheng didn't expect was that after about half an incense stick of time, Zhu Ziqiao came back. Lin Cheng looked at her and immediately understood what she was going to do.

Zhu Ziqiao's messy clothes became more neat, and her leather armor was adjusted again. Her messy hair was also tied up again.

Lin Cheng guessed in his heart that perhaps this girl also went to relieve herself.

Night fell.

Lin Cheng easily hunted a wild rabbit. After roasting it on the fire, he cut it into small pieces and wrapped it with a large leaf before placing it in front of Zhu Ziqiao.

"He actually used my dagger to hunt and cut meat..." Zhu Ziqiao protested discontentedly. Seeing that it did not have any effect, she angrily shut her mouth and did not say anything.

However, when she opened the leaves and saw the sliced meat, she looked at Lin Cheng with a complicated expression. However, she found that this little thief was eating big mouthfuls of meat. She couldn't help but curl her lips. A bumpkin was a bumpkin. Even his eating manners were so rude!

Very soon, Zhu Ziqiao did not have time to look down on Lin Cheng. After being on the horse and running for a day, she was already hungry and her chest was pressed against her back. She picked up the small pieces of grilled meat and quickly ate it.

At night.

Lin Cheng sat cross-legged under a big tree, holding a Spirit Stone in his hand.

This was the first time he had used a Spirit Stone to cultivate. There was a faint trace of anticipation in his heart. With the help of the pill and the amazing speed at which the Heavenly Profound Arts absorbed the natural Yuan energy, his cultivation had already reached a super high speed.

Now, if he added the Spirit Stone, how much could his cultivation speed increase?

The Heavenly Profound Arts began circulating. Suddenly, Lin Cheng felt as if the Spirit Stone in his hand had a spirit of its own. A cold feeling quickly surged into his body.

Spirit Qi?

Lin Cheng was delighted. He knew about this ice flow. It should be the pure and rich spirit Qi of the Spirit Stone. The moment this flow of ice entered his body... Under the guidance of the Heavenly Profound Arts, it started circulating rapidly through his meridians. It kept washing and nourishing his meridians.

Lin Cheng's spirit was immediately lifted.

"What a pure energy!" Lin Cheng was pleasantly surprised. As the flow of ice flowed past him, he only felt that he had become much more energetic. The effect was much better than absorbing the natural Yuan energy from the outside world.

When he was distracted, the ice current quickly disappeared. He quickly calmed his mind and continued to circulate the Heavenly Profound Arts to absorb the spiritual energy from the Spirit Stone as if he was thirsting for it.

Not far away, Zhu Ziqiao was also sitting under a big tree. Her big eyes were staring at Lin Cheng, who was cultivating. Her small canine teeth were grinding from time to time.

"Damn little thief, how dare you feed me poison? You are really black-hearted!"

Zhu Ziqiao's heart was so hateful that her teeth itched. She looked at Lin Cheng who was immersed in his cultivation. She could not help but think, "If I take advantage of this opportunity to attack, I will definitely be able to capture the little thief. When the time comes, I will feed him poison and tie him up on the back of the horse for a day. No, at least for two days. I won't give him any food or drink. I won't make it convenient for him either... "

Thinking of this, Zhu Ziqiao's pretty face became slightly hot, and then she started to grind her teeth again.

She had been on the horse by Lin Cheng for a whole day, and her whole body was about to fall apart. The most hateful thing was that Lin Cheng didn't even give her time to relieve herself. She was embarrassed to speak again. That kind of painful feeling almost drove her crazy.

Thinking about how she was going to torture Lin Cheng after capturing him, Zhu Ziqiao's eyes sparkled.

But very quickly, Zhu Ziqiao's Qi paused again. She remembered that she had eaten poison. Lin Cheng had said that if she did not circulate her Qi, it would be fine. Once she did, the terrible consequences would be...

"Perhaps, he is lying to me!"

Zhu Ziqiao was a little hesitant, "But... What if it is true?"

She remembered that Lin Cheng had put her short sword into the Storage Bag, and she became even angrier. If she had the short sword in her hand, even if she did not circulate her energy, she could still capture Lin Cheng.

As long as she put the sharp short sword on Lin Cheng's neck, he would definitely be scared shitless!

"How about... I try!"

Zhu Ziqiao took a deep breath and quietly activated the Profound Arts, wanting to see if Lin Cheng was lying to her.

Suddenly!

A slight piercing pain suddenly came from her body.

Zhu Ziqiao was so scared that her face changed. She quickly gave up on using the Profound Arts. Her face turned pale, "It's over, it's over. This damn little thief really gave me poison. What he said was true... What should I do? I just used my martial arts. Will I die from festering all over my body..."
