Covering the Sky: Fishing for the Supreme Bone, making Ji Ziyue drool!

Although Ji Ziyue was reluctant, she was actually very considerate and did not cause Lin Chen any further trouble.

The group soon left the town and entered the Qixia Mountains.

No sooner had they left than a group of knights riding flying birds appeared in the town of Jin.

They bear the insignia of the Yao Guang Holy Land, signifying their noble status.

Some of them possessed particularly terrifying strength, riding fire phoenixes and having the legendary, rare bloodline of the divine phoenix. Their strength was comparable to that of veteran powerhouses, making them great demons.

"Who is making such a grand entrance? It turns out to be fellow Daoists from the Yao Guang Holy Land. My Xiaoyao Sect has not offended your Holy Land. Why are you all making such a fuss?"

In the distance, a figure rode a sword, his white robes fluttering, like a legendary sword immortal.

"Li Chunxiao."

A hint of apprehension flashed in the eyes of the knight from the Holy Land of Yao Guang, recognizing the sword-wielding man.

This is an elder of the Xiaoyao Sect with extremely high cultivation, who has been in charge of the Jin Kingdom for over a hundred years.

Because of him, few dared to cause trouble in the State of Jin; he was truly a one-man ruler who controlled the entire country.

"Fellow Daoist Li, rest assured, our mission is to capture someone, and it has nothing to do with your Xiaoyao Sect."

"Oh? If I remember correctly, Elder Xu Feng, you had already reached the seventh level of the Dragon Transformation Realm fifty years ago, and you actually came forward in person. I heard that there have been bandits appearing in the Southern Region recently. Could it be that the Yao Guang Holy Land has discovered their whereabouts?"

"You don't need to worry about that. We're going to search this place. Since you're here, cooperate. You'll get your share of the benefits."

Chapter 132 Young people are so easy to fool!

Xu Feng possessed profound cultivation and, as an elder of the Holy Land, his tone naturally exuded a sense of authority.

Li Chunxiao didn't care. As long as these people weren't here to deal with the Xiaoyao Sect, everything would be fine.

Soon, the entire city was searched, but no results were found.

"You're running pretty fast, but no matter what you do, you can't escape. The scent is coming from that direction, chase after it!"

Elder Xu Feng pointed in the direction of Qixia Mountain Range, and a group of knights took to the air and flew towards the mountain range.

"Who are those people? Just the demonic beasts they ride are terrifying!"

"They are powerful figures from the Yao Guang Holy Land. There seem to be several elders among them, whose cultivation levels are unfathomable!"

"As expected of a holy land, it's amazing that such a person could emerge from here. I want to become a strong person like them in the future!"

As the knights of the Yao Guang Holy Land departed, many young cultivators were filled with anticipation and longing.

They felt that these people were simply invincible and could sweep across the world.

……

The Qixia Mountains were originally just an ordinary mountain range.

However, due to the exposure of the Peacock King's secluded place, this area was turned into a scorched wasteland, even more desolate than Zhuofeng, with not a blade of grass growing there.

Many mountains were shattered, and there are bottomless abysses and ravines, making it hard to imagine what kind of earth-shattering battles had taken place here.

Today, Lin Chen and his group were not the only ones here; there were also many other cultivators.

The act of pilgrimage to holy sites is something ingrained in our DNA; wherever a major event occurs, it will always attract a large number of people.

With the influx of people, business opportunities naturally arise. What was once a desolate mountain range is now filled with vendors selling goods.

Those who come here are naturally cultivators, and what they sell are things like Origin and magic treasures.

"Take a look! This is top-quality Purple Radiance Copper Essence, an essential item for cultivators at the Four Extremes level when refining weapons!"

"The stone, suspected to be from the Primordial Ancient Mine, may very well yield a rare divine source. It's available at a rock-bottom price of just one pound of pure source. You won't regret buying it!"

"Although my knife is broken, I found it here by chance a few days ago, and it may very well be the weapon of some Holy Lord. I don't need ninety-nine or ninety-nine kilograms, just nine kilograms of pure source, and I'll take the Holy Lord's weapon home!"

The sounds of vendors hawking their wares filled the once tranquil Qixia Mountains, giving Lin Chen the feeling of being in a bustling market.

He glanced at it casually and found that most of it was a hoax, claiming to be stone from the Primordial Ancient Mine, but it was actually just ordinary material, or even scraps. Lin Chen's Origin Heaven Divine Sense saw through it at a glance.

The so-called "holy lord's weapon" is even more outrageous; it's clearly just an ordinary wood-chopping knife, yet they dare to flaunt it and deceive people like fools.

Lin Chen felt it necessary to punish these unscrupulous merchants, so he walked up to the stone stall, picked up a piece at random, and paid for a pound of Pure Source.

"Fellow Daoist has an excellent eye! This stone is superb. The cut surface... ah, I mean the stone surface is smooth and flat. It's very likely that an unparalleled divine source could be cut out from it!"

The stall owner smiled and said, "He's fat and looks like a thief in that Taoist robe."

Upon seeing this person, Ji Ziyue almost couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

Isn't this the same wicked fat Taoist priest we encountered at the Qingdi Tomb?

That's right, this "conscientious" stall owner is none other than Duan De, the number one honest man in the world of "Covering the Sky"!

Lin Chen smiled faintly and said, "Daoist, you are clearly a magnanimous person. The stone from the Primordial Ancient Mine would cost at least several dozen kilograms of Origin, yet you have offered such a unique price. It's practically charity!"

"Hey, you're a monk, money is just an external thing, everything is fate. Quickly cut it open and see what's inside?"

Duan De said, his greasy face scrunched up in a wide grin.

These days, young people are so easily fooled. They treat a piece of scrap material that was clearly discarded by the source as a treasure.

This source is making money way too easily!

Although Lin Chen now looks like a middle-aged man, in Duan De's old dog eyes, he is still a naive young man who doesn't know the dangers of the world.

Many people around also noticed this place, mainly because Ji Ziyue, Qin Yao and Yan Ruyu were too eye-catching. Even though they had changed their appearance, they were still outrageously beautiful.

Coupled with the unique temperament of a princess, she was far superior to ordinary women.

Seeing that Lin Chen had actually bought a piece of obviously waste stone, everyone immediately had the same impression of him.

A textbook example of a foolish son from a wealthy landlord's family!

I wonder which nouveau riche came from; I bet he's never gambled on stones before, otherwise he wouldn't have bought such a piece of junk.

"Open it quickly, let us see what kind of rare divine source is inside?"

"Hahaha! A rare divine source, my foot! If it contained even a tiny bit of that source, I'd buy that broken woodcutter's knife and eat it!"

"Don't think I don't know you're freeloading!"

"Fellow Daoist, keep it up! Whether I have nine jin of source material or not depends on you!"

A group of people cheered and jeered, all watching the spectacle.

Such a sucker is a rare sight.

"Daoist Master, are you sure you want me to open this stone here? What if it turns out to be a source later? You won't go back on your word, will you?"

Lin Chen asked, looking quite serious.

However, Duan De scoffed at it.

This guy is quite pretentious; does he really think he can cut out the source?

Do you think you're a source master who can find missing sources in the scrap?

Just kidding, even if it were real Originium, it wouldn't work, since the probability of finding Originium in waste is almost zero.

If it were that easy to find, he would have cut them all up himself long ago instead of bringing them over to sell.

Duan De was certain that there wouldn't be even a trace of Origin in this stone, and Lin Chen's expression later would definitely be quite interesting.

"Honest business dealings, no cheating the young or old. Even if you cut out an ultimate weapon, it's yours! If I go back on my word, I'll be struck by lightning!"

"Then I'm really serious, you really shouldn't regret it."

"Just cut it, what's with all the fuss?"

"Well, someone's destined to have a sleepless night."

Lin Chen sighed, his confident demeanor making Duan De suddenly feel uneasy.

Could I have really run into someone pretending to be a fool? Is this kid a Source Master?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

How rare are the Source Masters?

Those who are truly skilled are only a few ancient families specializing in Origin Techniques.

As a shrewd businessman, he had naturally done market research. He knew all the scions of those aristocratic families, and there was no one like this person in front of him!

With a strange unease in his heart, Lin Chen picked up the stone-cutting knife beside him and, without pausing or blinking, chopped down.

Everyone took a deep breath.

hiss--

That's too ruthless. Even if you know it's waste material, you would normally peel it off layer by layer slowly, right?

Who else can do something like Lin Chen, slashing down with a single blow?

Moreover, the cut is made right in the middle, so there's no fear of damaging the source.

If a complete source is broken up, a large amount of its life essence will be lost, and its value will be greatly diminished.

This cutting method really made their blood pressure rise!
