Eternal Sovereign

A group of warriors wearing special battle uniforms stood there in groups of two or three, and they were chatting with people they were familiar with.    

    

Behind them was the Chen Family Army. They were the guards of the city gates, and each and every one of them looked at the warriors in special battle uniforms with envy.    

    

The warriors in special battle uniforms were this time's Spirit Stone Squad. They were responsible for heading to the Chen Family 'spirit veins to transport the spirit stones excavated during this month.    

    

Compared to guarding the city gate, which was very boring, going to the Chen Family and spirit veins would give them a chance to fish in troubled waters and fill their private pockets.    

    

As long as the Chen Family warriors digging for spirit stones did not do it especially obviously, no one would say anything at all even if they had one or two spirit stones in their veins.    

    

But once these spirit stones were obtained from the Chen Family, they could be exchanged for Contribution Points s.    

    

Members of the Spirit Stone Squad could pay a portion of the Contribution Points s to exchange for spirit stones from warriors who had hidden spirit stones. Once they returned to the Chen Family, they would exchange the spirit stones for the Contribution Points.    

    

Even though there were a lot of people who knew about it, everyone knew that this kind of thing could not be put on the surface and had to be secretly done. Therefore, for the practitioners who dug out spirit stones from the Chen Family and spirit veins, they would at most need half of the Contribution Points s and give the Spirit Stone Squad members a chance to earn a difference in prices.    

    

Of course, warriors who dug out spirit stones could also save them themselves, and exchange them for Contribution Points after returning to the Chen Family.    

    

However, practitioners who excavated spirit stones through the spirit vein were usually only allowed to leave after digging for at least two to three years based on the number of years.    

    

Without a source of Contribution Points for the past two to three years, it meant that he could only cultivate arduously and watch others cultivate with their eyes.    

    

Some people were even sent here because they had calculated wrongly. They weren't allowed to return to the Chen Family at all within ten, twenty, or even thirty years.    

    

A few decades of pure hard training. Unless one's innate talent was extremely outstanding, one's advancement would be ordinary. There were many Chen Family warriors and their strengths were outstanding, but were these warriors really that strong in talent? Is there really no one with such low talent?    

    

Of course there were, but because there were so many resources, the final results far exceeded the limits of their innate talent.    

    

Normally, when warriors were outside, they would only be at the middle stages of Circulation Stage. When there were sufficient resources, they could at least reach the late stage of Circulation Stage or even the great perfection stage.    

    

Even the Great Circulation Stage would have the chance to take it on.    

    

So, and Contribution Points are very important!    

    

Only with enough Contribution Points could he exchange for sufficient cultivation resources.    

    

However, the cultivation resources stored in the Chen Family and spirit vein were limited, and the Chen Family would not send too many resources here.    

    

Therefore, of the resources sent here by the Chen Family, the most they aroused the coveting of one or two ordinary Innate Genuine Returning Stage experts, and the Chen Family and spirit vein were always on guard here, guarding one or two ordinary Innate Genuine Returning Stage, so there was no fear at all.    

    

This was also the reason why warriors who excavate spiritual stones, even if they had Contribution Points s, they wouldn't have much to exchange for them.    

    

As a result, many warriors who excavated spirit stones would request for spirit stones to be received and brought with them cultivation resources, which they could use to exchange for Contribution Points.    

    

Therefore, sometimes, when warriors who had spirit stones stashed away would sell their spirit stones privately, the demand for Contribution Points would only be lower. Sometimes, the price of a spirit stone would be less than half of the normal price, and sometimes, it would be as low as one-third of the time.    

    

When every member of the Spirit Stone Squad returns, they will welcome a sudden rich Contribution Points.    

    

This naturally caused the group of guards who could only guard the gates to the Chen Family to be extremely envious and jealous.    

    

Therefore, even if Elder Ming Zhe arranged for Chen Yanming and the other deacons to object, it would still be useless. Chen Yanming and the other deacons could say that Elder Ming Zhe harbored malicious intentions, but Elder Ming Zhe could use the various benefits of Spirit Stone Squad to refute that.    

    

How could the higher ups not know what the Spirit Stone Squad was doing in private? They were just turning a blind eye to it.    

    

Asking your subordinate to do something, you have to at least give your subordinate some benefits.    

    

Moreover, this time Chen Yi and the rest were going to a relatively small and low grade spirit vein. The majority of the spirit stones they produced were low grade spirit stones, and only a small portion of them were Middle Grade Spirit Stone.    

    

Generally speaking, low rank soul stones were used to help Innate Experts speed up the evolution of Genuine Qi.    

    

The Quasi-innate was not a true Innate, so they could not absorb the surrounding spirit energy freely. They could only use the Ancestral Aperture of Forehead to sense the spirit energy of heaven and earth, and cause the body to resonate with the spirit energy of heaven and earth. This would allow the spirit energy to enter the body by itself, allowing the Postnatal Genuine Qi to slowly transform.    

    

If one did not rely on some methods, it was impossible for Quasi-innate to absorb spiritual energy from low grade spirit stones.    

    

True Upper Sky users did not need any special methods. As long as they had a spiritual stone in their hand, they could draw out the spiritual energy from the spiritual stone and absorb it into their body.    

    

However, the spirit energy within the low-grade spirit stones was simply too weak. If he wanted to rely on the low-grade spirit stones to raise his strength, he would need at least a thousand to raise a single hair.    

    

A true Innate would be too lazy to absorb low grade spirit stones. They might as well swallow some medicinal pills or some high concentration Spirit Spring Water, or they might as well just directly cultivate in the Spirit Spring Water.    

    

Middle Grade Spirit Stone were only suitable for true Innates.    

    

A half-step Astral Deities Worship Stage that had reached its limit, and could not be stepped on yet again. Swallowing several hundred thousand or millions of Middle Grade Spirit Stone would allow one to advance to the Astral Deities Worship Stage.    

    

But he couldn't take out this kind of number of Middle Grade Spirit Stone. With the current Astral Deities Worship Stage, he still relied on his own Inherent Skill and other resources, not the Middle Grade Spirit Stone.    

    

High-grade spirit stones were even rarer.    

    

The Chen Family possessed many spirit veins, but none of them were able to produce high-grade spirit stones.    

    

If the warriors digging for Spirit Stones wanted to hide the Middle Grade Spirit Stone, they were not allowed to, and they were not allowed to trade either.    

    

However, these upper echelons really did not care about mere low-grade spirit stones. If their subordinates wanted to get their hands on something, they would get their hands on it. As long as it was not too much, they would not interfere.    

    

As a result, many people tried to squeeze through their brain to enter the Spirit Stone Squad.    

    

Chen Yanming and the rest couldn't prove that Elder Ming Zhe was against Chen Yi. With his position as a mere deacon, it was hard for him to refute Elder Ming Zhe's order.    

    

Chen Yi and Chen Wenshu were also in the team. Due to their familiarity, the two of them gathered at the side.    

    

Facing the jealous gazes of the guards behind them, the two of them felt helpless.    

    

Even if they said that Elder Ming Zhe wanted to harm them, no one would believe it.    

    

As for the other members of the team, they were more vigilant towards Chen Yi, Chen Wenshu and the others who obviously came from Heavenly Pride. In their eyes, Chen Yi and the others were only relying on their background to get the advantage of the team.    

    

Someone with such a background would definitely have someone at the spirit vein. They would definitely be able to obtain more spirit stones than they could.    

    

The formless naturally affected their interests.    

    

With envious looks behind them, the members of the team in front of them were more against them. Chen Yi and Chen Wenshu looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
