1005 Taining City, Each With Their Own Plans

Although they were mentally prepared, when they saw Chu Yunfan easily exterminate the powerful monsters that had chased them to the ends of the earth, they were still shocked.

Lin Hongfeng still didn't know what to say. The difference in strength was too great.

Previously, he felt that the difference between the Innate Stage and the Divine Abilities Stage was like the difference between Heaven and Earth. But today, he realized that the difference between each Divine Abilities Stage was just as great.

After Chu Yunfan put the monster's body into the Mountain River Diagram, he turned around and looked at Lin Hongfeng and the others.

"Thank you for saving us, Mr. Chu." Lin Hongfeng's face revealed a bitter smile. In just this short time, how many times had Chu Yunfan saved him?

"It's fine. It's just a small matter." Chu Yunfan waved his hand.

As for Lin Hongfeng, Lin Haoren, and the others, they didn't know what to say. For them, it was a matter of life and death. But for Chu Yunfan, it was just a matter of lifting his hand.

"By the way, did you get the inner core of the monster you killed? Send it to the place where I'm in seclusion. I'll refine it for you."

Chu Yunfan's clear voice could be heard, but his figure had already disappeared.

Lin Hongfeng quickly led everyone and flew in the direction of Tianhe.

Not long after, Lin Haoren personally brought people to deliver the ingredients needed to make the Divinity Nourishment Pill, and personally waited outside Chu Yunfan's seclusion room for his instructions.

Chu Yunfan was quite satisfied with Lin Hongfeng's attitude. It wasn't difficult for him to make the pill. In just three days, it was done.

However, he didn't just make one pill.

He had planned to turn the monster's inner cores into Divinity Nourishment Pills. It was because he was ambushed that he did not succeed. Now, he could take advantage of this opportunity to make them.

Helping Lin Haoren to make a Divinity Nourishment Pill was just something Chu Yunfan did in passing. But when he handed the pill to Lin Haoren, Lin Haoren was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

He was extremely grateful to Chu Yunfan.

Not long after Chu Yunfan finished making the pills, the group from Tianhe that had been selected to participate in the final distribution of the spirit stone mine set off.

This time, in addition to Lin Hongfeng and Lin Haoren, Lin Chenxi also went together with them. This time, Lin Hongfeng did not use his Divines abilities but instead brought a large group of people with him.

Chu Yunfan was not in a hurry. He sat in the carriage and gave pointers to Lin Chenxi as they traveled.

Lin Chenxi was talented. With sufficient cultivation resources and Chu Yunfan's guidance, in just three months, she advanced one step further and entered the third Innate Stage.

This level of cultivation surpassed that of even Chu Yunfan's younger sister, Chu Qingxuan. However, Chu Qingxuan had started late, unlike Lin Chenxi, who had been able to build a solid foundation since young.

Three days later, the group arrived at the place where the grand meeting was held—Taining City.

Compared to Tianhe, Taining was clearly bigger and more prosperous. At the same time, it was also the leader of the neighboring cities. Every time the spirit stone mine was to be redistributed, Taining would be the first and the other cities would follow.

When Chu Yunfan and his group entered Taining, they were immediately led to the inn they were to stay at.

This inn was the most expensive in Taining. However, the city had booked all the rooms to entertain the representatives of the other cities.

As soon as Chu Yunfan entered the lobby, he immediately sensed several powerful auras of Divines. Although they were well hidden, they couldn't hide from him.

A few divine wills instantly swept in their direction but they were focused on Lin Hongfeng, who had just reached the Divine Abilities Stage. As for Chu Yunfan, these wills sensed that he was just an ordinary person, so they naturally did not probe further.

Of course, all of this was done in secret. Among the people present, only Chu Yunfan knew. Lin Hongfeng could also sense that someone was spying on them, but he wasn't as clear about it as Chu Yunfan.

"Hmph!" Lin Hongfeng snorted coldly and sent the divine wills flying.

Those who had sent out these divine wills knew when to stop and had no intentions of further angering Lin Hongfeng. After this wave of probing, it was already enough. They had already obtained a lot of information.

At this moment, in the office of Taining's city lord, a square-faced, robust middle-aged man was listening to the report of a thin, ordinary-looking old man.

"That is all. According to our investigations, the city lord of Tianhe, Lin Hongfeng, has already the Divine Abilities Stage," the thin old man reported.

This old man was the Divine who had just used his divine will to probe Lin Hongfeng.

"I see. No wonder," the middle-aged man said indifferently.

If the people of Taining saw him, they would know that this middle-aged man was the city lord of Taining, Zhou Buyi.

"I was wondering why he dared to come," Zhou Buyi said, "Without the protection of the Fluttering Blooms, it's already good enough that Tianhe isn't swallowed up by others. Isn't participating in the division of the spirit stone mine just seeking their own death?

"However, since Lin Hongfeng has already entered the Divine Abilities Stage, he's qualified to participate."

Zhou Buyi paused for a moment before continuing, "But we don't have to worry about him. Though he has entered the Divine Abilities Stage, he's at most a tier-one Divine. He won't pose much of a threat to us. At most, he'll be able to keep his current share.

"The real trouble is Tuoshan City. Their city lord, Lu Shuzhou, is not someone to be trifled with. I only received this information after a few of my spies died. It seems like they've invited an extremely powerful master this time."

"It's fine. With me around, it shouldn't be a problem. In this region, there's no one who's a match for me," the old man said indifferently with absolute confidence in his tone.

"Great. Now that the mine has been sealed, whoever wins first place will get to enter first. I can seal the mine for a few days. I hope that you'll make this quick," Zhou Buyi said.

"Don't worry. According to our agreement, we'll each get half of the benefits."

The old man's eyes lit up when he thought of the item in the depths of the spirit stone mine. He had never thought that such a treasure would be produced in this mine.
