An hour later.
Zhou Sui, following the map he had obtained from Misty Cloud City, moved toward the Red Gold Mine.
“A path has been carved out?!”
As Zhou Sui approached the Red Gold Mine, he glanced around and was immediately taken aback.
Truthfully, this was his first time penetrating so deeply into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range. He usually stayed in the city, even his clone had only stayed in the mountains near Misty Cloud City and had never ventured far.
It was not until he reached the vicinity of the mine that he discovered a long path had been carved out. The surrounding trees and wild grass had been burnt down to make way for a dirt road that led to the mine.
Although it was not a cement road like in his past life, it was quite impressive for this world.
Throughout his journey, there were no major disturbances, and he arrived at the Red Gold Mine quite easily.
Thinking about it, it made sense. This was an area under the rule of the Immortal Mist Sect; no one who valued their life would dare to attack.
“A second-stage formation has been deployed within the mine. It seems the Immortal Mist Sect is indeed cautious.”
Zhou Sui did not enter but observed from afar. With his mid-first-grade Formation Cultivation Level, he immediately recognized that a second-stage formation had been deployed throughout the Red Gold Mine.
If anyone dared to infiltrate the Red Gold Mine, they would certainly be met with a thunderous assault.
Clearly, the Immortal Mist Sect had spared no expense to protect their property here.
One could not enter unless they were a disciple of the Immortal Mist Sect or a miner who had signed a contract.
Luckily for that, he had prepared in advance.
Whiz!
Suddenly, the Gold Eating Bug flew up and in a soundless flutter, position itself outside the storage bag of a cultivator miner who was preparing to enter.
In this way, the Gold Eating Bug could silently infiltrate into the Red Gold Mine.
“It worked.”
Zhou Sui sensed that the Gold Eating Bug had silently entered deep into the mine along with the loose cultivator miner. No one had detected it; he knew his plan had succeeded completely, without any accident.
“Old man, who are you?”
At this moment, an Immortal Mist Sect cultivator who was guarding the mine seemed to have discovered Zhou Sui’s sneaky activities and asked to know his identity.
Whiz!
But Zhou Sui had no interest in responding. With a sudden flash, he left the scene.
The Immortal Mist Sect cultivator looked uncertain, debated about pursuing him but ultimately decided against it, fearing a trap.
Of course, instead of returning to Misty Cloud City, the clone chose to stay in the wild.
It morphed back into the appearance of the Offspring-worm, a gu insect, burrowed into a tree, and began to sleep, waiting for the host to awaken.
This was the power of the Clone Gu. Not only could it form a body identical to the host, but it could also turn back into the Offspring-worm, becoming a gu insect, with its body shrinking and blending into its surroundings.
As for the Breakthrough Pills, retrieving them a few months later would not be too late. After all, the cultivation level of his main body had not yet reached the perfect Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, so retrieving them now was pointless.
Plus, it could expose his whereabouts.
At this moment, Zhou Sui, who was at home, received various messages from his clone and knew what had just transpired.
“Can it be, the Ghost Demon Sect and Immortal Mist Sect are gearing up for a war? If so, wouldn’t Misty Cloud City turn into a battlefield?” Zhou Sui’s expression was severe.
Although he wasn’t sure when war would break out, it was only a matter of time.
If he did not plan now, by the time war arrived, it may be too late.
“Fortunately, based on the memories of those three Demon Cultivators, even if they are preparing for war, it won’t happen overnight. It could take at least a year before it can be launched.”
“I have enough time to prepare within this year.”
Zhou Sui’s eyes sparkled.
After all, when cannons roar, gold abounds.
Even if this is a world of cultivation, it cannot escape the rule that war requires the expenditure of vast wealth.
Rushing to wage war without complete preparation is a path to destruction. Even if the Ghost Demon Sect is foolish, they would not be that foolish.
“If war were to break out, the prices of pills, runes, magic artifacts, and food will skyrocket.”
“Especially food. Other cultivation resources can be managed without, but food is indispensable.”
“If I were to dig a tunnel at home, I must prepare at least a year’s worth, no, three years, five years, or even ten years’ worth of food, to be absolutely safe.” “Even if the situation reaches a standstill, I will be able to stay in the tunnel for over ten years. Let’s see who can withstand it.”
Zhou Sui clenched his fist, he was completely ruthless.
Fortunately, food can be stored in the Gu Divine Bowl. Even stored for a hundred years, food would not spoil.
In this case, the more food prepared, the better. Anything surplus would not go to waste.
Moreover, he currently had too many Spirit Stones.
Due to the sale of Spiritual Wine and the continued influx of Loose Cultivators into Misty Cloud City, the sale of Spiritual Wine was on a steady rise.
Even in just a few months, he had earned two thousand Middle Grade Spiritual Stones, equivalent to two hundred thousand Lower Grade Spiritual Stones.
This was already an astonishing number.
Perhaps a common cultivator’s family would only make this much in a year.
If he didn’t fear being discovered, he would surely have earned more Spirit Stones.
“My dear, what’s wrong?”
Ji Bingyu had finished preparing lunch, and had already set out the delicious food. Seeing the serious look on Zhou Sui’s face as he emerged, she asked curiously.
“I just received some information. It seems like Misty Cloud City is in the sights of the Ghost Demon Sect.”
Zhou Sui did not hide anything and directly relayed what he knew.
What?!
Hearing this, the three women’s faces changed. They had not expected to hear such serious news.
“The Ghost Demon Sect, that’s the Demonic Sect mentioned in rumors. They have three Golden Core Master within their ranks and have a notorious reputation for their cruel and underhanded means. Wherever they go, there is death and destruction. If they have set their sights on the Immortal Mist Sect, then the later is in for a hard time, at the very least they will be seriously wounded.”
Ji Bingyu had also heard about this Demon Sect: “However, the Immortal Mist Sect is not easy to provoke either. They have two Golden Core Masters within their ranks. The Ghost Demon Sect is not foolish and wouldn’t want to induce mutual destruction with the Immortal Mist Sect. Unless they are completely prepared, neither faction is likely to start a war.”
“Exactly, our Misty Cloud City is just an ordinary city for Loose Cultivators. Even if it is near the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, it is not a core region of the Immortal Mist Sect. They shouldn’t be a primary target for the Ghost Demon Sect.”
Mu Ziyi comforted.
“No, one can’t be so certain. In an unsettled situation, everyone could suffer.
Even if the Golden Core Masters do not intervene and only
Foundation-building Cultivators take action, we ordinary cultivators would be hard-pressed to resist. But it’s impossible for us to escape now. Based on what my husband said, the surroundings of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range are already filled with the Ghost Demon Sect’s cultivators. If we tried to escape now, we would fall right into their hands.”
Ji Bingyu said seriously..
