Chapter 221: Chapter 220: Scouring for Primordial Stones

Five thousand jin of Primordial Stones.

Even Song Qinghong’s old heart skipped a beat at that number.

"Master Lin, five thousand jin of Primordial Stones will require some time. The current inventory of our Song Family only amounts to three thousand jin."

Primordial Stones are essential for Cultivation and, in the short term, are considered a non-renewable resource.

Most of these stones are controlled by the government, with private Sects and families possessing some, but very little.

Even for a giant like the Song Family, the total stored only amounted to a little over three thousand jin.

"Over three thousand might not be enough. I’ll see if I can get some more from the Mingyang Sect." Lin Hao was helpless.

This time, he needed a large amount of Primordial Stones, where even ten thousand jin wouldn’t seem excessive.

"Master Lin, five thousand jin is not impossible. I have lived for over a hundred years, I do have some influence. More than three thousand jin from the Song Family, plus borrowing some, and getting some from our people, making up the five thousand isn’t a big problem."

Song Qinghong did not know what Lin Hao needed so many Primordial Stones for, but he did not ask further. As a subordinate, there were some things that he naturally wouldn’t inquire about.

"Alright, how long will it take to gather?" Lin Hao asked.

"Tomorrow morning."

"Good, Elder Song, I’ll await your good news!"

That night, the two great experts of the Song Family, Song Qinghong and Song Taishan, personally ventured out from Song’s Villa and rushed to various places in Jiangbei to meet with some Sects.

They did not sleep all night and even notified all members of the Song Family to bring back any Primordial Stones they had.

Knowing that Lin Hao was about to take on the Lan Family, Song Qinghong and Song Taishan did not dare to be careless.

To be honest, they did not have much confidence in confronting the Lan Family.

If Lin Hao had a trump card against them, then it would be more than welcome.

In any case, having chosen Lin Hao, they had to fully support him in this matter.

The next morning, when Lin Hao met them, they appeared exhausted and damp with dew, clearly having just returned.

"Master Lin, follow me." Song Qinghong personally led the way to a stone room. As the stone room opened, it was filled with Primordial Stones, large and small. At a glance, there seemed to be nearly seven thousand jin.

"Almost all of Jiangbei’s Primordial Stones are here now, of course, excluding the government’s. It’s better to have as little to do with them as possible," Song Qinghong said slowly.

"It must have been hard for you." Lin Hao did not say much outwardly, but he knew that these Primordial Stones did not come easily; the two must have expended many years’ worth of accumulated influence on this.

Of course, Lin Hao would make them see that their family’s choice was the right one.

Taking out two notebooks from his person, Lin Hao handed them to Song Qinghong: "Here are some Martial Techniques and an improved version of your Song Family’s Cultivation Technique. Take a look, they might be helpful."

"Here’s a thousand jin of Primordial Stones. Elder Song, Song Taishan, take five hundred jin each. I believe you will need them in the coming month."

Song Qinghong curiously received the notebook handed over by Lin Hao but did not look at it: "Master Lin, if you need them, just take all of them. Taishan and I can’t break through at the moment, so we probably won’t need these things."

"Maybe not." Lin Hao confidently smiled, "Take a look at the contents first."

Song Qinghong skeptically opened the notebook and glanced over it, his eyes revealing a shocked expression the next moment.

Next to him, Song Taishan was also reading, his beard beginning to tremble.

What they saw was the Cultivation Technique, the improved version!

While it was an improved version, nearly the entire Cultivation Technique, except for some essential parts, practiced by the Song Family had been recompiled.

It’s like comparing today’s smartphones with the old brick phones – both serve the primary function of making calls, but the smartphone is lighter, more convenient, and has more features!

So is the case with Lin Hao’s improved Cultivation Technique, which, without a doubt, would enhance their abilities significantly!

The two were extremely surprised.

Within the span of just over ten hours from yesterday to today, they hadn’t shown Lin Hao their Cultivation Technique.

Yet, he discerned the flaws in the Song Family’s technique and improved it...

Both felt their throats go dry. Living for over a hundred years, not even the deaths of Song Manjiang and Song Wuji had shocked them as much as this little notebook did. It made their hearts race and their complexions flush with excitement.

And the Martial Techniques listed later were tailor-made for the Song Family!

There were a total of eight Martial Techniques, each one superior to the precious ones treasured by the Song Family, better and stronger!

Song Qinghong closed the notebook and walked solemnly to Lin Hao, bowing deeply: "Master Lin, great kindness does not require thanks. As long as the Song Family exists in this world, we shall be Master Lin’s blade!"

Song Taishan also bowed respectfully.

It was only at that moment that he understood why Song Qinghong had chosen Lin Hao.

Five thousand jin of Primordial Stones in exchange for the entire Song Family, was it a loss?

Not at all!

From any perspective, it was definitely not a loss.

The two had deep experience and instantly recognized the feasibility of the Cultivation Technique and the value of the Martial Techniques. Primordial Stones may be non-renewable, but they still exist in the world.

But the techniques that Lin Hao offered, they were not available anywhere else in the world!

"Get up quickly, from now on, I and the Song Family are in the same boat, and of course, I won’t shortchange you," Lin Hao helped Song Qinghong up, "Once you’ve mastered the Martial Techniques and Cultivation Techniques in there, I will provide new teachings."

"Additionally, those Primordial Stones will be replenished by me in the future."

Lin Hao was never a petty person. Anyone who was his and sincere to him, he would support to the best of his ability.

Giving these things to the Song Family was, in his eyes, just a trivial matter, things that came easily to him. The real treasures, given the level of the Song Family, were currently beyond their ability to cultivate.

"Thank you, Master Lin!" Song Qinghong was overwhelmed, growing increasingly loyal to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao merely smiled and did not say much more. He strolled around the stone room and touched the Primordial Stones one by one.

Every Primordial Stone he touched vanished into thin air in an instant, which astonished both Song Qinghong and his son.

However, they did not ask why; without asking, they knew Lin Hao possessed treasures.

Thousands of jin of stones could not just disappear through any magic trick.

"Ancestor!" At that moment, a middle-aged man arrived outside the stone room, "Someone from the Mingyang Sect seeks an audience."

"It should be the Mingyang Sect delivering the Primordial Stones," Lin Hao said, having already informed Huai Shian yesterday to collaborate with the Yu Family, Zou Tianyu, and the Sun Family to gather Primordial Stones.

"Oh?" Song Qinghong busily said, "Lead the way, then!"

"Yes!"

The middle-aged man took the lead, bringing Lin Hao and the others to the entrance of Song’s Villa.

At the gate.

A large truck was parked sideways.

The truck was covered with black cloth, a total of three trucks, with only the one in the middle carrying goods, while the ones in front and back were filled with people.

Over a hundred bodyguards escorted the cargo, including two Grandmasters!
