Chapter 949: Chapter 949: Plundering Crystal Stone

Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals, though not very effective now, could still make up for some quality with quantity.

One hundred pieces wouldn’t suffice, then a thousand pieces, ten thousand!

"Don’t push it too far. Even if you defeated the Leach Lord, without the approval of the administrator, you are still not the boss here. We have no reason to listen to you."

The subordinates of the Leach Lord were still putting up a stubborn resistance, huddling together and looking somewhat fierce on the outside but timid within.

"If you wish to die, then you can continue to refuse. After all, killing you useless lot won’t take too much of my time!"

Ling Xiao stated coldly.

"Master, leave the killing to me, lest you dirty your hands."

Leng Mei also said with a smile.

"You are insane! If you kill so many people at once, the administrator, Pixiu Island, will not let you off!"

The subordinates of the Leach Lord shouted loudly.

"Is that so? I’d like to see them try!"

Ling Xiao intended to incite rebellion here from the start, did he care about the wrath of Pixiu Island?

What a joke.

Having said this, Ling Xiao pointed a finger, and all the subordinates of the Leach Lord collapsed to the ground.

These people were ruthless and deserved death long ago.

Ling Xiao had initially wanted to give them a chance to live, to help him fight against Pixiu Island, but now it seemed that having these kinds of people around would be an endless curse.

If during the uprising they turned against him, that would be more than troublesome.

"Leng Mei, collect all the Storage Rings."

Ling Xiao said.

Leng Mei nodded, gathering all the Storage Rings from the fallen Leach Lord and his subordinates.

"Young Master, monopolizing the Heavenly Elemental Crystals alone will cause great trouble. You’ve killed the Leach Lord, the administrator may be angry, but he may want to use you, so he won’t do much. But if you covet the Heavenly Elemental Crystal, that’ll be a different matter altogether."

An elderly man stepped out from the crowd and spoke tremulously.

"Do you all really intend to live in constant fear and confusion for the rest of your lives, exploited like cattle?"

Ling Xiao retorted.

"We would also like to resist, but all resistance is futile. The Leach Lord was just the slave leader of the second circle. Your killing him doesn’t count for much, the key is still the administrator of Pixiu Island."

The old man shook his head.

"So what?"

Ling Xiao countered.

"What?"

The old man was stunned.

"The debtor has a face; the debt has an owner. Do you think I act merely to slay the Leach Lord? Ridiculous! All of you think carefully. Those willing to revolt with me should get ready. I will visit every circle within this underworld factory, first cutting off the legs of Pixiu Island’s dogs, and then it will be Pixiu Island’s turn!"

Ling Xiao wasn’t afraid of being snitched on.

Even if no one betrayed him, his every move was likely under Pixiu Island’s surveillance, and to go completely undetected was impossible.

He wanted Pixiu Island to regard him as an arrogant and insane fool, best if they ignored him.

Pixiu Island cultivated the leaders of these circles not for them to simply loaf around; they surely hoped that they would be able to deal with Ling Xiao.

As the saying goes, choose your ingredients based on the dish to be cooked.

How could Pixiu Island possibly take a Martial Artist with an Early Stage of Three Talents Heaven cultivation level seriously?

Having spoken, Ling Xiao no longer paid attention to the Martial Artists, and he along with Leng Mei began to tally their gained Heavenly Elemental Crystals.

The harvest this time was quite substantial.

Even for a supreme genius like Ling Xiao, he could only produce a maximum of thirty Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals in a month.

Yet the Leach Lord and his subordinates possessed over a thousand Heavenly Elemental Crystals!

According to the exchange rate of 100,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones for one Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystal, those thousand-odd crystals amounted to over a billion Low-grade Spirit Stones.

As Ling Xiao counted the Heavenly Elemental Crystals, Xi Men Bo’s eyes turned red with envy and anger.

He really wanted to go report to the administrators of Pixiu Island and have Ling Xiao brought to justice.

But he didn’t dare to move.

Ling Xiao’s terrifying strength had nearly scared him witless.

In Ling Xiao’s presence, the Leach Lord, with his Five Elements Sky Cultivation Level, seemed insignificant and was easily defeated.

Under such circumstances, if Xi Men Bo cherished his life, he would definitely not dare to rashly offend Ling Xiao.

The thousand Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals that Ling Xiao acquired were the result of over a decade of exploitation by the Leach Lord.

After all, within this second ring, the strongest in terms of cultivation level was none other than the Leach Lord himself, with the others being martial artists below the Four Symbols Heaven Realm.

This meant that a person could produce at most four Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals per month.

Ninety percent of these crystals had to be submitted to Pixiu Island, leaving the Leach Lord with only ten percent, which wasn’t much at all.

Plus, quite a few had been used for his own cultivation, resulting in only a small accumulation over more than a decade. And because of his carelessness, all of it had been snatched away by Ling Xiao.

...

"Over a thousand crystals is still too few," said Ling Xiao upon returning to the cave.

"Too few?" Leng Mei was taken aback.

"That’s right, too few. Since we’re going to start a rebellion here, we might as well go all the way and rob the leaders of the other people’s rings too. Anyway, their wealth is ill-gotten," Ling Xiao stated.

"Agreed, but won’t Pixiu Island cause us trouble?" Leng Mei asked, frowning.

"They shouldn’t for now. I’ve just planted the seeds of rebellion among those slaves without inciting them. Pixiu Island won’t bother with such trifles," Ling Xiao shook his head and added, "This is the best opportunity. We need to finish what needs to be done before Pixiu Island takes action."

"This servant will follow Master’s orders in all things," Leng Mei replied, feeling a slight surge of excitement.

Her master was truly unconventional in his approach. The underground factory of Pixiu Island had existed for many years, and no one had ever dared to challenge the leaders of all the rings.

At most, they would defeat the leader of their own ring and take their place.

More importantly, her master seemed genuinely intent on destroying the place.

Having been born a slave, she had a visceral understanding of that agony. Ling Xiao’s approach touched her and made her even more willing to serve him.

"Before that, I need to continue increasing my strength!"

Ling Xiao was well aware that defeating a Leach Lord was no great feat, and now that he had acquired so many Heavenly Elemental Crystals, it was time to make use of them.

With the date being only the twenty-second, nine days remained until the end of the month. He planned to spend three days focusing on cultivation.

This time, he would concentrate solely on improving his cultivation level.

...

Three days later, Ling Xiao used over a thousand Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals along with Heavenly Spirit Divine Pills, and his cultivation level broke through to the Pinnacle of Three Talents Heaven!

"The time has come!"

Ling Xiao smiled faintly as he felt the power constantly surging within him. Right now, he really wanted to find someone to fight.

Although Leng Mei hadn’t made a cultivation breakthrough, her Early Stage of Five Elements Heaven cultivation level was now solidified.
