Chapter 99: A Significant Gain (Please Subscribe)

"Another cave?" Xu Mingwei's expression was strange.

But in the crevices of the cave, ancient, dark vines grew obliquely, with specks of phosphorescent moss hanging from them, their eerie light flickering in the mountain breeze.

The stone steps at the cave entrance have been worn smooth by time, but some bone dust has accumulated in the corners.

As Xu Mingwei stepped into the cave, a chill instantly swept over him. The stalactites on the cave ceiling resembled inverted wolf teeth, and the dripping sound of water echoed in the empty space.

There were many skeletons scattered in the corners, mostly of animals, but also some human bones.

Xu Mingwei thought to himself that there might be the remains of cultivators in the nest of a Qi Refining demon beast. If so, there might be magical artifacts, storage bags, or similar items.

He searched carefully.

The first thing you see is a huge bird's nest made of withered branches and leaves. Inside the nest are three eagle eggs the size of a human head. The surface of the eggs has blue patterns and they emit a warm feeling.

"Live."

Xu Mingwei smiled. Even without any other gains, as long as he brought back these three eagle eggs and hatched them all, it would all be worth it.

After turning his attention away, he continued to explore the cave.

There were no weapons or anything like that, but three small gray brocade pouches were found.

"If it can't be opened, it must be a storage bag used by cultivators?"

"This harvest is truly remarkable. It seems that my third brother's talent is indeed extraordinary, as he knows how to seek advantage and avoid harm."

Xu Mingwei also sensed that the five siblings were exceptionally talented, perhaps due to a deep connection with their father.

However, although he knew the secrets involved, he dared not reveal them easily, and buried his doubts deep in his heart.

He knew that his father had his reasons for not speaking up.

Xu Mingwei put the storage bag into his pocket, wrapped the three eagle eggs in cloth, and stuffed some dry branches and leaves inside as cushioning.

Then he untied the hemp rope from his waist and tied it to a stone pillar in the cave.

They drew their bows and shot arrows in the general direction of Xu Mingxuan and the others. After the arrows landed on the ground, the group immediately tightened the ropes and tied them to the trunk of a giant tree.

Seeing that the rope was taut, Xu Mingwei quickly tied the eagle egg to his waist.

Fortunately, the eggshell of the monster is hard, so it won't break with a slight impact.

He then took out a bent iron rod, placed it on the hemp rope, gripped both ends tightly with both hands, and quickly slid down the rope.

A wisp of blue smoke immediately rose from the surface of the hemp rope.

But Xu Mingwei slid down even faster. Several meters above the ground, the rope suddenly burst into flames, and he immediately let go of his hands and jumped down.

Peng~
The ground trembled slightly.

A distance of several feet was nothing to a master martial artist like him.

Once the flames on the hemp rope were lit, they quickly spread and almost completely burned the entire rope.

However, after Xu Mingxuan and the others returned safely, they cut the rope, leaving a section intact.

"Brother, everything is as you said." Xu Mingxuan stepped forward excitedly.

"I'm just picking up what my father has said."

Xu Mingxuan smiled and shifted his gaze to his waist, exclaiming in surprise, "There are actually three eagle eggs!"

"I hope they all survive." Xu Mingwei looked around. "Let's go, it's getting dark, we should go home."

By the time they returned to the Xu family home, night had completely fallen.

Xu Mingwei placed the corpses of the two Azure Fire Eagles in the Jade Cold Pool and asked Xu Mingshu and the others to help guard them.

a few days later.

Xu Chuan was surprised to learn that Xu Mingwei was troubled by dealing with the corpse of the Azure Fire Eagle and the hatching of the eagle.

But I was very happy.

He and Xu Mingxian continuously accumulated wealth outside, planning for the Xu family, and Xu Mingwei and the others lived up to his expectations, gradually strengthening the Xu family.

Xu Mingxian was also surprised when she learned of this.

Only half a month had passed since the last time, and Xu Mingwei and his group had already hunted down two more flying monsters.

On the day.

Xu Mingxian then returned to the Xu family and put the two corpses of the Azure Fire Eagles into her storage bag.

Xu Mingwei handed him three storage bags. "They're all defective storage bags."

Xu Mingxian recognized it at a glance, used his divine sense to open it, and then took out the contents.

A crimson flying sword and a small, black shield with a beast's head are both low-grade magic weapons.

There were also twenty-six spirit stones, three ordinary spell manuals, five or six magic manuals, and some ordinary gold and silver items.

"They all seem to be ordinary rogue cultivators." Xu Mingxian glanced at them, then looked at Xu Mingwei and said indifferently, "I'll take the spirit stones with me, and leave the rest at home for my elder brother to handle."

Xu Mingwei nodded.

"Yun Nu, when you get back, help me find out how to hatch the Azure Fire Eagle's egg."

“I already know about this. My father asked around and instructed us to place the eagle eggs in a greenhouse and put two or three fire-attribute spirit stones around them. The spirit stones have already been brought.”

As Xu Mingxian spoke, he patted his storage bag, and fifteen fire-attribute spirit stones flew out and landed on the desk.

"This"

"It's better to be prepared." Xu Mingxian smiled faintly.

Xu Mingwei smiled and replied, "That's quite right."

Moon Lake Market.

"Father, I have brought the Azure Fire Eagle back."

“Okay, you can handle it yourself. Leave the flesh and blood essence to me to refine the Innate Blood Pill,” Xu Chuan replied.

The essence of the Azure Fire Eagle lies in its feathers, which can be used to craft magical robes, making it as light as a swallow and far more precious than the scales of the Crimson Scale Python.

Of course, the flesh and blood that can be used to refine the Innate Blood Pill are far inferior to those of the Crimson Scale Python.

"By the way, Father, we also received three substandard storage bags. Apart from the twenty-six spirit stones, the rest of the magical artifacts and spells were left at home."

"Oh, so that's what I found too."

Xu Chuan's divination was not omnipotent. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Use these spirit stones to help me buy a batch of spirit herbs. It is not a long-term solution to rely on others to refine pills."

"Yes, Dad."

Time flies.

In the following six months, Xu Mingwei took a high-grade blood pill and broke through to the late stage of the Grandmaster realm.

Xu Mingshu was born with perfect innate qualities, completing her five elements of spiritual roots. However, in order to improve the quality of her spiritual roots, she still practiced diligently every day.

Xu Mingyuan has entered the late stage of the Innate Realm, while Xu Mingxuan is at the peak of the late stage of the Innate Realm, just one step away from the perfect Innate Realm.

Xu Dezhao, Xu Dewen, and Wu Tao, among other younger generation members, have all made great progress.

Zhang Wanqing, however, became pregnant again, which delayed her cultivation.

The sons of the Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li, Zhou, Chen, and Bai families have all grown up.

They were either seventeen or eighteen years old, or just over twenty. Even the least talented among them had reached the level of a first-rate martial artist, and several even broke through to the peak of the acquired realm.

The Xu family sent them to a neighboring county to manage their family business.

With the strong support of the Xu family, the various families quickly established themselves.

On the one hand, they developed the foundation of their own clan, and on the other hand, they managed the Xu family's businesses such as Qianjinfang and Zuiyunju.

At the end of each season, the heads of each household would return to the Xu family in Dongxi to report in detail to Xu Mingwei and Xu Mingyuan, present the account books, and explain the gains and losses.

Xu Mingyuan also took a break from his busy schedule to devote himself to martial arts.

With more free time, Wu Rushan became pregnant again after Zhang Wanqing.

Several years later, the Xu family is about to welcome a new life, and the mansion is bustling with activity once again.

Moon Lake Market.

Zhou's Dan Shop.

"Fellow Daoist San Shu is leaving?"

Upon hearing the news, Zhou Sen immediately rushed from Zhou Family Mountain Gate to Yuehu Market.

"I am not far from the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the Great Perfection of Qi Refining is just around the corner. I must plan for my future path. Does Elder Zhou not want to establish his foundation?"
