The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

"Look! It's that wind-like man again! I wonder how that man could fly so fast?"

"Don't worry about it. With our strength, we can only see his afterimage. It is conceivable that he must be much stronger than us. It is not our turn to control what he wants to do. Let's just look for the elixir." The middle-aged leader said.

"Oh."

……

After a long and arduous journey, Zhang Chentian finally completed the excavation of the more than 20 mineral veins marked on the map.

During this period, he worked tirelessly, climbing mountains and crossing rivers, going deep underground, looking for every mineral vein.

Hard work pays off. In the end, he successfully excavated nine earth-level mineral veins and two top-grade mysterious-level mineral veins. Such fruitful results made him feel extremely happy and satisfied.

At this moment, he stood on the top of the cliff, looking into the distance, and took in the beautiful scenery.

The mountains are rolling and shrouded in clouds and mist, like a magnificent painting unfolding before your eyes.

The breeze blew across his cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness, and also blew the hair on his forehead. Looking at this beautiful scenery, Zhang Chentian couldn't help but feel emotional, recalling his hard work and experiences over the past few months.

"Xiaota, we've reaped a rich harvest this time! After absorbing so many precious minerals, do you think you should be able to recover to the Saint Emperor realm?"

Zhang Chentian turned his head to look beside him and asked the little tower that had been with him all the time.

The little tower's spirit slowly emerged. It blinked its lively eyes and said teasingly, "Hey, guess."

Zhang Chentian shook his head helplessly and said:

"Oh, I won't guess! I've been so exhausted these past few days that I really don't have the energy to guess.

Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me now!"

As he spoke, he sat down heavily on a rock beside him, picked up a piece of gravel and threw it casually towards the bottom of the mountain.

The piece of gravel drew an arc in the air and then quickly disappeared into the vast valley.

I saw the fist-sized piece of gravel streaking across the sky like a meteor, falling straight down.

At this moment, a huge, shiny black sixth-level black bear was lazily lying on a green grassy open space at the foot of the mountain, resting, unaware of the impending danger.

In the blink of an eye, the piece of gravel hit the black bear squarely on the forehead.

There was a muffled "bang" sound, and the black bear, who had been sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up. It opened its eyes wide like copper bells and let out a deafening roar:

"Roar! Which little thief dares to attack Master Xiong? How can you be called a hero if you hide your head and show your tail? If you have the guts, come out and fight Master Xiong for three hundred rounds! Roar, roar, roar!"

As the roar rang out, the surrounding mountains and forests seemed to tremble.

However, after roaring for a while, the black bear found that there was no one around.

It scratched its head in confusion, and looked in the direction of the sound, finally stopping at the towering mountain next to it, which was ten thousand meters high and reached the clouds.

"Could it be... a rock that fell from this mountain?" Black Bear thought to himself.

After figuring this out, it shook its head helplessly, then stretched out its thick bear paw to rub its painful head, turned around and walked slowly towards its cave with heavy steps.

Xiaota couldn't help curling his lips when he saw Zhang Chentian, who looked completely lifeless, and said with disdain:

"It's so boring. Aren't young people supposed to be full of energy? Why don't you have any energy at all? You're not even as good as an old man like me."

Hearing this, Zhang Chentian was immediately furious. He rolled his eyes and retorted unhappily:

"Humph! That's easy for you to say. I've been flying so hard the whole way, so naturally you don't feel tired!

Over the past few months, I've traveled almost all over the Tianyuan Realm. How could I not be tired?"

After a brief pause, Zhang Chentian continued, "Xiaota, you haven't answered my question yet?"

"Enough!" Xiaota answered affirmatively.

Hearing that this was the answer he wanted, Zhang Chentian also smiled brightly.

Xiaota smiled confidently and calmly, and said slowly, "Once we successfully leave this place, you don't have to be so timid and hesitant anymore.

If you encounter things or people that make you feel unhappy, don’t think too much, just let go and deal with it!

If anything happens, just leave it to me. Aside from that old monster from the Holy Land, I can easily handle the rest!"

Hearing this, Zhang Chentian, who had been sitting upright, suddenly slapped his thigh and stood up. His tall figure looked particularly heroic, and he said loudly:

"Haha, that's exactly what I've been waiting for! After we get out, we must collect some precious resources for setting up the formation.

Then you can set up several Saint-level formations within the family. That way, I won't have to worry about the safety of the family."

However, when Xiaota heard this, he became speechless.

After a long while, it came to its senses and struck back mercilessly:

"Are you treating this Saint-level formation as if it were a piece of cabbage you could find anywhere?

You're actually dreaming of setting up several at once? With your current financial resources, you'd be considered good if you could just barely set up one, and it would definitely be a Saint-level formation at best."

"What? It actually requires such a huge amount of wealth?" Zhang Chentian widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief, and cried out.

Facing Zhang Chentian's questioning, Xiaota fired off a series of pointed questions:

"To successfully set up a ninth-level Saint-grade formation, the first prerequisite is to have rare spiritual materials or powerful spiritual weapons of heavenly rank or above to serve as the core hub of the formation.

Excuse me, do you have it? Can you afford it? Are you able to afford it?

"I can't afford it, I can't afford it, don't say anymore, don't say anymore."

"That's unbearable. I haven't even mentioned anything else yet, so you still need to work hard and don't aim too high~"

"Where is the core of this secret realm? Do we have a chance to refine it?"

"Don't even think about it. With your current strength, it will be difficult for you to refine even a medium-sized secret realm, let alone this large secret realm. Not every secret realm has Tianxue as its core." Xiaota replied.

"And I've seen that the core of this secret realm is the sea of ​​thunder where the Thunder Yuan is. It has great power, but it has no spiritual intelligence at all. Do you think you have the ability to refine it?"

"Uh, forget it."

Zhang Chentian thought about the power and vast area of ​​the sea of ​​thunder and shook his head. He estimated that only a Saint King would be able to refine it, not even a Saint.

"There is still about a month before the secret realm opens. Do you plan to practice here?" asked the little tower.

"I'm going to meet up with my father-in-law and the others. It's a good opportunity to see how they are doing now." After saying that, Zhang Chentian turned into a stream of light and flew towards the distance.
