Beast Piercing The Heavens

Originally, when he heard that Ye Qinghan could use Sky Fire to defend against the cold and enter Tung Shuang Shan together with Ye Qinghan, he did not feel embarrassed either. Just as Lei Jue was secretly rejoicing in his relief, he suddenly thought of another possibility and his face immediately became unsettled.    

    

"That's not right, this Ye Qinghan has the protection of heavenly fire, so he doesn't need any defensive armor to wear his Tung Shuang Shan. Wouldn't those workers who haven't reached the Profound Meaning Stage, think that Ye Qinghan's cultivation is deeper than theirs, so they won't use any defensive armor to wear their Tung Shuang Shan?"    

    

Thinking about it this way, Lei Jue even had the impulse to let Ye Qinghan wear a few vestments on his body, even if it would cause him to lose all face in the Star Flame Sect, it was better than Ye Qinghan comparing himself to it.    

    

"When thinking about it, I can only wait for Ye Qinghan's Magic Realm Power to fail. When the time comes, I'll have to wear a few vestments, and that's when Ye Qinghan won't be able to compare himself."    

    

Lei Jue's mind flew, not even noticing that Ye Qinghan and Ma Chengliang were walking in front of him, he only blurrily followed the two of them.    

    

...    

    

The Tung Shuang Shan was not higher than four hundred meters. On the road, Ye Qinghan saw many workers who were transporting Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal s, all of them wearing many magic robes, wrapping themselves up like dumplings. But the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal s were all grown in the middle of the cave, so Ye Qinghan and the other two did not see any workers that were mining Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal.    

    

"Jaeger's Castle!"    

    

Ye Qinghan and the other two were looking for the person in charge of the Tung Shuang Shan, which was the owner of the Jaeger's Castle at the peak.    

    

The château was a circular structure shaped like a bunker. There were about a thousand of them, some big and some small. The outer perimeter was a wooden grid that surrounded the château. In front of the entrance, there was a three Zhang wide memorial archway. On it, there was a signboard with the words' Castle of Juniors' written on it. There were two soldiers guarding the entrance.    

    

Ye Qinghan was sure that he had never been to Jaeger's Castle before, but for some reason, he had a feeling in his heart that this Jaeger's Castle was related to him in one way or another. And if he wanted to calculate, then this Jaeger's Castle would be enveloped by a mysterious power, causing Ye Qinghan to be unable to estimate that he had a causal relationship with the Jaeger's Castle.    

    

"Greetings, Sir Star Flame Sect."    

    

In the eyes of the common people, these two soldiers could be considered to be people with high cultivation. With a glance, they recognized Ye Qinghan and the other two people's Star Flame Sect disciple uniforms, and immediately went forward to pay their respects, leading Ye Qinghan and the other two into the Jaeger's Castle.    

    

"Senior-apprentice Brother Ma, when you are outside the sect in the future, you must not be as submissive as you are inside. You must show off your might in order to not ruin the momentum of my Star Flame Sect."    

    

"Yes, yes. Senior Lei's teachings are correct."    

    

Seeing the person from Jaeger's Castle being so respectful to him, not only did Lei Jue smile self-consciously, he even began to lecture Ma Chengliang. Ma Chengliang also felt that being this courteous in Tung Shuang Shan was indeed something one should not be too submissive and lose the aura of a sect.    

    

Merely, Ma Chengliang repeatedly agreeing to Lei Jue's conditions, to Ye Qinghan, wasn't it as if he was dropping his own aura?    

    

Of course, Ye Qinghan wouldn't be like Lei Jue and teach him a lesson, he wanted to have his own momentum. Because in Ye Qinghan's opinion, as long as Ma Chengliang doesn't completely repay the kindness of having his family support him, there's no way he would give up on me or anyone else.    

    

Two soldiers led Ye Qinghan and the other two into the structure with the largest Jaeger's Castle. It was Chu Rizhong's residence, a large round fort with a radius of a few thousand feet. Inside, there were many rooms, and many of Chu Rizhong's wives and children, as well as servants who served him.    

    

"This lowly one's Jaeger's Castle Fortress Master, Chu Rizhong, greets the three Star Flame Sect Envoys."    

    

Chu Rizhong was a dignified middle-aged man with a thick beard on his upper lip that resembled eyebrows. Inside, there was a rectangular table with over 20 chairs on both sides. When Chu Rizhong saw Ye Qinghan and the other two, he immediately went forward to greet them.    

    

"Greetings, young master!"    

    

Although Chu Rizhong was just an ordinary merchant who was in charge of Tung Shuang Shan, and his family could not even compare to a single hair on his body, Chu Rizhong himself was still a Profound Meaning Sovereign Pedestrian. The three of them did not dare to underestimate him.    

    

If this Chu Rizhong was not a Profound Meaning Sovereign Pedestrian, then Ye Qinghan and the other two had a completely different attitude towards him.    

    

But thinking about it, it was impossible. If this Chu Rizhong did not even have a Profound Meaning Stage cultivation level, how could he take control of the Tung Shuang Shan with the tacit approval of all the big and small sects?    

    

Your sect's Alchemy Hall has already told me the number of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal you need this time, all of you, just give me your extraction order and let me confirm it. After you have all the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal prepared, when all of you are here to receive them, just give me your extraction order.    

    

Chu Rizhong laughed and said.    

    

For large sects like Star Flame Sect, the profits left behind for him weren't much. However, there were still some that didn't go too far. As a result, when Ye Qinghan and the other two came to retrieve their Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, Chu Rizhong welcomed them from the bottom of his heart.    

    

"I have a hundred thousand cubes of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal. May I know who you two senior brothers are …?"    

    

Ye Qinghan took out his Extraction Token. The Training Hall was the general manager of the Star Flame Sect refining room, alchemy room, pharmacy, treasure refining room, and so on. Therefore, the two star disciples of the Star Flame Sect hated the Cultivation Hall the most.    

    

Ye Qinghan and the other two did not have much to do since they had come to the Tung Shuang Shan to retrieve the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal. As there were a lot of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal that were needed, the Cultivation Hall would immediately notify Chu Rizhong. After obtaining the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, the Cultivation Hall would also hand over the Space-time Coin that it had purchased to Chu Rizhong.    

    

Therefore, when Ye Qinghan and the other two came to Tung Shuang Shan to retrieve Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, they were basically just a laborer with no other uses.    

    

"I am also a hundred thousand cubes of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal."    

    

"Me too …"    

    

Lei Jue and Ma Chengliang both took out their extraction orders and confirmed it with Chu Rizhong.    

    

"Yes, that's right, there's a total of three hundred thousand cubes of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, the same as what the Alchemy Hall's Sun Deacons needs."    

    

However, Ye Qinghan and the other two could not understand what Chu Rizhong had written on the extraction order. After Chu Rizhong returned the order back to them, Ye Qinghan was also unable to see what Chu Rizhong had written on it.    

    

"To extract these three hundred thousand cubes of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, a total of seventeen days is required. The three envoys can stay at my Jaeger's Castle for a while, and like before, they can also go out to play around. It'll take some time to come back and extract the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal."    

    

After Chu Rizhong said this, he smiled, "If the three High Envoys don't think twice about it, then it's fine to delay it for a few more days. I'll inform the Cultivation Hall that it'll take a few more days."    

    

Lei Jue and Ma Chengliang's expressions were strange, they never thought that after coming to the Tung Shuang Shan, they would know that there was such a thing happening to Star Flame Sect disciples in the past.    

    

"From the glorious experiences of the seniors, the juniors have to go through it themselves."    

    

Lei Jue and Ma Chengliang wanted to let the Star Flame Sect disciples who had come before learn to attend to their Tung Shuang Shan before, but this was the first time Lei Jue had come out to attend to a errand, and he wanted to leave a good impression on his master. Ma Chengliang had always had very little experience himself, so he naturally followed Lei Jue's lead.    

    

"I don't know if the young master of the castle can be a little faster, but I do have some matters to attend to and need to hurry back to the Star Flame Sect. I can't stay here any longer."    

    

Ye Qinghan frowned slightly. Counting the time, it would take seventeen days to extract three hundred thousand cubes of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, so excluding some time to count the number of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal and travel time, it would take at least twenty days to return to the Star Flame Sect.    

    

The Great Competition would start in eighteen days, and it was only the day before the Great Competition would begin that the registration would begin. Which was to say that Ye Qinghan had to rush back to the Star Flame Sect sixteen days later in order to have the time to participate in the Great Competition this time.    

    

"What's the matter, Senior Brother Ye? Why are you in such a hurry?" I wonder if the two of us can help. "    

    

When Ma Chengliang heard that Ye Qinghan had something urgent, he quickly asked.    

    

"Thank you Senior-apprentice Brother Ma for your concern, but Senior-apprentice Brother Ma and Senior Lei can't help with this matter, so there's no need for you two Senior Brothers to worry."    

    

Ye Qinghan knew that Lei Jue looked down on him for being a disciple of the Flame Sect, and if he said that he was prepared to participate in the Great Competition, Lei Jue would definitely not believe him, and might even mock and ridicule him. So in front of Lei Jue, Ye Qinghan didn't go into detail.    

    

"But …"    

    

Ma Chengliang was about to say something, but he was tugged on the corner of his clothes by Lei Jue, and sound transmitted: "Senior Brother Ye definitely has his reasons for not saying it out loud. It might be related to the secret of their Flame Sect, so you should not ask about it, Senior-apprentice Brother Ma. "    

    

Ma Chengliang only stopped after hearing Lei Jue's sound transmission. In fact, Lei Jue felt that it wouldn't be worth it if he owed Ye Qinghan, a disciple of the Yan Sect, the great potential of his Stellar Sect.    

    

Furthermore, Lei Jue still believed that Ye Qinghan was not destined to have any future, and had many requests regarding him, a new star in Stellar Sect. If he were to start this time, after helping Ye Qinghan with some things, Ye Qinghan would most likely look for him again and again in the future.    

    

"No way!"    

    

Chu Ri waited for Ye Qinghan and the other two to finish before saying, "There is a definite limit to the growth of this Frost Crystal. Even if various Supreme Elders from various sects had set up an array formation to help it grow, we cannot increase its growth too fast. Otherwise, it will affect the source of this Frost Crystal. "Thus, Night Envoy, I can only apologize to you in your early days.    

    

Ye Qinghan was embarrassed, but Chu Rizhong rejected him bluntly. If it was in terms of the exploitation of Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal, Ye Qinghan could still request for Chu Rizhong to let the workers of Tung Shuang Shan to work overtime to increase their mining speed. However, Chu Rizhong had directly told Ye Qinghan that the limited growth of the Frostfrost Heavenly Crystal had eliminated the possibility of Ye Qinghan asking the workers to mine more.    

    

And in Chu Rizhong's words, when it came to the almighty elders from the various sects in the Skypalace Starfield, it was impossible for him to lie to Ye Qinghan. The only possibility that Wu Yingying had left behind was that the Star Flame Sect disciples had gone out to play previously and had returned to the Star Flame Sect to refute his words of responsibility.    

    

"Actually, it's not entirely impossible. It's just that I can't help you out in the night. I need to work hard in the night."    

    

Seeing Ye Qinghan's embarrassed expression, Chu Rizhong suddenly realised that when he rejected Ye Qinghan earlier, it was too stiff. Thinking about it, Chu Rizhong did not want to offend Ye Qinghan too much, so he told him about another possibility.
