Chapter 521 The Woman of Destiny, Li Xiangxiang
"What's your name?" Fan Youtong asked as he wrote it down.
"Xu Xiao, the Xiao as in cloud sky."
Having completely turned his mindset around, Xu Xiao carried his hoe and smiled slightly.
"Xu Xiao, an ascendant from the Tianyuan Realm."
The old man stroked his hand, and a halo of light appeared, revealing Xu Xiao's name on a wooden plaque.
He stood up, handed the wooden plaque to the other party, and chuckled, "Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao, I see you have a good ability to adapt; you're definitely good material for mining!"
"Mining is good, and the Yin Yang Immortal Sect will not treat you unfairly."
"The spirits will take what they get. You can keep one percent of the spirit ore you dig, as your reward for mining."
"Don't underestimate this one percent; it can be a considerable income."
"In this Spirit Treasure Immortal Realm, countless cultivators would love to mine here but have no way to do so. This is a special benefit that my Yin Yang Immortal Sect gives to you ascendants!"
Fan Youtong patted Xu Xiao on the shoulder, his old eyes lit up, and he found the handsome young man more and more pleasing to the eye.
His withered hands kept kneading and rubbing; the young man was really handsome!
Wow! Such a strong and fit body?!
good! good!
Xu Xiao stared at the lewd old man, bewildered, and blinked.
Silently taking a step back, she escaped the old man's clutches.
Holy crap... I was thinking that the Lady of Fortune, Ji Xuefeng Qingxuan, might be too beautiful and attract unwanted attention.
Now he's starting to worry about himself!
"Senior is too kind. We ascendants are tempered and refined, so mining is a trivial matter."
With a dashing smile, he showed no fear.
With a top-tier talisman in hand, anyone who dares to act recklessly will be blasted to pieces.
Fan Youtong clenched his fingers regretfully and led Xu Xiao out of the main hall.
On the way, he smiled and took out a blue booklet, saying to Xu Xiao, "Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao, this is a summary of the Immortal Realm that I have compiled. It details some basic common knowledge about the Immortal Realm."
"It's perfect for you ascendants; it will definitely be helpful."
Xu Xiao's eyes lit up. This was a good thing. The old man was a bit lewd, but he was also a kind-hearted person.
"Thank you, senior." Xu Xiao was about to accept it.
"It's not free."
"what?"
Fan Youtong chuckled lewdly, “Ten thousand low-grade spirit essences? You ascendants are all top-tier cultivators in the lower realms. Ten thousand low-grade spirit essences are nothing to you.”
"If it's not enough, you can pay me back. I'll give it to you after mining for a few months. I'm a very humane person."
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you, low-grade spiritual essence is the same as the top-grade spiritual stone in your Tianyuan Realm."
Xu Xiao rolled his eyes.
Damn it, old man, you're selling a book for 10,000 top-grade spirit stones?
This can actually be bought with a loan?
What a swindler... specializing in ripping off newbies who are about to ascend.
However, he was still in a good mood, since top-grade spirit stones could be used in the Immortal Realm and should be equivalent to low-grade spirit essence.
With a slight smile, he took out 20,000 top-grade spirit stones and put them into his storage bag. He currently had over 5 million of these.
"Twenty thousand low-grade spirit essences, the extra one is given to you as a small gift."
We can't send too many.
Before you figure out the situation in the Immortal Realm, it's best to keep a low profile.
Fan Youtong's eyes lit up. He took the storage bag, counted the contents, and handed the booklet to Xu Xiao.
"Hehe! I knew Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao was extraordinary; he truly is remarkable!"
“Excellent, excellent! I am Fan Youtong, an outer elder of the Yin Yang Immortal Sect who manages the mining area. If you encounter any trouble while mining, you can come to me.”
"However, fellow Daoist, you can rest assured that my Yin Yang Immortal Sect is a righteous immortal sect in the Spirit Treasure Immortal Realm. We do not do anything that harms heaven and reason. As long as you mine honestly, there will be no problem."
In high spirits, the old man found the handsome young man increasingly pleasing to the eye.
Know how to do things!
Xu Xiao naturally wouldn't give it away for nothing. He put the booklet away and asked, "Senior Fan, did our Tianyuan Realm have two ascendants a few years ago? I wonder if these two people are still in the mining area?"
"They're all acquaintances from the Tianyuan Realm; it'll be good to have someone to look after us."
Fan Youtong chuckled, having already guessed that the other party would inquire.
After carefully putting away the spirit stones, he sighed and said, "Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao, those two ascendants from your Tianyuan Realm are no ordinary people!"
"Six months ago, a few inner sect elders from my Yin Yang Immortal Sect came to inspect the area and immediately took a liking to those two female cultivators from your Tianyuan Realm."
“They are all exceptionally talented cultivators, and they have already joined the inner sect of my Yin Yang Immortal Sect.”
Xu Xiao was taken aback. "Huh? You've already joined your sect?"
Realizing what he had said, he continued, "What are your names?"
Fan Youtong laughed and said, "I've long forgotten about most ascendants, but I still remember these two."
“One of them is named Feng Qingxuan. His appearance and temperament are extraordinary. He caused a sensation as soon as he arrived at the spirit mine. Disciples came one after another to ask to become his Yin-Yang Daoist partners.”
"Some people even came all the way from their sects to the spirit mine specifically to encounter Feng Qingxuan, which alarmed the inner sect elders."
"However, I later heard that he did not find a Daoist partner, but instead became a disciple of Elder Qingluan."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled inwardly, thinking that he had been mining for at least a year and a half.
Fan Youtong continued, "There is another one named Liu Aihua. Although she looks ordinary, her figure is amazing, and she is very popular among the disciples."
"However, he did not find a Daoist partner, but instead became a disciple of Elder Yaoguang."
Xu Xiao was dumbfounded, "Liu Aihua?"
The two had already reached the outside of the main hall.
The main hall of the Qing Shi sect was built on a verdant mountaintop, surrounded by several teams of Yin Yang Immortal Sect disciples dressed in white short shirts who patrolled the area.
Looking across the mountain, there are huge mines gleaming with the light of spirit stones.
Inside, countless cultivators were digging with hoes, sweating profusely, a sight clearly visible.
Xu Xiao blinked. The spiritual mines in this Immortal Realm were vast, far surpassing those in the Tianyuan Realm.
He now suspects that this Liu Aihua is actually Ji Xue, and that her appearance is a disguise.
However, there is no evidence, so I will only make a note of it for now.
A surge of spiritual energy emanated from the blue stone hall behind them. Fan Youdao said, "Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao, I won't say any more. Ascendants from other realms should be arriving."
"Hey, Xiao Zhou, Xiao Chen, you two take Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao to Mining Team Number 146."
"Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao is a friend of this elder, and should not be neglected."
Two young disciples in white robes stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Yes, Elder."
Each of the giant spirit mines is estimated to have tens of thousands of miners, and above the mines are rows of accommodations for cultivators.
Xu Xiao already had a plan in mind regarding Xiao Zhou and Xiao Chen's sword-flying training.
My primary goal now is to enter the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect for cultivation.
Once he joins a sect, that becomes his specialty.
There are definitely plenty of lucky women out there; just send them off one by one.
It's best to find a powerful master to rely on, preferably a woman of good fortune, so that it's convenient to give gifts.
"Okay."
Xu Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
However, we must inform the women of destiny in the lower realms not to ascend.
It's not too late for him to ascend after he has completely established himself in the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect; otherwise, he's destined to become a miner.
“Fellow Daoist Xu Xiao, Mining Team No. 146 is resting in the host area. You can get to know them.”
"Excuse me, you two."
Xiao Zhou and Xiao Chen were quite polite throughout the journey.
They were all Mahayana cultivators of the Yin Yang Immortal Sect, outer disciples, and did not hold high positions in the sect. They came to work as patrol members to earn spiritual essence.
In the residential area with its numerous courtyards, there was a small mansion. Xiao Zhou and Xiao Chen led Xu Xiao inside.
Nine monks were resting in the courtyard, led by a burly man with a thick beard.
Xu Xiao's divine sense swept over the giant man, who was undergoing the ninth level of tribulation.
All nine men had sweat on their foreheads and were sitting on the ground panting, clearly having just returned from mining.
Xu Xiao sighed inwardly, "The spirit ore in the Immortal Realm is really tough. Look how exhausted these Transcending Tribulation Mahayana cultivators are..."
[Detected: Li Xiangxiang, the woman of destiny]
[Luck Level: C]
Return multiplier: 10
[Bond Level: 1]
"Oh?"
Before he could speak, Xu Xiao heard the system's voice in his ear.
Following the system's guidance, one could see a young woman in a tight black dress squatting on the ground, resting.
The woman's fair and delicate skin contrasted sharply with her black dress.
Her face was charming and beautiful, her figure was slender and graceful beneath her skirt, with a willow-like waist and a delicate, supple appearance.
Her black hair was beautiful, her pretty forehead glistening with sweat, radiating youthful energy.
She was a pretty and charming woman in her early twenties.
She didn't care about Xu Xiao and the other two who came in; her beautiful eyes only showed a hint of annoyance and helplessness as she sighed.
I'm so tired, how much longer will this mining operation last...?
