"Father, I will definitely not let you down." Ye Xingchen looked at his father's aged face and said loudly.

A hundred years ago, Ye Family was originally the number one family in the empire, but because they were unaware of the situation, they actually suffered from a calamity. In the end, only their grandfather escaped, and then, he hid within the Heavenly River Town to establish his Ye Family.

Now, with the development of these years, Ye Family had gradually become one of the The Three Forces. But in the end, it was still a power from outside, and they were often suppressed by the Bai Family and Li Family.

Looking at his father's pale face, Ye Xingchen secretly swore to himself that he would definitely become stronger, and this way, he would be able to help his Ye Family.

After that, Ye Xingchen chatted a lot with his father and finally, Ye Hu gave him three Spiritual Pill.

Spiritual Pill s could make a martial artist's Spiritual Strength even denser, and had twice the results with half the effort. It could also be considered a hard currency for Martial Soul Empire, and in normal circumstances, it would only be used to exchange money.

There were a lot of Spiritual Pill in the beginning, but after experiencing the great tribulation, the number of Spiritual Pill became fewer and fewer. All these years, they relied on their businesses in the Heavenly River Town to barely be used by the clan's young generation.

The clan rules stated that warriors who reached Sixth Level of Body Refinement could obtain one Spiritual Pill every month for cultivation.

On the other hand, practitioners of Seventh Level of Body Refinement could obtain three Spiritual Pill for cultivation. Spiritual Pill s contained a small amount of Spiritual Strength, and although it was a small amount, it was still beneficial for cultivators.

Ye Xingchen withdrew the three Spiritual Pill, and after bidding farewell to his father, Ye Hu, he returned back to his room to study the Spiritual Pill.

Ye Xingchen sat crossed legged in his room, holding a Spiritual Pill in his right hand. He activated Spiritual Strength and guided the Spiritual Strength inside the Spiritual Pill to slowly absorb it into his dantian.

And at that moment, the Yin-yang Fish's dantian started to spin, in a blink of an eye, the Spiritual Pill in Ye Xingchen's hand turned into powder.

"Hmm? Didn't they say that warriors couldn't completely absorb the Spiritual Strength from the Spiritual Pill? Why can I completely absorb it? " Ye Xingchen looked at the powder in his hand doubtfully, and muttered to himself.

Ye Xingchen knew that only if he could completely absorb the Spiritual Strength would the Spiritual Pill shatter.

Thinking about it for a moment, Ye Xingchen understood that it should be because of his Yin-yang Fish's dantian.

The Yin-yang Fish's Dantian that was frantically spinning, had already stopped.

Ye Xingchen took out the second Spiritual Pill and continued to cultivate. As expected, the second Spiritual Pill also instantly turned into powder.

At the same time, Ye Xingchen's cultivation had also increased by quite a bit. The Spiritual Strength in his dantian was extremely dense, and he had already faintly reached the middle stage of the Seventh Level of Body Refinement, just as he was about to step into the late stage of the Seventh Level of Body Refinement.

Just this little bit of cultivation was already comparable to Ye Xingchen's three days of bitter cultivation. This made Ye Xingchen extremely happy, and at the same time, extremely worried.

Giving three Spiritual Pill in a month was not enough for cultivation.

"I have to think of a way to earn Spiritual Pill." Ye Xingchen thought.

Just as Ye Xingchen was thinking of a way, Wu told Ye Xingchen that the little lion in the Martial God Realm was evolving.

Ye Xingchen entered the War God's Space and looked at Xiao Shi who was evolving. Xiao Shi also looked at Ye Xingchen pitifully.

"Let's go, I'll take you to Ghost Valley." After Ye Xingchen finished speaking, he brought Little Lion and walked out of the Martial God Dimension.

Ye Xingchen used two hours to easily enter the Ghost Valley, and then placed Xiao Shi inside the inner circle.

"Xiao Shi, there's still some time before you advance, you should stay in Ghost Valley for the next few days, and come pick you up after the competition is over." Ye Xingchen also knew that the little lion was a Demonic Beast, its bones containing the battle blood. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been left alone in the Ghost Valley.

After placing the little lion inside the Ghost Valley, Ye Xingchen then returned to the Heavenly River Town.

Ye Xingchen was not worried about Xiao Shi's safety at all. Xiao Shi was already able to kill Level Eight Demonic Beast at level 6, and after levelling up this time, the level 9 Demonic Beast was probably not its match. Moreover, in the entire inner circle, there were only a few level 9 Demonic Beast, so it was basically not a threat to the little lion.

When Ye Xingchen returned to the Heavenly River Town, it was already noon. After finishing his lunch, Ye Xingchen secretly entered the Posterior Mountain.

Ye Family s, this was a mineral resource of the Ye Family, and was also one of the main properties of the Ye Family, generally speaking, no one was allowed to enter.

Ye Xingchen had also heard his father say that this place was a mineral, and that his Spiritual Pill was not enough to use, so he planned to secretly enter the mining area to find ores to exchange for some Spiritual Pill s.

After entering the depths of the Posterior Mountain, one could already see the mining area with the naked eye. At the entrance of the mining area, there were two disciples of the clan standing guard.

Ye Xingchen swaggered to the entrance of the mine area and glanced at the two gatekeepers.

"Young master, this is the forbidden Ye Family area, we cannot enter without the Patriarch's order." One of the guards said as he saw Ye Xingchen.

"It was the chief who asked me to come take a look at the mining site's production situation. I'll be leaving after a look." Ye Xingchen said while laughing.

"But …"

Without waiting for the guard to finish speaking, Ye Xingchen said in a stern voice: "Do you dare to question the Patriarch's decision?"

The two guards thought for a bit, but Ye Xingchen didn't care, since they were core disciples of Ye Family, they allowed Ye Xingchen to enter the mining area.

After Ye Xingchen entered the mining area, he saw a lot of mining workers.

Ye Xingchen circled around these mining workers, and then found a place where no one was around to start his exploration.

This was a piece of black iron ore, and it was filled with black iron stones. It was also a huge industry that had supported Ye Family for so many years.

And the Bai Li and Li Family had joined hands to suppress the Ye Family because they wanted to occupy the darksteel area of the Ye Family.

Ye Xingchen carefully probed the ores in the mine area. In front of him was a small path, and it was extremely dark so he couldn't even see his fingers.

Ye Xingchen carefully walked along this small path, and slowly walked down.

Suddenly, Ye Xingchen saw a spot of light, an extremely weak light.

Ye Xingchen followed the light, and when he approached the light, he saw a rock emitting a faint light.

Ye Xingchen activated Spiritual Strength, using it to surround his surroundings, preventing him from making any sounds.

Following that, Ye Xingchen took out the glowing stone and held it in his hand.

"This is?" Could it be a Night Light Stone? " Ye Xingchen's face revealed a slight smile. Although Night Light Rocks weren't as precious as Profound Iron Rocks, they could still be exchanged for a few Spiritual Pill and stored the Night Light Rocks in the Martial God's dimension.

Ye Xingchen continued to explore. Although this was still a mining area for Mysterious Iron Stones, it was not easy to find them. Otherwise, his Ye Family would have been advanced a long time ago.

Ye Xingchen felt that he had already went underground, it was extremely deep, it was completely dark here, but with Ye Xingchen's eyesight, there was no problem with it.

Ye Xingchen carefully felt the Qi around the mines, and suddenly, he felt a scorching Qi beneath his feet.

Ye Xingchen anxiously checked his feet, taking the stones away, then he started to clean up the surrounding stones.

As Ye Xingchen had taken a detour down an uninhabited path, under normal circumstances, no one would come here.

After a while, Ye Xingchen cleared out a large hole and discovered a fiery-red stone. Ye Xingchen carefully observed it for a while, but did not know what kind of stone it was.

After a while, they found another rock, and this hole was already deeper than Ye Xingchen.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xingchen found a few more fiery-red rocks, and the lower he went, the more Ye Xingchen could sense an extremely scorching aura, and it felt as if there was a sea of fire below him.

In a short span of time, Ye Xingchen had already collected fifteen fiery-red rocks. Below him, Ye Xingchen could clearly feel that it was scorching hot, and his forehead was full of sweat.

Finally, when Ye Xingchen finished collecting the thirtieth Fiery Red Stone, he saw a trace of lava beneath his feet.

"How is this possible? There's magma below this black iron mine? " Ye Xingchen was a little shocked, he anxiously jumped out of the hole, with his current strength, if he fell into the lava, he would die.

Ye Xingchen stored the fiery-red stone inside the lava, walked out of the mining area, and returned home.

"Should I tell Father?" In the end, Ye Xingchen decided that he would tell his father, Grandfather, and the others after the Family Competition.

The most important thing right now was to sell these fiery-red stones in exchange for some Spiritual Pill to cultivate.

Ye Xingchen thought about Underground Exchange.

Ye Xingchen was wearing a bamboo hat, making it difficult to see his appearance. When he arrived at the Underground Exchange, he was greeted by a beautiful woman, exactly the same as last time.

"Selling ores." Ye Xingchen said in a low voice, and was then led by the beautiful woman to an extremely secretive room.

In this room, there was only a stool and a table. A White-Haired Old Man sat there silently.

"Uncle Liu, this guest wants to sell the ores." The alluring woman said tenderly.

"Hmm? What kind of ore do you want to sell? " Uncle Liu said lazily.

"That's it." Ye Xingchen took out a Night Light Stone from the Martial God Realm and placed it on the table.

"Night Light Stone, hmm, not bad, a Spiritual Pill."

"Sure, deal."

White-Haired Old Man passed a Spiritual Pill to Ye Xingchen, and Ye Xingchen passed a Night Light Stone to the old man.

"Is there anything else?" White-Haired Old Man looked at Ye Xingchen with a beaming smile, wanting to clearly see his appearance.

Ye Xingchen lowered his head and covered his face with his bamboo hat. Then, he suddenly took out a fiery-red stone and placed it on the table.

"Ah?" Pyroxene? It's actually the Pyroxene! " When White-Haired Old Man saw the fiery-red rock, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright. Even the eyes of the bewitching beauty started to shine.

Actually, Ye Xingchen only wanted to give it a try, to see if White-Haired Old Man would know anything about this fiery-red stone.

Although Ye Xingchen did not understand Pyroxene, from the old man's expression, he knew that Pyroxene should be very precious.
