Gu Dongchen smiled and said, "That's right. I came to tell you that we old guys just came back from the Hundred Thousand Demon Mountains and confirmed what you said. There is indeed a crack there, and there are many little evil demons coming over."
"So the formation outside the Hundred Thousand Demon Mountains is no longer useful?" Shen Xiang didn't expect it to lose its effect so quickly.
"Yes, we have been guarding outside for a long time! The crack is quite big, but it releases a strange power to prevent some powerful evil monsters from the demon world from coming over. However, there are so many small evil monsters coming over that we can't kill them all even if we kill them for several days."
Gu Dongchen looked helpless: "So we have no choice but to come back and wait for the strong men from other continents to arrive, and then work together to seal the small crack, otherwise the Hundred Thousand Demon Mountains will be filled with those little evil monsters!"
"Are those evil monsters staying inside the Demon Mountain and not coming out?" Shen Xiang had seen the scene of densely packed evil monsters gathered together. He secretly despised the strength of Gu Dongchen and the others. They had been killing for several days but still couldn't deal with them. But Bai Ziqian solved all of them with just one move that day.
Gu Dongchen frowned and said, "They won't come out for the time being, because they just came here and seem to be seriously injured. They are absorbing the magic energy in the Hundred Thousand Demon Mountains to recover, so we have to quickly block the crack."
Several powerful sect leaders could not kill all the evil monsters even after several days. It can be seen that there are so many evil monsters, and they will come back again after they die, so it is endless.
Chen Xiang grinned: "Little brat, did you come to me just to tell me this?"
Gu Dongchen smiled and said a little embarrassedly: "Of course, but there is one small thing I hope Junior Uncle can help you with. You should know that many powerful masters have come from overseas, bringing many of their proud disciples with them. They are not only here to participate in the Hero Conference, but also to show off!"
Shen Xiang sneered.
"Those guys have a very good relationship with Xiao Ziliang. It is very likely that Xiao Ziliang established this relationship when he traveled around the continents. They were all instigated by Xiao Ziliang to let their disciples challenge our Taiwu Sect disciples one after another. Most of our Taiwu Sect disciples went to fight. Although some won and some lost, the majority of them won."
Chen Xiang curled his lips and said: "You want me to fight so that you can gain some face?"
Gu Dongchen laughed and said, "Of course not, but to bring honor to the entire Taiwu Sect!"
Chen Xiang pouted: "Little brat, if I were you, I would order you not to fight. Now the situation is critical, but you still want to save face. Otherwise, I will ask my master to go out and beat those arrogant masters back to their continents one by one. Let's see how arrogant they are."
Invite Huang Jintian out? That would cause chaos in the world, which made Gu Dongchen shudder.
Seeing Gu Dongchen's sad face, Shen Xiang, as his uncle, of course had to help his nephew save some face, but he didn't want to fight.
"Little brat, don't you just want to show off? That's easy. Aren't those guys from overseas also in short supply of Foundation Establishment Pills?" Shen Xiang said with a smile, his eyes flashing with a cunning light, which made Gu Dongchen tremble with fear. He knew that he was going to be in trouble.
Gu Dongchen nodded: "Since ancient times, foundation-building pills have been in short supply in this mortal martial world."
"I have eighty Foundation Establishment Pills on hand, I will sell them all to you! Then you can take them out and show off in front of them, which will make you feel very happy." Shen Xiang said with a smile.
It would indeed be very cool, and Gu Dongchen felt happy just thinking about it, but the problem was that he had to buy those Foundation Establishment Pills. He couldn't understand why Shen Xiang had as many Foundation Establishment Pills as peanuts, dozens of them at once, and it was rare to have just a few pills at other times.
"Junior Master, can you lend it to me to show off? This will let others know the strength of our Taiwu Sect. I will return it to you when the time comes." Gu Dongchen said with a smile. He definitely would not want to buy it, because Shen Xiang would definitely rip him off.
Chen Xiang smiled and shook his head: "But I can rent it to you for one million crystal stones a day."
Gu Dongchen cursed secretly in his heart. One million crystal stones were nothing to him, but he was a very stingy person. He would feel heartbroken no matter how much it was.
"For the glory of Taiwu Sect, little brat, you should make some sacrifices!" Shen Xiang said with a smile.
"Okay, give it to me!" Gu Dongchen gritted his teeth and made a firm decision not to seek cooperation with Shen Xiang next time. Ever since this junior uncle found out that he was a rich man, he had been thinking of various ways to steal his crystal stone.
Shen Xiang took out a relatively large jade box, which contained many pills emitting green light. These were eighty Foundation Building Pills. Although they looked like many glowing beans, they made people feel shocked. After all, so many Foundation Building Pills were extremely rare!
"It's worth it!" Gu Dongchen's eyes reflected those dazzling situations. Looking at these foundation-building pills that looked like emeralds, he exclaimed in admiration, closed the lid of the jade box, and hurried away.
After Chen Xiang sent Gu Dongchen away, he smiled and said, "One million crystal stones a day. I have been hiding for a year or so, and I can earn one million crystal stones every day. It's worth it!"
If Gu Dongchen knew that Shen Xiang had this idea from the beginning, he would never make this deal even if he was beaten to death.
"You little rascal, you are really bad enough. He is your junior uncle!" Su Meiyao said with a giggle.
"What are you afraid of? As an elder, of course I have to discipline him and teach him a lesson. It's his fault for loving to be in the limelight so much!" Shen Xiang said with a smile and continued to busy himself with his work.
Ten days passed, and Shen Xiang stayed in the secret room. He knew that Wu Qianqian had been there, and he guessed that it was Gu Dongchen who asked Wu Qianqian to find him, but he just hid on purpose. The longer the time, the more crystals he got.
For two months, Shen Xiang has been taking care of the medicinal herbs every day. Although his small medicine garden is small, the spiritual herbs in it are very precious. The white jade lotus seeds, the main medicinal ingredient of Xiao Huan Dan, the Nine Yang Fiery Fruit Tree, the Qingxuan Fruit Tree, etc., these are all very rare varieties. Any alchemist who sees them will be scared and wish to die here.
Shen Xiang discovered something very surprising, that is, the soil here has mutated after absorbing his golden ambergris for a long time, which can speed up the growth of spiritual medicines and absorb a large amount of spiritual energy by itself.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to irrigate a large spiritual field!" Shen Xiang said excitedly. He now grew a lot of medicinal materials for refining the Five Elements True Essence Pill, a total of more than ten. He refined twelve furnaces and failed twice, which made him a little sad, but he was still satisfied.
"Now I have 150 Five Elements True Essence Pills!"
Shen Xiang looked at those exquisite pills and smiled triumphantly. These past few days, he had been taking care of the spiritual medicine every day, then practicing alchemy, practicing martial arts, and chatting with Long Xueyi, Su Meiyao, and Bai Youyou. This peaceful life made him feel very comfortable and was also a kind of relaxation for him.
"It's time to collect the debt!" Shen Xiang smiled and opened the door of Taidan Royal Courtyard, only to see Gu Dongchen standing at the door with a sad face. Only a guy like Shen Xiang would dare to be so cruel to the headmaster of Taiwu Sect!
"Junior Master, I know I was wrong!" Gu Dongchen's handsome face was full of bitterness. He certainly knew that this was Shen Xiang punishing him on purpose.
