Chapter 71 Lei Yuan Stone


Chapter 71 Lei Yuan Stone

The confrontation between the remaining forces in the barony and the local forces in Huojiabao continues, and as the cold moon approaches, it becomes increasingly fierce.

The noise heard on the street that day was said to be the work of Master Huo Bao.

There were also super-level masters on the Baronial side, and the two sides ended up in a fight at the mouth of the mountain. More than a hundred people who were only level 4 or above died.

Everyone knows that the arrival of the cold moon is a critical node.

As for the development of the situation, a turning point should be coming soon.

There isn't much time left!

"Peng!"

"Peng!"

"Woo..."

In the tree house, Zhou Jia was naked from the waist up, holding an ax in one hand and a shield in the other. He used the shield and ax staggeredly, and the afterimages brought about the faint sound of thunder.

His eyes were fixed, and his body moved with the axe, sweat sliding down his back as his muscles squirmed.

The solid ground became more and more solid after countless heavy blows, and the flat walls were cut with countless scratches of varying depths by the ax wind.

"Huchi...huchi..."

Heavy breathing, accompanied by pouring sweat.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Jia stopped what he was doing, picked up the towel on the side and wiped his body casually before walking out of the room.

Not long after, he returned again, with the latest news from Heilian in his hand.

"Too dark!"

"The news that used to be sent once every half month is now divided into five times, and the price is the same as before. Black Lotus really knows how to do business."

Having said that, money has to be spent.

After all, he didn't have many channels to get external news, and the situation had changed too quickly recently, so he could only pay as much attention as possible.

There wasn't much news, but it made him frown.

‘There are more and more fights between the two sides, from one every three or five days to two or three a day, but fewer and fewer people are dying. ’

‘This is wrong! ’

"Da da..."

Tapping the paper, Zhou Jia was thoughtful.

In addition to Heilian, he also had some channels in the Fish and Dragon Society. After summarizing the news from both sides, he had a guess in his mind.

"The people in the barony do not want to fight with Huojiabao!"

"This is normal. After all, in terms of strength and foundation, the baronies who have trekked here are not as good as Huojiabao. Unless they want to defeat the enemy, they must find a way out."

"Leaving here and going somewhere else is the only option."

"But there are so many people outside, and the dangers on the road are not mentioned for the time being. Just the food and drink every day is an astronomical figure."

"So..."

"Food!"

Zhou Jia's eyes lit up.

‘The purpose of the barony is not to occupy Huojiabao, and it is even more impossible to join. Huojiabao is too small to support so many people, so their purpose is food. ’

'With the determination to kill the fish and break the net, force Huojiabao to spit out enough food, so that they can leave...'

"Whoosh!"

With his thoughts turning, he suddenly stood up, picked up his money bag and ran to the market.

Regardless of whether this guess is correct or not, it is better to stock up on enough food in advance just in case.

At this time in previous years, the price of food and meat had already begun to rise. Now with the threat of the barony, the price increase is even more exaggerated.

fortunately.

Zhou Jia has no shortage of Origin Stones.

In the next few days, in order not to attract attention, he purchased enough food in batches for several months.

In order to ensure safety, in addition to the tree house, some are also hidden in several hidden places for backup.

…………

Name: Zhou Jia

Cultivation level: Sixth-grade mortal level marrow cutting (1831/8000)

Source Star: Tianying Star (Trait: Handling Weapons), Earth Star (Trait: Violence)

Gongfa: Introduction to Three Yuan Zhengfa (246/300)

Martial skills: Shield Anti-Perfection (997/1000), Shield Strike Proficiency (365/500), Wind Splitting Ax Mastery (956/1200), Nar Secret Breath Technique Introduction (161/200), Death Sword Proficiency (576/ 1000), Thunder Ax Proficiency (389/1500), Three Body Steps (125/600)

As time goes by, the proficiency in martial arts is getting higher and higher, but the progress in cultivation is slow. It seems that it will be difficult to reach the seventh level in three to five years.

Unless, get another Source Star.

The other thing is that Shield Counter is approaching the Great Perfection, but for some reason it is getting harder and harder to progress, and the last few proficiency levels are not increasing at all.

Fortunately, he was able to hold back his temper, take his time and cultivate slowly.

"Da da..."

A knock on the door made Zhou Jia stop.

After wiping himself, he opened a crack in the door. The cold wind drifted into the tree house along the crack, making his skin filled with heat instantly tense.

Although the cold moon has not yet arrived, the cold air has already begun to appear.

"Heisan, it's you." Seeing the figure outside the door clearly, Zhou Jia opened the door slightly:

"Is something wrong?"

Because of his lack of care in taking care of such a large mine, almost all of them were Liu Ziyang's people. Only Hei San could barely be considered a confidant.

"Supervisor."

Hei San rubbed his hands and smiled flatteringly:

"You haven't been to the mines for a while."

"It's okay if you go." Zhou Jia shook his head. There was so much food in his house, what if the space he left was stolen?

"Why, Deputy Director Liu bullied you?"

"No, no." Hei San waved his hands repeatedly:

"With you in charge, how can I be bullied? This is what you want me to inquire about. There is news."

"Oh!" Zhou Jia's eyes lit up and he opened the door:

"Thunderite ore?"

Ore containing spirituality is extremely rare, not even in Baibao Pavilion. He almost gave up, but he didn't expect to have a clue.

"That's right." Hei San nodded:

"Although it is not a mine ore, its uses are the same."

Without prompting Zhou Jia, he continued:

"The villain found out that a few years ago, the inner hall acquired the bones of a thunder beast. I heard that the thing was a super monster before it was alive."

"There is a thunder element stone in the bones, which contains the essence of thunder. Unfortunately, it is not active enough, so the price from the temple was too low and it was not sold."

"It should still be in the inner hall now."

Various spiritual objects are excellent materials for making ‘staffs’, and they are often not missed in the temple.

As for the lack of activity...

For the 'Temple Mage', it is naturally an irreparable flaw, but it is not a big problem for him to use it to bless the axe.

"Seriously?"

"How dare a villain deceive the supervisor?"

Black Three swears:

"This thing is useless. It has probably been forgotten. I also found out about it from a friend in the inner hall."

"But..."

"The people in the inner hall all get into the cracks of money. You are afraid that some blood will come out."

"That's no problem!" Zhou Jia smiled:

"Thank you."

…………

The inner hall has a bad reputation in the Fish and Dragon Society. Zhou Jia has heard about this for a long time, but only when he came in person and saw the sparse crowds of people did he truly experience the so-called neglect.

"Lei Yuan Stone?"

One person flipped through the book for a long time, and after Zhou Jia handed over dozens of dollars, he nodded and said:

"Director Xu is responsible for this. Go find him."

"Who is Director Xu?"

"It's really troublesome." The other party pointed inward with an impatient look:

"That one!"

"Good work."

Although the other party had a bad attitude, Zhou Jia still raised his hand to express his gratitude.

Manager Xu looked to be in his thirties or forties. He should have been in his prime, but he looked old-fashioned. He was wearing a long gown and sitting on a soft chair, squinting and sipping tea.

"Lei Yuan Stone?"

He took out a dusty book from the drawer, opened one of the pages, and nodded slowly:

"It is indeed still there."

"But this thing not only requires the purchase of Origin Stones, but also requires a great achievement before it can be redeemed."

Zhou Jia glanced at the booklet and saw the Lei Yuan Stone written on it. The requirements were: one great achievement and one hundred Origin Stones, which could not be exchanged by ordinary members.

“I don’t know how to calculate this great merit?”

"As the name suggests, he naturally contributed a lot to the gang." Manager Xu picked up the tea cup and said with a smile:

"Of course, if you can have the handwriting of the elders and hall masters, you can avoid it, but this Source Stone is absolutely unavoidable."

"This way..." Zhou Jia said in deep thought:

"Then I'll come back in a few days."

"How many days to wait?" Manager Xu shook his head gently:

"This thing is a hot commodity. I'm afraid someone will take it away in a few days. Don't say I didn't remind you then."

Um?

Are you serious?

This thing hasn't been sold for several years, and it suddenly becomes a hot commodity?

Zhou Jia was speechless, shook his head and handed over an Origin Stone:

“I’m thinking of you, Manager Xu, if you can help me. I’ll pick it up in two days.”

"Yeah."

Director Xu nodded and collected the origin stone casually.

When Zhou Jia left, a person in charge of the inner hall next to him smiled and said:

"Director Xu, it seems you have another big customer?"

"Hehe..." Manager Xu chuckled and drank tea with an indifferent expression:

"I don't know how many benefits he can have. The things in the inner hall cannot be taken out casually."

As he said that, he stroked the row of Lei Yuan Stone heavily. (End of chapter)
