Chapter 2494: Departure

ismissive within her cage, but in reality, she had seen everything at the auction.This man in front of me spent a full fifty million high-grade spirit crystals to buy himself back. Could he really jus...Those around who were watching the commotion also rushed over, each one looking bewildered.

"What's this guy doing Going into that cave, isn't that asking for trouble"

"That's right, the cave is a dead end. There's no way to escape. It's like being trapped in a cauldron..."

"Is this guy crazy What does he even want"

Bai Li Xingkong led the people to the cave entrance, and as soon as they got there, a naked man flew out. It was Prince Bai Li Hongjun.

And just like the last two times, all her clothes were stripped off her, and even her storage ring was taken away.

"Damn, I'm going to see where you run this time!"

Bai Li Xing had been holding back his anger for a long time, and at this moment, he was no longer polite. The long sword in his hand burst out with dozens of meters of sword light and slashed fiercely towards the small hill.

His cultivation had reached a level where moving mountains and splitting rivers was as easy as breathing. With this single sword strike, he cleaved the small mountain in two, even splitting the cave in half.

If an ordinary person were struck by this sword, they would surely die.

But that robed man had created too many miracles before, no one was sure what this time would be like. All eyes turned towards the broken mountain.

The result was utterly empty. There wasn't a single person in sight, nor even a drop of blood. It was obvious that the sword strike just moments ago hadn't harmed the opponent at all.

"Damn, where the hell did this guy go"

The enraged Bai Li Xingkong waved his sword again and again, slashing out continuously. In the blink of an eye, he razed the small hill before him to the ground.

Even so, there were still no results. I didn't see a trace of the robed man.

"Didn't this guy just run off But how did he get away"

The onlookers were amazed, again and again, no one could see through what means the other party was using.

The Elder arrived before Bai Li Xingkong, “Your Highness, do you think that boy had set up a teleportation array inside the cave beforehand”

"Impossible! Teleportation arrays create spatial fluctuations, there's no way we wouldn't have noticed anything here!"

Elder Two said, “Could he have a magic treasure like a spatial small world”

"Impossible. Even if he entered the spatial world, I would still be able to sense him under my divine consciousness," Bai Li Xingkong shook his head.

"This..."

Now everyone around was completely dumbfounded. It wasn't this or that, but the other party just ran away. What kind of skill was this

Being repeatedly tricked three times, Bai Li Xing Kong was furious. He couldn't see through the other party's tricks, which made him incredibly angry.

"Let's go!"

Having had experience from the last two times, he knew that offering a reward again would be useless. Even if he dug three feet deep, he wouldn't find them.

Within the palace, Bai Li Xingyun's face was extremely grim.

"Did that guy run away again"

"That damn thing used some kind of trick, it just came and went without a trace," Bai Li Xingkong said with frustration on his face.

Bai Li Xing clapped his hand heavily on the table: "Being played with again and again, this mockery of my Shenglong Royal Family. Who the hell is this person"

Suddenly, Bai Li Xing Kong felt a jolt in his heart. Every time he went to the relay station to deal with Ye Bufan, the prince would be kidnapped. Could there be a connection between the two

He then shook his head, it must have been his overthinking. Now that Ye Bufan was dead, there shouldn't be any connection to this matter anymore.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. I will sleep with Jun'er tonight to ensure his safety."

"Tomorrow I will enter the tenth floor of the Heavenly Ascension Tower, so there's no need to worry about that guy for a while."

Li Bai walked nodded, as things stood, there was no other way.

If Bai Li Hongjun is kidnapped again, not to mention his face, they can't even afford the ransom.

In the Dragon King's Hall, Ye Bufan sat on the Dragon King Island, looking at the top-grade spirit stones before him, a smile that could not be concealed on his face.

I originally thought this thing would be very difficult to handle, but unexpectedly, I managed to get so much done by sheer luck.

Now, he had a total of three hundred and five Spirit Stones before him. That should be enough for him to advance to the middle stage of the Void Core Realm.

He held a spirit stone in his hand. Its spiritual energy was rich, but it still felt inferior to the golden energy within Xuanyuan Zhantian's body by a level.

What kind of seal was on that old man, and where did it come from Everything about it felt strange.

But everyone has their own secrets, and one shouldn't pry into them if they don't choose to share.

He received all three hundred and five top-grade spirit stones in front of him, then he began to meditate cross-legged, preparing to break through to the middle stage of the Void Core.

I'm about to enter the Tenth Order Sky Piercing Tower. I don't know what's inside yet, so all I can do is improve my cultivation as much as possible.

The chaotic true qi circulated slowly, and immediately, it was like opening a valve. The whole person was like an abyss, drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy like a tidal wave.

After an unknown amount of time, a tiny *click* resonated within his body. Immediately following this sound, his aura surged and rose explosively.

Mid-Stage Void Refinement! I finally succeeded.

He now absorbs massive amounts of spiritual energy with every level he raises, and the true energy within him is incredibly abundant, far more so than that of ordinary cultivators.

Now that he has reached the middle stage of the Void Core, he is comparable to an ordinary cultivator at the middle stage of Great Ascension.

With a heart full of joy, he glanced at the spirit stones beneath his feet, and his smile instantly vanished.

More than three hundred top-grade spirit stones were stolen, leaving only five. The thief absorbed all three hundred extorted spirit stones in one go.

He couldn't help but smile wryly. His cultivation consumed resources at an alarming rate; even ordinary sects wouldn't be able to afford it.

It seems like I'll have to find ways to get more top-grade spirit stones in the future. Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to improve my cultivation.

After finishing his cultivation, he left the Dragon King's Palace and returned to his room, where he found Xuanyuan Zhantian sitting at the table, drinking.

Upon seeing Ye Bufan appear, his drunken eyes looked over: "Little guy, not bad, you've improved so quickly."

Ye Bufan chuckled: "It's alright, also thanks for your help."

What he said came straight from the heart. The first time he was able to kidnap Bai Li Hongjun, but the next two times he definitely couldn't have done it without this old man.

"It's nothing, just consider it a consultation fee from an old man like me."

Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian said, “Now we’re even, I don’t owe you any favors. Old man, I’m here to say goodbye to you.”

Ye Bufan was taken aback: "So soon, you're leaving already"

"Yes, I, an old man, still have many things to do."

Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian said here with a wretched smile, "Little fellow, aren't you a little reluctant to part with me"

That's good. Bring me some pig trotters and good liquor next time you come see me, so I can remember your kindness every time I eat and drink.

"Sure, that's nothing."

Ye Bufan said, as he took out a storage ring filled with various foods and fine wine.

He was truly grateful to the old man, no matter if it was the Qi San Qing or those top-grade spirit stones, they had brought him great benefits.

Xuanyuan Zhan Tian took the ring, his divine sense sweeping over it, and he burst into a smile: "Not bad, little fellow!"

Ye Bufan said, "Where are you going Will we still be able to see each other in the future"

Although he hasn't spent much time with this old man, he does feel a little bit reluctant to break up.

Perhaps, as an old man, I have the world as my home. Who knows, maybe one day when I run out of food, I'll come find you.

Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian finished speaking, chuckled softly, and with a flicker of his figure, he vanished from the spot.ay."The Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts said, “The spatial passage should have been generated by heaven and earth, but here it looks like it was artificially concealed. How could this possibly be th...
