“Let’s go,” Dong Xi said with a smile. “Let’s go a little further in. This place will be very crowded in a while.”

The more she thought about it, the darker it became. Of course, there was no one inside, only the faint light of the spirit stone.

Dong Xi brought Ke Xin in for a while before stopping. Dong Xi said, “It’s good that it’s here. It’s a little too deep inside.”

Just as Dong Xi finished speaking, Ke Xin had already picked up her script and started to work on it.

Dong Xi smiled and also picked up the pickaxe to try chiseling a few times.

In the beginning, she wrapped the entire pickaxe with spiritual energy. After a few chisels, she realized that it was a waste. She only needed to attach the spiritual energy to the point where the pickaxe touched the spirit stone.

After digging out three low-grade spirit stones, Ke Xin had almost used up all the spiritual energy in her body. When she looked at Dong Xi again, she realized that she had already dug out seven or eight, but she was still fine.

This was the benefit of having a high cultivation! Ke Xin was truly envious.

However, when she sat down to recover her spiritual energy, it was as if a door had been opened. She said, “Sister! This place is filled with spirit stones. I want to cultivate here!”

If a first level Qi Refinement cultivator wanted to go out, each person had to hand in at least 10 spirit stones a day, 20 spirit stones for the second level, and an increase of 10 spirit stones for every level of cultivation.

Dong Xi and Ke Xin were young and had not taken the cultivation test, so the registration uncle directly registered them as first level Qi Refinement disciples. This gave Dong Xi, who was at the third level Qi Refinement, a huge advantage.

The spirit stones he saved could be used to pay Ke Xin’s share so that she could focus on her cultivation.

Ke Xin had also touched the door to the second level of the Qi Refinement stage. If she could break through here, it would also be her opportunity.

Dong Xi looked at Ke Xin, who had already sat down and was focused on her cultivation. She walked away to avoid the noise of her gathering spirit stones from disturbing Ke Xin.

She placed her hand on the stone wall and used her spiritual energy to sense it. Suddenly, her heart moved and she looked at the stone wall beside her.

The spiritual Qi here was much denser than in other places, so it should be a high-grade spirit stone.

If they could dig out Supreme-grade spirit stones, they would really make a big profit.

Before entering, the barrier used by the Zhang family to detect Dong Xi did not discover the jade pendant she carried with him, which surprised Dong Xi.

Back then, Senior Wang Ying had said that this jade pendant was of the lowest level of spiritual Qi. But now, it could avoid the test?

However, this was also good. She could store the extra spirit stones that she had dug out.

Dong Xi rubbed her hands excitedly as she thought of this. She aimed at the right position and started digging.

The rock was like tofu under the spiritual energy-imbued pickaxe, and it did not take much effort to dig out a large piece.

After digging a few times, he touched a very hard place.

According to Dong Xi’s previous experience of digging up spirit stones, his perception should not be wrong. There really were spirit stones here.

And according to the concentration of spirit Qi He had sensed before, it was at least a middle-grade spirit stone.

Thinking of this, Dong Xi became even more motivated.

She pulled away everything around the spirit stone, revealing it in front of Dong Xi.

The fist-sized spirit stone glowed, and it was purer than the high-grade spirit stones she had seen in the store.

Dong Xi’s heart beat faster. This should be a top-grade spirit stone!

Such a large piece should be able to cut into seven or eight spirit stones. Dong Xi waved his hand and the spirit stone entered the jade pendant.

Putting away the spirit stones, Dong Xi dug even harder, but there were no more spirit stones of such high quality. There were only three mid-grade and thirty low-grade spirit stones.

After her spiritual Qi had been exhausted, Dong Xi ate a Spirit Restore Pill. In any case, this kind of low-grade spirit replenishing pill was the most worthless in the sect.

While Dong Xi was busy, Ke Xin had also finished her work and was digging at the spirit stones with her pickaxe.

Dong Xi turned to Ke Xin when she heard the voice. “You’re not going to continue cultivating?”

Ke Xin’s hands did not stop moving. She only smiled and said, “If you break through, you’ll have to pay 20 spirit stones. It’s not appropriate!”

“That’s right, such meticulous planning still depends on us sisters.” Dong Xi could not help but laugh.

Ke Xin had also decided to continue digging for another ten days and break through directly after settling the accounts.

She had just dug out a middle-grade spirit stone, and before Ke Xin could show it off, a black figure appeared out of nowhere, picked up the spirit stone, and ate it in one bite.

Ke Xin jumped in shock and immediately screamed.

Following that, a series of footsteps could be heard.

Dong Xi did not continue digging. She looked up and saw three people walking over.

The leader was a young man with a pretty face. When he saw that it was two little girls, he looked down on them. He asked, “Kid, did you see a Flaming Frost-skin Rat?”

As soon as this person finished speaking, Ke Xin said angrily, “What rat are you talking about, I don’t know! It was as big as a spirit hound!”
