Chapter 319: The Bustle Outside the Valley, Opening for Business

The sound was extremely loud.

The Cultivator who spoke must have been at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

And after this declaration was made, the Cultivators within Lingyao Valley all showed expressions of anticipation.

Especially after seeing the shocked and disbelieving expressions on the faces of the three people being chased, they were even more satisfied.

They just loved seeing that sudden shift from hope to despair on people's faces.

At this moment, another Cultivator from Lingyao Valley reminded them:

"Hey, why aren't you running faster? The people behind you are catching up."

The three immediately turned their heads upon hearing this.

Indeed, the Foundation Establishment Stage – Early Stage Cultivator was closing in.

The three couldn't bother to curse; they immediately changed direction and fled quickly.

The Cultivators of Lingyao Valley burst into laughter as they watched the three's disheveled figures.

"Hahaha, look at them! Their expressions are as if they want to devour us alive!"

"My stomach hurts from laughing; I never get tired of seeing how fast their expressions change."

"Speaking of which, they've run off, so how do we settle our bet? Without the Valley Master's command, we can't go out either. How will the final result be calculated?"

"…"

"Oh right! Refund the Spirit Stone!"

While everyone was noisily chattering, a streak of light quickly approached the entrance of the valley.

When the light disappeared, a thin Immortal Master with an ethereal aura appeared.

"Why are you all making such a racket?"

As soon as he spoke, the bustling valley entrance immediately quieted down.

The newcomer was a Core Formation True Person.

He was usually responsible for the security of this entrance.

The thin Immortal Master didn't usually restrain his subordinates much.

But seeing that these people were about to start a fight, and to prevent chaos from reaching Su Bai's ears, he came out to intervene.

Upon seeing the Core Formation True Person appear, someone immediately explained what had just happened.

The thin Immortal Master merely nodded upon hearing this.

Such things happened every two or three days.

It was nothing surprising.

"In that case, disperse."

"Yes, Immortal Master."

After a single sentence dispersed the gathered crowd, the thin Immortal Master looked outside the Formation.

It had only been ten years since Fierce Demon Valley changed owners.

And besides reckless individuals, normal people wouldn't come here, so the news hadn't spread.

However, even if the news was completely cut off, the outside world should soon notice the changes happening at Lingyao Valley.

"I hope the Valley Master can deter the outside crowd then."

Li Hun's cultivation was, after all, at the Nascent Soul Stage, and Li Country was once renowned.

No matter what, this Fierce Demon Valley was a place with a Spiritual Vein.

When the news of the change in ownership spreads, only the Cultivators within the valley will truly know how Fierce Demon Valley changed owners.

And most of them were quite confused.

After all, a Core Formation Cultivator slaying a Nascent Soul Cultivator was somewhat inconceivable.

One could only hope that when Lingyao Valley appears in the Great Yue Cultivation World's view, others won't be misled by Su Bai's Core Formation Late Stage cultivation.

If anyone were to think that Su Bai, the Valley Master of Lingyao Valley, was merely at the Core Formation Late Stage and harbored ulterior motives, then they would likely face a great disaster.

But thinking of such a scene, the thin Immortal Master showed no worry.

Instead, he revealed a ruthless smile.

The more blind people there were like that, the better.

Let the Valley Master kill them all.

…

Not long after the thin Immortal Master dispersed the Lingyao Valley Cultivators who were watching the show, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator who had been reminded earlier and had resumed chasing the three Cultivator: Jie Xiu returned.

Ma Qiufeng stood outside Lingyao Valley, frowning.

"Is this a Formation?"

"And when did Fierce Demon Valley change its name?"

"Lingyao Valley? Are these evil Cultivators going into business?"

The three Qi Refining Stage – Late Phase Cultivator: Jie Xiu had already been slain.

Ma Qiufeng had had reservations before.

But when he saw the three fleeing in a panic, he knew they had exhausted all their trump cards.

Upon realizing this, Ma Qiufeng no longer held back.

He swiftly caught up and slew the three.

The three Qi Refining Stage – Late Phase Cultivator: Jie Xiu had already been maintaining their spiritual power using secret techniques and Medicinal Pills while being pursued by Ma Qiufeng.

Before reaching Lingyao Valley, they had desperately flown quickly without regard for consumption.

The sudden excessive consumption left them with no time to recover.

They barely had any strength left to even flee separately.

They could only be caught in despair.

Ma Qiufeng looked at Lingyao Valley, protected by the Formation, and couldn't find a way to enter.

He then decided to return and claim his bounty reward.

Just as he turned to leave, someone called out to him.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist, wait a moment."

"Hmm?"

Ma Qiufeng turned his head.

He saw that the person who called out to him was a bald, burly man with a fierce face.

Just his appearance made Ma Qiufeng's heart tremble.

And the other party was also a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

This was definitely an evil Cultivator!

"Fellow Daoist, were those three people killed by you, or did they escape?"

"Uh, they were killed by me."

Ma Qiufeng didn't know why the other party asked about this, but he still told the truth.

And when the bald, burly man heard the answer, his eyes lit up, and he revealed a mouthful of white teeth.

"Good that they're killed, good that they're killed, hahaha."

Saying that, he no longer paid attention to Ma Qiufeng and ran towards the valley.

Ma Qiufeng watched the bald, burly man's retreating figure.

He then looked at the mountain peak engraved with the three large characters: Lingyao Valley.

…This place is very strange.

"The name change is probably meant to deceive people!"

Thinking of this, Ma Qiufeng felt a chill in his heart.

He dared not linger any longer.

He quickly fled Lingyao Valley.

The changes in the outside world did not affect Lingyao Valley in the slightest.

With the help of Creation Essence, the Spirit Medicine in Lingyao Valley grew very rapidly.

First-grade Spirit Medicine could be harvested quickly four times a year.

Although second-grade Spirit Medicine was slower, it only took about three years.

This growth rate was already terrifying.

Now, Lingyao Valley was filled with first-grade and second-grade Spirit Medicine all over the mountains.

Previously, Cultivators needed to go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to collect Spirit Medicine.

Now, they might even find a few first-grade Spirit Medicine growing like weeds right outside their own doors.

As for third-grade Spirit Medicine, Su Bai had specially opened a medicinal garden around Yin Demon Hall.

After all, below Yin Demon Hall was a fourth-grade Spiritual Vein.

Planting third-grade Spirit Medicine here was most suitable.

The outside world gradually made new discoveries about Fierce Demon Valley.

They had already noticed that Fierce Demon Valley had changed its name to Lingyao Valley.

They also understood that the Cultivators currently in Fierce Demon Valley seemed to only enter but not leave.

As if they would devour people.

There were also Core Formation Cultivators who specially came to investigate.

But they found that there was a Formation blocking the outside, and they could only observe what was inside with their naked eyes.

And Lingyao Valley seemed to be like spring all year round.

The mountains were covered with Spirit Medicine.

From time to time, flying Cultivators could be seen in the sky.

But those Cultivators seemed completely unconcerned by the people observing from the outside.

Making Lingyao Valley an increasingly mysterious place.

Thus, time passed, and twenty years went by.

Lingyao Valley finally opened, officially unveiling its mysterious veil to the Cultivation World.

Su Bai sat in Yin Demon Hall.

With each breath, she seemed to merge with the surrounding air.

Now, her second Golden Core in the Bottom Wheel had reached Perfection, and she had begun Cultivating the third Golden Core.

"The Spirit Medicine has accumulated enough, and a thousand High Grade first-grade Alchemists and a thousand High Grade first-grade Artifact Refiners have also been trained. It's time to open our doors to guests."
