Chapter 99

"Damn it." Zheng Shiyi helplessly glanced at Wu Dong and ignored him. In Wu Dong's surprise, he turned and walked towards the reward redemption area.

Zheng Shiyi walked very quickly and soon arrived at the reward redemption area.

Su Li, who was in charge of redeeming rewards, still asked each disciple who wanted to redeem rewards with the same coldness as usual.

Seeing Zheng Shiyi walking over, Su Li quickly handed his work to an assistant nearby.

Su Li stepped forward and greeted Zheng Shiyi with a smile, "Shiyi, you're here. What reward do you want to redeem this time?"

Previously, Zheng Shiyi had redeemed the head of Qiu Tianlang here. As the elder responsible for distributing rewards, Su Li received many rewards for this.

Therefore, Su Li's attitude towards Zheng Shiyi was much better than towards other disciples.

Zheng Shiyi took out the heads of Lang Liang and Song Jian and explained, "This is Lang Liang and the head of the murderer who has been committing frequent crimes in the swamp recently."

"Lang Liang and the murderer's head?" Su Li looked at the two heads in surprise.

Lang Liang had committed many crimes, disgracing many female disciples of the sect. The sect had sent many strong people to capture him, but unfortunately, that guy was too cunning, and all the strong people sent to capture him ended up dead.

Therefore, almost no one would take the risk of capturing Lang Liang.

As for the murderer who had been committing frequent crimes recently, they had just obtained his portrait not long ago.

The appearance of the head in Zheng Shiyi's hand matched the portrait of the murderer exactly.

In other words, Zheng Shiyi had really killed the murderer.

Su Li hadn't been this happy in a long time. While putting away the heads of Lang Liang and the murderer, he praised Zheng Shiyi, "Shiyi, you're amazing! I really underestimated you! It's only been so long, and you've already killed two people on the wanted list!"

"With your abilities and talent, I believe you will soon enter the inner sect! When that time comes, I'm sure you will clear the entire wanted list!"

"By the way, the reward for capturing Lang Liang and the murderer is 6,000 soul stones. Do you want me to give you soul stone tickets or soul stones?"

The last time Zheng Shiyi came to extract soul stones, he quickly extracted 1,000 soul stones, which shocked Su Li. Su Li mentioned it casually.

"Extract all these soul stones. Also, redeem 13,000 soul stones for me."

Zheng Shiyi took out the 6,000 soul stone tickets he won from Yu Yan, the 1,000 soul stone tickets he found on Yi Ming and Lang Liang, and the 5,000 soul stone tickets he won from Tian Kun.

"13,000 soul stones plus 6,000 soul stones make 19,000 soul stones."

Su Li trembled as he took the soul stone tickets from Zheng Shiyi. Since he started managing this place, he had never seen a disciple redeem so many soul stones at once.

"No matter how many soul stones you have, you should use them wisely. Besides, no disciple is wealthy enough to have this much." Su Li kept marveling in his heart.

"Elder Su Li, I can't carry so many soul stones. Please help me deliver them to my residence. I'll go back first."

Zheng Shiyi greeted Su Li and turned to walk back to his residence.

"No... no problem." Su Li stood there for a long time before coming to his senses. He turned and sent people to prepare the soul stones Zheng Shiyi needed.

Many disciples nearby, who were collecting rewards, heard about the rewards Zheng Shiyi was redeeming. Compared to their own rewards, which were less than one soul stone, they felt more jealousy and frustration.

"Who is this guy? How can he have so many soul stones?"

Many people started guessing Zheng Shiyi's identity.

Among them, those who knew Zheng Shiyi answered, "He is Zheng Shiyi, who has been making a big stir on the风云榜 (Feng Yun Bang, a ranking board) recently."

"I suggest you don't think about his soul stones, or you'll end up like Tian Kun and Luo Tu."

"He is Zheng Shiyi." Upon learning that the person who left was indeed Zheng Shiyi, those who had intended to take his soul stones no longer had such thoughts. They all praised Zheng Shiyi, "He is really amazing."

"He has only been in the sect for a short time, yet he has already entered the top ten of the Feng Yun Bang, and he has obtained so many soul stones in such a short time."

"Given his outstanding abilities and so many soul stones, I believe that with some time, he will definitely enter the inner sect and eventually become an inner sect disciple."

Zheng Shiyi didn't hear the comments behind him and quickly returned home.

Not long after he arrived home, Su Li indeed sent people to deliver the 18,000 soul stones he had redeemed by cart.

After the people moved the soul stones into the room, Zheng Shiyi took out 12,000 soul stones from his spatial storage bag and eagerly began his cultivation.

Wu Dong stared at Zheng Shiyi, who was cultivating in the room, "Does this guy really redeem all the soul stones? What kind of cultivation technique does he use that requires so many soul stones?"

"Huh? Little Tiger, how did he go in with him? Now no one will play with me. I might as well cultivate diligently."

Wu Dong sat down cross-legged.

In a room far from Zheng Shiyi's residence, two exhausted figures were sitting helplessly on chairs, staring angrily into the distance, "Where did this guy go? We couldn't find him!"

"To find this guy, we almost encountered the Shadow Pig and other powerful beasts. I hope he died in the swamp, or I will make him suffer a terrible death!"

These two were Yu Yan and Lin Zhe, who had gone deep into the swamp to hunt down Zheng Shiyi.

They followed Zheng Shiyi's tracks, but just as they thought they were about to catch up with him, the poisonous fog in the swamp suddenly changed.

The dense poison almost overwhelmed them, and they nearly died from the poison.

They could only sit cross-legged to resist the poison.

When they recovered, they went to look for Zheng Shiyi, but he was already gone.

Fearing that the poisonous fog would change again and kill them, they hurriedly left the swamp.

"Brother Yan, you're back. We heard that Zheng Shiyi received 19,000 soul stones from Su Li."

Several of Yu Yan's subordinates rushed in, out of breath, and told Yu Yan.

"19,000 soul stones, it seems that the kid is about to form a spirit spring." Lin Zhe's pupils narrowed, and he stood up.

"Lin Zhe?"

Yu Yan's subordinates were so focused on telling Yu Yan the news that they didn't notice Lin Zhe sitting next to Yu Yan. When Lin Zhe stood up, they all instinctively shrank back.

"We are on the same side." Yu Yan gestured to his subordinates to relax and then said to Lin Zhe, "As far as I know, the more powerful the spirit spring cultivation technique, the more soul stones it requires."

"But even if it requires more, it wouldn't exceed 5,000 soul stones. This guy needs 19,000 soul stones to form a spirit spring. How powerful must his spirit spring cultivation technique be?"

"Why don't we kill him now while he is just forming his spirit spring? That way, we can obtain his spirit spring cultivation technique and..."

Yu Yan's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Lin Zhe with a sly smile.

Lin Zhe waved his hand to interrupt, "Absolutely not. Using 19,000 soul stones to form a spirit spring is too conspicuous."

"He will be very cautious. If we go to kill him now and fail, we will be in big trouble."

The sect has a rule that during a disciple's cultivation, especially when forming a spirit spring, they must not be disturbed, or the person who disturbed them will be executed.

Yu Yan naturally knew that if they failed to kill Zheng Shiyi during his spirit spring formation, they would be executed.

But he also knew that if he didn't act now, once Zheng Shiyi formed his spirit spring, he would no longer be a match for him.

The attack in the swamp had already made them mortal enemies!

Yu Yan knew very well that Zheng Shiyi, despite his seemingly calm demeanor, was extremely decisive and ruthless. He would definitely challenge on the Feng Yun Bang in the future! Even the reputation of his brother Yu Wei might not make him fear.

"When else will we kill him if not now?" Yu Yan placed his hands together under his chin and stared at Lin Zhe, "Are we going to wait until he forms his spirit spring and challenges me on the Feng Yun Bang?"

Lin Zhe frowned and slowly said, "We don't need to wait until then... We both know that forming a spirit spring doesn't happen in a day or two; it takes at least six days."

"By the fifth day, the person forming the spirit spring will be extremely weak, even if the kid is very cautious and has strong defenses."

"At that time, we don't need to act ourselves. We can send a few people to do it easily. As long as we offer enough compensation, there will be people willing to do it."

Lin Zhe deliberately glanced at Yu Yan's subordinates, as if to say, "If we don't act, even if the sect investigates, they won't find it on us."

"That makes sense..." The unease on Yu Yan's face disappeared, and he looked at his subordinates, "I, Yu Yan, remember both grudges and favors. This is a very risky task, but I will definitely offer enough compensation..."

Zheng Shiyi sat cross-legged, his hands on his abdomen, holding a soul stone. Strands of red soul power, as if drawn by something, shot out from the soul stone, forming a red light that rushed into Zheng Shiyi's body.

The soul stone in Zheng Shiyi's hand instantly turned to powder.

The soul power that entered his body, about two-thirds, went into the soul seed, while less than one-third remained near the wheel.

"Indeed, as I thought, the soul seed will absorb the soul power. Fortunately, I prepared 30,000 soul stones."

A smile appeared on Zheng Shiyi's lips. He grabbed nearby soul stones, allowing his body to absorb the soul power, and cultivated according to the method of the nameless cultivation technique.

Strands of soul power began to flow into the wheel, which was filled with spiritual energy. As they flowed in, the color of the wheel gradually turned red.

At this moment, the wheel, which had been stationary, showed signs of movement.
