Urban God-level Youth
Chapter 926 - 926: Three Hundred Thousand Spirit Stones

The people of the Pang Family were stunned, and the onlookers were dumbfounded, their eyes almost popping out.

The Pang Family Head was defeated without even being able to withstand a single move?

How the hell is this possible?

A Qi Refinement stage seven defeating a Postnatal Middle Stage expert? How is this possible? There's no such case in the entire Hidden Dragon Continent, right?

At this moment, Qin Hao had already returned to his original spot, as if he hadn't moved at all, his speed was too fast, so fast that no one could see clearly.

Pang Guangfei stood up and looked at him in shock: "Are you a body cultivator?"

Just then, the kick Qin Hao launched and the speed he exhibited had no spiritual energy fluctuations; it was completely based on physical strength.

That was why Pang Guangfei said so. If Qin Hao was a body cultivator, that would be understandable.

Because body cultivators primarily cultivate the physical body and do not focus on spiritual energy cultivation, but such people are incredibly rare because achieving success in body cultivation is extremely difficult, extremely hard.

The hardships body cultivators endure are beyond the imagination of most people.

Among the body cultivators of the entire Hidden Dragon Continent, there are less than one in ten thousand.

"A body cultivator? He's actually a body cultivator, no wonder he can crush Pang Yi at Qi Refinement stage twelve with the strength of stage seven."

"Even the Pang Family Head was defeated by him in one move. How strong is his body?"

Qin Hao looked at Pang Guangfei and said, "I'll give you the time of one incense stick, either come up with five hundred thousand spirit stones or I'll kill you all."

Pang Guangfei's expression was uncertain. Five hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones was probably all their family had.

Does he have to ask the ancestor to step in?

The ancestor was the Pang Family's trump card, not easily used; otherwise, other families would learn of their true strength. Exposing their trump card is tantamount to letting the enemy analyze their strengths and weaknesses.

And to bring out the ancestor over such a matter, the ancestor would surely be enraged, considering him incompetent as the family head, and might even replace him.

Thinking of these, Pang Guangfei looked at Qin Hao and said, "This time I, Pang Guangfei, admit defeat. The Pang Family can't come up with five hundred thousand spirit stones, kill us and we still don't have that amount. Three hundred thousand is my limit."

Qin Hao hesitated for a moment: "Three hundred thousand it is then, hurry up, you only have the time of one incense stick."

Pang Guangfei quickly dispatched someone to retrieve it, and at the same time, he tossed a space ring to Qin Hao: "Inside are one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, the remaining two hundred thousand is being fetched."

In Pang Guangfei's eyes, his son's value was definitely worth that price, because his talent was exceptionally high, a rare genius in the Pang family in a hundred years; given some time, he would definitely have the hope of breaking through to the Innate Realm.

An Innate Realm expert, how could it be compared to a mere three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones?

In less than half an incense stick's time, the people of the Pang Family returned, bringing the two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Qin Hao accepted them all; these spirit stones were enough for him to break through several realms.

Those around watching saw Qin Hao took thirty thousand spirit stones and were a bit envious; these stones were something they couldn't earn in a lifetime.

For cultivators, the most important thing is spirit stones. Without spirit stones, no matter how talented you are, your cultivation speed cannot catch up.

To become a master, one is talent, and the other is spirit stones, both are indispensable.

This is also why many are willing to enter certain families and sects, because these families and sects have spirit stone resources to provide spirit stones for their cultivation.

After obtaining the spirit stones, Qin Hao released Pang Yi and confidently left, yet the Pang Family did not dare to stop him at all.

Pang Guangfei's expression was grim as he led the Pang Family away in disgrace.

The event today might soon spread across the whole of Nanxing City, and the Pang Family's prestige would plummet and be laughed at.

...

This area was a mix of dragons and snakes; the news quickly spread.

After obtaining the spirit stones, Qin Hao returned to the inn and continued his cultivation.

The Immortal Burying Skill was extremely powerful, highly efficient in absorbing and converting spiritual energy. Within a day, he had absorbed and refined nearly thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones, and his strength had reached the peak of Qi Refinement stage seven.

Five days later, Qin Hao had almost absorbed all three hundred thousand spirit stones, leaving about ten thousand for purchasing items and staying in inns.

His strength had also reached the peak of Qi Refinement stage nine, just a step away from stage ten.

Normally, for a person to break through from Qi Refinement stage seven to the peak of stage nine would generally take about two years, but Qin Hao only took a few days, the main reason being the surplus of spirit stones.

This time, he planned to look around Nanxing City, and if there wasn't anything he needed, he would leave and head towards the Skyfire Dynasty inside.

The place was more prosperous than here, with many large families and sects, where he could also get more information.

Arriving at the front restaurant, Qin Hao ordered a few dishes.

Someone in the restaurant spoke up, "Have you heard, the Red Cloud Sect has come to Nanxing City to select gifted youngsters; it's said the talented disciples of the Five Major Families all joined the Red Cloud Sect."

"The Red Cloud Sect is one of the Four Great Sects in Jiangping State, with experts as numerous as clouds, very terrifying. Even a single expert they send could wipe out the Five Major Families of Nanxing City."

"It's been decades since the Red Cloud Sect came to Nanxing City to select disciples, hasn't it?"

"Yes, there used to be no talented disciples in Nanxing City, but now each family has talented youngsters, and the Red Cloud Sect naturally won't miss out on these cultivation geniuses."

"It's heard that the other three sects in Jiangping State are also recruiting disciples in other towns, the competition among the Four Great Sects has always been intense, each wants to surpass the others."

When Qin Hao heard their conversation, he was stunned, Red Cloud Sect? One of the Four Great Sects?

After finishing breakfast, Qin Hao threw some spirit stones to the innkeeper, who was quick to say, "Mr. Qin, these spirit stones are too many."

"Consider it covering a few days' room fees, thank your madam for me." Having said that, Qin Hao turned and left the restaurant.

The innkeeper had also heard about Qin Hao's deeds a few days ago, stunned by Qin Hao's daring to extort the Pang Family Head, his strength was somewhat terrifying.

After leaving the restaurant, Qin Hao walked towards the West District of Nanxing City, planning to sell those materials for some spirit stones, and then see if there was anything good at the trade market. If not, he'd leave the city via the west gate, heading deeper into the Hidden Dragon Continent.

A dozen minutes later, Qin Hao arrived at the trade market in the West District of Nanxing City, where there were many shops and stalls, offering a wide array of items.

"Selling holy healing medicine, below Innate experts only need to be breathing and we can cure you, holy medicine for healing, holy medicine."

"Pill furnace of an Alchemy Grandmaster, come and take a look if you like, discovered deep in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, cheap price, only one million spirit stones."

In the trade market, voices hawking wares echoed continuously, but most were con artists, mainly tricking newcomers as the old-timers all knew it was a scam.
