Chapter 1210: 1210

Chapter 1210 Trust the Oldest!

Three days passed.

The transport team finally arrived at the cultivation base.

In the base, He Xue had already prepared a giant pit. Under Fang Qiu’s guidance, all the jade pieces in the ten trucks were poured into it, and not even one piece was missing.

“What kind of stones are these?” He Xue asked curiously.

After the fleet of trucks left, He Xue squatted beside the pit and scrutinized the piece of jade in her hand.

!!

“Rocks of great use!” Fang Qiu said with a smile.

“Can we make money from them?”

He Xue’s eyes lit up as she asked, “Is it some sort of medicinal herb?”

“Of course not.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “These stones are much more precious than medicinal herbs.”

“Just tell me what these stones can be used for.”

He Xue, who was intensely interested, could not wait to ask.

She knew Fang Qiu well.

Fang Qiu would never have spent so much time and effort transporting useless items from thousands of miles away.

However, in her eyes, these stones were just ordinary cream-colored jade stones, which seemed worthless.

It was also because of this that she was particularly curious.

“You’ll know it soon.”

Fang Qiu smiled and said, “All you need to know is that these jade pieces are very valuable. This big pit seems too humble a place to hold them. Why don’t we find some workers to build an underground warehouse? Anyway, after the new land is approved, the construction there will still be carried out. Let’s add an underground warehouse and make it as spacious as possible.”

“No problem.”

He Xue nodded her agreement and replied, “The construction of the main base has begun, but adding an underground warehouse shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Hmm.”

Fang Qiu nodded with satisfaction.

After he got the land which was three times the size of the current cultivation base, Fang Qiu handed over the construction project of the new base to He Xue. If the land that Fang Qiu had was compared to a nine-square grid, the new base under construction was the square in the center, and the rest of the places around it would be used for cultivating!

“Eh, look.”

He Xue held the piece of jade in her hand and observed it as she said, “It looks quite impressive. It can’t be a well-known and precious type of jade, can it? Do you want to engage in the jade business?”

“These stones are much more precious than the top-class jade you mentioned.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “The piece in your hand, you can take it away as a present from me. When you sit quietly and recuperate, hold it in your hand. It’ll be good for your health. You may even ask someone to polish it and make it into a bead bracelet, a pendant, or anything you like.”

“Okay.”

He Xue nodded knowingly.

Somehow, she could sense that these jade stones were a bit odd.

Fang Qiu had taught her something before. Although she hadn’t practiced for long nor had touched the Qi of Heaven and Earth, she practiced martial arts. Thus, she was more sensitive to the Qi of Heaven and Earth than ordinary people.

She could sense it so she believed Fang Qiu’s words without a shadow of a doubt.

“I’ll arrange for the construction of the underground warehouse.”

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, He Xue said goodbye to him and left with the jade stone in her hand.

As for Fang Qiu, he chose a level place nearby and sat down quietly.

Ordinary people couldn’t sense it.

However, Fang Qiu, a martial arts practitioner who was as powerful as a guru, could clearly feel that with the arrival of these jade stones, the Qi of Heaven and Earth in the entire cultivation base had greatly improved.

It floated all around the pit which was filled with the jade stones.

Even the whole cultivation base was entirely covered by the rich Qi of Heaven and Earth.

This Qi of Heaven and Earth was extremely dense.

Fortunately…

This place was in a closed military zone.

Usually, no one could come in or walk around this place. Even if some Wulin experts needed to pass by, they would have to keep a certain distance from it and make a detour.

Therefore, Fang Qiu was not afraid that anyone would come and scramble for it.

He asked He Xue to build an underground warehouse so that he could keep these precious pieces in a safer place.

He guarded them nearby.

Fang Qiu sat still, surrounded by the rich Qi of Heaven and Earth. Gradually, he immersed himself deeply in cultivation.

There were still a few days before the battle. Knowing that his opponent was a guru, Fang Qiu chose to meditate and adjust his state to the best.

After he mined for so many days, the dense Qi of Heaven and Earth in the mine had cleansed his whole body, and his strength had reached the ninth-class Completion with two opened meridians. Fang Qiu needed to stay quiet for a few days to comprehend his improvement in recent days.

…

Time went by…

The Wulin people were getting increasingly excited about the battle, and their discussions became more and more heated.

“Five days have passed. Why hasn’t John Doe announced the time and place?”

“What on earth is he doing?”

“Is he scared?”

“In the past few days, there has been no news of that young master named Qingshan.”

“Anyway, let us know the time and place, so we can get there early and grab the best places to watch the battle. If John Doe publishes the information right before the battle, it might be too late for us to get there in time. What should we do then?”

On the Wulin online forum, everyone was anxiously waiting for John Doe to announce the time and venue of the challenge.

.

He Gaoming had just left the restricted military zone and returned to the wine factory with his brothers. As soon as he saw the animated discussions on the forum, he became a little anxious and immediately called John Doe.

“Beep, beep, beep…”

At the cultivation base in Beijiang, Fang Qiu’s cell phone suddenly rang, rousing him from his meditation.

“Hello?”

Fang Qiu answered the phone.

“Master.”

He Gaoming said, “Everyone on the Wulin online forum is terribly anxious while waiting for you to give the time and venue for the challenge. There are only five days to the battle deadline set by you. Do you want me to help you with that?”

“Five days?”

Fang Qiu thought for a moment and said, “Five days later, early in the morning, the grassland of Qinghai!”

“Okay.”

He Gaoming nodded, immediately hung up the phone, and logged into the forum to respond.

Five minutes later…

A post was released on the Wulin online forum.

“Five Days Later, Early in the Morning, Gobi Desert in the Qinghai uninhabited area!”

There was only the title but no content.

Everyone looked intently at it.

The message was updated by John Doe’s account! All of a sudden, they were all thrilled.

“Finally, there is an announcement.”

“Qinghai, Gobi Desert in the uninhabited area?”

“I thought John Doe would choose a place near those well-known mountains and rivers. Never had I imagined him that he would choose the uninhabited area.”

“A good choice. There are no ordinary people around. In this vast area, they can fight as violently as they want. Even if the pitched battle causes too much noise, it will not affect others in the Gobi Desert of the uninhabited area.”

“Well, there are not many suitable places for challenges. John Doe is the best after the gurus, while Qingshan is an authentic young guru. The battle between them must be unparalleled. No one knows what kind of substantial damage they will cause, so the uninhabited area is indeed the best choice.”

In this post…

Many people commented that John Doe had chosen a good place for the challenge.

However…

Compared with John Doe’s previous posts, this one seemed to be much less popular.

In contrast…

Qingshan was one of the hottest trending topics.

“A young guru. Qingshan is the best among the younger generation of Wulin. Everyone agrees with me on this, right?”

“John Doe’s brilliance is already a thing of the past .”

“Qingshan is a real guru, and John Doe is no match for him!”

“All of you should have known by now. With his superior strength, Qingshan never uses torture methods or brutal violence to subdue his opponents. The moment he defeats his opponent, he will leave immediately. He doesn’t want to hurt anyone at all. From this point of view, Qingshan’s character is impeccable. He deserves to be called a master!”

“Legends say that there are gurus in Wulin. Even if gurus exist in Wulin, Master Qingshan was the only one who became a guru at such a young age!”

“This time, I think I should support Master Qingshan.”

“I feel Qingshan has a higher chance of winning. Although John Doe is also mighty and mysterious, Qingshan is clearly the victor going by the power he has shown.”

In the short five days, the situation in Wulin changed drastically. A lot of people actually began to support Qingshan. Some people even thought the old days when John Doe dominated Wulin had gone for good.

It had only been two years.

However, two years was long enough for the young blood in Wulin to start substituting for the old.

In this situation, many new-rising martial arts practitioners became fans of Qingshan, who caused a sensation in Wulin as soon as he turned up. Like when John Doe appeared, Qingshan soon attracted a huge following after he displayed his powerful strength through one challenge after another.

The wine factory officially started its operations.

He Gaoming thought that after the time and venue were released, netizens on the Wulin online forum would become less agitated. Unexpectedly, shortly after he updated the time and venue, the Wulin online forum thronged with more comments, and the discussion became more intense and sarcastic.

He Gaoming was quite indignant at those posts which backed Qingshan and slandered John Doe.

These people…

They turned against John Doe in such a short time.

They might not support John Doe, but was it necessary to say things like “John Doe is already a thing of the past” and “John Doe is not qualified to fight with Qingshan”?

He Gaoming was not the only one who felt bad.

More than 30 brothers under He Gaoming’s direct supervision looked worried when they encountered such remarks on the Wulin online forum.

Qingshan was a guru after all!

Could John Doe defeat Qingshan?

“Why would the oldest accept this challenge?”

“We certainly believe in him, but gurus are excessively powerful.”

“Right, Brother He, why don’t you persuade the oldest to give up?”

Everyone asked worriedly.

“Take it easy. What the hell are you worried about?”

Hearing everyone’s words, He Gaoming spoke up, “You know that the stronger the rivals, the better the oldest performs. Besides, the oldest has never lost a fight. We must have faith in him. The oldest appears at a disadvantage, but he should remain the best in our hearts even if he loses this battle. Also, I believe that he can quickly make a breakthrough and become a guru. At that time, it’s hard to say who will win!”

He Gaoming’s words appeased them somewhat.

On second thought, they realized John Doe had never lost before, and He Gaoming was right. Yun Yangzi, John Doe’s defeated opponent, was now a Half-step Guru. Since John Doe was more potent than Yun Yangzi, he must be very close to being a guru.

In this case, John Doe was indeed capable of becoming a guru at any time!
