Plunder

The most vital place of the ye clan was it's spirit pool, this was the place that birthed spirit stones for the clan.

The remaining three places were the clans spirit storage ground, clans inner treasury and clans scripture hall.

The clans scripture hall held all the mid grade techniques in the clan. As for the clans inner treasury, it held the only high grade (fifth layer of the primeval sword art) technique in the clan.

As for the spirit storage ground, which was located right next to the clans inner treasury contained a massive amount of spirit stones and also held the first, second, third, fourth and the final layer of the primeval star mantra.

Always core formation realm experts who gaurd these places, but due to the abnormality it was different, only elder Tian was guarding these important spots at now.

Elder Tian shook his head, he said with an unmoved expression: "No, now is not the time for this. The younger generation are really daring as always. what if we wait a few more days? There is no rush, we can decide then."

Bai Ming retorted with heaven defying confidence "We can't afford to waste a single second, if we drag this out, there might never be such a golden opportunity. Now is the perfect time to attack the other villages, the risks are at the lowest now."

Both Bai Ming and Tian hai were already engaged in a conversation for few minutes now. Bai Ming wanted them to attack the other two villages, how could it be that easy Tian hai definitely had much considerations.

"Elder Bai, Don't worry" Elder Tian smiled, analyzing "Right now all the three villages are under an unknown danger and we don't know how dangerous it really is, it is best if we have others to shield us. And we are also not sure on the number of elders they have stationed at their respective villages, as for our side we currently only have three core formation experts, two peak stage but your only at the initial stage. If we were to fight them, the first one to die won't be me or elder Xu.."

Bai Ming showed a difficult expression, before it became resolute, he held the treasure sword in his right hand, his Spiritual energy surging like tidal waves "Then so be it! As long as I can be useful for the clan, what does my life matter. Hahaha, I am even prepared to die a hundred times!" The resolution and determination in Bai Ming's eyes were unmatched.

Elder Tian looked at Bai Ming's eyes deeply, and fell silent for a long time before heaving a deep sigh "Do you have a plan?"

"It is almost time, the time will be ripe soon" Bai Ming thought inwardly, but on the surface he was shocked and pleased, he joyfully answered: "Of course, but before that shall we sit down."

Bai Ming definitely wouldn't allow Tian hai to stand, when standing one's muscles were more tensed and active, hence they could move quickly. But when we one is seated, the body is relaxed and light, even their mental state would be somewhat affected.

Bai Ming wanted to kill Tian hai swiftly, he had to make ample preparations.

Elder Tian nodded and began walking toward a corner.

"Elder one minute." saying that Bai Ming took out two seats from his storage pouch and placed both seats closely and directed Elder Tian to sit down.

Elder Tian sat down, he had many thoughts in his mind. His gaze subconsciously landed on the storage pouch on Bai Ming's left hand, which was inching closer to him.

Right away, without any warning!

primeval sword art - 1st layer!!

A whistling sound was heard as the demonic sword broke the air and thrusted towards Tian hai's forehead.

Tian hai was staring in horror, the bloody sword mark left on his forehead enlarged as blood started to spurt out from the front and back of his head.

He was dead!

Tian hai died with his eyes wide open, his face was frozen with extreme shock and terror, Bai Ming had attacked like lighting, terrifyingly quick.

Bai Ming coldly smirked looking at the dead body, before keeping it inside the storage bag.

This surely wasn't just because Bai Ming was able to catch Tian hai with a surprise, Of course the suprise factor did contribute. But it was mainly due to the fact Bai Ming had greatest advantage in close combat. Bai Ming dose indeed possess 6th layer core formation realm body cultivation, but body cultivation dose not strengthen spiritual energy, it can only amplify close combat attacks and Bai Ming's only close combat attacks were either the 1st layer of primeval sword art and tyrant fist. 1st layer of primeval sword art was a piercing attack, which needed direct contact. This allowed Bai Ming to perfectly display both his body cultivation and spiritual cultivation at the same time, plus there was also his battle qi which amplified his every attack by three times. Hence, this sneak attack was actually his current strongest attacking method, which could make use of both his body and spiritual cultivation.

"Now, all the obstacles have been cleared. It's time to collect the prize, hehehe." Bai Ming's expression was cold, with his hands behind his back he walked towards the clans spirit storage grounds.

An ancient black door engraved with sword scars greeted him in the dark tunnel, Bai Ming kicked open the door and entered it.

Before him was a mountain of spirit stones lying on the ground, Bai Ming was happily smiling at this sight.

"Absorb"

Bai Ming absorbed as much as he could before upgrading his stats.

"I have reached the limit, upgrading both comprehension and sword path aptitude requires 25,000 skill points each. But my skill point storage can only store 10,000 points now it looks like I can only upgrade it after breaking through Yin-Yang void realm." Bai Ming pondered.

There were still around 40-50 thousand spirit stones left, Bai Ming quickly stored them in his storage pouch.

Next he moved toward the center, where a large stone tablet stood, this was the stone tablet which contained the all the layers of the primeval star mantra, Bai Ming slashed at the stone tablet and stored the piece which recorded the 4th & 5th layer of primeval star mamta and destroyed the other part.

Next Bai Ming went to the place of the spirit pool and stored all of the spirit liquid, the amount of spirit liquid was enough for him to reach the peak of spirit realm.

After looting the village dry his storage pouch was almost completely filled. Next, his target was the clans scripture hall, which had all the mid grade techniques. Later Bai Ming went towards the only pill hall in the village and plundered all the healing pills there were, there were a huge amount of 1st tier pills, some 2nd tier pills and not one 3rd tier healing pills, Bai Ming wasn't satisfied he went to Ji family estate and began rampaging in their estate, after nearly an hour he was able to get small bottle filled with tier 3 healing pills, he Continued to search for another twenty minutes and finally found what he wanted, these were the recipes of all healing pills from low grade tier 1 to high grade tier 3 healing pills.

Next Bai Ming set up a small formation around him and used Tian hai's body to cultivate the rotten blood art. Of course he had safely stored Tian hai's spiritual core.

After an hour had passed, Bai Ming got up and inspected the crescent on his abdomen, it was 90% complete, which meant his body cultivation was at 8th layer of core formation realm. Bai Ming had killed more than thousands of people to to get his third crescent to 70% completion, but just one core formation realm martial artist body allowed him 20% completion.

"Now is the time to make the decision, should I go towards the place of the abnormality to try my luck or do I go to the other villages and wreak havoc, or do I just cultivate... Cultivating is not the right choice, first of all my cultivation base is not yet consolidated, as for attacking the other villages it is not bad option but who knows how long this mountain is going to stand and by the time i go looking for the possible treasure it might already be snatched by others." Bai Ming fell into deep thought.

This was really a difficult decision for Bai Ming, considering his risk taking personality he very much wanted to go find the 'treasure'.

After a full minute had gone by, only then did Bai Ming finally came to an conclusion.

"If I were to attack the other villages now, I don't know much of their strength, and if there are three or more elders present it will be troublesome and my divine sense has still not completely recovered searching for them will be troublesome, as for going towards the abnormality is also not wise, at the moment I should focus on achieving master attainment in sword path, then my sword path attacks will be twice as strong as before. Considering my sword path aptitude and using that great grandmasters sword path insights I should be able to attain master attainment within day. After that I will head to the place of the abnormality, the clan head did mention there was restriction there, if that treasure has something to do with a great formation path cultivator it will definitely prove to be of great help for me."

Bai Ming then began to study the way of the sword, previously Bai Ming had no time to study these insights, but whenever he did have some time he would go through it, trying his best to comprehend it, but he was still a distance away from reaching the master attainment, But now with his freakish talent reaching master attainment didn't seem difficult for him.
