Chapter 29: Open the Five Element Dwellings

After his initial shock, Xiao Tianren felt his heart bubble with joy. He knew what an unmined Feiyun Fire Copper mine symbolized.

He knew well what sort of astonishing changes it could bring to the entire Feiyun Village!

Feiyun Village had nothing of value and had to live off from selling and exchanging aeth grains for meager living supplies. They had only just barely solved the problem of food and clothing shortage in the village.

But if the villagers sold Feiyun Fire Copper, they would no doubt become wealthy and wouldnt have to worry about making a living anymore.

Additionally, after securing abundant materials, the children in the village could attend school, learn to read, and even embark on the path of true cultivation. They could seek success in prosperous cities, unlike their parents who had to grow up in poverty in a remote place!

Uncle Xiao, I want to ask you to invite all the villagers to mine the Feiyun Fire Copper together. Everyone will have a share of what we make from selling the ores, Lin Xun proposed quickly.

Xiao Tianrens cheeks flushed and he seemed to quiver with emotion. It was only after a good while that he could clench his teeth and respond, No! You discovered the ore vein. It belongs to you. I can call on the entire village to help you mine the ore but you only need to pay them for the work!

Lin Xun shook his head, The wealth originally belongs to the Feiyun Village. I just happened to discover it. I absolutely cant monopolize it alone. Otherwise, I would rather not have the fortune that the ores will fetch.

His tone was calm but resolute.

Xiao Tianren stared blankly at Lin Xun for a long time before he could utter, Dodoyou know what a Feiyun Fire Copper mine is worth?

He picked up the thumb-sized Feiyun Fire Copper on the table. Even a small piece like this could get thirty imperial copper coins more than one hundred years ago! Now, you can get even more if you sell this in the city!

He suddenly inhaled sharply. This is the market price from more than one hundred years ago. Its worth a lot more now. Areyou really sure you want to do this?

Although the value of a Feiyun Fire Copper surprised Lin Xun a little, he still unwaveringly nodded. Ive decided.

He was an orphan raised by Mister Lu since he was young.

At the age of thirteen, the mine prison he had lived in all his life was destroyed and he had no idea where Mister Lu went or if he was still alive. After that, he came to the Ziyao Empires territory alone.

Feiyun Village was his first home in the Ziyao Empire, and Village Chief Xiao Tianren and the villagers treated him as one of their people.

In such a situation, how could Lin Xun mind them taking a share of the wealth from the Feiyun Fire Copper mine?

Compared to mere worldly possessions, Lin Xun valued more the kindness that the villagers in Feiyun Village had given him!

At that point, Xiao Tianren no longer regarded Lin Xun as a junior. No ordinary adult had a mindset comparable to Lin Xuns, even if he was only thirteen years old.

Moreover, Lin Xun not only was a rune apprentice proficient in engraving runes, but he was also a cultivator strong in combat!

Xiao Tianren compared him with Lian Rufeng. If the other man had been the one who had discovered the Feiyun Fire Copper mine, it was highly unlikely that the villagers would see a single copper of profit from it!

The huge contrast between Lin Xun and Lian Rufeng made Xiao Tianren admire and even respect Lin Xun.

It wasnt easy to make him, an old man who had lived most of his life already, respect a thirteen-year-old boy.

Xiao Tianren didnt try to dissuade Lin Xun anymore. After Lin Xun made his decision, he began thinking about how to mobilize the villagers to dig the Feiyun Fire Copper.

Lin Xun suddenly said aloud, Uncle Xiao, theres no need to hurry. We should get rid of the hidden issue in the village before we announce this matter.

Issue?

Xiao Tianren was a little alarmed at first but he immediately understood what Lin Xun meant and his face assumed a solemn expression. Indeed, if he considered the fact that Lin Xun had killed Lu Ting and Qian Qi, Lian Rufeng would definitely not be willing to leave the matter like so when he and his people returned.

This was obvious.

The existence of Lian Rufeng and his people was a serious threat to the entire Feiyun Village.

A few days ago, Xiao Tianren had already realized that Lian Rufeng and others were plotting something detrimental to Feiyun Village.

If Xiao Tianren waited for them to return to the village then not only Lin Xun would be in danger, but even all of the villagers would also suffer!

Xiao Tianren scrunched his eyebrows. Lin Xun, what do you think we should do?

As someone who possessed a cultivation base of the fourth layer True Martial Stage, Lian Rufeng was incredibly powerful. Moreover, a group of bodyguards constantly followed him. The villagers were simply no match for him.

Lin Xun asked quietly, Uncle Xiao, I want to know what the villagers think of Lian Rufeng. After all, Lian Rufeng and his people are also members of the village. If we really plan to deal with them, we have to consider the other villagers opinions.

This was indeed a problem. Although the behavior of Lian Rufeng and the others was increasingly outrageous and they even secretly pocketed a lot of the villages earnings, the villagers still needed their help in transporting goods to the Qingyang tribe. Otherwise, they wouldnt be able to survive.

In other words, the villagers had no choice but to rely on Lian Rufeng and his people in order to live!

This was the reason why Lian Rufeng and the others had dared to be so arrogant and audacious.

Xiao Tianren thought the question over, but in the end he couldnt hide his disgust. In recent years, Lian Rufeng and the others have brought back less and less materials, which made the villagers increasingly resent them. However, the villagers had to swallow their hatred and anger to continue to live.

Xiao Tianren couldn't help but sigh. Most importantly, everyone is worried if Lian Rufeng was gone, who would help them exchange for supplies with the Qingyang tribe?

Lin Xun felt a lot more relieved. He smiled. Thats easy. Once we get rid of Lian Rufeng and the others, I will help the village solve the problem of living supplies!

Xiao Tianren perked up. Lin Xun, you want to deal with Lian Rufeng and the others? How confident are you in succeeding?

Lin Xun didnt answer and just smiled. Uncle Xiao, leave this matter to me. You dont have to worry about it anymore.

Lin Xuns calm smile on his pretty and fair face and his indescribable confidence under the sunlight had unconsciously infected Xiao Tianren. The hesitation in his heart was instantly wiped away and he said unwaveringly, Then its decided!

That night, Lin Xun sat alone at his desk, lost in thought, as he gazed at the stars outside the window.

His cultivation had progressed without hindrance ever since the damage within his body was dealt with. Additionally, after obtaining the Omega Secret Realm, he had full confidence in his future cultivation.

Since that was the case, it seemed that he had no other reason to stay in Feiyun Village anymore.

After I deal with the villagers problems, I can continue on my journeyMister Lu, who was the one who took my Origin Aeth Artery? Where are they hiding in the Ziyao Empire now?

Lin Xun knew for a long time that he was an orphan. He had originally thought that he would never find out who his parents were but Mister Lus words suggested to him that he would learn about his parents if he found out who took his Origin Aeth Artery.

Of course, Lin Xun wasnt particularly interested in finding his parents. He only wanted to know why his Origin Aeth Artery was taken away!

He almost lost his life as a result of this, and even if he managed to survive, it almost caused him to be unable to cultivate. How could Lin Xun not bear a deep grudge?

He vowed to get revenge!

Even without Mister Lus instructions, he had to find out for himself!

Why?

Why did you take away the Origin Aeth Artery that belonged to me?

Pondering quietly, Lin Xun suddenly drew a deep breath to suppress his hatred. Having grown up in a dark and bloody mine prison, he knew that revenge was never an easy task.

From what Mister Lu had told him, his enemy seemed to be in the Ziyao Empire, but it still wouldn't be easy to get revenge.

How huge was the Ziyao Empire? What was his enemys name? What was his strength and cultivation level?

Lin Xun didnt know anything about his enemy.

But he wasnt in a hurry. He knew that one day he would achieve his goal if he worked hard!

Of course, he not only needed to survive in the Ziyao Empire first, but also become powerful!

After getting rid of Qian Qi and Lu Ting, Lin Xuns life returned to its usual normal and peaceful state. Besides teaching martial arts to the children in the village, he spent the rest of his time on his own cultivation.

Three days later.

All the Aeth grains in the village had matured and the villagers joyfully harvested them day and night.

On that day, Lin Xun finally made a breakthrough in his cultivation after more than two years and he reached the True Martial third layer, the Organ Opening Stage.

His breakthrough didnt happen deliberately. Instead, it was a natural breakthrough, like a cup naturally overflowing with water as it was filled.

That natural breakthrough proved that Lin Xun had developed a solid foundation that surpassed others and was out of the ordinary.

The Organ Opening Stage symbolized the opening of channels that led to the five organs. Each of the five major internal organs of the human body corresponded to one of the five elements - the liver to wood, the heart to fire, the spleen to earth, the lung to metal, and the kidney to water.

Therefore, this layer was also known as the Five Elements Opening Stage.

At this stage, a cultivators aeth power could circulate and cleanse the five organs, as well as nourish the meridians.

Aeth power could circulate the body nine times in the Qi Drawing Stage.

The Inner Strengthening Stage allowed aeth power to circulate the body eighteen times.

The Organ Opening allowed aeth power to circulate the body thirty-six times!

The number of aeth power cycles signified the aeth powers strength and its destructive force.

Regardless, Lin Xun had finally made a breakthrough in his cultivation after two years!

Lin Xun felt he had regained a new life. He knew that as long as he continued to progress, one day he could break the sky, shake the universe and open the gate of stars like the mysterious mighty figure!
