Chapter 46

nPutting down the basket, Li Fuchen jumped onto the cliff. With suction pads like a lizard, he traversed on the steep sides of the cliff.
nBefore coming to the Cang Lan Sect, Li Fuchen conveniently memorized the Li Clan's high-tier, yellow class martial art, Red Jade Palm. After dedicating some time to practice it, the Red Jade Palm was at the sub-completion stage.
nBoth the Red Jade Palm and Sword Style had the same name for its first move, Touch of Red Jade, which had the suction effect.
nThe higher one's cultivation or palm arts level was, the stronger the suction.
nLi Fuchen could lock up a few hundred kg worth of items with ease.
nUsing the suction force to ascend the cliffs was a simple task.
nLi Fuchen reached the fresh spot on the cliff with swiftness.
nThis spot was obviously cracked open during the collapses previously and was most likely how the Snow Silver ore fell into the gorge. Taking in a deep breath, Li Fuchen pressed his right hand on the crack and allowed his qi to sip in.
nLi Fuchen's soul spirit was now 80% green in color and as his perception heightened, Li Fuchen could attach his cohesive consciousness onto his qi and project it.
nWhen fishing for treasure fishes, Li Fuchen used this ability to catch all those treasure fishes.
nWith his qi within the cliff, Li Fuchen's consciousness could see everything inside of the cliff.
nSuddenly a ray of silver light was reflected into his consciousness.
nWith a grin, Li Fuchen gathered strength in his arms and gave a heavy palm strike on the surface of the cliff.
nWith the tremendous strength of the palm strike, a circle shaped crevice appeared on the cliff. The shards and pieces of rocks began to drop in profusion, exposing the dark silver ore within.
n
"Sure enough.
" Li Fuchen's eyes resonated.
nHe wasn't entirely sure that there would be Snow Silver ore inside, but he didn't want to let go of any sort of opportunities. Who knew he had such great luck and had discovered a vast amount of Snow Silver ore.
nEquipped with a steel shovel, Li Fuchen started to unearth this piece of Snow Silver ore.
nThe steel shovel weighed dozens of kg, and with Li Fuchen channelling his 1500 kg of physical strength, it became just like a divine weapon. Like scooping tofu, Li Fuchen effortlessly dug a pit in the cliff. Within the pit, was a large jar sized Snow Silver ore displayed right in front of him.
n
"This is at least 3000 kg
" Li Fuchen breathed erratically.
nThe Snow Silver ore was valued at 20 contribution points per kg, 3000 kg would be equivalent to 60,000 points!
n
"Such a big amount of Snow Silver ore is too eye-catching, along the way there will definitely be people who will kill for it. Got to split it apart and carry it back on separate trips.
"
nWith immediate action, Li Fuchen first expanded the pit to around 2 meters in height and width. He then took his steel sword and hacked off around 20% of the ore.
nLifting it up, its weight seemed to be around 700 kg.
n
"Hopefully it won't be found out.
"
nAfter pushing the portioned ore out of the pit, Li Fuchen slid down cliff.
nTilting his head up to take a look, a jut was blocking the pit and camouflaged it. Someone would notice a small hole only by examining it closely.
n
"This fated encounter is really too amazing!
"
nStoring the Snow Silver ore in his basket, Li Fuchen felt grateful.
nIt was true that finding the large Snow Silver ore was partly due to his luck, but it was mainly due to his unbelievable fate.
nLuck, by being able to find the small Snow Silver ore that fell off.
nFate, for his golden amulet that helped evolve his soul spirit. He wouldn't be that shrewd to think of whether it came from a bigger piece of ore on the cliffs.
n
n
nAnd other than that, without the golden amulet, he wouldn't be able to reach sub-completion in the Red Jade Palm and naturally couldn't ascend the cliffs.
nFate is just like the source of all power, a slight change will bring about a butterfly effect and completely change your destiny.
n***
nCarrying the Snow Silver ore, Li Fuchen followed the tracks back out of Keng Qiang Mountain.
nAlong the way, many outer sect disciples casted curious views at him.
nLooking at the deep feet impressions he left, they knew Li Fuchen carrying something heavy in his basket.
n
"It seems like you had a great harvest. Would you mind letting me see what's in it?
" An outer sect senior disciple who had a strong qi presence came over with a raised eyebrow.
nLi Fuchen stopped,
"Take a look? Sure.
"
nWithout any hesitation, Li Fuchen removed a thick cloth covering the basket.
nThe outer sect disciple peeked over the and saw that it was filled with Raw Iron ores. Some the size of eggs, some the size of fists, stacking high.
n
"Raw Iron ores, nice…
"
nA flash of disappointment could be seen on the outer sect disciple's face.
nRaw Iron ores were worth 1 point per kg, even 1000 kg would only be 1000 points.
nIf he had to provoke an outer sect disciple that doesn't seem easy to push around for just 1000 points, it would be extremely unworth it. Who knew what kind of consequences it may have.
nJust like this, Li Fuchen went through a daunting experience without mishap and arrived at the task hall of the Cang Lan Sect.
n***
n
"Snow Silver ore?
"
nThe task elder took a long time to size up Li Fuchen and knew he wasn't anyone simple. The last time was 16,000 points of treasure fishes, now there was another 10 thousand points worth of Snow Silver ore. He didn't think it was purely luck.
nChecking the inventory, the task elder said,
"Raw Iron ore, 100 kg, worth 100 points. Snow Silver ore, 780 kg, worth 15,600 points. A total of 15,700 contribution points.
"
nEven though Li Fuchen long knew he would receive around 15,000 points, but seeing the 15,700 contribution points recorded under his name, he couldn't help feel excited.
nTo finish off what he started, Li Fuchen left the task hall and headed back to Keng Qiang Mountain once again. A few days later, he came back with nearly a thousand kilos of Snow Silver ore.
nBut this time, Li Fuchen met some trouble.
nTwo eighth level Qi Realm outer sect disciples suspected Li Fuchen's basket contained other ores and wanted to rob his harvest.
nWith no other choice, Li Fuchen instantly struck down both of them.
nWith his physical strength having increased from 500 kg to 1500 kg, it improved Li Fuchen's combat ability. He was confident he wouldn't be defeated in a single move by Zhou Huailong this time.
nHad he met Luo Kai again, Li Fuchen could completely subdue him.
n
"Raw Iron ore, 50 kg. Snow Silver ore, 950 kg. A total of 19,050 contribution points.
"
nThe task elder was flabbergasted, as he suspected, that Li Fuchen found a large pile of Snow Silver ore and brought it back little by little.
n
"Li Fuchen, tell me honestly. Did you discover a large amount of Snow Silver ore?
" The task elder queried.
nLi Fuchen gave a strange look and shook his head,
"I did find quite a bit, but they are all here now.
"
n
"Really?
" The task elder looked closely at Li Fuchen, trying to spot whether Li Fuchen was telling the truth or not.
nLi Fuchen was unperturbed, and didn't expose any peculiar signs.
n
"Alright, off you go!
" The task elder had this wooden expression.
nLeaving the task hall, Li Fuchen relaxed,
"It seems during this period of time, it would be unwise to visit Keng Qiang Mountain again. I need to stay low for awhile.
"
nWith 34,750 contribution points, Li Fuchen had a surge confidence. Without any hesitation, he spent it all, redeeming a total 139 body tempering pills.
nNext, Li Fuchen dedicated a majority of his efforts on the cultivation of the Crimson Battle Frame.
