**
As Wei Yang's palm clenched in midair, a surge of suction force burst out. Immediately, large chunks of soil erupted from the pit, then were casually tossed aside by him.
Under this violent suction, the pit grew deeper and deeper. When it had been dug to five or six zhang deep, there was still no sign of anything.
Wei Yang's expression did not change, and he continued to intensify the force of his suction.
After digging another zhang or so, Wei Yang's eyes suddenly narrowed, landing on the pile of soil he had pulled out from underground.
Squatting down, he grabbed a handful of dirt. As it touched his hand, he felt a dampness, and amidst the moisture there faintly emanated a strange kind of energy.
Sensing the anomaly within the soil, Wei Yang's lips curved into a faint smile. With this discovery, he once again stood up. His hand curled into a claw, then reached down toward the depths of the pit, clawing incessantly. With each grab, the pit grew deeper and deeper.
Bang!
After Wei Yang's continuous digging for several minutes, a muffled sound finally echoed from the soft depths of the earth.
Sensing this, Wei Yang's spirit lifted slightly. His figure flickered, and he leapt straight into the pit.
Whoosh~
A cluster of green flames slowly lit up within the dark pit, its gentle radiance illuminating the bottom with vibrant life force.
Wei Yang's figure landed at the pit's bottom. He squatted, and with a sweep of his sleeve, a gust of wind blew away the surface layer of soil.
Immediately, a snow-white jade stone was revealed. Wei Yang's eyes narrowed as they fell on the jade stone, and a smile emerged on his face.
"As expected, it's the Core Mother Jade!"
The Core Mother Jade was a wondrous jade stone, formed only after countless years of condensation by the power of the earth.
Because of the unique steadiness and heaviness of earth power, the Core Mother Jade was an invaluable treasure to cultivators.
When cultivating or refining pills, having a seat carved from Core Mother Jade would suppress raging energy in the body, providing remarkable stability. With this thing, the chances of qi deviation would be reduced to the lowest.
"A fine treasure. In the future, I'll forge it into a jade platform for the two little ones to use in cultivation." Wei Yang chuckled.
Children were most prone to restlessness during cultivation. Their breath would easily grow chaotic, and even the circulation of their techniques could go off track, leading to qi deviation.
Because children were naturally lively and lacked stability, elders always had to watch over them closely during cultivation.
But with a jade platform forged from the Core Mother Jade, it would save much worry in the future. Placing his hand on the exposed piece of Core Mother Jade, Wei Yang gripped tightly and gave a hard pull.
Rumble~
Soil exploded outward instantly.
The Core Mother Jade was wrenched out from the ground by Wei Yang's sheer force.
When it was fully unearthed, Wei Yang realized this piece was about half a zhang tall, less than a meter in diameter, and weighed several thousand jin. Such a massive Core Mother Jade was nearly impossible to find in the outside world.
"Not bad, not bad. With this, the two little ones will be able to cultivate with twice the results for half the effort."
Looking at its size, Wei Yang nodded with a smile.
With this much material, ten or so jade platforms could easily be made. With a thought, the Core Mother Jade floated before him in midair. As he withdrew his hand, he noticed it was covered with a viscous, faint jade liquid.
Wei Yang carefully separated the liquid with his Dou Qi, gathering it into a pale white droplet that hovered in his palm.
"As expected, its Core Soul Marrow!"
If the Core Mother Jade was already hard enough to form, then the so-called Core Soul Marrow was something even rarer.
This was an extraordinarily rare treasure of heaven and earth, with effects that carried irresistible allure. Because it could strengthen the soul, temper the soul, and wash away its impurities.
Wei Yang had long heard of its reputation, but until now he had only known it by name, never seen it. For Xian'er right now, this item would be of tremendous use.
With it, her chances of breaking through to the Spirit Realm would immediately rise by fifty percent!
Wei Yang placed the pale white droplet into a jade bottle and stored it away. Then, with a wave of his hand, he collected the entire Core Mother Jade into his storage ring.
This Core Soul Marrow could not be consumed directly. It required the combination and blending of other medicinal ingredients to fully unleash its greatest effect.
Fortunately, although the auxiliary herbs needed for blending were also rare, in Holy Pill City they were not considered too difficult to find.
What's more, this Pill Realm itself was a paradise for growing medicinal plants. With some luck, it was very possible to gather all the necessary auxiliary herbs right here in the Pill Realm.
By then, maybe, just like in the original story with Xiao Yan, Xian'er could break through to the Spirit Realm right here in the Pill Realm.
"This Pill Realm truly lives up to its name as a paradise for alchemists. Not bad, not bad."
Wei Yang lightly brushed his storage ring with his fingers, a satisfied smile on his face.
After all, Xian'er's soul realm had always been something that gave him headaches. Now, that issue was finally solved.
With a tap of his toes on the pit bottom, his figure shot upward like a flash, landing steadily at the edge of the pit.
With a casual wave of his hand, the surrounding soil rolled back and poured down, quickly filling and covering the deep pit entirely.
"Hopefully, countless years from now, this place can once again give birth to another piece of Core Mother Jade for those who come after." Wei Yang clapped his hands, speaking in good spirits.
Of course, that possibility was not very high.
After finishing this, Wei Yang turned around, his gaze locking on a spot in the empty void as he spoke faintly, "Come out."
"Hehe, such sharp perception, little friend. But treasures of heaven and earth are meant to be shared. I don't ask for much. Just give me forty percent, how about it?"
A chuckle drifted through the air. The space ahead twisted and rippled, and a yellow-robed old man stepped out.
"Forty percent? You're really not greedy, are you?" Wei Yang's lips curved into a half-smile.
"Little friend, judging by your tone, don't tell me you plan to take it all for yourself? That would be rather improper, wouldn't it?" The yellow-robed old man frowned slightly.
"Improper? You little yellow sparrow, hiding and watching for so long, waiting to play the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole waits behind?" Wei Yang sneered.
"Hehe, little friend jests. This old man only just arrived, happened to pass by, and sensed battle fluctuations here, so I came to have a look. Who would have thought I'd run into such fortune."
"A treasure like the Core Soul Marrow, for us to stumble upon right after entering the Pill Realm, we must be truly lucky, don't you think?"
The yellow-robed old man's face was full of smiles, but within that smile lurked a trace of coldness. "I am Huang Yi. I wonder, little friend, have you heard the name?"
"But it doesn't matter if you haven't. I know you are also a Dou Zong expert, so I don't wish to fight you and sour relations. Just give me forty percent of the Core Soul Marrow and I'll leave immediately. Hmm, thirty percent will do as well."
The yellow-robed old man had already sensed Wei Yang's aura — the peak of Nine-Star Dou Zong.
Wei Yang, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles and wasted time, had deliberately let out a faint trace of his aura not long ago.
The yellow-robed old man, however, was only a Seven-Star Dou Zong. Thus, when facing Wei Yang, he couldn't help but feel wary. But still...
"If you and I fight, the commotion might attract other experts. At that time, little friend, you might be the one in real trouble."
The old man's words carried an obvious warning — a threat for Wei Yang not to act recklessly.
"You're threatening me? Interesting." Wei Yang laughed.
But then, his expression suddenly turned cold. His figure blurred, transforming into a streak of light as he shot toward the yellow-robed old man floating in the sky. His right hand slowly extended from the wide sleeve of his robe, pressing gently forward.
Roar~
A small black dragon of thunder and flame appeared. As the violent energy of heaven and earth surged toward it, its body instantly expanded with the wind, its aura growing incomparably ferocious.
This single strike caused the yellow-robed old man's face to change drastically. An intense sense of danger flooded his heart.
