Every activation of the teleportation array consumes a significant amount of materials.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the sect rarely uses the teleportation array.

However, the Sect Master personally arranged a teleportation array for Chu Xinghe to travel to Spirit Vein Mountain.

Although it was Qin Xiangqian's second time using the teleportation array, when the light faded and everyone appeared at Spirit Vein Mountain, he almost vomited due to his low cultivation level.

Having used it twice, Chu Xinghe naturally had no major reaction, and the other junior brothers and sisters, though affected, were much better than the first time.

"President Qin, you can't neglect your cultivation just because of the Chamber of Commerce."

Ma Liang chuckled as he looked at Qin Xiangqian, who was on the verge of fainting from nausea.

Qin Xiangqian was at a loss whether to laugh or cry... Young Master, do you think I'm like you, an inner disciple with extraordinary talent, a chosen one? I'm just an outer disciple with no achievements, sent to the Chamber of Commerce. If I had any talent for cultivation, who the hell would go to the Chamber of Commerce?

The teleportation array landed directly at Spirit Vein Mountain, and Chu Xinghe unhesitatingly shared the purpose of their visit with every junior brother and sister.

Although he advised them not to leak the information, his heart was filled with anticipation.

Unfortunately, the seriousness on everyone's faces made Chu Xinghe realize that his junior brothers and sisters might disappoint him.

"Rest assured, Senior Brother Xinghe, this matter is of great importance, and we will not leak a single word. We will not betray your trust," Ma Liang promised, patting his chest.

The other junior brothers and sisters nodded heavily.

Such a big secret, and Senior Brother Xinghe told us without hesitation. If we were to leak it, would we still be human?

Senior Brother Xinghe trusts us so much!

We absolutely cannot let Senior Brother Xinghe down.

This feeling of being trusted is really nice...

Spirit Vein Mountain is a mountain range at the southernmost part of the Blazing Sun Continent, known for its abundant spirit stones.

Various sects have their own spirit mines here.

In a semi-dazed state, Qin Xiangqian forced himself to lead the way for everyone.

After half a day into Spirit Vein Mountain, they arrived at their destination, Spirit City.

Spirit City is the largest city within Spirit Vein Mountain, and it's where the various sects' chambers of commerce are located. The raw stones mined from Spirit Vein Mountain are transported to each sect's base here.

Various transactions also take place here.

The raw stones from spirit mines aren't directly spirit stones; they need to undergo a process called "stone pointing" to become spirit stones.

The Shi family, one of the three major families, made their fortune through stone pointing and is the most skilled in this art.

The saying "All spirit stones come from the Shi family" is not an exaggeration.

After the spirit stones are produced, they are transported to Spirit City for stone pointing before being sent to the various sects.

So, although Spirit City isn't very large, it is the place with the most spirit stones in the world.

The Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce's base is also in the bustling east district of Spirit City. Qin Xiangqian brought all the members of the Grand Sky Chamber of Commerce branch to meet Chu Xinghe.

If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.

When some of the young people in the Chamber of Commerce heard that the person in front of them was Chu Xinghe, their eyes lit up.

The name Chu Xinghe had spread far and wide in recent days, especially among the younger generation, who all admired him.

However, compared to the admiration of the young, some of the higher-ups in the Chamber of Commerce who knew the specifics of the No. 1 spirit mine were anxious.

They pulled Qin Xiangqian aside.

"President... didn't you inform the sect about the No. 1 spirit mine?"

"I did!"

"Then... why hasn't the sect sent anyone to handle this matter?" The higher-ups were puzzled.

This is a crucial issue. Logically, the sect should have sent a high-ranking elder to handle it immediately.

"Aren't they here now?"

"What? President, are you saying... Chu Xinghe?"

The higher-ups were confused, even doubting whether the president had clearly communicated with the sect.

The No. 1 spirit mine was exhausted, and choosing a new spirit mine required a huge investment. Such an important matter was entrusted to Chu Xinghe?

Is this a joke?

But soon, after Qin Xiangqian quietly explained everything that happened in the Grand Sky Sect to the higher-ups, everyone fell silent.

The Sect Master personally issued the Grand Sky Token, giving Chu Xinghe full authority to handle this matter?

Not even an elder was sent along. This completely overturned everyone's worldview.

Allowing such a young disciple to handle this matter, isn't the sect afraid that a mistake by Chu Xinghe could cause a huge loss?

What are the big shots in the sect thinking?

The higher-ups couldn't understand, but Qin Xiangqian figured it out.

In their eyes, the spirit mine was of great importance, but in the sect's eyes, the spirit mine was clearly not as important as Senior Brother Xinghe.

So even knowing that Senior Brother Xinghe was young and might make mistakes in handling this matter, the sect still unhesitatingly entrusted it to Chu Xinghe, giving him a chance to handle a major issue independently.

Even if it gets messed up this time, the sect is willing to buy a lesson for Chu Xinghe.

The sect is grooming Chu Xinghe as the future leader of the Grand Sky Sect.

After meeting Chu Xinghe, everyone went about their own work, while Qin Xiangqian brought two deputies to see Chu Xinghe.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, these are the materials we previously collected on spirit mines available for purchase. Please have a look."

The materials were opened, clearly detailing the specifics of various spirit mines for sale, including location, output, and potential mining duration.

"President Qin, you've worked hard."

Chu Xinghe glanced at it briefly but secretly shook his head.

It's not that the spirit mines listed were unsuitable, but they were too suitable!

Are these the spirit mines he wanted?

Look at this one... although it's the most expensive, the spirit stones it produces aren't much different from the No. 1 mine, and with deeper mining, it might even surpass it.

If they bought this, wouldn't the Grand Sky Sect make a fortune?

Can such a promising spirit mine be bought?

And this one... although its output isn't as good as the No. 1 mine, it has potential for the future, and it's cheap, making it the most suitable purchase.

This is even worse; buying this, how can he ensure the sect suffers a loss?

So Chu Xinghe shook his head repeatedly. Qin Fujiang, oh Qin Fujiang, you've disappointed me a bit this time.

"What's this one that's crossed out?" Ma Liang pointed to one that was crossed out.

"Senior Brother Ma Liang, this spirit mine was previously discovered by the Shi family and is the Tianyi Spirit Mine, which produced those fake raw stones last time. Now it's considered a depleted mine."

A depleted mine?

Hearing this, Chu Xinghe's eyes lit up!

This isn't just a depleted mine; it's my dream mine!

Last time, the Tianyi Spirit Mine produced a large number of raw stones, nearly causing the various sects to vomit blood. If not for his accidental discovery, the Grand Sky Sect would have been scammed terribly.

Having missed the opportunity last time, Chu Xinghe vowed not to miss it a second time!

The Tianyi Spirit Mine, huh!

The name alone suggests it's no ordinary mine! Tianyi, Tianyi, the best in the world!

Where else could he find such a perfect spirit mine?

"Is the Tianyi Spirit Mine for sale?" Chu Xinghe asked seriously.

"The Shi family put it up for sale a few days ago, but Senior Brother Xinghe, you know, this mine has scammed countless people. Who would be foolish enough to buy it? I heard the Shi family is planning to take it off the market soon!"

"That won't do! We'll buy it!"

Everyone: "???"

"Uh, Senior Brother Xinghe, the Tianyi Spirit Mine has been proven to be a depleted mine, and the Shi family might soon take it off the market..."

"So contact the Shi family quickly and buy it. We won't haggle, and if necessary, we'll pay extra. If we don't buy it now, we won't get another chance!"

Chu Xinghe was anxious; this was his dream mine. If he missed this, where would he find a mine more troublesome than this?

Qin Xiangqian was dumbfounded... the higher-ups in the Chamber of Commerce were equally bewildered.

Even Ma Liang couldn't help but speak up, "Senior Brother Xinghe, the Tianyi Spirit Mine doesn't seem appropriate."

"It's perfect! President Qin, you must handle this immediately. It's the Tianyi Spirit Mine!" Chu Xinghe was so anxious that he even took out the Grand Sky Token.

Seeing the glowing Grand Sky Token, Qin Xiangqian was moved to tears, but then he seemed to realize something. He glanced at Chu Xinghe; Senior Brother Xinghe wasn't someone who acted recklessly.

Last time, because he didn't understand Senior Brother Xinghe's intentions, he ended up with so many raw stones that he had to use all his resources to cover the losses. So this time... could it be that Senior Brother Xinghe had discovered something unexpected?

It didn't seem like it... Senior Brother Xinghe hadn't even looked at the Tianyi Spirit Mine since arriving, yet he was determined to buy it? This was too mysterious.

Qin Xiangqian was anxious, but with the Grand Sky Token out, how could he disobey? He could only follow Chu Xinghe's instructions.

But as he left the base, the two higher-ups with him stopped him.

"President, this seems reckless... should we report to the sect?"

The deputies were almost in tears. Previously, buying a spirit mine involved extensive investigation, evidence collection, and analysis, taking at least two to three months before making a decision. Chu Xinghe had been here for just one day and wanted to buy the Tianyi Spirit Mine, deemed a depleted mine by the Shi family? This was madness!

Qin Xiangqian's eyes were firm as he shook his head, "The Sect Master personally said that Senior Brother Xinghe has full authority. We just need to follow orders."

"But..."

"No more words, let's go! We're heading to the Shi family!"

Qin Xiangqian took the deputies and headed straight to the Shi family's base in Spirit City.

When the Shi family's representative in Spirit City heard that Qin Xiangqian wanted to buy the Tianyi Spirit Mine, he was stunned.

Did the Grand Sky Sect get kicked in the head by a donkey?

But regardless of whether the Grand Sky Sect had lost its mind, the Shi family representative was moved to tears. The Shi family had invested heavily in the Tianyi Spirit Mine when it was discovered.

Now that it was found to be a depleted mine, the Shi family had put it up for sale, but no one would take it. Just when the Shi family was in despair, the Grand Sky Sect wanted to buy it?

Faced with such a gullible buyer, the Shi family representative brought out his best tea, treasured for twenty years, and personally brewed a strong cup for Qin Xiangqian, nodding and bowing as he spoke, not out of fear of Qin Xiangqian, but simply afraid the fool would come to his senses and back out.

The negotiations went smoothly, and all details were quickly finalized.

The fastest spirit mine transaction in history was born on the first day of Chu Xinghe's arrival at Spirit Vein Mountain...
