Nine Evolutions of the True Spirit Chapter 249 – All To Himself

"The Three Clans Island and Northern League would never have expected to see, not only Hundred Flowers Land on this barren island, but also a medium-size spirit stone vein, right Senior Brother Wen?"

But to get into the mine, the two cultivators guarding the end of the tunnel were an obstacle.

At that moment, a voice called out from outside the tunnel, "Senior Brother Wen, Senior Brother Tian, did anything happen down there?"

"No, it's all fine. Wha
