Actually, from the beginning, Feng Jun never intended to take over the large mine all by himself; he had always planned to cooperate with the Xuanhuang Sect.
The mine was indeed too large to be fully exploited in a short time. If it were to be discovered by other Human Cultivators in the future, cooperation would be inevitable—even conflicts might arise.
So after bargaining with True Sage Diao Sou for quite some time, they eventually decided to split the large mine fifty-fifty—after all, on the same planet, they could easily demarcate their respective areas.
For the three smaller mines, Feng Jun would present two to get rewards, as a form of repayment for granting him the opportunity.
True Sage Diao Sou's attempt to pressure him seemed to have failed, but by granting Feng Jun the opportunity, it did impose some limitations in a certain sense.
Then he notified other cultivators, saying that Feng Jun had brought energy stones and that everyone could come for transactions.
