Thinking about the hundreds of thousands of people fighting to the death for a small mind stone mine, with numerous casualties, it was really amusing.
In just a few years, be it mind stones or beast crystals, they would all drop to an unbelievable price.
"Speaking of which, I should quickly exchange for the beast crystals in my hands. However, mind stone mine? "
A ball of light exploded out in Sōmorime's mind before quickly disappearing.
Since it was a newly discovered mind stone mine, then who knows if the mine core had been taken by someone?
Speaking of which, it was time for Little Gold to swallow beast crystals once more. However, if it changed to mind stones, it would be perfect.
Anyways, in these two days, he needed to wait for a few people nearby. Lian Fan also needed a period of time to complete what he asked of him, so it would be good to go over and take a look.
Making up his mind, Zong Shou closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, continuing to perfect the world shocking spiritual art.
When night fell, Zong Shou once again put on the set of Lightning Travelling Spirit Bone.
When he walked out of the carriage, he instinctively looked at the other carriage not far away, hesitating slightly.
Li Yunniang, who was guarding outside the carriage, instantly showed a wary expression, like an angry cat, "What do you want to do? Little Miss is in secluded meditation! "
Zong Shou's mind instinctively flashed with the image of Xuanyuan Yiren's naked body with flames spewing out around her, and his heart couldn't help but shake.
In his heart, he actually had the thought of charging in and doing something. Anyways, Li Yunniang couldn't stop him.
Following which he shook his head. Zong Shou was secretly shocked. Did she refine the Chill Spirit Mysterious Sense Pill so quickly? Now that she was in secluded meditation, she was probably solving the problem from before.
Not bothering much about it, Zong Shou directly jumped off the carriage, his body flashing as he flew forwards. Chu Xue didn't even need to say anything, immediately following behind.
Li Yunniang felt that it was strange. She wanted to drive the Wind Rider Chariot to follow them, but when she saw Zong Shou and Li Yunniang directly enter the dense forest and disappear into the hills, she could only reluctantly give up on this idea. He rolled his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Zong Shou's Thunder Running Spirit Bone made crackling sounds when he walked, but at this moment, when he ran with all his might, it was as if he was running at lightning speed, incomparably fast. Under Zong Shou's control, even if he traveled ten feet in an instant, he would not hit a tree.
However, it also consumed a lot of soul power. Zong Shou's vortex in his soul sea could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the drifting soul power. It was replenishing his soul power almost all the time. As a result, he was completely fearless, activating it with all his might. Surprisingly, Chu Xue was able to keep up with him. She was like a white shadow, sticking close to his body.
However, after the two of them ran for several tens of miles and arrived at the peak of a mountain, the disparity between them became apparent.
Chu Xue panted, her stamina and true qi were all used up. Zong Shou's expression was normal, only his eyes showed a little tiredness.
From start to finish, he did not even move a finger, relying on the external bone to move. What he used up was only soul power.
This mountain peak was seven thousand feet high, which was not considered high. However, at this place, it gave off a feeling of looking down on all the other mountains.
Casually taking out a soul stone, Zong Shou formed a hand seal. Instantly, a blue circular talisman appeared in his eyes. The things in his field of vision were swiftly pulled closer.
"All the mind stone mines are usually near the mountain range, where the earth energy is thick and where the spiritual veins gather. This place is a plain, so the most likely location is this hill. I wonder which direction the vein is in? "
Looking around, Zong Shou's eyes suddenly fixed on the south. There seemed to be a battlefield there. Looking out, it was all broken armor and corpses. Who knows how many people died in this battle, attracting numerous scavenging beasts. Occasionally, there would be the howls of wolves and beasts. In the sky, there were hundreds of giant vultures circling.
Squinting his eyes, Zong Shou searched around this area. Not long later, his line of sight was fixed on a four thousand foot high peak.
Smiling slightly, Zong Shou charged down once more. He knew that Chu Xue was unable to keep up, so he just carried her up and drove the Lightning Travelling Spirit Bone over.
A short seventy miles, in just forty-five minutes, they had already rushed over. When he got close to that small mountain, Zong Shou's body suddenly stopped. He squinted his eyes and looked into the distance.
There were two giant barracks here, clearly separated as they faced off against one another. Each barracks had hundreds of thousands of people. Just taking a look, he knew that they were all elite soldiers. Even the soldiers with the lowest combat strength were grade 2 martial warriors, no weaker than their Gantian Mountain.
Injecting soul power into his eyes, he looked into the distance. He could also see dozens of energy glows charging into the sky, mixing with the vital energy of hundreds of thousands of people.
Zong Shou couldn't help but frown slightly. In the last life, he had seen armies fighting. However, at that time he was already at the ascended realm and was a martial cultivator, so he didn't feel anything.
Looking out now, he couldn't help but feel shocked. There weren't many experts in the barracks, only tens of xiantian. However, if there were experts who knew the strength of the martial path, they could cause even Xuanwu ancestors to avoid them.
The vital energy of tens of thousands of people mixed together was the nemesis of spirit masters. If one wasn't at the return to sun realm, any spell that got close would be dissipated by the rising vital energy.
Looking on for a moment, Zong Shou laughed bitterly. This huge army was the hardest to deal with. After he awoke that day, he didn't choose to disguise himself and conceal himself to avoid being pursued, and he'd still chosen the magnificent and extremely striking Cloudcross Carriage. The reason was this.
The Cloud Stepping Foals were extremely quick, and the carriage could float in the air. Even if others knew where they were, they wouldn't be able to attack. Without a mount of the same grade, no one below xiantian master could catch up. As for those Cloud Stepping Foals, even a huge power like Gantian Mountain didn't have many of them.
However, once one was noticed, thousands or even tens of thousands of troops would surround and kill one, no matter how skilled one was, one would die.
Speaking of which, the most dangerous part of his journey back to Gantian Mountain was the latter part.
That Yunxia Mountain and Blazing Flame Mountain were only at the west of the Cloud Continent. They were hundreds of thousands of miles away from Dian Mountain. Even if they wanted him to die, they could send some elites over.
However, once he reached their territory, with the foundations of these two powers, it wasn't impossible for them to send millions of troops to surround and kill him.
To return safely, he needed to find some Windrider Foals as backup.
He totally gave up on the idea of using the Hidden Shadow Spell to sneak in. Zong Shou didn't give up just like that. A mind stone mine spread out tens of miles. He didn't have to choose this place to enter.
After retreating for several miles, Zong Shou started to set up the formation. Nearby was the army camp, and there were tens of xiantian masters. He didn't dare to make too much noise. He hastily set up tens of runes and placed 12 grade 3 beast crystals.
Chu Xue was at the side and had already recovered some stamina. At this moment, she was just standing there quietly. Although she was curious, she didn't say a word. Looking at Zong Shou activating the spell and chanting, the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled. Suddenly, the ground beneath his feet began to sway slightly, and a muffled cracking sound rang out as a dozen or so cracks appeared on the ground. With the spiritual formation under Zong Shou's feet as the starting point, it swiftly spread out. A few of them were thicker and stretched towards the south. However, it was the opposite of the direction of the two army camps.
Along with the 12 earth element beast crystals exploding, only then did Zong Shou stop his hand signs and chanting. His expression was cold as he looked at the direction of the cracks.
A few hundred years later, the cloud world and the other worlds started to be connected.
Some of the cloud world's specialties started to spread out to other worlds. The secret manuals of other worlds, talisman spells and some rare items were also grasped by the people of the cloud world.
At this moment, what Zong Shou was using was an earth element spell passed down from other worlds, the Spirit Searching Technique. It had no other use, only being able to identify mind stone mines. Its effects were really effective.
In these close to a hundred years, the mind stone mines that were found in the cloud world dried up in just three thousand years.
The reason why there were still mind stones appearing in Zong Shou's era was because of trading with other worlds. Secondly, relying on this spell, one would be able to find some small sized mind stone mines.
"… It is actually a grade 2 mine!"
Zong Shou was deep in thought as he looked at where the two army camps were. These hundreds of thousands of people didn't even find the mine, and they started to kill each other just for a branch vein?
After laughing involuntarily, Zong Shou continued to focus and look at the cracks.
The mind stones here were really scattered, so he wasn't willing to spend effort to search for them. He was only looking for the possible location of the mine core.
The results were really delightful. Each mine core was the essence of an entire mine gathered. The surroundings were often covered in mind stones, filled with spiritual energy.
At this moment, the cracks on the ground could be seen at one glance. One could easily deduce which area was filled with spiritual energy. There was only one area where there might be a mind stone mine core.
However, below there was a broken mark. The situation behind it couldn't be seen.
"Seventy feet below is actually an underground river …"
Zong Shou couldn't help but feel a headache. Luckily, he had confirmed the location, and he just needed to spend some effort.
They dashed towards the south, passing through the dense forest. After twenty miles, Zong Shou stopped.
At this moment, Chu Xue's face was filled with shock. She followed Zong Shou around the mountain for the entire night. Who knew what they were going to do?
Zong Shou rolled up his sleeves and was about to pull out his lightning tooth sword to dig a hole. Only then did he remember that he was an out of body realm spirit master. Why would he need to personally do it?
With a thought, Zong Shou found three pieces of granite that were roughly the height of a person and of slightly better quality. First, he used spiritual ink to draw a talisman formation, burying five grade 3 earth element beast crystals and two beast spirit stones.
As he chanted, Zong Shou's hands formed a seal. These three pieces of granite instantly cracked open. Heads and limbs appeared one after another. In just a moment, three giant stone puppets suddenly stood up from the ground. They were roughly twenty feet tall, their bodies burly and muscular, extremely strong. (To be continued.
