"A third-rate force?" Su Yi was startled.
For a third-rate force, a hundred miles was already under the other party's nose.
It could even be said that the location of the mine might be within the jurisdiction of that force.
If that was the case, once there was a movement, it would likely attract trouble at that time!
"That's right, a third-rate force called the Heavenly Spider Sect. Overall, it's about the same level as the Gimdao Sect, "Nangong Ningyue said again.
Su Yi frowned slightly. He still had some impression of the Heavenly Spider Sect. He had seen it during the Alliance Conference's preliminaries.
However, this force wasn't too strong. At most, it was at the middle level of a third-rate force. It didn't obtain the qualifications to enter the conference and become one of the top ten third-rate forces.
Su Yi thought for a while and said, "Let's be careful to avoid new problems."
A third-rate force, the Bawang Sect, was no longer afraid. However, once the news of the primordial stone mine was leaked, it would be a real problem.
However, there was no better way at the moment. Some things could only be avoided with effort, but if something really happened, Su Yi wouldn't be afraid.
The group of people rode on the flying barbaric beasts and moved quickly.
Under Su Yi's instructions, the Flaming Winged Demonic Tiger, the Golden Lion Vulture, and the others were all extremely low-key. They didn't emit a vast aura to avoid attracting the attention of others.
Along the way, they encountered some weak barbaric beasts, but they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of them and all avoided them.
Just as Nangong Ningyue said, they spent almost a day and finally arrived at a continuous mountain range.
"This place is called the Abundant Spirit Mountain Range. It's a little famous in the nearby area because many spiritual medicines of high grade have appeared here, but nothing too shocking has been produced. Therefore, this mountain range is only a little famous. For many rogue cultivators, it may be a rare treasure hunting ground, but generally, sects of a slightly larger scale may look down on it! "
On the back of the Flaming Winged Demonic Tiger, Nangong Ningyue turned her head and said to Su Yi and the others.
Under the gazes of the crowd, the mountain range below was extremely vast. It was like a coiling dragon that stretched far into the distance, and one could not see the end of it.
On top of all the mountain ranges, there were clusters of plants growing. There were towering trees as well as messy shrubs.
In some mountain valleys, one could vaguely see some savage beasts roaming about. However, their overall strength was not too strong.
In short, at a glance, Su Yi and the others only felt that this mountain range was very ordinary. At most, it could only be said that the spirit qi was slightly denser. Although similar places were not everywhere, it was still very easy to find.
Hearing Nangong Ningyue's words, Su Yi understood that no one cared about this place most of the time. At most, some young sect disciples would come here to gain experience, but this didn't matter.
"Where is the exact location of the Primordial Stone Mine? Let's go and investigate!" Su Yi nodded and asked directly.
"It's still a little bit earlier. At that time, I only roughly determined some things, and then I was chased by the people of the Seven Star Sword School. So this time, we have to re-explore to really understand the specific situation of this mine. "
Nangong Ningyue said and signaled several savage beasts to land on the ground. Dozens of people all stood in a valley, surrounded by endless dense forests.
Nangong Ningyue took out a compass-like object from the space bag. It was the size of two palms and was held in her hand.
When the Primordial Qi was poured into it, a misty light was emitted from the compass. Brighter light spots were like naughty little insects. They quickly swam around the compass, fluctuating with a mysterious aura.
"This is probably similar to the surveying method of my previous life, right?"
Looking at Nangong Ningyue's movements, Su Yi couldn't help but think so.
Nangong Ningyue said that this skill was passed down in her family. There weren't many people who really knew it. She could only be regarded as a beginner.
Su Yi knew that there weren't many methods to take the initiative to find Primordial Stone Mines in the world. However, those big forces would have their own skills to pass down.
"Swish swish swish …"
On the compass in Nangong Ningyue's hand, the light spots kept flickering and running. Her face was covered with sweat, and her Primordial Qi consumption was extremely fast.
After about half an incense stick's time, the light spots on the compass finally all stopped.
There were about seven or eight light spots, arranged in a strange way, showing a mysterious pattern.
Su Yi glanced at it and was completely clueless. The others, including Xi Wuqing, were also clueless. They couldn't understand it no matter how hard they tried.
"Huff …"
Nangong Ningyue let out a long breath. After resting for a moment, her figure flashed and landed on a small hill in front of her.
"Dig five feet down here!"
Nangong Ningyue pointed and signaled the disciples of the Bawang Sect to dig.
Dozens of people obeyed the order and spent some time digging out a five-foot pit in the soil on the hillside. Some rock layers appeared.
Nangong Ningyue directly jumped into the large pit and chiseled some rocks. She held it in her hand and carefully sized it up.
"Let's go!"
After a while, Nangong Ningyue jumped into the large pit and rushed to another place. Su Yi, Merciless West, Little Handsome Su, Purple Elephant Emperor, and the others quickly followed.
They changed places. Nangong Ningyue took out the compass again and urged her Primordial Qi to pour into it again.
Not long after, she had people dig a large pit again. After entering the large pit, she even tasted the soil inside.
Just like this, Nangong Ningyue changed dozens of places in a row. Every place she went, she would repeat these operations.
Her Primordial Qi consumption was enormous. At first, it was still okay. She could swallow Qi Replenishing Medicinal Pills to recover, but gradually, the Qi Replenishing Medicinal Pills were somewhat unable to support her.
Su Yi simply gave her a bottle of spirit liquid again, allowing Nangong Ningyue to quickly recover.
Time passed quickly. Unknowingly, the night deepened, and then dawn appeared.
Almost a day's time passed before they finished all the work. And Su Yi and the others also saw that a hint of relief appeared on Nangong Ningyue's face. At the same time, there was also some joy.
"Sect Master, I've already surveyed the approximate location of the essence stone mine! Overall, roughly a radius of ten miles is a mining area. The amount of essence stones hidden inside should be quite a lot! "Nangong Ningyue said.
"A mining area with a radius of ten miles!"
Su Yi, Merciless West, and the others were all stunned when they heard that.
This could be said to be a very large mining area. The scale was not small. As long as there were no accidents, they would harvest a lot of essence stones.
"Very good!"
Su Yi nodded his head incessantly, incomparably excited in his heart. Immediately, he asked again, "Then can you determine what grade the essence stones here are? Are there second-grade, third-grade, or even fourth-grade?"
His two eyes shone, looking at the woman in front of him expectantly.
Nangong Ningyue was somewhat uncomfortable being looked at by Su Yi like this. She smiled helplessly and said, "Sect Master, do you think that high-grade essence stones are cabbages in the field? How can they be so easy to find? What comes out of a normal mine are first-grade essence stones. There might be a portion of second-grade essence stones. If you're lucky, it's normal to have a few third-grade essence stones! But you opened your mouth and said fourth-grade essence stones. This... "
Not only Nangong Ningyue, but Merciless West, Purple Elephant Emperor, and the others also rolled their eyes at the same time. Their sect master's thoughts seemed to be a little too big.
"Heh heh..
. "Su Yi smiled embarrassedly and did not say anything more.
Of course, he knew that what he said was a bit excessive. But imagining it, there was even more anticipation in his heart.
"The specific grade of essence stones, after we start mining, we'll have some conclusions. As for high-grade essence stones, there might be, but we can't have too much hope. That's something that can be encountered but not sought. "
Nangong Ningyue said again. Right now, the essence stones had not been mined yet. Therefore, there were many things that she could not say.
"Okay, then let's start preparing to mine!"
Su Yi nodded, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and began to look at the surrounding situation.
Under normal circumstances, there would not be too many people coming down from this mountain range. But once their Bawang Sect began to mine essence stones, it might be safe for a short time. But after a long time, someone would inevitably know.
Therefore, the defense here was a problem.
In addition, now that the Bawang Sect did not have enough manpower, they might need to recruit some rogue cultivators to act as miners.
"I'll explore again and see where to start mining!" Nangong Ningyue said.
After speaking, she began to run again and continued to explore.
Su Yi and the others could not help much, but they all followed behind.
The group of people began to move about in this area. It was also during this period that a group of people from nearby also came to this place.
This group of people was led by an old man, and there were five to six hundred young and middle-aged people around him. It was a large group of people.
The most eye-catching thing was that these people were riding on their mounts. They were huge spiders that were at least five feet tall. Each spider had black and red stripes on its body, which looked extremely terrifying!
All the spiders added together, there were at least a hundred of them.
"Elder, is the news obtained by the sect accurate? Did they really find an essence stone mineral deposit?"
On the back of the spider, among the crowd, a young disciple asked the old man in the lead.
There was also a strong sense of excitement in his words.
"Of course it's true. Our trip is to take the lead and completely occupy this place to avoid any unexpected changes."
The old man with a grizzled beard nodded and said affirmatively, "You don't have to doubt this matter. This is also a huge opportunity for our Heavenly Spider Sect! Some powerhouses have already surveyed it. It is said that the grade of this mineral deposit is not low, and the scale is not small! "
"That's great!" Many disciples around the old man were also overjoyed.
"You bunch of little kids, put in more effort. As long as the matter here is done well, the sect will naturally not lack your benefits!"
The old man glanced at the surrounding crowd and said.
"Yes, Elder Xun!" The disciples all responded respectfully.
