Looking at the bloody aura that was spreading out, Lin Qian's expression was gloomy as he jumped up and landed at the bottom of the lake. As for Ye Xin, she also moved lightly and followed closely behind her fiancé.
The two Gale Warriors who arrived at the bottom of the lake stood to the side and knelt down on one knee to greet Lin Qian.
Lin Qian squatted down not far from them. He carefully observed the blood-colored aura that seeped out from the cracks on the dry and cracked ground at the bottom of the lake. He carefully sensed it with his soul sense.
"This blood-colored aura can steal spiritual energy and envelop it before taking it away." Lin Qian gritted his teeth after he sensed it with his soul sense. "With this, it's no wonder the density of spiritual energy in the Southern Nine Provinces has been dropping so quickly, especially in the Linhai State."
"If that's the case, the spiritual energy in the Linhai State didn't just disappear mysteriously. It was forcefully stolen by this blood-colored aura!" Ye Xin's pretty face was as cold as ice. "Little Qian, I feel that this isn't just a natural phenomenon. There must be someone behind this."
Lin Qian also nodded in agreement. He smiled coldly at Ye Xin beside him and said, "The density of the spirit energy in Linhai Province has increased by quite a bit, and this has started to happen. I don't believe it's a coincidence."
Lin Qian then patted the ground at the bottom of the lake. He stood up and said to the Gale Warriors, "Pass on my orders. Call the Ministry of Heavenly Works and the Ministry of Fire Works in the Linhai State to come quickly."
"Yes!" The two Gale Warriors bowed and accepted the order. They turned into a flash of green light and disappeared on the spot.
Lin Qian looked up at the blood-colored lake in the sky. His eyes narrowed. His White Orchid's ice-cold soul power broke out and turned into a cold breath that turned the blood-colored lake into clear blood-colored ice crystals.
The scarlet-gold soul power turned into a lightning dragon that roared and crushed the blood-colored aura and the ice crystals. It completely disappeared from this world.
Ye Xin could clearly see the rage in Lin Qian's eyes when he looked at the blood-colored aura.
She could clearly feel how important the Hua Xia Empire was to Lin Qian. Xiao Qian would never allow any accidents to happen to the Hua Xia Empire.
The reverse scale of a dragon would be enraged if touched.
Hua Xia Empire was definitely Lin Qian's reverse scale!
After Lin Qian gave the order, the people from the Ministry of Heavenly Works and the Ministry of Fire Works arrived quickly and immediately got into the research.
As for why Lin Qian didn't directly summon the people from the Hua Xia Empire, it was because this was something that had happened in Linhai Province. The Ministry of Heavenly Works and the Ministry of Pyrotechnics were responsible for it.
As the saying goes, nothing can be accomplished without rules. Lin Qian had gradually realized that he could no longer treat the Hua Xia Empire as a game like before.
After the Scribes from the Ministry of Heavenly Works arrived, they immediately started to investigate the cracks at the bottom of the lake. The male craftsmen from the Ministry of Fire Works had already started to dredge the river so that the lake wouldn't fill up again. They also started to modify the ancient ruins at the bottom of the lake so that everyone could rest.
After all, it wouldn't take a day to investigate the abnormalities here. It would probably take a lot of time.
The female workers were in charge of cleaning and tidying up. They were the ones who had to do such meticulous work.
In just a day, the reconstruction of the ruins was completed. The female workers had also finished cleaning. Lin Qian walked around with Ye Xin.
In the ruins, there were still traces of the formation being broken. They were all done by Lin Qian's father, Emperor Lin. Everything in the ruins had been looted by him a long time ago.
From the style of the ruins at the bottom of the lake, it was obviously a treasure house. It was probably used by some force to store their wealth. That was why its location was so secretive.
After about ten days, the Ministry of Heavenly Works had a rough understanding of the blood-colored aura in the crack.
Among them, Lin Qian had used his soul sense to investigate the situation. The blood-colored aura could indeed plunder spiritual qi. Furthermore, the spiritual qi that it plundered could be directly transmitted through the blood-colored aura and sent back to the ground.
Moreover, it was very difficult to stop the blood-colored aura. Just blocking the crack at the bottom of the lake wouldn't help.
The blood-colored aura had a strong corrosive and penetrating power. Other places in the entire Linhai State were either seeping out from the ground or appearing after being absorbed by the spiritual wood.
According to the observations of the Ministry of Heavenly Works across the Southern Nine States, in comparison, the Linhai State suffered the most from the blood-colored aura. The other eight states were obviously much better off.
Moreover, the blood-colored aura that seeped out from the bottom of the lake in front of Lin Qian was especially severe.
Therefore, the Ministry of Heavenly Works speculated that the real source of the aura should be right below the bottom of the lake.
The blood-colored aura seeped out from below the ground. The only thing it could do was to seal the entire land.
With the current power of the Hua Xia Empire, it would not be a problem to do this. However, if that was the case, then the growth of the spiritual wood in the Southern Nine States would be a big problem.
In this way, although the spiritual qi in the Southern Nine States would be higher than before, it would definitely not grow to a denser level in the future. It was equivalent to directly sealing off the future growth of the Nine States.
For Lin Qian, who was obsessed with cultivation, it was simply intolerable for him to be restricted at the beginning of his cultivation.
"Directly open a hole and dig into the ground. I want to see who is playing tricks!" Lin Qian suddenly shouted as he stared at the bottom of the lake.
Ye Xin, who was next to him, stared at Lin Qian with her eyes wide open. It was obvious that she was shocked by his decision. Directly open a hole that led to the ground?
However, Ye Xin thought about it carefully and felt that it was not impossible to do so. It was probably a good idea.
Just after Lin Qian gave the order, there was a piece of news that a relic had been discovered in Lianshan State. The relic was very strange. It led straight into the ground and was so deep that the bottom could not be seen.
Jia Gong did not dare to act rashly. Therefore, he hurriedly reported to Lin Qian and let him make a decision.
"Keep an eye on this place," after Lin Qian gave the order, he summoned the imperial carriage and flew in the direction of Lianshan State with Ye Xin.
The sky of the Hua Xia Empire was now divided into flying areas. Among them, there was also a special area for Lin Qian. Now, the imperial carriage pulled by the nine Flame Hoofed Warhorses was flying in this area, heading in the direction of Lianshan State.
After arriving at the location mentioned by Jia Gong, the imperial carriage landed in a forest. The surroundings had been completely sealed off by the empire's army.
In the hinterland of the forest, a mountain wall had been completely smashed open. The rubble had been cleared, and an entrance appeared in the broken mountain wall.
Near the entrance, Jia Gong and the elders of the Eagle Mountain Sect all bowed to Lin Qian. "Greetings, Your Majesty, Empress!"
Lin Qian led Ye Xin down from the imperial carriage and came to the entrance. Looking at the thin blood-colored aura that seeped out, he frowned and asked Jia Gong, "What's the situation?"
