Wei Suo pondered for a moment before asking, "Uncle Chen, did you go to that ominous vein of demonic runes again?"
The cultivator surnamed Chen nodded. "I naturally wanted to know what happened to the Sky Sword Sect at that ominous vein. That's why I collected several concealment artifacts a few years ago and explored it once. However, the Heavenly Sword Sect had already sealed off the area within a radius of several thousand kilometers around the ominous vein. I hid in the periphery for many days and felt that there were many bright lights that soared into the sky from time to time. It seemed like there was a large-scale excavation going on. There seemed to be a lot of cultivators inside. Furthermore, I also saw a treasure light that only appears when a large amount of spirit stones are unearthed. It seems that no matter what happened, the Sky Sword Sect at least found a spirit stone mine that contained a large amount of spirit stones. Many cultivators were stationed there and mining day and night. I stayed there for many days. From time to time, I would see small groups of Heavenly Sword Sect cultivators flying out from the ominous vein and hurrying on their way. Many of them had quite a few storage pouches on them. They were probably responsible for transporting spirit stones back to the Heavenly Sword Sect. However, because my cultivation was too low, I didn't dare to approach the place, so I didn't know what was going on inside. "
"The Sky Sword Sect also has The Great And Mighty. Little Brother, with your cultivation, it's impossible for you to fight your way into the Sky Sword Sect. Furthermore, the Sky Sword Sect is located in the depths of the Profound Sky Continent. Even if you cause a huge ruckus there and take advantage of it, you won't be able to escape. The Profound Wind Sect and the True Martial Sect will both participate in the hunt. However, the ominous vein here is also located in the depths of the Wilderness. It's a good opportunity to explore the Beimang Ruins. After you take care of the Sky Sword Sect's spirit stone mine, you can cross the Wilderness and rush to the Cloud Spirit Continent. "The Old Man In Green Clothes's voice sounded in Weisuo's ears.
Weisuo didn't say anything. That was exactly what he was thinking.
There was a treasure light that would only appear when a large amount of spirit stones were unearthed from the demonic vein, indicating that there was an astonishing amount of spirit stones in this place. Even if it wasn't enough to directly oppose the Heavenly Sword Sect, destroying this spirit stone mine of the Heavenly Sword Sect would be equivalent to severing an extremely important source of resources for the Heavenly Sword Sect, which would also be a heavy blow to the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Most importantly, Weisuo had always wanted to visit the place where his parents had died. After so many years, he knew that no matter how powerful his abilities were, he couldn't change the fact that his parents had died. However, he wanted to at least see where they had died.
"By the way, Uncle Chen, why are you collecting Adamantine Ore here?" Weisuo suddenly thought of this and couldn't help but ask.
Just now, the old man told him that there were a total of 16 cultivators looking for Vajra Essence Ore in this Vajra Essence Ore Mine. But now, including this cultivator surnamed Chen, there were only 7 cultivators. The fact that the remaining nine cultivators didn't have a head could only mean one thing: the remaining nine cultivators weren't very strong. Otherwise, no matter how deep they went, Wei Suo's aura and his spell technique would have shaken the heavens and earth. As long as they were cultivators at the third or fourth tier of the Split Thought Realm or above, they would definitely have sensed it and come out.
There wasn't even a cultivator above the third or fourth layer of the Split Thought Realm, yet this group of people dared to collect Adamantine Ore here. This in itself was a little strange. Moreover, when he thought of how so many cultivators pleaded for this cultivator with the surname Chen, Weisuo felt even more strange.
"They were also forced to collect Adamantine Ore here, just like us." The cultivator with the surname Chen bitterly smiled.
"What's going on?" Weisuo's eyebrows twitched. He was a rogue cultivator of the lowest level and hated people like Dong Qingyi and Xu Qianhuan the most. They were people who didn't put ordinary cultivators in their eyes. Especially what happened to his parents, this made him hate this kind of thing even more.
"This Fellow Daoist Lu Qi also knows some meridian searching techniques." The cultivator with the surname Chen pointed at the white-haired old man beside him. "They were originally rogue cultivators working in a trading company in Ancient Cave City. When the Beast Chao attacked, they hid near Zhuji City and encountered several cultivators from the Long Qiong Sect. Those cultivators placed restrictions on them and ordered them to collect 500 kilograms of Vajra Essence Ore within a month before they were allowed to leave. I just happened to pass by and met them, so I stopped here and used some meridian searching techniques to help them collect Adamantine Ore. "
"What kind of sect is the Long Qiong Sect?" Weisuo looked at the old man and the other cultivators and asked.
"It's a medium-sized sect in Yuqiong City. They don't have Jin Dan cultivators, but the cultivators who forced them were all elders of the Long Qiong Sect. They were all at the fourth or fifth level of the Split Thought Realm. Even with me, we weren't a match for them, so I could only do my best and see if I could help them collect enough Adamantine Ore." The cultivator with the surname Chen bitterly smiled.
"I think that even if you helped them collect enough Adamantine Ore, these Long Qiong Sect cultivators might not let them go. Who knows, they might even force them to do other things." Weisuo's eyes were filled with anger. "This kind of sect that doesn't even have a Jin Dan cultivator dares to do such a thing."
"The cultivation world has always been like this. Those with high cultivation will suppress those with low cultivation, and those with background will suppress those without." The cultivator with the surname Chen looked at Weisuo and said, "The northern part of the Profound Sky Continent is being held back by the beasts, so most of the sects didn't dare to come here. But now that they're completely in chaos, no one cares at all.
"The heavens are about to completely collapse, and the positions of cultivators and beasts are about to completely change. Cultivators still have to bully and fight each other."
This thought first appeared in Weisuo's mind, but then he silently shook his head. This was because he knew very well that this kind of situation could not be changed. This was also the reason why he didn't want to spread the news that the Heavens were about to Shouyuan to the outside world. Because if this news were to spread, the big sects would definitely benefit. Those big sects would definitely do their utmost to gather resources. The big fish would eat the small fish, and they would do their utmost to ensure their own safety. With the impending calamity, these sects would do some things without the usual scruples. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't be able to obtain any benefits, and the entire cultivation world would be in chaos before the heavens completely collapsed.
"What kind of restriction did the Long Qiong Sect place on your bodies? Where are those people from the Long Qiong Sect? "Weisuo inwardly shook his head and asked.
"They're in a 'Corrosive Luck Vein' about a thousand kilometers from here." The white-haired old man with the surname Lu replied, "We don't know what kind of restriction they placed on our bodies, but we felt a ball of vital Qi fluctuating in our chests. They warned us not to use our true essence to touch that vital Qi, or else they would immediately sense it. Furthermore, if any of us were to touch that Yuan Qi and eliminate it, causing them to rush over, they would directly kill the person who eliminated the Yuan Qi. "
"According to my estimations, it's a type of restriction that attracts vital Qi. This type of restriction is only effective within a radius of a thousand kilometers, so they're not too far away from here. If a cultivator is struck by this restriction, it won't be difficult for them to break through it, but after breaking through the restriction, they'll still be able to sense their location within the next few hours. "The white-haired old man with the surname Chen seemed to have some understanding of various types of restrictions, and he explained to Weisuo.
"All of you, try to break through the restrictive spell. There's also your other companions. Find them and have them break through the restrictive spell as well." Weisuo turned to the white-haired old man with the surname Lu and asked, "What is this' Corrosive Luck Vein '?"
The white-haired old man with the surname Lu knew that Weisuo was going to help them deal with the Long Qiong Sect cultivators, and he was extremely excited. After taking several deep breaths, he explained, "This is a type of landform described in ancient records. The two mountain ranges are in the shape of an '8', and there are many small hills on the mountain ranges. There are very few trees on the mountain ranges, and it is said that this type of landform can bring bad luck to cultivators who stay here. Ordinary cultivators might not believe this, but those who studied pulse viewing records and had some knowledge of pulse probing techniques would rather believe it to be true than not. Generally, when they saw such landforms, they would stay far away and not dare to enter. Because these Long Qiong Sect cultivators forced us to stay here, we didn't warn them even though we saw the landform. "
"Now it seems that many of the records in these pulse viewing ancient books are very likely to be true." As he spoke, the old man could not help but say such a sentence with some reverence. It was clear that with Weisuo's abilities and cultivation, the Long Qiong Sect cultivators would definitely be in for a great deal of trouble.
Heaven and Earth were mysterious, and even the legendary True Immortals couldn't understand all of its mysteries, let alone ordinary cultivators like them. Since ancient times, the legends said that the earth veins were related to luck, and no one knew the secrets behind it. For the prospectors, there were many who died in various landforms every year, so they were even more respectful of the Heaven and Earth veins.
"A great cultivator is standing up for us …"
"They are really unlucky to stay in that 'Corrosive Luck Vein'."
"My restriction has been broken."
"…"
As the white-haired old man with the surname Lu and the others thanked him profusely, the other cultivators were also called out from the depths of the mountain range. The restrictions that the Long Qiong Sect cultivators left in their bodies weren't difficult to break. Soon, the restrictions in these cultivators' bodies were broken one by one.
"They are here …"
In less than half an incense stick's worth of time, the sound of something breaking through the air came from the distant horizon. A black stream of light shot towards the mountain range where Weisuo and the others were.
