Chapter 20: Cave in the Lake, Spirit Stone Mine
After conquering Da Jin, he became more intimate with Wei Zhong. Wei Zhong could also exchange some superficial information with him through the connection between the two.
"Come on, show me where you came from?"
Wei Zhong turned over and rode on Da Jin's back. The smooth fish scales made it a little unstable, so he simply grabbed its whiskers.
Da Jin was not angry because of Wei Zhong's action, and he plunged into the lake.
At this time, the vibration in the lake had almost calmed down, and only a series of bubbles were still coming out of the bottom of the lake.
Wei Zhong was in a good mood after picking up the surrounding spiritual stones.
The spiritual stones picked up by this party at the bottom of the lake were already worth eight or nine hundred low-grade spiritual stones, which was more than twice the ticket price.
And there might be a spiritual stone vein below.
Wei Zhong was very excited when he thought about it.
The man and the beast continued to go deeper into the bottom of the lake. The dark bottom of the lake was basically without sunlight. Wei Zhong's naked eyes could hardly see the surrounding scenery. Only with the blessing of the runes of the soul-seeking technique could he see the spiritual light of various shapes.
Suddenly, a deep trench appeared in front of Wei Zhong, like a crack on the seabed, stretching across almost the entire lake bottom.
Wei Zhong's eyes froze, but he calmed down and followed Da Jin deeper into the lake.
Looking around, Wei Zhong actually found some strange spiritual herbs growing on the rock wall in the crack, and he plucked a few of them with sufficient spiritual energy and stuffed them into the storage bag.
After diving for an unknown number of feet, Da Jin turned a corner and entered a passage. There was some light in the passage, and some rocks on the rock wall emitted a faint light.
It actually contained some spiritual energy.
Wei Zhong was ready to pluck a handful, but the glowing stone seemed to be stuck on the rock wall. Wei Zhong was afraid of triggering the earthquake at the bottom of the lake again, so he did not choose to dig hard.
As Da Jin continued to go in, there were more and more such rocks inside, and some were still scattered on the ground of the passage.
"It's easy to get it."
Wei Zhong accepted it with joy.
After walking for several miles, we saw a wide cave at the bottom of the lake. It was as bright as day inside, and the spiritual energy was abundant.
"This is where Da Jin lives."
Wei Zhong looked around and found that this cave in the mountain was even larger than the lake in the forest above.
It was a bit stuffy. Although there was a stone shining above his head, it was blocked by rocks after all, and he couldn't see the sky. No wonder Da Jin was so happy to be in the outside world.
There were water plants in the cave, especially the one in the center, which was the largest.
Da Jin made a strange cry. As its owner, Wei Zhong understood what it meant. It was probably saying that this was his home.
He used his whiskers to push away the water plants that blocked the way and invited Wei Zhong to come in.
A glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Wei Zhong's eyes. There were actually two golden spiritual plants in the water plants.
One tall and one short, the surface of the spiritual plants seemed to have grown golden scales, which were somewhat similar to the fish scales on the surface of Da Jin.
The abundance of spiritual energy made Wei Zhong stunned, but unfortunately Wei Zhong didn't have much knowledge of spiritual plants, and only recognized the appearance of a few common spiritual medicines.
It seems that he needs to make up for it after leaving the secret realm.
Could it be a second-level spiritual herb?
Wei Zhong was puzzled.
Seeing Wei Zhong staring at his spiritual herbs, the big goldfish nudged Wei Zhong.
Indicated that this was his thing and Wei Zhong was not allowed to take it.
Sighing, Wei Zhong touched the fish's head:
"Be good, I will help you collect it first, then take you out, and then return it to you."
There was a trace of hesitation on the big goldfish's face, but he still trusted Wei Zhong and let him dig out the two spiritual herbs together with the soil below, and then put them into the storage bag.
Then Wei Zhong took out a spiritual stone:
"Where have you seen this thing."
The big goldfish brought Wei Zhong to a corner of the cave, and the fish pointed to a hole below, indicating that spiritual stones would be ejected from it every once in a while.
Wei Zhong looked at the small hole that could only accommodate one person, and hesitated. He looked back at Da Jin, who was several times bigger than him, and took out the spirit beast bag to put it in.
Although Da Jin resisted a little, he still obeyed Wei Zhong and entered the spirit beast bag.
I sneaked into this place, and I don’t know if I can return again. If the secret realm is closed, the spirit beast I subdued will be left here if I don’t have time to take it back.
After putting away Da Jin, Wei Zhong went into the small cave.
······
In the mine, the disciples of Qingmu Sect were knocking and hammering with various tools and instruments specially used for mining spirit stones.
In a remote unmanned mine, Wei Zhong drilled out of a small pool on the ground and saw the spirit stones emitting spiritual light on the rock wall.
‘It’s really a spirit stone mine. ’
Suddenly, he heard the sound of knocking and shouting. Wei Zhong suppressed his own energy to the lowest level and carefully went in the direction of the sound.
He caught a glimpse of many inner disciples of Qingmu Sect wearing blue and white Taoist robes.
It’s really Qingmu Sect.
As the master of this secret realm, it is not surprising that Qingmu Zong knows the resource points in the secret realm.
What Wei Zhong did not expect was that there was such a spiritual stone vein in this secret realm, and it was a medium-sized vein with medium-grade spiritual stones.
‘Wow, Qingmu Zong has mined countless spiritual stones here in the past hundred years. No wonder it can surpass Hanzhu City and become the first Jindan force in Mangyuan Prefecture. ’
‘It really deserves to be a large sect that has been passed down for hundreds of years. ’
Just as Wei Zhong was sighing in his heart, he suddenly heard a cold snort.
Someone actually discovered him.
A sword light flew in front of Wei Zhong. Wei Zhong did not have time to think about how he was exposed, and hurriedly sacrificed the first-grade superior shield he had just bought.
The small sword pierced the small shield and almost poked a hole in it.
Wei Zhong didn't care about being surprised or distressed, because the next sword light was about to come. And he also felt that the enemy who discovered him was rushing in this direction.
He took out his magic sword and chopped the second sword light, and Wei Zhong fled backwards with the thrust.
He looked over and saw that a gap had appeared on the first-grade magic sword.
Wei Zhong felt extremely distressed. The two flying swords must be second-grade magic weapons, otherwise his magic shield and flying sword would not be half-wasted after a single encounter.
Who on earth is this person from Qingmu Sect? He actually has two second-grade magic flying swords at the same time.
And such a terrifying spiritual sense discovered himself who was trying his best to conceal his breath.
The mine cave was already in chaos at this moment.
"The enemy has sneaked in, fellow brothers, be careful..."
Wei Zhong was also in a hurry to escape, and he had long forgotten where he was.
"This is too close."
Wei Zhong could feel the chill coming from behind him. As long as he slowed down, a flying sword would catch up with him.
Lu Yibin in the back was also very surprised:
"What a fast speed, it seems that this time it's a tricky guy."
But Lu Yibin still didn't take it to heart. With his own strength, he had never let a mere Qi Refining cultivator escape.
Just looking at the direction that person escaped, it seemed that he was heading to the inheritance hall above.
Wei Zhong kept escaping and finally saw the daylight.
"Finally came out!"
