Chapter 313: Chapter 261: Void Stone _2
The rough spirit stone just mined is an unnatural shape nurtured in the earth. But after Yuan Chiye had overseen the Spirit Stone Mine in Lei Nation for half a year, the largest raw Spirit Stone he had ever seen was just the size of a skull.
The one in front of Chen Mobai was already nearly the size of his chest.
A rough estimate would put its value at around two to three hundred intermediate-grade spirit stones.
All the Spirit Stone mines in the Eastern Wilderness were under the supervision of the seven major Sects.
Loose cultivators were absolutely unable to trade for raw Spirit Stones.
Is there a possibility…
That the Daoist Feiming had a Spirit Stone mine, and he had mined it himself during his lifetime?
Thinking of this, Chen Mobai activated his Void Spirit Eye and scanned the entire cave dwelling from top to bottom.
He finally found a hidden hollow.
After opening up, he found several books within.
Without examining them, he put the White Jade Sacrificial Altar, the Array Plate and these books into his storage bag. After confirming that he had not missed anything, he stepped out of the cave.
After the collapse of the cave dwelling, Chen Mobai went back to where the Daoist Feiming’s Wumu Hall was originally located.
We dug out the huge White Jade Sacrificial Altar with great effort, but found that it was not a raw Spirit Stone. Disappointed, he was about to leave.
“Eh!”
Chen Mobai stopped in his tracks, looking at a place.
That was a human-shaped wall that had sunk in. If he remembered correctly, that was where Madam Guo was killed by the Daoist Feiming.
Chen Mobai looked around, but didn’t see any bodies.
Did they disappear in the aftermath of the Golden Pearl’s explosion?
But why couldn’t he see even a drop of blood or a bit of bone remains?
Perhaps the center of the explosion was a high temperature, which turned the corpses into fly ash.
Chen Mobai, thinking thusly, estimated that it was about time, and with his doubts, returned to the place he had left before.
Upon his arrival, he found that Shan Hongyi had not yet returned.
Yan Jinye’s face was much better. After all, being an alchemist herself, she had various pills in her storage bag.
Mei Jingjun had also split a stone sarcophagus with a magic artifact, and Bi Yiyuan’s corpse was placed inside.
“My storage bag space is almost full as well as Sister Yan’s, we can only carry it out.”
After hearing this, Chen Mobai nodded, indicating that his own storage bag was also full. However, since Shan Hongyi had the Floating Airship, as long as it was carried outside, it should be fine.
After a while, it was getting close to the agreed time, but Shan Hongyi still had not returned.
The two women were a bit anxious and Yan Jinye, who had been healing her injury all along, couldn’t sit still anymore and began pacing back and forth.
Just as Chen Mobai was pondering whether or not Shan Hongyi was in danger and whether or not he should escort the two junior sisters out first and go back to the sect for help, Shan Hongyi finally returned.
His expression was excited, and in his hand he held a silver-gray ore. “junior brothers and sisters, this place is actually a vein of Void Mysterious Stone. It’s no wonder Daoist Feiming could lay down a large formation to transfer space.”
Upon hearing Shan Hongyi’s words, Chen Mobai’s face jumped with surprise. The Void Stone, also known as the “Void Stone”, was an essential material for the refining of storage bags.
In the Immortal Gate, this ore was even one of the nine rare treasures, and even a Golden Core True Human might not be able to get one.
in the Eastern Wilderness, only the Five Elements Sect and Shake Mountain headquarters had discovered two veins of Void Stone.
The reason why the Divine Wood Sect and Golden Cliff were divided at the beginning, and the reason why they fought with the Five Elements Sect for fifty years, was to include the Void Stone vein in their own territory, but the other three veins of the Five Elements Sect would not agree.
The value of a Void Stone vein was immeasurable, and even a Golden Core ancestor would be alarmed.
“Let’s go, report to the sect right now.”
Without any hesitation, Shan Hongyi put the Void Mysterious Stone into his own storage bag after he finished speaking.
This harvest was too big, even for the four of them who were at the Foundation Establishment stage, it was too much to digest.
Chen Mobai nodded.
After leaving Lonely Spirit Ridge, they made their way back to Giant Tree Ridge without stopping.
Because the Void Mysterious Stone vein was too precious, the four of them went directly to Shenmu Hall.
Meng Hong, who was fishing at the time, got the news and promptly went to report to Elder Zhou in his closed-door cultivation.
After waiting for about half a day, Meng Hong followed a young boy with white hair and a youthful face into the hall.
“Greetings to Elder.”
Shan Hongyi immediately bowed to the young boy with white hair.
The three of them, Chen Mobai, who had never seen the Golden Core ancestor of the Divine Wood Sect, didn’t know until that moment that the boy was the Supreme Elder of the sect, and the head of the Shenmu Hall, with a faint reputation as the number one person in the Eastern Wilderness, Zhou Shengqing.
“Greetings to Elder Zhou.”
Chen Mobai, Yan Jinye, and Mei Jingjun also bowed in reverence.
“You’re all young talens of our sect, there’s no need for such formality.”
Zhou Shengqing’s skin was smooth and delicate, his skin was faintly emitting a gem-like glow. Although he was over three hundred years old, he looked younger than Chen Mobai.
The Golden Core ancestor spoke gently. After finishing, he did not waste time and directly asked them about all the details of their journey to the Lonely Soul Ridge.
At first, of course, he asked Shan Hongyi.
The piece of Void Mysterious Stone was held by Zhou Shengqing. After confirming that it was real, he asked Yan Jinye how she had discovered the cave dwelling.
“It was at a small trading fair. I exchanged a bottle of pills that are useful for breaking through the early Foundation Establishment stage for a fragment of a treasure map. After studying the maps in the Book Pavilion, I filled in the information on the map and found the location of Lonely Spirit Ridge.”
-By the way, Madam Guo, who led me into this trading fair, is the Foundation Establishment elder of the Guo family..”
