Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Evil Sect
The spirit stone vein can generally only be found in the land of the Lingshan River, such as a large spiritual vein that spreads for thousands of miles under the Yunkong Mountain Range.
It is precisely because of the existence of these spiritual veins that it can attract countless demon subduers to gather in the Cloud Sky Mountain Range and become one of the thirty-six veins of the Shenwu Dynasty.
Only the mountains nurtured by this kind of spiritual vein are truly full of spiritual energy, suitable for long-term cultivation of supernatural powers.
In addition, the spirit stones produced in the spirit stone veins are the hard currency between the supernatural powers, just as medicinal materials are as important as true martial artists and gold and silver are as important as mortals.
Under a remote mountain like Qinglan Mountain, the spirit veins would be very thin, and they would not be enough to mine spirit stones. According to Lu Ming's understanding, it is difficult to exploit sustainably, it is a non-renewable resource, and once it is mined, it is tantamount to fishing with all its resources.
I am afraid that it is precisely because of this that Qinglan Mountain will find another way to find foreign spirit stones through the county government to strengthen his body. It can also be seen from this how precious the spirit stone veins are.
"How can you find such a place, there are also spirit stone veins waiting for you to dig in the barren mountains and mountains?"
It stands to reason that wherever there is a spiritual vein, it will be overflowing with aura, and even if it is a hundred miles away, it can be sensed by supernatural beings. For example, Lu Ming, although he is not on the mountain, can sense the aura overflowing from Qinglan Mountain and use it for his own use.
Wang Erniu hesitated: "Maybe it's because it's buried too deep, we also inadvertently found it three hundred zhang underground when we were chasing and subduing the ant demon." ”
"Apart from you, is there anyone who knows about this place, you two are just casual cultivators?" Lu Ming had already believed in the eight points, but when it came to such important matters, he had to ask more clearly.
Wang Erniu said honestly under Lu Ming's forced gaze: "No, except for the ant demon infested, there are few people there." ”
Speaking of this, Wang Erniu hesitated slightly, but soon said in a surprising voice: "Actually, the two of us are not completely loose cultivators, but escaped from the Beast Gathering Sect. ”
Lu Ming's eyes lit up slightly, but he didn't ask any more, but motioned for the other party to continue. Because he is really a little lonely and unheard, he has not heard of any Beast Gathering Sect.
"In your eyes, the Beast Gathering Sect is the Evil Sect outside the Fang, and most of the people in it are equipped with the Beast Gathering Divine Power. Wang Erniu is still familiar with each other, so he continued.
"The Beast Gathering Sect and the Barbarian Demon Leader have long been in cahoots, on the one hand, they will accept the Demon Beasts of the Barbarian Demon Territory for their own use, and on the other hand, in return, the Beast Gathering Sect will also help the Barbarian Demon Leader train the Demon Beast Army to confront the Zhennan Army. When Wang Erniu said this, he actually showed a look of righteous indignation.
"Although Ant King and I are not good people, we don't want to be with them and harm our kind, so we waited for an opportunity to escape. Wang Erniu straightened his chest and spoke righteously.
Lu Ming thought of the martial arts on the black ants, as well as his well-trained black ants, and couldn't help but feel a chill.
The advantage of demon beasts lies in their natural brute strength and various natural bloodlines, but they also have a natural disadvantage, that is, their intelligence is weak, and they do not have the creativity of human beings and the military formation and human hearts of the united people.
But now, there is actually a human evil sect like the Beast Gathering Sect, which helps the demon beasts of the Barbarian Demon Territory to open their spiritual intelligence, train martial arts and even battle formations. In this way, the weakness of the monster beast will be minimized, so that the human race will have no advantage at all.
If this goes on for a long time, will the Shenwu Dynasty still be able to keep the spiritual land of the world and sit in the fertile Central Plains?
Lu Ming only flashed such a thought, then he sneered and didn't think about it anymore, this kind of world affairs is not his turn to take care of now.
The thirty-six veins of demon subduers under the command of the God Emperor, the Demon Suppression Division of the Martial Emperor all over the world, and the Quartet Army commanded by the Array Emperor are not vegetarians.
Gathering Beast Sect, he hadn't heard of it, but presumably the Zhennan Army had already had a way to deal with it, otherwise it would not have held the southern frontier for hundreds of years, and it would have been a rare defeat.
"Big ...... My lord, you can't be a member of the Beast Gathering Sect, right?" At this time, seeing Lu Ming silent, Wang Erniu suddenly remembered the Beast Gathering Divine Power in front of him, and hurriedly asked in surprise.
Lu Ming came back to his senses, glanced at Wang Erniu coldly, and said in a deep voice: "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to do what I say, and you can save your life." ”
"Yes, yes, the life of the villain will be taught to you. Wang Erniu nodded hurriedly, not daring to hesitate.
Lu Ming ignored Wang Erniu's loyalty, and instead asked, "What's going on with your deal with the county government, explain it carefully and clearly." ”
Wang Erniu saw that Lu Ming's tone became looser, and he was not so nervous, he moved his body a little, and only after careful consideration did he say: "Actually, we have only been in contact with the county government for less than three years, and most of the time it is done by the ant king, and he didn't tell me many details." ”
"All I know is that he just started trading with the county government through the Qinglian Gang, using spirit stones to exchange for medicinal materials for our brothers, which were used to cultivate the black ants we subdued. ”
"Moreover, every time he is very careful, he never brings spirit stones with him, how much he needs, send it to me, and then I will send it to the designated place through the black ants, and get the medicinal materials back by the way. ”
It turned out that this was the case, Lu Ming secretly said No wonder, he didn't find a spirit stone on the ant monarch at the beginning.
"Later, after Brother Ant Jun sent a batch of medicinal materials, he didn't send me a message to ask for spirit stones, and I knew that something might have happened. ”
"And then you came by yourself?" Lu Ming glanced at Wang Erniu, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, this guy could throw himself into the net, and he really mustered up a lot of courage.
Wang Erniu nodded, "I've been waiting for a long time and haven't heard back, so I can only take the risk myself." Medicinal materials are even more important than spirit stones to us beast gathering supernatural powers. I just wanted to make another one, and it didn't come back again. ”
Hey, the emotional king Erniu, is going to do just one hammer deal, and then hide in the mountains and go into retreat.
Lu Ming was glad again, if he hadn't checked the communication jade slip and kept an eye on the county government day after day, it would have been possible to let go of this big fish.
"Except for the county lieutenant Sun Shengfu, have you seen anyone else?" Lu Ming asked again.
Sun Erniu shook his head and said firmly: "No, I just asked the black ant to go to the county government to leave a password, and the other party only came to Sun Shengfu." ”
Lu Ming sighed secretly and didn't ask any more.
"Come with me. After a moment of silence, Lu Ming turned around and left, and a green wind carried Wang Erniu, drilled out of the ground together, and rose into the air.
As for Black Ant No. 4 to No. 9, after quickly burying this cave, they fled to the ground and followed Lu Ming.
Soon returned to the town behind Qinglan Station, Lu Ming took Wang Erniu to find Ding Qiang, who was full of puzzlement, and told Ding Qiang with Wang Erniu behind his back, "He will give you a hand for the time being, if you dare to run or make any changes, you will break his legs." ”
Arranging these two people together, Lu Ming was also well thought out. They are suspicious of each other, and they can supervise each other, plus there are underground black ants on standby, so they must not be able to make any trouble.
