Chapter Thirty-Eight: Getting Rich Overnight Picking Spirit Stones in Dragon and Tiger Mountain
Longhu Mountain in Ganzhou in the southwest, because the shape is like a dragon plate, the shape resembles a tiger, just like a dragon fighting for a tiger, so it is called Longhu Mountain. It has a history of more than 200 million years and is the oldest Danxia landform terrain in China, with dense sinkholes, numerous karst caves, vertical and horizontal undercurrents, forest cover, and countless unsolved secrets hidden.
Thousands of years ago, there were Taoist masters, who discovered the hidden mysteries of heaven and earth here, opened a sect here, explored the mysteries of heaven and earth, and devoted themselves to cultivation, which has been passed down for thousands of years and has become a Taoist holy land.
"Huh!" Li Qiang entered Longhu Mountain and swept his thoughts, but found that his thoughts could only cover a range of about two thousand meters, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and his thoughts looked carefully, but found that although the aura of the five elements was thick here, much thicker than the outside, but these five elements aura was different from the outside, and there seemed to be a trace of connection between them, and it was this connection that affected the extension of the divine thoughts.
This made him a little puzzled, originally his divine mind could search a range of tens of thousands of meters, but now this has increased the difficulty of his exploration, in the depths of this dense mountains and dense forests, it is even possible to lose his way, but fortunately, he is a master of art and bold, and he is safe when he comes, and after a little thought, he still advances to the depths of the mountains.
Along the way, I explored many sinkholes and karst caves, and found that many of them have been searched, and there are traces of excavation in some places, and I don't know what is inside, and even in some karst caves hidden deep underground, I also found artificially excavated stone houses.
Although there is nothing to gain along the way, it also brings hope to Li Qiang, if there are no sinkholes and karst caves that have been searched, will there be unexpected surprises?
With the exploration of the left and right, the front and back, Li Qiang had already deviated from the direction of the beginning. At this time, I suddenly found a gray rabbit in my mind, and I couldn't help but be happy, there are rabbits that mean there are caves, and there are many caves here, all of which are naturally formed, and there is no need for rabbits to burrow by themselves.
Immediately searched in the direction of the rabbit, and stepped on the dead branches on the ground in front of him, "crunch", the rabbit was startled, ran into the grass next to him and fled towards the top of the mountain, Li Qiang followed up to the top of the mountain, only to see the rabbit disappear towards the edge of the cliff.
Come to the front and look down, there is a cliff below, bottomless, fortunately, Shen Nian has already locked on the rabbit, and found that it is hiding more than ten meters below the cliff, and carefully observe that there are some low shrubs growing here, crawling with vines.
I went down to the branches and vines that were separated from the layers in front of me, and found that there was a stone crevice more than one meter wide and more than three meters high on the cliff that meandered downward, and the shrubs growing out of the hole just blocked the entrance of the cave, and the shrubs and vines on the rock wall next to it were integrated.
Walked along the stone crevice for more than 200 meters, came to the end of the stone crevice, the rock in front of me was completely different from the surroundings, and if you looked closely, it was actually stalactites, and when you hit it gently, there was a low echo.
Li Qiang knew that the end of this stone crack should be a large karst cave, because the stalactites on the edge of the top of the cave have been precipitated for hundreds of millions of years, sealing the hole of this stone crack, or this stone crack may be formed later, due to the high density of stalactites, this stone crack can only crack here.
The palm of his hand against the stone wall shook suddenly, the stone wall flew in response to his hand, and suddenly opened up in front of him, a rich aura came to his face, and a huge underground karst cave appeared in front of him, and the position he was standing on was just a hole in the middle of the stone wall of the cave.
Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking up, I saw that the diameter of this karst cave was fifty or sixty meters, and the entrance of the cave was dozens of meters away from the top of the cave.
Li Qiang was curious, and climbed to the front to take a look, but it was a fist-sized white stone, embedded in the stone wall, warm as jade, and the aura was full of energy, and he couldn't help but be happy in his heart. Suddenly, no wonder there are traces of artificial excavation in some caves found, it turns out that there is such a treasure!
It should be that these prominent stones have absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy in the cave and evolved into spiritual stones containing spiritual energy, just like the spiritual fruits they obtained, but the spiritual energy here is more intense, making the stones evolve into spiritual stones.
In fact, this is also normal, those jade, jade, and agate are all derived from the spiritual temperature in the depths of the earth, and they can also be called spiritual stones.
Since ancient times, Chinese people have had a preference for wearing jade, and the reason for this is that jade contains aura, which can strengthen the body, calm the mind and calm the mind.
However, the jade on the market now has long lost its aura, and of course it has lost its effect, just a piece of jewelry.
Li Qiang resisted the ecstasy in his heart, carefully collected the spirit stones on the cave wall, and unconsciously went down to the bottom of the cave and came to a platform, which occupied most of the area at the bottom of the cave.
I counted the spirit stones, there were thirty or forty large and small, as big as a fist and as small as an egg, but fortunately, this time Li Qiang came out, and with the experience of collecting herbs and spirit fruits last time, he specially prepared a travel bag of adjustable size, sealed with a thick rainproof cloth, otherwise it would really not be able to hold so many spirit stones.
Reloaded the spirit stone, came to the platform, looking at the turbulent underground dark river, Li Qiang decided to investigate upstream along the dark river, although the dark river is very dangerous, but Li Qiang is a master of art and bold, not to mention the temptation of the spirit stone.
According to his analysis, the aura here should be overflowing through the dark river, and the source of the aura should be in the upper reaches of the dark river.
Just about to enter the dark river, my heart moved, the reason why this place has not been discovered, and the formation of so many spirit stones, is because the space here is sealed, the aura overflows, and now the hole is opened by oneself The aura overflows, and it is estimated that it will soon be discovered, so even if he finds the source of the spirit stone, it is impossible to take it all away for a while, isn't it a wedding dress for others.
So he climbed up again, found a stalactite, and re-blocked the entrance to the cave, even if there was a slight overflow, floating outside the crack in the stone and being blown by the wind, it disappeared without a trace.
The dark river meanders, and the river is also high and low, so that Li Qiang specially prepared for crossing the water, a pair of high-buoyancy sneakers, is useless, in most cases can only sneak underwater, and after some small karst caves in the middle, more than a dozen spiritual stones have been harvested, but the source of the aura has not been found, but many strange creatures have been found.
Of course, these creatures grow like this, but also to adapt to the environment here, although the aura here is rich, but these aura for these small creatures, there is no effect, because the aura belongs to a higher level of true qi, these weak creatures can not absorb it, and the life of these creatures is very short, and the aura itself is very limited in its erosion of them. In fact, Li Qiang also cultivated to the realm of the fourth layer of the wandering soul in order to absorb the aura from the air.
After diving a few hundred meters from the water, the entrance of the cave suddenly rose in front of him, and he came to a huge karst cave, and when he looked up, he saw that the entire karst cave was full of misty white light, and on the platform high in the dark river, one by one the spirit stones the size of a fist were scattered in the chaotic stone bushes, emitting fluorescent white light.
This is a spirit stone mine, the undercurrent has eroded the rocks at the bottom, causing the rocks above to collapse, exposing the spirit stone mine, and a large number of collapsed spirit stones have been washed into the river, seeing such a large collapse area, Li Qiang's heart is dripping blood, how many spirit stones are washed into the river and wasted!
After careful observation, fortunately, the diameter of this karst cave is only more than 20 meters, and the height is only about 50 or 60 meters, and it is more than 20 meters away from the platform to be the spirit stone mine.
Due to the elevation and narrowing of the river, the water level here is higher than the openings on both sides, making this a relatively sealed environment, so the aura of these spirit stones has not lost much.
Looking at the spirit stones everywhere, Li Qiang couldn't help but fall into a dilemma, so many spirit stones will definitely not be taken away this time, how can they be brought out in the future? According to the current situation, only Wang Zihao can enter here with him, and the strength of others is not enough, of course Ge Qianru can, but he can't let a girl dive for more than ten kilometers!
Of course, if the state is allowed to mine, it will be very simple, and it will be possible to dig a channel directly from above, but the distribution of spirit stones in the future will become a problem.
Li Qiang shook his head, didn't think about it for the time being, first picked up the spirit stone on the ground and filled it with a full bag, and then stopped continuing to investigate, returned to the cave along the same way, climbed up the stone crack and cave, resealed and reinforced, returned to the top of the mountain to identify the direction, carried the travel bag, went straight to Longtan through the mountains and dense forests, and returned to Qingjiang by plane.
returned to the martial arts school and recruited Wang Zihao and Ge Qianru.
"Master, why did you come back so soon?" Ge Qianru couldn't help but ask when she saw Li Qiang's joy.
"Hahaha, the master is really rich this time. Li Qiang couldn't help laughing, with these spirit stones, in the short term, he could not only make his strength go further, but also cultivate a large number of elite disciples, unlike now only Wang Zihao is available at his disposal.
"Zihao, open it and pour it out. Li Qiang pointed to the travel bag and said in high spirits.
"What is this?" Wang Zihao looked at the spirit stone on the ground with a shocked face.
Li Qiang's travel bag is used by the kind of travelers who go on wild adventures, and it is more than one person tall when it is all released, and at this time it is full of spirit stones, which were poured out by Wang Zihao and piled up all over the ground.
"Master, what kind of treasure is this?" Looking at the spirit stones in a place and feeling the surging spiritual power in them, Ge Qianru took a deep breath and asked with an intoxicated face.
