Chapter 357: Blessed Land
A cool breeze slowly blew into the cave, blowing away the heat in the miners' hearts, and also diluting the magma monsters that had just fought fiercely, and the remnants of the residual heat fell all over the ground, causing the temperature of the cave to slowly rise.
Liu Qi still maintained a critical state of battle at any time, alert to possible dangers nearby, and stood guard for the miners to dig the spirit stones on the rock wall of the cave, until they had finished collecting the rich ore points on this Dao map, and then beckoned everyone to form a team and escort them back to the surface.
Five people into the army, ten people into the Shi, the miners spontaneously put into a long snake formation of the team, under the leadership of the public Wu Chang, Shi Chang, with a brisk pace, through the winding road, smoothly out of the mine containing spirit stones.
These miners are all people of the Han Empire from Kyushu in the Central Plains, and before joining the pioneer army, they have received corresponding military basic training, otherwise they would not have been able to support for so long under the siege of magma monsters, and Liu Qi rushed to save the scene.
The pioneer army, which had been waiting for a long time, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the loose cultivators stationed on Claw Frog Island return safely, and just wanted to ask what happened in the cave, Liu Qi took the initiative to reply.
"This spirit stone cave, according to my judgment, is a rich mine, whether it has a spirit stone vein or not, it needs to be carefully explored. As for the monsters inside, they should be classified as fire earth and stone spirits, there are thirteen in total, twelve of them were killed by the poor road, and the one that escaped entered the depths of the cave, and it is estimated that they were scared and will not show their heads for the time being. In the past few days, you have to be careful to collect spirit stones. ”
Team Zheng Li Nian learned the inside story, knowing that the scattered cultivator in front of him would not fool people, nor would he prevaricate with false information, so he nodded heavily, which could be regarded as thanks.
At the same time, the miners began to deliver the spirit stones, and because of the newly opened caves, according to the regulations, they took the risk to enter, and they could get fifty percent, that is, they could keep one for themselves by taking out two spirit stones. Whether it is sold at a price, or at the cost of it, befriending the Qi Refiners on the neighboring islands, you can even use this as a stepping stone to meet the cultivators who have the blessed land and cave.
No one would care about this, otherwise no one would want to enter the newly occupied island, the newly discovered Spirit Stone Cave. Besides, as long as the spirit stone is excavated, it will circulate on the market sooner or later, either in the hands of the official or in the bag of the qi refiner.
Of course, since the cultivators of the various veins of the Dao Sect have all gone to the South China Sea, there must be cultivation methods and even Dao methods that have spread, holding spirit stones to obtain mana, trying to use this as a step to advance and open the door to cultivation, it is not that no one has succeeded.
However, the biggest destination of these spirit stones is to exchange for a large amount of money, and even one and a half official positions, especially the latter, pay a certain amount of spirit stones, you can have a corresponding official position in the fortress opened up by the pioneer army.
Under the pervasive supervision of the legal network, no one dares to selfishly lay down the spirit stone, after all, the price paid is too heavy. In particular, the situation in the South China Sea Islands was very anxious during the conquest war that lasted for several years, and it was necessary to strengthen the control of the legal network over the territory expansion area in accordance with the concept of using heavy codes in troubled times.
The situation of Claw Frog Island is as unique as the conquest of the Spirit Stone Cave, although there is some overt and covert resistance, but it naturally falls into the control of the pioneer army, and the treasure contained in it is gradually developed and becomes the cornerstone of the development of this fertile land.
The natives hiding in the depths of the jungle, through the gaps in the leaves and branches, watched with complex eyes how the tall and mighty "seamen" took the land for themselves step by step.
They had learned from the priests who served the gods that the enemies who occupied their homeland were powerful men of the gods from across the sea.
God-like people! The natives were both in awe and in trepidation, nibbling on the sour fruit in their mouths to replenish their weary bodies with their daily needs.
Unfortunately, there is less and less food that can be easily found, after all, there are too many people and compatriots scattered in the jungle. When they fled from the city-state, they did not have time to carry enough dry food with them, so it was inevitable that they would be hungry and full, mainly depending on their luck.
Of course, there are also cases where you can't stand the hard wilderness life, gather a group of friends, and launch a decisive attack on the seafarers. However, their fate is usually not very good, and most of them are discovered before they even attack, and the battle is over before they even begin.
Winding through waist-high grass like a snake, sneaking up on its target, and using lightning speed to tie the aboriginal hands and feet is the most frightening thing.
The spider silk webs that fall from the sky, once stuck to the body, can never get out without shedding the skin, which is also the original motivation for the aborigines to no longer bare their chests and bodies, and use wide banana leaves to make leaf nails.
With this armor to protect himself, at least when the viscous spider web covers, the golden cicada can escape from its shell, as long as he is alive, he will wait for the opportunity to launch an attack in the future, at least it will disrupt the plans of the seafarers to build a territory.
On the seventh day of Liu Qi's arrival on Claw Frog Island, he buried road markers in various places, gradually gathered the scattered leyline aura, and when the time was ripe, he pinched his fingers and counted it, picked up the auspicious day of the zodiac that was suitable for moving the earth, and tried to open up a blessed land at the core node of the spiritual vein.
In terms of volume, the vast Claw Frog Island covers an area of 126,000 square kilometers, which is equivalent to a Fujian Province.
It's a pity that the natives have not been completely conquered and transformed now, and the remnants of the gods of the South China Sea have not been cleared up, although the indigenous city-state has been completely destroyed, and even set a fire to completely burn it into a white land, there will definitely be a recurrence in the future, so for now, only the blessed land can be opened up first, and the affairs of the spiritual field have to be pressed back.
There are two blessed land developments, one is the natural birth, containing the mystery of the operation of heaven and earth, a trace of spiritual rhyme, if there is no spiritual rhyme, if there is no flowing water, take moderate and indefinite. The second is that the Qi Refiner develops on his own, using a part of his Dao nature as the foundation of the blessed land, so as to open up and evolve.
The earliest blessed lands are all in the underworld, in the depths of the Nine Secluded Yellow Springs. Since ancient times, countless souls have fallen into the underworld, and if they do not have a cohesive core, they will crumble into pieces, and over time they will become the original soil, the soil of the underworld.
The essence of the soul is also divided into yin and yang, there are clear spirit and yang, and there are also gloomy and turbid, in general, the feminine is heavier, after all, the essence of the underworld is biased towards death and soul. According to the gathering of likeness, the soul fragments of Qingling Yang and Yang are gathered in one place, and after a long time, a thick soil is precipitated, which can be used for the dead and spirited souls to stop, which is the original blessed land, and also the mystery of the birth of the original gods.
Since the blessed land is biased towards the masculine, after condensing into an iron plate, it will naturally repel the feminine of the netherworld, and slowly leave the underworld, when the blessed land has accumulated enough, through the invisible barrier between yin and yang, you can come to the yang earth.
Generally speaking, after the blessed land is present, it will be attached to the node of the earth's leyline aura, which is the so-called feng shui treasure land, and the upper level will go to the famous mountains and rivers, and stop in the cave where the world is isolated and yin and yang do not disturb each other.
Once combined with these caves full of the aura of the Sichuan forest, the blessed land will be essentially improved, and it will be covered with a dome, yin and yang, Qiankun, and the four elements and four dimensions of opposites, tending to be complete, and turning into a mature cave with the characteristics of a blessed land.
[In other words, the blessed land is the pocket plane that contains the Yin Soul, and after being transformed into the negative energy half plane, it comes to the main material plane and is anchored at a key point where there is room for growth. With the continuous injection of the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind (vitality), and even the most important positive energy, it is built into a complete cycle, which can be self-consistent and integrated, can continue to grow, and finally evolve into a special semi-material and half-energy plane. 】
If there are gods in the blessed land, it can be transformed into the kingdom of God, that is, the gods will merge their essence with the blessed land of the cave and turn it into a part of the divine body, and believers will enter the blessed land of the cave, which is equivalent to "being with the gods", and they can enjoy immortality in disguise.
Of course, if the gods of the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land fall asleep or fall, the souls of the believers will suffer the same fate, unless some special souls have certain qualities, or the soul is extremely strong in nature (Yin God), or have another source, so as to avoid the end of sinking.
After Qi Refiners and Cultivators settle in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, they can integrate their own essence and Dao nature into it, and regard the Cave Heaven Blessed Land as an extension of the Dao Body and Dao Body, which is equivalent to having a mana reserve warehouse, which can push the power of the Dao Law to the maximum, even the limit.
More choices are to use the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land as the foundation to open up a unique Dao vein, and even use this as a bridge to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, and then try to have a unique Dao domain. From a certain point of view, the Cave Heaven Blessed Land is also equivalent to the Dao Domain of Qi Refiners, but its essence is more profound than the Invisible Dao Domain, and it contains more things.
Liu Qi and Liu Baigui are just opening up blessed land, he knows that the indigenous high-level of Claw Frog Island will make a comeback sooner or later, after all, this is the first time that the indigenous gods of the South China Sea have lost a large area of the island, and if they are left alone, the situation will collapse out of control.
"This is the stage I chose! No matter who it is, out of justice and selfishness, as long as it is on the stage, there is no option to go back behind the scenes. ”
