After flying eastward for ten thousand miles, Luo Qing stopped.

The place it sensed was right beneath its feet.

This gave Luo Qing a vague sense of unease.

Even if he were arrogant, he wouldn't believe that the location of the Earth Spirit Pearl was exactly within ten thousand miles of him.

His Fortune hasn't gotten that good yet.

However, since he was already here, Luo Qing couldn't possibly let go of the object at his feet that resembled an "Earth Spirit Pearl".

Following his senses, Luo Qing faintly saw a ball of Mysterious Yellow Light thousands of feet below the earth.

Luo Qing was utterly disappointed.

He couldn't sense the slightest aura of Divine Treasure treasure from the Mysterious Yellow Light.

Luo Qing's Dharma Power surged, and a giant claw dug deep into the earth, attempting to retrieve the treasure.

Before long, Luo Qing dug a yellowish-brown jade out of the ground.

Before Luo Qing could even identify the jade Foundation, a beam of silver Luo Qing suddenly shot towards him from a thousand miles away.

"Huh? Someone's attacking!"

Luo Qing snorted coldly.

The Dao Resonance principles within Buzhou Mountain are so strong that they are not very favorable to someone like Luo Qing, who is skilled in exploration.

Even with the Eye of the Great Dao, Luo Qing would find it difficult to see through tens of thousands of miles in a single glance, unlike those in the outside world.

Inside Buzhou Mountain, the Dao Eye's detection ability was weakened, so it failed to detect anyone approaching in advance.

As the silver light flew in, Luo Qing had already spotted the figure of a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal cultivator a thousand miles away.

Luo Qing thought to himself that this person must have been attracted by the commotion he made while digging for treasure underground.

This person probably thinks there's some incredible treasure underground!

Within this silver light was a Flying Shuttle- shaped, Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Faced with this attack, Luo Qing didn't even use his Divine Treasure.

He simply unleashed the powerful Fire Rule from his body, and it kept the enemy at bay.

Seeing that it could not subdue Luo Qing, the Flying Shuttle turned and shattered Luo Qing's Dharma Power hand that was grabbing the precious jade.

Mysterious Yellow Jade suddenly fell out.

The person who ambushed Luo Qing from afar was somewhat disappointed to see that only a piece of jade had fallen out.

"A precious jade, but not Divine Treasure! What a pity!"

If it were a Divine Treasure, it would be worth fighting for.

A single piece of precious jade is not worth fighting over among Taiyi cultivators.

Seeing this, the man wanted to leave.

Luo Qing naturally sensed that this person intended to escape.

"Hmph! You ambushed me, and you think you can leave unscathed!"

Luo Qing was furious at being ambushed without provocation; how could he just watch the person leave?

The Five Elements Spiritual Ring merged instantly and appeared on the Flying Shuttle Divine Treasure that was about to be retrieved.

The Five Elements Suppression Power, comparable to High-grade Spirit Treasure, immediately calmed the Flying Shuttle down.

The Flying Shuttle was suppressed, and the expression of the person who had launched the sneak attack from afar immediately changed drastically.

"High-grade Spirit Treasure?"

Ignoring the suppressed Flying Shuttle Divine Treasure, the man turned and fled.

At that moment, the Water and Fire Spirit Pearls had already vanished from Luo Qing's hand in a flash, returning within three breaths.

"Ah!"

A scream echoed from a thousand miles away.

Before Luo Qing could continue his pursuit, a faint, blood-red light vanished into the sky in an instant.

Looking in the direction where the heavily injured god fled and disappeared, Luo Qing narrowed his eyes.

The fact that the god was only seriously injured but not dead was quite unexpected.

If I'm not mistaken, the person who attacked him was only at the late Taiyi stage.

However, Luo Qing only saw that he possessed a low-grade Flying Shuttle Divine Treasure and an unknown mid-grade protective Divine Treasure.

If it weren't for the protective Divine Treasure, and the combined attack of the Water and Fire Spirit Pearls, this fellow could have been killed in one blow.

Now this person has managed to escape.

"It seems that Buzhou Mountain is indeed a land of spiritual energy. A mere late-stage Taiyi cultivator possesses at least two Divine Treasure."

Luo Qing sighed inwardly.

If he is determined to kill this person, the Yin-Yang Heaven-Transforming Mirror will ensure that the person has no chance of survival.

However, Luo Qing thought to himself that he was a newcomer and had just arrived at Buzhou Mountain.

It's still necessary to keep some cards up your sleeve.

This person did not die, but was severely injured.

Moreover, one of his low-grade Divine Treasure was suppressed by Luo Qing.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Qing summoned a silver Flying Shuttle, about a foot long, which had been suppressed by the Five Elements Spiritual Ring, and it landed in his hand.

"Buzz!"

The silver Flying Shuttle, being a refined magical Divine Treasure, struggled fiercely in Luo Qing's hands.

"Hmph! Just behave yourself!"

Luo Qing snorted coldly, and boundless Fire Rule Dharma Power surged towards the silver Flying Shuttle.

Without its owner's interference, the silver Flying Shuttle was powerless to resist.

In a short while, the brand on the Flying Shuttle was completely washed away.

The silver Flying Shuttle flashed red light and was refined by Luo Qing.

"Silver Light Meteor Shuttle, Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure from the source of light."

Luo Qing instantly understood the details of this treasure.

No wonder that person ran away so quickly.

It seems this person is cultivating the Great Dao of Light.

The Great Dao of Light is indeed quite adept at speed.

"Getting a low-grade Divine Treasure for free isn't bad!"

Luo Qing smiled and put away the silver Flying Shuttle.

For him now, ordinary Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure are of little use.

Having put away the silver Flying Shuttle, Luo Qing's target for this trip, the Mysterious Yellow Jade, was now in his hands.

"A top-grade Soul-Nourishing Jade of the Earth element. Although it's not Divine Treasure, it's still sufficient as a main ingredient for refining High-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure."

Although it wasn't Earth Spirit Pearl, Luo Qing was somewhat disappointed.

However, obtaining a superior Soul-Nourishing Jade and a low-grade Divine Treasure was enough to make Luo Qing gratified.

"Continue!"

Luo Qing still needs to continue testing the effects of the three Spirit Pearl of wind, fire, and water on the perception of earthly treasures.

Unless the Earth Spirit Pearl has already been obtained by someone, or is not even within Buzhou Mountain.

Otherwise, Luo Qing believed he would find him sooner or later.

Hundreds of thousands of miles away, the Daoist Feiguang fell from the bloody light.

This was the very person who had failed to seize the treasure and was severely injured by Luo Qing.

"What bad luck! I ran into a tough opponent. Not only was I seriously injured, but I also lost my Companion Spirit Treasure. It seems I'll have to temporarily withdraw from Zhou Mountain."

Daoist Feiguang was very depressed.

He was High-level Innate Light God, and previously relied on his amazing escape technique based on the Great Dao of Light, as well as a mid-grade protective Divine Treasure.

The Daoist Feiguang even dared to steal treasures discovered by Innate Sacred Beings, and he succeeded time and again.

Almost no Primordial Unity Golden Immortal could catch up with him in the Zhou Mountain region.

Today, however, I've run into a brick wall.

Leaving aside the Daoist Feiguang who was injured and forced to leave the Zhou Mountain area by Luo Qing.

With the help of the Three Spirit Pearls to remotely sense the earth's energy, Luo Qing actually discovered several places where earth treasures were buried.

Unfortunately, they were all just insignificant natural treasures.

However, after several explorations, Luo Qing also discovered some patterns.

The distance sensed by the Three Spirit Pearls is not infinite.

The farther away it is, the more blurred the perception becomes; roughly a million miles is its sensing range.

Moreover, the stronger the Earth Qi, the stronger the connection it has with things.

This gave Luo Qing some experience.

When searching for Earth Spirit Pearl again, Luo Qing abandoned all those with weak signals.

Luo Qing would only be interested in searching if the intensity of his senses surpassed that of the Earth Soul-Nourishing Jade he obtained the first time.

After that, Luo Qing followed the search route from the outside in, searching all the way towards the central part of Buzhou Mountain.

And at the very moment Luo Qing first activated the Three Spirit Pearls of Wind, Water, and Fire, and sensed the Earth Spirit Pearl.

In an Unknown Land within Buzhou Mountain, where the earth's essence permeates, a pure, Mysterious Yellow Treasure Pearl shines brightly in a pool of water, as if responding to a sensation emanating from the unknown.

At the same time.

Hidden deep within the mountainside of Buzhou Mountain Buzhou Mountain is a magnificent and splendid hall.

The Twelve Hundred-Zhang Divine Eggs were immersed in a boundless Blood Sea.

One of the Earth-Yellow Giant Egg suddenly trembled slightly.

A vast and profound consciousness awakened from its slumber.

In the blink of an eye, a blood-red Mist enveloped the giant egg.

A moment later, a primordial goddess with a human body and a snake tail, seven hands on her back and two hands in front, holding two flying snakes, emerged from the blood mist.

"I am Houtu, the Primordial Earth Ancestral Witch Houtu earth!"
