"Teacher Li, what we're saying is, after this Earth Vein arrangement was completed, there wasn't a single unusual sound? You mean, that kind of..."
Qi Mingyang was a little unsure how to put it.
"Actually, there have been significant changes, but you just can't see them."
Li Xingkong looked at the Earth Vein that had merged with the mountain. It was already absorbing the surrounding matter and began to release Spiritual Qi. Countless Spiritual Qi spread in all directions like dandelion seeds.
"Is that so?"
Qi Mingyang scratched his head, then looked around with wide eyes, but nothing had changed.
" Spiritual Qi is only effective when combined with cultivation methods, and I expect the subsequent cultivation methods will be implemented soon."
Li Xingkong stood there for a while longer, confirming that this ley Earth Vein had indeed begun to function and was operating stably, before stopping his observation and preparing to move on to the next location.
Just as Li Xingkong was about to leave, a messenger from Qi Mingyang's side rushed over.
"Report! Just now, a monk reported to us that they discovered something unusual while meditating over there."
There was nothing unusual in the morning or evening, but the situation arose right after Li Xingkong finished setting up the Earth Vein. This made it hard for Qi Mingyang not to connect the two events.
Instead of dealing with the matter immediately, he looked at Li Xingkong.
"No problem. The so-called anomaly is probably because someone sensed Spiritual Qi. This person must have been a highly skilled cultivator in the past."
Li Xingkong naturally knew what he was thinking.
"The first step to sensing Spiritual Qi is to enter a meditative state. This state has many names, such as meditation, sitting meditation, and entering a meditative state, all of which describe this state. Only by entering this state can you sense the Spiritual Qi around you."
Hearing Li Xingkong's words, Qi Mingyang seemed to understand but not quite.
Although he didn't understand what state this was in, he knew one thing: someone on this Mount Tai had already sensed Spiritual Qi.
This is enough to prove that the arrangement of the Earth Vein is indeed effective; he just can't sense it because his method is wrong.
Of course, he doesn't have time to figure out how to personally sense Spiritual Qi right now. He needs to handle this matter properly before more people here can sense Spiritual Qi.
"Teacher Li, this is urgent. I need to go to the scene to check the situation first. Could you please..."
In this situation, besides him, no one else at the scene had any good solutions, so he was the only one who could go and check the situation.
"I understand. You guys go ahead with your work. I need to go to my next destination too."
Despite saying that, Li Xingkong still felt something was off, as if these people were just there to clean up his messes.
The idea was rather disgusting, and Li Xingkong dismissed it after a moment's thought.
Never mind, let's move on to the next place.
Although Li Xingkong moved quickly and flew around alone without any delays, it was still afternoon when Li Xingkong at the second location.
The second place is naturally the capital of Divine Land. As the center of Divine Land, the capital is one of the largest cities in the country in terms of both urban size and population. The expansion of the city over the years has resulted in the entire urban cluster reaching a very large scale.
The location where Li Xingkong set up the Earth Vein was on a mountain inside the city. This meant that he couldn't just fly directly to the destination; he had to go to the edge of the Imperial Capital city and then take transportation there.
The Imperial Capital is located on a plain, which is suitable for living, but there are not many mountains and rivers to choose from. With the further expansion of the Imperial Capital, many of the available mountains have been included in the urban area, which means that the Earth Vein in this place can only be located in the bustling city.
Although the city center is crowded and conspicuous, making it difficult to implement isolation measures, Imperial Capital a fast-paced city where few people usually go out for leisure, especially on weekdays when everyone is too busy to notice what's happening here.
As a ride-hailing car pulled up at the foot of the mountain, Li Xingkong jumped out of the back seat, gave the driver a good review, and then turned to look at the small mountain in front of him.
While it may be called a mountain, it's not actually that tall. Standing at its foot, it looks like a park, with man-made green belts stretching all the way up the mountain. Only when you're almost halfway up does a grove of trees completely enclose the upper half of the mountain.
Li Xingkong ran quickly up the stone steps leading up the mountain.
Down the mountain, there were many vehicles coming and going, making it quite noisy. But once we got up the mountain and crossed that grove of trees, the surrounding environment suddenly became quiet. Perhaps this is the feeling that some people seek—the feeling of being a hermit in the city.
After Li Xingkong the top of the mountain, he immediately saw the staff who had been prepared in advance.
Unlike before, there were no troops here to fence off the land; instead, there was a group of old men.
When Li Xingkong first arrived, he thought it was some kind of senior citizens' exercise center, with many elderly people exercising there. It wasn't until two elderly people approached Li Xingkong and greeted Li Xingkong that he realized that this large group of old men exercising were actually staff members who had made all the necessary preparations.
After all, they didn't actually have much work to do. Their only task was to assist Li Xingkong in setting up the Earth Vein. Anyone could do that; it was just a formality.
Upon seeing Li Xingkong arrive, their training ceased. With a wave of his hand, the old man leading the group dispersed, forming a large net that vaguely appeared around the entire hilltop.
No matter who you are, if you want to come up the mountain, these old men will see you.
Without wasting any words, Li Xingkong immediately began setting up the Earth Vein.
Setting up Earth Vein is a very simple task. If it weren't for the fact that it requires Spiritual Qi and Magic Power to activate, this task could be completely delegated to others.
But there are still too few people cultivating right now. Most of them are still on the moon, and there really aren't any people on Earth Star who can help Li Xingkong with this.
Soon, with Li Xingkong spread out the Earth Vein throughout the Imperial Capital.
This time, no one sensed the Spiritual Qi so quickly, since people in the Imperial Capital rarely have the peace of mind to cultivate.
Those who truly love spiritual practice have long since found a famous mountain or river to cultivate in seclusion. Those with money, time, and resources can go to more suitable places for spiritual practice.
Only penniless and resourceless laborers are stuck here, working the same job day after day.
I don't even have enough energy for my work, so where would I find the mind to do anything like spiritual practice or meditation?
