An Unclaimed Mine
Lu Qing'an's voice, amplified by his cultivation, instantly resonated throughout the Five Lakes Continent. Lianxin, as the Heavenly Dao of the Five Lakes Continent, immediately heard Lu Qing'an's summons.
At this moment, Lianxin was still with Li Wensong and several other Eternal Realm, discussing how to be a good pawn, how to prepare for the Fallen God Sea, and what things had not yet been done. When she heard Lu Qing'an's summons, she instantly shuddered.
"Senior has come to see me!" Lianxin quickly glanced at Chen Lingling and the others and said.
Without Lianxin saying a word, Chen Lingling and the others had already sensed that Lu Qing'an had arrived.
Li Wensong exclaimed excitedly, "It seems Brother Lu has suddenly changed his plans and needs us to do something! Let's go!"
The group vanished in a flash, appearing in the outer void in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing Lu Qing'an and Xue Tianfei, they all approached with respectful and obsequious smiles.
"Brother Lu, what's wrong? Is there anything we can do for you?" Li Wensong asked first.
Chen Lingling and the others didn't say anything, after all, they weren't the key pawns, they just needed to follow Li Wensong and do his bidding!
This was a rule they had recently established. They simply knew too little about Lu Qing'an's plans, and were prone to making mistakes if they did too much. It was better to just follow Li Wensong. Whatever Li Wensong told them to do, they would do; whatever Li Wensong did, they would do as he said.
That way, you're guaranteed to be right!
Seeing that Chen Lingling and the others were all there, Lu Qing'an thought that he might have conflicts with people when he found the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Mine, and might even get into a fight with some people. So he decisively came up with the idea of taking Chen Lingling and the others with him.
I just happened to have recruited Chen Lingling, a Mid Eternal Realm fighter, so I can bring her along!
Let's see how strong Chen Lingling really is if they really fight.
"Since I have nothing to do before the Fallen God Sea opens, I plan to find some Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins. You'll come with me. If we encounter any fools, you know what to do, right?"
Lu Qing'an decisively assigned Li Wensong and his group the role of thugs, without needing to give them any hints later.
Upon hearing this, Li Wensong's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands together eagerly. "Great!"
Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine?
This is really good stuff!
Lianxin and the others were a little curious: was Lu Qing'an trying to seize someone else's mine, or had he found an unclaimed Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine?
However, unclaimed Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins are hard to find. These veins have long since developed sentience. Some powerful Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins are even secretly hidden within a continent, and that continent may not even know about them!
It has been secretly and continuously absorbing the Power of the Dao Source of the continent!
Some Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins are not located on the mainland, but in special Star Region Secret Realm. These places are even more difficult to find because they are hidden in the void beyond the realm. Eternal Realm is not very close to such a place, it is still difficult to find it even with special methods.
Lu Qing'an nodded and said, "Let's go then! Lianxin, teleport us to this place."
With a wave of his hand, a portion of the Power of the Dao Source surged forth, forming a map, in which a red dot appeared.
It was the first Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein in a mid-level star field relatively close to their star field.
Their next task was simple: to walk through each red dot on the map and see which Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins were unclaimed or owned. For the unclaimed ones, they would try to take them; for the owned ones, they would check the situation of the owners.
Lu Qing'an's desires weren't great; he just wanted to find a low-level Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein!
Lianxin glanced at the map and instantly knew where Lu Qing'an wanted to go, saying, "Okay!"
And just like that, a force acted on Lu Qing'an and the others, and then, in the blink of an eye, it carried them into a black hole.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Qing'an and his companions were back in the light, and they found themselves in a region outside a continent.
Along with the Five Lakes Continent, they also moved and arrived near this continent!
This continent is of a high level; it is a Seven Heavens Continent.
Lu Qing'an glanced at the continent below. If nothing unexpected happened, the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine within this continent should already have an owner.
However, he still decided to go down and take a look.
However, before he could even set off, the Heavenly Dao of this continent seemed to sense their arrival and instantly appeared in the outer void.
"This..."
Upon seeing Lu Qing'an's lineup, the Heavenly Dao of this continent was completely dumbfounded.
Five Eternal Realm experts!
Two of them were even Mid Eternal Realm experts!
One of them, from the Eight Heavens Continent, has arrived!
"Seniors... what is this...?"
The people from the Seven Heavens Continent looked at Lu Qing'an and the others timidly, their speech becoming somewhat incoherent.
Seeing that the Heavenly Dao had appeared on this continent, Lu Qing'an thought for a moment and, too lazy to go down and investigate the situation of the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine, directly asked, "Does your continent have a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine?"
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao of this continent paused for a moment, its expression instantly becoming hesitant.
Are these Eternal Realm experts after her Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine?
Then, can I still protect this Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine?
Moreover, who exactly exposed the existence of a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine on our continent?!
She hid it so well! Throughout the entire continent, apart from herself, the Heavenly Dao, no one knew that she was secretly maintaining a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine!
This is the result of her many years of hard work!
"Senior, well, there is indeed a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine on our continent, but this Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine doesn't belong to me. It was entrusted to me by a certain Eternal Realm expert to cultivate..."
After thinking for a moment, she quickly came up with an excuse.
After gazing at the Heavenly Dao of this continent for a while, Lu Qing'an, too lazy to say anything else, looked directly at Lianxin and said, "Let's go to this place."
Well, Heavenly Dao is being quite polite in its words.
It's also a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein with an owner; let's keep looking.
As for the Heavenly Dao's claim that it was nurturing a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine for a certain Eternal Realm expert, he didn't quite believe it. Even if such a thing were true, he could easily steal it if he really wanted to.
It can be seen that even if this Heavenly Dao has something to rely on, it is only something that is at the Early Eternal Realm.
Lianxin glanced at the next map location given by Lu Qing'an, nodded, and then decisively led her own group and Lu Qing'an and the others away via teleportation.
The void beyond this realm fell silent.
That Heavenly Dao watched as Lu Qing'an and the others disappeared in the blink of an eye, blinked, and then began to feel a wave of fear.
"I thought they were going to rob my Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine! But they just left?! How did they know I had Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone?! Do they have some kind of method to locate it?! That's awesome!!"
