Star Domain Secret Realm
Lu Qing'an led Li Wensong and the others to several locations marked by red dots, almost all of which led them to a continent.
These continents are not of a very high level, after all, they are only in the mid-level star field, the highest being the Eight Heavens Continent.
The Eight Heavens Continent also possesses two Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mines, one nurtured by the Heavenly Dao of that continent, and the other nurtured by the continent's top merchant guilds.
"Could they all be owned Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone veins? I've checked ten red dots already, and it's the same for all of them," Lu Qing'an muttered to himself.
If that's the case, then he'd made a wasted trip.
He's even considering that, if all else fails, he might as well just steal one or two.
But after glancing at Xue Tianfei and Li Wensong, he decided against it.
Li Wensong and the others wondered what they would think of him.
The main problem was that he really couldn't figure out Li Wensong's mind. He wondered if his act of robbing the weak of valuable items would cause him to lose prestige, and that his Eternal Realm subordinates would stop working for him.
He was well aware of the advantages of having several Eternal Realm subordinates. One person can only work with two legs and two hands. No matter how strong or efficient one is, one's strength will only remain at a certain level.
The saying "Many hands make light work" is not just an empty phrase.
"Wait, if all else fails, we could make a deal." Lu Qing'an then thought of another way to obtain the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone vein.
Use your cultivation level to replace it!
He had just encountered the Seven Heavens Continent, and it seemed that the continent was only one bottleneck away from breaking through to the Eighth Heaven level.
Without anyone's help, it would take a very long time to break through.
If he offered to transfer his cultivation to the other party to help them break through to the Eighth Heaven level, but the price was a Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine, would the other party agree?
That's a hard question to answer!
If the other party is absolutely certain of breaking through, they might not agree, but if they are not absolutely certain, or have long aspired to the Eighth Heaven level for a long time, they will agree directly.
"If I encounter such a continent again, I can ask around. Anyway, for me, cultivation has value, but it's also like a kind of currency. No matter how much you save up, if you don't use it, it's just a pile of useless currency."
He had already calculated that the cultivation level within his sea of consciousness was enough to elevate more than a dozen of him to the Peak Eternal Realm.
Even if it's not enough, he can marry Xue Tianfei again and gain more cultivation points, then he'll have an inexhaustible supply of cultivation points.
The only thing he had to worry about was whether the system would affect his relationship with Xue Tianfei.
There's a 50% chance it might happen, and a 50% chance it might not; he just doesn't like this feeling of uncertainty.
A moment later, Lu Qing'an and the others arrived in a mid-level star field, and this time, the place they appeared in no longer had a continent.
They appeared in a void beyond the realm of existence, and within millions of miles of that void, they found no continent.
"Senior, this is the location you gave me." Lianxin saw that there was no mainland in this area and thought she had made a mistake, but after careful comparison, she pointed to a place about a mile ahead.
Lu Qing'an said, "That's good. It seems there is a Star Region Secret Realm here."
He glanced at Chen Lingling and the others, and said, "Search around and see where this hidden Star Region Secret Realm is."
This Star Region Secret Realm must be within a thousand miles of here. If several Eternal Realm search together, they will definitely be able to find it.
Upon hearing this, Li Wensong and the others nodded repeatedly and then began their search.
Xue Tianfei also joined the team searching for the Star Region Secret Realm, and the group set off to search.
Lu Qing'an carefully compared the map in his sea of consciousness and was absolutely certain that the location of the Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mine was right here.
"It seems that even after arriving at the location of such Star Region Secret Realm, finding the Star Region Secret Realm will still be a challenge."
The principle behind the creation of the Star Region Secret Realm is that it was formed by the distortion of space when the Star Domain was born. It contains a huge space with the Power of the Dao Source. Over time, if there are any good things inside, they will be nurtured and grow. If there are any Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone, they may become Heavenly Mandate Soul Stone mines.
The premise is that no one has ever discovered this kind of the Star Region Secret Realm since its birth, but many Star Region Secret Realm will be discovered by people, and some Star Region Secret Realm will even be found and occupied by powerful people.
Some factions even establish themselves within the Star Region Secret Realm, utilizing powerful Array Dao formations to make these Star Region Secret Realm even more concealed, and requiring a key to open them.
"Brother Lu! Something seems off here!"
Just then, Li Wensong shouted.
In an instant, Lu Qing'an, Chen Lingling, and the others flashed and quickly appeared where Li Wensong was.
Li Wensong smiled and pointed to the extraterrestrial void in front of him, saying, "Look, isn't the void here a little different from the surrounding void?"
The empty space that Li Wensong pointed to seemed no different from its surroundings at first glance, but upon closer inspection, one could discern faint ripples in the space, like ripples on the surface of water touched by a gentle breeze.
When everyone probed with their Divine Sense, they felt a slight obstruction, as if they had touched an invisible membrane.
"It is indeed a bit different! If nothing unexpected happens, the Star Region Secret Realm should be hidden inside!" Chen Lingling said with utmost seriousness.
Lu Qing'an looked at Chen Lingling: "It's up to you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lingling's heart stirred, and she quickly nodded.
Her gaze sharpened, and a surge of azure Eternal Realm Power of the Dao Source suddenly condensed at her fingertips, transforming into a sharp blade that pierced straight into the void.
With a muffled boom, the space there suddenly twisted, cracking open a three-zhang-wide fissure, revealing the entrance to the chaotic and turbulent Star Region Secret Realm inside!
However, the edges of the crevice were now wrapped with dense golden array patterns, which sealed the entrance tightly like chains, and even rebounded with a sharp shock force, forcing Chen Lingling to take half a step back.
"This is... the Nine Mysteries Sealing Array!" Chen Lingling exclaimed softly.
When Qian Xiuzhu and Lianxin heard the name of the formation, their eyes widened slightly.
This is an extremely powerful defensive formation!
It's a formation that can even withstand the Middle to Late Stage Eternal Realm!
Lu Qing'an was born on a small, weak continent and had never heard of such a formation before. However, judging from Chen Lingling and the others' expressions, he could roughly determine that it was the Nine Mysteries Array. He figured that even if Chen Lingling took action, it would be difficult to break the formation.
I wonder if sending Huang Hao and Luo Danhong will be able to break this formation.
"Their strength is relatively low, so they probably won't make it. Let's see what Chen Lingling and the others do." Thinking of this, Lu Qing'an looked at Chen Lingling again.
Can you open this formation?
Upon hearing this, Chen Lingling gave a wry smile.
"Senior, my skill in formations is truly mediocre, and I am unable to break this formation. The defensive power of this formation can even withstand attacks from the Late Eternal Realm experts. Even if I attack with all my might and try to break it by force, it's still not enough."
She looked at Lu Qing'an as she said this.
If a powerful figure like Lu Qing'an were to intervene, he could definitely break this formation easily.
This formation definitely can't withstand a single blow from the Peak Eternal Realm expert.
