A Supreme Treasure, No Choice but to Agree
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing's heart began to pound.
Jin Ruoxu's words truly struck a chord with Li Yunjing.
Cultivating the Earth Vein Technique is very difficult, but once mastered, even at the very beginning, it can demonstrate extremely strong advantages.
If a Qi Refining cultivator cultivates the Earth Vein Dao, they have the ability to contend with Foundation Establishment cultivator.
This is something that cultivators on other Dao Path would never even dare to dream of.
There is no other reason than the earth's veins.
The path of traversing the earth's veins involves cultivating oneself by utilizing the earth's veins.
Earth veins are the lifeblood of the earth, and every single one of them possesses immense power.
Of course, the ley lines mentioned here refer to the main ley lines, not the various branch lines.
There is also a ley line running through the underground of Serene Valley, but it is only a branch of the main ley line.
Earth Vein Dao cultivators cultivate by utilizing the main vein.
It is the supreme power that empowers them, which is why they can bestow such strength upon cultivators.
Of course, this alone wouldn't be enough to move Li Yunjing.
What moved Li Yunjing was what Jin Ruoxu said later: that during the pioneering of the wilderness, cultivators with strong earth veins would be a powerful weapon.
That's absolutely true.
The ley lines within the Tianyuan Five Provinces are quite different from those in the Great Wilderness.
One of these is that the power of the ley lines in the Great Wilderness is stronger than that of the ley lines in the Tianyuan Five Provinces.
The reason for this is that there are many cultivators within the Tianyuan Five Provinces.
Throughout history, many cultivators have resorted to any means necessary in pursuit of power.
Some of these cultivators then set their sights on the earth's ley lines.
This resulted in the weakening of the earth's veins within the Tianyuan Five Provinces.
The Great Wilderness remained peaceful and undisturbed because there were no cultivators active there for many years.
This means that if the Luozhen Sect were to undertake any land reclamation, having a cultivator specializing in Earth Vein Dao would make Luozhen Sect plans much smoother.
Li Yunjing also thought about the more distant future.
If Luozhen Sect can truly complete the land reclamation and create the sixth state of Tianyuan.
If the Luozhen Sect possesses a cultivator specializing in Earth Vein Dao cultivation, then it will be able to completely control the Sixth State.
No matter how long it takes, it can never be taken away by anyone else.
Li Yunjing's idea was to create a great earth vein array with the earth veins as the core and the Luozhen Sect as the array eye.
This would allow the Luozhen Sect to control all the ley lines within a province.
In this way, as long as there is a major state under the control of the Luozhen Sect, almost no one can be a match for the Luozhen Sect.
The immense power of the earth's veins is not just a figure of speech.
With this thought in mind, Li Yunjing was about to agree to Jin Ruoxu's request.
But at the last moment, Li Yunjing held back.
"Senior Jin's words are truly tempting, but my Luozhen Sect is still too weak and cannot withstand any setbacks."
Li Yunjing politely declined Jin Ruoxu's offer.
Jin Ruoxu, however, was not annoyed and looked at Li Yunjing with a smile.
"Sect Leader Li, there's no need to refuse so quickly. There's one more thing I haven't said yet."
Within that cave abode lies a priceless treasure— the Northern Dark Vein-Suppressing Seal.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunjing felt a sense of unease once again.
There was nothing else to it; he was just afraid that if Jin Ruoxu spoke, he wouldn't be able to hold back.
Jin Ruoxu didn't give Li Yunjing a chance to interrupt and quickly said what he wanted to say.
"This Northern Dark Vein-Suppressing Seal Suppressing Seal is the natal treasure of the High Antiquity Earth Vein Dao Daoist Dao Lord Dragon Ancestor. It was forged using the core Dragon Marrow Mysterious Crystal of the Northern Dark Earth Vein and supplemented with the Earth Mother Qi. It took a total of five thousand years to forge. It was High Antiquity token that commanded the Northern Dark Earth Vein. Later, it was obtained by Dao Lord Xuanchen."
After Dao Lord Xuanchen died, the Northern Dark Vein-Suppressing Seal remained in his cave abode.
If they could obtain the Northern Dark Vein-Suppressing Seal, the Luozhen Sect would be able to command the Northern Dark Earth Vein.
Sect Leader Li certainly knew that the Northern Dark Earth Vein was no ordinary place; it was once one of the Ancestral Vein of Tianyuan, but for certain reasons, its Northern Dark Earth Vein had fallen.
Even so, it was once Ancestral Vein, and its power was still astonishing.
Moreover, the Northern Dark Earth Vein extend into the Great Wilderness. If we could obtain this treasure, then the Luozhen Sect... hehe, I probably don't need to say more."
Li Yunjing's mouth went dry from listening; the benefits that Luozhen Sect could gain were self-evident.
However, Li Yunjing still did not agree immediately.
"I would like to ask Senior Jin, since the cave abode contains both the [Earth Vein Return to Origin Scripture] and the Northern Dark Vein-Suppressing Seal, both of these treasures are extremely rare."
Why would the Jin Household hand over these two treasures to the Luozhen Sect if they didn't want to keep them for themselves?
Jin Ruoxu chuckled, "Sect Leader Li, don't play dumb. I think Sect Leader Li 've probably guessed part of the reason."
Li Yunjing nodded to himself; it must be related to the Immortal Alliance.
"As for the other reasons, let's just consider them as a congratulatory gift from the Jin Household to Sect Leader Li."
Sect Leader Li has become Nascent Soul True Person at such a young age; his future is limitless, and he will likely have the opportunity to ascend to immortality.
My Jin Household has always enjoyed befriending promising young people like Sect Leader Li, so Sect Leader Li understands, right?
Li Yunjing nodded, considering it a form of investment.
If Li Yunjing can truly ascend to immortality, or even if he doesn't need to ascend, even just becoming Spirit Transformation High Person would be a success for the Jin Household.
Li Yunjing fell into deep thought. He had to admit that the two treasures Jin Ruoxu mentioned were very tempting to Li Yunjing.
After careful consideration, Li Yunjing let out a long sigh of relief.
"Very well, since Senior Jin has insisted on inviting me, I have no choice but to Senior Jin."
"I'm so glad Sect Leader Li agreed." Jin Ruoxu was overjoyed.
Li Yunjing remained calm. "There's something I need to clarify with Senior Jin beforehand."
Given the weakness of my Luozhen Sect Luozhen Sect, the assistance we can offer is limited. Even if we were to explore that senior's cave abode, it would only be me and a few others going."
Jin Ruoxu nodded. "Of course, I understand."
"However, I would appreciate it if Sect Leader Li could explain this matter in detail to the Immortal Alliance. I believe the Immortal Alliance will not stand idly by."
Li Yunjing nodded. "Of course, Senior Jin, you can rest assured."
Jin Ruoxu smiled and nodded, then pulled Li Yunjing aside to begin discussing the Dao.
Of course, since Jin Ruoxu was a Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivator, he was the one who basically imparted his cultivation experience.
Jin Ruoxu, without holding anything back, imparted all his cultivation experience at the Nascent Soul Realm to Li Yunjing.
Li Yunjing listened attentively; these cultivation experiences were of great help to him.
A thorough review might allow Li Yunjing to avoid many detours on his path to Nascent Soul cultivation, and even enable him to quickly reach the Nascent Soul Perfection.
After the discussion concluded, Li Yunjing solemnly bowed to Jin Ruoxu.
"Thank you so much Senior Jin, for sharing your knowledge so generously. I am deeply grateful."
Jin Ruoxu waved his hand casually. "Sect Leader Li, you're too kind. It's just a mutual arrangement."
After another round of polite words, Jin Ruoxu prepared to leave Luozhen Sect.
Li Yunjing personally saw Jin Ruoxu off.
Before he left, he specifically called Jin Xiaofeng over.
"Xiaofeng, stay in the Luozhen Sect and don't worry about the Jin Household."
All you need to remember is that from now on, you are a disciple of the Luozhen Sect, and everything revolves around the Luozhen Sect.
Jin Xiaofeng was completely bewildered. From what he was hearing, it was as if he had been sold to the Luozhen Sect.
Before Jin Xiaofeng could even ask what was going on, Jin Ruoxu vanished from the spot.
Jin Xiaofeng had no choice but to seek help from Li Yunjing.
"Sect Leader, was I sold out by my grandfather?"
Li Yunjing smiled and said, "Ask your grandfather. I don't know either."
After saying that, Li Yunjing turned and left.
