A Mining Trip a Hundred Li Underground

"System, display the location of the dragon's burial ground."

Lu Changzhi called out.

The sound faded.

A moment later, the light extended outwards, pointing into the distance.

Lu Changzhi glanced at it from afar, raising an eyebrow slightly.

"It seems a bit far."

In a soft voice, Lu Changzhi asked:

Are there any travel plans?

"Master, please wait a moment."

The system voice sounded, then fell silent.

After about ten breaths, light appeared before Lu Changzhi's eyes, condensing into a light screen.

The plan for traveling was displayed on the light screen.

The general idea is to start from your current location, go to the Myriad Laws Academy teleportation array, teleport to another location, then go to yet another teleportation array for transfer, and repeat this "array switching" process several times until you arrive.

"Although there are many teleportation arrays, there's really no direct route at all."

Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.

The teleportation array was not solely the responsibility of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion; various parties also contributed to its construction.

Even if they were both built by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, they would not easily teleport to each other.

On this point, Lu Changzhi was able to understand, based on his experiences from his previous life.

Setting distances between teleportation arrays can bring enough cultivators to the location of the teleportation array, and also bring benefits to the local forces.

Aside from the fact that it's not very convenient to go to places that are too far away.

"If the master masters the power of space, he can tear through space and go directly there."

The system will issue a sound as needed.

"Stop."

Lu Changzhi raised his hand, interrupting the system.

Eating too many pancakes at once can easily cause choking.

"Master, there is another option available for consideration," the system then said.

"Have a look."

As the sound faded, another line of text appeared below:

"Task assigned – Disciple Gu Chen will proceed."

"This is good."

Lu Changzhi's expression shifted.

After all, Gu Chen was already considered, so sending him now is quite reasonable.

Once Gu Chen arrives, he can Descent directly there.

Saves time and effort.

Furthermore, given the distance of this mission, if Gu Chen receives a reward for completing it, he might also be able to acquire some additional rewards along the way.

"Let's do it."

Having made up his mind, Lu Changzhi decisively chose to delegate the task.

At the same time.

On the square of the Myriad Laws Academy.

Gu Chen's mind stirred as he received a task notification from the system.

At that moment, an idea struck him, and he began to investigate.

When Gu Chen saw the mission, he was stunned.

"Check-in point 100 li below the center of the Sunken Peak Basin?"

Gu Chen raised his head and looked outside, roughly estimating the distance to be about a hundred miles.

Then, Gu Chen frowned.

This depth is really...

It reminded him of those who were captured and forced to mine in the mortal realm.

However, in terms of depth, it is clearly no match for my task.

"It's a troublesome task; I just don't know what the reward will be."

With a soft voice, Gu Chen stood up.

There are no other matters to attend to at the moment regarding the Law Contemplation Gathering.

Now that the task has been assigned, let's sign in first.

This task alone will take a considerable amount of time to complete.

Not long after.

In Lu Changzhi's courtyard.

"Master, are there any other matters scheduled for the coming days?"

Lu Changzhi was somewhat surprised that Gu Chen had arrived so quickly.

In terms of diligence in reading, Xiao Ye is the most outstanding, while in terms of completing tasks, Gu Chen deserves the title.

"There are no arrangements. If you have other things to do, feel free to do them," Lu Changzhi said.

Gu Chen nodded and then left.

Is it a hundred miles underground?

After Gu Chen left, Lu Changzhi noticed the details of the mission and couldn't help but be amazed.

"He hid it so well, yet Qi Zhan still managed to find it. He really has some skill."

If placed on the ground, a distance of a hundred miles is nothing; in fact, a cultivator with sufficient strength could directly probe it with their mind.

However, underground, due to the earth's cover, it is by no means easy to explore.

But Qi Zhan was able to do it.

"So it seems that, aside from a lack of luck, Qi Zhan is quite skilled at finding things."

With a sigh, Lu Changzhi stopped thinking about it.

Wait for Gu Chen to arrive before moving over.

Myriad Laws Academy

The Law Contemplation Gathering is still ongoing.

However, all parties seemed somewhat distracted.

This is not surprising.

Traditionally, Law Contemplation Gathering more about practice and are not usually very exciting.

Now that such an astonishing event has occurred, it naturally attracts widespread attention.

Currently, many forces are focusing on one thing.

That powerful and mysterious Master Kong Mu.

As the saying goes, having more friends means having more options, and it's always a good idea to curry favor with others.

How to build rapport, that is the question.

Anyone who can lead a force knows what is most important.

Cater to their preferences.

The problem is, what's so good about the other party?

It is impossible to know.

In this regard, the Huang Zhan is genuinely pleased.

Who would have thought that, by a twist of fate, Jiuzhao would come into contact with the other party due to a misunderstanding?

Luck is a thing that sometimes makes you sigh.

The changes in the world are truly wondrous.

Right now, he's waiting.

Waiting for an opportunity to visit.

Time passed little by little.

It was already afternoon when the Xiang Clan left.

In the blink of an eye, a day has passed.

The next day, around noon.

Huang Zhan summoned Huang Jiuzhao and asked:

"What do you think, Jiuzhao, about going at this time?"

Huang Jiuzhao thought for a moment and said:

"Brother Gu went out yesterday, but according to what he told me before, his master should wake up around lunchtime."

Huang Zhan nodded and stood up, saying:

"Come, let's go pay a visit together."

In Lu Changzhi's courtyard.

"Huang Zhan has brought his son. Shall we see him?"

Lu Yuan's voice came through.

Using the name of the Saint Emperor, Lu Yuan's presence was extremely effective.

Although all parties had the idea of visiting, it did not cause too much of a commotion for Lu Changzhi.

"Good."

Lu Changzhi responded with a word, got up and walked out.

"Young Master Lu, I hope my uninvited visit has not disturbed you."

Huang Zhan smiled and walked into the courtyard.

Lu Changzhi smiled upon hearing this:

"Senior Emperor, there's no need for you to be so polite."

Huang Zhan waved his hand and laughed:

"One should always observe proper etiquette."

With that, Huang Zhan waved his arm.

Brush.

A flash of light.

A rather ornate and exquisite large bed appeared in the courtyard.

"Knowing that Young Master Lu might be busy, I specially ordered someone to bring this bed over, so as to save some time."

"I wonder if the young master is satisfied?"

Lu Changzhi looked over.

When they saw that the bed was actually a mid-grade Saint King Artifact, they couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

Which Saint King was so ambitious that he went to such lengths to create a bed of Saint King Artifact caliber?

"Your Majesty is very kind."

Lu Changzhi sighed.

Despite knowing about it, actually seeing it still gave him a feeling.

That's incredibly thoughtful of them.

If this is a test, how can I possibly withstand it?!
