Wu Mengyu thought it made sense, nodded at her, and disappeared in a flash.

Obviously he went back to his clan.

……

In the underground secret room.

Lu Zhiqiu was pacing back and forth, a thoughtful look on his face.

Wu Mengyu returned to the clan.

After she left, Lu Zhiqiu stayed here alone, and the excitement he had felt from discovering the fourth-grade spiritual vein slowly faded away.

After calming down, she discovered a problem:

This place is only a few hundred miles away from Jianji Mountain.

Even if the leader of this generation happened to have never been here, has no other cultivator passed by here in the thousand years since the sect was founded?

If there was any Jindan passing through Liusha Village, he would not fail to discover such a huge spiritual vein.

Could it be that this spiritual vein only appeared recently?

It's not impossible.

Lu Zhiqiu knew that some high-grade spirit veins had developed a little bit of intelligence by chance, so they shuttled underground and walked around until they were captured by a powerful monk.

The fourth-grade spiritual vein barely touched the edge of the [high-level spiritual vein].

But no matter how Lu Zhiqiu looked at it, this thing didn't seem to have any intelligence.

Even though the one hundred and two Qinguan swords in her sea of ​​consciousness had no sword spirit, Lu Zhiqiu could still feel the sword's joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and feel its ignorant instincts.

This is what we call intelligence.

Speaking of the 120 Qinguan swords.

During the month she spent in Jian Ji Sect, she read a lot of books and had come to understand:

The generation of spiritual intelligence is related to the grade of the magic weapon. The higher the grade, the stronger the spirituality.

But in order to give birth to a spirit, it must accompany people day and night.

If a sword is accidentally locked in a blessed cave, and is nurtured for a long time, it will transform into a high-grade magical weapon, but it has never communicated with anyone. It will only have spirituality but will not be able to form a sword soul.

Just like a human baby, if it is thrown into the mountains and forests to be with wild beasts, it will not be able to learn language, develop concepts, and become a person with personality.

……

Lu Zhiqiu was still thinking about the spiritual vein.

However, she didn't think for too long as she was interrupted by a loud laugh.

"Thank you for your care, little friend Lu. The sect master is at a critical juncture in his cultivation, so he sent me and Mengyu to investigate."

The man stroked his beard lightly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

It was Zhao Youxuan, the elder who taught Lu Zhiqiu martial arts and whom he had met once before.

Wu Mengyu smiled and waved beside him.

"How's it going, Junior Sister Lu? Nothing happened these past few hours, right?"

Lu Zhiqiu shook his head and said:

"Nothing happened, but I found a problem."

then.

Lu Zhiqiu told the two of them his thoughts.

Zhao Youxuan took a breath and murmured:

"Zhiqiu is right. This is indeed a doubt that cannot be ignored."

"How about we go in and take a look?"

The three entered the mine.

Zhao Youxuan's face was solemn. He formed seals with his hands, forming array patterns in the air, and then he drove the array patterns into the spirit stone mine in front of him.

After a while.

He looked at Lu Zhiqiu and shook his head:

"Detection magic, no abnormalities were found."

"I used three methods in succession, all of which are common spiritual vein exploration techniques in the world of immortal cultivation, and they all proved that this is a genuine fourth-grade spiritual vein."

Wu Mengyu scratched his head and wanted to say something.

But she sadly discovered that her mind was empty and she had nothing to say.

That's it.

Let's leave this kind of thing to smart people like Junior Sister Lu.

Wu Mengyu figured this out, took out a small quilt from the storage ring, spread it on the ground, and lay down to sleep.

Lu Zhiqiu and Zhao Youxuan, who were standing by, didn't know what to say.

Ignoring Wu Mengyu, the two continued to think about the spiritual vein.

Lu Zhiqiu's heart moved.

She linked the Book of the Ages and checked Zhao Youxuan's fate:

[Zhao Youxuan, Jianji Sect elder, 169 years old, at the peak of foundation building]

[Age 0, born into a family of immortal cultivators in Jinzhou]

[At the age of one, his father and mother, who were in the middle stage of Qi training, worked together to cleanse his meridians and marrow, laying a solid foundation for him.]

[At the age of five, he began to train his body and practice]

[At the age of ten, in the late stage of body building, he participated in the Jianji Sect's disciple recruitment examination and became a disciple of the Jianji Sect]

【At the age of twelve, I began to practice Qigong】

[At the age of eighteen, he fought with an enemy and fell off a cliff due to exhaustion. He accidentally discovered the burial place of a Jindan senior and obtained the Jindan inheritance and a large amount of natural treasures and spiritual stones.]

[At the age of fifty-one, he attained enlightenment and established his foundation]

[At the age of seventy-seven, after the auction, he was besieged by three Foundation Establishment warriors. He fought back and killed them, gaining their wealth and breaking through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in one fell swoop.]

[One hundred and three years old, broke through to the late stage of foundation building]

[One hundred and sixty-nine years old, breaking through to the peak of foundation building]

[One hundred and seventy-one years old, infected with the Soul Chaos Poison, his sea of ​​consciousness damaged, and he was pierced through the heart by a sword from the Huangyin Sect's foundation-building sect, and died.]

Elder Zhao actually broke through.

Lu Zhiqiu was a little surprised.

She remembered that the last time Elder Zhao took action at the recruitment meeting, he was still in the late foundation-building stage.

No wonder I haven’t seen him in the sect this month. It seems he is in seclusion to break through.

but.

The last time he simulated Elder Zhao’s life, Lu Zhiqiu remembered that he would break through to the Golden Core stage in the future.

But now he died prematurely.

This shows that her joining Jian Ji Zong was like the flapping of a butterfly's wings, bringing some unexpected effects and thus changing the other person's life.

But where did this soul-confusing poison come from?

Is it related to the Huangyin Sect again?

Think for a moment.

Lu Zhiqiu turned his gaze to this spiritual mine again!

Main World: Chapter 19: Clearing Toxins and Recovering Spiritual Veins

Lu Zhiqiu was silent for a moment.

He spoke decisively:

"Elder Zhao, let's keep digging until we reach the end."

Zhao Youxuan was stunned and a little confused:

"The spirit stones that continue to grow outside the spirit vein are actually a form of self-protection."

"Directly opening up the outer spirit stones and exposing the core spirit vein will shorten its lifespan."

"Normally, few sects would do this."

Lu Zhiqiu said firmly:

"Don't worry, I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong. At worst, I'll become a great monk and send you ten back."

Zhao Youxuan coughed twice and stopped Lu Zhiqiu from speaking any further.

Think for a moment.

He still agreed to Lu Zhiqiu's request.

He gave a light drink.

The two long swords behind him were unsheathed, one was the Golden Core Sword, the other was the Foundation Establishment Sword, one main and one auxiliary, and they blasted forward.

A big hole was suddenly dug out in the densely packed spirit stone mine.

"Let's go, let's follow."

Lu Zhiqiu reminded.

He grabbed Wu Mengyu, who had just sat up and was still dazed, and ran into the cave.

Zhao Youxuan led the way.

Wu Mengyu and Lu Zhiqiu observed from behind.

soon.

The three of them discovered something unusual.

"I remember reading that the closer to the core of the spirit vein, the higher the content of top-grade spirit stones in the attached spirit stone mine."

"But why is the content of top-grade spirit stones here not as good as outside?"

Lu Zhiqiu pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.

"That's right. If we hadn't seen so many top-grade spirit stones outside just now, we wouldn't have judged it to be a fourth-grade spirit vein."

"But now we are almost reaching the main body of the spirit vein. If the content of top-grade spirit stones is only to this extent, then it is at most a sixth-grade spirit vein."

Wu Mengyu also nodded in agreement.

Zhao Youxuan frowned, his expression looking a little ugly:

"But I just used magic to detect it, and it is indeed a fourth-grade spiritual vein without a doubt."

"Magic can be deceived."

Lu Zhiqiu's words were powerful.

Zhao Youxuan stopped talking.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that what Lu Zhiqiu said was true.

About half a quarter of an hour passed.

The three of them finally arrived at the core spiritual vein.

But here, there is no overwhelming spiritual energy that everyone imagines, which does not give people a refreshing feeling.

There was only a wilted little spiritual snake lurking here.

"This... this is a sixth-grade spiritual vein, and it's about to be exhausted. Those top-grade spiritual stones outside are just artificial embellishments to deceive people!"

Zhao Youxuan was so angry that his beard was almost crooked.

Lu Zhiqiu's face was solemn. He pointed at the small black spot on the forehead of the spiritual snake and said seriously:
