"Uncle Xuan Sen!"
Lu Ping greeted the person in surprise when he saw the person in front of him. The person in front of him was the real Xuansen who was seriously injured by the demon clan three years ago and whose cultivation base was almost lost. Daoist has been practicing in closed doors to restore his cultivation all these years, but he didn't want to see him today on this ice island.
"Master uncle's cultivation has improved?"
Master Xuansen smiled and said: "This time is really a blessing in disguise, thanks to the Pregnancy Vein Pill you refined, Master Uncle, I not only recovered my cultivation base, but after taking Uncle Tianlu's Zhongding Pill, I was lucky enough to raise my cultivation base to Eight layers of alchemy."
Xuan Shang and the others also stepped forward to congratulate him. Master Xuan Sen smiled and said, "Come with me, there is a dark tide raging on this ice island right now, and I was worried that there would be insufficient manpower, so Senior Brother Tianlin sent you to wait." come over."
Lu Ping and the others followed Master Xuansen and walked towards a camp on the island.
Reverend Xuanshang and Reverend Xuanlei are impatient people, and they asked on the road: "Master, how is the situation on the island? Have you found traces of the spirit stone vein?"
Master Xuan Sen's face was a bit serious and he said: "The Ice Island is covered by years of ice and snow, and the thinnest part is fifty feet above the ground, and the hard ice has been accumulated for tens of thousands of years, and its hardness is far beyond imagination. It is extremely difficult to find the spirit stone veins."
Master Xuansen finished speaking, and then turned his head to Master Xuanwei and said: "Master Xuanwei is the formation mage of our sect second only to sister Xuanchen, and he is quite proficient in surveying earth veins. Finding and fighting for it, nephew Xuanwei will do more work for those who can, and we should give our best to help."
After all, Master Xuan Sen looked at everyone, and Lu Ping and the others said in unison: "It should be so!"
Immortal Xuanwei changed his previous playful personality, and his face became a little solemn in meditation, and asked: "Even if it is a medium-sized spirit stone mine, since all the major sects in Beihai have already stepped forward, and there are people like my uncle who are in the late stage of alchemy The monks are guarding it, and all factions have exchanged agreements in private, so why are there such turmoil now?"
Master Xuansen said in a concentrated voice: "You are right. Just the day before, a monk in the Shuiyan Pavilion who is quite proficient in surveying the earth's veins found a medium-sized spiritual vein at the bottom of an ice mountain cliff in Ice Island. The Shuiyan Pavilion tried to find it. It was his own, but it was smashed by a monk of the Linggu Sect. The Shuiyan Pavilion wanted to kill people in a hurry, but it attracted the intervention of the Xuanling Sect. Now the top ten sects are quarreling over the ownership of this spiritual vein. "
Lu Ping, Master Xuanshang and others were very surprised when they heard that a medium-sized spiritual vein was found on the island, but Master Xuanwei frowned even more, and said, "Master, I first found the trace of the mineral vein, and now I found the trace of the vein again." If the spirit veins are broken, this Frost Island may not be peaceful."
Master Xuan Sen couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and said, "How do you say it?"
Xuanwei Daoist said: "In the cultivation world, it is very rare for a spirit vein and a spirit stone mine to conceive at the same time. Generally, there are only two situations. One is that there is either only one spirit vein on this ice island, or there is only one Second, if the two veins really coexist, since there is already a medium-sized spirit vein, then the spirit stone mine on Frost Island is either small or a large spirit stone mine!"
Master Xuanwei’s words surprised Master Xuansen and Lu Ping and the others: There are only a few medium-sized spirit stone mines in the entire North Sea, and the reason why Beihai is called barren in the cultivation world is that there is no large-scale spirit stone mine. The existence of the above-mentioned Lingshi mine is also an important reason.
If it is really a large-scale spirit stone mine, everyone can imagine how big waves it will cause in the North Sea.
Master Xuan Sen's complexion changed, and he suddenly said: "No wonder Lu Xuheng of the Xuanling Sect went crazy to support the Linggu Sect, and the Shuiyan Pavilion and Haiyan Sect did not give up even an inch when they teamed up. It turned out that these three sects had already thought of a large-scale On the Lingshi Mine, fortunately, the real person has a good heart, and if he thinks something is wrong, he will immediately ask the sect for support, otherwise this time, these few companies will really be fooled."
Master Xuanwei also said anxiously: "The most urgent thing now is for my uncle to join the Chongming, Yujian, and Canghai sects to intervene in the battle between the two parties. At least it is a medium-sized spiritual vein, although it may not be the source of the spiritual stone mine. Where the main vein is, but once the two veins grow side by side, there should be at least one spiritstone mine vein there, and we must not let the Xuanling Sect, Shuiyan Pavilion, and Haiyan Sect take advantage of it. At the same time, I will wait before other sects , Try to survey some areas where the veins may appear and occupy them first, and then slowly excavate them, so that our faction can be invincible first."
Master Xuanwei's orderly arrangement, Lu Ping and others admired it very much, Master Xuansen was overjoyed, and said: "Let's do as nephew Xuanwei said, thanks to nephew Xuanwei coming this time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. This real person will no longer have the face to gain a foothold in the sect."
After arranging everyone properly, Master Xuansen contacted the monks sent by Chongming, Yujian, and Canghai sects to Frost Island to go to the meeting place between Xuanling sect, Shuiyan Pavilion and Haiyanmen, and forcibly intervene in it. Although this move made the Xuanling faction, the Shuiyan Pavilion, and the Haiyan sect very unhappy, the real Xuansen simply clarified the matter in front of all the sects, and the other sects who did not know the details were shocked, even Ling Gu Pai didn't know in advance that the Xuanling faction had such a plan to stand up for themselves in the name of the alliance.
The Linggu, Feiyu, and Canglang sects have always regarded the Xuanling faction as the leader, but they never thought that the Xuanling faction would leave their allies aside to discuss secretly with the Shuiyan Pavilion and Haiyanmen alone for their own benefit. Although Xu Heng tried his best to defend himself, and the three allies quickly reached an understanding, but the behavior of the Xuanling faction has at least planted the seeds of renunciation among the Linggu faction.
At the same time when the various factions started a new round of wrangling, Lu Ping and the other five started secretly surveying the area where the Lingshi veins might exist on Frost Island in the name of patrolling the island non-stop.
However, the area of Frost Island is equivalent to a medium-sized island, and the island is covered by tens of feet of solid ice. In order not to attract the attention of other sects, everyone was careful when assisting Master Xuanwei in the survey.
Master Xuanwei secretly surveyed for most of the day, but he only confirmed that there is a very likely existence of a spirit stone vein in an ice valley. As for whether it is the main vein or a branch vein, it is not known. This ice valley was volunteered by Master Xuanshang to stay. Guarding, the other four explored in other directions again.
However, Lu Ping and the others still underestimated the vigilance of the various factions. After Master Xuansen made it clear that there might be a large-scale spirit stone mine on the island, all the factions have secretly strengthened their vigilance, and at the same time began to report to the sect for support. And the four people from the True Spirit Sect were patrolling the island on this icy and snowy island where there are few monsters. Naturally, it seemed too abrupt. Then, the number of people patrolling the island first changed from five to four, and then changed from four to three. People, the various factions could not have imagined that the True Spirit faction had their own wishful thinking, so they dispatched monks to seize areas on the ice island where there might be spirit stone veins.
After the Xuanling Sect, the Shuiyan Pavilion, and the Haiyan Sect were the first to realize that there might be a large-scale spiritual stone mine on the island, they had a tacit understanding in the quarrel about the spiritual veins, and they put on a posture of imminent tension and dispatched from their respective sects. Manpower, prepare for the possible large-scale spirit stone mine.
However, in order to conceal the other factions, after the three factions transferred the monks, they did not carry out any major survey operations. In this way, after the True Spirit Sect saw through the calculations of the three factions and directly began to survey the spirit stone veins, the three factions did not On the contrary, the progress of the survey of spiritual veins lagged behind the True Spirit faction.
A day later, nine forging alchemy monks backed by the True Spirit Sect and its allies Chongming Sect, Jade Sword Sect, and Canghai Sect arrived, accompanied by more than a hundred low-level monks from four sects, nine of whom were alchemy alchemists. There are three Qi monks, Chongming, Yujian, and Canghai, but the True Spirit Sect has never sent forging alchemy monks to arrive. Obviously this is also an unspoken rule of the Beihai factions, but the True Spirit Sect sent four teams of Hemolytic Qi and Six teams of blood refining disciples came, and the rest of the low-level monks came from the other three sects.
The monk team of the True Spirit School is usually led by a late-stage hemolysis monk during the hemolysis period, plus two mid-hemolysis monks and three early-hemolysis monks, while the trial team during the blood-refinement period must reach the late-stage blood-refinement stage .
After the low-level monks arrived, the True Spirit Sect took the lead in mining the surveyed areas, and the other three factions were also intensively occupying some possible areas for surveying.
Although the low-level monks of Xuanling Sect, Shuiyan Pavilion, and Haiyanmen Sect have not yet arrived, they have also occupied several areas. However, the manpower is limited, so we can only watch as the True Spirit Sect relies on sufficient manpower to take over the few areas they had hoped for beforehand. area occupied.
Another day later, dispatched monks from other factions also arrived one after another and joined in the division of the Frost Island. For a time, a medium-sized island in the Frost Island could accommodate forty-six alchemy-stage monks, and other hemolytic There were more than 300 low-level monks used to dig ice and mine during the early and blood refinement periods, and the cold ice island, which had always been inaccessible, suddenly became crowded with people.
On the third day, the monks from various sects who could no longer sit still finally compromised and divided the medium-sized spiritual veins found at the bottom of the ice mountain into ten small-scale spiritual veins. The two small spirit-gathering beads found in the veins belonged to the Shuiyan Pavilion and the Linggu faction who first discovered the spirit veins, and the three miniature spirit-gathering beads went to Zhenling, Xuanling, and Haiyanmen. The array mages surveying the spiritual veins unite to find the main vein of the possible spiritual stone veins in the place where the spiritual veins converge.
In desperation, Master Xuanwei ended his survey trip. In the short two days, he has already surveyed three areas that are very likely to have Lingshi veins. The low-level monks who came to mine have not yet mined the Lingshi mine.
In fact, there was Lu Ping who was helpless. After hearing about the medium-sized spiritual vein at the bottom of the ice mountain cliff, Lu Ping thought of how many years this spiritual vein had been conceived on the Juling Orb. It must have condensed the spirit-gathering beads, but the great treasure earth escape technique is unique, but it can't ice escape, and can't pass through the thick ice to reach the spiritual veins. Lu Ping didn't dare to let Dabao take such a risk even if he was a monk in the later stage of alchemy like Master Xuansen.
However, after the monks of various factions gathered to survey the Lingshi veins and explored at the bottom of the ice mountain cliff, the survey of other areas of Ice Island slowed down. The area where the Lingshi Mine appeared was more than 200 miles around the entire Frost Island, where hundreds of people could completely occupy it.
On the fourth day, a gleaming sound-transmitting magic sword flew out from the bottom of the ice mountain cliff, and Lu Ping was shocked. Sure enough, a sound-transmitting talisman from Immortal Xuansen came to him.
Lu Ping reached out to take it, and there was only one sentence on it: "The main vein of the large-scale Lingshi mine has been discovered. Be alert to all factions. There will be ancestors from this faction coming."
