Chapter 34: Benefiting the Family
This cave was left by a senior who had built his foundation.
This person was named Zhang Zhiyun, a cultivator born and raised in Xingsha Islands. He was well-known in the casual cultivation world and had reached the late stage of building his foundation.
More than sixty years ago.
Zhang Zhiyun fought with others and injured his body.
After trying various elixirs to treat him, he was in vain. He used up all his spiritual stones and finally chose to sit and die in this cave.
The Xiaoqian Sword Formation in the cave was specially set up by him.
It was to protect his peace after death, so that his body would not be eaten by monsters and become a tool for the magic cultivators to refine.
But he didn't expect that.
This cave, along with the Xiaoqian Sword Formation, was discovered by the three bandit cultivators.
The three bandit cultivators, in the later period, did not know what means they used to circumvent the attack of the killing formation and turned this place into a fishing killing site.
They did this for six or seven years and were not discovered.
As the saying goes, if you walk along the river, you will get your feet wet.
They have now fallen into the hands of Chen Qingyun, and it can be said that evil has been punished.
Chen Qingyun took action and killed three bandit cultivators, and also avenged those cultivators who died in vain in this cave.
After wandering around the cave for a while.
Chen Qingyun's next focus was on the spiritual vein here.
What surprised him was that the level of this spiritual vein had reached the second-grade lower level.
As long as it is used properly, it is entirely possible to establish a cultivation family here and develop some resources.
"It is not in vain to come here to explore the cave today."
"At least, this second-grade spiritual vein is a big harvest, which can be handed over to the family for good use."
"The second-grade spiritual vein is comparable to the spiritual vein of Lingjian Island. It is enough to meet the needs of opening up spiritual fields and planting spiritual medicines."
Understanding the value of this place, Chen Qingyun was happy and took out the communication flying sword as soon as possible, contacted the family, and sent a message to the clan leader.
When taking on the task of guarding Zhenhai Island, Chen Xianming gave Chen Qingyun a communication flying sword.
The communication flying sword is a communication tool, and it itself does not belong to the category of magic tools.
It is good at flying fast, straight, and can set confidentiality prohibitions to protect privacy. It is convenient for communication, and many immortal families will use it.
The location information and basic situation here were simply injected into the communication flying sword, and then the prohibition was set for protection.
The communication flying sword turned into a stream of light and flew straight to Lingjian Island.
The protection prohibition was inherited from the family, and only the Chen family could read the information in the communication flying sword.
Otherwise, if it was read forcibly, the communication flying sword would be directly damaged, which was equivalent to ensuring privacy and security.
At noon that day.
After receiving the communication flying sword, Chen Xianming immediately set off and came to the psychedelic island in person.
"Qingyun, you have a good chance to find the second-level spiritual vein here."
Chen Xianhe Yu used the flying boat and landed in front of Chen Qingyun.
"Where is the exact location of the spiritual vein?"
"It's near the center of the island. Clan leader, come with me."
Chen Qingyun called out, and brought Chen Xianming to the foundation-building cave.
Looking at the scene in the cave and feeling the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him, Chen Xianming's eyebrows were full of smiles.
"Look at this grade, at least it's at the lower second grade."
"Good, good, good!"
The Chen family has only one spiritual vein, which is the clan's Lingjian Island.
This makes the family's resource industry, whether it is spiritual medicine planting, spiritual scallop breeding, or some spiritual fields, all develop and multiply on Lingjian Island.
The Chen family wants to grow in the future. With the increase in the number of cultivators, cultivating high-level cultivators, it is obviously not enough to have only this spiritual vein.
It is easy to have a shortage of spiritual veins and be unable to maintain the operation of the family.
I didn't expect it.
This sixth great-grandson of mine has been away from the family for less than a year.
Now such a second-grade spiritual vein has been discovered.
With this spiritual vein, the family can fully develop resources.
Maintaining the spiritual practice required by the subsequent clan members is not a problem either.
A spiritual vein is too practical for a family.
It is no exaggeration to say that the spiritual vein surpasses the value brought by hematite.
Spiritual ore is a short-term resource.
Spiritual vein is a long-term resource.
Chen Xianming was full of smiles, looking at the spiritual vein of this cave for a while, happy like a child.
Until he realized that as an elder, he was a little out of control in front of the younger generation, then he restrained his expression, calmed down, and asked with a smile.
"Tell me about the process of discovering this spiritual vein. Weren't you stationed on Zhenhai Island before?"
"Okay."
Chen Qingyun heard that there was nothing to hide from the clan leader, and he carefully repeated the whole story.
At the beginning, when he heard that Chen Qingyun went to the Black Cliff Market to purchase elixirs, Chen Xianming remained calm and nodded secretly.
If Chen Qingyun's cultivation level increases, this is what he hopes to see.
Until he heard about Chen Qingyun's experience at the Black Cliff Market stalls, where he spent 70 spirit stones to buy a map, his brows slightly frowned.
"And did you get the opportunity of a cultivator's cave?"
"No."
"Hehe, did you find that you were cheated?"
Chen Qingyun smiled bitterly.
Chen Xianming was smart and guessed something immediately, and smiled bitterly: "Tell me about it."
Guessing that there was a follow-up to this matter, and it was related to this spirit vein, Chen Xianming immediately became interested.
"It is indeed as the clan leader said. The map is not only a scam, but also a trick to fish for money and kill people."
Chen Qingyun recounted the subsequent pursuit and killing on this island.
Chen Xianming listened quietly, and the more he listened, the more he frowned.
When he heard that the three bandits had set traps in the cave and killed countless cultivators, his face showed anger.
"These bandits are really the cancer of the cultivation world! Their methods are more sinister and vicious than each other."
"Fortunately, you did not rashly enter the cave to take risks. If you encounter them again next time, you must be more careful and carefully identify these scams."
"The clan leader taught you that."
Chen Qingyun nodded, knowing that the clan leader was doing it for his own good, and continued.
"But it was a blessing in disguise. It was because of this incident that we had the opportunity to discover this spiritual vein."
"Opportunity is not as important as life."
Thinking of the killing trap set by the three bandits, the old clan leader felt his scalp tingling.
"Alas, people's minds are hard to predict! The intrigues and deceptions in the world of immortal cultivation are often so cruel and real."
"If you encounter such things again in the future, you'd better stay away from them and don't get yourself involved."
Chen Xianming kindly reminded.
"When the family guided you into cultivation, they also taught you some of the travel experiences of the family elders and what they saw and heard."
"I think you have heard a lot and know how to keep a vigilant heart to look at these things and avoid some troubles..."
The old patriarch began to chatter.
