Chapter 157 Spirit Vein? Of Course It Was Stolen

In the depths of the Cave Mansion, a middle-aged man sat cross-legged. When Li Changsheng walked in, he slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were deep, and there was a faint murderous look in his eyes.

"County magistrate, how did you find out about this Cave Mansion?"

Seeing Li Changsheng, the middle-aged man asked coldly.

"I knew some formations in my early years. The formation at the entrance of the cave is quite mysterious. Even a monk at the Nascent Soul stage may not be able to detect it. Therefore, I conclude that there must be a master who is cultivating here."

Li Changsheng said respectfully.

"I see…"

Hearing Li Changsheng's words, the middle-aged man showed a pensive look, obviously surprised that the new county magistrate knew the formation.

But since Li Changsheng is just a Foundation Building Stage monk, he doesn't care much.

"My name is Zhao Yue. I have been cultivating here for many years. This place is quite clean, and I don't want to change places. How much is your rent?"

Zhao Yue looked at Li Changsheng and asked.

The cultivation world is the empire, and to survive in the empire, no matter where you go, you have to pay a lot of rent. This is also a tradition passed down by the empire for more than 10,000 years.

Zhao Yue was originally a member of the empire, so he didn't mean to embarrass him.

"It is the honor of the younger generation to come to this county, and how dare you charge your rent? The younger generation is only here to ask, what taboos do you have, so that the people in the county will not disturb you when you are cleaning and repairing?" Oh no."

This is the case in the cultivation world, even if it is an Independent Cultivator, as long as it is strong, it does not need to pay rent in a small place like a county town, and the strong are respected.

Those low-level Independent Cultivators don't have this kind of treatment, and they still have to get it.

"You are sensible, the old man has no taboos, since you found out, the old man can give you a chance, if you have difficulties in the future, you can come to the old man once."

In Zhao Yue's mind, it is still possible to get acquainted with county magistrates like this Foundation Building Stage. After all, they may all have direct contact with the existence of the city lord level.

As for the city lords, they are all monks above the third grade and Soul Formation Stage. Zhao Yue also understands this delicate relationship.

"Then thank you for the opportunity, senior."

Li Changsheng was overjoyed, paused, and took out an exquisite gift box from his hands.

"The younger generation doesn't have any presents that can be handed out. It's a small meeting gift, and I hope the senior will accept it with a smile, so the younger generation will leave."

Li Changsheng put down the gift box, turned around and left the Cave Mansion.

Zhao Yue frowned, and glanced at the gift box. After Li Changsheng left, he raised his hand and grabbed the gift box.

In his opinion, the gifts given by a Foundation Building Stage monk are basically low-level items, nothing rare, nothing more than elixirs, thousand-year-old herbs and the like.

Opening the gift box, a black fruit came into view.

Zhao Yue picked up the fruit and frowned even deeper.

This fruit is extremely strange, he has never seen it in his life for so many years.

...

After leaving the Cave Mansion, Zhong Fang had already finished the investigation and collected thousands of Lingshi rents. After the two returned, they saw Master Le Zhenggong waiting for them in the yamen in panic.

"My lord, it's not good, we have dug out a spiritual vein."

Seeing Li Changsheng, Le Zhenggong rushed up and said.

"It's a good thing, what's wrong with it."

"My lord, if you dig out the spiritual vein without permission, you must report it. If you don't report it, if you are discovered by the imperial patrol team, you will be beheaded."

The imperial patrol team is responsible for patrolling all environments in the empire and recording all geographical features in the empire. Simply put, it is for drawing maps.

The only job of these monks is to update a map every year and send it to the empire. Where there are spiritual veins, where there are special supplies, and where there are villages and towns, they must be drawn in detail on the map.

This kind of special patrol team is established in every city. It is an extremely hard and boring job, but the salary is very good, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and there are enough training resources.

Lingting County, where Li Changsheng is located, is preparing to build a bridge and pave the way, and within a year, it will appear on the map of the empire and upload it back to the core of the empire.

These patrols are only responsible for drawing maps, and any changes in the geographical features of the empire will require additional workload.

Li Changsheng followed Master Le Zhenggong to the mountain range, and as expected, he found a small spiritual vein in the center of the mountain, and a large pile of raw spiritual stones were looted by the villagers.

Once such a hidden spiritual vein is discovered, it also belongs to the cultivation resources of the empire and must be reported, and special personnel will come to take over the protection.

The local county magistrate is not qualified to develop it privately.

"Master Yue, can you estimate how much output this spirit vein has?"

Li Changsheng looked at the revealed spiritual veins, and there was a natural lake in the distance. The spiritual veins together with the lake and mountains formed a spectacular waterfall.

People in Lingting County rely on this lake to drink water. This lake forms a stream extending in all directions, running through the entire county, with beautiful mountains and clear waters and outstanding people.

In fact, the monks have long been aware of the existence of invisible spiritual veins here, but no one dared to investigate privately. If an Independent Cultivator dared to probe for hidden spiritual veins privately, it would be a death penalty if caught.

This time, paving the way for the mountains exposed the invisible spiritual veins. If this is reported to the court, it will be big or small.

"Based on calculations, the output of this spiritual vein is estimated to reach the level of 100 million tons, and the purity is extremely high. It is estimated to be a large spiritual vein."

Le Zhenggong hesitated for a moment and said, it was because of the invisible spiritual vein that he panicked, maybe the court would be alarmed, and the entire county would have to move.

If it is a small spirit vein, the fooling around will be over, and the city lord can decide to swallow it himself, but the city lord dare not swallow a large spirit vein.

Li Changsheng's eyes lit up when he heard the billion-ton level. If he took it privately, wouldn't he just make a profit on the money he posted?

Spiritual veins are all resources for cultivation. Close to the spiritual veins, a large formation of Spirit Gathering is being built, which is the holy place for cultivation.

To build this place into a tourist attraction, which one of the monks outside would not spend a lot of money to come to practice.

"Dig, build a super natural large-scale Spirit Gathering Cave Mansion here, and I will bear all the responsibilities."

As soon as Li Changsheng gave an order, he immediately ordered the people of the whole county to start renovating the mountain. Without damaging the lake environment, they opened up cave mansions while digging for spiritual veins. The entire mountain was orderly and beautifully small cave mansions. This is how the prototype appeared.

The small Cave Mansion is linked to the large Cave Mansion, and a large Spirit Gathering array is arranged in each Cave Mansion. For a while, the spiritual energy here gushes out, forming a super natural holy place for cultivation.

If the construction of this place is completed, one day of cultivation inside is comparable to one month of cultivation outside.

But the good times didn't last long, and Cave Mansion was discovered by imperial patrols just after building an outline.

"What do you want?"

On this day, Li Changsheng led Zhongfang, Le Zhenggong, and Feng Yingying to stop two patrolling monks.
