CHAPTER 355: 209. ELDER LEI, WHO UNDERMINES HIS OWN ORGANIZATION

According to what that so-called Mr. Lei Jun had said, the clue to the Celestial Master Robe was in his elder brother’s hands, but its current whereabouts were unknown, and White Spring Mountain was another important stronghold of the Sui Dynasty descendants.

Whether or not Lei Jun’s target could actually be found at White Spring Mountain still remained uncertain.

*Wandering from place to place, relying on luck like this... feels a bit too passive,* Lei Jun thought to himself.

After the Supreme Pure Golden Bamboo was fully infused with Kui Ox Blood, he first put away his own magic artifact.

The bamboo shoot had grown more than twice as thick as before.

Lei Jun shook his head slightly and then left the Star Dragon Abyss.

Once he exited the Abyss Valley and escaped the chaotic Earth Vein Spiritual Qi down below, he first used a Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman to contact Master Yuan Mobai—lest Yuan Mobai make a wasted trip to the Star Dragon Abyss later on.

As for Yuan Mobai heading in the Qihong Mountain direction, things went just as the perfectly neutral lot had predicted: nothing risky, but also nothing gained.

After receiving Lei Jun’s message, Yuan Mobai replied, "Sometimes good fortune comes by accident. Since there’s already a connection, let’s go take a look at White Spring Mountain. However, you make a fair point, so I’ll contact General Xiao and He to go together. Chongyun, you don’t have to go this time. Feel free to roam around and try your luck elsewhere."

"Yuan Mobai’s words were exactly what Lei Jun had wished for, "Disciple obeys."

After contacting Master Yuan Mobai, Lei Jun returned to the Star Dragon Abyss once more.

Although the Earth Vein Qi here was chaotic, Lei Jun still managed to notice some clues beneath it all.

Before, the Sui Dynasty descendants had tried to use the Earth Vein Qi for their purposes, but when things went awry, they were forced to abandon the place in haste, leaving some traces behind.

If others came to see these traces, they would inevitably feel confused.

But Lei Jun, who had recently raised his comprehension to the Tranquil Level and kept studying the Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talisman, perceived this Earth Vein differently now.

After he researched the area carefully for a while, he delved deeper into the underground valley, coming into contact with the vast network of Spiritual Energy veins, as immense as a grand river.

After a while, Lei Jun held a ritual at this underground spot.

With the Yin Yang Pen in hand, he drew up brand new Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talismans on the spot.

With his current cultivation at the Sixth Heavenly Layer and already having forged a Tao Seal, now able to control the Global Spiritual Qi, he could craft high-grade Spirit Talismans of superior quality.

But to create top-grade, high-level talismans, they would have to be Life-bound Talismans.

Lei Jun did not insist on that for now; instead, he fully focused on his talisman crafting.

For talisman crafting, minimizing disturbance from the outside world was preferred, and this certainly wasn’t the ideal environment, but Lei Jun was determined to use the flow of Earth Vein Qi here to his advantage.

The talisman he crafted this way might not be the very best he could make at his current level, but it was undoubtedly the most suitable for this situation.

Under the influence of Earth Vein Qi, Lei Jun even failed several attempts at Spirit Talismans.

He did not mind this; instead, he simply kept his attention focused and pressed on.

In the end, aligning with the number of the Heavenly Gang, he finished a full thirty-six brand new Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Talismans.

Then, without breaking his ritual, Lei Jun performed the Constellation Step Array atop the underground altar, mobilizing more of the Earth Vein Qi and sealing it all into the talismans in the end.

After that, he cast all those talismans into the roaring, river-like channels of Earth Vein Spiritual Qi below.

The talismans sparkled with light, swept away like debris by a raging grand river, vanishing in an instant.

Lei Jun nodded slightly, sat cross-legged atop the altar, and let his Spiritual Soul leave his flesh, quietly sensing the world around him.

Those talismans, carried along by the flow of the Earth Vein Spiritual Qi, fled far away, splitting off with the branches in the underground, flowing toward different destinations.

A few of them soon disappeared from Lei Jun’s perception.

This indicated that these particular talismans had a subtle flaw in quality and were ruined by the surging Earth Vein Spiritual Qi.

But the majority of them wavered back and forth, still returning their spiritual resonance to Lei Jun.

Lei Jun nodded slightly; his Spiritual Soul returned to its corporeal body.

He entered the True One Altar Cave Heaven completely, then walked up to the second level of the True One Altar.

On the second layer of the altar, as the stars revolved, Lei Jun’s feet moved in harmony, casting the Star-stepping Spell once more.

With each movement, a brand new Star Chart appeared in the center of the altar’s second tier.

On this chart, specks of starlight could be seen spreading out and rotating, appearing random, yet each speck seemed to follow the veins of Global Spiritual Qi.

These were exactly the talismans Lei Jun had scattered into the Earth Veins.

He projected their spiritual resonance inside the True One Altar, using the Celestial Master Seal and the altar to host them, so he did not need to spirit travel everywhere for constant sensing.

If everything went smoothly, Lei Jun would be able to use this method to detect changes within a certain range of the Earth Veins.

Whenever there was a disturbance, that just might be the stronghold of the Sui Dynasty descendants.

With Master Yuan Mobai and company heading to White Spring Mountain, Lei Jun turned his attention to the other locations.

Of course, he would have to remain within a certain range for any of this to work.

After all was done, Lei Jun left the True One Altar Cave Heaven, returned to the real world, and took down the Daoist altar he had built in the underground.

Leaving the depths and returning to the surface, only now did Lei Jun have time to examine another of his spoils of war.

When he apprehended Wang Jingfang, the latter had a porcelain vial he cared for dearly, which had now fallen into Lei Jun’s hands.

He opened the porcelain vial and took a look.

[Green Sun Mysterious Frost]

Out of nowhere, *his mind flashed with inspiration and the name came to him just like that.*

Lei Jun had heard of this item before; it was a treasure filled with Yang Qi and Spiritual Nature, but also contained quinmu vitality, making it very suitable for cultivators of the Azure Dragon Lineage in the Pure Yang Palace to use in their cultivation.

It fit Wang Jingfang’s needs perfectly when he acquired it.

By all accounts, this treasure was rare—few even within the Pure Yang Palace possessed it. For Wang Jingfang to have gotten Green Sun Mysterious Frost here in the Southern Wildernes through the Sui Dynasty descendants, that was truly a stroke of luck.

The Green Sun Mysterious Frost itself wasn’t the real issue; what Lei Jun cared about was what lay beyond the Green Sun Mysterious Frost.
