Chapter 1127: Chapter 1126: Emergence of the Dragon Vein

Originally, Gu Fei wanted revenge, but now he dismissed the idea.

This is someone he couldn’t possibly provoke, so he decided to act like nothing happened at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, the abbot of Lanruo Temple, Master Ji Mie, walked over toward Qin Hao.

Master Ji Mie walked up to Xue Lingling, looked at her, and asked, "Little girl, you have a rare wisdom. What do you think of my Buddhist teachings?"

Ling’er looked at him and said, "Pretty good, makes one feel comfortable."

Upon hearing this, Master Ji Mie had a kind and benevolent smile on his face, "Would you be willing to cultivate in Buddhist teachings?"

Ling’er glanced at Qin Hao, hesitated for a moment, and said, "My master has already taught me a cultivation technique, I cannot learn something else."

Master Ji Mie smiled, "I just spoke with State Preceptor Qin, and he won’t stop you from learning Buddhism. As long as you’re willing, you can learn."

Ling’er turned to Qin Hao, and Qin Hao nodded, indicating that was indeed his intention, as long as Ling’er was willing.

"So, what do you think?" Master Ji Mie felt he was close to success.

Ling’er: "If I study Buddhism, what would I have to give up? I have nothing."

Master Ji Mie gave a faint smile, "Buddha guides those with affinity; as long as you have a connection with Buddha, anyone can learn Buddhism without any restriction. I see you have great wisdom, how about becoming my closed-door disciple? I will teach you a myriad of great Mahayana Buddhist teachings."

Upon hearing his latter words, Ling’er shook her head without thinking, "I have one master, I won’t take another."

Master Ji Mie was stunned for a moment; some of the elite figures around were also at a loss.

Master Ji Mie went through all this trouble to take this girl as a disciple, yet it’s in vain as she simply doesn’t want to.

Honestly, many people felt regret for Xue Lingling.

What kind of person is Master Ji Mie—if he wished to take disciples, those seeking apprenticeships would flatten Lanruo Peak.

Now that he’s willing to personally take this girl as a disciple, yet she refuses.

If she agreed, she might reach an exceedingly high realm in the future. If not, with her Supreme Furnace Body alone, countless would seek her.

...

At this moment, Master Ji Mie smiled and said, "It’s fine if you don’t become my disciple. As long as you have Buddha in your heart, everything you see is Buddha. I was too attached, little girl, you can come to Lanruo Temple often, and I’ll explain things to you personally."

"Thank you, grandfather," Ling’er bowed gratefully.

Master Ji Mie: "You’re welcome. The door to Lanruo Temple is always open for you. I insisted on making you my disciple earlier due to my own attachment. I must thank the little girl for her refusal. Keep this incense pouch; it will save your life if you’re in danger."

Those around could see Master Ji Mie’s intent and realized he truly cared for this little girl and wanted to protect her.

The ceremonious outing of Lanruo Temple had concluded, and people from the great forces didn’t linger, leaving one after another.

Qin Hao and the others also headed down the mountain, while Lan Manshuang was taken back by her mother.

Everyone from the other major powers had left. Zhou Liuxing gave Qin Hao a look full of fighting spirit as he departed, seemingly wanting to challenge him in a fight.

...

Back in the capital, Qin Hao and Ling’er followed Ye Lingyi to the palace.

Initially, some had thoughts about Ling’er, but ever since seeing that Master Ji Mie gave her an incense pouch, those thoughts were dismissed.

This Master Ji Mie is an ancient monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years, his power terrifying beyond words. No power would want to provoke him for no reason.

Upon reaching Ye Lingyi’s chamber, the three of them sat down on the chairs.

Ling’er looked at the two of them, smiling, "Master, Mistress, I’ll go cultivate. You two talk, I won’t disturb you."

Ye Lingyi’s delicate face blushed, casting a glance at Ling’er’s retreating figure.

At this time, Qin Hao’s communication jade stone rang; it was from Xian Yin of the northern Xuanwu Army.

Qin Hao answered the jade stone, "What’s wrong, Xian Yin? Is the Blood Leopard Dynasty mobilizing troops?"

Xian Yin explained, "No, our people discovered a small mid-grade Spirit Stone mine in the nearby mountain ranges."

"Mid-grade Spirit Stone mine??" Qin Hao and Ye Lingyi were astonished upon hearing this.

The dynasty here had never seen a mid-grade Spirit Stone mine, mostly low-grade ones.

Spirit Stone veins are categorized as small, medium, and large.

Small veins usually yield between 500 million to 1 billion Spirit Stones, medium ones generally between 7 billion to 10 billion, and large ones at least over 50 billion Spirit Stones.

Xian Yin: "Yes, a small mid-grade Spirit Stone mine. I’ve already sealed off the area."

A small mid-grade Spirit Stone mine can generally produce 700-800 million mid-grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to 70-80 billion low-grade Spirit Stones.

Qin Hao: "Have the soldiers expedite the extraction, then send them to the capital. Also, dispatch people to inspect the surrounding mountains for other Spirit Stone veins since the world is changing; there might be more soon."

After ending the communication with Xian Yin, Qin Hao sent jade transmissions to Dong Mengqi and Wu Yutong to inquire about their status.

The military forces of the White Tiger Army and Vermilion Bird Army had all been stationed at critical border towns, currently with no issues.

After finishing the communication, Qin Hao began dual cultivation with Ye Lingyi in the chamber.

At this time, the dragon energy within the dynasty’s Jade Seal had become denser, many times more than before.

During the seven or eight days spent at Lanruo Temple, the changes in the dragon vein beneath the capital were significant, and it’s now similar to how it had been in the past.

At nine in the evening, the night sky was dark, with the bright moon and stars glittering brightly.

The entire capital was relatively quiet, with only a few areas brightly lit, which were the entertainment venues of the capital where business boomed at night.

Just then, a dragon’s roar echoed throughout the entire capital, awakening countless cultivators.

They opened their eyes and flew out of their rooms immediately to see what was happening.

A golden divine dragon was swirling above the palace.

Everyone widened their eyes, incredulous at the divine dragon in the night sky. Could this be the legendary divine dragon?

Damn!

"What’s happening? Do divine dragons really exist?"

"That’s not a real divine dragon; it’s formed by the convergence of dragon energy within the dragon vein. Our city’s dragon vein has awakened."

"Dragon vein? We have a dragon vein beneath the city? How come we didn’t know before?"

...

The golden divine dragon spiraled in the sky, illuminating the entire palace below.

About half an hour later, the golden divine dragon turned into countless specks of light, scattering from the sky.

An intense and exceedingly pure aura of heaven and earth surged forth, making the cultivators within the capital feel immensely comfortable, and their cultivation techniques ran faster.

Many cultivators who had been stuck at bottlenecks for years made breakthroughs this night.

The next morning.

Everyone in the capital felt the changes within the city; the Spiritual Energy in the air was many times denser than before, especially in areas close to the palace.
