The sky was dimly lit, and Ji Ning and his father, Ji Yichuan, were already on their way to the source of the intense fluctuations in the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

  "Huh? I've never compared physical skills with Father before, and his speed is actually this fast?" Ji Ning was shocked to the extreme. His own physique could rival that of an ordinary divine demon's cultivation at the early stages of the Violet Palace, and with the aid of the Wind Wing Escape Technique, his speed was already astonishingly high. Even without relying on the feathered wings, it was still shocking, yet Father Ji Yichuan was able to keep up with him at all times.

  "Father, what's going on with you? Have you opened the Purple Mansion?" Ji Ning hastily asked through True Yuan transmission, unaware that in that calamity years ago, aside from the Eldest Brother and Sister, his father Ji Yichuan was also severely injured.

  "No need to ask more." Ji Yichuan obviously didn't want to mention it, "This is already my limit now."

  Chapter 14 Large Mineral Vein "Understood." Ji Ning nodded.

  He could have gone even faster if he had used his Law Treasure Wings, but it wasn't necessary anymore.

  Whoosh! Whoosh!

  The two of them advanced like a wisp of smoke, and at this extreme speed, the several thousand miles were covered in just half an hour. This level had already reached the standard of a Zifu disciple.

  "It should be around this area." Ji Ning stopped and stood on the crown of an ancient giant tree, overlooking a forest, "The source of that fluctuation won't be more than three hundred miles away from here."

  "It should be." Ji Yichuan also nodded.

  "We'll take a closer look." The two of them flew around the surrounding area, carefully searching, and soon Ji Yichuan even directly dove into the ground, only to come out a moment later: "Ji Ning, come here." Ji Ning leaped over, tracing a path of flowing light, and arrived at a clump of weeds where Ji Yichuan was standing.

  "What's wrong?"

  "There is a yuan stone underground." Ji Yichuan said solemnly, "And it should be a very rich yuan stone vein. I've even found top-grade yuan stones."

  "Top-grade Yuan Stone?" Ji Ning was also shocked, "There is actually top-grade Yuan Stone under the Ji Clan's territory?"

  "This Yuan stone vein is very rich, and its miscellaneous stones are few. However, because it's a large-scale mine vein of the 14th chapter... this Earth Escape Technique cannot pass through the Yuan stone." Ji Yichuan said, "Relying solely on the escape technique can only reach a depth of over 50 zhang, which is considered the surface layer of the Yuan stone vein. Further down... is the rich mine vein."

  Ji Ning nodded. The Earth Escape Technique could shuttle through some ordinary mud and rocks, but it couldn't penetrate certain special materials, such as yuan stones.

  "Ah!"

  A golden light suddenly shot up into the sky from a hundred miles away, and the sound was even more ear-piercing.

  Ji Ning and Ji Yichuan both turned their heads to look over.

  "Ji Clan Golden Arrow!" Ji Ning and Ji Yichuan immediately sprang into action, dashing towards the fleeing figure with a speed of one li in just one flash. This Ji Clan Golden Arrow was a summons, calling upon all Ji Clan males who saw it to hurry over.

  ……

  Ji Ning and Ji Yichuan saw more than a dozen people in the distance, including Ji Jiu Huo wearing a gray robe and Shadow Granny. The others were all from the Ji Clan's ancestral mansion, after all, this place was closest to the Ji Clan's ancestral mansion, Wan Jian City. This group of people also turned their heads to look over, recognizing the father-son duo.

  "Yi Chuan, you father and son arrived so quickly." Ji Jiu Huo said.

  "We rushed all the way from Wanjian City and just arrived, but you father and son actually came from Xifu City as well."

  "Awesome."

  These innate spirits also praised.

  "They all arrived quickly." A burst of laughter sounded, and a flash of light came swiftly from afar, then fell down and walked over. It was a young man wearing animal hide.

  "Lu Zhen has also arrived." Ji Jiu Huo smiled and nodded.

  Ji Ning glanced at the young man, whose name was Ji Liuzhen, the number one person of the Ji Clan's Northern Manor and equal to his own father. Now it seemed that in such a short time he had rushed over from the Northern Manor... this Ji Liuzhen should also be a Purple Mansion cultivator.

  "I have two Purple Mansion cultivators in my clan, Jiuyue Huo and Ying Popo." Ji Ning thought to himself, "However, a clan must have its legacy, the younger generation should have someone who has reached the level of Purple Mansion cultivator. Now looking at it, this Ji Liuren is indeed a Purple Mansion cultivator. My father, based on his previous cultivation method, might also be a Purple Mansion cultivator!"

  Ji Yichuan and Ji Liuzhen exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

  Ji Yichuan spoke up: "I don't know what the clan leader has gathered us for."

  "You must have discovered it too." Ji Jiu said solemnly, "There is a rich yuan stone vein under this land."

  "Mm." The tribespeople all nodded, their eyes even showing some excitement.

  According to the rules of the Daxia Dynasty, every large city in Daxia has a radius of 10,000 miles as its territory. As for some disputed areas at the borders with other territories, it depends on who has the bigger fist. And this yuan stone mine is very close to Wanjian City, according to the rules set by the dynasty... it undoubtedly belongs to the Ji family!

  "This vein is not only rich, but also large." Jiufei looked around, "Now we need to explore the exact scale of this yuan stone vein. I'll fly east-southeast to investigate, Lü Zhen you go north, and Ying you go west-southwest. As for the others, carefully examine how deep this vein is and what its quality is like. No matter what you find, let's meet back here in two hours."

  "Yes."

  Each one obeyed orders.

  Very soon, three rays of light flew in three directions, while Ji Ning and others began to dig into the ground. Since Yuanshi couldn't escape, they could only slowly dig.

  "Go." Ji Ning was surrounded by a lotus flower made of water and fire, the petals spinning around him, easily piercing through the ground below.

  Ling Ning took light steps and walked down.

  Just as they were walking away, the mud above collapsed.

  Ji Ning didn't care and continued downwards... soon he came into contact with the surface of the yuan stone vein, large chunks of yuan stone were connected to each other like ugly rocks, these were all low-grade yuan stones, at first glance they didn't look much different from ordinary rocks, only emitting a lot of heavenly yuan energy.

  Hehe ~~ Water and fire flowers easily pierced through, Ji Ning continued to move forward in the downward direction, advancing at a shocking speed.

  "It's so deep." Ji Ning felt that he had already gone down for hundreds of miles, and yet he was still in a vast layer of yuan stones. "The range of hundreds of miles is all yuan stone, how deep is this vein? Moreover, this vein is only tens of meters away from the ground, and it has never been discovered for such a long time?"

  Ji Ning was unaware, but previously the Fire Dragon Immortal had set up a large array, who could have discovered it?

  "Plop." Finally back in touch with familiar soil.

  "Over three hundred li deep." Ji Ning's heart was shocked, "Ordinary mineral veins are usually laid flat and spread out, just the depth is like this, what about the length and width?"

  Whoosh!

  Ji Ning followed and started walking quickly upwards.

  It's been a long time...

  They finally walked back to the ground, and soon arrived at their previous gathering place. There were already four people in that gathering place: Ji Jiu Huo, Ying Po Po, Lao Biao, and Ji Liu Zhen.

  "Ji Ning." Ji Jiu Huo looked at Ji Ning with a gleam in his eyes, "Have you investigated clearly?"

  "Uh-huh." Ji Ning nodded, looking around at the surrounding eyes that were over 300 miles deep. It was more difficult than flying thousands of miles. Fortunately, he had relied on the Water and Fire Lotus to borrow the power of heaven and earth, making it easy for him. Others would have to slowly drill through while consuming their true yuan.

  "How deep?" Ji Jiu Huo and several others looked at Ji Ning.

  "More than three hundred miles." Ji Ning said.

  Ji Jiu Huo, Ying Po Po, and Ji Liu Zhen all changed their expressions. They couldn't help but be shocked that Ji Ning was able to travel back and forth over 300 miles underground in just a little over an hour, because at this moment their hearts had already begun to panic.

  "What's wrong?" Ji Ning asked in rapid succession.

  "This is a yuan stone vein." Jiufei Zheng said solemnly, "We have also explored it, and it has an area of over 4,000 miles! If the depth is over 300 miles... then this is absolutely a large-scale yuan stone vein. Such a large-scale yuan stone vein, for our Ji family, is not a blessing, but a great disaster!"

  What a disaster!

  Ji Ning's heart skipped a beat as she suddenly understood that no matter how big one's stomach is, eating too much can still lead to bursting.

  "This is a rich mine, and it's so vast." Ji Jiu Zheng said solemnly, "Once fully exploited, its value will far exceed that of my Ji family by who knows how many times. Can you say my Ji family can bear it?"

  This vein...

  He is a Yuan Shen Daoist, the 'Fire Dragon Daoist', who spared no expense to set up a large formation to gather the surrounding heaven and earth yuan qi for his breakthrough. He gathered enough to form a mine vein that took 100 years to form. If all of it was mined, it would be worth more than half of a Yuan Shen Daoist's family assets. But because the Fire Dragon Daoist broke through to become a Di Xian, his vision became much higher. Moreover, mining the vein is really too troublesome, even a Yuan Shen Daoist might not bother with it, only Wan Xiang Zhen people would be enthusiastic about it.

  "What's going to happen now?" Shadow Granny asked repeatedly.

  "I'm not afraid of anything else, just Snow Dragon Mountain!" Ji Jiu's face was full of worry. "Our Yan Mountain's Snow Dragon Mountain is just a branch, but behind it... lies the Snow Dragon Mountain Sect! That's a major sect with a Yuan Shen Dao master in charge. And judging by the time, I'm afraid the Zifu cultivators from the Snow Dragon Mountain Yan Mountain branch have already arrived in the surrounding area!" ******Monday, Tomato asks for recommendation votes!
