Yang Jian was ordered by Qi Yuan to go underground to explore the direction of the spiritual veins at Guanjiangkou.
Although he himself has not learned the art of earth walking, he does not have the means of coming and going underground as he likes.
However, he has the Eight-nine Mysterious Skills, so this matter will certainly not be a problem for him.
Then, he turned into a pangolin and escaped underground.
Although it is far less flexible than Tu Xingsun underground, it is still enough to allow him to shuttle back and forth underground.
This is the mystery of Bajiu Xuan Gong.
This technique has infinite changes, but the object it changes is not just its shape, but the body is completely transformed into the object it changes, and even the opponent's magic power can be simulated.
It is precisely because of this magical ability that this exercise is called the Xuanmen Protective Exercise.
Of course, this kind of change also has its limits. He can become very similar to beings who are not as powerful as himself, but for some species that are not familiar enough, or those whose magic power and deeds are far superior to his, he can only change his form.
.
There are also some existences, or races, and their magical methods that have been favored by heaven, but he cannot become perfect.
Moreover, this kind of change also requires a lot of mana to maintain. It does not mean that it can continue forever just by turning into the other person's appearance.
But now he has just turned into a pangolin, which is a piece of cake for Yang Jian.
Now that he has become a pangolin, Yang Jian can transform his own magic power and use the pangolin's innate magical power to travel underground.
So he quickly followed the underground spiritual veins and explored all the branches.
Then, I discovered that the spiritual veins underground at Guanjiangkou were actually somewhat miraculous.
Guanjiang Estuary itself has water spiritual veins from several rivers converging here, and the mountain connected to Guanjiang Estuary actually extends its spiritual veins here, showing the potential of the fusion of mountains and rivers, converging into a large top-level spiritual vein.
.
This spiritual vein is extremely widely distributed, but the spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles under their feet is the most abundant.
That's all. The key is that when Yang Jian was exploring the direction of the spiritual veins underground, he discovered seven or eight half-life mines within a radius of several hundred miles.
There are cold iron veins, red yuan copper mines, amethyst chalcedony mines, etc., each of which is quite rare, and the reserves are quite large.
After discovering these mineral veins, even with Yang Jian's Taoist heart, he couldn't help but be a little excited.
So when he got out of the ground and told Qi Yuan these things, there was still a bit of joy on his face.
After all, except for a few magic weapons, he really didn't have any extra possessions.
Now I have discovered so many good things in my guarded place, of course I am happy.
Qi Yuan chuckled: "It seems that your uncle has really good intentions and actually found such a treasure for you.
If you gather some team members and train a group of subordinates in the future, you won't have to worry about running out of supplies."
"..."
Yang Jian was silent for a moment and did not answer.
He didn't know what to say.
When a group of heavenly soldiers and generals broke into his home, his family was destroyed, his father and brother died tragically, and his mother was suppressed and tortured. At that time, his heart was full of resentment towards the Jade Emperor.
After I later discovered that things were not as simple as I thought, my hatred for the Jade Emperor gradually dissipated a lot, but it was impossible to say that I didn't have any grudges in my heart.
Now that his mother has been released, Yang Jian can clearly feel that his mother has no hatred towards the Jade Emperor, and is even guiding them intentionally or unintentionally, hoping that they can recognize the existence of his uncle.
.
Now, even the territory that was given to me by imperial decree is such a blessed land with such rich resources.
He didn't think much about it before, but now after Qi Yuan reminded him, he suddenly felt a little complicated.
However, Qi Yuan's words reminded him that although he originally didn't care much about his divine status, he was used to hanging out in the military camp over the years. Now that he has his own territory, he really wants to train a group of people.
Otherwise, if something happens in the area near Guanjiangkou in the future, he can't just go and solve it all by himself. It would be better to train some subordinates to deal with those trivial matters.
Qi Yuan didn't care what Yang Jian was thinking. He said excitedly: "Originally, I just wanted to help you build a mansion. Now that we have so many mineral veins, why don't we just use these things to build a mansion?"
What do you think of the palace being used as your residence?"
"ah?"
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Although there are several spiritual mines in the spiritual vein land below, there are only a few of them. I'm afraid they may be used to sacrifice the palace..."
He did not finish his words, but Qi Yuan understood what he meant. There were not many types of spiritual minerals associated with the spiritual veins, and not all materials were suitable for use in sacrificial palaces.
Moreover, refining and building are two completely different concepts.
When building a mansion, ordinary materials can be used, but for a sacrificial refining palace, every material used must be suitable for weapon refining.
A huge palace requires so many materials, and many rare materials and various precious supplies are also needed to make the palace more impressive.
It would be okay if it was just Yang Jian who lived there by himself, but his mother, Fairy Yunhua, was also there.
If the palace for sacrifice is not beautiful enough, it is better to build a relatively ordinary mansion!
Qi Yuan looked at Yang Jian, who was a little excited but hesitant, and chuckled: "Don't worry, it's just some weapon refining materials, I can help you get them."
"ah……"
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, looking at Qi Yuan with a little shock in his eyes.
You must know that this is not just a little bit, this is a large palace for sacrifice, and the top-grade materials required are more than ten thousand kilograms?
However, looking at Qi Yuan's confident look, Yang Jian became confused.
Are all Jie Jiao disciples so wealthy?
Qi Yuan smiled secretly in his heart.
Judging from the treasures he collected on Jin'ao Island several times, helping Yang Jian sacrifice a palace was really a piece of cake and not a big deal.
The reason why he didn't bring up this matter before was mainly because the materials he had on him were mostly top-notch weapon-refining materials, but there were none at all like ordinary cold iron and copper.
It would be too wasteful if all the top materials were used to refine the palace, so after hearing Yang Jian talk about these veins below, he talked about refining the palace.
At the moment, the two people sat on the ground. Qi Yuan took out an eight-foot-square animal skin and marked the places where Yang Jian had explored the spiritual veins. Then, based on the distribution of these spiritual veins, he began to design the shape of a palace.
In Qi Yuan's vision, this palace can be regarded as a large magic weapon. Guarding this spiritual vein, it can not only gather spiritual energy, but also possess extremely powerful offensive and defensive formations.
However, his imagination grew wider and wider, and the shape of the palace became more and more complex and huge under his deduction, but Yang Jian's expression also became worse and worse.
According to what Qi Yuan said, his palace was not generally huge, and the amount of materials consumed was beyond his expectation.
Several times he wanted to ask Qi Yuan, could Qi Yuan really provide so many top-quality materials for refining such a huge palace?
Moreover, even if Qi Yuan can provide so many materials, he still has a problem here, that is, how to mine the underground veins.
You can't rely on him to dig holes and mine like a mouse alone, right?
Just as the two of them were discussing the shape of the future palace and how to arrange the formations, they suddenly heard the sound of a horn coming from the water several miles away.
The two were startled and looked up.
In the river flowing into the river mouth more than ten miles away, a group of water troops consisting of thousands of aquatic monsters emerged from the river surface with a roar. Each one waved their weapons and screamed. It took a long time before they finally appeared.
Under the shouts of several generals, they reluctantly lined up.
Then, under the protection of several big monsters in the water, and surrounded by a group of females of different shapes, a fairy sitting on the throne flew out.
This demon king has an ugly appearance with a flat nose and wide mouth, but his aura is quite powerful. After his appearance, he shocked the demon soldiers under his command into trembling with fear.
Qi Yuan and Yang Jian were slightly stunned.
They also knew that Yang Chan killed two water tribe monsters on the river bank before, but they didn't take it seriously. They were just two monsters looking for death.
Now it seems that there is some background behind the two monsters who were killed, and they even provoked a monster fairy.
"who is it?"
After the Dragon Turtle Demon King appeared on the water, he slowly stood up from the throne.
His stature is tall and burly, and combined with the powerful demonic aura, he has a very impressive aura.
He shouted loudly and asked: "Who killed my son?"
The Dragon Turtle Demon King was indeed very angry. He was doing the good deeds he did every day in his harem, but was interrupted by his subordinate demon. He was so angry that he almost swallowed the river shrimp.
Go down.
But when he heard later that his eldest son had been beaten to death, he became even more angry.
He has worked so hard over the years to marry so many wives and concubines, is it just for his own enjoyment?
Of course, a large part of the reason is indeed this, but it is also undeniable that he wants to create a ethnic group.
The Dragon Turtle clan was already very few in number, and due to an accident in the early years, he was the only Dragon Turtle left in the waters of Guanjiang Estuary.
If he doesn't work hard to have more children, how can he carry forward the Dragon Turtle clan in the future?
Now, after hundreds of years of hard work and singing and singing every day, I have only had dozens of sons, many of whom are still relatively young.
Although his eldest son is not the best among them, he is quite popular because he is his first son. In addition, he works hard enough. He is only a few hundred years old and his cultivation is not weak.
Yes, if you cultivate it well in the future, you may not be able to become a demon.
However, now the eldest son, who he had high hopes for, was killed.
And he was killed on his own territory.
Therefore, the Dragon Turtle Demon King was furious and mobilized all his demon soldiers to attack the two women who killed his son.
"It was them, Your Majesty, those two women who killed the eldest prince."
The shrimp demon immediately spotted Yunhua mother and daughter who were leisurely walking not far away, and quickly pointed at them.
However, when the Dragon Turtle Demon King followed the shrimp demon's direction and discovered the figures of the two women, he immediately extinguished most of the anger in his heart.
He looked at the stunningly beautiful faces of the two women, and then at the group of 'harem beauties' with fish-headed and shrimp-like faces around him, and suddenly realized that the harem he was so proud of in the past was nothing more than that.
The Dragon Turtle Demon King adjusted his robes, slowly flew forward, and asked majestically: "You are the one who killed my son?"
When Yang Chan saw such a huge momentum in front of her, she didn't know that the elders behind the two water monsters who were killed were coming to seek revenge.
"Are you talking about the little turtle from before?"
Yang Chan said calmly: "It spoke rudely to me and had evil intentions, so I killed it. Why, you want to avenge it?"
"good."
The Dragon Turtle Demon King shouted: "That is my eldest son. I have worked hard to cultivate him for hundreds of years. He was about to become a talent. However, he was killed by you. It really makes me extremely heartbroken.
This king originally wanted to eat you alive to vent his hatred, but since you were so beautiful, it would be a pity if you died like this."
Yang Chan frowned: "What do you want to say?"
"Hey hey hey..."
Dragon Turtle Demon King suddenly changed his previous anger and said with a smile: "As long as you two obediently go back with me and pay compensation to my two sons, I will forgive you for your sin."
He didn't see Yunhua's cultivation skills, but he found that Yang Chan's skills were not weak, but judging from the aura on her body, it was obvious that she had not yet become an immortal.
The Dragon Turtle Demon King felt that he could defeat Yang Chan with his magical power.
What's more, there are thousands of demon soldiers behind him, who can become a great help to him once they form a formation.
So even if he found out that Yang Chan was an immortal, he didn't take her seriously.
As a result, these words had just been spoken, and before Yang Chan could show his anger, he heard a loud shout from the distance: "Bold evil beast, you dare to make such nonsense, you are seeking death."
But it was the Dragon Turtle Demon King's words that angered Yang Jian.
This damn monster actually dared to pay attention to his mother and sister, which almost made Yang Jian furious.
He was more than ten miles away, so he directly picked up the three-pointed two-edged sword, and slashed out a blade of several hundred feet long, quickly cutting through the void and slashing towards the Dragon Turtle Demon King.
"Um?"
The Dragon Turtle Demon King was shocked.
Unexpectedly, there were other immortals present here.
It was also because all he could think about was women. When he saw Yang Chan and the two of them, there was nothing else in his eyes, so he didn't notice anyone else in the distance.
However, although he was surprised in his heart, he possessed magical powers and felt that even if two immortals joined forces, they might not be able to break his powerful defense.
Therefore, although the Dragon Turtle Demon King was surprised when he saw the fierceness of Yang Jian's sword, his face showed no fear.
He shouted loudly, and a turtle shell figure suddenly appeared behind him, manipulating the huge water energy in the Guanjiang estuary and turning it into a defensive spell to protect him in front of him.
"That boy, who are you? Do you know that you dare to attack and kill this king..."
Just when he was yelling and scolding Yang Jian majestically, he suddenly found that the defensive spell he was proud of had been cut through by the opponent's sword.
The Dragon Turtle Demon King was immediately startled.
However, after all, his natural defense power was astonishing. At the critical moment, he suddenly shrank down, and the phantom of the turtle shell behind him changed from virtual reality to a turtle shell flashing with strange runes, protecting him underneath.
Yang Jian's sword energy was no longer at its peak after being worn down by previous defensive spells. Therefore, after it struck the turtle shell, it did not hurt the Dragon Turtle Demon King and was blocked by his tough and thick turtle shell.
.
"You dare to make a sneak attack, junior?"
When the Dragon Turtle Demon King saw that Yang Jian's sword did not hurt him, he was immediately relieved.
