Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 276 Harvesting the Unclaimed Spiritual Vein
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "You flatter me, True Lord."

"The three-day agreement has been fulfilled. If there is nothing else, True Lord, I shall take my leave."

Lu Ping Zhenjun said, "Fellow Daoist, please."

Zhou Qing cupped his hands in greeting to Lu Ping Zhenjun again, then looked at Li Cunyang and Jin Hui and said with a smile, "Please go back, both of you. I will visit you in my spare time to learn from you. Please do not be stingy with your time."

Li Cunyang and Jin Hui's breath hitched, and a strong sense of terror rose in their hearts.

Zhou Qing then called to the sect leader and Mu Zhuosha, and together they soared into the distance.

Watching their departing figures, all the cultivators couldn't help but feel that the Western Continent was truly about to undergo a major upheaval.

The corpse-raising people who had been entrenched here for thousands of years were beyond the reach of the Hongfa Daoist Temple, yet Zhou Qing wiped them out in just half a day, and with such astonishing speed and efficiency.

From then on, no one could say that Zhou Qing could not keep pace with the Dharma propagation center.

……

"Where to go?"

Mu Zhuosha sensed that Zhou Qing's aura was somewhat unstable, so she took him to her flying sword and asked.

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Let's go to Xuan Ying Mountain."

The sect leader glanced at him and, seeing his exhausted expression, exclaimed in surprise, "You're completely exhausted."

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "Not yet, but only three-tenths of my strength remains."

Three points of force?
Both the sect leader and Mu Zhuosha were somewhat confused.

They simply couldn't fathom the meaning of Zhou Qing's three-tenths strength.

If he could wipe out the corpse raiser with seven-tenths of his power, then the remaining three-tenths of his power would be terrifying enough, surpassing even the strongest Golden Core cultivators.

But obviously, that's not how it works.

The sect leader shook his head and said, "You are really bold. You only have three-tenths of your strength left, yet you dare to appear in front of True Monarch Lu Ping."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, he won't dare to make a move."

Mu Zhuosha gave a soft snort and said, "Are you so sure?"

Zhou Qingping said calmly yet confidently, "Of course, who in the entire Western Continent would dare to easily attack me?"

Mu Zhuosha and the sect leader thought about it and found that what he said actually made sense.

So far, neither outsiders nor the elders of the sect know Zhou Qing's true limit, nor do they know if he has any other trump cards up his sleeve.

In this situation, anyone who wants to take action against him should carefully consider whether they can withstand his counterattack.

The sect leader sighed, "Your power has truly been cultivated."

Such people have never appeared in West Antarctica from ancient times to the present.

Mu Zhuosha asked, "By the way, why did you go back to Xuan Ying Sect?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Although the Xuan Ying Sect has been destroyed, the spiritual veins of Xuan Ying Mountain are still there, so we can't let them go to waste."

"I have already sent Xiao Xiao and three others back to Xuan Ying Mountain to occupy the spiritual vein."

"It's been a year since I left the sect. I've experienced countless battles, big and small, and gained a lot. It's time for me to cultivate properly. There's an unclaimed spiritual vein here. How can I just hand it over to someone else?"

The sect leader chuckled and said, "That's just your nature."

In less than a day, the three returned to Xuan Ying Mountain.

Many cultivators remained at the foot of the mountain, most of whom had shallow cultivation and were simply unable to go to Huoquan Mountain to join the fun.

They all gathered at the foot of Xuan Ying Mountain, anxiously awaiting news from Huoquan Mountain.

Instead of receiving any news, Zhou Qing arrived first.

The cultivators were stunned to see Zhou Qing and his two companions fly through the air and enter Xuan Ying Mountain.

"Isn't that Zhou Qing? Why is he back?"

"Of course, he must have successfully wiped out the corpse breeders, otherwise, how could the Hongfa Dojo have let him leave!"

Zhou Qing returned to Xuan Ying Mountain, and news that he had seemingly wiped out the corpse-raising people quickly spread throughout the area, sparking much discussion. Zhou Qing and his companions landed at the summit of Xuan Ying Mountain, where Xiao Xiao, Lin Li, Huang Quan, and Qin Xue were already waiting.

"Greetings, Master Zhou!"

The four of them exclaimed excitedly.

Upon seeing Zhou Qing appear, they understood that he must have accomplished yet another unprecedented miracle.

Zhou Qing nodded slightly and smiled, "Has the spiritual vein been found?"

Xiao Xiao replied, "We've found it. It's in a cave not far away."

Zhou Qing nodded, looked at the sect leader and Mu Zhuosha, and asked, "Would you two like to stay here for a while, or return to the sect now?"

Mu Zhuosha laughed and said, "I want to stay. I find it much more fun around you than in the sect."

The sect leader said, "You cannot stay. I need to go back and break through to the Nascent Soul stage soon. You must protect me."

Mu Zhuosha's smile vanished instantly, and she sighed helplessly.

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Sect Leader, after we return, we can gradually expand the scale of the Nine Sects Alliance."

"Also, give the order for me to have the Nine Sects Alliance expedite the production of 200,000 relay stations and distribute them throughout the entire Western Continent."

Zhou Qing originally controlled more than 80,000 relay stations, which seemed like a lot, but they were distributed throughout Western Antarctica, making them insignificant.

This led to many oversights in his surveillance of West Antarctica.

Especially for those sects that are not closely associated with the Nine Sect Alliance, their sphere of influence and the number of relay stations are even fewer.

After the battle to wipe out the corpse-raising people, Zhou Qing was certain that no sect would dare to drive away the relay station of the Nine Sects Alliance.

It's time to make his surveillance network more robust.

The sect leader nodded and said, "I will give the order for you."

The two did not linger in Xuanying and soon set off back to Qingyun Sect.

Breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage was the sect leader's long-cherished wish, and he was already quite impatient to do so.

However, after careful consideration, the sect leader suddenly felt somewhat bored.

He always regarded his breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage as a significant event, a courageous act of resistance against the Buddhist community.

But now he realizes that breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage doesn't seem like such a big deal after all...

After the sect leader and Mu Zhuosha left, Zhou Qing did not rush to go into seclusion to cultivate. He anticipated that there would still be some worldly matters to deal with.

As expected, in the following days, all the leaders of the Nine Sects Alliance came to Xuan Ying Mountain to pay their respects to Zhou Qing.

There wasn't anything important to discuss; it was just a gesture of closeness.

After Zhou Qing received them one by one, he called Xiao Xiao and the other three to his side and decided to go into seclusion at the spiritual vein of Xuan Ying Mountain.

The spiritual vein of Xuan Ying Mountain is much smaller than that of Qing Yun Mountain. Fortunately, this spiritual vein no longer needs to supply other disciples, and he can use it at will.

Such a good opportunity is rare, and Zhou Qing plans to improve his cultivation level.

He instructed Xiao Xiao and the other three to cultivate in the cave on their own, while also handling some miscellaneous tasks for him.

The main purpose is to collect ancient notes.

More and more cultivators are now coming to Xuan Ying Mountain with a pilgrimage mentality.

They should be able to collect quite a few ancient notes.

After arranging everything properly, Zhou Qing entered the deepest part of the cave, the source of the spiritual vein.

Before cultivating, Zhou Qing first entered his own Dao Heart World.

On the day he wiped out the corpse breeders, he developed a powerful aura, and Zhou Qing felt that his Dao heart had undergone a qualitative change.

He needs to go in and confirm.
