Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Ye Chen arrived at an open plaza, which was actually more like a small platform than a plaza.

In the middle of the platform is a large rock, taller than a person, with three large characters on it: "Xunlong Mountain".

It seems that Xunlongshan Forest Park is named after this mountain.

This also proves that Ye Chen's direction is correct.

If there is anything special about Xunlong Mountain, it must be on Xunlong Mountain itself.

Ye Chen followed the winding mountain path all the way to the mountainside, as if he were using a scanner to see through everything.

A flood of information rushed into his mind, but thanks to his strong mental fortitude, he was able to process it with relative ease.

Finding a few stones with symbols in the mountains is no less difficult than finding a needle in a lake.

The mountain is full of rocks, and you can easily miss them if you're not careful. It's not as easy as you might imagine.

A certain amount of luck is also required.

Ye Chen didn't think much about it and decided to find out first; he figured he'd only know the answer after he did it.

Since the stall owner was able to find it halfway up the mountain, it proves that it's not too remote. After all, who would come to the park specifically to wander into the woods?

Unless he has some unusual fetish...

Of course, there's also the possibility that people need to use the restroom.

Ye Chen first strolled around the walking path halfway up the mountain.

However, no similar array stones were found along the way, nor were there any traces of an array formation.

Surely the stall owner doesn't have some kind of peculiar fetish for finding it by venturing into the woods halfway up the mountain, right?

Okay, Ye Chen put himself in the shoes of a hiker and went around in circles again.

I searched more than a dozen places that seemed suitable for solving the immediate problem, but I still didn't find anything unusual.

Ye Chen continued walking along the trail towards the mountaintop.

Along the way, he encountered several people hiking or taking a walk, and some of them kept looking at him. He wondered if they were fans who recognized him.

After all, he's now a minor internet celebrity with over 800 million followers, so it's not surprising that he's recognized.

The hotspots in the southern region haven't completely disappeared yet.

However, those people probably wouldn't be so sure, like when you're taking a walk in the county town and suddenly see a big star...

Most people would think that it was just a similar person, and that a real big star would not come to a small county forest park to stroll alone.

Because it doesn't make sense!

So those people just turned around a few more times, but no one was really sure that he was Ye Chen.

Otherwise, we'd need to take a few group photos.

Ye Chen followed the walking path and climbed all the way to the top of the mountain, where there was a three-story pavilion called the Moon Gazing Pavilion.

There were several other people up there, gazing at the scenery in the distance.

Ye Chen looked around, slightly disappointed; he hadn't found anything along the way.

Finding an opportunity was more difficult than he had imagined.

Opportunity, opportunity—these two words are indeed not just casually used.

If you could find it easily, then it wouldn't be a matter of chance.

People often underestimate the vastness of the world, while overestimating some of their own abilities...

Human beings are still too insignificant in the face of nature.

Even if you know there's an opportunity somewhere, you might not actually find it.

Ye Chen sighed and prepared to go down the mountain in a different direction to search again.

Just then, the phone rang.

Ye Chen picked it up and saw that it was a call from Ah Long.

"Hey, Brother Ye, I've found another rock like this!"

Ah Long's voice on the other end of the phone was filled with excitement.

Ye Chen was completely bewildered. What the heck? Ah Long had run into this?

No, no, shouldn't he be on this main peak?

Well, sometimes, opportunities don't appear according to common sense.

After Ah Long gave him a location, Ye Chen flew there as soon as no one was around.

If we were to walk here, it would take a very long time...

A young couple was whispering sweet nothings on a bench when suddenly the girl glanced up at the sky.

"Hmm~, did you just see a dark shadow whiz by?"

"No, what's wrong? Don't scare me!" The boy looked at Tianshan with some confusion.

"Really not? But I clearly saw it, I'm sure it wasn't an eagle!" the girl said with great certainty.

"Hey, damn it, stop talking nonsense, it's still broad daylight!" The boy took the opportunity to hug the girl.

"Do you think we might have encountered cultivators? Isn't that all over the internet lately?" the girl asked excitedly.

The boy curled his lip: "Cultivating immortality, huh? You're just hallucinating from watching too many of these videos, hehe. But, I've learned a new dual cultivation method, so let's..."

"Get out of here! You're so unruly! Take your hands off me! You can't touch me before we're married!"

......

Ye Chen had A Long release his spiritual power, and Ye Chen used his Qi Observation Technique to pinpoint A Long's location from afar.

Before long, Ye Chen found Ah Long.

With his ability to observe qi, Ye Chen could find it relatively easy to locate a cultivator.

At this moment, Ah Long was holding a stone in his hand. The stone was similar to the one he bought from the street stall, and it had some complicated patterns on it.

Ye Chen took the stone from A Long's hand and began to examine it.

The stone also contains spiritual energy; this energy is unmistakable.

"Where did you find this?" Ye Chen asked, puzzled.

Ah Long scratched his head: "Uh, haha, I just went to encourage plant growth, which loosened the soil, and that's how the stone came to be!"

"Holy crap—"

Ye Chen cursed and threw the stone back to Ah Long. A puddle of water appeared in his palm as he washed his hands that had held the stone.

A little embarrassed, Ah Long stammered, "Brother, I... I've washed it, it doesn't smell bad, you can smell it if you don't believe me!"

Ye Chen rolled his eyes, his face darkening. "Smell it? You've probably never been beaten before..."

"Is it over there?" Ye Chen pointed in a direction to change the subject.

Ah Long nodded repeatedly, trying to flatter and ease the awkwardness: "That's the one to go up there! As expected of Brother Ye, your insight is truly remarkable!"

Ye Chen ignored him and followed the scent directly to the spot where Ah Long had just watered the plants.

"You're fucking inflamed, your breath smells so strong, you need to drink more water!" Ye Chen muttered.

Ah Long chuckled sheepishly, "Uh, hehe, I ate too much good food during the New Year. I'll drink it when I get back. So, Brother Ye, this is definitely a formation stone, right?"

Ye Chen nodded: "That's right. If there really is a formation, it should be nearby. You over there, I'll over here, let's look around!"

Ye Chen looked around, swallowed another X-ray vision pill, and began searching along the hillside.

A moment later, Ah Long suddenly let out a cry of pain.

"Holy crap, how did a hole suddenly appear!"

"Hey, Brother Ye, I... I found another array stone!"

In the distance, Ye Chen heard Ah Long's shout and looked completely puzzled.

No, really? This works? Does he have X-ray vision?

Could this be a destiny destined for Ah Long?

You can buy array stones at street stalls, and you can even get array stones on them by soaking them in water. So, you can even step on an array stone by stepping into a hole.

What, is this your zodiac year?
