There is a special notice issued to all Loucheng residents.
Those Loucheng residents who belonged to various major sects or were casual cultivators before joining Loucheng are among the key groups to be notified.
The content of the notification is very simple. Collect clues related to energy crystals, and it is best to mark the specific location of the mineral deposits.
After confirmation, corresponding rewards will be issued.
At the same time, a group of residents will be dispatched to participate in the collection of energy crystals, and the building city will also be equipped with various required equipment.
After sending the message, I received a response quickly.
Residents of Loucheng who knew the relevant information informed them of their information, and many of the locations of the spiritual mines were accurately marked.
Through investigation, we learned that the number of spiritual minerals in the lower world is quite rare, and most of them are micro-sized veins.
Mineral veins like this have very low spar production and are not suitable for large-scale mining at all.
For spiritual stone veins like this, only a small number of manpower are usually dispatched to continue digging year after year.
There is no way to determine the yield, and harvesting often depends on luck, and sometimes not a few pieces are produced in a year.
Most of the spiritual stones circulating in the practice world are produced from small veins, and their quality is of middle to lower level.
There are three large mineral veins in the lower realm, one of which has been excavated and collapsed into a fresh water lake.
Another one was being excavated, but it was submerged due to a flood caused by the Hai clan. All the workers and monks in the mine were drowned.
Until now, the accumulated water has not been drained.
There is another mine, which was a secret place of a large sect in the past. Only a few people know its true location.
Including the monks in the sect, most of them know nothing about it.
The information collected is not optimistic, proving that the reserves of spirit stones in the lower realm may not be very large, and may not be able to meet the requirements at all.
But even so, Tang Zhen will still give it a try. He doesn't want to harvest too many crystals, just get through the current energy crisis.
During the process of collecting information, one after another mining teams also set out from Loucheng and went straight to the location where the spirit stone veins might exist.
After controlling the lower realm, there is no place that Loucheng residents cannot go to, which also reduces the difficulty of action.
After arriving at the destination, mining operations begin immediately.
Special matters are handled specially, and efficiency is the priority in everything. The original mining model will definitely not work.
It was slow and inefficient, and Tang Zhen simply couldn't afford to wait.
The residents of Loucheng locked their position, and then activated the earth-shattering talisman, which turned into a golden light and shot into the ground.
The value of the earth-shattering talisman is extremely high, and you can never buy it if you have money. However, there are many reserves in the building city, but there is not a single spiritual stone reserve.
If he could exchange magic symbols for spiritual stones, Tang Zhen would definitely do it without hesitation, but it was a pity that he could not find such a transaction channel.
Nowadays, the earth-shattering talisman, which can be used as a trump card weapon in any sect, can only be reduced to a mining tool in Loucheng.
Following a muffled sound, the earth shook, and huge cracks appeared on the surface.
Such a huge movement would have definitely caused disaster in the past, but now there is no problem.
Just because after a flood, there were not many residents left, and most of them gathered on the fertile soil.
That kind of place is more suitable for sowing, and disasters rarely occur, making it very suitable for survivors to live and reproduce.
Other than that, other places have become wilderness, with no trace of human beings at all.
After the earth cracked, the residents of Loucheng began to take action, flying into the cracks with equipment for detecting spiritual stones.
This device for detecting spiritual stones can detect energy items within a radius of several hundred meters and can be set up with various shielding options.
If you explore it on the ground, it will definitely have no effect, because the condensed spiritual stones are buried very deep.
As the ground opens up, it becomes very easy to carry out exploration with a hand-held device.
Sure enough, it didn't take long before the device kept making sounds and pointed out the specific location.
The cultivator responsible for digging holds something like a drill pipe in his hand, and starts directly after locking the position.
The drill rod quickly penetrated the rocky soil, shattered the stones blocking the road, and then recovered the spiritual stones buried in the ground.
Operate in this way and continue to explore.
Wait until the surface spiritual stones are collected, and then continue to use the earth-shattering talisman to cut according to the specific direction of the veins.
However, in a short period of time, the land above the mine veins became crisscrossed with ravines, and the scene looked terrible.
After completing the collection at one place, immediately go to the next place, and the same operation is similar.
When encountering large mineral veins, the cutting and bombing will become more severe, creating terrifying giant craters one after another.
A few years later, someone discovered the cause of these giant pits, and their hearts were filled with unspeakable shock.
They claimed that gods existed and used their supreme power to create these spectacular ruins, but they were scorned by the people of the time.
The gods and monsters are just legends and cannot exist at all.
At this moment, the residents of Loucheng naturally don't care about what will happen in the future, they are just trying their best to complete the task.
The large mine vein that was flooded by water was divided by five earth-shattering talismans, and at the same time, the groundwater was drained by powerful means.
When we entered the collecting stage, we found that there were bright crystal stones everywhere, which looked like stars in the sky.
This situation is related to the characteristics of energy crystals. They are like magnets and will automatically move towards the energy source.
After using the Earth Splitting Talisman, it will have the effect of gathering crystals, thereby reducing the difficulty of obtaining crystals.
During the process of collecting crystals, we did see some collapsed mines and the bones of drowned miners and monks.
When the flood occurred, they were not notified at all. When they realized something was wrong, they had no chance to escape.
It is true that the Sea Clan is unethical and controls the floods to be too fierce and fast, swallowing up the land in a very short time.
If it weren't for Lou Cheng's warning, all the creatures in the lower world would have died.
These bones were collected and buried in one location, followed by destructive mining.
The land with a radius of hundreds of kilometers and a depth of five to six kilometers has been almost completely turned over.
Tons of crystals were collected and sent to Loucheng via transport airships.
Under normal circumstances, it would take hundreds or thousands of years to mine the spiritual minerals, but the residents of Loucheng completed the mining in only five days.
The harvest in five days was huge, far beyond expectations.
For that hidden mineral vein, Loucheng residents paid more attention to it, hoping to have the same spiritual stone reserves.
The problem is that the mineral vein is extremely hidden. No one who knew about it at the time has survived, and no one knows its true location.
The residents of Loucheng collected information, continued to deduce and exclude, and finally locked in several locations.
Several groups acted at the same time, using earth-shattering talismans to conduct exploration, and finally discovered a hidden mineral vein in a barren mountain.
It is said that most of the places where spiritual veins are located have lush vegetation and are usually places with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
This spiritual vein is different. It is completely an abandoned valley, and in some places there is not even a blade of grass growing.
This situation is related to the special geographical environment.
Underneath the deserted valley is a place where rare spiritual veins gather, but the surface is covered with thick bad soil.
A bad soil cannot grow any grass and cannot support any living beings. If you stay there for a long time, you will get sick.
No one could have imagined that there would be a spiritual mine hidden under the bad soil, with mines dug like spider webs.
After locking the exact location, he continued to use the earth-shattering talisman to mine, but the result was a violent explosion.
The talisman struck a hidden mineral vein, causing an explosion, and countless crystals erupted from the ground.
This scene alone is enough to conclude that the crystal stone reserves are extremely large, and may even exceed the total of previous harvests.
For Loucheng residents, this is indeed a surprise.
They did not expect that the surprise would be far more than that. At the same time as the explosion occurred, Tang Zhen, who was in the building city, also showed a hint of surprise.
After searching the entire lower realm, there was no trace of the earth spirit bead, and just now it showed a trace of fluctuation.
