Chapter 218: Yellow Earth Crystal Mine

After doing all this, Lin Zhangqing comforted them through the contract, telling Jin Yi and Jin Er to stay here with peace of mind, and that this place would be the meeting point for both sides in the future.

Lin Zhangqing would bring them demonic beast meat and some spirit fruits every once in a while, and drop by to see their harvest.

As for this Yellow Earth Crystal Mine, Lin Zhangqing was not an Earth Master and didn't know how to measure the scale of an ore vein.

However, seeing the long mine tunnel that Jin Yi and Jin Er had dug, it certainly couldn't be a miniature ore vein, so Lin Zhangqing estimated it was at least a small ore vein.

It was just a pity that this was only a first-grade mid-grade Yellow Earth Crystal Mine; the Purple Crystal Scorpions were already at the first-stage late-grade now, so mid-grade Yellow Earth Crystal was a bit lacking for them.

However, considering the future, if the Purple Crystal Scorpions bred offspring, these Yellow Earth Crystal mines might still be used, so he decided to store a portion.

If they were really useless then, he would just pour them directly into the deep pit in the inner space for Lin Zhangliu to absorb and digest; anyway, it definitely wouldn't be wasted.

So he instructed Jin Yi and Jin Er to dig more when they had time; he would come to collect them after a while and bring them something by the way.

Actually, when he first entered here, it had already given Lin Zhangqing some inspiration.

Now with Jin Yi, Jin Er, and their family, the Lin family could completely find one or two suitable places within the Qingyun Mountain Range area that the family was responsible for.

Let the Earth-Armored Rhinoceroses dig out one or two such spaces; as long as they were made a bit larger and covered with suitable formations, they could all be used as secret grounds.

And if a spirit vein could be found, that would be even more perfect; he could even transfer a portion of the clansmen into the secret ground with the spirit vein.

Of course, this was just an idea of Lin Zhangqing's for now; specifically, he still had to wait until he returned to the clan and discussed it with his grandfather or the Clan Leader before it could be implemented.

Subsequently, Lin Zhangqing inspected the long mine tunnel dug by the Earth-Armored Rhinoceros family roughly; to be able to dig it like this, the project was truly not small.

It was estimated that their family had already lived here for a long time, and they probably hadn't gone out to hunt much, which was why the two big guys wolfed down the meat like that.

Returning to Jin Yi and Jin Er's side, Lin Zhangqing specifically left some demonic beast meat; this could be fed to the three little Earth-Armored Rhinoceroses after they woke up, as they would definitely need it after advancing.

Lin Zhangqing had only contracted the two big ones for now; the three little ones hadn't been contracted yet, but he wasn't worried about this.

There was no need to be so urgent; he would talk about the little ones after a while; anyway, they definitely couldn't run away.

And he had contracted twice today, losing two drops of essence blood; he should wait until his body recovered before contracting them! Subsequently, he recalled the thirty-six Purple Crystal Scorpions that had led the charge just now back to the spirit beast bracelet, and then spoke to Jin Yi and Jin Er.

Lin Zhangqing followed the thin tunnel he had come in through just now, successfully went out, and returned to the ground of the small valley.

Looking at the small entrance on the ground leading to the Yellow Earth Crystal Mine, Lin Zhangqing considered it and specifically found a large rock to block the hole, and also made a pile of rubble around it for cover.

After contacting Chu Er, Lin Zhangqing continued on his way; he had been busy with this matter since early morning, and it had been most of the day by now.

Continuing to walk west, he could fly once he left the Qingyun Mountain Range; he had to cover as much ground as possible today, otherwise another day would be wasted.

On Chu Yi's side, after communicating, he knew there was no danger now, so Lin Zhangqing was relieved; they would be able to leave the outer perimeter of the Qingyun Mountain Range in about a day and a half.

They would be a bit earlier than Lin Zhangqing; they could just go to the meeting point he specified then.

Two days passed very quickly; with Chu Er's help, Lin Zhangqing finally left the outer mountain range without any danger.

Zhao Liyu and the others were about half a day earlier than him and were almost at the place now; Lin Zhangqing also began to fly his sword toward the direction of Tongshan Village.

Finally, when the sky was completely dark, he arrived at the meeting point and successfully found Zhao Liyu and Xu Meiniang.

Seeing Lin Zhangqing, the two hurriedly saluted: "Greetings, Master. We have not failed your trust and have already captured those few Three-Colored Deer."

Seeing them, Lin Zhangqing was also completely relieved; after all, not to mention anything else, Lu Youqiang and Lu Xiaoya were still in their spirit beast bags! He nodded and said: "You have worked hard this time; you have done very well. Now, first give me your storage bags and spirit beast bags; I will send you back to the inner space to rest. We will talk about anything else later."

Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu nodded, and subsequently handed over the seven storage bags and three spirit beast bags on their bodies to Lin Zhangqing, and they themselves were also taken into the spirit beast bracelet by Lin Zhangqing.

Seeing so many storage bags in his hand, Lin Zhangqing knew their experience this time shouldn't be simple, but he would ask about that when he had time.

Next was Chu Yi; leaving Lin Zhangqing to go on a mission to cooperate with Zhao Liyu and the others, she definitely also needed a reward.

However, for now, Chu Yi and Chu Er were each fed a Spirit Nurturing Pill by Lin Zhangqing before being taken into the spirit beast bracelet.

He was now not far outside Tongshan Village and couldn't help but want to go see Chen Zi Ya; after all, they hadn't seen each other for more than a month.

Identifying the direction, he flew toward Chen Zi Ya's house; soon he arrived at the Chen family's gate. He scanned with his divine sense; the Chen family had all returned, including Chen Zi Ya's sister, Chen Zilan, and her two children, who were also here.

Lin Zhangqing began to call the door; soon, Chen Zi Ya's eldest brother, Chen Zichang, came to open the door.

As soon as they met, Lin Zhangqing saluted: "Senior Brother, I am back!"

Seeing that it was Lin Zhangqing at the door, Chen Zichang couldn't help but be overjoyed and shouted loudly: "Younger Brother is back, come in quickly."

Then he pulled Lin Zhangqing toward the living room; the whole Chen family had heard Chen Zichang's shout just now.

Therefore, not long after, the Chen family had basically all come, and the living room suddenly became lively; the last to come were actually the Chen Zi Ya sisters.

After saluting everyone, Chen Zi Ya's father began to ask about his experience this time; Lin Zhangqing picked some things he could talk about, added various things he saw along the way, polished and processed them, and told them as stories.

Telling stories was something that men, women, old, and young, adults and children all liked equally; especially stories about cultivators were even more fascinating.

So later on, it was mainly Lin Zhangqing talking; this talk lasted for nearly two hours, and it was basically almost midnight, so everyone reluctantly went back to rest.

Lin Zhangqing missed Chen Zi Ya very much, but the occasion was not right, so the two couldn't say a few words; instead, it was her sister Chen Zilan who asked the most questions.

When the crowd dispersed, Chen Zi Ya mischievously winked at him; Lin Zhangqing smiled knowingly, knowing it meant they had an appointment to meet tomorrow morning.

Lin Zhangqing had lived here for quite a long time, so he didn't need to be polite at all and returned to the courtyard he originally lived in, familiar with the road.

Seeing that everything in the courtyard had been cleaned up spotlessly, he understood that it must be the result of Chen Zi Ya often coming over to clean, and felt warm in his heart.

Returning here, he felt much more at ease; this adventure mission was considered perfectly ended here.

If there were no accidents, the next time he went out should be returning to the Qingyun Sect with Chen Zi Ya.

Following the old rules, he used his divine sense to carefully check the courtyard twice, and after confirming there was no problem, he set up the Small Five Elements Mystery Array and the Spirit Gathering Array.

Returning to the room and activating the formation, Lin Zhangqing entered the inner space.

Just after entering, he really wasn't used to it being so cold and clear, so he raised his hand and released Zhao Liyu and Xu Meiniang from the spirit beast bracelet.

He also returned the storage bags and spirit beast bags to them, let them release Lu Youqiang and Lu Xiaoya first, and Lin Zhangqing himself also released Lu Xiaoling.

This time the inner space finally returned to its usual liveliness; Lu Youqiang and his family began to "Yo-yo!" around Lin Zhangqing again, especially Lu Youqiang, who actually claimed credit to Lin Zhangqing through the contract.
