Chapter 199: A New Direction

~7 min read 1,327 words

Inside the Yinjian military camp, the Yin-Walker Lu Daoguang was gesturing at a map that looked quite old with a Corpse-Raising Craftsman.

"There are absolutely no mineral resources in this Filthy Blood Swamp. Our ancestors have already been there. Besides pools of blood that are deep and bottomless, that ghost place is nothing but Guiyi and mud!"

Hearing others talk about this place, Lu Daoguang spoke with extreme confidence. This kind of place had been heavily recorded in the clan's ancient books.

Their Yin-Walker ancestors had suffered a great loss in this ghost place, so they couldn't go and muddy the waters now.

"What about here? I heard that this place was the sect grounds of a large sect in the ancient times. I wonder if there are still good things there?"

Jiang Henian was somewhat unconvinced and continued to point to another area. He was now urgently hoping to achieve some results, preferably finding the mineral resources that the Great One needed.

For the past two days, because they hadn't been received by Lin Feng, both the Corpse-Raising Craftsman and the Yin-Walker were a bit anxious.

"That's not a good place either. There is a forbidden zone there, and anyone who entered it without authorization never came out."

Lu Daoguang shook his head again. He had always valued his life and belonged to the type who would never take risks easily if he could avoid them.

"This won't work, that won't work. Then what do you say we should do?"

"That Great One gave us so much time, but now we haven't found anything at all!"

Lu Daoguang's repeated rejections made the other Corpse-Raising Craftsmen somewhat dissatisfied, and they couldn't help but complain directly to him.

"Shut up! Is this something you should say?"

However, at this time, the Jiang family's Third Aunt-in-law slowly opened her eyes and scolded her descendants directly.

"But Third Aunt-in-law, dragging it out like this is not a way either!"

"That's right, shouldn't we go and see if it works or not?"

"I think it's better for us to act separately!"

"..."

Scolded by their Third Aunt-in-law, the voices of the others became a bit smaller, but they still kept complaining.

"Lu family kid, if you have any good ideas, feel free to say them. If you don't want to be with us, that's fine too. At worst, I'll take people to find that mineral vein alone!"

At this time, the Jiang family's Third Aunt-in-law looked at Lu Daoguang and said to him.

"Oh my, Old Madam Jiang, this is really not me talking nonsense. You know the situation in the Yinjian. In this ghost place, if you are not careful, you will lose your life!"

"If we don't think it through and run around blindly, we will definitely be finished. Some places, even with the army arranged by the Great One, might not be safe!"

"In my opinion, the best places for us to go now are actually three: here, here, and over there!"

While speaking, Lu Daoguang pointed to three inconspicuous locations on this old map.

"What's the story with these three locations?"

The Jiang family's Third Aunt-in-law looked at the locations he pointed out and couldn't help but frown. She didn't have relevant information about these places in her mind.

"Hehe, the story behind these places is quite big."

"But the simplest reason is that these places were where the Underworld Pottery Craftsmen often went!"

"Although I don't know when these people's heritage was cut off, I think the places they went to couldn't be that simple."

"In the past, my Yin-Walker family didn't dare to approach these places, but now we have the support of the army in the hands of that Great One, plus the corpse-refining to scout the way in your hands. Now, even if it's a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, we can break into it!"

A strange expression appeared on Lu Daoguang's face. It was not easy to accurately find mineral veins in the Yinjian, but sometimes, as long as you find the right people, things will become much simpler.

"Whoa, it's actually those guys who play with mud!"

"Maybe these places really have something going for them!"

"We can try. At worst, it's just a wasted trip."

"..."

Soon, they made a decision. However, at this moment, the Gui gate at the back of the military camp was slowly opened.

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to it. The Gui gate had only been opened for a short while in the past two days before closing. I wonder what will happen today?

"Third Aunt-in-law, should we go and see?"

"Let's go. Maybe that Great One wants to see us today!"

"Alright!"

Outside the Gui gate, after Lin Feng finished burying the corpses for the day, he opened the Gui gate. He also wanted to ask those Yin-Walkers and Corpse-Raising Craftsmen about the situation.

As the heavy-armored paper soldiers moved all the things harvested today from the Yinjian to the graveyard, the Yin-Walkers and Corpse-Raising Craftsmen in the military camp also arrived at the camp where Lin Feng was.

"Subordinate Lu Daoguang pays respects to the Great One!"

"Subordinate Jiang Henian pays respects to the Great One!"

"Subordinate Lu Shiquan pays respects to the Great One!"

"..."

Now, the total number of these Yin-Walkers and Corpse-Raising Craftsmen was nearly twenty, which was not a small number.

"All rise!"

"Yes!"

"Many thanks to the Great One!"

Lin Feng, whose body was shrouded in armor, had no interest in these kowtows. The reason he did this was just to maintain his mystery.

"Have you had any harvest recently?"

Lin Feng's gaze looked at Lu Daoguang and swept over the others before asking them.

For the past two days, Lin Feng had been busy with other things and had somewhat neglected the development of the Yinjian.

"Reporting to the Great One, recently we have explored within a radius of three hundred miles of the military camp, but the harvest has been meager. In my subordinate's opinion, unless we can dig deep underground, just looking at the terrain and veins will probably yield little harvest!"

"In addition, we found the locations where the Underworld Pottery Craftsmen often operated in the past, so we are preparing to go and see. Maybe we can get some harvest there."

Lu Daoguang felt restless under Lin Feng's gaze, but in the end, he bit the bullet and stood out to answer him.

"Underworld Pottery Craftsmen?"

Hearing this name, Lin Feng immediately thought of the Underworld Pottery Bowl he used to raise Gui. However, according to what he knew, this heritage of the Heavenly Craftsmen had been cut off, and even the Underworld Pottery Bowls were few and far between in the Rengian.

"Yes, Great One, it is the heritage ranked two hundred and thirty-first among the Heavenly Craftsmen."

"Recently, when I was searching for Yinjian products, I found a record left by an ancestor. Back then, he had contact with the craftsmen of this heritage, so he left three relevant locations."

"So I think if we can find these places, there will probably be different discoveries!"

Lu Daoguang hurriedly explained to Lin Feng. To be honest, this information was indeed something he had found through the clan's ancient books in the past two days.

"Hmm, then go and find them!"

"If you can find the relevant heritage, I will surely reward you heavily!"

Hearing him say this, Lin Feng nodded and made the decision on the spot. To be honest, he was still quite looking forward to this heritage.

"Many thanks to the Great One!"

Hearing Lin Feng say this, Lu Daoguang was instantly overjoyed, so he bowed to Lin Feng on the spot.

"Great One, rest assured, we will definitely find this heritage for you!"

Others also followed suit. Although they didn't know why Lin Feng valued a low-ranking heritage, this was their chance to perform! ===== CHAPTER 200 =====
