Feng Jun was taken aback, but what he was thinking about wasn’t the Earth Vein, it was... the Spirit Stone Mine!
If it wasn’t for Sofia wanting to build a Daoist Temple in Australia, and his spur-of-the-mont decision to visit a volcano, he probably wouldn’t have discovered that Spirit Stone Mine, and naturally wouldn’t have mined it afterward.
So... since there’s a first Spirit Stone Mine abroad, why can’t there be a second one?
Feng Jun felt not the slightest bit of guilt about taking sothing foreign ho; if morality was effective, what need would there be for armies?
Let’s first take a look at how many things from Huaxia are in the museums of Neon, Britain, and Mai Nation, and as for Spirit Stones... do they co with labels?
However, just after expressing his stance, it would be too inconsistent to backtrack imdiately now, wouldn’t it?
So he hesitated for a mont, then slowly nodded and said, "Indeed, the Earth Vein shouldn’t be wasted. If they don’t need it, they can’t bla us for using it. However... when it cos to establishing such a Daoist Temple, you must be cautious in selecting the Temple Master."
"Of course, I understand this, a beautiful Temple Master, right?" Zhang Dongyuan smiled and nodded. "That’s for sure. When selecting the Temple Master, Mountain Master Feng must review them."
"There’s no need for to review. Your self-built temple is your business," Feng Jun really hadn’t thought so much about it, not wanting the other party to think he wanted to control all the power of the Overseas Daoist Temple, but he did have a suggestion, "Reliability is key."
"Reliable, yes, definitely," Zhang Dongyuan thought to himself, certainly, it must be soone willing to contribute to Qingcheng, not those with big mouths who like to talk nonsense——however, given Feng Jun’s conditions, introducing a couple of beautiful Daoist nuns isn’t really difficult.
The Daoist Sects value Yin and Yang harmony, cultivating with a High-Rank Practitioner generally isn’t a bad thing, as long as the other party isn’t involved in exploitative practices, Lower-Level Cultivators usually stand to gain.
Would Feng Jun be the kind of person to exploit others? Both Zhang Dongyuan and Dong Zenghong didn’t believe so. First, Feng Jun’s status in the Daoist Sects made it improper for him to do such things, and second, the female cultivators of Luohua were all quite skilled, with Cai Xin already being at the Mid-stage Qi Refining.
In fact, if there were any exploitation happening, perhaps Feng Jun would be the one being exploited by them, wouldn’t he?
Currently, the first person in the Huaxia Daoist Sect is not involved in exploitation, is young, handso, and a billionaire——who would refuse such a dual cultivation partner?
Dong Zenghong spoke up, "Since Mountain Master Feng has approved, should we get going then?"
Feng Jun felt a little surprised, "You an leave... now?"
I haven’t even had ti to brush my teeth, is there really such a rush?
"If we don’t go now, it will be New Year’s," Dong Zenghong looked at her helplessly, "It’s already hard to get flight tickets."
Missing the chance to go ho for New Year’s again? A trace of regret flashed through Feng Jun’s heart, but really, the regret was just fleeting. In the cultivation world, ti is of no essence, and yet he still considered celebrating the New Year...
However, this might be the last bit of mortal world aura he has left, so he decided to hold onto it, "Where exactly are the places you’ve chosen?"
"Primarily West Asia and Europa, with a small part in Africa... you’re already quite familiar with Mai Nation," Zhang Dongyuan answered seriously, "The main thing is to get a Schengen visa, so countries we can enter quietly."
"That big of an area?" Feng Jun raised his eyebrows in surprise, then shook his head, "Never mind, I don’t feel like getting a visa, just specify a location, and I’ll et you guys there."
Yan Siwei’s eyes lit up, "Oh? I’ve heard Mountain Master Feng has the technique to travel through the heavens and the earth, so I’ll skip the flight and go with you... I want to experience Immortal Family thods."
Zhang Dongyuan gave him a cold look, "Don’t get too full of yourself, having won second place at the Dragon Gate Tournant, you’re a bit puffed up... if we don’t enter properly and sothing happens, Mountain Master Feng can easily escape, but can you?"
Feng Jun could sense that what Zhang Dongyuan said seed to be a criticism of his fellow sect mber, but at the sa ti, wasn’t it also a test? If Feng Jun was the type who valued face, he might have made a bold promise by now——claiming he couldn’t even take one person along?
So he just smiled, "Everyone just take the plane, do a favor and understand that currently, I can’t leave the country at all."
"Ha," both Dong Zenghong and Zhang Dongyuan laughed, "No need for you to say, we could already guess that you definitely can’t go abroad."
Their information was already quite astute, and Feng Jun was now vaguely in the position of "candidate leader of the sect," not to ntion how many people abroad had their eyes on him now. Just his status alone ant he couldn’t casually travel abroad.
But they really hadn’t planned on hitching a ride on Feng Jun’s Flying Boat either. In their view, if they went themselves and arranged a eting location——as for how he got there, they didn’t care.
This was the cautious calculation. In case sothing did happen, Feng Jun could easily escape, but if they couldn’t escape, the stigma of illegal entry would indeed be quite shaful.
Thus, everyone agreed to et in a country at the foot of the Alps, and as for further actions... they’d be discussed after eting up.
Once the three left, Feng Jun thought about it for a mont, and decided not to keep waiting, boarding the Flying Boat that very night.
Now he had too many Flying Boats, because he had killed many High-Rank Practitioners, and his number of Flying Boats didn’t fall short compared to a Golden Core Family—essentially, it was even more.
He considered his actions in the Mobile Phone Plane to be rather kind, but in fact, they weren’t. His propensity for killing ranked high in the entire Kunhao Plane.
He was accustod to keeping a low profile, which attracted so small bullying; he didn’t like to be ostentatious, so very few people knew he couldn’t be provoked, and more critically, the things he mastered greatly tempted others.
The crucial point was that he felt he was keeping a low profile, and he really did, but he believed he had a Golden Finger, so deep down, he wasn’t afraid. When encountering problems, he dared to fight fiercely.
Especially during his most rewarding venture—well, actually it wasn’t the most rewarding, but killing the Redwood Spirit wasn’t sothing to brag about, so when he killed Master Jiao, it yielded quite a bit.
At that ti, it was a whole hunting team capable of traversing the Endless Sea, directly wiped out by him, and anyone who dared to make a living in the Endless Sea had a Flying Boat, except for so Minor Qi Cultivators.
Indeed, in other areas where he looted and robbed, Feng Jun had seized many Flying Boats. Ultimately, it was—though I keep a low profile, I have them.
So that night, he reached the gathering point, but upon arrival, he felt a bit uneasy, sensing that sothing might happen.
After investigating the surroundings, he discovered that the earth veins here were really strong...
How strong? Even the earth veins of the Kunlun Mountain Protection Array were no more than this.
Then he had ti to ponder many interesting things. What was the aning behind the formation of the nearby earth veins?
With so leisure ti, he simply flew into the mountainous area to explore the earth veins.
The more he flew, the more astonished he beca. Although particularly good earth veins were rare, an exceptional one would erge from ti to ti, almost comparable to Kunlun’s. After flying a day and a night, he had not even surveyed one-fifth, yet he was compelled to return.
The Alps were just too vast to be surveyed all at once.
Dong Zenghong and Zhang Dongyuan had already arrived, and this ti neither of them wore a Daoist Robe, opting for regular clothing. Zhang Dongyuan had long hair which was originally tied up, giving an immortal-like appearance, but was now let down, resembling sowhat a middle-aged artist.
After the three t, Dong Zenghong drove a rented off-road vehicle, taking the two to a mountain ridge.
This was part of the Alps’ foothills. The mountain wasn’t high, about seven to eight hundred ters, with a not-so-small river nearby—the "Dragon Absorbing Water" location, an excellent spot in terms of geomancy. Moreover, Dong Zenghong believed there was a faint dragon energy here.
Feng Jun observed the earth veins, which weren’t better than what he had seen before. However, he also felt that enhancing the earth veins here would be extrely effective, though he couldn’t deduce to what extent.
It’s evident that the Ghost Valley Sect had indeed a unique ability in Divination.
Building a Daoist Temple here had the necessary terrain conditions, but the related land policies and religious policies were sowhat insufficient, especially considering the complex relationship between this country and Huaxia. Tourists from Huaxia were not nurous.
Thus, Feng Jun’s stance was "backup". If Zhang Dongyuan insisted, he wouldn’t mind.
Zhang Dongyuan naturally wasn’t that hasty, stating that if the feeling here was good, he would send soone to follow up on the negotiations.
The next day, the three drove into the Teutonic Country, inspecting another location. The geomancy was still good, but the Teutonic perception of Huaxia was quite polarized, and the cost of living was high. Feng Jun thought it should be a "backup of the backup".
However, this was still his personal feeling, whereas Zhang Dongyuan felt that the Teutonic Country was, after all, a strong Western nation, and a Daoist Temple here would be great publicity for Qingcheng.
In the following two weeks, the three inspected a total of eleven places, finding none particularly satisfactory.
Strictly speaking, Feng Jun wasn’t very satisfied with Sofia’s site selection in Australia either.
But short-term, she couldn’t find a better place, and she personally needed cultivation. Moreover, the two churches in the Amstan town greatly benefited Sofia’s cultivation, which led to that decision.
The overseas mission of building a Qingcheng branch didn’t have any demands for Incense Fire Ascension, so it was hard to decide based solely on the earth veins.
Zhang Dongyuan’s inclination was more towards Gaul and the Teutonic Country, whereas Dong Zenghong preferred so land near the Red Sea.
In any case, this matter wasn’t sothing to be rushed, so the three began to return leisurely.
Upon returning to the Teutonic Country, Zhang Dongyuan suggested, "Shall we go to Poland? There’s a place there reputed to have good geomancy, and I happen to know a believer who is doing well there."
