Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

```

Lin Tianming and another carefully searched, walking more than ten miles away.

Unintentionally, they arrived at a Stone Forest, spanning about a thousand acres, surrounded by valley and thick fog.

Lin Tianming suddenly stopped in his tracks, opened his Eye of Five Colors, and observed the area.

"Huh, there's something strange here!"

The earth attribute Spiritual Energy in the entire Stone Forest was particularly intense, the ratio was significantly higher than other places.

"Brother, have you noticed anything special about this place?"

Lin Tianfeng had already checked several times, and apart from being very concealed and greatly limited Divine Sense, there was nothing else strange.

"Sixth brother, did you see anything different?"

"Um, the earth attribute Spiritual Energy here is very concentrated, with Stone Forest spread all over, and considering the Silver Earth Scorpions are earth attribute Demonic Beasts, I reckon, there's a high chance this is their den!"

After being reminded by Lin Tianming, Lin Tianfeng hurriedly projected his Divine Sense and carefully sensed the differences in the Spiritual Energy.

After some perception, Lin Tianfeng said with a smile:

"Indeed, if one doesn't carefully explore, they really won't find it!"

Lin Tianming immediately transmitted the news to the other clan members, and the two watched the movements within the Stone Forest with vigilance.

Half a quarter of an hour passed, and upon receiving the transmission, Lin Shiji and a group of clan members gathered behind Lin Tianming.

Lin Shiji asked calmly, "Tianming, have you found the den of the Silver Earth Scorpions?"

"Elder Wu, it is almost certain it's this place, let me try and then we'll know!"

Taking out an Earth Evil Sword, Lin Tianming swung it three times, sending three waves of Sword Qi straight into the Stone Forest.

"Pfft pfft pfft..."

The ground shook a few times, and several large rocks were shattered by the Sword Qi, scattering in all directions.

Sounds of crawling came from the Stone Forest, quite noisy, judging from the numbers, there should be quite a few Demonic Beasts.

"Ssss ssss ssss..."

Startled, one Silver Earth Scorpion after another scuttled up from the ground, at least thirty of them, scurrying to escape.

Having confirmed that this place was the Silver Earth Scorpion's territory, Lin Shiji began to give orders.

"Hmph, they are merely Silver Earth Scorpions in the First Order Initial Phase, there aren't many in the Medium Stage, everyone quickly surround and kill them, don't let them escape!"

Everyone drew their weapons and quickly encircled the Stone Forest, there were no Silver Earth Scorpions in the First Order Late Stage, these in the Initial Phase would eventually be killed.

Lin Tianming consecutively unleashed several slashes, the Silver Earth Scorpions in the First Order Initial Phase simply couldn't withstand, and were killed one after another, those in the First Order Medium Stage couldn't last much longer, it just took a bit more effort.

In just half a quarter of an hour, all the juvenile Silver Earth Scorpions were killed.

Quickly clearing the battlefield, everyone gathered together again.

"The entire Silver Earth Scorpion group has been killed, there shouldn't be any dangers inside, still, be cautious, in pairs of two, go in and scour, hopefully we can find some useful items."

Hearing Lin Shiji's instructions, everyone couldn't wait and rushed into the Stone Forest.

Lin Tianming and Lin Tianfeng paired up and quickly moved through the Stone Forest, carefully searching.

"Earth Spirit Ganoderma"

Lin Tianfeng showed a flash of delight, quickly collecting several Earth Spirit Ganoderma.

Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone had scoured the whole Stone Forest and finally gathered together.

"I found three Earth Spirit Ganoderma!"

"I found two Earth Spirit Ganoderma!"

…...

Lin Tianfeng also began to report: "I found five Earth Spirit Ganoderma!"

```

Lin Tianming searched many areas as well, but he found nothing at all.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lin Shiji showed a hint of disappointment. With such a large Silver Earth Scorpion group and such an extensive cave system, even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator entering it and facing the combined attack of the entire Silver Earth Scorpion group wouldn't come out with much of a benefit.

After over ten people exerted so much effort, they had only found a little over a dozen Earth Spirit Ganoderma, worth just over two hundred Spirit Stones—not considered a significant gain at all.

With a hint of disappointment in his expression, Lin Shiji said,

"Let's just leave."

Just as Lin Shiji turned around, Lin Tianming spoke up.

"Wait!"

Lin Shiji turned back, looking at Lin Tianming with a puzzled face.

"Elder Wu, the proportion of earth attribute Spiritual Energy here is extremely high, which is very strange. Allow me to investigate a bit more; there might be some unexpected discoveries!"

Having said that, Lin Tianming went straight to the depths of the Stone Forest to a spot where the earth attribute Spiritual Energy was the densest. He took out the Earth Evil Sword and began to wave it, stroke after stroke.

A quarter of an hour later, a hole a few dozen feet wide appeared in the center of the Stone Forest, more than ten feet deep.

The deeper they dug, the denser the earth attribute Spiritual Energy became. The soil gradually turned into rocks, making it increasingly difficult to excavate.

Everyone jumped in and began to help with the digging.

An hour passed, and they had dug nearly four hundred feet deep. The originally loose soil had transformed into rock, significantly harder, and every foot they dug required a great deal of effort. Two of the clan uncles were already thinking of giving up; one of them tried to persuade the others,

"Tianming, stop digging, we've already wasted several hours. It's unlikely we'll find anything else!"

"Indeed, let's call it quits!"

Another uncle chimed in. Lin Tianfeng and Lin Tianhong wanted to speak up for Lin Tianming but, considering their lower status and strength, they ended up not saying anything. They could only sigh in resignation and continued to dig alongside Lin Tianming.

Lin Tianming ignored their advice and kept digging tirelessly as he neared a depth of five hundred feet. The soil that was originally black had turned to a lighter shade of gray, and with every foot dug, it became increasingly difficult.

Lin Tianming grew even more confident that there must be some earth attribute Spiritual Objects in this place, and as a result, he worked even harder.

Another hour passed, and at that point, they had dug beyond five hundred feet deep.

Lin Tianming struck fiercely with his sword, breaking open a half-a-foot wide hole in the gray rock wall. A strong surge of earth attribute Spiritual Energy rushed at them through the opening.

Looking inside through the gap, a fist-sized rock of grayish-white stood out against the darker stones, catching the eye.

Lin Tianming was overjoyed, exclaiming,

"There's a discovery here!"

All the clan members felt the intense and rich change in the Spiritual Energy and, hearing Lin Tianming's shout, gathered around.

Lin Tianming carefully used the Earth Evil Sword to extract the grayish-white rock, examining it closely.

"It's an Earth Mysterious Crystal!"

Lin Tianming was certain. Although he wasn't an Artifact Refiner, he had read many books on Spirit Materials and was familiar with some common ones.

The Earth Mysterious Crystal was a Second Order Inferior Spirit Ore of great value, useful in the crafting of Defensive Spiritual Tools. Adding just a small amount could greatly enhance the Defensive Spiritual Tools' defensive power and ductility, making it a high-quality material for Artifact Refining.

The amount Lin Tianming held in his hands could be used three times more than enough for creating a First Order Superior Grade Spiritual Artifact and was worth hundreds of Spirit Stones.

Now, all the clan members were extremely excited. The two uncles who had wanted to give up earlier shamelessly praised Lin Tianming for his insight.

Lin Tianming didn't pay them any heed and handed the Earth Mysterious Crystal to Lin Shiji for confirmation.

Taking the Earth Mysterious Crystal, Lin Shiji weighed it thoughtfully several times and said with certainty,

"This is undoubtedly an Earth Mysterious Crystal. This place must be a small Spirit Vein. The only question is the amount of reserves. You all keep digging and explore how much there is. I'll go out right away and set up a concealed Formation to hide this place."

"Yes!"

The crowd responded in unison, digging vigorously.

Lin Shiji turned around and flew out of the cave, stopping outside the Stone Forest.

He took out an Array Plate and four Array Flags from his storage bag, quickly setting up a Formation that enveloped the entire Stone Forest. Then he put up several Illusion Techniques to fully conceal the Stone Forest.
