“Do you still remember what happened a long time ago?”
On top of a mountain peak, the Qilin was standing beside Lin Mo. Suddenly thinking of something, she had asked Lin Mo this question.
“What?” Lin Mo was stunned.
After coming to the Demon State, he had been thinking about how to establish a force, how to choose a location, and how to allocate positions.
After thinking about it, he felt that it was very unrealistic.
Without the help of the Rainbow-Winged Bird, it would be very difficult for him to hold an auction. If the treasures auctioned were too precious, it would be very easy for them to be snatched away.
After all, this was not the ancient battlefield where he alone was enough to intimidate most people.
Outside, there was a large group of Quasi-Saints. There were even Saints.
Now, the treasures he wanted to auction off were all treasures above Level 5 Heaven Class.
Sometimes, he would even come to sell Quasi-Immortal Level immortal medicine. Even if it was just a leaf, it would be enough to cause a sensation.
“We’ve been to the Demon State before and we were robbed then. Have you forgotten?” The Qilin said.
She still harbored this grudge. Back then, because she had not been a match for her opponent, she had been forced to hand over the treasure to save her life.
Now that Lin Mo had the power to fight a Quasi-Saint and was in the Demon State, she just had to take revenge.
“It’s not that big of a deal…”
Lin Mo facepalmed. He had thought that something was wrong, but in the end, it had only been this…
Back then, they had not been strong enough, so it had been normal for them to be robbed. That Quasi-Saint had not made things difficult for them.
As time passed, he had gradually forgotten about what had happened back then.
“You still want to go back?” Lin Mo said helplessly.
“Since we have nothing to do anyway, we can occupy his city and form a Chamber of Commerce there,” said the Qilin as she rubbed her hands together and helped Lin Mo make a decision.
“Alright…”
Fire City, the city where Lin Mo and the Qilin had stayed, was now back. Everything was normal here.
“I can’t sense the aura of a Quasi-Saint…”
When the two of them appeared, Fire City was still bustling with people, but there were no signs of a Quasi-Saint.
“It can’t be that he ran away…” the Qilin said unwillingly. This was unreasonable…
“He might have gone out for something…” Lin Mo waved his hand dismissively. He didn’t have much of a grudge against the person, so he couldn’t be bothered to chase after the person even if they had run away.
At this moment, he was walking in Fire City as he listened to the discussions of the people around him.
“That’s good. Let’s take over his nest. When he comes back, the expression on his face will be very interesting to see.” The Qilin clapped her hands in anticipating of an attack.
Lin Mo hurriedly held her down. This little girl was not willing to stop for even a moment.
“Forget it, let’s attack…”
After thinking about it carefully, Lin Mo let go of the Qilin and allowed her to attack.
Since the system mission was there, he couldn’t just not do it. The Chamber of Commerce would be established sooner or later, so he might as well occupy this place.
Unexpectedly, the occupation of Fire City went smoothly. Not many people resisted, and the city lord didn’t run away.
It turned out that the Demon State was in chaos. There would also be disputes between various forces and cities.
The Fire City Lord had lost his life in the last war, and now, this city was ungoverned.
“Don’t tell me that we are going to fight someone right after occupying it…”
In the City Lord’s estate, the Qilin was sitting on the sofa, feeling a little bored. When she heard someone reporting the situation to Lin Mo, she was instantly dissatisfied.
“It’s like this. Because Fire City has a relatively large flow of people, there are many people who are eyeing this city,” said the person who was making the report as he looked at Lin Mo and the Qilin curiously.
He knew some of the names of these two. Hence, when they had appeared and expressed their intention to take over Fire City, he had immediately led his men to surrender.
That was in spite of the later rumors that the Emperor-to-be who had stood up for Lin Mo would not be protecting him.
However, there was still a powerful Absolute Saint. To normal Kings like them, that was a supreme existence.
But from the looks of it, the Absolute Saint wasn’t here.
If that was the case, could these two juniors really defend Fire City?
Such a thought appeared in his mind, but he did not dare to say anything.
After receiving Lin Mo’s order, he went down to announce the news.
[ Mission completed. The first Supreme-grade Spiritual Stone Mine has been born in the Inner World. ]
At this moment, the system’s voice sounded in Lin Mo’s mind, reminding him that the mission had been completed.
Fire City had been taken over and changed to Lin City. The news about the Molin Chamber of Commerce had also just been announced.
Lin Mo was still very curious about the Supreme-grade Spiritual Stone Mine. He immediately brought the Qilin in to check it out.
The Inner World had become bigger, or rather, there were more places with land. An endless mountain range appeared in one area.
The mountain peak was silver-white in color, and there were many crystal mines above it.
Lin Mo’s eyes widened and he swallowed hard.
“Even ordinary mountain rocks are low grade spiritual stones…”
Never in his wildest dreams had he expected that the so-called first Supreme-grade Spiritual Stone Mine would be so huge, covering an area of nearly 500,000 miles.
As far as his eyes could see, it was all spiritual stones. Low-grade spiritual stones had become ordinary mountain rocks, and Middle-grade spiritual stones were just larger stones.
There were countless High-grade spiritual stones and countless Supreme-grade spiritual stones were buried below.
“In terms of value, it is not inferior to the Nine-Element Celestial-Grade Dragon Vein…” Lin Mo said in a low voice. With such a mineral vein, why would he need to worry about cultivation resources?
He had never seen other Supreme-grade Spiritual Stone Mines, but he was sure that those that had appeared on the battlefield were definitely not as good as his.
“To be able to produce so many Supreme-grade spiritual stones, what’s buried below must not be simple,” said the Qilin as she pointed below.
Generally speaking, in order to produce a Supreme-grade Spiritual Stone Mine, one needed to put the rough embryo of a Supreme-grade spiritual stone into a High-grade Spiritual Stone Mine.
However, it was not so easy to form such a huge spirit ore.
Not to mention this huge mine that covered 500,000 li.
“Should we get someone to mine it?” Qilin asked.
It was also a problem how to use such a huge spirit ore, because this was a small world that was controlled by Lin Mo.
It was best not to let too many people in. However, with just their manpower, they could at most dig up 10,000 to 20,000 Supreme-grade spiritual stones every day…
“Let’s not make a move for now,” said Lin Mo shook his head. He had no intention of publicizing this spiritual mine.
The Nine-Element Celestial-Grade Dragon Vein was the most suitable place for the Qilin to enter seclusion. It was extremely beneficial for her cultivation.
However, it was not suitable for him. Moreover, every time he cultivated, he would damage the dragon vein.
Relatively speaking, this spiritual mine was the most suitable place for him to cultivate.
In the future, if he wanted to make a breakthrough, he could cultivate here directly. Not only would it not affect him, but he would also not have to expend so much effort to mine Supreme-grade spiritual stones.
After settling down in Lin City, the news of the Molin Chamber of Commerce spread.
One after another, people came to investigate this place during this period of time. Even the forces that had wanted to attack this place hesitated.
This was because they were unsure of Lin Mo’s current background.
If the rumors were true, Lin Mo not only had the backing of the Imperial Clan from the Southern Continent, but there was also a woman who even the three Imperial Clans from the Northern Continents were wary of.
No matter what, these people would not dare to act rashly. Of course, at any time, just deterrence was far from enough.
After occupying Lin City for a month, the first problem finally arrived.
At this moment, Lin Mo was standing on the city wall. Outside were three mighty armies.
Of course, what worried them the most were the three Quasi-Saint powerhouses in front of the army…
