Chapter 1171 - 528: Methods for Collecting Cheating During Truancy, The City of Luoyi
The Western Bo, which produced the Stone Treasure Molybdenum Gold, was an ancient place name; now, it is called Luoyi. The Stone Treasure Trench, where it is located, lies within the mountains south of Luoyi, a fact recorded in the Vermillion Geography Records, though the recorded directions are quite vague.
And Luoyi happens to be Lin Xun’s next destination.
Another clue leads to the Mysterious Sea Ice Crystal Essence, which originates from the ’Mysterious Sea Dragon Palace’ deep at the bottom of the Eastern Mysterious Sea. This item was essential for the ancient oceanic Demon Clan’s cultivation, and killing a demon of significant spiritual power in the sea would likely yield this material.
Now, with the destruction of the Demon Clan, demons near the Vermillion waters have long since vanished, making it difficult to acquire the Mysterious Sea Ice Crystal Essence.
As for the locations producing the other three auxiliary materials—’Heavenly Dragon Stone Cave,’ ’Yang’an Earth Meridian’, and ’Yongdong Longji Mountain’—there are absolutely no clues. Lin Xun had repeatedly consulted the Vermillion Geography Records, but couldn’t find a single trace.
He squinted his eyes, and countless characters flashed through them.
Known locations like Luoyi and the Eastern Mysterious Sea were both on the route eastward towards Penglai. From this, Lin Xun inferred that the remaining three auxiliary materials might also be placed along the preset route of the Underworld Game.
But even knowing this, gathering all five auxiliary materials was not an easy task.
Take the Stone Treasure Trench in West Bo, for example; the Stone Treasure Molybdenum Gold was not produced inside the city of Luoyi but in the vast mountains south of the prefecture. Without specific information and precise clues about the location of the Stone Treasure Trench, Lin Xun would likely miss this material even if he passed through Luoyi.
"This could be a bit troublesome..."
After much thought, he came up with two methods.
