Chapter 654: Chapter 340: Cold Lake Origin Vein, Share of Origin Stones_2

“`

Lu Yun and his group of ten each guarded an area and controlled a magic formation core.

Yuan Yao was in charge of Zone Eight, Lu Yun guarded Zone Nine, and Chang Xiaorui guarded Zone Ten.

Liu Tianhu was stationed in Zone One, the central hub of the Cold Lake Origin Mine’s array, a core location that could monitor the other nine zones and provide support at any moment.

Of course, above them were three Martial Artists of the Unity Realm and an Elder of the True Spirit Realm who would step in to resolve the situation should strong enemies invade.

Under normal circumstances, they would not easily intervene.

After the handover, the three Unity Realm Stewards and the True Spirit Realm Elder briefly appeared to give simple instructions and then were not seen again.

“All Junior Brothers and Sisters, let’s take our positions!”

Then they each headed to their respective zones.

Upon arriving in Zone Nine, Lu Yun immediately sent out a message to summon all the personnel of the area.

There were a total of twelve Celestial Human Realm Outer Sect Disciples and one hundred and twenty Golden Core Realm Servant Disciples.

Among the Outer Sect Disciples, there were three Managers and nine Stewards.

The three Managers were Shi Mengbin, Teng Ziqi, and Tong Manqing.

Among them, Shi Mengbin was the strongest, at the fourth level of the Celestial Human Realm.

Teng Ziqi and Tong Manqing were roughly equal, both at the third level of the Celestial Human Realm.

The three of them were responsible for handling the mining of Origin Stones and other matters in Zone Nine.

Beneath the Managers were the nine Stewards, and then the Servant Disciples who acted as supervisors.

The supervisors, Stewards, Managers, and Lu Yun as the guarding officer formed the management system for the Origin Vein in Zone Nine.

To ensure sufficient cultivation time for everyone, whether Managers, Stewards, or supervisors, a rotational rest system was implemented.

Beneath them were the miners responsible for the excavation.

These miners were mostly comprised of personnel from suppressed enemy forces and some hired independent cultivators.

Those from the suppressed enemy forces had heavy shackles on their feet and hands to prevent escape.

Independent cultivators had no such restrictions, could earn a certain reward for mining enough Origin Stones, and were free to leave at any time.

In summary, apart from those from suppressed enemy factions, the administration of the Green Flame Palace was very humane.

Apart from one on-duty Manager, four Stewards, and sixty supervisors who were on duty today, the rest had been summoned by Lu Yun.

During the handover, he had met those who were on duty, but as he had yet to meet the resting ones, he summoned them for an initial meeting, a formal encounter between superiors and subordinates.

“We meet Senior Brother Lu Yun!”

The crowd, seeing a new Official Disciple arriving, were all a bit nervous, as they didn’t know the character of this Senior Brother.

If lucky, they might encounter a Senior Brother who doesn’t interfere much, which would make their time ahead easy, allowing them to continue earning some benefits and improving their cultivation.

If not, and they stumbled upon a strict and old-fashioned Senior Brother, their future would be difficult.

“There’s no need for formalities, fellow Junior Brothers and Sisters; we are all fellow disciples, so relax,” Lu Yun responded.

After everyone stood up, Shi Mengbin, the highest in realm among the Managers, respectfully said, “Senior Brother Lu, Junior Sister Tong and the other disciples on duty cannot come meet you until later; we hope for your understanding, Senior Brother Lu.”

“I have met Junior Sister Tong and the others already, so it’s fine. I summoned everyone mainly to become acquainted and to lay out a few requirements for the upcoming six-month guarding mission,” Lu Yun explained.

“First, you must be earnest and meticulous on your duty days.”

“Second, continue doing things as they have always been done.”

“Third, don’t disturb me unless it’s important.”

The crowd, upon hearing this, felt a wave of relief.

The affairs of the Origin Vein had been managed for many years according to the Qinghuo Palace’s established procedures and a strict management system; everything could carry on as usual.

If they had a Senior Brother who liked to meddle and command without reason, creating confusion and even interfering with their modest kickbacks.

Shi Mengbin and Teng Ziqi exchanged glances below, then both tacitly nodded their understanding.

After casually inquiring about the situation of the Origin Vein in Zone Nine, Lu Yun dismissed everyone, not wanting to engage in pointless chatter.

The affairs of the Origin Vein were of little interest to Lu Yun, and he did not want to be bothered with them. He was here primarily to use the energy of the vein to cultivate the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength and to earn some points.

“`

As for the benefits, he had already hinted earlier that if the people below were savvy enough, they would take the initiative to bring them to him.

If they weren’t savvy, then he would really have to straighten out the atmosphere below, to let them know what integrity meant.

After everyone had left, Lu Yun left the great hall and turned to his residence.

This was where he lived, and it was also the control hub for Array No. 9 of the Origin Veins.

This place was also one of the areas richest in spiritual energy and power within the entire Cold Lake Origin Veins.

Above the Dao groups!

Lu Yun drew a token from his hand, and his consciousness surged, following a mysterious connection, he quickly sensed the Array that guarded the Region No. 9 of the Origin Veins—the Cold Frost Smoke Cloud Great Array.

With the help of the Array, Lu Yun extended his consciousness from the central great hall, spreading outward rapidly, and soon the surroundings of the Region No. 9 Origin Vein appeared clearly in his mind.

At the many mining caves in Region No. 9 Origin Vein, numerous miners slowly entered and exited the caves.

Many Servant Disciples were watching every move around them, ready to intervene the moment they spotted anything unusual.

Lu Yun’s consciousness attempted to enter the caves but was unsuccessful.

Clearly, the Array did not cover the inside of the caves.

Lu Yun could only move to the outside, and as his consciousness advanced, he clearly perceived the environment within a dozen miles around the Origin Vein, including every small movement.

He could even clearly sense the abundance of spiritual energy and power in the air.

After a while, Lu Yun withdrew his consciousness and then left his consciousness imprint within the Array, beginning to try activating the Cold Frost Smoke Cloud Great Array.

It didn’t take long for Lu Yun to master the operation of the Array and to know roughly how much power it could exert under his control.

With the geographic advantage and the Array, he was confident that he could confront those who had just entered the Unity Realm.

He slowly exhaled a breath of relief; with this Array in place, outsiders would typically not dare to intrude upon his domain.

At the same time, as he mastered the Array, he felt that he could maneuver the dense origin force of the region, and a smile appeared on Lu Yun’s lips.

With enough origin force for cultivation, Lu Yun felt as if he could already see the scene of a hundred thousand eighteen thousand Giant Elephants roaring within him.

Dispelling the numerous distracting thoughts in his mind, Lu Yun sat cross-legged on the Dao platform and quickly entered a cultivation state.

A golden glow enveloped him, and then a Golden Divine Elephant Illusion materialized, constantly absorbing the origin force that was leaking out of the Array’s operation.

As time passed, one after another, the Elephant Microparticles awakened.

“Hmm, they’re quite sensible indeed.”

As evening approached, Lu Yun slowly opened his eyes, a smile flashing in his gaze.

“Knock knock knock!” The sound of knocking ensued.

“Senior Brother Lu, Shi Mengbin requests to see you!”

Outside, Shi Mengbin spoke softly.

“Creak!”

The door opened automatically.

“Senior Brother Lu, according to tradition, the guardian receives five Mid-level Origin Stones every month. We’ve prepared them for you,” Shi Mengbin said respectfully while handing over five energy-rich Origin Stones to Lu Yun.

Mid-level Origin Stones and Lower Grade Origin Stones both had the shape of a rhombic prism, the same size, but the energy was denser and purer.

Lu Yun nodded slightly, saying, “Junior Brother Shi, work hard. I have high hopes for you.”

“Rest assured, Senior Brother, just focus on your cultivation. We will take good care of the Origin Stone mines, ensuring the monthly production meets the quota,” Shi Mengbin immediately made his stance clear.

Lu Yun nodded, “Alright, you may go.”

Afterwards, seeing Shi Mengbin carefully close the door and leave, Lu Yun could not help but smile.

An allocation of five Mid-level Origin Stones a month was somewhat beyond his expectations.

It’s no wonder so many Official Disciples liked to take on the task of guarding the Origin Stone mines.

As for how much the people below skimmed off the top, he didn’t want to interfere anymore.

He also believed that no matter how bold the people below were, they wouldn’t take more than himself.
