Chapter 1990
The existence of the Immortal Mine allowed cultivators to refine their second soul, the second of the three major souls. If they were to find a Divine Herb Mine in the future, they could refine the third soul. With all three souls united, the power of the six souls would naturally increase.
Zhu Yanyi finally understood why the Dark Forest valued the Lucky Forest so much. If there really was a Divine Herb Mine, everything made sense.
"So, Black Ru broke into the Lucky Forest many times mainly to scout for this Immortal Herb Mine?" Zhu Yanyi asked seriously.
The Elf Queen nodded slightly. "The creatures in our Lucky Forest do not care much about the Immortal Herb Mine. But for people from the outside world, it is something extremely hard to get. So, it is understandable that they want it."
Zhu Yanyi understood what the Elf Queen meant, but she still had doubts. "Since that is the case, Your Majesty, did you bring me here just to get rid of this Immortal Herb Mine?"
"Yes." The Elf Queen nodded, then continued with a hint of helplessness. "Mortals say that an innocent person carrying a precious gem invites disaster. Our Lucky Forest is targeted by the Dark Forest because of this mine. If Grand Shaman Bai were still here, it wouldn't matter. We could just leave it there as decoration. But now he is missing, and we do not know when he will return. So, it is better to give this troublemaker away."
The Elf Queen looked at Zhu Yanyi earnestly. "To be honest, Yanyi, we did not know what to give you. You brought your classmates here and gave our Lucky Forest new vitality. We want to thank you. Just saying it is not enough for us. So, after discussing with Clan Leader Liu Jin and Clan Leader Gan Lang, we decided to give you this Immortal Herb Mine. There is only one condition: you must use it well and never let it fall into the hands of bad people."
By "bad people," the Elf Queen meant those like the Dark Forest.
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "Your Majesty, please rest assured. You know I do not like the Dark Forest or the Happy Garden. So, do not worry. I will be kind to them, but… Your Majesty, are you really decided to give me the Immortal Herb Mine?"
"Of course. Since I brought you here, it is to take this mine." The Elf Queen said with a smile. "Besides, once you take the mine, our Lucky Forest loses a source of sin. Those who want to steal our resources will have less to protect. This allows us to focus our strength against the enemy."
As she spoke, the Elf Queen looked ahead and pointed. "We have arrived. It is right there."
She pointed to a mountain range covered with countless trees and flowers, but few medicinal herbs. This was understandable. The herb mine condensed the medicinal energy of heaven and earth, making it difficult for other herbs to grow there.
Zhu Yanyi walked slowly forward. She placed her hand on the trees, feeling the peaceful aura they emitted. From the messages they passed, she knew the mine below was indeed an Immortal Herb Mine, and it had already formed a Mine Heart. As long as the Mine Heart was not destroyed, the mine would continuously produce resources.
Zhu Yanyi tilted her head, thinking, then looked back at the Elf Queen. "Your Majesty, are you really giving such a good mine to me? Do you not regret it?"
"Regret what? I cannot use this mine anyway." The Elf Queen laughed. "Besides, by taking the mine, you have spared our Lucky Forest from a disaster."
Zhu Yanyi laughed. "Your Majesty, thank you. I do need the Immortal Herb Mine, but I cannot take your gift for nothing. Rest assured, in a couple of days, I will give you a surprise."
"A surprise? From you?" The Elf Queen looked at Zhu Yanyi curiously. She was actually curious about what surprise Zhu Yanyi would give.
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "Of course. You will know soon."
The residents of the Lucky Forest loved it because of its vitality and spiritual energy, which suited their survival. Zhu Yanyi had nothing else, but she had Wood abilities and the Spirit Spring. She could give the Lucky Forest a beautiful future.
Having made up her mind, Zhu Yanyi waved her hand slightly. The Immortal Herb Mine here fell directly into her hand and was stored in her Ruyi Space.
Once the mine was taken, the area looked somewhat empty.
Zhu Yanyi paused for a moment, smiled, and waved her hand again. She flew into the air, scattering seeds as she passed. These seeds seemed to come alive, growing instantly. Trees became lush, flowers bloomed beautifully, and vines consciously grew and twisted into the shapes of houses, as if waiting for elves to move in.
Zhu Yanyi had created a unique fairyland here.
"So beautiful." The Elf Queen could not believe Zhu Yanyi had such a skill.
Zhu Yanyi returned to the Elf Queen's side and said, "Since I received the mine from you, I could not leave this place barren. I naturally had to change it. So, this is a small surprise for now. As for the biggest surprise, everyone will know in a few days, after the Dark Forest and Happy Garden retreat."
The Elf Queen’s heart moved slightly, but she did not ask further. She only smiled. "Such a surprise is already wonderful. The flowers are blooming, birds are singing, and fruits are fragrant. It is really suitable for elves, dwarves, and beastmen to live. This place is truly good. In a few days, I will have some clansmen migrate here to build homes."
"Your Majesty is truly a queen, thinking so carefully." Zhu Yanyi gave the Elf Queen a thumbs-up, admiring her greatly.
This place, after her cultivation, was no worse than any part of the Lucky Forest. Most importantly, as time passed, the spiritual energy here would become stronger and stronger.
The Elf Queen led Zhu Yanyi back, saying as they walked, "Now I have put down a heavy burden. Even if someone sneaks in again, they will not find this Immortal Herb Mine."
Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Yes. Just let the rumor of the Immortal Herb Mine here be a misunderstanding. Of course, if someone is still not satisfied, you can simply say that Venerable Yanluo took it."
After all, having Yan Aohan take the blame was absolutely no problem.
The Elf Queen was slightly stunned. "Yanyi, the Venerable Yanluo you mentioned… is it that one?" The Elf Queen pointed to the sky and then to the ground, representing the true gods in heaven and the lord of the Underworld.
