After several days of travel, Qin Hao found a tavern in a city and rested for a night.
The next day, the journey continued, repeating this pattern. After being away for over ten days, he finally arrived at Su Yun City, the northernmost city of the Southern Continent.
Outside Su Yun City lies the Desolate Plain stretching for billions of miles, crossing which leads to the territory of the Central Continent.
This morning, while Qin Hao was having breakfast in the tavern, the people at the adjacent table began to talk: "Did you hear? The Su Family discovered a large middle-grade Spirit Stone Mine deep within the Desolate Plain a few days ago. They're mining it now, and a large number of Spirit Stones are being brought back daily."
"Recently, someone found the cultivation cave of an ancient expert in the Desolate Plain, which contained many Spirit Stones, elixirs, and weapons. That person has vanished now; no one knows where they're hiding and cultivating."
