The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 531
Chapter 531 Jin Shi and Lian Nian Hua (1)
This world was indeed big. For this continent alone, it was very normal to not see a single person within a few hundred miles. It was not normal to see people.
As for the mountains, there were even fewer people. Unless Wu Yang and the others bumped into the vicinity of the cultivation sect, it would be possible for them to meet other cultivators. However, in the wilderness of this continent, Lei Xingfeng had encountered two cultivators, and the results were not good. In the end, in order to gain a foothold, they even directly annihilated a small sect.
Therefore, both Wu Yang and Lei Xingfeng maintained extremely high vigilance towards the cultivators here. Once the other party revealed malice, they would not hesitate to kill them first. In this strange place, they could not act calmly and could only use force to solve all problems.
Black Bird said, “Bird, scout ahead!”
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, “Be careful.” Although he often scolded Blackbirds, he still liked Blackbirds very much. Of course, he was also very defensive. Blackbirds were also smart. They knew when to play with Lei Xingfeng and when to take things seriously.
Wu Yang nodded and said, “Niao Bude is really not bad.” Fortunately, Niao Bude had already flown far away, otherwise, this fellow would have gone crazy again.
“Let’s keep up,” said Lei Xingfeng.
The black bird flew deeper into the mountains. Naturally, this thing would choose the right path. In the sky, it knew more than humans. Just by instinct, it was stronger than Lei Xingfeng and the others.
The black bird flew down from the top of the mountain peak. It chose an ice and snow canyon. It was unwilling to fly high up. If it flew high up, it would not only be conspicuous, but it would also be easy to be targeted. The black bird had a good grasp of this point. It quickly entered the ice and snow canyon and flew close to one side of the canyon.
Wu Yang and the others followed closely. The black bird did not fly fast. It knew that if it flew fast, it did not have any adaptability. If it was slightly slower, it would have a way to escape in case of danger.
When Lei Xingfeng landed in the canyon, there was a strange feeling in front of him. He was already used to this feeling. He hurriedly said, “Niao Bude, slow down, slow down!” As he spoke, a silver light was already emitted from his eyes. In an instant, he saw a strong light shining from the bottom of the gorge. It was a long belt of light that stretched across the bottom of the gorge. This was a large ore vein. Although he did not know what kind of ore it was, he knew that this ore vein should be quite precious.
Wu Yang said, “What?”
“Let’s go down to the bottom of the canyon,” said Lei Xingfeng.
Gao Ye said, “What treasure did you find?”
Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, “Yes, there is. I just don’t know if it’s a mine.”
Wu Yang greeted, “Niao Bude, stop flying. Stay on guard!”
The Black Bird was very happy to accept the mission. Hearing this, it let out two creaks and flew up.
Lei Xingfeng, Wu Yang, Gao Ye and Lei Xing Yao quickly landed at the bottom of the canyon. This was a world of ice and snow, and there was a thick layer of ice and snow on the ground. Lei Xingfeng said, “Remove this layer of ice.”
Gao Ye smiled and said, “I’ll do it.”
The other three immediately dodged. Gao Ye stood on the ice and stomped his foot forcefully, saying, “Open!”
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
Ka … Bang!
A huge crack appeared in front of everyone. This layer of ice wasn’t very thick, it was only three to four meters deep. After being cut open by Gao Ye, the black soil on the ground was exposed.
With this gap, the others attacked together. The Void Hands flew about, and the ice layer was forcefully removed. Then, the Void Hands directly pierced into the ground. In an instant, the soil on the ground was also lifted, revealing the gravel below. At this time, Lei Xingfeng could clearly see the precious light shining on the gravel. This gravel was a mine.
Wu Yang jumped into the pit, reached out to pick up the stone and said, “This is a mine? What kind of mine is it?”
Lei Xingfeng also jumped down, He also picked up a piece of ore, Looking carefully, Because he had obtained the information from the ancient ruins, Lei Xingfeng quickly recognized that this was an ore. It was the ore used to make ancient crystals. The crystals of Heavenly Evolution and Six-Line Crystals that he had obtained before were all invented by later generations. Furthermore, the energy crystals that he had produced were not available in the ancient times. However, there was a type of crystal stone that was refined from this ore in the ancient times.
In other words, this thing was the raw material for making ancient crystals, and it was also one of the main materials. It was definitely not a bad thing.
For Daolords and Heavenly Monarchs, such large ore veins were easy to excavate, especially under the ice. If it was an ordinary low-level cultivator, it would be very troublesome. After all, ordinary low-level cultivators relied on tools to excavate them, while Wu Yang and the others didn’t.
The stone was filled with transparent crystals, like countless tiny crystals embedded in it. Of course, this thing was definitely not a crystal, but a brocade stone. Under the sunlight, the entire stone shone like brocade.
“This is jinshi, an ore used to refine ancient crystals. It’s quite a good thing. Shall we dig it up immediately? Once other cultivators discover it, we don’t expect to be left with any slag.”
Lei Xingfeng said with a smile.
Wu Yang said, “Then let’s dig. No matter what the materials are, the more the better. We are too poor.”
Lei Xingfeng looked around and delineated the area, saying, “We will each be responsible for one section. Take away the main part, and let someone dig for the rest.”
This ore vein took the form of a vein of leaves. It was a main ore belt, and then there were many small ore veins that extended out. They did not have the mood to dig slowly, so these small ore veins attracted cultivators from the Jingzhi Realm to dig.
The four of them immediately dispersed and began to dig frantically. They relied on their large hands to forcefully uncover the ground, then dug out large chunks of ore and put them into the Lunzang Space. They put away the rubble and dirt together, and when they were free, they would be able to distinguish between them.
Lei Xingfeng and his true body combined to form a giant. Only then would it be satisfying to dig. His two hands were like giant excavators from his previous life. He inserted one hand into the ground and forcefully pulled it down. A few tons of ore was stored in Lunzang Space.
Lei Xing Yao was the slowest, but she had help. Lei Xingfeng sent the black bird to help. Although the black bird and Lin Ling were enemies, it didn’t dare to offend Lei Xing Yao. She was her master’s favorite little sister. Bullying Lei Xing Yao meant that she didn’t want to live. The black bird wasn’t that stupid.
The speed of one person and one bird also increased quickly.
This ore vein was quite large. The four of them dug all the way. Even if the Lunzang Space of the four of them was extremely large, they would not be able to withstand this amount of ore. After all, everyone’s Lunzang Space still needed to store other things. Lei Xingfeng said, “I’ll go back to the Jingzhi Realm and transfer the ore to the warehouse first.”
Wu Yang had also discovered this problem. This was unimaginable in the past. In the past, a few people had been able to search through the so-called ore veins. How could they have seen such a large number of ore veins? “Alright, you go first,” he said. “I’ll go later.”
The four of them took turns returning. There were many large warehouses in the Jingzhi Realm, most of which were built underground. The area and space were huge enough to hold all kinds of ores.
In a very short period of time, the four of them filled up a huge warehouse. The efficiency of the four of them was simply too high.
Gao Ye sighed emotionally, “In the past, without the Jingzhi Realm, even if such a huge ore vein was discovered, it could only be filled with Lunzang Space. The rest of the ore veins are probably going to be abandoned.”
Wu Yang said, “This is the benefit of Mystery Sect. There are many people. A wild ghost like you can’t take away good things even if you see them!”
Lei Xingfeng smiled and said, “It’s useless for him to ask for so many ores. Normally, it’s good enough.”
Wu Yang said, “How could there be enough? It’s just like when we crossed the overpass. We felt that there was enough food and water. I didn’t expect that we would be in such a sorry state. If you hadn’t insisted on preparing so much food in advance, many more people would have died along the way. Resources would never have been enough.”
Lei Xingfeng was deeply touched by these words. Resources were indeed never enough, especially in the case of a Mystery Sect. No amount of resources would be enough to consume. Moreover, even if there was a lot of excavation, it could be used to exchange for other resources. It was impossible for you to obtain all the resources. Some things were not so easy to find.
Lei Xingfeng said, “Then look hard and dig hard.”
A main vein several kilometers long, by four people and one bird, Excavate it all in seven days, Of course, there were still some branch ores left behind. They weren’t worried about this anymore. They didn’t have time to delay here any longer. Lei Xingfeng informed Mystery Sect to have a few Lord bring a bunch of low-level cultivators out of the Jingzhi Realm to dig. They could have any Lord establish a connection with Mystery Sect. When they were done digging, they could all go back.
After Wu Yang arranged everything, the four of them set off again. The Black Bird was still exploring the path ahead, and the four of them followed closely.
A few days later, the four of them stopped in a canyon. This canyon was different from the previous ice canyon. There were a large number of hot springs inside. Under the steaming hot air, there were all kinds of plants around. There were quite a few precious spiritual herbs among them. This was a special environment, and there were always good things in places with special environments.
Xinyao was very happy. Accompanied by Lei Xingfeng, she picked and transplanted all kinds of spiritual herbs.
Lin Ling also hid in Xinyao’s collar and peeked out. She was very vigilant against this strange place. However, her love for spirit herbs was even stronger than Xinyao’s. When she saw spirit herbs, she would often shout and scream.
Then, the two of them noticed a hot spring. The surrounding mist was boundless. In the steaming white mist, they actually saw a small patch of flowers. Lin Ling cried out in alarm, “Lianyuan Flowers, it’s Lianyuan Flowers! Whoosh, I want it, I want it!” As he spoke, he rushed out.
Xinyao was shocked and immediately rushed over. A black shadow flashed and she heard Lin Ling scream.
