Chapter 158 Going to the Mine
After listening to the method of prospecting described by Senior Zhou, Li Qing returned to his courtyard with unfinished thoughts, thinking that he had benefited a lot from today.
Suddenly, Li Qing became very looking forward to going to the mine to dig for spiritual stones tomorrow.
That night, Li Qing did not rest, but began to meditate and practice.
There was no word all night, and when the morning light faded, all the spirit miners immediately received the notice to prepare to go to the mine.
Boom, boom, boom!
Li Qing reluctantly woke up from the deep level of Qi refining, and then quickly made preparations with his hands and feet.
“It takes ten days to go down to the mine at a time, and the journey back and forth takes almost three days.”
He thought about it and finally decided to leave the rice pail in the courtyard. At the same time, he left his storage bag in the small courtyard and only brought some rations with him.
After all, when going to the mines, you are not allowed to bring any storage instruments into the mines. This is to prevent spiritual miners from hiding spiritual stones secretly.
Therefore, everyone must undergo a careful inspection before entering or exiting the mine.
Although Li Qing does not have anything valuable in his hands, as a young monk in the early stages of Qi refining, it is best not to reveal the few jade slips he has obtained and the medium-grade magic weapon Red Shadow. umbrella.
"I left enough food for you. You will stay in the yard to help me look after the house these days. Do you understand?" Li Qing patted the rice bucket on the head.
What responded to him was a lazy tiger roar: "Ouch!"
Since moving to the land of spiritual veins, Fan Tong's energy and spirit have been in good condition, and it can be seen that , it, like Li Qing, enjoys the abundant spiritual energy here.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Li Qing followed the instructions and came to the gathering place.
I saw almost more than thirty people gathered outside the Liu family's clan protection formation, basically all practitioners in the middle and early stages of Qi refining.
The person in the lead was a senior member of the Liu family. His name was Liu Haitian. His cultivation was in the late stage of Qi refining. His vague aura made Li Qing feel slightly frightened.
Li Qing glanced around, and after seeing Old Man Zhou's figure, he immediately ducked over in a low-key manner, showing a naive expression.
"Senior Zhou, I have troubled you to take care of me along the way." Li Qinghan said with a smile.
The name of this old miner with a slovenly appearance is Zhou Tong. He snorted coldly and said: "The Liu family's spirit horses are very docile and very fast. Senior Liu Haitian led the team along the way. This area is hundreds of miles away. Someone who dares to mess with you."
Someone on the side saw this and laughed: "Oh, you have a new disciple, Lao Zhou, haha."
" It looks quite honest, but my cultivation level is a bit low. Can you recognize what a spiritual stone is?"
"Hahahaha, don't dig up the treasure and throw it away instead!"
These jokes are actually not very malicious, they are just boring jokes about the new Li Qing.
In this regard, Li Qing didn't mind at all. He still showed a simple and honest expression like a cowherd boy, subconsciously scratching the back of his head, looking a little at a loss.
Seeing Li Qing's appearance, many people couldn't help laughing.
After waiting for about another quarter of an hour, the team of spirit miners arrived with more than forty people.
After Liu Haitian, who was standing in the front, confirmed that everyone was here, he coughed:
"Ahem, cough, cough, everyone is here, then get ready to go."
< br>
"I won't say any more nonsense. After entering the mine, everyone should be honest and work hard to dig for spiritual stones. Don't do anything that will make you regret it for the rest of your life and cut off your path!"
Boom!
After the words fell, Liu Haitian's powerful aura was immediately revealed, shocking everyone present.
The eighth level of Qi refining is approaching the ninth level of Qi refining.
This is the most powerful immortal cultivator Li Qing has seen so far.
At this moment, one after another the spirit foals were led out.
These spirit foals all have the blood of spirit beasts, but most of them are impure and cannot be considered monsters.
However, after so many years of cultivation, it has become a quite outstanding breed. If you take any one and put it into the world, it will be a peerless BMW.
“唏伦LU!”
Li Qing led a reddish-brown spirit horse colt. These spirit horses are all very tall and have a good aura.
For Li Qing, riding a horse is not difficult, and the spirit horse has a very docile temperament. It is not a fierce horse, and it has not shown anything to make a fool of itself.
"Follow me, let's go now!"
Liu Haitian waved his hand, jumped on his horse, and rushed towards a secret passage outside the Valley of Immortality.
More than forty monks in the Qi refining stage rushed out, creating a mighty momentum.
Being on the road for a day and a half without sleep is nothing to a cultivator.
Li Qing, who possesses great martial arts skills, is even more so. Staying awake for three or four days is just a common occurrence.
The spirit pony's foot strength is quite good, and its speed is beyond Li Qing's expectation.
Although it is not even a first-level monster, its speed and endurance are much better than those of a rice bucket.
There were no accidents along the way. Indeed, as Old Man Zhou said, no unscrupulous person in this area dared to cause trouble for the Liu family.
Ahead, the Lingshi Mine belonging to the Tianhe Sect finally appeared.
Different from the mine that Li Qing imagined, this place is not a white field. Instead, because of the abundant spiritual energy, trees are growing everywhere, lush and full of life.
There are several mountain peaks containing spirit stone veins, all of which are covered by a powerful formation, eliminating any possibility of forced entry. Not long after the Liu family's troops arrived, a halo of light emitted from the formation in front, and a passage appeared.
Soon, a very handsome young man wearing a white robe, holding a flying sword on his feet, floated out.
"Uncle Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?" The man with a dignified face clasped his fists towards Liu Haitian, but never even glanced at the other spirit miners.
Liu Haitian did not dare to pretend to be an elder. Instead, he showed a look of respect. He chuckled and said, "Thanks to little friend Yan, my body and bones are fine. It will be troublesome to go to the mine this time."
The monk surnamed Yan said calmly: "Hahaha, no trouble or not, it's all for the sect's mission."
Yes, the person in front of him is a disciple of the Tianhe Sect!
All the spirit miners present looked at the young man with a flying sword and a cool temperament with respect and envy.
Joining the Tianhe Sect can be said to be a dream for casual cultivators.
Unfortunately, with their cultivation qualifications, they are destined to have little chance of entering the sect in this life.
Led by this Tianhe Sect disciple, Li Qing arrived at the checkpoint.
A ray of spiritual light fell from the formation, and all the spiritual miners were illuminated for a long time. After confirming that no one was carrying a storage magic weapon, they were all released.
Bathing in this white aura, Li Qing felt as if his whole body had been penetrated, even the Earth Elemental Heart Guard that he had just successfully refined was exposed.
Next, under the leadership of another disciple of the Tianhe Sect, everyone received a storage bag and a prohibition token specifically for storing spiritual stones, and then they were sent to several mines in the spiritual mines. .
"After entering the mine, you are prohibited from breaking into other people's mining areas, fighting, and practicing privately with the excavated spiritual stones. I don't think I need to say more about the consequences?"
A man named Yan Hong The Tianhe Sect disciple shouted in a deep voice with a condescending attitude.
The aura that was vaguely revealed was actually a bit stronger than the Liu Haitian that Li Qing had seen just now.
At this age, you are in the late stage of Qi refining. No wonder everyone wants to join the Immortal Cultivation Sect!
Li Qing sighed, then took the token and entered his own mine.
The mine is very deep and has been dug for many years. It takes a long time to walk down to it.
In this dark mine tunnel, Li Qing took two luminous pearls for lighting.
With the faint light, you can see the traces of pickaxes digging around the mine tunnel.
“I don’t know if the mining area I was assigned is rich in ore.” Li Qing muttered.
After entering the quiet mine tunnel, Li Qing no longer suppressed the strong energy and blood in his body, but fully revealed it.
He would have to stay here for the next ten days before he could see the light of day again, and there was no one in sight. The only companion he had was the pickaxe in his hand used for mining, which was a rather crude and inferior magic weapon.
Li Qing poured a little bit of spiritual power into the pickaxe. The metallic spiritual patterns on it glowed slightly, and the pickaxe revealed a sharp edge. It was more than enough for crushing stones and the like.
Fortunately, the spiritual energy inside is quite strong. Apart from the somewhat depressing atmosphere, there is nothing else.
After walking for a while, we finally came to the place where the Lingshi mine was mined. There were several luminous pearls hanging on the walls for lighting.
Such luminous pearls, which are of infinite value in the world, have become extremely worthless in the world of immortality, and can be seen everywhere.
There are a total of three dug holes in the mine. These are the traces left by previous diggers. Li Qing only needs to follow these three holes and dig down.
"Speaking of which, is it possible to travel back to the polar night world?" Li Qing muttered subconsciously, and then quickly froze in place.
Wait!
After realizing this, Li Qing's little heart beat wildly.
If he could travel to the Extreme Night World, wouldn't he be able to dig out the spirit stones here and then throw them into the Extreme Night World? !
"Hiss!"
Li Qing gasped, and then a burst of surprise came to his heart.
“Wait a minute, the world of Jiye is in the Age of Ending Law now. If the spiritual stone is thrown in, I don’t know if the spiritual energy will be spilled out!”
“But we need to try. Try, the old man surnamed Xiang said that after entering the Dharma Ending Age, it seemed that it would take several months for the spiritual energy of the spiritual stones in the Extreme Night World to dissipate."
"Then I can dig Jiutian. Wait until the last day to store the spirit stones in the polar night world, and then take them out without anyone noticing after returning to the Liu family."
The more Li Qing thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, and excitement suddenly surged up.
"Then the only question now is, this place is wrapped in a formation. If I travel back to the polar night world, will I be discovered?"
No matter what, he is. A must try.
Once it can be realized, he will not be working for Tianhe Sect and Liu Family, but working for himself!
All the spirit stones excavated belong to him. He only needs to hand over a reasonable part of it, and he can take away 10% of the part handed over!
Rounding it all off, this Lingshi vein belonging to the Tianhe Sect is equivalent to a place where Li Qingbai prostituted Lingshi!
At this moment, Li Qing felt that he had completed his class sublimation and was no longer a simple worker.
“However, if too few spirit stones are handed in, it will definitely arouse suspicion. When a newcomer has no experience, there is an excuse. But after a long time, if it is considered to be passive and sabotage, then It’s not good.”
Li Qing thought seriously for a while, and suddenly became very motivated to work as a miner.
