My Farming-Style Cultivation Is Way Too Steady - Chapter 480
Chapter 479 Underground Mining!
Xu Changqing wasn’t very interested in this banquet that had been held for three thousand years.
Indeed, a family that can be passed down for three thousand years is comparable to many cultivation sects, which proves that the Luohe Bei family is indeed powerful.
It should be noted that the Dongting Immortal Sect has existed for tens of thousands of years and is one of the three major immortal sects in the entire Tianyuan Realm.
In comparison, its appeal is naturally lower.
Bei Qinghui was taken aback at first, then smiled and said, “I guess my cousin is busy. If you are interested, I can take out the invitation now.”
Xu Changqing waved his hand: “Not interested.”
Without waiting for the other party to say anything more, he walked towards the entrance of the ley line on his own.
Watching the other person’s departing figure, Bei Qinghui murmured, “What is my cousin doing?”
This person is not only a core disciple, but also the only Spirit Cultivator in the Spirit Field.
They have both status and position.
It’s unbelievable that I wasn’t invited.
…
…
On the other side, Xu Changqing went down to the bottom, where there were mine tunnels that stretched in all directions.
After glancing at the map and confirming the distance and direction of one of the potential hazards, I immediately headed towards a mine tunnel.
Compared to other places, not many people in this area know Xu Changqing.
After all, most of the disciples with earth-elemental roots spend their days and nights mining spirit ore, so they rarely go out and are often behind in terms of information.
Besides, everyone was exhausted and had no time to notice who was passing by.
But this is good too, Xu Changqing couldn’t be undisturbed.
As they continued to descend, the depth quickly exceeded several thousand meters.
Earth energy is the same as soil spiritual energy. For those with earth spiritual roots, mining is a form of cultivation.
In such deep places, the concentration reaches a certain threshold.
The further you go, the more the pressure will increase.
Even those with stronger resilience to pressure, like those with earth-elemental roots, would feel uncomfortable in this environment.
Fortunately, Xu Changqing was different. Even though he was only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, he didn’t feel much of a difference. Moreover, with a perfect spiritual root of the Five Elements, his resistance was almost maxed out.
As they walked, the first potential hazard location on the map began to flash, and the frequency increased as they got closer.
It looks like it’s just missing a sound.
Xu Changqing’s eyes lit up: “Finally found the first one, hopefully it will be a good start.”
However, when he actually got close to, or rather, arrived at, he was dumbfounded.
It appears to be just a typical mineral vein with a gap in one of its sections, and nothing else.
Forget about insects, you can’t even see their poop.
Clearly, someone beat them to it.
“I should have thought of that!”
“After all these years, Yang Zhenyue must have come here.”
“If I come back now, wouldn’t I just be picking up what others have left over?”
Upon seeing this, Xu Changqing immediately realized what was happening and couldn’t help but frown.
Clearly, there used to be something here, but it’s gone now.
Whether it was an insect or something else, only Yang Zhenyue probably knows.
If it were someone else, they would definitely turn around and leave at this point, and wouldn’t waste time here.
But Xu Changqing was different. Even without the insects he longed for, he still took out the treasure-hunting chisel he had obtained from Jin Xuanzi’s cave.
As soon as it appeared, it immediately lit up.
The reason is that it sensed the nearby mineral vein; this is one of its effects.
However, this was just the most common spirit iron mine, and Xu Changqing had no intention of mining it. What he really wanted to know was whether there were any rarer ores or minerals.
So they followed the path of the spirit iron mine, searching and searching continuously.
At first, there was no success, but after about fifteen minutes, the chisel in my hand suddenly started to vibrate.
It seems that it sensed something.
Moreover, it’s not just any ordinary thing.
Because it’s a normal mineral, this thing would only glow.
Only when something reaches a rare quality will it generate a vibration.
Furthermore, the rarer it is, the faster the vibration frequency, revealing “excitement”.
Seeing this, Xu Changqing released his right hand from the chisel. It did not fall to the ground, but floated in the air. Then, it aimed at a spot, flew over, and began to dig with a “click-click” sound.
Xu Changqing stood to the side, a slight smile on his face: “It’s so nice not having to do it myself.”
In less than a minute, a breach was indeed dug.
Immediately afterwards, something appeared inside that was somewhat similar to, yet different from, spirit iron.
It is a transparent hexagonal prism-shaped crystal with a faint starlight inside.
It appears to contain a certain concentration of spiritual energy and also possess the properties of spirit iron.
Xu Changqing nodded slightly: “It really is a spirit iron crystal.”
When the spiritual energy in spirit iron reaches a certain concentration, crystals will form.
However, this thing grows very slowly; it takes more than 10 years for a crystal to grow to a diameter of 1 centimeter.
The thing in front of me looks about the size of an adult’s fist.
In other words, it has been growing for at least a hundred years.
Ordinary spirit iron is generally not very valuable because it is produced in large quantities.
However, spirit iron crystals are different; they are relatively rare minerals and therefore more expensive.
A stone with a diameter of 1 cm is worth about 50 mid-grade spirit stones, though the price may vary occasionally.
Xu Changqing, of course, didn’t hold back and immediately dug it out.
Although we didn’t find any insects, finding rare minerals is still good.
Previously, it cost five mid-grade spirit stones to clear land and expand the fields, but now it has earned back at least ten times that amount.
Seeing how profitable mining was, Xu Changqing stroked his chin and decided he didn’t want to leave.
After much deliberation, they decided to continue their search while heading towards the second potential hazard.
Thanks to the treasure-hunting chisel and the max-level Golden Seal Heavenly Technique, the journey has been full of rewards.
The number of Light Iron Crystals exceeded three, and an even rarer ore was also discovered.
它和正常的灵铁、灵铁结晶都不一样,看上去形状更大,表面泛着银白色的金属光泽,看上去相当有质感。
还有类似闪电一样的黑色纹路在上面若隐若现。
凿子敲打上去的时候,居然发出了“叮叮当当”的清脆声响。
当徐长青靠近时,感受到了一丝微弱的刺痛感,甚至和自身的金灵根产生了呼应。
他立马让凿子挖出来,然后放在地上仔细观察。
经过一番评估后,终于确认了这个东西。
不出意外的话,应该是“庚金灵铁”。
它比灵铁结晶更加稀有,其价值超过一千中品灵石,且不是一整块,而是一小块。
这一瞬间,徐长青的呼吸都变得粗重起来:“看样子,挖矿比种田赚钱多了。
难怪这些土灵根一个个嚷嚷着累,但又不愿意离开。
换做是我,恨不得天天待在地下。”
万万没想到,今天的运气这么好。
虽然第一个隐患之处没有虫子,却挖到了好几个稀有矿石,简直可以用血赚来形容!
