During the years of Chu Jiang's cultivation in the sub-position Lingshan, not only did he make a breakthrough in his spiritual qi cultivation, but he also made a breakthrough in his spiritual power, reaching the realm of Dacheng.

This is no longer weaker than his aura cultivation!

In terms of his current spiritual power, it was too easy to disturb the consciousness of a cultivator in the early stage of Qi cultivation.

can let the other party's thinking always follow him, answer whatever he asks, know everything, say everything, and will not hide the slightest.

And I won't remember the experience afterwards.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The old man answered all the questions asked by Chu Jiang.

The old man's name is Zhang Yun, and his power is the Purple Wind City City Lord's Mansion, and he acts as a government soldier in the City Lord's Mansion.

The previous Chen Guard, whose real name was Chen Zhongsheng. It is one of the four guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and the four major guards each have peak qi refining cultivation.

The rest of the government army has two hundred, and their cultivation is all below the peak of qi refining.

There are not a few forces within a thousand miles of here, and the closest is Purple Wind City.

The City Lord's Mansion is a subordinate sect, the city lord's name is Zi Qian, and he has a foundation building cultivation, and he is the only foundation building monk in the entire City Lord's Mansion.

He had a son named Zihang under his knees.

The City Lord's Mansion is subordinate to the median sect Xingyue Academy, and Zihang is a student of Xingyue Academy, apprenticed to a mid-foundation tutor of Xingyue Academy, named Old Man Linlang.

Xingyue Academy is also affiliated with the upper sect, the Flying Snow Sword Sect......

And whether it was the Star Moon Academy or the Flying Snow Sword Sect, they were all extremely far away from Purple Wind City.

In general, although there are many forces within a thousand miles, almost all of them are lower-ranking sects.

It's a pity that Zhang Yun didn't know the news of Taiping Soul Condensing Ointment, Soul Nourishing Ruyi Grass, and Qibao Rong Linggen.

"Where is the location of the fire crystal vein?"

"Near Qingding Mountain, thirty miles east from here. ”

"Who are they?"

"Except for some coolies who are mining, there are only people from our City Lord's Mansion. Led by one of the four major guards of our city lord's mansion, Li Kong Li guards, and thirty government soldiers, they are overseers, specializing in supervising coolies, if the coolies do not dig a pound of fire crystal ore in a day, they will be fined a hundred times, if they do not dig a little fire crystal ore, they will be killed directly. ”

"How many pyrocrystals are you going to dig in total?"

"I don't know, Master Jiang said that the more the better. ”

"Well, okay, go ahead and lead the way. ”

After asking some things clearly, Chu Jiang stopped asking.

Then, Zhang Yun's expression was still sluggish, and he took steps to lead the way ahead.

......

In less than a quarter of an hour, they had arrived at Qingding Mountain.

At the bottom of the mountain, a passage was carved out of a height of a few feet, and some coolies came and went from time to time.

Not far from the passage, there were several makeshift wooden houses, and a few tables were set up outside the wooden houses, around which some government soldiers were sitting down, eating meat and drinking wine.

Zhang Yun had now regained consciousness, and his expression was a little strange.

Because he found that he couldn't remember what happened before, he brought Chu Jiang over in a daze.

Now he only knew that Chu Jiang was brought over for mining by Chen Guard's orders, and he didn't remember anything about the rest, even whether Chu Jiang was an outsider, and he couldn't remember the fact that he asked Chu Jiang for a storage ring!

Shaking his head, Zhang Yun was no longer entangled, and led Chu Jiang to the front of a group of government soldiers.

He arched his hand towards one of the white-shirted men with a white beard and said, "Escort Li, this person's name is Chu Jiang, Escort Chen asked him to come over and do hard labor. ”

Li Kong looked up and frowned slightly: "The early stage of the strongest one?"

Although the secret realm is a broken cultivation realm, not everyone is necessarily a monk, and there are many martial artists.

But the martial artist has a low status in the secret realm, and he is considered an inferior person.

And those who were hired by the City Lord's Mansion to do hard labor were basically the strongest, but the lowest ones were in the middle stage of the strongest, and the vast majority of them were in the late stage and peak of the strongest!

Because the fire crystal ore is relatively strong, people with too low strength dig it up, and the efficiency is extremely low, and they may not be able to dig out a pound for twelve hours a day.

There were the strongest people who mined in the early days, but each time the amount did not reach the standard, and they were killed.

Now there's another ......

"Forget it, there has been a shortage of manpower recently, and the strongest will be in the early stage, and it is a little ...... to be able to create a little value."

Li Huwei frowned and smiled.

It's just that his smile is a little grim.

None of the previous supreme powerhouses reached the standard in the early stage, and most of this kid is no exception, it is estimated that as soon as the sun is seen tomorrow, it will be gone......

"Take him to the mines. ”

Escort Li waved his hand, threw Chu Jiang a storage ring, and then continued to bow his head to eat meat and drink, never looking at Chu Jiang again.

Then, Zhang Yun brought Chu Jiang into the mine.

On the way, he said lightly: "The storage ring that Li Huwei gave you just now has five cubes, which you used to hold the fire crystal mine. Every time you fill the storage ring, you must hand it over to Guard Li, and if you dare to steal it, your fate will be extremely miserable. ”

"However, although mining is hard, the City Lord's Mansion also has a reward, and thirty lower-level spirit stones will be settled for you every day, but the premise is that you must meet the daily quantity. ”

After a pause, Zhang Yun frowned and looked at Chu Jiang: "Boy, the old man asked you something, why is the old man's previous memory blank?"

Chu Jiang said calmly: "I don't know." ”

"I don't know? The old man led you here, why are you okay, but the old man has lost this memory?

Zhang Yun shouted sharply, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"I said I don't know. ”

Chu Jiang still responded.

Come to the secret realm. If you can keep a low profile, try to keep it low-key.

Although he didn't pay attention to the cloud in front of him, he didn't bother to care about it.

But Zhang Yun didn't give up, and his expression gradually became gloomy: "It seems that you don't say it, but the old man has a way to make you speak!"

When the words fell, he actually grabbed Chu Jiang with one hand, wanting to buckle Chu Jiang's neck.

Chu Jiang frowned slightly, and then let go.

"I wanted to spare your life, but you insisted on finding ...... death"

Call......

The spiritual power was released and stirred into Zhang Yun's consciousness, and the latter's body immediately stopped, and his expression was sluggish.

Chu Jiang's eyes were indifferent, and he said lightly: "Find a no-man's land and commit suicide." ”

Zhang Yun nodded numbly: "Yes." ”

Immediately, he turned and walked away. didn't even greet Escort Li, he ran to the top of Qingding Mountain, slapped his palm on his head, bang, his head exploded like a watermelon, and blood splattered all over the ground......

......

"Fire Crystal ......"

Chu Jiang walked in the mine, the mine was dug very deep, and there was a torch on the stone wall at intervals to illuminate the road ahead.

Hundreds of meters later, he stopped somewhere, looked at the stone wall in front of him, and then grabbed the stone wall, and with a little force, he pulled out a large piece of the stone wall.

And inside the stone wall that he pulled out, there were several pieces of ore the size of pebbles, which were fiery red.

This is the fire crystal mine!

Fire Crystal is a refining material, which is not common or rare, and is considered a relatively common material.

The three levels of spirit weapons, mortal-level, true-level, and yuan-level, basically use fire crystal ore.

To some extent, fire crystal ore is an essential material for refining spiritual weapons.

Therefore, the price of fire crystal ore in the market is not bad, at least one hundred lower-grade spirit stones per catty, and even when the situation is good, it can reach about two hundred per catty.

The price is good though. But Chu Jiang didn't look down on it, and he wouldn't swallow it privately.

He has destroyed a lot of forces in the martial arts world, and there are a lot of spirit stones in the storage ring, not to mention the lower level, there are a lot of intermediate levels, although he has never counted them carefully, but the lower level spirit stones are at least tens of thousands. Thousands of intermediate-grade spirit stones.

This net worth, he cares about this?

Moreover, he basically didn't use spirit stones for cultivation, because he needed too much spiritual energy when cultivating, and the amount of spiritual energy contained in lower-level and middle-level spirit stones was not enough for him to absorb at all, even if these spirit stones in his hand were absorbed by him, at most, he would cultivate to improve a little. It is better to keep it in your hand and use it for other purposes, after all, the role of spirit stones is not just for cultivation.

"Hey, the new kid?"

As soon as Chu Jiang put the few pieces of fire crystal ore he had dug up into the storage ring that Zhang Yun gave him, a voice sounded behind him.

Looking back, it was a young man covered in dust, and his cultivation was in the middle stage of the strongest person.

Chu Jiang nodded.

The young man glanced at the stone wall that was directly cut off by Chu Jiang, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes: "New here, you are amazing, you actually grabbed the stone wall with one hand?"

"Damn, or the early stage of the strongest?"

When he noticed Chu Jiang's cultivation, the surprise in the young man's eyes was even stronger, and his mouth was open.

The vein of fire crystal ore is extremely strong, because fire crystal ore is a refining material, and its main function is to be used to strengthen the strength of the spirit weapon. So it's extremely sturdy on its own.

Even if it is a stone wall wrapped in pyrolite, it is rendered by pyrolite all year round, and over time, it is several times stronger than ordinary stone walls, or even close to ten times!

If the ordinary stone wall is equivalent to wood, then the stone wall of the fire crystal vein is steel, and the degree of solidity is not the same.

Generally speaking, the strongest person has to run the exercises at the peak and hit the stone wall with all his strength more than a dozen times before it falls off, while the strongest person needs thirty or forty times in the later stage, and at least seventy or eighty times in the middle stage.

In the early days, not to mention, it would take hundreds of times to say the least.

Therefore, it is normal for the amount of mining in the early stage of the strongest to not meet the standard.

But Chu Jiang directly cut out a large piece of the stone wall with one hand, instead of running the exercises to hit with all his strength, and even, the other hand was useless......

Is this really the beginning of the strongest one?

"Awesome, buddy, introduce yourself, my name is Wu Wei, don't look at my name and feel like I'm useless, actually, eh...... It's really useless, but I believe that one day, I will make a difference!"

Wu Wei patted his chest, his eyes were clear and confident.

"Oh yes, I'm from Shangsha Village. Not far from Purple Wind City, my dream is to become a monk, be admitted to the Star Moon Academy, and become an excellent student in it. ”

"Dude, where are you from and what's your name?"

Wu Wei seems to be a self-acquaintance and talks a lot.

Chu Jiang smiled faintly: "Chu Jiang." Also from a small village. ”

"Brother Chu is good!"

Wu Wei hugged his fist towards Chu Jiang and said enviously: "I am also from a small village, but Brother Chu is much more powerful than me, and the stone wall of the fire crystal vein can be buckled with one hand, which is very powerful." ”

"I once had the opportunity to cultivate a sect-level low-grade spiritual technique, and this spiritual technique happened to be a kung fu in hand. Therefore, it can easily buckle the stone wall of the fire crystal vein. Chu Jiang said.

"It seems that Brother Chu is a person with great luck, and he can get the spiritual skills of the lower grade of the sect, why don't I, Wu Wei, have this kind of opportunity, alas, ......."

Wu Wei sighed, even more envious.

Martial artists practice secret skills, monks practice spiritual skills, and the level of spiritual skills is divided into Zong, Xuan, Earth, Heaven, and Pseudo-Immortal, and each level is divided into middle and upper three grades.

In the secret realm, generally speaking, if the martial artist is not from a good background. It's very difficult to get a sect-level spiritual skill.

Although there are also sect-level spiritual skills sold in the market, even if it is only a sect-level lower grade, the lowest price is more than 30,000 spirit stones, which is too unbearable for the martial artists in the secret realm.

Because the warriors in the secret realm are all inferior people, the work they do is either hard work or some errand work. Even for a hard-working job, the maximum reward for a month is only two or three thousand, which is still the reward that only the strongest can get at the peak.

The strongest ones are less than one-third in the late stage, and even fewer in the middle and early stages, which is about a thousand.

Coupled with the usual expenses, the spirit stones that really come to your hands are only four or five hundred, and even in case of a conflict with someone and being injured, go to someone for treatment, or buy pills, it is very likely that the previous savings will be spent all at once.

Therefore, for a martial artist, it is impossible to buy a spirit stone that is not known how long it will be stored for a sect-level low-grade spirit skill......

"Wu Wei, you don't go to work, you actually come to chat with people? Your skin is itchy again, right?"

A big man with muscles like a dragon walked over with a gloomy face.

When Wu Wei saw the comer, his face suddenly changed.

"Brother Zeng......"
