The east city is as prosperous as the east city, with wide streets and perfect facilities, which are no worse than the west city.

In order to save time, the three of them paid five taels of spirit crystals to take a carriage, of course, it was still paid by Jin Teng, and they went out of the east city of Phantom Heaven City all morning, and went all the way east, and came to the mining area an hour later, and the three of them got off the carriage.

Mines suddenly appeared on the flat ground, a few hundred meters above the ground, which was out of place with the terrain.

The mines in front of it are continuous, most of them are hundreds of meters, and the highest mines can even reach thousands of meters, as if a hilly area suddenly appeared on the plain, and the college has arranged for many people to be responsible for mining here.

There are many people here who are residents of Phantom Sky City, and they basically come here every day to go up the mountain to mine crystal ore with various tools in exchange for payment.

Ling Yao and the three of them didn't know much about this place, so they found an older person in charge to ask about the situation here.

After the introduction of the old man, I learned that this is one of the largest spirit crystal mining areas in the Phantom Heaven Continent, which is owned by the Phantom Heaven Academy.

This place was a treasure land many years ago, the aura was thick and could not be opened, and finally turned into a liquid state, exposed to the wind and sun, after a series of changes to form a crystal, that is, the spirit crystal, and after many years of sand and dust invasion, geological changes, mixed with stones, formed a spirit crystal mine, more and more spirit crystal mines, and finally formed a mine.

Nowadays, the most lacking thing on the earth is spiritual energy, so it is necessary to mine these spiritual crystals, and after a series of processing, the spiritual crystals are separated from the stones to obtain pure spiritual crystals for people to use.

Or use it in exchange for what you need, or like the Illusory Sky Academy, re-transform a large number of spirit crystals into aura to create an environment where you can cultivate.

Ling Yao picked up a tool for mining crystal ore and walked towards the mine: "We are not here to listen to other people's stories, don't forget that we are here to work and earn remuneration through our own efforts. ”

King Zhou Shan and Jin Teng followed, one by one ready to do a great job, especially King Zhou Shan, who was originally to learn some skills to earn spirit crystals, and through the guidance, he brought tools and followed the signs to go up the mountain to mine crystal ore.

It was getting dark, and Ling Yao and the three of them finally realized the hard work, their hands hurt and their feet hurt, Ling Yao even grinded out blisters, and Jin Teng even scratched a wound on his hand, but King Zhou Shan was very experienced, and he mined the most among the three.

King Zhou Shan teased: "What's the matter, you can't compare to me, you two have fine skin and tender meat, you look pampered, and you can't do this tiring work." ”

Indeed, Ling Yao and his master live in seclusion in the mountains, everything is done by the master, not to mention Jin Teng, who has been dressed and eaten since he was a child, but King Zhou Shan has been used to doing rough work since he was a child.

The three of them have also opened their spiritual veins, and their strength and durability are far beyond ordinary people, and even they feel very tired, but it is conceivable that ordinary people are even harder.

Ling Yao and Jin Teng both sighed secretly: Spirit crystals are really hard to earn.

In the end, through the statistics of the crystal ore mined by the three people, a total of forty taels of spirit crystals were paid to the three people, and the three of them looked at the spirit crystals obtained through their own labor and felt comfortable for a while, spending what they earned was completely different from spending what others gave, and they earned more peace of mind and comfort.

Ling Yao calculated: "If you work here for one day, almost one person can earn twenty taels of spirit crystals, if you are skilled, it is estimated that you can reach thirty taels, and the academy only charges one hundred taels per month, so if you mine spirit crystals every month, you only need to take time to come for five days, it can be seen that the income is really not much, and the main thing is to train us." The two couldn't agree more.

Ling Yao was slightly puzzled in his heart: "Do you say that these crystal ores we mine can't directly absorb the spiritual energy inside, why do you have to transport them to the academy for unified processing?"

The two of them couldn't understand it, so they went to ask the old man again.

The old man was not bored, and patiently explained to them: "First of all, the crystal ore that has just been mined is not pure, and it is not easy to absorb, and then there is a private transformation of the spirit crystal into aura, which is completely a wasteful behavior, at the moment of turning into aura, most of the aura, will dissipate between heaven and earth, and only a very small part will be absorbed. ”

"And the academy has a large array that can lock most of the aura inside the academy to create an environment with sufficient spiritual energy, and only a small part will leak out, so the spirit crystal can be used in the academy to exert the greatest value. ”

After hearing this, the three of them suddenly realized and thanked each other.

The three of them simply cleaned and walked in the direction of Phantom Sky City, preparing to go to the front and take a carriage back, when suddenly a person ran over from the opposite side, and there was also a sign of Phantom Academy hanging on his waist, and at a glance, he knew that the person was from Phantom Academy.

I saw the man hurriedly with an anxious look on his face: "A friend of mine is injured over there and can't walk, for the sake of the same door, I also ask the three of them to help me send my friend back to the academy." ”

Ling Yao and the three of them glanced at each other and agreed without much thought, letting the man lead the way.

The man led Ling Yao and the others out of the main road leading to Phantom Heaven City, and after walking a few hundred meters to the side, he turned a small dirt slope and arrived at a relatively low-lying place, where it was no longer visible from the main road.

Ling Yao sensed that something was wrong and stopped, because he didn't see the injured person here, and the anxious look on the man's face also turned into a sneer, "Hmph, idiot, I don't believe it can be so easy to be deceived." ”

At this time, six people came out from behind a big rock, all of them were from the Illusory Academy, and the leader in the middle was none other than Yin Wei, one of the top ten masters of the Illusory Academy.

As soon as King Zhou saw Yin Wei, he was angry: "Grandma, it's you treacherous villain again! ”

Before Yin Wei could say anything, the five people around him spoke.

"Dead fat man, keep your mouth clean, dare to talk to Brother Yin like this, be careful to abolish you. ”

"Since we are here today, everyone is in the same door, and we don't embarrass you, you just have to kneel down and kowtow to Brother Yin, and accompany him, and this matter will pass. ”

Such a contemptuous tone and playful expression made King Zhou Shan indignant: "Kneel your mother's head, be careful of the fat master, I will kill you." ”

Ling Yao and Jin Teng were also very angry, but they were much more sensible, and grabbed King Zhou Shan: "Don't be impulsive, the other party is overwhelming, and this place is relatively remote, and it is still outside the Illusory Sky City." ”

"Toast and don't eat and drink, give you a chance, you don't want it, then don't blame me, let me understand, how far you have cultivated, even Yin Jiangongzi is not your opponent. ”

"Can't be cheap, he broke one of Yin Jiangongzi's arms, and he will also break one of his arms today. ”

The six of them all looked at Yin Xian, Yin Xian just snorted coldly, looked at King Zhou Shan sinisterly, and did not stop them.

The six people already understood that this is what Yin Wei meant, and it was impossible to make a light move.

So, the person who deceived Ling Yao and the three of them made a decisive move, quickly bullied forward, and hit King Zhou Shan with a punch, King Zhou Shan was not afraid to raise his fist to deal with it, but one punch, only one punch, the man did not take a step back, but King Zhou Shan was knocked to the ground, rolled on the ground several times in a row, and there were already blood stains on the corners of his mouth, Jin Teng hurriedly went to help King Zhou Mountain.

This scene stunned the six people on the other side, even Yin Wei stared at King Zhou Shan, showing a puzzled look, and he couldn't believe the person who knocked King Zhou Mountain down, thinking: "How is it possible! I haven't used all my strength, how can a person who can punch Yin Jian and break a bone be so unbeaten, I am about the same strength as Yin Jian, how can this be?"

It's just that he didn't think about it, he just felt that he had a lot of face on his face after knocking King Zhou Shan, and he wanted to show off further, so he slapped another palm towards Ling Yao.

Ling Yao secretly accumulated spiritual energy, raised his palms to greet him, "bang!" Ling Yao didn't move, but the man rolled out for a long distance in a row, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and he couldn't stand up and lost his combat strength.

This time everyone was stunned again, and they all opened their mouths wide, and Yin Wei looked at Ling Yao with a shocked expression.

Jin Teng and King Zhou Shan's eyes also widened, they didn't expect this little brother who had always seemed to be weak and a little shy to be so powerful! It took a long time for the other side to recover from the shock.

"How can this be, according to the news, isn't it only the fat man who has the strength to gather the spirit realm, and the other two have a psychic realm, and a waste who hasn't even opened the spirit vein?"

"Yes, it is said that the fat man is still in the Gathering Spirit Realm, and he broke Yin Jiangongzi with one punch, which someone saw with their own eyes. ”

"Could it be that I made a mistake, it was this kid who knocked down Yin Jiangongzi, not the fat man?"

Yin Wei stared at Ling Yao with a dark face, his eyes narrowed even more, his eyes burst with light, and he slowly spoke: "I understand, it turns out that we have all been deceived, the real powerful person is you, you have always made small movements behind your back, and I thought you were just a psychic realm, I really underestimated you." ”

Then Yin Wei said to the other five: "You have to be careful, this kid is undoubtedly in the Spirit Gathering Realm, and his strength is strong, the other two don't have to care." ”

"Boy, let you know how good we are today. The five did not dare to be careless, and all showed their weapons, two with spears, one with a sword, one with a knife, and one with a dagger.

The tip of the spear and the blade all had a faint brilliance flowing, and at a glance, it was clear that the realm of gathering spirits was all the same, and when they came up, they poured spiritual energy into the blade, and it seemed that they were a little afraid of Ling Yao.

Ling Yao said to Jin Teng and King Zhou Shan: "The other party is in the realm of gathering spirits, you two retreat for the time being, and I will deal with it here." ”
