"Didn't you say that only on the night of the full moon when the power of the moonlight is strong, the star spirit of the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Sword can be restored? Why has it changed again now? Zimeng wondered.

"It's true that the power of the moonlight is the strongest on the night of the full moon, but I asked the star spirit, and it told me that if you want it to absorb the power of the starry sky, it is better to let it absorb the power of the moonlight in the moonstone. Although the power of the moonlight is not as comprehensive as the power of the starry sky, it is easier to absorb. The box of discarded moonstones over there is the scrap from the experiment just now, and it turns out that these moonstones do work. ”

Xuanyuan gestured to a box of dull moonstones in the corner.

"Then what are you going to Lanyue Lake? Wouldn't it be enough to buy a few carts of moonstones here! Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem for us. Right, Brother Sanniu? ......" Lan Haoren said as he looked at Wang Sanniu playfully.

"I want to! But it's not that easy. The Star Spirit only determined that it could absorb the power in the moonstone, but to really restore it to its origin, it had to be those unmined raw ores, and these mined moonstones, in order to maximize the retention of the power of the moonlight, they did not have much starry power in them.

Therefore, only those moonstones that have been soaked in the waters of the lake, which is full of the power of the starry sky, can make it recover. As for why I said it would be better to go now than to go on a full moon, that's what I came to after asking several caravans.

Moonstone is not something that can be mined by itself, but needs to be mined layer by layer. Only by mining the moonstone that has absorbed the moonlight in the previous month, the deep moonstone can continue to absorb the power of the moonlight in the next month.

In the middle of each month, the power of the moonlight reaches its peak, and the power of the starry sky is also the strongest, but these moonlight powers are all in the lake water, and they are not instantly absorbed by the moonstone. Therefore, moonstone needs to absorb the power of moonlight for half a month before it can reach the conditions for mining. And the most suitable time for mining every month is only those days - early, the power of the moonlight is insufficient, and the quality is not good, and late, because of the influence of the moonlight before and after the two months, the power of the moonlight is mottled.

It is not an easy task for a month's worth of moonstone to be mined in those days. Therefore, many moonstones will still be contaminated with the power of moonshine twice. Although such moonstone will still be mined, it will not be able to buy a good price. However, these moonstones, which they considered to be mottled with power, were great complements to the star spirits.

Therefore, at this time, it is my best to act, if I can help the Moonlight Holy See deal with those mottled moonstones, and give them a good price, I think they will gladly accept it. ”

Xuanyuan explained reasonably for a long time, but everyone seemed to understand. After all, they didn't know much about the situation of the moonstone and the situation of the star spirits. However, they all said that as long as Xuanyuan felt suitable, they would go up the mountain today. So, everyone set off together and went straight to the top of Lanyue Mountain.

Being able to bathe in the abundant power of the moonlight, Lanyue Mountain is naturally very high. In the case of Xuanyuan hurrying with the help of spatial attributes, everyone still climbed for two hours before they came to the top of the mountain.

"Who, is there a pass?!"

As soon as Xuanyuan and his party arrived at the top of the mountain, before they could catch their breath, everyone met the envoy of the Moonlight Holy See who was in charge of guarding here. The messenger held a silver spear in his hand, and his strength seemed to be in a god's desperate situation. Obviously, he already regarded Xuanyuan and the others as illegal trespassers.

"This envoy is tired of reporting to the envoy in charge here, saying that I am here to buy a large number of moonstones that have not been mined last month." Xuanyuan led everyone up a few steps.

"Huh?"

The man frowned, and greeted the crowd, as if to say something to refuse. But before he could speak, his eyes suddenly widened, and in the surprise of everyone, he knelt down on one knee!

"My subordinates see His Excellency the Paladin, I don't know that the Paladin is coming, and I hope the Paladin will forgive me!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the messenger kneeling down, and it was Chu Qingqiu who was facing him!

"What's the situation?!" As a party to Chu Qingqiu, he was at a loss.

Paladin Chief? The little girl named Natal Sophie seemed to have said that she would make herself her "paladin", and gave it back, or rather, a jade pendant to herself. However, this believer of the Holy See of All Saints even thinks that he is the chief paladin?!

"That little one is the Empress of the Moonlight Holy See?!"

After a long time of trying to smooth out the status quo, everyone finally came to such a jaw-dropping conclusion. They had thought a lot about the identity of that little girl, but they never thought that the little girl they met by chance with Chu Qingqiu would be the Moonlight Empress!

"Let's go and call the steward first!" In this case, Lan Haoren, who had the fastest brain turn, replaced Xuanyuan and Chu Qingqiu.

"Yes, Paladin!"

The messenger placed his right hand across his chest, made a gesture of obedience, and then turned and ran to the king. After a while, a tall man with blue armor came to Xuanyuan and the others, followed by a team of cultivators dressed similarly. Seeing the jade pendant on Chu Qingqiu's waist, his expression was also very respectful.

"Cluny, the second knight captain under the command of the Moonlight Empress, see the chief paladin!"

The man walked in front of Chu Qingqiu and gave a knightly salute very respectfully. Seeing such a look, Chu Qingqiu had no choice but to return the salute.

Xuanyuan and the others had already retreated behind Chu Qingqiu at this time, and they were very cooperative in handing over the main position to Chu Qingqiu. Anyway, Chu Qingqiu already knew what Xuanyuan meant, so it was naturally the most suitable for him to talk back.

At this time, everyone could feel that the strength of the self-proclaimed captain of the second knight in front of him was in the early days of the Qing Dynasty. Judging by the way he looks, he should be the real steward here.

"I don't know what the Paladin Master brought here this time?"

For Chu Qingqiu and the others' dress, Clooney felt a little strange, but he didn't ask too much. This jade pendant, which represents the identity of the chief paladin, is the personal order of the Moonlight Empress in the eyes of these sincere disciples. Therefore, although Chu Qingqiu's appearance was very strange and they did not receive any notice in advance, no one present, including Cluny, questioned Chu Qingqiu's identity.

"I'm here with my friends and want to borrow some energy-dappled moonstones. Captain Clooney, I don't know if it's still convenient? Chu Qingqiu responded in a very formal tone.
