Chapter 278: Mining Ore

"It's better to do routine tasks first~!" Tianxing turned over his waist card, and most of the routine tasks on it were tasks such as sending letters, patrolling mountains, and escorting darts, and he was really a little unhappy in his heart.

He has been in this Five Elements Realm for more than half a month, except for the 'Jiling Peak' and the main peak, he has almost never been to other peaks, let alone to send a letter to people outside the sect, or to patrol the mountains elsewhere, not to mention the darts, at the beginning of that day, I saw many villagers in the 'Jingde Town', all of whom are at the level of spiritual masters, not to mention those robbers who lick blood from the knife edge and live all day.

"Hey~!, isn't there anything you can do?Huh~This is~Mining~!" Tianxing was puzzled by the mining task, tapped it, and after confirming that he accepted the task, a piece of information was displayed from the waist card, "Fuying Mountain?~??What is this place?" Tianxing looked at the place indicated by the token suspiciously.

In desperation, Tianxing turned over again and returned to the deacon, clasped his fists and asked, "Senior sister, dare to ask where 'Fuying Mountain' is?"

The deaconess was slightly upset when she was disturbed again, and her face was stunned when she saw Tianxing, "Why are you again?"

Tianxing nodded, "Yes~!Because I'm not familiar with the environment here, I have to choose mining, which may be safer and more convenient, but I don't know where the 'Fuying Mountain' is?"

The deacon covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "So that's the case~Senior Brother~!, in this way, I used to draw a map of this sect by myself in the early years, and now it's useless to keep it, if you are willing to use it, sell it to the little junior brother cheaply~!"

Tianxing was stunned for a moment and thought for a while, "Okay~!, I don't know how much senior sister costs?"

The deacons smiled, "Let's make a friend, I'll ask for five spirit stones~!"

"Five spirit stones, is it a little too expensive~!" Tianxing said helplessly.

"It's not expensive~ Senior brother, think about it, if you have my map, it will be convenient for the Ten Thousand Souls Sect to go wherever you want in the future, and it will be much easier to take tasks such as patrolling mountains in the future~ It will save you a lot of trouble~!" The deacons explained slowly.

"Hey~!" Tianxing reluctantly took out five spirit stones and handed them to the female deacon, only to see the female deacon take out a map drawn by an unknown animal skin from the waist card and hand it to Tianxing.

After Tianxing took it in his hand, he saw that the map on the animal skin was extremely finely drawn, and even which mountain peak was easy to collect and what medicinal herbs were drawn very clearly. Tianxing was about to turn around and leave, when the deacon behind him continued: "Senior brother~! Don't blame Senior Sister for not reminding you, did you bring the mining pick?"

Tianxing shook his head, and the deaconess took out a mine pickaxe out of thin air from the waist card and said, "Oh~!Three spirit stones~!"

Tianxing glanced at the mining pickaxe in the woman's hand, and said with a painful face: "Senior sister, let's get cheaper~! I'm really running out of money~!"

The woman smiled faintly, "Okay~! Friendship price two spirit stones~......"

After Tianxing walked out of the hall, he condensed a small cloud of mist with his spiritual power, touched the only three spirit stones left in the waist card, and flew away with a helpless face of the twilight technique. Standing in the clouds, the star controlled the clouds under his feet according to the map he had just obtained, and after flying over several mountains all the way, he finally landed in a small valley.

There were dark caves at the foot of the mountain not far in front of him, and from time to time there were some people wearing religious uniforms outside the caves, carrying a pickaxe, going in and out of the cave, as if the miners were busy.

According to the instructions of the mission, in front of a mining cave, Tianxing looked inside, and he couldn't see anything in the dark, and when Tianxing was a little at a loss, he saw a black hand on his shoulder, although the strength was not large, but it startled Tianxing.

"Boy~!New here?" the man looked at Tianxing playfully.

"Hehe, interesting~!Go ahead, before dark, dig out ten catties of ore in the cave, otherwise the mission will be invalid~!" the man said with a light patting of Tianxing's shoulder.

Tianxing secretly thought in his heart: "Ten catties is not much~!"

"Hey~!New boy, do you have a pickaxe?" the young man asked.

"There is~There is~!" Tianxing replied immediately.

"Yes, it can't be bought, right?" the man asked, sneering.

"If you don't buy it, will you give it away for free?" asked Tianxing.

"Of course, it's free, all new disciples can give a mine pickaxe for free, you won't know it~!" The young man smiled and threw the mine pickaxe in his hand in front of Tianxing, shook his head and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Qin is afraid that I will get a lot of benefits from you newcomers~!My name is Zhen Xiwa, and I am the deacon in charge here, if you have any questions, just ask me, and by the way, I will send you a map, oh~!" As she spoke, Xiwa took out a map made of animal skins, which was exactly the same as the one Tianxing had bought before, handed it to Tianxing, and said, "Take it, what are you still doing in a daze? You won't even buy a map, right?"

Seeing Tianxing's expressionless stunned appearance, Xiwa knew that she had guessed correctly, and smiled helplessly: "Oops~!Brother, you are really simple enough~!Okay, senior brother hereby reminds you, that Senior Sister Qin is the granddaughter of the deacon hall master, so she is a little arrogant, what about you~, if you suffer a loss, you will suffer a loss, as the so-called eat a trench and grow a wisdom, and all the female disciples of this Ten Thousand Souls Sect, don't mess with them, they are either cultivation wizards, or they have backers, and they are all masters with doors and ways~!

Tianxing put the map and mine pickaxe given by Xiwa into the waist card and nodded, and walked to the mine behind him, and the eight spirit stones were deceived like this~!

Coming to the cave and moving all the way, Tianxing actually found that a one-person high tunnel had been dug out of the cave, and there were dark yellow spars placed on both sides of the stone wall a few feet apart.

When he came to the bottom of the cave and saw that there was no feasible way ahead, Tianxing raised the mine pickaxe with both hands and chiseled it to the wall with all his might, "Bang~!", the stone wall in front of him immediately splashed everywhere, and Tianxing only felt that the tiger's mouth between his hands was numb, and under a huge rebound force, the mine pickaxe almost came out of his hand.

Tianxing was stunned for a moment, leaned down in disbelief, and then looked at the stone wall in front of him with a faint and dim yellow line, only to find that the blue-black stone wall tentacles in front of him were cold and smooth, as hard as fine iron, and the position smashed by the mine pickaxe did not have a trace at all~!

Tianxing couldn't help but gasp, "What's going on?What kind of ore is so hard~!"

After a closer inspection, there was no result, and Tianxing was a little unconvinced, and then smashed the pickaxe in his hand towards the stone wall, but when he was panting and sweating, there were still no chisel marks on the stone wall.

"What kind of stone is this~!" Tianxing couldn't believe it, looked at the stone wall, and then looked at the mine pickaxe in his hand, and suddenly, he found that the pickaxe head, after a smash just now, there was no trace of friction at all, and the tentacles were like ice.

The puzzled Tianxing rubbed the pickaxe with his hand, and suddenly felt that the top of the pickaxe seemed to be engraved with some patterns~!

"Could it be that this mining pickaxe is what Phantom Xiang once talked about, talisman utensils and the like?" Tianxing tentatively injected the spiritual power in his body into the mineral pickaxe in his hand, and sure enough, after a while, he saw that the surface spirit pattern of the pickaxe head was bright, and a layer of soft white light emerged, wrapping the pickaxe head tightly.

Tianxing stood up again, raised the pickaxe and smashed it towards the stone wall again, 'Click~!' The sound was crisp, and a small crack appeared between the mountain wall.

As soon as Tianxing was overjoyed, he raised the mining pickaxe again and again, and smashed it towards the mountain wall in front of him, and the tiny crack began to crack gradually, and when this crack was about a foot long, Tianxing was so tired that he couldn't use the slightest spiritual power.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, running the 'Pu Yuan Jue' to make the five elements of spiritual power in his body grow together, recovering his spiritual power, and after the qi power was restored, he injected the spiritual power into the mine pickaxe again, raised his hands and smashed towards the stone wall.

In this way, smashing the chisel again and again, Tianxing didn't know how long it took, but he felt that his arms were swollen and painful, and there were a lot of blisters in his palms.

Tianxing endured the pain, and the spiritual power in his body was injected into the mine pickaxe again, and he swung the mine pickaxe to smash the stone wall again, he couldn't remember how many times he rested, and how many times he chiseled the wall, but he just wanted to persistently chisel down a ten-kilogram stone from the stone wall in front of him to deliver the task.

With the continuous efforts of Tianxing, finally with the sound of 'pop~!', a piece of ore was chiseled off the stone wall by it and grunted to the ground~!

Tianxing was overjoyed, waved the ore in his hand into his waist card, and walked out of the mine with heavy steps.

The sky outside was pitch black, and there was no one to be seen, "Huh, is today's mission invalid?" Tianxing said with some disappointment.

Although he got this ore, he can re-claim the task and deliver it again tomorrow, but for Tianxing's persistent heart, after all, there is still a sense of loss, and he doesn't want the mission to fail~!

"Yo he~! came out?" Zhen Xiwa's figure walked out of the forest on the side, looking Tianxing up and down, "It's quite persistent~!

Tianxing nodded, took out the piece of ore and handed it to Zhen Xiwa, "I really didn't expect that mining would be so laborious~!"

Xiwa took the ore and checked it, then looked at the sky and said, "Bring your token~!"

Tianxing acted according to his words, took out the waist card and handed it to Xiwa, only to see Xiwa take the hand, press his hand on it, and after a while, "hum~!" of a vibration, Tianxing's waist card flashed a layer of fluorescence, and then disappeared, showing a 'one' word on the back of its waist card, and the contribution points were picked.
