Chapter 45: Red Crystal Valley
"Chijing Valley?" Zhao Yi was puzzled.
"It's a valley of flames, named after the production of a spirit stone called Terracotta. It was discovered a few years ago by an elder in our sect. Ye Xingxiong explained.
Chijing Stone Zhao Yi knew, it was a kind of fire attribute spirit stone, which had a lot of benefits for the cultivation of fire attribute martial artists, and could greatly improve their cultivation speed! The price of Chijing Stone was generally more than five times that of the same level of Xuanjing, that is to say, a piece of low-grade Chijing was worth at least five pieces of lower-grade Xuanjing.
"So what is the mission of Chijing Valley?" Zhao Yi asked.
"Mining red crystal!" Ye Xingxiong said.
"Is it dangerous to mine red crystal?" Zhao Yi wondered.
"Don't worry, wait until I tell you about the situation in Chijing Valley, and you'll know!" Ye Xingxiong said with a smile, "Chijing Valley is a Flame Valley, and it is extremely hot all year round, even if it is a high-level martial artist of the Innate Realm, it will not be able to withstand it if he stays in that environment all year round." The interior of the Red Crystal Valley is divided into different areas by the elders of the sect, and each area corresponds to different levels of tasks. Among them, the lowest-level task is also a three-star yellow level. ”
"There are many fire-attribute demon beasts living in the Red Crystal Valley, these demon beasts are full of manic and fierce aura, and they are extremely aggressive, and they often attack the disciples who go to mine the red crystal. The elders divided the area according to the strength of the demon beasts living in the Red Crystal Valley. Because the elders considered that these demon beasts had a strong training effect on the disciples of the sect, they did not exterminate them, but used them together with this Chijing Valley as a mission location to hone us!" Zhang Lu continued Ye Xingxiong's words, his voice was like a yellow warbler out of the valley, and he turned people gracefully.
"And if the amount of red crystals mined from the Red Crystal Valley requires the task, you can receive the task reward, if the amount of red crystals mined exceeds the mission requirements, you can either stay and use it yourself, or you can go to the Daizong Peak Spirit Pavilion to sell it, exchange it for Xuanjing, and use it for cultivation. If you fail to meet the number of tasks, you will be punished for not being able to complete the tasks, but the red crystals mined will belong to you!" Ye Xingxiong said.
The exchange ratio for completing the sect's quest to the red crystal stone is ten to one, and the price of the red crystal stone in the Spirit Pavilion is five to one. That is to say, if the requirement of a task is to mine 100 pieces of low-grade red crystal, then after completing the task, hand over 100 pieces of lower-grade red crystal to the task hall, and you can get a reward of 1,000 pieces of low-grade red crystal.
And if only fifty pieces of lower-grade red crystal were mined, then if you went to the Spirit Pavilion to sell them, you could only sell two hundred and fifty pieces of lower-grade Xuanjing. Of course, if you don't complete this quest the first time, you can accumulate them and deliver them together with the mined red crystal after receiving this quest next time.
"In the Red Crystal Valley, in addition to the fierce and extremely aggressive demon beasts, there is also a fire poison in the air there, if you stay in the Red Crystal Valley for too long, you will be infected with fire poison and be miserable!" Ye Xingxiong thought for a while and said again.
"I see!" After listening to Ye Xingxiong and Zhang Lu's introductions, Zhao Yi had a strong curiosity about Chijing Valley, and he wanted to see it very much, "Then when will we leave for Chijing Valley?"
"If you don't have anything to prepare, then we can go now after we receive the mission!" Ye Xingxiong said with a smile.
"Then let's go!" Zhao Yi bowed slightly.
The three of them walked together and came to a piece of yellow jade, looking for the rice paper with the yellow-level three-star Chijing Valley mission written on it.
After a while, Zhang Lu pointed to a piece of rice paper on the jade bi and said, "Brother Xing, you see, this task seems to be just right. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi and Ye Xingxiong both looked over and saw that it was written on the rice paper:
Mission: Mine 1,000 pieces of lower grade red crystal with the Red Crystal Valley.
Mission Level: Yellow 3 stars.
Task reward: 10,000 pieces of low-grade Xuanjing.
Suggestion: It should be taken by two or more Innate Realm Eightfold Martial Artists or one Innate Realm Eightfold Peak Martial Artist or above.
Seeing this task, Zhao Yi and Ye Xingxiong's eyes lit up, and the three of them looked at each other, "It's decided that it's it!"
After picking up the task, the three of them went down the mountain to the Red Crystal Valley together!
Half a month later, Zhao Yi and the three of them came to a crimson valley, which was the Chijing Valley. As soon as they arrived here, the three of them felt that the surrounding environment was a lot hotter, and even their mood became inexplicably irritable.
Chijing Valley is located in the north of Taishan, covering an extremely wide area, you can also see a silent volcanic crater around, in the south of Chijing Valley is connected to a relatively desolate small city, above Chijing Valley, exudes a thick heat, at a glance, even the air is baked and distorted.
The small city to the south of the Chijing Valley, called Chijing City, Chijing City was established outside the entrance of the Chijing Valley, and it was the place where the Xingyun Sect guarded the strength of the Chijing Valley. And if you want to enter the Red Crystal Valley, you must pass through the Red Crystal City and enter the valley from the north gate of the Red Crystal City.
In Chijing City, in addition to the two elders, there are dozens of deacons and several core disciples here, guarding Chijing Valley, which is actually a task within the sect!
Enter Chijing City from the south gate, and after passing through Chijing City, you will come to the north gate, where two deacons guard the entrance to Chijing Valley at the north gate.
"Please show me the task list and enter the valley with the task list!" said one of the deacons to the three of them.
"Now, this is our task list!" Ye Xingxiong took out the rice paper from the space ring and handed it to the deacon.
"Well, Ye Xingxiong, Zhang Lu, Zhao Yi, hmm? Zhao Yi is only a fivefold cultivator of the Innate Realm, does he dare to come here?" the deacon glanced at the information on the task list and asked.
"Although his cultivation is only the fifth level of the Innate Realm, his true strength is far beyond this, otherwise he would be sent to death if he came here!" Ye Xingxiong said with a smile.
"This is also!" The deacon nodded and handed Ye Xingxiong a space ring, "This is a second-order space ring, which is used to store the mined red crystal, okay, you guys go in!" After speaking, he got out of the way.
Ye Xingxiong took the space ring, put it on his hand, and entered the Red Crystal Valley with Zhao Yi and Zhang Lu through the north gate of Chijing City.
"What a rich fire attribute heaven and earth aura!" As soon as he entered the Chijing Valley, Zhao Yi felt that this place was different from the outside world, "But there is also a kind of energy in this heaven and earth aura, which makes the heaven and earth aura here become violent and aggressive, and it is difficult to be absorbed and refined!"
"Yes, this energy is fire poison, if it weren't for these fire poisons, this Chijing Valley would actually be a treasure land for the cultivation of fire attribute martial artists!" Ye Xingxiong sighed, "Forget it, don't talk about this, let's go to mine Chijing first, this Chijing Valley has been divided into regions, let's just go directly to the yellow-level three-star area!"
"There are often demon beasts in the Red Crystal Valley to attack, let's divide the labor! Before, Lulu and I, one mining red crystal, the other guarding against the attack of demon beasts, with my own strength, to deal with the demon beasts in this yellow-level three-star area, there is still some trouble, combined with the strength of me and Lulu, you can easily deal with the demon beasts, but the progress of mining red crystal is slow, now with your joining, the two of us are dealing with the demon beasts at the same time, the problem should not be big, and Lulu is mining the red crystal with all his might, it will be very smooth!" After coming to the yellow-level three-star area, Ye Xingxiong smiled and suggested to Zhao Yi, "And when there are no demon beasts to attack, we can also help mine red crystal." ”
"Yes, I have no opinion!" Zhao Yi naturally had no opinion on this.
The three of them did what they said, and soon they dug a cave in the valley and began to mine red crystal!
The task of mining red crystal has a time limit, and if it cannot be completed within the specified time limit, the task will be regarded as a failure! And the task that Zhao Yi and the three of them received has a time limit of one month. As for the time when the mission started, it was calculated from the time they entered the Red Crystal Valley!
Just when Zhao Yi and his party were mining red crystal stone in the Red Crystal Valley, the inner disciple area of Aolai Peak was in a small courtyard.
The powerful momentum suddenly erupted, and several inner disciples who passed by this small courtyard felt tremendous pressure.
"This is Senior Brother Ji Mo's small courtyard, this breath, could it be that Senior Brother Ji Mo has broken through to the Spiritual Energy Realm?" said one of the inner disciples with a shocked expression.
Senior Brother Ji Mo and the two senior brothers Jing Jue and Xia Xingchen are known as the three top disciples of the Inner Gate, Xia Xingchen and Jing Jue have become core disciples one after another, and now Senior Brother Ji Mo has also broken through the spiritual energy realm, presumably it will not be long before he becomes a core disciple!" his companion said.
"Hmm!"
When Ji Mo came out of the pass, his wild aura bloomed unreservedly, wanton and flamboyant: "Hmph! I didn't expect to break through to the spiritual energy realm in such a retreat, presumably Jing Jue and Xia Xingchen have become core disciples! It seems that I am temporarily lagging behind, but I will catch up soon! But before that, there is still one person to solve!" A cold glint flashed in Ji Mo's eyes, and then his body moved, and he disappeared into the small courtyard!
