Chapter 379-381: Tough Skeleton

readx; The reason why pine cones have the effect of immortality, in fact, this is also a matter of course, when celebrating the birthday of the elderly, pine is often used to describe it, such as pine crane prolonging life, which is not without a history. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The fruits of the innate spiritual roots actually contain a large amount of spiritual energy, even if it is a gourd seed, but Xin Yun intends to refine it into a magic weapon, so he can't take it out.

After thinking about it, Xin Yun nodded violently and said, "Okay, let's change ...... I just don't know, how much Yimu aura do you need to exchange for this pine cone?"

Faced with Xin Yun's question, the old pine was silent for a while, and then spoke: "Since you know everything, you should naturally understand that it takes 10,000 years for this pine cone to produce one, which is precious and abnormal, so it ...... Unless the Otogi aura you provide is more effective to me than the pine cone, I won't change it anyway. ”

Hearing Lao Song's words, Xin Yun nodded clearly, this pine cone is a treasure, not only is it useful for them to eat it, but Lao Song himself is also useful when he eats it, just like Zhenyuan Daxian will also eat ginseng fruit.

Since you want to change, you have to show sincerity, if the exchange item is not as valuable as the original item of the person, then the fool will exchange it with you.

After thinking about it, Xin Yun said worriedly: "Say, how much Yimu aura does it take to exchange for a pine cone." ”

Facing Xin Yun's questioning, Lao Song was silent for a while, and after calculating, he spoke: "With those Yimu essences just now, you still need ten units of Yimu essences to exchange for a pine cone." ”

"Hiss......" Hearing Lao Song's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but gasp, this is too terrifying, the Yimu aura released just now was accumulated by Lu'er in the past half a year.

The so-called Otogi aura, in fact, is the Dan Qi that floats out during alchemy, it is not very useful, it is usually scattered with the wind, but for this old pine, everything is very different, the effect of this Otogi essence on him is definitely better than that of the pine cone, and in the same proportion, Otogi Reiki is the best.

Originally, this Yimu Spiritual Qi Dispersed Gourd was also needed, but Xin Yun had already planned to refine the red gourd into a magic weapon, and the way to improve it had also changed because of this, this Yimu Spiritual Qi was basically useless, although it was also beneficial to keep it, but the effect was not large, and it was negligible.

Now, this old pine wants to exchange pine cones for Yimu aura, which is equivalent to exchanging the baby for Xin Yun's useless garbage, although the amount of exchange is larger, but what people give is absolutely comparable, even value-for-money!

After careful calculation, Xin Yun roughly calculated that these Yimu spiritual qi accumulated in six months, ten times, that would be sixty months, close to six years! Although the time is a little longer, but people's pine cones are treasures that bloom once every three thousand years and bear fruit once every three thousand years! In comparison, these six years are not even a fraction.

However, since it is a transaction, there is room for bargaining, after thinking for a while, Xin Yun's heart moved, and then he said: "You wait here for a while, and I will be back immediately!"

While speaking, Xin Yun opened the Taiji diagram, and when the golden bridge passed, Xin Yun disappeared on the golden bridge in an instant, and at the same time, Xin Yun appeared in the fairyland of the pot, and without saying a word, he directly dragged over a water pot and ran towards the spring water in the center.

As mentioned earlier, the main vein of the heaven in the pot is expressed in the form of spring water, and a spring water that shoots out hundreds of meters high is actually the outlet of the earth's leyline.

Running to the spring, Xin Yun quickly picked up a large jar, then turned around and ran back to Jinqiao, don't underestimate a jar of spring water, this is an elite Kwai water that extends from the bottom of the sea, and there is a large amount of spiritual energy condensed in it.

Soon, through the golden bridge, Xin Yun returned to the Shoushan Cave Heaven, ran directly to Lao Song with the jar, and poured all the water in the jar, the water in the jar was not much, once it touched the ground, it penetrated in an instant.

"Ahh......h What kind of water is this!

Facing Lao Song's surprised inquiry, Xin Yun smiled secretly and said with a smile: "You don't care what kind of water it is, I just ask if you need it!

Facing Xin Yun's inquiry, Lao Song said eagerly: "Of course I need to, of course I like it, how can there be trees that don't like water, let alone water with such abundant aura, this is simply the sweetest spring water!"

Seeing Lao Song's satisfied look, Xin Yun smiled and said, "Okay, tell me about it, if I use this kind of water and add Yimu aura, how much can I change for a pine cone!"

"This ......" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Lao Song couldn't help but hesitate for a long time...... Lao Song said categorically: "We pine trees don't need too much water, and if there is too much water, it will rot the roots, so ...... I only need ten jars of water like this every day, and if you are willing to provide it for a long time, I am willing to reduce the consumption of Otogi Spiritual Qi by one percent for every year of supply!"

Hearing Lao Song's words, Xin Yun made a calculation, and it was obvious that he ...... Although this spiritual water is good, but for Lao Song, it is equivalent to a delicious snack, he lives as well as no water, as for the aura in the water, the effect is not great, how much aura can be contained in ten jars of water?

After all, Lao Song is a wood-based Yang creature, and there can't be too much water, which limits his need for water, so ...... You can only consume a maximum of ten cans of water a day, so if you calculate it, you can already take care of your home if you cut it by half.

After thinking about it, Xin Yun said categorically: "In this way, we will provide you with three years of spiritual water, and then give you six parts of Yimu spiritual energy, and you give us a pine cone, how about it?"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Lao Song hesitated slightly, but quickly agreed, to be honest, this is more than a transaction, Lao Song is really a loss, and a big loss, but considering that they are neighbors of each other, and he needs to trouble Xin Yun and others so much in the future, he can only agree.

After thinking about it, Lao Song said categorically: "Okay, as long as you suppress the fire eye inside, and then promise to give me six Yimu spiritual qi in the next three years, and give me ten jars of spiritual water every day, I will give you a pine cone!"

Hearing Lao Song's words, Xin Yun happily agreed, in order to get the pine cone as soon as possible, Xin Yun didn't dare to slack off, since the entrance to the cave has been blocked, the next thing to do is to go around the fire eye.

In the center of the first cave Tianzheng, there is a circular mountain range with a diameter of ten kilometers, and in the middle of the circular mountain range, there is a huge fire eye with a diameter of more than ten meters, and a tongue of fire several hundred meters high roars out, accompanied by the jetting of flames, the surrounding crater continues to condense.

In fact, the surrounding craters are made of immeasurable red copper, and no matter how much is extracted, it will soon condense new red copper again, and it will never be harvested.

However, the problem now is how to suppress this fire eye, if it can't be suppressed, the surrounding temperature is too high to be mined.

"Ahh

The next moment...... Without waiting for Xin Yun's order, Lu'er reached out and pointed to the trick, and in an instant...... The red gourd plug flew out in an instant, and with Lu'er's control, the red gourd produced a huge suction force and went straight to the flame.

Under everyone's gaze, a cyclone appeared at the mouth of the red gourd, which instantly pulled the tongue of fire hundreds of meters high, and roared into the red gourd.

While frantically devouring the purple fire in the center of the earth, the red gourd slowly approached the eye of fire, and about a minute later, the red gourd hung high above the eye of fire, and the purple fire in the center of the earth spewed out by the eye of fire directly jumped into the red gourd and disappeared.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Xin Yun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he didn't know what Lu'er was doing at all, and when he was puzzled, Lu'er said loudly: "Quick! Release the Heaven and Earth Seal, and suppress this fire mouth first!"

Hearing Lu'er's words, how dare Xin Yun slack off, although she doesn't know what she wants to do for the time being, but after being in contact for so long, this girl's understanding of Xin Yun is even more detailed with Xin Yun himself, especially the various magic weapons on his body.

As soon as the Heaven and Earth Seal made a move, Xin Yun suddenly felt that something was wrong, although this Heaven and Earth Seal can be enlarged now, it can be put to the size of a person's head at most, how can it block this fire mouth with a diameter of more than ten meters!

Just as he was confused, Lu'er shouted eagerly: "Quick! Release the Chaos Ding, suppress the fire mouth, and then put the Heaven and Earth Seal on the Chaos Ding, so that with the help of the purple fire in the center of the earth, it can be automatically refined!"

Hearing Lu'er's words, Xin Yun was slightly stunned, and then ecstatic, without saying a word, he directly sacrificed the Chaos Ding, this guy can be enlarged, the Chaos Ding that has been repaired to twenty percent can be enlarged to ten meters in diameter, and the fire mouth is simply tightly sealed! If the fire eye is bigger, it really can't be covered.

With Xin Yun's movements, a four-legged square tripod with a diameter of more than ten meters appeared directly above the fire eye out of thin air, and the four tripod feet were placed on the ground around the fire eye, and the belly of the tripod was aimed at the fire eye below.

Then, with a wave of his right hand, Xin Yun directly suspended the Heaven and Earth Seal above Dingkou, seeing this scene, Lu'er suddenly stopped the action of extracting the purple fire in the center of the earth, and the next moment...... The surging and furious purple fire in the center of the earth rushed out again.

In the violent sound of "...... swoop", the purple fire in the center of the earth violently hit the belly of the Chaos Ding, and the fierce flames snaked straight up along the belly of the Ding, trying to rush out from all sides of the Ding.

Seeing this scene, Xin Yun smiled, pinched the seal, and ...... in an instant Around the Chaos Ding, nine fire openings were opened in an instant, and the flames that bypassed the belly of the Ding were instantly sucked in, and no trace of flame could jump into the sky above the Chaos Ding!

Under the impact of the fierce flames in the center of the earth, the Chaos Ding got the momentum, and it automatically ran out without the need for people to control it, and the purple flames burst out of the Ding's mouth, constantly refining the heaven and earth seal suspended above!

Tempered by the Chaos Purple Fire, the Heaven and Earth Seal felt the breath of chaos, and violently emitted a ray of light, and the next moment ...... The nine jade dragons entangled on the seal body broke away from the seal body one after another and circled around the Chaos Ding.

Seeing this scene, Xin Yun was overjoyed, and waved his right hand again, and the Chaos Ding suddenly looked in three directions, poking out three long strip-shaped inlets, as long as the mined red copper was thrown in, it would naturally be sucked into the Chaos Ding for refining, and after returning to the innate nature, it would erupt from the mouth of the Ding, and the nine jade dragons on it would naturally swallow it one by one and refine it into the seal of heaven and earth.

As the eye of fire was blocked, the excess flames were sucked into the Chaos Ding, and the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and the surrounding red crater mountain range, which was originally baked, gradually cooled down, but even if it cooled, the crater was still red, and it was originally a mountain range condensed by red copper.

But the next thing is not easy to do, although the conditions for mining are already in place, but now the question is, who should be responsible for mining?

Is it possible to hire miners from the outside world? This is definitely not possible, first of all, it is a matter of loyalty, this is a private existence, it must not be leaked, you can't arrest people and not let them go back, right? This kind of thing, Xin Yun still doesn't want to do, Longmen is definitely not a demon dragon clan!

Moreover, if you want to mine such a large copper mountain, the manpower required is too great, not to mention tens of thousands of people, and if you want to strive for the fastest speed, you need at least 100,000 people, so many people live here, clothing, food, housing, use, all kinds of expenses are simply too great.

I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't come up with a way, in desperation, Xin Yun had to ask for help from everyone, the so-called three stinkers, Zhuge Liang, one person can't do it, but if you mobilize everyone to think about it, you will definitely come up with a way.

Faced with Xin Yun's problem, everyone fell into contemplation, but after thinking for a long time, they never got the point, since they want to mine, they must need people, and since they need people, they must eat, wear, live, and use, which is basically unsolvable.

After a long silence, he finally ...... Yan Qingqing said in a low voice: "Maybe, I have some way, but whether this method is feasible or not, I haven't counted yet." ”

"En?" Hearing Yan Qingqing's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but have a puzzled face, she actually had a way!

Under Xin Yun's gaze, Yan Qingqing reached out with his right hand, grabbed a Dutian Hades Flag, and said in a deep voice: "This is a Dutian Hades Flag, this flag is very strange, every time you use this Dutian Hades Banner to kill a master above the amethyst level, one of them can give birth to a silver skeleton, and every time you kill a diamond-level master, you can give birth to ten silver-colored skeletons, and now there are thirteen silver skeletons accumulated here!"

As he spoke, Yan waved his big hand, and between the black flags, thirteen silver light clusters floated out of the black flag and landed on the ground, and where the light fell, thirteen pale silver skeletons climbed up from the ground one after another.

The silver skeleton wasn't really silver, his bones were still white, but the bones were covered with a layer of silver crystalline substance, so it looked like silver bones.

While observing, Yan Qingqing continued: "These silver skeletons have the strength of a silver star, they don't need to eat or sleep, and they don't know how to work, they can work endlessly!"

"Wow!" Hearing Yan Qingqing's words, Yi Luoxiang's eyes lit up excitedly, and she screamed in surprise, obviously...... From these skeletons, this girl must have come up with a lot of usage, from now on, this girl has a lot of resources, no need to eat, no need to sleep, never know tired skeletons, this is really ......

Just thinking about it, Ming Xuan frowned and said, "This silver skeleton is really good, but the number is too small, there are only thirteen in total, and the number of people we need is in the hundreds of thousands!"

Facing Ming Xuan's questioning, Yan Qingqing smiled calmly and said, "Of course it won't be now, but as long as we use this Heavenly Hades King Banner to kill some enemies, won't we be able to accumulate enough?"

"Hiss......" Hearing Yan Qingqing's words, Ming Xuan and Yi Luoxiang gasped at the same time, 100,000 silver skeletons, what does that mean? That means that there will be 100,000 amethyst-level masters, or 10,000 diamond-level masters will die under the banner of this Heavenly Hades!

However, such a cold and cruel thing, Yan Qingqing said it so plainly, so calmly, it really deserves to be cultivated by the Demon Dragon Clan, and he completely ignores life, and he is so ruthless.

Among all of them, only Xin Yun and Rove did not change color, Xin Yun had long known Yan Qing's style, and Rove was excited, in fact...... He is also the same as Yan Qingqing, a lawless guy who doesn't take human life seriously.

While thinking about it, Yan Qingqing's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Okay, the flesh and energy of the twelve guys I killed just now have been absorbed and transformed, and now there are twelve more silver-level skeletons!"

As he spoke, Yan Qingqing waved the black flag again, and the next moment...... Twelve silver clusters of light quickly floated out and landed on the ground one by one, and soon ...... Twelve brand-new silver skeletons slowly rose from the ground.

Looking at the purple skeleton, Xin Yun couldn't help but sigh, shook his head and said: "The idea is really good, but it's a pity that it's difficult to realize now, although I don't mind killing a few more people, but this Xuanying White Bone Banner, in the case of repairing two layers, can only summon a maximum of 99 silver skeletons." ”

"Ahh......h Although this magic weapon has been refined by her, she does not know much about the essence of this magic weapon.

Smiling slightly, Xin Yun continued: "In the case of repairing the first layer, this Xuanying White Bone Banner can summon 9 bronze-level skeletons, in the case of repairing the second layer, it can summon 99 silver-level skeletons, correspondingly, the third layer is 999 gold-level skeletons, and the repairing fourth layer is 9999 crystal-level skeletons, and each repair layer, the skeleton level that can be condensed can be increased by one order, and the number is increased tenfold!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yan Qingqing couldn't help but feel disappointed, but he quickly recovered, in fact, this Xuanming White Bone Banner can definitely not be considered weak, once it is completely repaired, with this banner alone, it can already be invincible and the world, but it is just ...... It's really hard to fix it now.

After thinking about it, Xin Yun hurriedly investigated, and after Xin Yun's investigation, he was surprised to learn that it was only a little bit of time before the third floor was repaired, how could it be so fast!

With just a slight thought, Xin Yun quickly got the answer, the first layer is indeed difficult to repair, even if it is stolen, it will take a long time, but ...... In fact, most of this time is spent on the road.

And now, the Taiji diagram has opened the second layer, and it can already be traversed over a long distance, and it is 108,000 miles under it, and the five brothers take turns to perform it, and a million miles is only a matter of a short time, so it ...... Since the Taiji Diagram was restored with two layers, the efficiency of the five brothers has increased more than tenfold.

Since the efficiency has been improved, the five brothers have stolen faster, sometimes even patronizing three or four warehouses a day, sweeping away the hardware inside, and now silver, copper, iron, and tin have all met the requirements of repairing the three layers, but there is still a big gap in the gold, after all, ...... Gold is the rarest of the five metals.

As long as it is repaired to the third layer, it can summon 999 gold-level skeletons, and now what Xin Yun wants to know is how efficient this silver-level skeleton is to mine, if it can, maybe it is really a solution!

Looking at the 25 silver skeletons, Xin Yun said to Yan lightly in anticipation, "Okay, you now order them to mine red copper, I want to see how efficient their mining is!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yan nodded lightly, and with a wave of the banner, the twenty-five silver skeletons moved instantly, one by one, extremely flexible, unusually fast, and rushed to the side of the ring-shaped red copper mountain.

Under everyone's gaze, 25 silver skeletons poked out their right hands at the same time, and the silver light shone, and a silver mining shovel pickaxe extended from their bony hands, and then ...... Twenty-five skeletons clanged and mined with a clang.

"Jingle Bell...... Jingling...... With the crisp sound ......of hunger, the clumps of cuprite were quickly mined, and then ...... The skeletons picked up pieces of red copper the size of their heads, and quickly ran to the inlet of Chaos Ding, throwing the red copper ore into it.

With the throwing of cuprite, the Chaos Ding roared violently, and soon ...... In the direction of Dingkou, nine pieces of crimson, fist-sized innate spirit copper were thrown, and as soon as the innate spirit copper was thrown, the nine jade dragons above swooped down, opened their dragon mouths one after another, and swallowed it in one gulp, and at the same time, the heaven and earth seal shone with cyan light.

"Damn!" Seeing this scene, Xin Yun couldn't help but scream, these silver skeletons are really too strong, the hardness of this red copper is very terrifying, but under the mining of these skeletons, only a dozen strokes can be deducted from a piece, this speed!

Thinking about it, Yi Luoxiang turned her head excitedly, looked at Yan Qingqing and said: "These little skeletons are very strong, they even have the strength of the silver level!

Hearing Yi Luoxiang's words, Yan Qingqing frowned, shook his head and said, "No, although these silver skeletons have the strength of the silver rank, if they are taken out, their combat power is restricted by their bodies, and they are very weak. ”

Speaking of this, Yan Qingqing paused slightly, and then continued: "Although these silver skeletons are also silver-rank strength, if they are against ordinary silver-level dragon riders, a dragon rider of the same rank can easily slaughter hundreds of millions of skeletons. ”

"En......" nodded helplessly, Xin Yun smiled bitterly and said: "That's right, although the energy displayed by these silver skeletons is also silver-level, but the body is a half-dragon and half-human skeleton, although the quality of the energy released is not low, but the amount is too small, and it can't fly, the defense is weak, and a bite of dragon breath can sweep away thousands of eight hundred, there is no actual combat effect." ”

"No, no, no......" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luoxiang shook her head and said: "Didn't you say it, the biggest feature of these skeletons is that they are immortal, even if they are broken up, as long as the Xuanming White Bone Banner is waved, they can be resurrected in an instant, it can be said that they can't be killed, they can't be slaughtered, and they can't be slaughtered...... After all, their attacks are silver-tiered, and they can hurt opponents of the same rank, and if the number is large enough, they can definitely extinguish any master of the same rank with the Sea of Bone tactics!"

"This ......" Hearing Yi Luoxiang's words, Xin Yun and Yan Qingqing's eyes lit up at the same time, yes...... Although these skeletons are a little weaker, their attacks and defenses are all silver-level, but the amount is a little smaller, and the defense is easy to defeat, although the strength of the attack is good, but the amount is too small.

For example, if a giant dragon can explode a hill with a dragon's breath, a skeleton's blow can only explode a stone the size of a person, although the substance that can be exploded is the same, but the destructive power is too different, which is actually the difference between humans and dragons.

While thinking about it, Yi Luoxiang continued excitedly: "Moreover, isn't this only two layers repaired? It won't be long before it can be repaired to the third layer, and at that time, the number of skeletons will increase tenfold, reaching thousands, as long as the problem of flight can be solved, this is absolutely terrifying!"

"Hehe......" Looking at Yi Luoxiang with a smile, Xin Yun said, "En...... Maybe you're right, but for me, the biggest role of these skeletons is to help me mine these red copper, and I don't need them to help me fight, as long as I can mine enough red copper, hehe...... Then the future will be terrible!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luoxiang smiled and said, "Of course, but ...... After all, this is also a resource we have, usually used for mining, if needed, it can also be pulled out for use, even if it can't deal with opponents of the same level, but if it is used to deal with stragglers of the lower order, this is irreplaceable!"

......Hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked at Yi Luoxiang in amazement, this Nizi's head is so easy to use, she thought of it so far!

That's right, as far as Longmen is concerned, there is no shortage of masters, but the middle and low end are extremely scarce, and those **-year-old children will have a long time to grow up, before that...... Once you encounter a group battle, then Longmen will be in trouble.

Once all the masters are entangled, although the strength of those stragglers is average, but to engage in destruction, it is very terrifying, now with these skeletons, as long as they continue to strengthen, it is really suitable to use them to solve those stragglers in the future.

For a while, there was silence in the whole space, everyone looked at Yi Luoxiang with admiration, with the increase of contact, her wisdom was revealed bit by bit, anytime, anywhere, she can associate everything with the construction of the dragon gate, once there is a need, she can definitely apply all resources to the limit!

In the silence, only the twenty-five silver skeletons were still busy, constantly mining the red spirit copper, and constantly throwing the mined spirit copper into their mouths.

"This ......" At this time, a low voice sounded, hearing this voice, everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look over, and as far as they could see, the old pine didn't know when, appeared not far behind him.

Seeing Lao Song, everyone remembered the agreement just now, Xin Yun jumped over for the first time, facing the oncoming Xin Yun, Lao Song didn't say much, and directly opened his mouth, a pine cone that exuded colorful light floated out of his mouth and jumped straight towards Xin Yun.

Volleying his hand in the air, Xin Yun grabbed the huge, human-sized multicolored pine cone, and at the same time, the old pine said: "There are five pine nuts in one pine cone, you happen to have one for each person, be careful when eating, find a safe, secluded corner, so as not to be disturbed." ”

Looking at the colorful pine cone in his hand excitedly, Xin Yun nodded and said, "Well, no problem...... From tomorrow onwards, I will send someone to help you transport ten barrels of spiritual springs every day, and as for Yimu Spiritual Qi, it will also be delivered on the first day of a month, what do you think?"

Smiling and nodding, Lao Song said with satisfaction: "Well, okay...... I'm usually at the original entrance, if you want to find me, go there!" As he spoke, the old pine gradually sank to the ground and disappeared.

Looking at the pine cone in his hand, Xin Yun sent out a burst of energy, and in an instant...... The pine cones slowly spread out in all directions, revealing five pine nuts the size of Chengren's palm!

Red, yellow, blue, green, purple...... There are a total of five colors, exuding a refreshing fragrance, taking a deep breath, Xin Yun directly picked up the blue pine nuts among them, and then said to everyone: "Okay, there are four pine nuts here, everyone happens to have one!"

In the face of Xin Yun's gift, no one was polite to him, and there was no need to be polite, although they were extremely grateful in their hearts, but everyone chose the fruit they wanted with a smile on their faces.

Among them, Yi Luoxiang wants purple pine nuts, Yan Qingqing wants yellow pine nuts, Ming Xuan wants green pine nuts, and Rove has no choice, so he can only use red ones.

After receiving the pine nuts, everyone opened the Taiji diagram one after another, returned to the pot in the sky, and each entered the secret room to retreat to absorb the energy contained in the pine nuts.

Entering the secret room, Xin Yun gently pinched the shell of the pine nut and immediately ...... A fragrance of pine wood, mixed with the fragrance of aura, gushed out, smelling this indescribable aroma, Xin Yun was almost intoxicated......

(To be continued)
