Chen Jing browsed through the jade slips, and messages flashed through his mind.

In recent years, there has been chaos on the Shattered Star Hills, and small bandits such as the Water Ghost and the Barren Mountain Bandit have been active.

However, the activities of the six major Kou have decreased a lot, and the mountain gate has been breached, and the sect has not been destroyed for a long time.

Among the six original bandits, the momentum is very large, but since Chen Jing led the little beasts to destroy half of the Biyuan in Folded Ear Peak, the six original bandits have not been very active, and now they have disappeared.

That's a good thing, but it's harder to track them down.

In addition to the Six Great Kou and the Phantom God Society, Chen Jing paid more attention to the affairs of the Shadow Demon, and the threat of the Demon King-level Shadow Demon was too great, which made it difficult for people to sleep.

The Great Shopkeeper of the Four Seas Thunder was also very concerned about this matter and sent more information.

Although the Shadow Demon is ever-changing, as long as it moves in the Shattered Star Hill, it will always leave traces, and it is up to you to find it.

In addition, the Shadow Demon was only discovered when it was wreaking havoc in Crane Water City, and he had not heard of any news of the Shadow Demon on the Shattered Star Hills in the past.

Shadow Fiend may have made a move, but because the Shattered Star Hills are chaotic and the Shadow Fiend is good at changing, no one noticed, or it could be that the Shadow Fiend didn't make a move on the Shattered Star Hills.

Back then, in the abyss of falling demons, Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er found that there were immortal cultivators secretly contacting the demons, and the Demon Suppression Hall made a big effort to investigate, but they didn't find anyone who colluded with the demons.

At that time, Chen Jing guessed whether it was a monk outside Juxing Mountain, or a member of the Illusory God Society.

The Shadow Demon sneaks out of the Fallen Demon Abyss and arrives in the Shattered Star Hills, where he may collude with the Phantom God Society.

In this way, the fact that Shadow Fiend had not been exposed before, and fled back to the Shattered Star Hills after being injured can be explained.

After looking at a few jade slips, Chen Jing found a few abnormal events, and he combed them out, Yanxia Mountain and Qingtanghe Hill had scattered cultivators missing one after another, and there may be some explanations behind these two things.

He took out the spirit rhino and left a message to the shopkeeper of Lei Da, asking the four seas to collect more information about the place where the incident occurred.

In addition, the Shadow Demon began to wreak havoc near Crane Water City more than twenty years ago, and the news on the Shattered Star Hills had to be resorted out before that.

A few months later, the crystal greenhouse.

Now there are a lot more pots in the greenhouse, and eight out of ten pure gold gourd seeds have sprouted, growing tender green seedlings.

Two of the four purple-red spirit fruit seeds sprouted, and small green leaves with red edges emerged from the soil, like a grass instead of a tree.

In addition to the Pure Gold Gourd and the Purple Red Spirit Fruit, Chen Jing also planted the kernel sent by the Yin Rakshasa and the seeds of the Silver Horn Tree.

These two types of seeds have not moved yet.

Xiao Luo flew above the flower pot, observing the seedlings of the two purple and red spirit fruits.

Chen Jing's heart moved, and the green light mist and white water mist descended, enveloping the many flower pots on the jade platform.

The freshly sprouted seedlings swayed, hungry and thirsty to absorb the light mist.

Back mountain, refining workshop.

In a small hall, Chen Jing sat behind the jade case, holding a jade slip, sorting out the runes in the shell of the turtle.

Outside the door, the voice of disciple Zhang Ling came from: "Master! ”

"Come in."

Zhang Ling walked in, handed over a jade slip, and said, "The smelting workshop has been designed, Master, take a look." ”

"Good!" Chen Jing took the jade slip and said casually: "Sit." ”

Zhang Ling sat down on the topaz bench, and Chen Jing looked at the jade slip he brought.

Inside is a blueprint of a smelting workshop.

Chen Jingyou dug a large amount of Xuanguang cold iron ore in the open sea, Xuanguang cold iron is not a very rare material, but this time he brought back too much ore, filled with most of the Qiankun gourd, refining so much ore is also a very time-consuming thing.

Therefore, Chen Jing planned to build a smelting workshop and let the lower court send someone to manage it, and smelt all the massive ore into cold iron.

Zhang Ling was very interested in building a workshop, he liked the workshop where he brewed purple jade spirit wine, and he had already figured out the principle of that workshop and wanted to try his skills.

So Chen Jing told Zhang Ling about the general idea, and handed over the design and construction of the workshop to him, and now Zhang Ling took out the design drawings.

The large Chaos Vitality Furnace is used to provide spiritual energy, drive the entire workshop, put in ore, and continuously refine the Xuanguang Cold Iron in it.

Zhang Ling's refining attainments are much higher than when Chen Jing originally designed the winery, and there is no problem with the overall design of the smelting workshop, Chen Jing made two suggestions:

"The inlet should also be designed to be size-adjustable. Add a counter to count how many iron ingots have been smelted. ”

"Good!"

This is not much difficulty, but Zhang Ling didn't expect it before.

After the design is completed, the next step is to build, Chen Jing commanded:

"Don't build the smelting workshop in the lower courtyard, find a barren mountain next to it to build it, and bring some people from the refining workshop in the lower courtyard to let them fight."

"I'm going to choose a location." Zhang Ling left in a hurry.

More than half a month later, Zhang Ling prayed in the spirit rhino that the smelting workshop was built.

Chen Jing took the little beasts and rushed to the lower courtyard.

When building the workshop a few days ago, Zhang Ling asked Songguo to get the foundation, so the little beasts knew the news of the construction of the workshop, and they had already said that they would follow to see it.

Ziyun flew down Lingyan Mountain and flew towards the barren mountain next to the lower courtyard.

The smelting workshop was also in the Xiao Zhou Tian Xingchen Great Array, and Chen Jing controlled the Great Array and knew the place.

"Chirp!"

"Meow!"

"Chirp!"

The little beasts standing on the head of the cloud cried, and a hill appeared in front of them, with a transparent shield on it, and inside was the smelting workshop.

Ziyun flew to the hill, only to see that the top of the hill was flattened, forming a large platform with two square buildings on the side.

There were seven or eight people standing in front of the workshop.

Ziyun landed, Zhang Ling greeted him, and several other people followed, all of them were from the Lower Courtyard Refining Workshop, led by Lu Jinting, and the little beasts had all seen it.

After the salute, Zhang Ling took out a rectangular metal block, and there was a faint cold light on the black metal.

"Master, you see, this is the Xuanguang Cold Iron refined in the workshop."

Zhang Ling stretched out his fingers as he spoke, and the cold light on the iron piece lit up slightly, making a soft sound of "Zheng".

"Not bad!" Chen nodded, and the quality of the Xuanguang cold iron refined was okay.

"Let's see if it's officially in operation."

Chen Jing said as a green-skinned gourd flew out of his sleeve and flew above the platform at the top of the mountain.

Immediately afterwards, with a loud "boom" sound, countless black and heavy ores tilted down.

Soon a black hill was piled up on the platform, and a cold light hung over the hill.

"......" Lu Jinting and the other lower courtyard disciples looked at Xiaoshan and were stunned for a while.

They had all seen the Xuanguang Cold Iron that they had refined before, it was a good material, and the piece that Zhang Ling took could refine a top-grade flying sword in the foundation building period.

The ore on the platform is piled up, and I don't know how much Xuanguang Cold Iron can be smelted.

Zhang Ling made a big platform before, saying that it was a stockyard, but they were a little unimpressed, but they didn't expect it......
