Chapter 281: Return to the Ten Thousand Souls Mountains
After Zhang Yifan's three years of unremitting teaching and guidance, Wang Congwu and the three of them have made very obvious progress, not only their cultivation has improved steadily, but everyone's immortal cultivation skills are now able to stand alone, and they can also look forward to the advanced grandmaster, unlike before.
At present, He Jinzhi has been able to refine the pills in the early stage of foundation building, and the success rate has reached more than fifty percent, and she can already earn spirit stones, and in the past three years, she has offset nearly 50,000 contribution points through the secret realm and alchemy.
Sometimes He Jinzhi can also help Zhang Yifan to refine some pills, saving Zhang Yifan the time spent on trivial things before refining pills, which makes Zhang Yifan very satisfied. Therefore, he was very willing to teach her some experience and skills in alchemy, so that He Jinzhi could improve quickly.
However, Zhang Yifan's alchemy style did not match He Jinzhi's methodical and disciplined temperament, so he did not ask He Jinzhi to have the same style as himself, but deliberately cultivated He Jinzhi's own style.
Now it has gradually formed a more delicate and steady style, although the alchemy speed of this style is relatively slow, but the rate of success is relatively high.
After three years of intentional training and strict discipline by Zhang Yifan, Qin Yuanzhi has completely matured, behaves in a very orderly manner, and manages the store even more handy, and seems to be a management talent, which makes Zhang Yifan very happy.
Qin Yuanzhen's talisman making technique has improved a lot due to the calmness of his heart, and the success rate of refining is much higher than before, Zhang Yifan estimates that in less than five years, he will be able to advance to the realm of grandmasters, and the progress is very fast.
However, Zhang Yifan was a little regretful, and Qin Yuanzhi could not practice Tiangong talisman because of his qualifications.
As for Wang Congwu, it is really Zhang Yifan's unexpected joy.
Maybe it was really the spirit fruit that was suspected to be the fire spirit fruit that changed Wang Congwu's qualifications and body, making him extremely close to the fire attribute, and after three years of hard practice, Wang Congwu finally got started and became a heavenly refiner.
Although Wang Congwu's qualifications are not as good as the body of fire refining, with his diligent practice and Zhang Yifan's careful teaching, Wang Congwu practiced the basic refining method of Tiangong refining a year ago, and after a year of practice, he officially started.
This made Zhang Yifan sigh, Burning Sky Valley had been looking for a spirit boy with no suitable qualifications for more than ten years, and his unintentional act of inserting willows allowed him to finally find a descendant of Tiangongmen, and a hanging heart could be regarded as falling to the ground.
Although the realm of the three people has not improved greatly, their strength has improved a lot compared to three years ago, with the best exercises and a complete set of best magic weapons, they can now deal with a fifth-level demon beast alone, and they can be regarded as elite monks.
To achieve the current results, all of this is inseparable from Zhang Yifan's painstaking training and teaching, for which the three of them have long regarded Zhang Yifan as a teacher and have great respect.
Although Zhang Yifan has never admitted to accepting them as apprentices, he has not stopped the three of them from practicing the gift of master and apprentice, which makes the three of them feel full of joy and know that there is a drama in this matter.
At this time, Zhang Yifan gathered the three of them.
"You have been here for three or four years, and I am quite satisfied with your performance over the years, both in terms of character and diligence, and it is not in vain that I have bothered to teach you. This is the last assessment, and if you pass the assessment, you will become a monk of my sect, and you will know which sect I am from at that time. Zhang Yifan said with a smile, not as serious as before.
"Great, shopkeeper, can your subordinates worship you as a teacher at that time?" Wang Congwu said excitedly.
"Hehe, wait until you pass the assessment, let's do your best. Zhang Yifan said noncommittally, such an attitude made the other two people's eyes shine.
"Shopkeeper, I also want to worship you as a teacher!"
"Well, you guys too, all behave well. Zhang Yifan also nodded and said with a smile, looking in a good mood.
"Next, I will talk about this assessment. The location of this assessment is a place called Gully Valley in the Wanling Mountain Range, where there are some Gully Ground Spider Demon Beasts, your task is to hunt at least ten Gully Ground Spiders and Gully Ground Spider Silk within a month, the more you hunt, the higher the assessment evaluation. ”
"The adult Glyph Earth Spider is a sixth-level demon beast, and its strength is very strong, and it is not something that you can deal with alone now, so you must cooperate with each other, do you understand?"
"Shopkeeper, understood. ”
"I'll take you there this time, and then I'll leave, and I'll pick you up in a month's time. Alright, you guys get ready, and you'll leave tomorrow. ”
When the three of them heard this, they left and began to make some preparations according to Zhang Yifan's instructions.
Zhang Yifan was thinking about tomorrow, and the Wanling Mountain Range was a turning point in his fate, which made him fall into memories.
This time he went to the Ten Thousand Souls Mountain Range, he had a threefold purpose.
One is to look for glyphed ground spider silk.
After years of collecting, he is currently refining the Heavenly Thousand Silk Banner with only two spiritual materials to refine, namely the Silver Thread Spirit Silk and the Glyph Earth Spider Silk.
The silver thread is one of the seven strange silkworms of the silver silkworm spit out the spirit silk, more precious and rare than the golden armor silk and the five elements of the spirit silk, one or two can be sold for nearly ten thousand spirit stones, the legend is only in Kyoto.
Zhang Yifan has never collected it, and plans to go to the capital to find Wu Huan when he is a child to see if he can find some.
And the glyph spider silk is a kind of monster beast called the glyph spider, which is also very rare and valuable. Ten glyph ground spiders can collect one or two glyph ground spider silk, which is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Adult glyph ground spiders are generally sixth-level demon beasts, and their strength is very strong and difficult, and they can't be defeated by monks in the late stage of foundation building.
Fortunately, this kind of monster beast is used to living alone, so it is not difficult to deal with. Therefore, Zhang Yifan listed the assessment content as obtaining glyph spider silk rectification, which is suitable for the three of them to cooperate with each other.
The Glyph Ground Spider exists in a remote place called the Glygul Valley in the Wanling Mountain Range, and it just so happens that Zhang Yifan has heard Jiu'er talk about some interesting things about the Wanling Mountain Range before, coupled with the verification of the classics, so he knows that this place is only in a remote and secret place on the periphery of the Wanling Mountain Range and does not go deep into the mountain range, so it is not very dangerous.
The second is to dig the Yin Sha iron ore.
This is the raw ore for refining the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Lingyin Metallic Magic Weapon Spiritual Material Yin Evil Iron Essence, which is very precious, and its value is comparable to the gold Xuanshi mine obtained by Zhang Yifan before.
He has been discovering that ore for decades, and he has not had the time and means to dig it, this time he refined the mining puppet, and just went to collect it, so as not to be found by others, then the gain outweighed the loss.
Although the place was very hidden, and the Evil Iron Ore was very hidden, there were other people who could sense it.
There are a lot of Yin Evil Iron Mines, and the value is amazing, even if the people of the sect know about it, it is inevitable that the wealth will be moving, so Zhang Yifan is extremely careful to keep it secret.
He happened to use the name of assessment to secretly go to collect it, so as not to arouse suspicion.
The three natures are to let the three of them understand their own advantages and disadvantages through cooperation, strengthen their cooperation with each other, complete the assessment, and finally bring the three of them into the Burning Sky Valley and under the Tiangong Sect.
Every time Zhang Yifan assessed the performance of the three of them to report to the Burning Sky Valley in detail, and the three of them also secretly encountered several investigations by the Burning Sky Valley, which had already proved that there was no problem, and as soon as they entered the Burning Sky Valley, they would become the core disciples of the Burning Sky Valley and enjoy the treatment of core disciples.
At that time, if they voluntarily joined the Tiangongmen, Zhang Yifan also planned to give them a set of Tiangang series magic weapons.
The next day, after the four of them were ready, they quietly left Jiangyue Island Fang City and went straight to the Wanling Mountain Range.
Zhang Yifan's Tiangong Flying Boat traveled stealthily and flew fast, able to carry four people, and arrived at the entrance of the Wanling Mountain Range in less than a day.
"After entering the Ten Thousand Spirits Mountain Range, you need to restrain your breath, according to the breathing technique I taught you, don't alarm the demon beasts here, so as not to trigger a herd attack. ”
The three of them nodded in understanding.
Then Zhang Yifan took the three of them all the way forward according to the route they had inquired before.
Along the way, everyone encountered very few demon beasts, and only after a hundred miles deep did they encounter some low-level demon beasts, which made Zhang Yifan a little puzzled, and at the same time he was extra cautious and began to investigate.
Fortunately, as he deepened, the number of demon beasts detected by Zhang Yifan gradually increased, and the strange situation gradually disappeared, so he was a little relieved.
The four of them walked for three days in a row and finally arrived at the Valley of the Gully, because of Zhang Yifan's powerful divine sense to probe, so everyone did not encounter any difficulties along the way, and when they encountered a lone demon beast, they naturally used thunder to kill, and those with more demon beasts avoided in advance.
"I explored the area at the mouth of this gully valley, there should be no seventh-level demon beasts, you must be careful here, cooperate with each other, and complete the task. But don't be reckless, save your life first, you know?" Zhang Yifan said to the three of them solemnly.
"Got it, shopkeeper. ”
"Alright, you guys go in, I'll pick you up here in a month's time. ”
The three of them cautiously entered the Valley of the Gullies and quickly disappeared in front of Zhang Yifan.
Zhang Yifan raised his hand, and a white shadow and a black shadow appeared, it was Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai.
"Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai, you secretly protect them, and only take action when there are demon beasts that far exceed their strength, understand?"
"Got it, master. ”
"Don't expose yourselves, keep an eye on the situation here, I feel like there seems to be some changes in the Ten Thousand Souls Mountains. ”
"Hmm. The two spirit beasts nodded obediently, and then also entered the valley of the gully.
After Zhang Yifan arranged this back-up hand, he began to walk towards the location of the yin vein in his memory.
Although he made some marks on that place, after so many years, it still took Zhang Yifan three days to find the location of the Yin Shale Mine.
After carefully observing and finding that no one had ever been here at all, Zhang Yifan breathed a sigh of relief, and after arranging the covering formation, he began to release the burrowing puppets to dig out a few holes first.
The two burrowing puppets and the three carrying puppets have been working non-stop, and the progress is very fast, and it is expected to be completed in less than two days.
During this period, Zhang Yifan began to hunt some nearby demon beasts above level four, refining the puppet requires the spirit of the demon beast, and the Blood Demon Pill is made of the flesh and blood of the demon beast.
There are a lot of monsters here, in order to avoid interfering with the operation of the mining puppets, Zhang Yifan gradually hunted out the nearby monsters above level four, and drove away the monsters below level four.
The efficiency of the third-level mining puppet is very high, one puppet can dig nearly a thousand spirit stones of Yin Evil Iron Ore in a day, five puppets dig at the same time, Zhang Yifan can earn five thousand spirit stones of Yin Evil Iron Ore in one day.
Five mining puppets have been digging for ten days This Yin Evil Iron Ore has not been dug yet, and now the five puppets have dug deep into the mining area, and one puppet can dig nearly three thousand spirit stones of Yin Evil Iron Ore in one day, and the quality of Yin Evil Iron Ore is much better than before.
This made Zhang Yifan a little surprised, he didn't expect that the Yin Evil Ore Vein here was so big, according to this progress, maybe he would eventually dig up the Yin Evil Iron Ore worth millions of spirit stones, this is really too amazing wealth.
Even if he has an extremely deep net worth now, he can't help but be a little out of breath and his heart is racing. In front of the heavy treasure, Zhang Yifan uneasily arranged two more blindfolding circles to completely cover up the traces here.
.....
In the wooden house of the Nine Lotus Valley, a woman in white sat cross-legged on the ground, practicing.
The woman has a peerless appearance, and the aura she exudes has reached the realm of False Dan, and there are nine white phantoms on her head, which she can't see very clearly.
A tiger with yellow hair three or four feet in size walked into the cultivation room.
Roar... Roar...
"Rhubarb, did you say that the stinky rat found out that a monk had broken into the mountains?"
"If this kind of thing is just killed by them, it's over, why do you want to report it. Are they not listening to you? Hmph, if you don't obey, you will eat them all! Don't be soft-hearted, you know!"
Roar... Roar...
"With the breath of a mother, don't dare to do it? Could it be him?"
"If it's him, don't do it, let him go. Rhubarb, go and see for yourself, if it's really him, you can tell him not to enter the Wanling Mountain Range in the future, it will be very dangerous here, and any monk who comes will be killed. Remember not to reveal my existence and say that I am missing and that you came back on your own. ”
Roar... Roar...
Rhubarb nodded a little wistfully and left.
"Are you thinking about your good friend, too, and so am I. It's a pity that for the sake of my mother, I can't go back, and maybe I may become an enemy. If there is an afterlife, I want to be able to be with him, just like my mother. ”
......
More than ten days have passed in the blink of an eye, and a steady stream of Yin Sha iron ore has been dug out, and now a puppet can dig out nearly ten thousand spirit stones of Yin Sha iron ore in a day, and it has been dug to a depth of nearly three or four hundred zhang underground, and the Yin Sha iron ore in it is basically connected together.
The quality of puppet mining is getting better and better, and the size is getting bigger and bigger, but the number is gradually decreasing, Zhang Yifan knows that this mine should be hollowed out in ten days.
Now he has collected almost 600,000 spirit stones of Yin Sha Iron Ore, and the excavated ore can be piled up into a small mountain bag, fortunately, Zhang Yifan's Tiangong bracelet space is large enough, and at the same time, he also brought a few large storage bags, there is no problem at all.
At this time, there were still about two or three days before the time agreed with the three of them, Zhang Yifan set up the five puppets to pile up the excavated ore in a secret underground place and start mining automatically, and then he planned to go to the Valley of Gully to see the situation first.
Due to his familiarity with the route and Zhang Yifan's all-out hurriedness, it took less than a day for Zhang Yifan to rush to the Glyph Valley.
Before entering the valley, Zhang Yifan was relieved. He sensed that Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei were in a hidden place, and more than ten miles away, the three of them were hiding in a hidden place and talking quietly.
Zhang Yifan probed their breath and didn't find much abnormality, but he felt that Wang Congwu and Qin Yuanzhi seemed to be injured, and He Jinzhi's vitality was a little damaged, and his breath was a little unstable.
Zhang Yifan first summoned Xiao Bai and Xiao Hei to inquire about the situation.
When he saw Xiaobai, he found that it was listless, without any energy, and depressed.
Zhang Yifan asked curiously, "Xiaobai, what happened?"
