Chapter 3: Mysterious Minerals

I don't know how long I slept before Qin Zhan woke up from a deep coma.

Regardless of the time, the first feeling after a slight sense of consciousness is hunger...... Judging by this level of hunger, he would never have been asleep for less than a whole day.

He was not yet fully awake, and in a daze, he found something that seemed to be particularly delicious. At this time, he only thought it was the pastry that Xiao Shan'er prepared for him, and he didn't think about it, so he just picked it up and took a bite......

"Click!"

After biting half of the thing in one bite, and after chewing a few bites, Qin Zhan suddenly realized that the taste was wrong.

When he calmed down a little and saw the "pastry" in his hand clearly, he was stunned, and in an instant, the sleepiness in his mind disappeared cleanly, as if he had been thrown into an ice hole, and a strong cold air hit the bottom of his heart, making him completely sober up!

What was in his hand was not a "pastry" at all, but the piece of jade, the ancient jade that Lin Shan bumped into and hurriedly hid on his body!

Eat! Eat! Eat at last!

Qin Zhan's heart was extremely shocked.

Although he forced himself to suppress that terrible thought, before he knew it, he still did such an unthinkable thing.

However, after these shocks, he did not have the panic he imagined, but felt strange, when did his teeth become so good, half a piece of jade actually burst out in one bite, without the slightest pain or discomfort, no different from devouring those meals and food.

Thinking that half of the jade had already been swallowed by him, he immediately sat down, steadied his mind, and sensed the culprit of all this—the mysterious ore.

After the jade entered the body, it did not go through the digestion channel, but was directly attracted by the mysterious ore. At the same time, his sluggish spiritual energy was suddenly like the water that burst the embankment, and was pulled into the ore by the surging pull of the mysterious ore, and in an instant, it actually made him fall into weakness again after he had just recovered to a full mental state, and the sleepy tiredness of a day ago felt like a mountain torrent erupting, in a vain attempt to completely annihilate his consciousness.

At this time, the stubbornness that had been lurking in Qin Zhan's body was stimulated, and he stubbornly supported his consciousness, staring at every move of that piece of ore with all his attention! Because of it, he lost four hours of cultivation time every day, and even fainted at every turn, and now he let himself swallow jade alive and become like a monster. For a while, all kinds of resentment against this ore over the years broke out and turned into a powerful energy surging out.

Resentment is also a type of spiritual power, even more powerful than ordinary spiritual power. When this power exploded, it instantly filled the gap of insufficient mental power and completely dispersed the surging exhaustion.

Stimulated by this resentment, the mysterious ore that had absorbed and contained a lot of spiritual energy in the past few years was suddenly activated, refining all these spiritual energies, making these scattered and unknown spiritual energies undergo earth-shaking changes. The huge and chaotic spiritual energy in the ore body is constantly compressed, condensed, and qualitative changes occur, when the spiritual power that has been stored for three years is all consumed, those scattered spiritual energy is finally completely solidified, forming a divine consciousness.

It's as if the body, which has always only had a sense of qi, suddenly condensed the first true qi, and really completed a process of change from illusory to substantial.

Even though this divine consciousness is very weak, so weak that it can't even extend beyond the body, it is indeed divine consciousness!

That kind of supernatural power that can only be cultivated by a transcendent existence that has cultivated to the fourth level of the gods, cultivated the mind to perfection, and stepped into the realm of immortality-Divine Consciousness!

"The purpose of this ore to absorb my spirit is actually to cultivate my divine consciousness for me?"

Qin Zhan's heart was full of doubts, and he was not carried away by this sudden divine sense. Or, his gaze was limited to the Qi refining stage, and he still couldn't truly appreciate how difficult it was for the birth of divine consciousness!

At the time of his doubts, the jade had all attached itself to the ore. After being absorbed by the ore, the jade, like his own poor spiritual energy, was refined, and after a while, there was a tendency to transform from a solid form to an energy form.

What was surprising was that the energy consumed by refining jade turned out to be his own divine sense.

With a thought in his mind, Qin Zhan immediately withdrew this divine sense, extracted the ore, and returned to his sea of consciousness.

Without the support of the divine energy, the refining of the ore for jade was immediately terminated, and at the same time, due to the lack of energy, its mysterious traction power on the spiritual energy resurfaced, and the spiritual energy that had already fallen into depletion was absorbed by it again, and the familiar strong weakness came to my heart again.

"This ore absorbs my spiritual energy to cultivate divine consciousness, just to provide it with the energy to refine these jade and iron tools......" Qin Zhan frowned, if all the spiritual power could be transformed into divine consciousness, he couldn't ask for it. It's just that God knows what the purpose of this mysterious ore is, and whether there will be any mutations after absorbing infinite spiritual energy......

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, the master said that by constantly refining the sword with his mind, he can build a bridge between people and swords." The sword is originally made of iron ore and other materials, so why don't I use my divine consciousness as a god, quench this ore, and turn it into a part of myself. As long as it can be controlled by me, there is no need to worry that it will absorb my mental power all the time, causing excessive mental consumption and often fainting. ”

Thinking of this, Qin Zhan integrated this repeated divine consciousness into the mysterious ore, quietly feeling its specialness, its composition, and the magical special effects.

For three years, the ore absorbed Qin Zhan's spiritual energy for three whole years, so that the fit between the two had reached an extremely high level, although it was not yet to reach the realm of not distinguishing each other and coexisting with each other, but it would definitely not resist his divine sense immersion.

With the influx of divine consciousness, an incomparably simple memory immediately came to mind.

Parasitize, refine, devour, grow.

The whole ore is like a parasitic life, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of that life, transforming it into a mutated divine consciousness that can refine the minerals, refining those ores into a strange energy that he has never heard of, making itself continue to grow.

It's an evolutionary instinct!

Moreover, the later he grows up, the greater the requirements for spiritual power, if he can't provide it with enough energy at that time, then, waiting for you, only mental power is exhausted, and your mind is exhausted to death!

Seeing this, Qin Zhan unconsciously had a drop of cold sweat on his forehead.

Once upon a time, he realized that death was so close to him!

If a few years ago, he hadn't figured out the way to exercise his mental strength by himself, which made his mental strength better, then since three years ago, his sleep time would only get longer and longer. From 12 hours to 14 hours, and then to 16, 18, and 20...... Never wake up.

What made him even more shocked was that because of the connection between his heart and mind, if he didn't let this mysterious mineral devour jade and other minerals, he would instinctively think that the refining power was not enough, and he would gradually increase the demand for spiritual power, and at that time...... He still can't escape the fate of dying of mental exhaustion.

Devouring jade is death!

If you don't devour jade, you die!

This deep helplessness seemed to have withdrawn all the strength from his body in an instant, until he was so weak that he even lost the strength to open his eyes......

"Why is this ......happening?"

Qin Zhan, who had not experienced the storms of life and death, the whole world seemed to collapse and collapse in an instant!

"Shan'er, Master, Daddy......"

Endless darkness engulfed from all directions, like a vicious and mocking devil, tearing apart all the warmth in memory......

"No, no, get out, I'm going to get it out!"

Thinking of his father Qin Yue's kindness and care, his master's careful teaching, and Lin Shan's pretty face with a clever smile, Qin Zhan suddenly burst out with a strong desire to survive.

The tired spirit, as if returning to the light, was lifted up again.

The powerful potential oppressed by the life and death pass made him immediately condense a powerful spiritual power, firmly locking the ore, and vainly trying to move this ore out by transferring his true qi.

It's just that the ore that was originally held in his hand was less than a pound in weight, but at this moment, it seemed to be bigger and heavier than the endless mountain range that stretched for 100,000 miles, and the spiritual power that Qin Zhan had mobilized couldn't even shake it in the slightest, let alone let it move its position.

"There must be a way, there must be a way!"

Qin Zhan kept forcing himself to calm down, his brain thinking quickly at a terrifying speed, looking for a way to save him.

Suddenly, his expression was slightly stunned, as if he had thought of something, and then, regardless of his image, he laughed loudly: "Haha, energy, energy! Grow by devouring energy, if I swallow the energy in his body and then forcibly take it out, so that it can never grow, what can it do to me!"

Thinking of this, Qin Zhan immediately mobilized the trace of divine consciousness in his body, controlled the pure energy refined by absorbing the ancient jade from the mysterious ore, and forcibly pulled it out of the ore.

As soon as his divine consciousness moved, he suddenly found that this kind of pure energy was incomparably solidified, incomparably thick, and incomparably heavy, even if it was a transcendent power as strong as divine consciousness, it was extremely difficult to move it.

"I remember reading a travelogue that recorded that the divine consciousness was a very powerful force, but when it came to me, it couldn't even carry a kind of energy...... It seems that in order to attract customers, these travelogues are exaggerated and mythologize these unknown things. ”

For a while, Qin Zhan's expression became heavy again.

The pure energy ran a meridian, lost the traction of the divine sense, and the self-reliant was attracted by the mysterious ore and slowly flowed towards the ore. If you really let it flow into the ore and digest it, it will be equivalent to making it stronger, and God knows how many more days of sleep every day to restore his spirit, and come to serve him!

Moreover, the longer he sleeps, the less time he has to find a way to get rid of the ores in his body, which is an absolutely right cycle of evil surnames!

Evil surname cycle!

No way!

Feeling the heavy energy that gradually flowed into the mysterious ore, a cold light resolutely flashed in Qin Zhan's eyes.

"The things in my body are mine! including the spirit, the divine sense, you, and the energy you obtained from refining the ancient jade, these are all mine......! Dream your big dreams!"

In an instant, the power of his divine consciousness that had recovered a little bit surged again, and this time, he actually controlled the meridians in his body, absorbing all this energy that he didn't know what the consequences would be to his body......
