Finding the spirit mines was something that came later. After Ye Shu and Yan Changlan sorted the thunder attribute spirit stones away, they went to search for other useful things in the lair.
For example, those bits and pieces.
The largest number of them are the bones of demonic beasts that have been devoured and have little demonic power in them. They are probably the remaining bones of the three-eyed thunder eagle that has eaten its prey after returning from hunting. The reason why it never rotted and smelled probably had something to do with those thunder-attribute spiritual stones or Green Thunder Vine, which naturally released a lot of thunder and lightning power, and burned all the rotten things with thunder and fire, leaving this lair free of There is too much odor to make people feel nauseous - but it is just like this, the Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle will not be able to clean it up and still accumulate these fragments.
Next is the remains of the spiritual plant.
The Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle has not yet awakened its spirit. Although it may not know the types of some spiritual herbs and elixirs, its bloodline inheritance will tell it which ones it can eat and which ones it cannot. If it can't, it won't compete with other monsters in the first place. And if it is edible, it will also eat the most valuable part of the spiritual grass, bite off the other parts and throw them away casually - there is no need to worry about which discarded parts are poisonous, after all, in this environment full of lightning , most of the poison will be destroyed by lightning, and the few that cannot be destroyed, if you think about it, the three-eyed thunder eagle will not throw it in the nest at will, but throw it away outside.
The remains of these spiritual plants were not destroyed in the thunder and lightning, but they were quite capable of withstanding thunder. They had some long roots, very tough vines comparable to spiritual mines, leaves that were invulnerable to water and fire, branches with strange uses, etc.
If you pick and choose, you can still find something suitable for refining weapons.
Ye Shu collected the usable ones and burned the other unusable ones with the Three Yang True Fire.
In an instant, most of the entire lair was emptied, and it looked much neater.
Among those fragments, there are also some thunder-attributed spiritual minerals, probably collected by the Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle to sharpen its claws and beak. There are many claw marks, small holes and friction marks on them. Many of them are tattered and piled up. Go to the bottom. The ones placed at the top are quite new, and they are considered good materials - after all, those that can withstand the "hardening" of the second-level demon eagle must not be too ordinary.
Ye Shu was very satisfied with these spiritual mines.
Even if there are some things in it that are not pure enough, so what? You can always take it back and take a dip in the Chaos Water. After a period of time, you will naturally be able to obtain more suitable materials.
Yan Changlan helped pack these refining materials into one place, and Ye Shu also put them into the Hunyuan Pearl.
And the tattered ones... after all, they were all good materials for refining in the past. Unless the ones that turned into complete waste were directly burned by him, he also collected the others into one place, leaving them to be used to refine some gadgets in the future. For children.
As a result, the nest was cleaned up again.
There are fewer and fewer things left.
Ye Yan and the two looked around carefully. Yan Changlan found "weeds" piled up on the side. If he looked carefully, they were not grass. They were a variety of flexible and slender spiritual plants, spread like a "bed" Yes, it contains a lot of spiritual energy, which should have a lot of nourishing effects on the feathers of the three-eyed thunder eagle.
However, they are all of thunder attribute, lose a lot of spiritual energy, and are not rich in thunder and lightning power, so there is no need to save them in the Hunyuan Pearl.
Ye Shu glanced at it and burned it with the Three Yang True Fire.
Finally, Yan Changlan found two demon eggs under several entangled green thunder vines.
Ye Shu was slightly startled: "What does the Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle want with this egg?"
He naturally recognized that this demon bird egg was not the descendant of the three-eyed thunder eagle, but came from other demon birds.
Yan Changlan identified it carefully: "It seems to be from Caiyuluan."
Ye Shu gently stroked the shells of two demon bird eggs respectively, and nodded slightly: "The color is like jade, with hidden seven colors. When you stroke it, a luan bird will sing lowly. They are indeed the eggs of colorful jade luan eggs." He pondered for a moment, " The Caiyuluan is an ancient blood demon bird. After it hatches, the three-eyed thunder eagle will eat it, which may strengthen its own bloodline. I suddenly remembered that among the bone fragments just now, there seemed to be the broken bones of the Caiyuluan. Now, I think that after the Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle hunted the Caiyu Luan, it found that it was of some benefit to itself, so it took its eggs and waited for them to hatch, stimulating its bloodline and replenishing it again."
Yan Changlan said: "What Ah Zhuo said makes sense." Then he smiled again, "Now it is easier for you and me. After the Caiyuluan hatches, it is very likely that the spirit will be opened at birth, and its attribute is gold. Although they are useless to you and me, But it can also be sold at a good price.”
Ye Shu said: "I will put it into the Hunyuan Pearl. After I go back, I will decide who to sell it to, or sell it directly to the sect."
·
After the eggs of Caiyuluan were found, the entire bird's nest was searched cleanly.
Ye Shu and Yan Changlan stopped staying and went out from the entrance again, searching for the roots of the Green Thunder Vine as they had thought before.
The two of them searched along the vines, and after going around in a circle, they found the end of the vines somewhere behind the cliff. Afterwards, the two dug deeper along that spot, and gradually dug out its root system. What was more surprising was that the root system was not as strong as the body of the Green Thunder Vine. Each branch was only about the thickness of a little finger. , but each branch is very long, intertwined with other roots and twisted into the rocky soil. It still takes a lot of time to dig them out completely.
But for a monk, this difficulty is nothing.
Ye Shu and Yan Changlan penetrated the soil with their spiritual consciousness. One held a short dagger, and the other shrank the spirit sword, and quickly dug on the spot. While digging, the two of them paid attention to not damaging the roots as much as possible, and they worked more slowly.
Seeing the two employers like this, the two open-spirited monsters that Ye Yan had contracted with, Jiaoyun Jiaomo, also fell to the ground and transformed into a pair of good-looking men and women, who went over to learn to do the same thing.
With the addition of these two demonic pythons, it was indeed twice the result with half the effort, and it was much smoother than before.
Fortunately, the root system of the Green Thunder Vine was very complicated to mine, and several people spent a lot of effort on it. Fortunately, in the end, they only cleaned up some of the attached soil, and there was no other problem.
Slowly, most of the roots were completely cut out. Ye Shu placed them on the ground, and then his heart changed. He had taken away both the roots and the huge bird's nest.
Ye Shu and Yan Changlan took a look at the holes made to dig out the roots. He just pushed the soil in again and turned around to leave that place.
Jiao Yun and Jiao Mo quickly transformed into python shapes, shrank their bodies, and wrapped around Ye Yan's wrists again.
After picking the Green Thunder Vine, Ye Shu and Yan Changlan headed towards the top of the mountain without consulting each other.
The previous exploration was just the bottom of the mountain, so now we will continue.
·
This mountain is not very vast, and there are almost no connected peaks around it. When Ye Shu and Yan Changlan looked at it roughly before, they didn't think much about it. Now that they looked at it carefully, they knew that it might not be the case. After countless thunders descended, it turned out that this was not the case. The connected peaks were probably all shattered year by year by the raging lightning. The remaining peak became more and more powerful, and mutated many strange treasures of heaven and earth, but in the end nearly half of the mountain was still intact. struck by lightning
.
Therefore, upon closer inspection, the shape of this mountain is still somewhat strange.
Probably for this reason, as you walk up the mountain, treasures will emerge one after another...
On the way to the top of the mountain, the two still obtained a large number of lightning-attribute spiritual plants, and there were also many spiritual mines dug out of the mountain rocks. Among them, there were also fragments similar to those in the three-eyed thunder eagle's nest, but the quality If there is a difference in appearance, it should be because the conception and mutation have not been completed yet.
Ye Shu sighed softly and summoned several vicious teething insects.
"Don't be idle, just come and mine. However, if you encounter this thing, you must come back and report it to me quickly." Ye Shu took out a thunder spirit stone and pointed it out to the vicious insects, "leave one All I have to do is report it, and I will ask the other vicious rodents to dig for me as before."
The vicious rodents nodded rustlingly, climbed up the mountain wall one after another, and quickly gnawed away some bits and pieces, and in a short time they unearthed the spiritual ore embedded in the rock.
Every few breaths, Ye Shu would hear a crisp sound of the spiritual mineral falling to the ground.
This is enough to prove that the vicious rodents are working very hard...
Ye Shu thought like this, and continued to search with Yan Changlan.
The two of them went up from the front of the mountain, but couldn't find it from the front. They couldn't find the Leiling Stone Mine when they reached the top of the mountain, so they walked down the other side and looked for it in that direction.
And if not...
That's just a wrong guess, nothing serious.
·
After searching for a while from the rear, the vicious-faced spider scorpion suddenly became slightly restless.
Ye Shu grabbed the little scorpion from the back of his neck, raised it up to his own level, looked at the fierce light flashing in his eyes, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
The vicious-faced spider scorpion conveyed an idea.
Ye Shu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Have you found the Lei Ling Stone Mine?"
The vicious-faced spider scorpion's tail hook was light, as if echoing his words.
Ye Shu also nodded: "Since you are sure, Changlan and I will let you explore. If it is indeed there, I will remember you for your contribution. If you lead the wrong way or admit the wrong mine, we will all go there." Go down the mountain and let you hollow out this Thunder Mountain and find a few treasures for us, then let's stop this matter, how about it?"
The vicious-faced spider scorpion hissed lowly, and its tail hook shook as if unwilling to give up.
Ye Shu calmly suppressed his thoughts, and the vicious-faced spider scorpion could only lie in Ye Shu's palm depressedly.
However, no matter how unwilling it is, as a contracted insect, the vicious-faced spider scorpion still has to act honestly.
Moreover, it really brought the two of them into the spirit stone mine smoothly.
·
The place where the Leiling Stone vein is located is a stone forest in the back mountain, covered with scattered stones. Many of the stones are broken, but some are relatively complete and have some scratches on them. If you look closely, you can see that they are really from the Three-Eyed Thunder Eagle.
The vicious-faced spider scorpion transformed into a half-sized black scorpion and crawled forward. After a while, the two of them came to a sunken pit.
Yan Changlan investigated carefully.
Sure enough, there is quite a surge of thunder-attributed aura inside?
It seems that maybe we have found the right place.
Ye Shu said: "Let's go down and have a look."
At the same time, he also summoned all the vicious rodent insects nearby so that they could quickly join in the efficient mining.
·
Ye Yan and the two of them used their own movements and fell down from the pit one after another.
