The sunset brought the afterglow of the bright sun and fell through the mountains, dyeing the young man's hair with a slight golden-red color.
Jiang Su walked to the deer demon's side, looked at the lights dotted all over the huge mountains and fields, and said: "Although the Qinglu Demon Mansion is a place where monsters are entrenched, it still has some fireworks."
The deer monster smiled and said: "Some monsters have become more picky as they have advanced in cultivation. Not only do they need quick-footed humans to serve them in daily life, but they also need to eat food. If you have superb cooking skills, that's fine. It’s quite a nourishing life to be able to live.”
While talking, the two of them had already turned around the fork in the mountain road and walked towards one of the completely unfamiliar mountain roads.
The sky was getting dark, and during the short few miles of mountain road, Jiang Su and the deer monster encountered dozens of monsters patrolling the mountain.
From time to time, mountain road commanders came to check, but after the deer demon took out his token, he didn't say much and let them go easily.
"This is the Weapon Refining Mountain."
The deer demon stopped at the gate of a huge stone mountain several feet high and walked toward Jiang Su.
Jiang Su raised his eyes and saw that the huge stone mountain gate was more like an archway. On it was the seal inscription "It is a masterpiece of heavenly craftsmanship." The four vigorously scrawled characters were deeply engraved into the extremely hard stone surface.
"Only monsters in the realm of divine creation have such exquisite control over monster power." The deer demon pointed at those words with a rather yearning look on his face. "Although those monsters at the guardian level can forcibly destroy boulders, they are determined to do so." It’s impossible to carve words on it in such detail.”
Jiang Su said: "Is this ancestor of your family a monster in the realm of divine creation?"
The deer demon shook his head and said: "This was carved by the Qinglu King himself about three hundred years ago. Because the magic weapon was too rare and precious, the Qinglu Demon Mansion devoted many resources to develop the Weapon Refining Mountain, making the Demon Mansion Ability to refine magic weapons by oneself.”
While the two were talking, a monster guarding the gate saw this place under the stone gate and came over.
"Roe Deer, I heard that you broke your arm a few days ago, why are you here again?"
When the gatekeeper demon saw the deer demon, his expression relaxed, and it was obvious that he had known him for a long time.
The deer demon took out a token, put it in Jiang Su's hand, turned around and said to the gatekeeper demon: "This person is the fire-burning boy recommended by me with my quota. Please take him up the mountain quickly."
Hearing this, the gatekeeper monster was a little surprised.
But after taking a look at the token held by Jiang Su, he didn't say anything and said, "Come with me."
The mountain road was winding and rugged. Jiang Su followed it for about a while and felt vaguely tired.
Previously in Linglu Cave, although Jiang Su made the karma fire a lot stronger, the profound energy in the divine palace was almost exhausted.
Therefore, the profound energy flowing through the limbs and bones at this time is extremely rare, only as thick as a hair.
Even though Jiang Su was already a creature in the Life Fire Tongxuan Realm, after all, he had not rested for several days in a row, so he would naturally be a little tired now.
The Refining Mountain is sparsely populated. Along the way, I only saw a few monsters patrolling the mountain.
From time to time, one or two human races pass by on the mountain road. They are all wearing gray robes and walking in a hurry.
"Jiang Su, why are you here?"
Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice came into my ears.
Jiang Su looked sideways and saw a young man in gray robe holding an incense burner and looking at him in surprise.
In a flash of emotion, Jiang Su already remembered who this person was.
It was Zhang Huai who was brought to the neighboring village by the sheep-headed monster when he first went up the mountain.
"I'm here to be a fire boy."
Jiang Su smiled.
Zhang Huai's eyes moved slightly, he looked at the gatekeeper monster beside Jiang Su, and said with a smile: "I'll take him up."
The gatekeeper monster glanced at Zhang Huai's gray clothes and knew that he was a human from the Refining Mountain, and said: "This is the best."
"I clearly saw you being taken away by a gray wolf. It's only been a few days. Why did you come to the Refining Mountain again?"
Zhang Huai held the heavy incense burner and asked as he and Jiang Su continued walking on the mountain road.
"It's a long story," Jiang Su said, "How are you enjoying your stay at the Weapon Refining Mountain?"
Zhang Huai looked around, lowered his voice and said, "You are in bad luck coming here. This weapon refining mountain is simply a devil's cave!"
Jiang Su said: "How do you say this?"
Zhang Huai said: "The big monster in the mountain is Master Zhang, but he doesn't care about anything on weekdays, so the monster in charge is Commander Fire Stick. This guy is very vicious. Fortunately, I am a man, otherwise I would have suffered the same fate." Its poisonous hand!"
When Jiang Su heard Zhang Huai say the words "his old man", he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Looking up, he saw that Zhang Huai's eyes were glowing with an abnormal green color, which was obviously completely affected by the Confused God Pill.
It's just that the auras planted in the Confused God Pills in the Refining Mountain all belong to Master Zhang, so Zhang Huai doesn't have the slightest fondness for the other monsters here.
After walking for about half a stick of incense, Zhang Huai and Jiang Su stopped in front of a huge cave built on the mountain.
The huge cave was bustling with people inside and outside. Both monsters and humans were all wearing gray robes, and there was a faint green light deep in the eyes of those humans.
"Who is this guy?"
An ugly monster with a deep red body came forward and looked coldly at Zhang Huai and Jiang Su beside him.
Zhang Huai put down the incense burner in his hand and said: "Commander of the fire stick, this is the fire-burning boy recommended by Zhang Shan's main clan. I happened to meet him on the road and brought him back."
The leader of the fire stick said: "Bring the token."
Jiang Su stepped forward and handed over the token.
The leader of the fire stick looked at it for a while, but his expression was a little gloomy, and he said: "Wait here."
After saying this, it walked straight into the huge cave, turned around several forks, and entered a smaller cave.
The cave was extremely warm. A black-haired monster was leaning on a soft couch, holding two girls in gray robes in his arms, looking quite comfortable.
The leader of the fire stick walked up to it and said: "Commander Wu Mao, the mountain master's tribe recommended a fire-burning boy, but I think he has already entered the Minghuo Tongxuan realm, and I don't have any extra share of the Confused God Pill here. .”
Commander Wu Mao didn't even raise his head. He buried his head deeply in the soft fragrance and said in a low voice: "You are the Commander of Foreign Affairs, but I am the Commander of Ore. What do these messy things have to do with me?"
The leader of the fire stick looked a little ugly and said: "Of course I know that this matter has nothing to do with you, but this person's position is an extremely important fire-burning boy. I need to apply for a Confused God Pill from above. After the Confused God Pill is issued, , to allow him to enter the weapon refining cave."
"Fire Stick, are you having a brain problem?"
Commander Wu Mao raised his head impatiently and cursed indistinctly, "You are talking nonsense here. Do you have anything to do with me?"
"What do you think about letting him dig ore at your place for a few days before the Confused God Pill is released?" The leader of the fire stick asked for help and was not angry. He slowly said, "Otherwise, I will be very busy here. We cannot place this person temporarily, and it would be bad if something goes wrong.”
"That's all, just take it directly to the mine and talk to the monsters under me."
Commander Wu Mao waved his hand impatiently, turned his head, and continued to enjoy the service of the two girls in gray robes.
After half a stick of incense.
A dirty monster brought Jiang Su to the edge of the mine, handed him a mining pick, and said: "You are the only one in this small mine. I will guard the door. If you are hungry, just tell me." .”
Jiang Su looked back and saw that there were many large and small mines around him. There were people and monsters among them. They all used mysterious energy or demonic power to activate the mining picks, clanging and clanking to dig out the ore.
The mine in front of him was only more than ten feet deep, and it looked empty. Only at the end of the mine were there some exposed mineral veins.
Silently, strands of frost-white flames swirled in Jiang Su's pupils.
"In this vein..."
Jiang Su took the mining pick and walked to the depths of the mine. He quietly looked down at the exposed blue ore, "There is karma!?"
Stretching out his palm, a very thin wisp of karma fire came out and circled on the blue ore. When it turned around again, it was extremely visibly stronger!
And the azure color on top of the cyan ore suddenly became much brighter!
"What is that!? An ore with a purity of 70%?!"
The monster guarding the door was originally drowsy, but the light above the ore made him raise his eyelids and look into the mine with horror!
"You, a human race who has just gained access to Xuan Qi, unexpectedly dug up a piece of green iron ore with a purity of 70%!?"
It strode up to Jiang Su with a look of disbelief on its face!
Jiang Su remained silent, vaguely guessing the real reason for this matter.
This huge ore vein hidden deep underground with lush branches was originally supposed to be an extremely high-quality green iron ore.
Later, due to unknown reasons, it was contaminated with a lot of karma, so it turned into a low-quality mineral vein.
He had just used Karma Fire to absorb the karma from the ore, allowing it to initially reveal its original appearance. Only then did the gatekeeper monster notice the light emitted by the ore.
"This piece of ore is too precious. Just wait here. I'm going to report to Commander Wu Mao and ask for a reward for you!"
The gatekeeper monster picked up the ore and walked out of the mine quickly.
Jiang Su looked at its back with an expressionless face, his mind turbulent, thinking about how to get the most karma here without attracting attention, so as to increase the power of the natural karma fire.
