Seeing the other party's expression, Lu Li stopped talking nonsense and said bluntly: "I heard that you have a treasure that can be used to detect ores?"
"Yes, it is."
Zhou Zheng didn't dare to be mean, so he took out a cylindrical object and handed it to Lu Li respectfully: "That's it. As long as you put in some spiritual stones, you can sense the ore within ten miles..."
"oh?"
Lu Li's eyes lit up, he took the object over and looked at it carefully.
This object is cylindrical in shape, about a foot long, with a bronze carved surface, a slightly larger front end, a scarlet gemstone inlaid inside, and a spiral tail cap at the end.
Lu Li unscrewed the tail cap and took a look, and found that the inside was hollow and foggy. Zhou Zheng introduced that there were Xumi runes inside, and spiritual stones could be put into it.
But the space is not big, and it can only accommodate about 10,000 medium-grade spiritual stones.
Lu Li screwed the tail cap back and saw a few small words behind the tail cap: "Yuanci Baoyi?"
"Well, this junior also calls it Yuanci Baoyi. This thing is quite good. I have used it to find a lot of ores." Zhou Zheng said with some reluctance as he looked at the cylinder in Lu Li's hand.
To be honest, a large part of the reason why he, a four-spirited casual cultivator, was able to cultivate to this level was because of this Yuanci treasure. However, unexpectedly, the news that he owned this object leaked out.
However, if Lu Li hadn't taken action today, he would have died. This thing could be regarded as playing some residual heat in the last moment of accompanying him.
"How to use this thing?" Lu Li looked at Zhou Zheng and asked.
"It's very simple. Just inject the spirit stone and then press the mechanism, and it will automatically sense the location of the surrounding ores." Zhou Zheng said, pointing to a small round bump on the barrel.
"I see."
Lu Li secretly marveled, then he took out 10,000 medium-grade spiritual stones and threw them into the Sumeru space at the tail. Then he pressed the power button, and according to Zhou Zheng, he held up the Yuanci Treasure Instrument and scanned the surrounding mountains.
I don’t know if it’s because there are no ores here, but after scanning around, there was no response from Yuanci Baoyi.
Suddenly, Lu Li rolled his eyes and seemed to remember something. Then he took out a ball of snow-white fine iron that was smoking cold, and then tossed it casually. The Soul-Duling Cold Iron suddenly turned into a stream of light and flew to a place about ten miles away. In a small pit.
Then, Lu Li held up the Yuanci Baoyi and looked in the direction of Du Linghan Iron.
After this detection, the Yuanci Treasure Instrument immediately responded. The scarlet gem inlaid in the front horn suddenly shot out a crimson light, pointing directly in the direction of Dulinghan Iron without any deviation.
“It actually works!”
Lu Li was overjoyed when he saw this, and then changed the direction of the Spirit Crossing Iron and tried it again.
In the end, he found that no matter how he changed his position, the Yuanci Treasure Instrument could accurately identify it, and then he took back the Spiritual Cold Iron with satisfaction.
"This is a good thing. Tell me how many spiritual stones you want." Lu Li put away his expression and looked at Zhou Zheng calmly and asked.
"Senior just saved this junior's life, this is a gift to repay senior. You can just take it." Zhou Zheng said seemingly generously.
"I don't even know what to say about you."
Lu Li shook his head, then took out a storage ring and stuffed it into Zhou Zheng's hand: "This is five million middle-grade spiritual stones. It doesn't matter whether you think it's more or less. Anyway, this is what I will give you!"
"Five...five million mid-grade!"
Zhou Zheng's hand shook and he almost lost the storage ring. He flipped it from left hand to right hand twice before holding it firmly: "Thank you, senior, for the reward! Thank you, senior!"
They are all middle-grade spiritual stones. I am afraid this is enough for him to reach the peak level of foundation building. There are even... more?
Seeing that the other party was very satisfied, Lu Li said nothing more and disappeared without a trace in a flash.
The next moment, he arrived at the central area of Ziyang Mountain. He held the Yuanci Treasure Instrument and began to explore the mountains at his feet. After a period of inspections with no results, Lu Li moved around again and came to another place to continue exploring.
After going back and forth like this, in just two or three hours, Lu Li had explored the entire Ziyang Mountain.
But unfortunately, after working for so long, not even a piece of ore was found.
Lu Li thought that this might be because the Yuanci Baoyi could only detect ten miles, so he decided to go inside the mountains and have a look.
Then, he sacrificed the white jade hand bones, and the white jade hand bones dug the tunnel in front, while he was in the back, collecting the dug soil into the storage ring for temporary storage, so as not to block the passage.
At the same time, he kept searching and moving forward while holding the Yuanci Baoyi.
At the beginning, Lu Li thought it was nothing, but as time went by, Lu Li got tired of collecting the soil, so he simply called Jianpi out and helped him collect the soil.
With this division of labor, Lu Li immediately felt much more relaxed.
The white jade hand bones were responsible for digging, the hard skin was responsible for collecting it, and he was responsible for exploring. In this way, in a short time, Lu Li dug a passage that was hundreds of miles long.
But what disappoints him is that so far, there is still no harvest.
This made him wonder, is this Yuanci Baoyi really effective? Or maybe there is no ore here at all.
"Damn it! It's so dazzling!"
At this moment, Jianpi suddenly let out a strange scream and covered his left eye.
Lu Li's face darkened, and he was about to scold Jianpi, but suddenly he found that the back of Jianpi's hand that was covering his eyes was red. After looking closely, he realized that it was the light emitted by Yuanci Baoyi.
"found it?!"
Lu Li was overjoyed and pulled Jianpi aside, then he connected with the white jade hand bones and dug towards the light.
Just as Lu Li expected, the ten-mile-long passage was quickly completed.
At this time, Lu Li finally saw the thing that triggered the Yuan Magnetic Treasure.
This is a palm-sized ball of golden ore. After falling from the soil, it immediately bloomed with a white light. It looked really good.
"It's not bad, but the quality is a bit low."
Lu Li looked at the ore with gleaming eyes. It was a sun-burning fine gold stone, which was a rare type of offensive ore. Unfortunately, it was not evolved well enough and was only at the second level.
With this beginning, Lu Li was finally sure that the Yuanci Treasure Instrument was really effective, so he ordered the white jade hand bones to continue working.
Since the upper half of Ziyang Mountain was almost explored, Lu Li decided to go down diagonally this time to see if there would be any unexpected gains under Ziyang Mountain.
This excavation lasted for more than ten days, and the passage was already unfathomable. Even the storage ring containing soil took a full thirteen days.
In the process, Lu Li obtained another piece of third-level sun-burning fine gold. The harvest was neither big nor small, but at this moment, Yuanci Baoyi lit up again.
The direction pointed was actually at Lu Li's feet...
