Lin Yan's strength was frightening. Under the force of thousands of kilograms, these hard stone skins were suddenly like paper, being pulled off bit by bit. After about a few minutes, Lin Yan took a crystal-clear stone, as big as a fist, in his hand. It was a finished spiritual stone. Although it was only a low-grade one, Lin Yan could feel the flaws of the spiritual stone within it. The aura is more pure and will not fade away with time.
This is one of the most common treasures in the world. It is a jade stone with pure spiritual energy. Besides the spiritual stone, it has complete protection to ensure that the spiritual energy is not lost.
"One was mined so quickly?" Tu Shan said in shock. It only took so long for him to have harvested something. On the contrary, he, an old miner, was holding him back. He had not yet harvested anything after entering the mine.
"It's quite simple." Lin Yan said with a smile, but Tu Shan was speechless for a while. If the mining was really as easy as Lin Yan, they wouldn't have to worry about completing their daily tasks.
He figured out that this new junior fellow apprentice, who seemed to have a low level of cultivation, was not only powerful compared to Chu Kuang, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, he could even mine with ease, and had abilities that were different from ordinary people.
He no longer cares about Lin Yan. If he continues to look at it, he may think that mining the spirit stone mine is an easy task.
Relying on the techniques explained by Tu Shan, Lin Yan began to concentrate on mining. With continuous practice, he also continued to explore some techniques in the mining process and observed some lines in the stone skin.
These are all naturally formed lines between heaven and earth. They seem useless, but they have a great truth. They are branches of the mountain and forest veins, but there are not enough lines and sources of power to activate these lines. Although it was useless, it allowed Lin Yan to slowly find a way to speed up mining.
Just like a cook unloading an ox, he mines rocks along the grains, speeding up a lot.
In less than a morning, all one hundred spiritual stones were mined, and twelve defective spiritual stones also fell into Lin Yan's pocket.
After finishing someone else's day's work in half a day, Tushan was almost furious. Is this still a human being?
A siren suddenly sounded. It was the disciple delivering food outside signaling that it was lunch time.
Lin Yan took the food and ate it at the side. Tu Shan originally wanted to join him, but was called away by Chu Kuang to ask some questions.
Lin Yan had an extraordinary ear, and when he heard something, he was simply asking about his mining speed, whether he was lazy or something like that. Tu Shan hesitated. He originally wanted to talk about Lin Yan's terrifying mining speed, but when he thought of Chu Kuang and his There was a grudge, so he said normal mining, and Chu Kuang left with a disappointed look on his face.
Walking to Lin Yan's side, Tu Shan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's over, it's over. Boss Chu is eyeing you. Just now, you asked me how your speed is. If something is wrong, I might have to borrow it." The opportunity is trying to embarrass you." Chu Kuang is the mine leader. Although the position of the mine leader of each mine is low and of little use, it also has some small rights. If he takes this small position to take advantage of the situation, it may not hurt his muscles. It was bone-breaking, but it would definitely make Lin Yan feel like eating shit.
"If he is willing to make some small moves, then let him come over." Lin Yan shook his head and said, "Such small tricks are of no use to me."
"Junior brother Lin, you are so relieved." Tu Shan smiled bitterly, but he and Lin Yan had only known each other for a day or two, and they had not gone to the extent of advising him. Since the victim didn't care, he had no position to advise.
After filling our stomachs and taking a short rest, everyone enjoyed themselves one by one.
Lin Yan dug more than ten spiritual stones, put the results aside, and then sat cross-legged in front of a dug mine wall, meditating and practicing.
Although the defective spiritual stones are extremely helpful to his cultivation, if too many spiritual stones are dug out every day, it will probably arouse a lot of suspicion. It is better to take advantage of the time of going to the mine to use the mine to be 50-60% higher than the outside world. Cultivation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can also improve a lot of cultivation.
The qi-nourishing skill in the body is constantly running, and the magic power is constantly flowing, constantly refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that is breathed into the body with the breath into magic power. The density of spiritual energy in the mine is much denser than outside, but Lin Yan also found that his talent for cultivating immortals was far inferior to his talent for martial arts. Even with extremely dense spiritual energy, the speed of refining mana was still very slow.
After practicing for three or four hours, the magic power in Lin Yan's body didn't seem to have increased at all. If Lin Yan hadn't been very sensitive and could detect that there was indeed a slight increase in the magic power in his body, he would have almost doubted whether he had done anything for the past three or four hours. Useless effort.
Lin Yan is not an impatient person. He also knows that his talent for cultivating immortals is not very good. If he wants to improve this situation, he may need some external help. It's a pity that he has already taken some cultivation elixirs such as Yiqi Pill, but he is still practicing at this speed. Although Qi Yi Dan is helpful for increasing mana, it is essentially just a pill that strengthens the foundation and cultivates energy. He needs to find some elixirs that can directly increase mana, preferably pills. In this way, with his ability to make elixirs, he will inevitably These elixirs can be refined in batches to prepare for cultivation needs.
Suddenly, the same siren sounded as at noon. Not long after, Tushan arranged his tools and came out of the corridor, with a trace of sadness on his face.
Lin Yan stood up and said with a smile: "What's wrong? You look sad."
Tushan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to eat tomorrow. I still have a few shares left to complete the task today."
"How much difference?" Lin Yan was quite surprised. Tu Shan's cultivation level is not weak. He is at the sixth level of Qi refining. With such cultivation level, wouldn't it be easy to use magic weapons to dig out spiritual stones?
"It was a little slower today, only ninety-eight." Tu Shan said, "I was a little unlucky today. I dug all the way along the corridor and found some hot stones. It took a long time." Lin Yan took two pieces from the basket. The spirit stone was thrown to Tu Shan. Tu Shan looked surprised and said: "Junior brother Lin, what is this for..."
Lin Yan stood up and said with a smile: "Consider it my reward for teaching me how to mine today." Then he thought of the "hot stone" Tu Shan had just said, and asked curiously, "What is warm stone?"
Tu Shan knew that Lin Yan was afraid that he would be punished, so he did not refuse. He thanked him and then said: "Don't mention how unlucky it is. This warm stone is an accompanying stone that is occasionally born in the spirit stone veins. It is warm when touched. It's hot, so it's called warm stone. This kind of warm stone is extremely hard, on par with spiritual stones, so it's very difficult to dig. Anyone who encounters this kind of warm stone when digging for spiritual stones will be in bad luck." He started talking. With a wave, he took out a basket of waste rocks from the storage bag, dropped it on the ground, took a jade-like stone from it, and handed it to Lin Yan.
When Lin Yan saw the rich vitality of heaven and earth rising above the warm stone, his heart skipped a beat. The next moment, a burst of ecstasy surged through his heart.
This is a primeval stone!
Yuan stones actually appear in this vein! Could it be that this vein is not just a vein of spirit stone, but also a vein of elemental stone?
"Is this kind of warm stone a waste stone?" Lin Yan asked tentatively as he took the Yuan Stone, ecstatic in his heart but with a calm expression on his face.
He knew in his heart that immortal cultivators could not sense the vitality of heaven and earth. Because this kind of Yuan Stone contained the vitality of heaven and earth, it felt a little warm to the touch. This is probably why it got its name, and was treated as waste stone by these monks.
"Yes, and there are quite a lot of them. About a hundred of them can be unearthed every three or four days. For mortals, this kind of warm stone is a kind of sacred stone. Keeping it with you can strengthen your body and be invulnerable to all poisons. Even It can drive away evil spirits, avoid disasters, and prolong life. But for us monks, warm stone is a kind of waste stone. It has no effect except to make it a little harder. Moreover, carrying it around will interfere with the gathering of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. When monks practice, if they keep it around them If you wear a piece of warm stone, it will be difficult to condense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth." Tu Shan said, "This kind of warm stone also looks like a spiritual stone. It is also very hard and difficult to mine. So basically encountering this kind of warm stone means that it will be difficult to complete the work on that day. Mission accomplished.”
Lin Yan nodded. Yuan stones and spiritual stones are very similar. They are both jade stones that gather the power of heaven and earth. However, the power they contain is different. One is the vitality of heaven and earth, and the other is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In addition to using spiritual consciousness or telekinesis, Can only be told by touch. The Yuan Stone is warm to the touch, while the Spirit Stone is cold to the touch.
"Since they are waste stones, if I take these warm stones, will I violate the sect's rules?" Lin Yan asked.
"Of course not. This thing is quite useful for the handyman disciples who practice martial arts. If they are the handyman disciples in the mine, these warm stones are rewarded to them. One stone of this thing is enough for a mortal, so basically These warm stones are treated as waste stones." Tu Shan said, "Junior brother Lin is interested in this stone."
"This stone is interesting and may be useful." Lin Yan said with a smile, "Brother Tu, why don't you trade these warm stones to me? If you mine the warm stones in the future, I will trade them with spiritual stones. How about that?"
Tu Shan said in shock: "Junior brother, you are at a huge disadvantage. How can this hot stone compare to the spiritual stone? But Junior Brother Lin wants this stone. If he mines it in the future, he can just ask me for it. Why exchange it with the spiritual stone? There are seven or eight warm stones in this basket of waste rocks. Look for them and take them all away."
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Thank you, senior brother." Lin Yan rummaged through the ore basket for a while, then found all the primeval stones and put them into the storage bag.
With these Yuan Stones, his martial arts training will be able to advance rapidly, and his innate breakthrough will be just around the corner.
After collecting the Yuan Stone and the Spiritual Stone in the storage bag, Lin Yan and Tu Shan left the mine together.
The disciples responsible for delivering meals have been waiting for a long time and are responsible for collecting all the spirit stones and making statistics. The disciples who did not complete the task will be punished the next day.
The disciple in charge of the test was holding a bamboo slip-shaped magic weapon and using his magic power to record the results. The bamboo slips were glowing with magic power. Lin Yan's number of spiritual stones exceeded the mission requirements by more than ten, which also shocked many veteran mine disciples.
A newcomer can actually complete the task and exceed the task by so much. Even the disciples who have been here for more than a year and have extremely rich mining experience are still inferior.
"New disciple? The mine was actually able to complete the task on the first day." The disciple in charge of recording looked at the recorded information on the bamboo slips and was a little surprised.
When a newcomer joins the mine, sometimes it is considered good if he can complete half of the task indicators. Therefore, there will be a seven-day inspection period for the newcomer. During the inspection period, the prescribed amount of tasks is halved, but the new disciple in front of him has successfully completed it. The veteran disciple's tasks exceeded more than ten, how could he not be surprised.
