Mortal: I, Mo Juren

Looking at the top-grade wood spirit stone not far ahead, Mo Fan worked harder to dig.

Soon, a small mine leading to the best spiritual stone appeared under his relentless digging.

As high-level spiritual stones were put into his storage bag along the way, Mo Fan got closer and closer to the top-quality spiritual stones.

After a few breaths, he finally blasted away the last obstructing stone and got the first top-quality wood spiritual stone in his hand.

Once he got the spirit stone, he didn't even take the initiative to activate the technique to absorb it.

A spiritual energy containing rich life breath took the initiative to penetrate into his meridians along his palm.

Suddenly a heat burst out from his meridians and flowed to his whole body.

After one breath, this spiritual energy was absorbed by his body.

However, just such a wisp of spiritual energy that emitted independently, after Mo Fan secretly evaluated it, he found that it could save him at least half an hour of meditation.

If this entire top-quality spiritual stone were absorbed, it would probably save him more than ten years of cultivation time.

Come with one or twenty coins, the middle stage of Nascent Soul is just around the corner!
Thinking of this, Mo Fan was very excited.

He patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a jade box, and put the top-grade wood spirit stone in his hand into it.

After putting away the jade box, he continued digging deeper without taking a moment's rest.

Not only are all kinds of escape techniques unable to be performed in the Lingshi Mine, but the monks' spiritual consciousness is also greatly restricted.

Mo Fan's spiritual consciousness, which surpassed that of many mid-stage Nascent Soul monks, could only extend less than a hundred feet inside this high-level spiritual stone mine.

The range of a hundred feet may seem very wide to mortals, but for an island, it is like putting a sesame seed on the playground.

Unlike when he was exploring the spiritual stone reserve before, his spiritual consciousness was outside and could still rest on the flying sword.

But once inside the spirit stone mines, divine consciousness can only forcefully penetrate these spirit stone mines to cover the rest.

It is also true that most of the people who are usually dispatched to mine spiritual stone mines in the world of immortality are low-level monks or simply dispatch mortal warriors directly.

One reason is that after the high-level monks have their spiritual consciousness restricted here, they can't actually estimate which side has more spiritual stones, so their mining speed is not many times faster than these people.

With Mo Fan's energetic mining, the speed is about dozens of times faster than that of disciples in the later stage of Qi refining.

If he hadn't been familiar with high-level spiritual stones and top-grade spiritual stones, he would never have been able to mine the first top-grade spiritual stone so quickly.

After all, the first top-quality spiritual stone in the original work was discovered after nearly a hundred years of mining.

Of course, this is related to the fact that the monks who mine are all low-level monks, and several major forces intend to control the mining speed.

No sect in the Chaotic Star Sea dares to ask a Nascent Soul monk to come and collect spiritual stones, not even the Star Palace.

But it is enough to show from the side that mining the best spiritual stones is not easy.

Otherwise, no matter how hard these sects control the mining speed, they will not discover the first top-grade spiritual stone 100 years later.

Due to the insufficient range of spiritual consciousness, and after entering the inside of the spirit stone mine, the looming aura of the best spirit stones was everywhere.

Mo Fan was unable to locate the exact location of the next top-quality spiritual stone for a while.

Now he can only rely on intuition to dig forward.

Unfortunately, Zhang Tie was secretly competing with Han Li who was thousands of miles away, trying to see who could advance to the golden elixir first.

No matter what Mo Fan said, he still refused to come down.

Otherwise, Mo Fan would be more inclined to let this guy come down to dig for spiritual stones.

In other homes, the master sits and drinks tea while the apprentice works, but in his case, it's the other way around.

His master was working hard to mine down there, while his apprentice actually sat cross-legged to practice in a place rich in spiritual energy.

Alas, there was no way. Someone else had found the Lingshi Mine. He shook his head helplessly, and Mo Fan continued to control the five flying swords and dig deeper.

Time passed by like this.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

After Mo Fan's continuous mining for half a month, many caves just big enough for one person to pass have appeared under the Lingshi Mine.

During this period, he finally dug out his second top-quality wood spiritual stone.

After half a month of continuous mining, he discovered something that bothered him.

The distribution of these top-quality spiritual stones is almost random.

It doesn't mean that places with many high-level spiritual stones will definitely produce top-quality spiritual stones.

His second top-quality spiritual stone was found among a pile of mid-level spiritual stones.

If he hadn't been familiar with the aura of top-grade spiritual stones, he might have missed this top-grade spiritual stone.

After all, who would have thought that a top-grade spiritual stone would be bred from a pile of mid-level spiritual stone mines that don’t even have a high-level spiritual stone?
It was precisely because of this experience that Mo Fan's mining speed dropped significantly.

In the past, he only dug where the high-level spiritual stones were gathered. Now, in order to avoid missing them, he had to dig carefully into the pile of mid-level spiritual stones.

……

There is no calendar day in the mountains, and the year is unknown when the cold is gone.

In the blink of an eye, about half a year had passed since Mo Fan mined the spirit stones.

After half a year of continuous digging, Mo Fan finally dug out ten top-grade wood spiritual stones.

At this moment, nearly a quarter of the entire Lingshi Mine was opened up by densely packed mine holes, like the branches of a creeping plant.

Mo Fan was about to go to the next dig when he suddenly received a message.

Without thinking much, Mo Fan directly used his spiritual consciousness to explore it.

Now that there are only two people on Biling Island, he and Zhang Tie, the summons must come from Zhang Tie.

This was indeed the case. The messenger was Zhang Tie, who had been meditating for half a year.

The information inside is also simple, he is ready to form an elixir.

Mo Fan was not surprised at all.

After half a year of training in such a place with strong spiritual energy, even a pig can improve his cultivation by several levels.

Not to mention that Zhang Tie was already in the late stage of foundation building before he started practicing.

After half a year of practice, his cultivation had finally reached the level of foundation-building perfection, and he was qualified to form pills.

Seeing that he still lacked half of the top-quality spiritual stones, Mo Fan was not in a hurry.

In a few flashes of his body, he disappeared into the mine.

"Master!" Looking at Mo Fan who appeared out of thin air beside him, Zhang Tie immediately stood up and saluted.

"Well, yes, we have indeed reached the foundation building perfection." After casually glancing at Zhang Tie, Mo Fan saw through his cultivation.

"Do you still remember the experience and precautions for forming pills that I told you last time?"

"Disciple remember." Zhang Tie nodded seriously.

"That's good. Since you already know the experience of forming an elixir, just follow the normal steps to form an elixir. By the way, do you have all the elixirs ready?"

"The elixirs are also ready." Zhang Tie took out a few jade bottles from the storage bag, looked at them, and nodded again.

"Well, let's get started." Seeing that Zhang Tie was ready, Mo Fan said no more.

"Master, um... don't I need to change the place to form the elixir? Will forming the elixir here attract other monks or monsters? Don't expose the spirit stone mine then."

Seeing that Mo Fan didn't mention going to other islands to form pills, Zhang Tie mentioned it weakly.

"How could this island be so desolate and attract..., but it would be better to find another place to form elixirs." Just when he was about to say that this island was so desolate and remote, it was impossible to attract other monks, when Mo Fan suddenly thought of Zhang Tie's spirit, which seemed to be possessed by the European Emperor. As luck would have it, he finally changed his mind.

Everything about time travel has already happened to him, and metaphysics is not normal at all.

Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible to attract other monks.

After all, the celestial phenomena of the formation of the elixir only appeared in the short period of time when the golden elixir was first condensed. The previous three years were no different from ordinary seclusion practice.

But Zhang Tie said so, and Mo Fan also chose to believe his intuition with a mentality of preferring to believe what he had or not.

Soon the two of them turned into a five-color escaping light and disappeared on Biling Island.

a day later.

The two landed on another deserted island near Biling Island that also had no aura at all.

Considering that he would have to return to Biling Island to mine later, in order to prevent Zhang Tie from having an accident while he was away, Mo Fan began to arrange the formation after putting Zhang Tie down.

half a month later.

A defensive formation capable of withstanding the joint attacks of multiple Jindan Perfection was raised on the deserted island.

At the same time, there was a spirit gathering array in the cave where Zhang Tie was preparing to retreat.

It stands to reason that the demand for spiritual energy for forming pills is not high, and the pills taken can provide enough spiritual energy, so there is no need for the spirit gathering array.

But now that Mo Fan is wealthy and able to find Biling Island so easily thanks to Zhang Tie, he is too lazy to consider whether setting up the spirit gathering array is a bit extravagant and wasteful.

After all, you can't chill the hero's heart, even if this person is the apprentice you helped change his destiny.

"Master, I have finished adjusting my condition."

During the half month that Mo Fan set up the formation, Zhang Tie finally adjusted his energy and spirit to the peak, opened his closed eyes, looked at Mo Fan with vigor and said.

"Then just feel free to break through, and leave the rest to your master."

After Mo Fan left a word, he took a few steps and reached the top of the desert island, standing in the air with his hands behind his back.

Looking up at the figure in the air that was not majestic, but concealed an aura that could swallow mountains and rivers, Zhang Tie felt much relieved.

Although this island seems to be in no danger now, it is still within the depths of the outer star sea.

Unlike the inner star sea controlled by humans, the transformed monsters in the outer star sea are not uncommon.

In the past, they might not come to this deserted island without spiritual energy, but once the alchemy celestial phenomenon appears, they can be slightly sensed within a radius of several thousand miles.

If any curious transformed monster happened to pass by, he would be in trouble.

Fortunately, there was a master here this time, otherwise he wouldn't dare to form pills alone in the outer star sea no matter what.

"call--"

After taking a long breath, Zhang Tie put aside the worries in his heart, picked up a jade bottle in front of him, poured out the elixir inside, drank it, and began to form the elixir.

After Zhang Tie started forming pills, Mo Fan did not stay in the air any longer.

Just now, he was just showing off to reassure Zhang Tie that he could form pills.

Now that Zhang Tie has gathered his mind and started, there is no need for him to stay in mid-air.

There are still ten useless spiritual stones in his storage bag.

I just happened to take this opportunity to use these ten top-quality spiritual stones first.

He was also curious about how much a complete top-quality spiritual stone could improve his cultivation.

With a trace of curiosity and excitement, Mo Fan flashed and landed on the highest mountain on the desert island.

After sitting cross-legged, he took out a top-quality wood spirit stone from his storage bag.

As soon as the thought occurs, the five elements skills in the body start to rotate.

Suddenly a powerful suction force burst out from his palm.

Under the action of suction, wisps of extremely rich spiritual energy in the top-grade wood spiritual stone instantly turned into spiritual snakes and burrowed into its meridians.

Following the meridians, these spiritual snakes did not even need the guidance of techniques, and took the initiative to escape into Mo Fan's Dantian in a few moments.

Under the transformation of the Five Elements Kung Fu, it turned into the power of the Five Elements and became a part of his cultivation.

Feeling the unprecedented speed of cultivation, Mo Fan was filled with emotion.

In the entire human world, he, Mo Fan, is the only one who is willing to use the best spiritual stones for cultivation, right?

After Old Demon Han obtained the top-quality spiritual stone, he was only willing to use it to activate magic weapons and set up formations, but was not willing to use it for cultivation.

But I have to say that cultivating the best spiritual stones is really fast.

Of course, compared with his golden finger directly extracting cultivation, it is naturally still inferior.

But compared to other normal ways, it is much faster.

Even some elixirs cannot compare with the best spiritual stones.

After all, the spiritual energy in the elixir has some impurities, and it needs to be transformed through the meridians using exercises.

But this top-quality spiritual stone was not used at all. He directly skipped this step and penetrated into the Dantian to transform into cultivation.

If it weren't for the Five Elements Cultivation Technique that Mo Fan practiced and had to convert the wood spiritual energy into the power of the Five Elements, the speed of this practice would have been even faster.

In this way, time passed little by little as Mo Fan practiced at high speed.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

The first top quality wood spirit stone was finally completely consumed by Mo Fan greedily absorbing it.

Instead of worrying about the consumption of the best spiritual stones, Mo Fan silently felt the improvement in his cultivation.

His cultivation level actually increased by nearly 5.00%.

In other words, almost twenty top-quality spiritual stones can raise his cultivation level to the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul.

As long as he breaks through the bottleneck, he can successfully enter the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

At present, he has only searched a quarter of Biling Island and got ten top-grade spiritual stones.

According to normal circumstances, there should be thirty more top-quality spiritual stones in the remaining parts.

It was completely enough for him to break through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

And when he successfully advances to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, his soul will inevitably experience a growth.

Then maybe Gold Finger will be able to extract the best spiritual stones.

With the entire Biling Island as a high-level spiritual stone mine, it would not be a problem for him to even break through to the late Nascent Soul stage!
Thinking of this, Mo Fan suddenly became short of breath.

What the hell, based on this reasoning, his Nascent Soul cultivation level seems to be improving faster than the Golden Core stage.

It took others hundreds of years to advance to a small realm, but he advanced to a small realm in just a few years.

"call--"

Taking a long breath and suppressing the excitement in his heart, Mo Fan took out the second top-quality spiritual stone and absorbed it.

……

The water flows in the east, and the leaves fall.

In a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

After the tenth top-quality wood spirit stone was absorbed by Mo Fan, his cultivation level also increased to half of the initial stage of Nascent Soul. (End of chapter)
