Chapter 299 Summoning, Giant Treasure

Half a month later, the main team of monks who were hunting down the remaining enemies returned to the Gem City one after another. They brushed off the dust of the journey, calmed down their murderous aura, and quietly cultivated themselves, waiting for rewards after the war.

Xu Yuanchang was invited to attend a meeting in the main hall, but Gu Yunzhu was practicing in seclusion and did not go with him.

There was an extra seat at the top of the hall. Lin Jin, the former master of the Monster-Catching Mountain, sat at the end on the right. He smiled and nodded at Xu Yuan who was bowing and greeting him. Having crossed that hurdle and advanced to a new world, his long-cherished wish had come true. Lin Jin's whole body was filled with surging energy, and his face had a calm look as if he had seen through the world.

The old sword master briefly reported the brilliant results achieved by various teams. He had opened up the area between Liuling City, the stronghold of Juzhou, and Shengyue City, the stronghold of Hezhou. The coalition forces of the three continents destroyed the strongholds of Buxiyu and Bujieyu in the Dark Realm, which had suffered heavy losses.

He swept away the remaining Black Spirit troops and drove them to a more remote base in the Dark Realm.

An area of ​​more than 100,000 miles was completely controlled by Dingzhou, Juzhou and Hezhou.

The three continents' forces were able to draw topographic maps and roughly divide the areas they were to gain, but the specific details were still to be negotiated.

The Gem City dispatched four teams to occupy the ruins of the opposite Buli Domain's base in the Dark Realm. They are currently constructing a city and building a protective formation to completely block its entry and exit.

"...Within ten years, there will be no major wars. We must work together to protect the resources we have, accelerate the improvement of our overall strength, and strive for an advantage for the next three thousand years for our descendants."

The old sword master ended this brief meeting with powerful words.

There were many complicated affairs after the war, including providing compensation to the monks who died on the battlefield, holding public memorial services, arranging for masters to lead teams to patrol the territory in turns, sending a large number of people out to explore for mineral resources, building small cities in strategic locations, connecting them into pieces with dark formations, and so on.

Most of the monks in the fifth floor have to take care of a lot of things and cannot relax for a moment.

Xu Yuanchang greeted a dozen people he was familiar with, and he did not stay to attend the small circle of high-level meetings of the old sword master and his companions.

He walked out of the hall side by side with Yu Fengwu, and the two talked in low voices.

After the war, Yu Fengwu will lead some monks back to Gucheng outside the passage. She is responsible for maintaining the stability of Dingzhou. She has to supervise the distribution of resources to various dynasties, arrange monks from the Law Enforcement Hall to inspect the area, and oversee the selection and training of low-level monks from various places.

For example, the Da Ning Dynasty was ruled by Elder Mei Yuanjian, and each sect also left behind a small number of cultivators to ensure that the place remained in order.

He watched Yu Fengwu fly to a valley thirty miles away from the city. His disciple, who was a monk from the Zhilu Hall, would also return to Gucheng with Yu Fengwu. They came and went in a hurry and they only met once.

"Source Chief."

Meng Shanhe greeted him and introduced the thin old man in black robe beside him with a smile, saying, "This is Mr. Shu Zhongwangshu from Jianshan Country. His unworthy junior acted recklessly and caused you inconvenience. He wants to apologize to you in person."

The thin old man had a kind face and took the initiative to apologize with his hands clasped, "I failed to discipline Shu Shiming strictly, which led to the young Shu Shiming acting arrogantly and domineeringly. He has a great moral loss and has offended Fellow Daoist Xu time and again. I am ashamed in my heart, ashamed!"

Xu Yuanchang glanced at Master Meng, who was smiling somewhat helplessly, and returned the greeting, "The matter has long been settled. Mr. Shu and I are now working together for Dingzhou. We should work together to move forward. The unpleasantness in the past should be forgotten and not mentioned again."

More than ten years ago, he took Zeng Shanlang on a journey of asceticism. Shu Shiming, the playboy, as a descendant of a noble family in Jianshan State, sent people to follow and hunt them down. Later, they entered the thousands of mountains and hills. Shu Shiming personally led people to hunt them down all the way to the wallless city of Shanyang State.

They intercepted people in the street and forcefully demanded to buy the small tree spirit, with an extremely arrogant attitude.

He caught the evidence and spread the news through the monster hunters.

Yu Fengwu was brought in to investigate the case, and he hanged Shu Shiming and his accomplices with lightning speed, leaving their bodies exposed on the cliffs of the Wuqiang City. He also severely punished Shu Zhongwang, the ancestor of the Shu family, for the crime of disrespecting the holy land of the ancestral temple. He made him reflect on his mistakes for a hundred years and ordered the Shu family to hand over 30% of their treasure house.

Later, because the door to the dark world was about to open, the Xiyuan Holy Land allowed Shu Zhongwang to go down the mountain and make amends for his crime.

Meng Shanhe took over the conversation and acted as a peacemaker, saying, "It is better to resolve a feud than to create one. Let's just put this little thing behind us and sit down and have a drink together next time."

How could he not know Old Man Shu's little thoughts? The situation was stronger than the person. Young Xu had more and more backers, all of whom were masters of the Sixth Floor. In addition, there was the mysterious Gu Yunzhu. Old Man Shu was worried that the war would be temporarily over, and after the interests were divided, he would be ambushed and retaliated against from behind when walking in the wild in the vast dark world.

If you apologize in person, you will lose a piece of meat and a little face.

The old guy who has lived for hundreds of years knows how to calculate the pros and cons.

Shu Zhongwang lowered his attitude. Now the fifth-floor monks were not as valuable as before, and the road to the upper level was still difficult. He smiled and said, "Shu happened to have two jars of fine wine from five hundred years ago. Let's sit down and drink and talk about the mysteries and exchange our experiences in cultivation when we have some free time."

Xu Yuanchang was a person who believed in "I will not offend others unless they offend me", so he said a few polite words and tried to smooth over the situation.

He and Shu Zhongwang could not become true friends, so it was enough for them to get along peacefully on the surface.

When I returned to the yard of my residence, I saw that my nephew had gone home and was chatting with Liu Xianfeng in the main hall. The old yellow dog and the golden toad door god were lying on the left and right under the eaves. After going out, my nephew had shed some of his previous unruly and frivolousness. He became more reserved and revealed the roughness of having experienced life and death battles.

"Uncle Three."

"Sit down, we're family, you're welcome."

Xu Yuanchang held down his nephew who was about to stand up and salute. After he sat down, he stretched out his hand to rub the cold forehead where the snow grains had rubbed against his trouser legs under the table, and said, "I heard from Uncle Meng, how many times have you been injured? Don't leave any hidden dangers or diseases."

Xu Shengtian smiled carefreely and said, "I have been away for half a month. When I was stationed to rest, I went to see Doctor Xie from the Fifth Floor for treatment twice. I have recovered after taking the healing pills prescribed by the doctor. Don't worry, Uncle San."

Changing the subject, he said, "I heard that this time, according to the merit-based rewards, more than ten masters with great contributions can be assigned to the mines individually, and the other one hundred or so fifth-level masters can share the mining rights of the mines in groups of three or five. Uncle, with the great contributions you and Junior Sister have made, you should be able to have priority in choosing the benefits of the resource mines."

Xu Yuanchang laughed and scolded: "You are well-informed, don't beat around the bush, just tell me what's going on."

Uncle Meng received instructions from the old Sword Saint and informed him in advance that he had the priority to choose on behalf of Gu Yunzhu.

After a few days, Meng Shanhe will give him the mining information he has obtained.

Xu Shengtian chuckled and said, "On the way back, I followed Lao Jin and the others from Daqiling and visited many places. There was a fifth-tier mine they marked as 'Fucailing'. There should be good stuff hidden deep underground, but they haven't explored it yet."

He learned a lot of practical knowledge from the prospectors in Daqiling.

He is close to earth, mountains, rocks and the like, and the magical powers he has cultivated make him extremely sensitive to earth-based treasures.

Liu Xianfeng's eyes suddenly brightened, and he asked, "How big is the fifth-level mine?"

"That's a mixed mine, about ten miles long, mainly composed of fifth-level Yingcai crystals, accompanied by spiritual jade, earth crystals, Bichao Mithril, dark gold brilliant stones, etc. Based on Lao Jin's experience, the depth of the available minerals can be mined to at least two hundred feet."

"Wow, I'm rich, very rich."

Liu Xianfeng laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared, and asked, "According to your feeling, is there a sixth-level treasure hidden deep in Fucai Ridge?"

"It's a strange feeling, as if some treasure is vaguely calling me. If it weren't for the formation and the monks guarding it, I would have wanted to sneak underground to see it first."

"That's right, trust your instincts."

Liu Xianfeng became more and more excited and shouted, "Sir, let's choose Fu Cailing."

Xu Yuanchang deliberately said: "You have to ask Yunzhu first, I can't make the decision for her." The door of the west wing creaked open, and Gu Yunzhu walked out softly and smiled: "What's the matter? It's so lively today, my senior brother is back."

Liu Xianfeng rushed out of the main room before Xu Shengtian and started chattering to Gu Yunzhu who had just come out of seclusion.

Xu Yuanchang tickled Xueli's belly and turned it over. The three people over there had already decided on the important matter. With Gu Yunzhu's personality, he would not care about a mere fifth-level mine. As long as everyone was happy, that was all that mattered.

Twenty days passed in a blink of an eye. Meng Shanhe brought a map of the distribution of mines within a radius of 20,000 miles and gave a detailed explanation of the best ten or so mines. After drinking a pot of tea, he got accurate information from Xu Yuanchang and went back to report.

This avoids internal selection conflicts.

We are still working to clear out the remaining black spirits hiding in the territory.

The three continents are powerful, and the black spirits in the north dare not go south, so there will not be a major war in the short term.

At the end of April, Xu Yuanchang and Gu Yunzhu officially received the reward from the Fucailing Mine. Liu Xianfeng specially called Grandma Jiaoteng, and the group flew nearly ten thousand miles to the northeast and arrived at Fucailing, where the vegetation was sparse and short.

After handing over documents with the monks stationed in the fourth-story building, Xu Yuanchang took over Fu Cailing and the one hundred monks stationed there, and sent the monks from the fourth-story building back.

If you need to hire low-level monks as miners later, you have to go to the Gem City to sign an agreement and pay the miners according to the market price.

Liu Xianfeng pulled Gu Yunzhu and Grandma Jiaoteng to remove the existing formation. They wanted to rearrange the formation and discussed planting flowers, plants and trees. For the next hundred years, this would be their place of practice, so it had to be arranged to be beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Old Yellow Dog, Golden Toad and Snow Grain roamed around in their own territory, choosing their favorite place to make their nest.

Some of the peaks of Fucailing reveal a dim glow of minerals, hence the name.

Xu Shengtian used his magical power to dive into the rocks. Half a minute later, he emerged with a look of surprise and said, "The mine below is a whole piece of colorful crystal stones. I can't find any gaps and can't get in. Uncle, we've made a fortune."

As he dove deeper, the feeling of being called became stronger.

There must be rare treasures hidden inside.

The one hundred garrison monks had been sent to set up camp five miles away, so they were not needed to patrol all day.

Liu Xianfeng flew over upon hearing the sound of the wind, and excitedly urged the nearby tree roots to explore deeper. She loved treasure hunting, especially the treasures on her own land. She whispered, "Sir, we need to hire more miners. I heard that mining monks are in short supply."

Xu Yuanchang released three avatars and forty or fifty second-level bean soldiers, saying, "It is difficult for low-level miners to dig up fourth- and fifth-level ores. We will not hire anyone for now. We will dig by ourselves. When we get tired of digging, we will hire someone to come and mine."

"This is a good idea. After practicing, we need to hone our skills, and mining is a good way to do it."

Xu Shengtian agreed loudly. He liked the atmosphere gathered in Fucai Ridge.

The matter was settled without any dispute.

It took more than ten days for everyone to set up the formation, and used magic to build caves, tree houses, stone courtyards and other places for practice. Three fourth-level incarnations worked hard to open three mining tunnels and led the bean soldiers to mine day and night.

There is only one problem. The energy of the second-level bean soldiers will be consumed in three days and they need to be replenished.

While everyone was practicing, they dug their own mines around Fucai Ridge. In the words of Chief Xu Yuan, whoever dug the mine owned it.

My goodness! The old yellow dog, the golden toad and even the lazy snow grain were all very energetic. They dug with their claws, dug with magic, and gnawed with their mouths. They used all kinds of methods together.

The most leisurely one is Gu Yunzhu. She likes to watch Liu Xianfeng mining and chat with him.

There is no place in life where there is no practice, and she has long passed the pursuit of materials.

The happiest one is Xu Yuanchang. He has dozens of bean soldiers and avatars who are mining non-stop. He can make a fortune just by lying down.

Every day he fed low-level spiritual jade to nourish the prototype of the Creation Altar, slowly restored the damaged incarnation, practiced his lessons, studied the jade slips left to him by Lao Li, practiced flying knives, and drew talismans and wrote.

Occasionally old friends come to visit, we drink tea and chat, and the days are like heaven.

Five years have passed in a flash.

Fucai Ridge is lush and green, with colorful flowers dotted among the pavilions and stone pavilions.

Mining is no longer the pastime for people to pass their time after practicing. It seems that everyone has piles of spiritual jade, earth crystal, green tide mithril, dark gold stone, colorful crystal stone and other materials. Gu Yunzhu, who is not mining, has several rooms full of materials.

Some were given by my senior brother, some were given by Xianfeng, and the most was given by Taoist Master Xu.

You can’t say no, otherwise I’d be a bad friend.

The old yellow dog slept on the pile of materials all day long, eating and sleeping, and miraculously broke through to the third level.

In Liu Xianfeng's joking words, it was simply burst, and only she knew about it. Sister Yunzhu helped her secretly for her sake.

"Yuan Bao's cultivation from now on will stop at the third level, and there will be no further improvement."

"It is a great fortune to be able to live another two or three hundred years."

Now that everyone has become rich, they have lost the fun of mining and picking up shiny stones. There are four avatars to do the work for them, and they are just too lazy to do it.

No wonder the monks in ancient times were so extravagant as to pave the ground with spiritual jade.

There are just too many to put anywhere.

Granny Jiao Teng takes care of flowers, plants and trees every day and refines exquisite magic weapons. She only needs to wait until eighty years later, when the Flower Festival begins in the Wuqiu Mountains. She will enter the secret realm through the path among flowers, and then go to the realm of the flower god to fulfill her wish.

Perhaps Liu Xianfeng could advance to the fifth level, and she wanted to persuade Liu Xianfeng to go with her.

Xu Yuanchang, Liu Xianfeng, Gu Yunzhu and Xu Shengtian gathered in the depths of the mine. Below them was a huge crystal stone emitting colorful light, with only the tip of the iceberg showing. A fourth-level incarnation could not do anything with a whole piece of fifth-level ore. Even if they wanted to dig it, they had to use magic weapons to chisel it bit by bit, which was very time-consuming and ineffective.

"beautiful!"

Liu Xianfeng's eyes were intoxicated, she liked all beautiful things.

Xu Shengtian could sense the increasingly strong call and murmured, "There are rare treasures deep in the mine."

Gu Yunzhu suddenly frowned, signaled everyone to step back, and said in a voice transmission: "This Yingcai crystal stone is hollow inside and contains a powerful aura. It feels very dangerous!"
