Chronicles of Ascension: The Path to Immortality

When Zhang Xuan finished all these, it was time to go to work again.

Bu Yueling watched her husband plant a yard full of third-level spiritual medicine so quickly, holding his arm tightly, and went to the mine entrance to work.

This time, they entered the depths of the nest and still had a rich harvest, digging 1,500 kilograms of ore.

Zhang Xuan's Kaijiang hidden deep in the mine brought him 3,000 kilograms of Shenyi Blood Ore.

These Shenyi Blood Ore went deep into the Taiqing Creation Map.

The reincarnation golden lotus in the meditation space generated a drop of high-level beast blood without fail.

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but smile again.

This feeling of opening a small treasury is really great.

"Husband, have you ever thought about refining pills or refining tools to sell them, and then buying Shenyi Blood Ore, maybe you can get more than you do now." Bu Yueling suddenly suggested.

"How many miners are there in this mining area?"

"There are 59 mining openings in total, with about 300 people in each mining opening, so there should be more than 10,000 people in total."

"More than 10,000 people are just a medium-sized force outside, and more than half of the miners can only make a living, and have little consumption power. In addition, the eight major families also need people to support them, so the financial system of this mining area is very fragile."

"What do you mean? What is the financial system?"

"In plain words, if you occasionally sell Tianshou Pills, you can sell one for 3,000 kilograms of Shenyi Blood Ore, but if you make it your profession and sell a large number of Tianshou Pills to the outside world, the price of Tianshou Pills will soon drop to 1,000 kilograms of Shenyi Blood Ore. The mines can't be sold."

"So you can only do alchemy or refining secretly occasionally?"

"Yes, and the Holy Land will probably send a batch of pills and other things regularly, and take away the excess Shenyi Blood Ore. These excess Shenyi Blood Ore will go around and return to their hands."

"It is said that the eight great families seem to have secret passages to other mining areas, but I don't know if it is true or not."

"If the passages to other areas can be opened, the market scale will be large, and there will definitely be great potential."

"There is a long way to go, we can slowly explore it later."

The two of them left the mine, handed over 200 kilograms of Shenyi Blood Ore to Guijianchou, and went directly to Xihong Street.

This time, the two avoided Yudan Pavilion and sold a few second-level pills in several other family shops.

The two of them have a total of 40,000 kilograms of Shenyi Blood Ore.

After getting these Shenyi Blood Ore, the two happily returned to the safe house.

To their surprise, in front of their own safe house, Cao Xu stood there with a smile on his face.

Unexpectedly, I was discovered.

"Daoyou Zhang, Daoyou Bu, I came here uninvited. You two won't blame me for being abrupt, right?" Cao Xu smiled and bowed.

"Daoyou Cao, what is your intention in finding this place?"

"What? If I had any ill intentions, I wouldn't have appeared in front of you openly."

Zhang Xuan looked at Cao Xu in front of him, his mind racing, but he still said slowly: "Would you like to have a cup of tea at home?"

"Thank you."

Entering the safe house, Zhang Xuan activated the concealment formation.

Zhang Xuan and Cao Xu sat on both sides of the table.

Bu Yueling brewed two cups of spiritual tea for the two and went inside, leaving the two to talk.

Cao Xu took a sip of tea and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I'll get straight to the point. You have something our Cao family wants, and we also have something you want. We can cooperate."

"I'm just a small miner. What is there on me that is worth the Cao family's attention?"

"Fellow Daoist Zhang is too modest. In addition to the Tianshou Pill, you also have the Tiansha Pill, the Five Elements Xiaoqi Pill, the Zuowang Pill, and the Jiuxiang Liuli Pill. Am I right?"

"You followed me?"

"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstood. How could Cao follow you?" Cao Xu laughed and said, "I sent someone to follow you two."

"Is there any difference?" Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes at him.

"It seems that there is no difference. However, don't care about these details. One thing is the most important. The pills in your hands are very much needed by my Cao family. Not only our Cao family, but the entire underground mine is very much needed..."

"Then what?" Zhang Xuan stared at Cao Xu and asked.

"I also know what Daoyou Zhang needs."

"What do you need? Tell me."

"I also did a little investigation on Daoyou Zhang. When he was in the Holy Land, Daoyou Zhang was a third-level silver chef at the Shenxianguo Avenue Restaurant. He was implicated in the corruption case of the head of the mining and processing institute and was demoted to a mining slave, right?"

Zhang Xuan was shocked. He didn't expect that the other party could even investigate his own affairs on the ground.

These eight great families are indeed well-deserved.

Zhang Xuan nodded and admitted: "Daoyou Cao is right."

"After entering the underground mining area, Daoyou Zhang, in addition to buying a large number of pill recipes in my Yudan Pavilion, also bought a large number of spiritual materials contaminated by the five elements of evil spirits in the Linglong Hall of the Shi family, right?"

Zhang Xuan didn't expect that even his activities in the underground mining area were investigated clearly by the other party.

"Yes, what does Daoyou Cao mean by this?"

"A person's needs are often hidden in his past experiences. Let me tell you a few things first to see if Daoyou Zhang needs them."

"Okay, Daoyou Cao, tell me."

"Opening a restaurant in an underground mine requires a site, qualifications, and a background to rely on. My Cao family can help Daoyou with these. I wonder if you are interested in opening a restaurant?"

Zhang Xuan was a little moved.

When he was in the Holy Land, he made his first pot of gold by opening a restaurant.

If a restaurant can be opened in this underground mine, then the God Wing Blood Mine will come in a rush.

Cao Xu saw Zhang Xuan's expression and understood his intention. He continued, "The Cao family is a thousand-year-old family. They have accumulated a lot of high-level spiritual materials in the clan library, many of which are unique to the ancient times, such as Enlightenment Tea, Fire Yang Spirit Wood, Geng Gold, etc. Although they are polluted by the five elements of evil spirit, they are also priceless. I wonder if you are interested?"

Zhang Xuan was excited again after hearing this.

He had personally experienced the wonderful effects of Enlightenment Tea.

It's a pity that there are not many left now. I didn't expect that the other party still had some.

Fire Yang Spirit Wood is the supreme spiritual material of fire attribute, which has the magical effect of nourishing spiritual fire and helping spiritual fire to advance.

For an alchemist, it is definitely a dream come true.

His Nine Flames True Fire absorbed a lot of ancestral calamity, and its power is already strong.

If this Fire Yang Spirit Wood can be absorbed, it can be directly advanced to the third-level intermediate spiritual fire.

As for Gengjin, it is the spiritual material that weapon refiners dream of.

When refining magic weapons, even if you add a fingernail-sized amount, it can greatly enhance the power of the magic weapon.

Cao Xu is right, a person's needs are often in his past experiences.

These things are indeed what Zhang Xuan needs.

"Can we talk about cooperation now?" Cao Xu asked with a smile on his face.
