Immortal Path Evergreen

Seeing that Wu Xiangzhen had considered everything, the crowd did not say much. Under the leadership of Ma Jimin, they immediately flew to Chaoyin Mountain.

Chaoyin Mountain is located on the edge of the Duanyun Mountains. It produces a low-level material called echo stone, which has been controlled by the Ma family for many years.

The Ma family monks originally mined echo stone, but they did not expect to dig into the depths of Chaoyin Mountain and actually found a precious spiritual stone mine.

Ma Jimin originally wanted to secretly hide the spiritual stone mine, but he did not expect that once the spiritual stone mine began to be mined, the spiritual energy would leak out continuously. In just less than three months, the spiritual stone mine would no longer be able to be hidden.

Once the spiritual stone mine leaked, the Ma family would be in danger of extinction.

Ma Jimin saw that the situation was not right, and immediately suppressed his greed and notified the other four major families. With the cooperation of the five major families and the intervention of Qingxuan Sect, it was certain that the spiritual stone mine would be saved.

Seven or eight foundation-building monks followed the mine cave where the echo stone was mined into the depths of Chaoyin Mountain, and soon felt a sense of spiritual energy filling.

Torches were lit deep in the mine. Everyone looked around and immediately found some traces of random digging.

A few people looked at Ma Jimin with a smile, and Ma Jimin blushed and said, "The young people in the family are disobedient. What has happened? After returning, I will punish some people severely. I have repeatedly ordered not to dig spirit stones randomly, but there are still people who can't control themselves."

Several people walked around the depths of Chaoyin Mountain along the mine. Because there was no formation master among them and they could not explore the veins, they could not determine the size of this spirit stone mine for the time being.

However, from the traces of the Ma family's excavation, their family dug the spirit stone mine for three months and dug out at least four or five thousand low-grade spirit stones.

The Ma family basically had no plan for digging spirit stones. They dug wherever it was easy to dig. Although they could mine a lot of spirit stones, the waste was also very serious and the efficiency was not very high.

Mining spirit stone mines in Taicheng County is inseparable from the local snakes of the five major families. Mining spirit stone mines requires a large number of manpower and the protection of many cultivators.

Leaving the five major families, taking over the spirit stone mine alone, and drawing manpower, food, spirit rice and other materials from the Qingxuan Sect 100,000 miles away, not only consumes a lot of money, but also causes complaints from the five major families.

Once foreign enemies invade, they will win over local local snakes, and finally cause an unmanageable mess, which will also be very troublesome for the Qingxuan Sect.

So since the five major families are willing to inform the Qingxuan Sect to mine this spirit stone mine, it means that they are still willing to use the Qingxuan Sect as a backer. Although the Qingxuan Sect can take the lion's share of the spirit stone mine, it also has to leave a little soup for the five major families.

Everyone explored the spirit stone vein, Wu Xiangzhen glanced at everyone and said, "What do you think?"

Zhang Zhixuan did not hide anything, he said what he had and said what he meant directly.

"From the spiritual stone vein below, we cannot determine the size of the spiritual stone vein, but from the traces of mining by Fellow Daoist Ma and his team, the possibility of a small spiritual stone vein is greater. The most urgent thing is to notify Qingxuan Sect immediately, and wait for the formation master of Qingxuan Sect to come and explore the reserves of the spiritual stone mine before making a decision!

Even if Qingxuan Sect swallows up the spiritual stone mine alone, it is better than leaving it in our hands as a hot potato. The spiritual energy of this spiritual stone mine is getting stronger day by day. As long as you are not blind, it is still easy to find it. Once the news of the spiritual stone mine comes out, it cannot be hidden at all. Our Taicheng County has dug out the spiritual stone mine, and I am afraid it will soon become a battlefield. As a local cultivation family in Taicheng County, it is not just Fellow Daoist Ma's family, but several other families will also be difficult to escape."

Everyone agreed with what Zhang Zhixuan said. Wu Xiangzhen personally went to Qingxuan Sect and notified Li Zigong, the elder of the Qingxuan Sect's General Affairs Hall.

When Li Zigong heard that Taicheng County had discovered a spiritual stone mine, he looked happy and immediately decided to come out and take a look in person. He selected a third-level formation master from the Qingxuan Sect, and then personally descended on Chaoyin Mountain.

As the formation master drove a formation flag near Chaoyin Mountain, he kept exploring the trend of the spiritual stone vein. It took more than a month to get a rough result.

After exploring the vein, Li Zigong said directly, "The vein has been roughly explored. There is indeed a small spiritual stone vein here in Chaoyin Mountain. According to our calculations, if 60,000 mortals are invested in mining, about 50 low-grade spiritual stones can be mined every day. It is estimated that the reserves of the Chaoyin Mountain spiritual stone mine should be able to be mined for at least 300 years.

So in order to protect this spiritual stone mine, we must build a powerful formation on Chaoyin Mountain and send high-level monks to guard this spiritual mountain. If you want to station high-level monks, you must first cultivate high-level spiritual veins. To cultivate high-level spiritual veins, you must first invest huge spiritual stone resources."

Li Zigong took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued, "Guarding such a spiritual stone mine, there is no purple mansion monk. No, so the spiritual veins cultivated below the fourth level cannot be used. Cultivating a fourth-level spiritual vein requires 100,000 spiritual stones, and your five families must share half of it.

The fourth-level spirit gathering formation will be handed over to us for refining, and the purple mansion monks stationed there will also be arranged by us. However, you have to pay for the fourth-level formation guarding the spiritual veins with spiritual stones, and your five families must send no less than 200 monks to Chaoyin Mountain to guard and cooperate with our purple mansion monks to guard the spiritual stone mine.

Since you all want to get involved, you can't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Take out the spiritual stones from your home first! "

Li Zigong is in charge of the general affairs and finances of Qingxuan Sect, and he worries about spiritual stones every day. With this spiritual stone mine supplement, the situation will be much better.

He saw that the scale of the spirit stone mine was already quite large, and he had been looking happy these days. Although he had to share some with the five major families below, the investment in mining this spirit stone vein was also very large.

Although the Qingxuan Sect was powerful, the family was large and the consumption was also large. There were more than 10,000 monks to support, and there were many places that needed spirit stones.

Without the participation of the five major families, the Qingxuan Sect also felt tight in mobilizing so many manpower and material resources at once. If too much time was wasted and the formation was not arranged before the Hongshan Sect noticed it. If the first move was lost, the Hongshan Sect would definitely fight hard for it, and the casualties would probably be very heavy.

So it was a win-win situation for the five local snakes to join.

Under the auspices of Li Zigong, they quickly allocated the share of the spirit stone mine. The Qingxuan Sect occupied the largest share of 75% because it would dispatch purple mansion monks to guard the spirit stone mine and would bear half of the spirit stones needed to cultivate the fourth-level spirit vein.

The Wu family is the leader of the five major families in Taicheng County and occupies 10% of the shares. The Ma family is the first family to discover the spirit stone mine and is also the local snake in Chaoyin Mountain. It occupies 6% of the shares, and the other three families share the remaining 9% of the spirit stone mine.

According to this ratio, the Wu family needs to take out 20,000 spirit stones, invest 24,000 mortals to mine the spirit stone mine, and send no less than 100 monks to garrison Chaoyin Mountain.

Although the Zhang family occupies a smaller share, the resources invested are also small.

They only need to invest 6,000 spirit stones, 7,200 mortals, 24 monks, plus some food, spiritual rice and other resources, in exchange for 3% of the spirit stone mine.

According to the estimation of the Qingxuan Sect monks, once this spirit stone mine is built, it can dig out about 20,000 spirit stones every year. Even if the Zhang family occupies a smaller share, it can get 600 spirit stones every year, and the cost can be recovered in just ten years of mining.

This spiritual stone mine can continue to be mined for the next three hundred years. If the Zhang family were not the local tyrant, this kind of business would never be theirs.
