Chapter 85 – Winterland
Of all the cultivation resources produced by the Yuxian, including the spiritual valley s, the first one would definitely be the Heaven-Shaken Sect s. The second one would be the various famous sects, strong people, and clans of the s.
The Heaven-Shaken Sect was too high, those famous and powerful people were also very far away, even the Prominent Class families like the Yang family were like giant beasts in the eyes of the ordinary villagers, therefore, when the people of the Green Tree Village were unable to endure the excitement, at most, the one they dared to face was just Hu Siping.
Yang Junshan naturally would not take part in matters regarding the Green Tree Village. After greeting Chu Chuang, he walked into the mine under the slightly envious gaze of Chu Chuang and the others. Ten stone coins, Han Xiusheng had the authority to exempt his nephew.
Chu Chuang suddenly stood up, and fiercely said: “This day is not going to end well, whether or not there is someone who dares to fight against Hu Siping, stand over here!”
Yang Junshan didn’t know that in his previous life, it was only because Chu Chuang had placed ten stone coins into the mine that he had started to step onto the road of seizing the miners from Green Tree Village, becoming a confrontation between the mines and the martial arts realm s. However, this time was an extremely good opportunity for him.
In the past, Yang Junshan would have to be careful when he explored the mines, afraid that others would discover his abnormality. Especially since he was almost ambushed by the Chu brothers, Yang Junshan’s probing had become more and more careful.
But this time, Yang Junshan could finally go all out without any worries. He did not know when the things outside the cave would be resolved, and when the miners would rush into the cave.
From the moment he entered the cave, Yang Junshan had already rushed to the final three tunnels, while recalling the scene in his previous life where the treasures that were passed around among the miners were excavated.
It was said that when the treasures converged and took shape, they would absorb all the essence in the surrounding earth and rocks, causing a small cave to form around each treasure. Aesult, almost every time a cave was dug out from the tunnel, one could obtain a treasure.
The last three mines that Yang Junshan had chosen were those used by the miners from the Green Tree Village that had not been here for a long time. These three mines had all been excavated long ago, and the rest of the mines were considered to be extremely barren.
This also proved that, perhaps it was because the treasures in the caves had drained all the spirit energy essence from these lode mines, which was the reason why all the clay mines that had been mined turned into barren mines.
Because Yang Junshan was unable to differentiate the last two tunnels, he chose to use the hoe in his hand to quickly excavate the bottom of one of the tunnels.
Ding! Ding! Ding!...
Because he no longer needed to worry about the sounds of mining to attract the other miners over, Yang Junshan’s mining voice sounded concentrated and rhythmic. He was an expert in many kinds of medium- and low-grade body forging fist techniques, and all of the muscles, tendons and bones of his body were already as hard as iron, his strength was not inferior to those of the cultivators at the fifth stage of the Mortal Realm. Even the seven stone bow in his hand was a lot softer now.
In the past when he was mining in the mines, because he did not want to attract attention, Yang Junshan had not used his full strength. But today, other than him, no one else was around.
At the same time, he also trained in the six viscera brocade and Mountain Monarch’s Map. These body forging secret techniques not only increased his physical body and strength, but also allowed his endurance to improve significantly. Even after an hour had passed, he still did not have the slightest hint of rest.
Just then, a snapping sound came out. The hoe that was used to mine the ore was no longer able to endure Yang Junshan’s continuous mining and broke into pieces.
Yang Junshan sighed helplessly. Because the Spirit Qi in his body had dried up, the Spirit Qi absorbed by the “Wutu Spiritual Art” was no longer enough to support the Spirit Qi used in the mining. The Spirit Qi in his body could not cover the hoe, so the wear and tear of the hoe had increased greatly.
Which was to say that when Yang Junshan’s physical strength was still sufficient to support him in mining, the spirit energy in his body had already been depleted. This showed that Yang Junshan’s current cultivation level was still not up to the level of his skill in fleshly body forging.
It had to be known that although “Wutu Spiritual Art” was cultivated very slowly, it was extremely dense, which meant that under such circumstances, Yang Junshan’s cultivation of the third spiritual cavities was already lagging far behind.
Among the three great spirit cavities, due to the six viscera brocade, the speed at which the spirit energy was solidifying was slowed down again and again. On the other hand, more than half of the spirit energy had already solidified in the vertebral bone spirit cavities, and as for the bone marrow, the spirit energy still had not been completely filled up yet.
Fortunately, the broken hoe was a common occurrence in mining, so Yang Junshan had two backup. After replacing it with a new hoe, Yang Junshan directly put a Jade Coins in his hands and started to cultivate.
After waiting for the spiritual energy in his body to recover, Yang Junshan started to extract the spiritual energy again. This time, he was more careful, the speed of mining had slowed down by a lot, and he was constantly paying attention to the circulation of his cultivation and spiritual energy.
After another two hours, he had finally dug three meters deeper into the hard tunnel. However, the small cave that he had anticipated did not appear, causing Yang Junshan to be slightly discouraged. It seemed that he had chosen the only mistake out of the three mines.
Just as he was considering giving up on this passage and choosing another one, Yang Junshan swung his hoe down suddenly. With a “crack”, the hoe in his hand became lighter.
However, at this time, the spiritual energy in his body was not lacking at all. When he raised his head to look, he saw that the mine was not broken. Instead, he immediately inserted himself into the ore and did not reach its peak.
Yang Junshan’s eyes immediately lit up!
He did not rush to check on the situation with the hoe, but instead anxiously walked to the entrance of the mine, and listened carefully, and upon realizing that no one was in the mine, he went back to the bottom of the mine and pried it open. With a “bang”, a piece of the mine fell, and a half foot long natural stone cave appeared in front of Yang Junshan.
Gulp, gulu. An egg-sized yellow stone ball rolled down from the small cave and was caught by Yang Junshan right away, without waiting for it to crash into the rocks.
The originally slow moving “Wutu Spiritual Art” suddenly sped up a lot, and the vigorous spirit energy that had entered his body was instantly refined. It followed the spirit energy circulating channel around his body and rushed into the bone marrow’s spiritual cavities, and the immense impact caused the immortal spiritual cavities that were originally half filled with spirit energy to suddenly shake, to the point that Yang Junshan himself could hear thunderous sounds coming from his body.
amylopyrite, it was truly a amylopyrite, a natural condensation of the essence of soil spiritual force!
For cultivators that practiced earth attribute cultivation techniques, the effect of using amylopyrito assist in their cultivation was almost equivalent to the use of medicinal pellets, but there were simply no side effects of medicinal pellets that required time to calm down. In other words, if there were enough amylopyrite, Yang Junshan could completely borrow the strength of amylopyrite s to continue cultivating.
What he had to see now was how many amylopyrite he could obtain from the mines this time, and how he could think of how to take these amylopyrite out of the cave.
After obtaining the first piece of amylopyrite, Yang Junshan was completely at ease. This meant that as long as the secret of this mine was not exposed, Yang Junshan could peacefully excavate a second, third, or even more.
However, he was not in a rush, because he temporarily did not have any way of bringing the amylopyrite out of the cave. Yang Junshan simply sat there cross-legged and started cultivating, in order to refine all of the soil elemental energy contained in the amylopyrite into his body.
With the help of the amylopyrite’s power, Yang Junshan cultivated in the mines for the majority of the day, and only woke up when the time for the mines to work was almost up. At this time, the piece of amylopyrite’s essence in his hand was only half done, but today’s cultivation progress made Yang Junshan feel that it was equivalent to the effect of cultivating for three days.
After digging out all the stones that had formed the cave, Yang Junshan once again placed the amylopyrite inside and mixed it with the useless rocks. Yang Junshan walked out of the tunnel with the basket on his back, and arrived aidden fork in the path.
The reason was so that after he found the amylopyrite, he could use his time to refine the amylopyrite and thus be unable to mine. In order to avoid suspicion from others, he only needed to carry the ore and hand it over.
Even with Han Xiusheng’s help, he was unable to bring the amylopyrite out in front of everyone’s eyes, not to mention that Han Xiusheng himself did not know that Yang Junshan had other intentions in mining this time.
He heard from Han Xiusheng that the entire Green Tree Village’s miners were going on strike together under the leadership of a person called Chu Chuang. They requested that Hu Siping reduce the value of ten stone coins to the seven stone coins set by the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
“Sigh, if this Chu Chuang is messing around, the income of our managers will probably be affected too.”
Han Xiusheng obviously did not stand on the miner’s side, but when Hu Siping raised the price of the stone coins, Han Xiusheng and the other overseers would also get a share.
