Chapter 21: Fiery Sky-Burning Array (Seeking Collection, Recommendation, and Investment)

"My grandson has not arranged for the Qingyu Spirit Mine to resume work because the monster has not been killed yet. Don't worry, Master Qi," Sun Mingsheng responded.

Qingyu Spirit Mine and Qingshi Spirit Mine are both one of the first-grade low-grade spirit mines, but the difference between the two is also very clear.

Qingyu Spirit Mine is a long-term operation, and the Sun family can only earn 2,000 spirit stones from it every year even if they go all out.

Qingshi Spirit Mine is relatively easy to mine. As long as enough cultivators are invested, tens of thousands of standard first-grade low-grade bluestones can be mined and sold in a year.

Tens of thousands of spirit stones are undoubtedly a big tonic pill for the Sun family. If you are lucky, you can buy a foundation-building pill at the auction, which means a new foundation-building cultivator.

"Well done, let's go, let's go to the mine cave together." Sun Youshi naturally understood the meaning.

The two did not dare to delay at all, and went straight into the mine cave. He found the location of the Qingshi Spirit Mine.

In the mine, Sun Youshi chopped the blue jade with magic tools and attacked with magic. In short, all kinds of methods were used frequently, but in the end, only some shallow white marks were left.

"It is indeed a bluestone spiritual mine, Mingsheng, you have made great contributions this time, and the family will definitely reward you heavily," Sun Youshi said with certainty.

Although he is not a professional prospector, he has been working in the cultivation world for decades and has a lot of experience. He can still determine this relatively common bluestone spiritual mine.

Prospectors are a relatively niche skill. Through some special means, the size and basic direction of the spiritual mine can be determined.

And the inheritance of prospectors is also quite rare. In the entire Song Dynasty, only the five major sects have some basic inheritance.

It is precisely relying on the efforts of prospectors that the five major sects have continuously discovered spiritual mines of different sizes, types, and grades, providing a continuous source of power for the development of the sects.

There is no such rare existence as prospectors in the Sun family. All the spiritual mines are discovered by the cultivators in the foundation-building stage.

This stupid method is not only inefficient, but also relies on luck to a large extent. If you are unlucky, you may not be able to find a small first-level low-grade spiritual mine in a hundred years.

"Seventh Master, the night is long and dreams are many. If the news leaks, there may be trouble. It is better to report to the family quickly and send more cultivators to come. It is best to set up a small formation here." After getting a positive answer, Sun Mingsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Of course, I will ask the family for help immediately." Sun Youshi said, and then carefully took out a purple-black second-level communication talisman with responsible patterns.

Communication talismans are not omnipotent. The transmission speed and confidentiality of second-level communication talismans are better. As long as there is no Jindan stage cultivator to intercept, there is no worry about safety.

A second-level communication talisman is also expensive, about a hundred spiritual stones, and can only be used under special circumstances.

"Mingsheng, from today on, I will be stationed at the Qingshi Spiritual Mine until the next wave of cultivators from the family arrives. You will turn this place into a restricted area and arrange for miners to resume work in other mines. If they are not resumed for a long time, it may attract the attention of the Yan and Zhao families," Sun Youshi ordered in an orderly manner.

As we all know, the Qingyu Spiritual Mine is one of the few spiritual mines in the hands of the Sun family. For the Sun family, it is a hen that lays golden eggs.

In order to extract enough first-level inferior Qingyu, a relatively harsh production requirement is issued to the miners in Lingyu Town every month.

If it is for a monster, it is obviously unrealistic to stop the mining of Qingyu Spiritual Mine for a long time. It feels like there is something fishy here.

"Grandson understands, let's start arranging for the miners to resume work now," Sun Mingsheng quickly figured out the secret.

The two cultivators performed their duties, and the mining of Qingyu Spiritual Mine soon resumed. Except for the demarcation of a small restricted area, there was no other abnormality.

Even if the monks from the Yan and Zhao families happened to pass by here, they would not find any abnormality.

With the cover of the Qingyu Spirit Mine, the Qingshi Spirit Mine would be more convenient and secretive to mine.

There are still some differences between the two veins. The Qingyu Spirit Mine can be mined on a large scale by ordinary people, and the Sun family is only responsible for refining.

The Qingshi Spirit Mine is extremely hard. Not to mention that ordinary people are simply unable to mine it, Qi Refining cultivators must use special magic tools as an aid to mine and cut it into standard blocks.

The two monks, Sun Youshi and Sun Mingsheng, seemed to be full of confidence and performed their duties in an orderly manner, but before the next wave of reinforcements sent by the family arrived, the uneasiness in their hearts had never completely disappeared.

One bright and one dark, one up and one down, they have always been in a state of looseness outside and tightness inside, fearing that they would attract the attention of other monks in this not-so-long time.

"Twelfth brother, where is the Qingshi Spirit Mine? How big is it? Is it worth using a second-level communication talisman?" The reinforcements from the Sun family came quite quickly.

On the evening of the second day, more than ten monks rode ten stupid bull beasts and appeared at the Qingyu Spirit Mine. The leader was also a cultivator of the eighth level of Qi training.

"Brother, why are you here? Aren't you practicing in seclusion?" Sun Mingsheng asked in surprise.

Sun Mingzeng, the first in the Ming generation, has dual spiritual roots of water and wood. He is the family's key foundation-building seed. He is provided with various cultivation resources. He is also the only dual spiritual root cultivator in the family. His only task on weekdays is to cultivate.

Perhaps dual spiritual roots are only upper-middle-level cultivators in the five major sects, but in the Sun family, they are completely used to change the fate of the family.

As long as there is a foundation-building pill to help, it is almost certain to be promoted to the foundation-building stage. There is no doubt. If there are some good opportunities, there is more than a 50% chance of condensing a golden elixir.

A golden elixir cultivator is definitely the most effective way to improve the family's strength. All the cultivators in the entire Sun family would rather live frugally than support Sun Mingzeng's cultivation.

In order to protect Sun Mingzeng's safety, it is publicized that his qualifications have always been three spiritual roots, and he also has a lot of killer weapons.

"It is far from enough to rely on seclusion to improve cultivation. I have consumed a lot of resources in the family over the years. I should also make some contributions to the family. This time I came here specifically to ask for orders," Sun Mingzeng said firmly.

"Brother, can you bring formation flags with you?" This is the question that Sun Mingsheng is most concerned about.

Formation flags are expensive. A set of the simplest first-grade lower-grade formation flags requires at least 300 spirit stones. The price of the first-grade middle-grade mist formation arranged in the residence is nearly 1,000 spirit stones.

The mist formation is just a formation that is more like an illusion among the first-grade middle-grade ones. It has no other characteristics, so the price is not too high relatively speaking.

"Bringing a set of first-grade upper-grade Fiery Sky Burning Formation flags from the family treasury is enough to meet the needs of the bluestone mine." Sun Mingzeng is very confident about this set of formation flags.

The first-grade upper-grade Fiery Sky Burning Formation is a pure offensive formation that can resist the attack of three ninth-level Qi training cultivators.
