Mortals ask the immortals

Ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in the hand!

Duan Qing first collected all the raw stones that could be seen on the wall of the cave.

The magic weapon flying sword is indeed convenient to use. It does not take much effort to get the raw stones down, but it is a bit troublesome to remove the stone shell.

It only took a few hours for Duan Qing to clear all the raw stones here. He roughly counted and found that there were nearly three hundred stones.

In less than a day, he almost completed a month's task. It seems that what the second senior brother said before that ordinary people can complete it is not a lie.

Come to think of it, there are only about a hundred people in Jinxuan Sect, from the head to the Qi training disciples. The consumption of spirit stones is not much. The disciples on duty every year do not need to work hard, and the spirit stones produced are enough to maintain the daily consumption of the sect.

So, the disciples on duty only spend a small part of their time mining, and most of the other time is used for cultivation.

But Duan Qing is obviously an exception. He now wishes he could stay in the mine for a year and not go out, so as to dig enough.

For other disciples, the raw stones in the mine cannot be used for cultivation, but are only tools to complete the sect's tasks. For Duan Qing, who has the mysterious metal, the raw stones are equal to spiritual stones. Now that he is in the spiritual mine, it is as easy to get the raw stones as to pick them up for free.

After digging all the raw stones he could see, Duan Qing decided to continue digging forward. The raw stones here are so dense that the front will not be bad.

Under his magic weapon flying sword, the stone wall in front of him peeled off like tofu. Just after digging a few feet, the flying sword encountered resistance.

Duan Qing brought the moonlight stone forward and took a look. Sure enough, he dug up the raw stone.

The texture of the raw stone is very hard, even Duan Qing's magic weapon flying sword can't hurt it at all.

Then Duan Qing continued to clean the stone wall in front with the flying sword. After a while, a large piece of raw stones was exposed in front of him. When he used the moonlight stone to shine, he saw that it was densely packed with raw stones, at least dozens of them.

Seeing this, Duan Qing finally figured out a question, why did the people who dug here before leave so many raw stones on the stone wall, it seems that they don't like those bits and pieces!

In this way, Duan Qing dug here for ten days in a row, pushing the stone wall forward about ten feet.

In these ten days, he could dig hundreds of raw stones every day. In total, he dug about six thousand stones, and this was the result of his great restraint.

Because he only spent two or three hours a day digging raw stones, and the rest of the time was spent on cultivation.

Duan Qing thought very clearly that no matter how many raw stones he had in his hands, it was not as real as turning them into real cultivation.

In addition, with so many raw stones in his hands, he finally said goodbye to the days when he dared to use only one at a time.

Duan Qing tried it, and he could now withstand the spiritual spring made of nine raw stones, with remarkable results. 50% of the spiritual energy could be absorbed by the sea of ​​qi in the end. Although it was not cost-effective compared to the spiritual spring made of one spiritual stone, he had so many raw stones now that he could completely ignore this.

Nine raw stones are also his current limit. If there are more, he feels that he can't completely control the spiritual energy in the spiritual spring water.

On the eleventh day, Duan Qing drank another mouthful of the spiritual spring, closed his eyes and operated the Yin Yuan technique with all his strength to digest the spiritual energy contained in it.

At this time, the cyclone in his Qi sea was obviously rotating much faster than before, and the air mass became tighter. He felt that he should have reached the threshold of breaking through the second level.

After the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual spring water ran along the route of the Yin Yuan technique on Duan Qing's body for a week, it merged into the cyclone like a river into the sea.

At this time, the rotation speed of the cyclone in Duan Qing's body accelerated again, reaching a limit, and then suddenly paused, and the cyclone suddenly expanded a circle. As the cyclone expanded, its speed slowly decreased and returned to its usual state.

Duan Qing opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air. The second level of Qi training was finally completed!

He was extremely happy now. This speed of cultivation was simply unheard of. The spiritual spring water made with nine raw stones was much better than the honest cultivation with spiritual stones.

After looking around, he decided to dig some more raw stones and went back to the deep valley. The water in his bag was almost used up, so he had to go back to replenish it.

Speaking of which, he chose this place because it was really hidden. In the past ten days, not to mention people, even insects were not found. Duan Qing decided to go back to replenish and continue digging in this place.

His hands kept moving, and he saw large pieces of stone walls in front of him falling to the ground. Suddenly, his hands felt light, as if he was cutting into the air.

Hmm? He drew out his flying sword and stabbed forward again. First, his hand was slightly stagnant, and then he felt like he was stabbing into the air again.

There was nothing in front! Duan Qing could feel that he used his flying sword to draw a big circle along the stone wall, kicked it hard, and a large piece of stone wall was kicked away by him, and a hole as big as a person appeared in front of him.

Looking at the hole in front of him, Duan Qing was a little surprised and doubtful. How could there be a hole suddenly! Did he dig into someone else's mine?

He took a moonstone and threw it in. After seeing what was inside, Duan Qing denied his previous idea.

This is definitely not someone else's mine, because there is no trace of artificial excavation inside.

Duan Qing took out another moonstone and held it in his hand. He bent down and drilled in. The space inside was not very large. There were inverted stone cones distributed above his head. Some of the longer ones he could touch with his hand while standing. Apart from that, there seemed to be nothing else inside.

It's really strange, how could there be a cave here!

Suddenly, Duan Qing seemed to hear a sound that was familiar, as if... It was the sound of water!

He followed the sound to the center of the cave, where the moonstone he had thrown in before was. He did not find any traces of water flow, but the ground was a little wet.

Hey, that's not right!

Duan Qing found that the ground under his feet seemed to be different from other places here.

He had seen the stones in this cave, and they were the same as the ones he had dug before, all ordinary rocks. But the ground under his feet seemed to be different, a little gray and smooth.

He squatted down and touched it with his hand. The texture was indeed not like rock, but it was definitely not like jade.

Duan Qing was going to cut a piece off to see, so he picked up the flying sword in his hand and stabbed it under his feet. When the sword went down, he first encountered some resistance, and then his hand felt empty again.

Not good! Duan Qing felt bad when he stabbed with the sword, and he stood up to retreat, but before he stood up, he heard a click, and his feet were empty.

At this moment, through the broken ground, he found that there was a water hole under the ground.

Then he heard a "plop" and he fell into the water.

Cold, this is the only feeling Duan Qing has now, cold to the bone. After emerging from the water, he decisively threw away the moonstone in one hand, grabbed the ground above, and then threw the flying sword in the other hand up, and then climbed out of the water with his hands and feet.

After coming up, Duan Qing curled up on the ground.

Cold, too cold, the water inside felt colder than snow water, and he was also a little scared. If it was not water inside, but a deep hole, wouldn't he fall to death! He was only at the second level of Qi training, and he didn't have the ability to fly with a sword.

This reckless temper really needs to be changed!
