Chapter 1205 Mining Happily!
He arrived at the Ox-Horn mountain overnight.
Fang Qiu made a thorough search of the area but didn’t find anything unusual or feel any energy aura, which made him feel slightly relieved.
After all, this area was covered with snowy mountains and ice fields.
Ordinary people couldn’t stand the bitter cold weather here, and only Wulin people could bear it. So, each force leader would only dispatch martial arts practitioners here.
For this reason, as long as Fang Qiu scanned the area within 100 kilometers around himself with his Divine Consciousness, he would be explicitly aware if anyone was around.
He was sure that there was no one around.
Fang Qiu climbed the mountain peak and came to the cold lake where the ancient relic was located and entered the Mo Group’s pavilion hidden behind the hill by the lake. He casually picked a room inside and sat cross-legged as he began his cultivation.
Fang Qiu had been surveying the surroundings for three days in a row.
After three days, there was no sign of any other human beings.
“Phew…”
After ensuring that he was alone there, Fang Qiu reached the cold lakeside and looked around from all angles there. Sometimes, he even flew upward and levitated in the air to keep watch.
As a result, he found that no one could see what was happening inside unless someone soared higher than the highest peak around the cold pool.
After all, this was the topmost summit in the vicinity!
Fang Qiu was immensely relieved by the result of his investigation.
He had decided to scout around precisely for the sake of his mining operation.
Everything was ready.
Fang Qiu took out his mobile phone and searched the nearby cities.
Each time, he came here from Sala City, which was still too far away from this location. It took him a few hours to drive, and the road was too dangerous for driving.
Especially in this sensitive period, if each force hadn’t planted their men around the snowy mountain, they must have arranged for spies to stay in Sala City.
Thus, he mustn’t take the route from Sala City if he needed to carry out his mining operation.
As expected, he found a city close to this place. However, it was slightly nearer to the ancient ruin than Sala City, and the actual distance was not short.
“Linzhi City, right here!”
Fang Qiu nodded to himself.
Then he pinpointed the direction and immediately went down the mountain, heading for Linzhi City at full speed.
Along the way, he found some helpful information on his mobile phone. Upon arriving in Linzhi City, he rented all kinds of drilling equipment.
All the equipment was small. Fang Qiu didn’t need any large-scale equipment at all. In addition, he even rented a commercial helicopter that came without any positioning devices.
To be qualified to rent a helicopter, he even took some time to learn how to fly it.
In the end, he bought two snow-white tarpaulins.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFang Qiu collected everything he needed.
He returned to the cold pool overnight.
The helicopter was parked by the cold pool and covered by a piece of snow-white tarpaulin. After that, Fang Qiu jumped into the cold lake with all his rented digging equipment and dived down fast into the jade mine.
Soon, he arrived at the cave that was full of jade.
Fang Qiu first put down the equipment to explore the mine and used the rented instruments to calculate how much he could dig. After confirming the depth he could drill, he began to dig.
Unexpectedly…
Just as he started digging, Fang Qiu found the jade was surprisingly hard. It was perhaps because they contained too much Qi of Heaven and Earth.
Ordinary digging equipment could dig out the jade, but the working efficiency was very low.
“Do I have to cut it with internal Qi?”
Fang Qiu put down the drilling equipment with a wry smile and moved his internal Qi to cover his hands, trying to dig by using his palms as blades. ????????????????e????????. ????????????
After excavating for a while, he found his palms were much handier than any ordinary digging equipment, though it was still a little difficult to do it.
“This work requires too much internal Qi!” ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novelenglish.net . (f)ire
While digging, Fang Qiu noticed his internal Qi was being consumed at a rapid pace.
In order to use his internal Qi to mine with his bare hands, he had to get his internal Qi under strict control and turn his internal Qi into Sword Qi to make it easier for him to mine the jade.
This way of mining distinctly increased the consumption of his internal Qi.
However, just when Fang Qiu was stumped, the surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth suddenly surged into his body and began replenishing his internal Qi that was being consumed by the mining.
He was a little slow, yet he maintained a certain speed.
“Great. Now I can dig while cultivating.”
Fang Qiu grinned with pleasure.
He re-cultivated and elevated himself to a ninth-class guru with two opened meridians. Therefore, he could naturally absorb the Qi of Heaven and Earth around him more effectively than ordinary ninth-class Martial Superiors. Better still, the Qi of Heaven and Earth in this place was excessively abundant, so he could use it while recuperating.
Soon, Fang Qiu’s palms hacked one piece of jade after another down to the ground.
“With this speed, I should be done digging in fifteen or sixteen days.”
Since Fang Qiu had measured the width and depth of the whole mine and approximated the output of the mine, he knew how much time he needed to finish the mining process.
Then, he began to mine day and night.
Each time he accumulated enough jade, he would carry these jade pieces to the lakeside, cover them with the snow-white tarpaulin, and turn back to his work.
Fang Qiu dug crazily.
At the same time, Fang Qiu had been practicing all the while. He cultivated the consumption and absorption of internal Qi and tried to gain better control over his internal Qi while digging the mine.
Above all, he constantly processed his internal Qi’s all-round cultivation while mining.
The rich Qi of Heaven and Earth really enriched the unique environment of the jade mine. It would be an awful waste if he didn’t utilize it to the fullest.
Fang Qiu estimated that he could achieve the ninth-class Completion Realm with two opened meridians at this cultivation speed while digging up all the jade here.
While he mined frantically, days slipped by. Immersed in cultivation, Fang Qiu didn’t feel bored at all.
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
During the past seven days, the jade on the bank of the cold lake had piled up like a hill.
He guessed there were tens of tons of jade at least.
But Fang Qiu didn’t stop digging.
Since he had begun it, he should complete it all at once. Otherwise, it would not be so easy the next time he came because he might be targeted by others.
…
During this week, a young man appeared and attracted the attention of all the people in Wulin.
Well, what had happened was…
In merely seven days, this young man defeated seven experts who ranked from tenth to fourth on the Young and Talented Martial Arts Practitioner List.
What was even more terrifying was that…
These seven experts were all defeated by this young man with one move!
When the young man was about to fight with the fifth talent on the list, Zhang Jiu and Ma Jincheng, the first ones to be challenged, couldn’t refrain from posting a question on the Wulin online forum to ask where he was from.
However…
No one knew the answer.
After that, the other defeated geniuses also sent messages to inquire about his background. At the same time, many Wulin people, who had witnessed the whole competition, publicized what they had seen at the fighting scene on the Wulin online forum.
The news got around.
All the people in Wulin, including the heads of the four clans, eight factions, and sixteen sects, focused their attention on the young man who suddenly appeared from nowhere.
He was now Diwu Mingchuan’s biggest concern!
It was because the young man had announced on the Wulin online forum that he would challenge Diwu Qian next!
On the Wulin online forum, the young man finally published a post after defeating seven people in a row.
“Young Talented Practitioners? Are You All So Weak?”
The title of the post was full of sarcasm.
Its content was straightforward.
“Next, Diwu Qian.”
“You can come to me. Or I’ll look for you!”
When netizens saw the two simple sentences, they all got a rude shock.
Diwu Qian?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was the darling daughter of the Diwu Great Family, one of the four prominent families.
Diwu Qian came from an influential family. And she was a woman. How could this young man be so shameless as to threaten a girl with words?
…
His appearance gave rise to much discussion among the four great families.
In the capital, people in the Qian family were talking about this matter.
“Who on earth is this young man?”
“The top ten figures on the Young and Talented Martial Arts Practitioner List are above eighth-class. Feng Yiming, ranked fourth, has even broken through to the ninth-class, but even he was defeated with only one move by this mysterious young man?”
“Two years ago, John Doe emerged, and now there is another young man of unknown origin. Why is Wulin a little different from what we’ve remembered?”
“It seems that Wulin is getting volatile again.”
…
The Zhan family also began taking this issue seriously.
“Another young man?”
Hearing the news, Elder Zhan was slightly stunned and said, “In Huaxia Wulin, few could crush a ninth-class expert with only one move. Only Half-step Gurus or even more powerful masters could do it. Otherwise, it’s impossible.”
“But how could one more Half-step Guru appear overnight in Wulin?”
…
The Xi family also paid attention to this problem.
“A young man who is at least a Half-step Guru?”
“There’s no news from John Doe or the ancient ruin. Why is Wulin already in chaos?”
Xi Fengling heard the news, and her face instantly became as solemn as when she first learned about John Doe, a man she knew nothing about who rose suddenly to fame in Wulin.
The head of the Xi family had the most spies in Wulin. Xifeng Ling had sent some of them to investigate the young man’s background carefully, but she received no news even after several days of investigation.
It was as if the young man had appeared out of thin air, which made her inexplicably nervous.
…
“Qian’er, what do you think of this battle?”
In Nanjiang, Diwu Mingchuan of the Diwu Great Family sat in the lobby and said, “If you are willing to fight, I’ll root for you. But if you don’t want to do it, you shouldn’t be afraid of any threats with my support!”
“I want to fight.”
Diwu Qian nodded and said, “I’ve improved my strength a lot after several rounds of cultivation in seclusion. Honestly, I’d like to test my real strength.”
“Hmm.”
Diwu Mingchuan nodded understandingly and smiled. “I suppose you’re quite close to being a Half-step Guru. If you choose to fight, you can take this chance to pace yourself. Don’t worry, just go and fight. I’ll always be here for you!”
“Um.”
Diwu Qian nodded.
In the meantime, all the routes leading to the ancient ruin from Sala City were under the scrutiny of many spies sent by the four great families. However, after monitoring for so long, none collected any helpful information or clues. There was no news from John Doe or the ancient relic.
The ancient ruin seemed to have quieted entirely down!
