Chapter Four Hundred and Eighty Three – Elder Shen!
When Tenth Grade pulled a little person clad in white, who was about the same size as himself, in front of Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo’s chin almost dropped to the ground.
“Please, Master, bestow a name!” Tenth Grade said gravely.
Zuo Mo curiously looked at the little person in white. The little person in white seemed slightly embarrassed and hid behind Tenth Grade with a timid gaze. The little person in white was the same size as Tenth Grade, the face as handsome and exquisite but the person in white had softer features than Tenth Grade. Tenth Grade’s features were much harsher This caused the two to have completely different presences, the little person in white gave off the feeling of being sunny while Tenth Grade presence was cold.
After staring for a while, Zuo Mo still could not figure out if the little person in white was male or female.
Zuo Mo pointed at the little person in white and turned to look at Tenth Grade, “He is your … …”
“Brother!” Tenth Grade’s expression was stern and serious.
Oh, so it was a male, such a pity … … oh, why do I find it a pity … …
“Then he is named Sunshine.” Zuo Mo’s poor imagination meant he really could not think of a better name.
“Sunshine … …”Tenth Grade tilted his head, his little face serious. He felt this name was pretty good, “Many thanks for the name, Master!”
Sunshine gave a sunny smile.
The two quickly flew off and disappeared to play somewhere else.
Zuo Mo shook his head and continued his plan of getting rich.

In the cave, Gu Ming Gong looked at the insect corpses on the ground and his entire person seemed to be struck by lightning.
“Da … … Daren … …” The trembling in his voice was clear, his tongue seemed to be tied as he stammered out a question, “Who … … killed all of these?”
“Oh, my ling beasts,” Zuo Mo said. He then asked enthusiastically, “Can these insect corpses be used to forge black wave leaf armor?”
Gu Ming Gong was stunned. Killed by ling beasts? Heavens, those were powerful ling beasts!
Deep granite leaf insects were fifth-grade ling beasts! Their hard armor was unable to be damaged by flying swords below fifth-grade! Deep granite leaf insects basically had no weakness. They were not afraid of poison, fire, or cold and they lived in groups which made them extremely difficult to deal with.
He picked up an insect corpse from the ground. This deep granite leaf insect had died long ago, and there wasn’t a single mark on the outer shell. But when he opened the outer shell, there seemed to be a sword wound that went through the entire body of flesh.
Such a powerful sword essence!
Such a powerful ling beast!
Gu Ming Gong recovered from his shock. “Yes, it can be forged! It can be forged! This subordinate has never seen so many deep granite leaf insects before, Daren, you may laugh but this subordinate has really had a fright.”
Hearing that the black wave leaf armor could be made, the rock in Zuo Mo’s heart landed and his face was joyful.
This could be used for many black wave leaf armors! Maybe each person could get one!
“Daren, have you explored the cave?” Gu Ming Gong suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo thought, was there something else in the cave. He hurriedly asked, “No, what is it?”
Gu Ming Gong explained, “Daren may not know that the deep granite leaf insect has a special characteristic, they like to consume earth metals to help them strengthen their armor. So deep granite leaf insects usually reside on top of mines. Daren may want to inspect the area. If this mine could be found, it would be of great benefit.”
Hearing this, Zuo Mo’s heart was moved.
For any power, mines were extremely important as it meant they had a steady income. No matter how rich a power was, if it did not have a steady income, this power would not be able to survive for long. Turtle Island had very good conditions, no matter if it was the ling fields, the cold silkworm cave, those were all very constant incomes.
If they could have a mine, that would be the icing on the cake.
Zuo Mo decided to explore the cave, and this incident also reminded him that there were many unexplored caves on the island. There were probably many secrets that he had not found. After he finished exploring this cave, he would definitely explore the entire island.
The cold silkworm cave had not been completely explored, the inside was bone-achingly cold , which made it hard to travel in.
Out of consideration for safety, Zuo Mo did not enter the deeper parts of the deep granite leaf insect cave alone and pulled everyone along to explore it. As expected, they found a vein of rock grain steel.
Rock grain steel was fourth-grade material and widely used in making all kinds of talismans so it was highly expensive.
Rock grain steel vein, tens of thousands of mu of ling fields, cold silkworm cave, Turtle Island was far wealthier than any other sect in Xu Ling City.
But only the few that explored with Zuo Mo knew about the vein. There were many people on the island now and the situation outside was unstable. If the news of this vein was leaked, people would likely immediately attack.
It was better to be low-key in this time.

Xu Ling Sect was disturbed everyday by xiuzhe that furiously inquired to the location of the Sun Shen Hall. Lu Zhen and the others could not escape.
“Ah, when will the top send people!” Huang Jie groaned, his face in a grimace. If it wasn’t that the others were wary of the power behind the two of them, the xiuzhe would have torn the two of them to pieces!
“Soon.” Lu Zhen pretended to be calm.
At this time, the oil lamp on the table suddenly exploded with light, and an authoritative voice sounded inside the room.
“Come forth to welcome!”
Lu Zhen and Huang Jie paused and then both showed overjoyed expressions. They flew out together. Lu Zhen took out a little jade chime and lightly tapped it twice.
