139 Chapter 139 Metal Element Mine Core (1/2)

Zong Shou looked on for a good long while in disbelief. Was he blessed by the heavens? For him to actually have such good luck...

He was just trying to dig out the mine core of a Grade Two mind stone mine, and had actually obtained Purple Spirit Iron, and then bumped into such a treasure.

Darkness Blooming Cereus; just listening to its name, one would know that such a spirit grass needed to grow in a dark environment.

Based on what Zong Shou knew, such a spiritual grass not only needed large amounts of spiritual energy, it also couldn't be exposed to the sun. If it came into contact with it, it would die immediately.

After it bore fruit it would need to be exposed to the air to bloom. It would only be able to live for ten breaths before withering immediately.

This item couldn't increase cultivation nor soul power, but the seeds from this plant had a special ability which sent all spirit masters into a frenzy.

Even he was tempted by it!

His breathing couldn't help but become thicker as Zong Shou pinched his arm once more, and only under this piercing pain was he able to keep his senses.

Although the Darkness Blooming Cereus was good, it could only be harvested after the flower bloomed. There was one day before this flower bloomed, a full day before he could get his hands on it.

Once again he controlled those stone puppets to dig down, but this time he carefully avoided the plant and went down on the sides.

As he had expected, this area was where the mine core was at. After digging for another four hours, he obtained over ten Grade Three mind stones, making him smile broadly. Their elements were different; many were water element, due to the underwater stream, next most common were earth element mind stones, which took up a small portion.

Mind stones were produced where earth energy was thick. No matter which mind stone mine it was, it would definitely have earth element mind stones.

The last and final mind stone mine core should be buried beneath this tunnel, roughly three hundred feet away. It was a full eight hundred feet below the ground.

When Zong Shou found the item, he had been digging for a total of eight hours.

This mine core was different from the mind stones. It was silver in color, like a swan egg, no different from any normal stone. However, he was able to feel the large amount of spiritual energy within it, four times that of normal mind stones.

”It actually is a metal element mine core…”

Zong Shou's eyes once again revealed a shamed expression. This time he had actually guessed wrongly once again!

The many water and earth element mind stones dug out before made him sure that this mine core should definitely be one of those two types.

In the end it was actually the metal element, which had nothing to do with them.

”That's right! As they say, metal gives birth to water, this place is also where earth veins are thick and also that Purple Spirit Iron ore. I am too inexperienced, which was why I got it wrong!”

Knowledge gained from reading from books and real life experiences were two different matters.

Using his spirit to feel it, this iron core didn't give him much surprise. The metal element spiritual energy was abundant within it, but he could only deduce two relatively stronger spiritual energy veins.

The so-called mine core was no different from the Spiritual Vein Pearl.

The only difference would be that the former was formed naturally. Many spiritual veins gathered in the ground and reacted with one another, which would produce mind stone veins. The mine core was formed by many spiritual veins crashing into one another and even merging together. Each medium-sized mind stone mine could have one to many mine cores, and there was also chance that there were none at all.

As for a Spiritual Vein Pearl, that was totally manmade.

He could feel Little Gold's reaction getting more and more intense on his left hand. Zong Shou couldn't help but smile. This little fellow was really lucky today!

The metal element mine core left him slightly disappointed. Only water, lightning, and fire elements, crafting them into a Spiritual Vein Pearl would help him greatly.

However, these two metal element veins was not bad, either. He could directly merge them with that Grade Two metal element Spiritual Vein Pearl. After it reached Grade Four, it could barely reach the quality needed to become an external pill.

The abundance of spiritual energy here was not much worse than some spiritual lands. A large portion was because of the Darkness Blooming Cereus and that Purple Spirit Iron stone, which swallowed up a huge amount of spiritual energy. If not, this mind stone mine wouldn't only be Grade Two and it could even be a Grade higher…
